PLAIN WORDS FOR SENSIBLE SAC
RAMENTANS.

There is an excellent prospect that the
cobble will ''go" from Sacramento busi-
ness streets, and bituminous rock take
its place. If so, not only the people but
the dumb animals will have reason to be
thankful. 1t will cost money to make
the change, but it will come back with
large interest 1t will lessen street.
sprinkling and street-cleaning expenses
siderable items.
But there is one other reform that
should tread upon the heels of the first
that is abolition of the rookeries. All
of these are such eyesores that they
might be condemned as public nuisances
and the verdict have judicial sanction.
Some of them occupy foremost corners,
and the frontage on both streets is bad.
one of the owners of parcel of shanties
on chief business street replied to our
protest against the nuisance maintained:
Il get as much rent as if it were brick,
iron and glass" "That's the matter'': it
is the greed for the dollar that hangs
about the neck of this fair city. 1t is be-
cause of these huts that weare reproached
with the criticism that the beautiful resi-
dence sections of Sacramento are like
jewels in gross settings. 1t is because of
these huts that rent so well that we
are charged with being behind the age
and non-progressive. But the charge we
know to be untrue. Sacramentans are pro-
gressive, public-spirited, and fired by
honest ambitions for their city; we are
simply unfortunate in having among us
some who do not merit our companion
ship.
Not only is the business frontage of the
two chief streets of trade disgraced by
lot of tumble-down affairs, but there are
whole rows of one-story brick buildings
that would be respectable fronts if
couple of stories with modern front fit
tings were added, and there is demand
for every room and floor so built, If
owners cannot now add full stories. thew
can at least do as one has, build false
fronts-anything to remove the reproach
that these low, ragged and belittling
houses call down upon the city, and that
more than anything else gives Sacra-
mento bad name.
We need the battle cry of reform, "Up
with factories, on with street improve
meut," but to add to it, Down with the
rookeries." If we must endure them.
then we must accept the consequences.
If we must yield to the greed of the rent
gstherers, we must accept the reproach.
1t is simply impossible to make an at
tractiva city with a white mans China
town sprinkled up and down its chief
highways. Bitumen for the business
streets is well, excellent, neces-
sary, and we hope to sees it
down inside OF three months, but
it will be like putting bridal slippers
upon the feet of a SLOUGH. If there is no
other way to bring these nuisance main
tainers to trial. let the Fire Warden and
the Trustees make inquiry if there be
any virtue in putting rods into ordinance
pickle.

the world may learn who it is that has so

the world may learn who it is that has so
disgraced American citizenship.
Every group of people in our midst is
at liberty Ito celebrate any day and all
fete days, civic or religious, that they
may see fit. No one objects to their doing
SO. Respectful regard for their right is
manifest by all good citizens-nay, they
go beyond that, and aid and contribute to
most of such celebrations. But when it
comes to giving official recognition. such
as the Chicago Aldermen voted, the thing
sinks into the slum of the disgraceful and
must excite the contempt of every decent
foreign-born resident in the nation.

A THING OF BEAUTY.

Something of Some New Fences Which
Will Be Placed in Durham.
Messrs. John S. Frederick and A. S.
Robinson, representing the North Caro-
lima Hedge and Wire Fence company.
with headquarters in Asheville, are here
to introduce the novel and beautiful de
signs which this company is now getting
up for handsome and inexpensive fences,
and have already several large contracts
in the city.
By new and improved methods of
growing and training the osage orange,
with an invisible but durable wire sup
port, a hedge is grown in two years
which for beauty and strength is far
ahead of the ornamental iron fences,
such as are generally used, and possesses
the advantage of growing more beautiful
with the years
Mr.. Frederick, as manager and Mr.
Robinson as agent, are both gentlemen
who know their business and who pro
pose to see that all work is thoroughly
done and that all who deal with them
are pleased with their investment. All
planting and placing of wires is done
under their personal supervision, and if
any part of hedge fails to grow and
adjust itself to the supports, they return
as often as required until all is satisfac
tory.
Photographs of such fence in all its
different stages of development and the
final result, can be seen by calling on
either Of the gentlemen named, who are
at the Hopkins house and who will take
pleasure in furnishing any information
and quoting you figures that will place
this handsome and desirable hedge fence
within reach of every man who owns
home and who wants TO protect it. If
you are figuring on fence of any kind.

FIRST DAY

Business.

Fast Driver Comes to Grief and Several
Other Cases Were Tried This
Morning.

Mayor Peay was at the mayors office
promptly at 10 o'clock this morning
The docket was large First on the list
was the state against Walter Bradsher
and Rhodes Herndon 1t seems that
Walter and Rhodes were discussing some
question and warmed up as they talked.
Finally, as arguments sometimes do, there
was misunderstanding. Herndon told
Bradsher that he was a liar. At thi:
Bradsher went for him. They were hav
ing gentle scrap when Chief Woodall
took Bradsher away. Somehow they got
together again. Then Tip Hopkins came
up, as he said, to part them-to get
Bradsher raway-Bradsher being nephew
Of Hopkins. Hopkins says that some
one knocked his hand against HerndOn
Herndon swOre that Hopkins struck him
several blows and this was corroborated
by Mr.. Powell and Mr.. Durham. Hern-
don said that Hopkins was responsible
for all the bruises he received-tha
| Bradsher did not hit him to hurt Hern-
don was being held while Hopkins got
in his work. Hopkins claimed differ
emily. Anyhow his honor fined them So
each.
The whole affair is to be regretted.
Next a colored driver of the express
company was fined So for fast driving.
| A few other cases ended the first days
work of Mayor Peay.
