A LITTLE THING TO REMEMBER.

The citizens who oppose the removal of
the post awnings along our streets, and
declare that they will resist the orders
made respecting them, through all legal
channels, forget completely that beyond
the line of their lots their deeds give them
no property rights. The street and side
walk space belongs to the people at large
otherwise the municipality of Sacra-
mento.
The erection of structures beyond lot
lines ana over sidewalk space, and sup
ported by posts resting upon the street
curbs, has been only by permission or
suffrance of the municipality, not by any
light possessed by the owner OF adjacent
property. Now whenever the city with
draws the privilege of maintaining
elevated platforms in the street, the
fright" -so-called-to maintain them inn
mediately falls.
If any entertain doubts on this point,
let them examine their deeds and they
will find that they have no title whatever
to exercise any ownership over the side
walk space. That is wholly within the
control of the city corporation. If this
were not soft every property-owner
possessed the right TO erect posts along
the street curbs, and maintain structures
upon them, any sort of a building could
be put up consistent with the fire limit
regulations. A man could extend his
house over the walks out into the street
sixteen feet on the eighty foot streets,
and twenty feet on the one hundred-foot
avenue. Thus every property-owner
throughout the city, though buying but
16O feet of land in depth, would actually
occupy and build upon 176 feet of land.
The street width dedicated to the uses
of the present and future inhabitants of
the city as public highways" according
to the deed of gift by the locator of the
city, is measured from lot line to lot line
not from curb to curb. Those who resist
the march of improvement in this matter
should pause before they attempt legal
wrestle with the city. and ascertain what
right they have to maintain posts in the
streets when the city orders them re-
moved.

THE hearing of the Government repre-
sentatives by the Behring Sea Board of
Arbitration has ended, and now the con
sultation among the arbitrators begins.
While we believe that the American case
has been ably presented, and that equity
and common human right are with us,
there are reasons to fear that the board
will hold adverse to our position Since
we abandoned the mare cJdusum claim,
and rested our right wholly upon the
natural history of the seal, and the neces-
sity of protecting it while making its
transit from island to island, the proba-
bilities are that the board will hold that
regulations for the fisheries shall be made
by the joint action of the American and
the English Governments. In that case.
if the two cannot agree, there will be
nothing for it but the second arbitration
and it is wholly unlikely that there will
be agreement. It is possible under the
articles of arbitration for the present
board to lay down the groundwork for
the regulations, but it is not probable
that it will do so.

TICKLE ALICH LARSEN.

He Deserts His Wife and Takes Up
With an Adventures.
Alick Larsen, painter and decorator
who had been doing business at $40 X
street, has abandoned his wife and eloped
with a frail woman known as Nellie
Leader. 1t is believed the truant rascal
is in San Francisco.
Larsen's conduct is all the more de-
spicabie because it was the woman now
unfortunately his wife, who sAlt for
him few years ago, and brouglA him
from far-off Sweden to fulfill the hedge
she made him there to become his wife.
After his arrival in this city Larsen en-
deavored to evade his promise of mar
riage, and ran off to San Francisco, but
his intended followed and brought him
back.
In due time they were married, and
have since made their home at 915 T
street. Larsen, however, soon began to
consort with other women, and it is said
frequently abused his faithful wife. He
capped the climax by clipping with the
Leader woman few days ago.
Mrs. Larsen IS heart-broken over her
desertion, and her friends fear she will
permanently lose her reason.

GRAIN BAGS
Prospect of a Shortage of Some Ten
Millions.

Prospect of a Shortage of Some Ten
liz, Millions.
At the last meeting of the Prison Di-
rectors resolution was adopted that
hereafter grain sacks would be sold to
farmers on credit, provided the Attor-
ney-General should decide that such sale
would be lawful.
The grain bag market is very short,
and unless something unforeseen should
occur the farmers will be in predica-
ment. AT present there are not over TO-
O00,0O bags in California, and last year
the Pacific Coast used 81 900, 600. The Brit
ish ship Castle Rock is now out 142 days
from Calcutta with 100000 bags on
board, and the Harland, which is out 167
days from the same place, has 2,500,000
on board. Add these to what is already
on hand and the supply is still 100000
short of the probable demand.
The San Quentin jute mill was closed
down for many months, and the stock on
hand couple of months ago was only
100000 sacks. What it may do this and
next month is an unknown quantity.
Other local factories may manufacture
100000 bags during the season, but their
production is dependent upon the length
of time the material will take in getting
here. Shipments by steamer take from
sixty to ninety days from Calcutta, so
the supply from that point cannot be de-
pended upon.

EX-DIRECTOR of the Mint Leech has
contributed a most interesting paper to
the current financial debate. He holds
that the Act of 1873, dropping the silver
dollar, simply recognized an existing
fact, namely that the coin formed no ap-
preciable part of our circulating medium.
From 1872 to 1873 all the silver dollars we
issued were only SOB, 238 pieces, none of
which were in circulation when the Act
passed. In 1872 the law authorized the
unrestricted mintage of silver and gold.
on the basis of l of gold to Is of
silver. But that ratio was not in ac-
cordance with the commercial value of
the two metals. Gold being under
valued did not circulate, so it went abroad
in exchange for commodities at the
commercial value of gold, the pure gold
in the coins. In 1884 (and supplemental
to it in 1880, law was passed reducing
the quantity of gold in the dollar, and the
ratio of coinage was fixed at l to IL. 9S8.
still the change did not accord to the
commercial value of the two metals. for
silver was under-valued, so it went
abroad, and from 1884 to 1878 our only
metallic currency was gold. But in
1873 Congress dropped the silver dollar
from coins that might be minted, be-
cause. as has been stated, it bad become
obsolete. At that time the country had
paper currency, and its depreciation was
measured by gold. So the law Of 1873
was the logical sequence of the Acts of
1884 and 1887. These Acts were con-
frmed by that of 1858 making fractional
silver coins subsidiary.

The Louisville CouTieT-JOurnal regrets
that the indications are that the free coin
age advocates will not enter Congress
upon the financial debate with the cool
OF reason and free from hot blood and in
tolerance. Had the editor of the Courier
Journal been witness to the debates at
the late Transmississippi Congress at
Ogden he would not have expressed any
surprise at the heat of the free coiners.
AT that convocation they were well rep
resented, and more intolerant lot of in
telligent people we have never read or
heard of. much less met.
When the Kentucky paper talks about
the necessity for calm, cool elaboration
among group of radical free coiners, he
speaks of the impossible. So far as we
have observed them and read of them,
they fall into that greatest Of errors, i'm
agining that denunciation is strength.

over their teeth and flow from their sem
fences constantly-at least that was the
order of debate at Ogden, and it is much
so in most of the free silver literature
that comes our way.
The C0a1Ter-JOu3maE, after seriously
invoking calm and reason, and cool
blood, and decent language, and common
courtesy to prevail over the hosts in the
coming session of Congress, warns the
free-coiners that there is no use of con-
tinuing unwhipped after you are once
thoroughly trounced, and begs the silver
men to yield gracefully so soon as it is
clear there is no longer any hope for
them, and, above all, to cease calling
their neighbors who differ with them
'conspirators' and other unpleasant
names. and to pay decent regard to the

is precisely the reverse. He says that the
extradition treaties themselves uniformly
place in the same category political
offenses land acts connected with such
offenses." Nothing is better settled, he
continues, than the principle that when
an otfense is incidental to or connected
with political act it partakes of the char
acter of that act and does not afford
basis of extradition. 1t is quite true that
this provision could not be abused to Sc
cure the rendition of fugitives whom this
Government recognizes as political
offenders. Participants in attempts on
the life of the head of nation are not rec
