COUNTY DIVISION.

II is perhaps needless to say that
there may be county divisions which
prove advantageous 10 all concerned.
But In many cases the compelling
motives are open to suspicion. County
division, among other things, results
in more offices. There are fifiy-fOur
counties in this state, California;
each with its complete sci Of Officers.
II we divide any large number of
them there will I've a multiplication Of
offices which will prove to be very
bur,lensOme. California at the present
time has as many officials to the
square mile as she can well struggle
under. Perhaps there is no state in
the union of equal population that
has so many persons ON its payroll,
directly or indirectly.
The territory that now gets along
with one sheriff, one clerk and one
set Of officials, by division will have
TO support two shrriffs, two clerks and
two tax-eaters of every name and
style. These interchangeable searchers
for the official dolce far niente are
hrlped along by other Influences.
The new county has to supply itself
with new public buildings. /. must
have new iails and new courthouses.
Ia these there is an infinity OF profit
able jnhs. Public building is the
placer mining Of the period. In the
hands Of boodlers truly great it can
be made to yield the handsomest re-
turns. And back Of all is the real
estate speculation which the founding
of new county seats promotes 0per.
aiors with long heads usually acquire
nice corner lots in the new official
county center, long before division
had ever heen lisped. -Exchange

NOT OUR WAY.

We notice that an Ohio editor has
declined the nomination Of represent
alive to I'll a vacancy IN the state
Legislature. Not only that but he
gave 1t as his opinion that no editor
should accept political office or any
sort of favor from a railroad or other
corporation. b. looking at map Of
the United States we perceive that
Ohio is bounded on the North by
Michigan and Lake Ere, on the East
by Pennsylvania, on the South by
West Virginia and Kentucky. and OF.
the West by Indiana, but how such
AN editor as that is bounded we shall
not attempt TO figure.
BY working a potato patch on
shares during his off days and Sun
days. and 10y making his wife 60 bare
foot through the winter and cut her
own corn in the summer. he may
manage TO keep his head above water
in OHIO, but he must not let the west
ern fever get hold of him. He
couldn't exist for two weeks out here,
even when ronts are in season and at
their cheapest Years ago, when our
eyebrows were silken and our feet
tender, We had a half-formed idea
that it was the duty Of an editor to
boost everybody else into public view
and remain in the background him
self. We even decided that a rail-
road pass, good from San Francisco
TO New York, might bias his opinion
Of roadheds, locomotives and side
tracks. We even began our editorial
career by refusing to pay Probate
Judge bride of $50 TO get 5000
worth Of fat advertising.
Ii is needless to remark that we nc
longer resembling the jack rabbit 10
appearance, nor do we do business on
tie Ohio principle We take every.
thing in the shape of pass offered
US. We miss no opportunity to make
a public speech. We ache for office
and get it-three or four Of them
If there is any head to the table at /
banquet We are there. We boost our
selves first and the pnblic afterwar,i
II We were offered the place Of Min
lister TO England tomorrow We woulc
take 1t quicker'n scat. In our opinion
there's nothing too good for an editor
and We frankly admit that when WI
hear Of case like that in Ohio VIZ
feel like writing to the emery galoo
aud asking what reason he has FOL

politely enough: Pardon us but can't

: and some food, in the kings nance"
The request was practically IN order,
and without more ado they marched
into the house, their hateful scarlet
, coats dripping with water and their
boots heavy with mud.
Though trembling with fear the girl
managed to conceal her agitation and
was inwardly rejoicing that their
stay would be short one. She ordered
a servant to bring food and drink for
them and then settled herself with a
book in the corner. When they had
finished eating one of them brought
brandy from his saddle bags and they
all began to drink freely.
The oldest OF the intruders was deaf,
and in speaking to him his comrades
raised their voice to an unpleasant
pitch. Before an hour had passed they
were all drunk and used such vulgar
language that Polly swept from the
room, her face flushed with anger and
disgust. Even in her room the noise of
their carousing reached her. 1t was al
ready dark and, to her relief. she heard
the officers getting ready to depart.
One by one they filed out of the front
door, but just as they were mounting
their horses, which they had tethered
to the fence, one Of them turned to the
deaf Engiishman and said: $50 back and
see what time it is by that big clock
in the corner" The drunken fellow
staggered up the steps and into the
house. ''---, it's stopped, and, by
the Lord Harry, it will never run
again." he 1nuttered. and taking his
heavy saber he ran it several times
through the dial into the delicate
works. Then, as if not satisfied with
the damage he had done, he drove it
twice through the polished panels of
the door.
There was a smothered groan from
the interior of the clock and cracking
of hinges which did not reach the
dulled ears of the royalis:, and he was

Rismarek.s Great Friend.

The late Baron BleickroedAr, who
was the acknowledged chief of the
Prussian banking world, was one of
the most remarkable of German mill
lionaires. He began life as the owner
of q small brokerage esta blishInent.
One secret of his success was his genius
for using political events TO promote
his ends. lie was the banker Of Ger
man unity. y London paper remarks
that Prince Bismarck used him not
only as political adviser and finaneier.
but in much the same miscellaneous
and semi-contidential and semi-con-
temptuous way that the princess and
mobiles Of Germany had been N tbs
habit of employing toward their court
Jews for centuries. Bleichroedcr was
his anne damnee, his devoted and tactfui
instrument in many q diplomatic en-
terprise, his trustful and sober adviser
in scores of difficult crises. That his
role was far from being limited to
questions OF finance has long been I'M
derstood, and more than once n glimpse
has been afforded the outside public OF
the wide ramifications Of his political
activity.
