will little more than lay the foundation
of building worthy of our great State,
and that, should he successfully beguile
the voters, millions more will be expend-
ed IN his city, drawn from the pockets of
all the taXpayers.
While wise local pride is commend
able and an element OF great strength,
there is rampant everywhere an out
growth of this spirit that is utterly vic
lous. 1t Is ever ready, at the slightest
opportunity, TO seize any advantage,
wholly regardless of the best interests of
the entire community. This is the spirit
that has succeeded in plastering normal
schools all over the State, when there was
no need whatever for them, and to the
detriment of our school system, instead
OF concentrating on one and raising that
to the highest efficiency.
And now the claws of this monster are
liked on the Capital, trying to drag it
from its foundations. In the fight that
is coming on this spirit will seek to cajole
and subsidize the press wherever it may
be possible, and has already presented us
with the spectacle of engaging in revelry
with those legislators who sought 10
divert the wealth of our State to its
clutches.
The view of the State itself and its
action in this matter should be in keeping
with Its dignity and strength. Its ludg-
1nent is to be expressed through the bal
lot of the Individual citizens, each one of
whom, before casting that vote, should
endeavor to bring strongly to his con-
seriousness what the State really is, how
loyal his allegiance should be, and en-
tlrely strip his mind of the petty consld-
erations that so generally prevail. The
light and hppant way in which many peo-
pie talk OF this and other questions relat-
Ing TO State policy shows that they have
no deep-seated convictions, and that their
| thinking on this subject is of the shall
lowest kind.
1t should be assumed that in placing
the Capital where it is, adequate consider
ations prevailed, and its location should
not be changed without reasons that inl-
peratively demand removal. Our State
cannot afford to cater TO and stimulate
this grasping spirit Of local envy. If the
State Capital can so easily be tossed from
one place to another, it would be quite in
keeping to see the success of this move
ment followed by efforts of like kind to
secure our State prisons, our asylums, or
the University OF California.
Moreover, from an economic stand
point, 1t will be an utter waste of capital
and labor to erect a second building
when we possess one already conven-
iently located and perfectly suited to it's
purpose. The legitimate channels of bus
mess and development will be drained,
and the growth of the State checked to
just the extent of the investment in
| this useless enterprise.
These grounds, therefore, seem to war
rant, when the final vote is recorded, a
stern condemnation of the legislators
who have so tritled with the interests of
the State, and a crushing blow to the un-
brldled spirit of local aggrandiZement.

people who ultimately become chronic

Shall We Move the state Capital ?

Now that the first shock of astonish-
meut has subsidized over the hasty action
Of the Legislature in removing the Capi-
tai, one can look around a little and get
his bearings. The question seems to di-
vide itself into three parts. What Judg-
ment shall be passed on the action OF the
legislators? What motives are inspiring
San Jose? And how are the interests of
the State itself affected?
The legislators must be judged solely
by the motives which inspired their
votes, and any argument since devel-
oped cuts no figure They are casting
around now to nnd something SubStan-
tlal to rest upon, but there seems to have
been nothing more than hasty impulse
andirritatlOn which inspired their first
vote, and in agreeing to abandon the
$5,0O0,0O0 or S6,0O0,00J that our State has
invested at Sacramento they seem to
have been falthlesS to the trust that was
placed in their hands. Indeed. methods
of reasoning were allowed to prevail re-
galding the interests of our State which
no sane person would apply TO his own
affairs.
Does any member of that Legislature

ings were his own private property, he
would have thrown 1t away, like child
ish bauble, for such trivial considerations

voter
1t is urged, however, that the building
is not to be discarded, but that it will be
available for the use of some other pub
lie institution. But in that case do not
the very arguments advanced for the re-
moval OF the Legislature hold with ten
fold force? II our lawmakers cannot
endure the climate for sixty days during
the winter, W hen the Sacramento weather
is practically the same as elsewhere
throughout California, would they con-
sign any branch of our public charges TO
remain there Tor the entire twelve
months?
The motives that influence San Jose are
clear and perfectly understood. Her citi-
zens will fight to retain the advantage
that they have gained in order that the
place may become more important. But

TO YOUTH
Choose a Calling, Young People, ant
stick to 1t.

~IlCh W 1Ls
Find out what nature designed you to
be-whether a doctor, lawyer, preacher,
trader or mechanic-and strive assidu-
ously to qualify yourself for tho dis
charge Of the duties of your calling. Be
careful not to make hasty impulse, says
William Mathews in Hd3per'S Young
People, a shallow temporary liking for a
real bent or a deep love for vocation;
and, on the other hand, when you have
pursued any business for some years, and
found that it has many difficulties, trials
and perplexities Of which you had not
dreamed, do not hastily abandon it for
another-thus throwing away most Of the
knowledge and experience acquired
with the expectation of finding your path
way in the latter strewn with roses with
out any thorns. All callings that are
worth pursuing are alike in this-that not
one of them is easy. Only after repeated
failures, following the most earnest and
persistent efforts to succeed, should a
change be made. Remember, too, that
those kinds of business which pay best
in the long run are the slowest in begin
ming to yield a return. Success in them
is like the growth of the aloe-for long
time slow and imperceptible. For years
you perceive no change: then all at once,
when the time comes, there is crisis,
| and it shoots up a stalk ten or fifteen feet
high, hung with innumerable flowers.
Stick, then, if possible. to your chosen
calling, lest it be said Of you, as of a
character in Owen Meredith's Lucille"
With irresolute finger he knocked at each one
or the doorways of life but abided at none;
His course by each star that crossed II was set,
And whatever he did he was sure to regret.

Vanilla Favored Tea.

On some parts of the European conti-
nent a small piece Of vanilla is put int
the teapot, together with the tea. The
fiavors are said to blend well, just as in
Russia you take your tumbler of tea with
a slice of lemon, instead of milk, and as
in France or Germany you add a tea
spoonful of arrack or rum in your thin
bleful Of after-dinner coffee.
But there is yet daintier way of TAX
ing your vanilla flavor with your tea.
And this rufine manner is British, and
not continental When the tea or coffee
service is being made vanilla flavor is
added to the china when it is IN the pot
ter's hands, and thus it is baked into
every article of the set.
Whenever afterwards the tea things get
hot as they are being used, they exhale
faint aroma of vanilla, which, to the
fastidious, may be preferable to the
actual infusion into beverages OF the
piece OF square stem or the vanilla aro-
matica-

ADJUSTMENTS.

The New York Stock Company this
evening enters upon the last week but
one of its engagement at the Clunie
Opera-house. The play will be the
standard ante-bellum drama, "The
Octoroon," dramatic picture of the old
slavery days, more sensational and thrill
ing than any other. 1t is a better ar
ranged and more artistic play
than it is possible to con-
struct out of Uncle TOMS Cabin" For
thirty years it has held its place upon
the stage and has lost none of its thrilling
interest by reason OF age. 1t is a drama
the New York Stock Company is admira-
bly, lifted for, and which it ought to be able
to present with great deal of vigor and
spirit. The present generation has op-
portunity only at rare intervals in later
years to witness the production of this
thrilling drama, which is rich in the best
sentiment of Southern life in slavery
times, while vividly presenting the evils
and bitter wrongs of a system of bond

wages in the country. This is a known
fact. If they are to be brought out of this
1t must be by slow process. Everybody
is willing that "the Chinaman must &c, -
but we tell our politicians now that they
must not violently disturb our labor
market-must not cripple the industries
of this State. 1t Is not good for white la
Dor to do it.
Los Gatos NetCS: There has been
much talk of retaliation on the part OF
China if we enforce the Geary law. China
Is sovereign in her territory, as we are in
ours. If she does not like the presence
OF Americans there she can order them
out. But that does not affect the duty of
the Administration to execute an Act of
Congress, and we do not think that Presi-
dent Cleveland will allow it to have any
influence on his course.
Facaville Reporter: There are fruit
growers i'll this valley who have had the
same set of Chinese working for them for
years, who are truly experts in the
handling OF fruit. These and many others
Will OF course feel the loss of such help.
But the absurdity of the Chinese claim
that they are the only beings who can do
the work in fruit is apparent to all who
nave witnessed one good white man do
more work, and do it better, than two
Cinnamon. While it is a fact that the i'm
mediate effect ofdeportation will be detri-
mental TO our valley, no one can fail to
see that the future will prove it to be the
greatest blessing ever known.
Lodi Appeal: The question of allowing
Europe and China to make of the United
States the dumping ground tor their

matter Of plutocratic interest backed by
the controlling influence of the churches

The San Francisco Post, referring to the

Difference Between Him and the
Journalist and Editor.
After his lecture before the journalistic
class at Cornell University a sophomore
asked Eli Perkins when he became a
journalist.
Never" said Eli, "but 1 hope that
after twenty years. more experience to
become newspaper man."
well, what Is the ditterence?' asked
the sophomore.
"Just this, my son." said Eli. "a cal
low reporter calls himself a journalist.
AS George Welshons says, in his first
tadpole stage, when his head is swelled,' ,
he is a journalist. If he finally shows
great brain and industry, and escapes the
tool-killer. he may become a reporter.
After years OF study and toll, and when
his brain is stuffed with wisdom, wit and
discretion enough to kill his own edi-
torials and make up a sixteen-page Sun
day edition, then l say hos a newspaper
man.
Then this is as high in the profession
as he can get?"
"Yes, he IS now at the pinnacle. BY
and by, when he gets lazy and stiff and
position OF editor"
AN editor is a decayed newspaper man
with bunions on his brain, chi!blains on
his heart, corns in his ears and warts and
dyspepsia Oh his liver. The business of
the editor is to sleep up town all day and
at night he prowls around a newspaper
Office, and at midnight he takes blue
pencil and assassinates every bright and
readable idea that the smart reporters
have brought in during the day.
The editor is all epithet, while the re-
porter is all proof. The editor calls man
chicken thief and gets sued for libel,
while the reporter, kodak in hand, in
terviews him while picking off the teath-
ers in the back yard, and the next day
the thief takes whole page advertise
Inent to shut up the newspaper.
NO" continued Eli; 81 hope 1 am a
newspaper man, and l dread the time
when l shall get old and stupid and have
to kill my own bright things which made
the people glad, sold newspapers and
made Americans know me."-Brandon

THROUGH CHERRY ORCHARDS.
Jolly WheeImen Take Spin Through
Vaca Valley.
They Make a Voraclous Attack on Joe
Bassford's Crop, and Have
Good Time Generally.

One of the most enjoyable tours of the
season was made yesterday by the Cap
ital City Wheelman in conjunction with
the cyclists of Davisville, Winters and
Dixon.
The 7:1O train was taken by the Capital
City to Davisville, where they were
joined by Stilling, and the trip con-
tinued a. wheel to Winters.
Ennis and Upson of Sacramento rode
over from Woodland to Davisville in the
morning, and in so doing Ennis lowered
the record between the two points to
thirty-ive minutes. They then joined
the ranks of the other wheelmen.
At Winters they were met by Engle-
hart and Ball, and continued to Vaca-
vile, via Pleasant and Vaca Valleys.
This was something Of departure from
the ordinary runs on the level roads, as
in places it was quite billy, as well as
picturesque, and the riders took advan-
tage of the fine coasts that were present
ing themselves continually.
Passing through Vaca Valley all looked
with longing eyes toward the trees loaded
with cherries, but were not allowed to
help themselves, as they have been in the
habit of doing on the trips to Courtland.
Arriving in Vacaville at II o'clock all
the hungry riders did justice to big
dinner, but not being satisfied with this,
Har pf the company adjourned to Joe
Bassfbrd's fine orchard, where they
feasted on the noted Vaca cherries.
On leaving Vacaville the party was
Joined by Messrs. Hutton, Nagle and
Geary of Dixon, thus increasing the num-
ber of riders to seventeen.
The last fve miles into Dixon were
made over good roads, and a scorch was
the order, in which Ripley had the salts
faction of beating Vanderbilt, over which
he became quite jubilant and match race
between the two is looked forward to
with considerable interest. Vanderbilt
declares that he met with an accident
consisting of having eaten too many
cherries.
Leaving the rest of the party at DIXON,
hubert, Ennis, Readmah, Vanderbilt,
York, t1eilborn and Stilling continued
on to Davisville. Messrs. Ripley, Gault,
Wood, Martin and Upson we're then
taken in hand by the Dixon wheelInen,
who extended them all the hospitalities
possible, showing them their fine half
mile track, on which they intend giving
race meet in the near future.
Taking the 7:24 train from Dixon, the
rest OF the party being picked up at
DavisvIue, Sacramento was reached in
time for another good meal.

PHYSICAL TRAINING.
Its Importance to the Health of Young
Women.


1t is trying period TO girls health
when she steps from the kindergarten
into school. The out-of-door life that she
has enjoyed with her brothers is then
frowned upon as ''coarse and unSdylike
for such large girl" 1t is at this age
that her physical training should begin,
and it should continue through her
school life to keep her in good condition,
her muscles well balanced and her
growth proportionate to her years. In
order that she may be surrounded by the
highest sanitary influences it is very es-
seutial that her director of physical
culture should know thoroughly her con-
ditions, her environment and Inherit
ances, and should also know the amount
of health she possesses so as to regulate
her expenditures of mental strength ac-
cording to her resources.
AS years roll on and she arrives at an
age when custom demands her to be
Gagged III long dresses and her hair twisted

we must double the watch, so to speak,
on her health. The action of many valu-
able muscles is interrupted, others are
neglected altogether, spinal muscles grow
lax, the chest droops, careless posture be-
comes habtual, and consequently the
entire internal structure is to greater or
less extent depressed. At this age society
is allowed to make inroads on hours in
valuable for sleep, and the girl becomes
nervous, petulant, depressed, actually
morbid, and from no fault whatever of
hers. 1t is her environment, and she
cannot be relieved of these unfavorable
influences without thorough physical
training. She cannot be strengthened
when her mind is continually concen-
trated on mental pursuits and hygienic
principles ignored.-Mrs. Henry Ward
Beecher in Godey's.
