A MILLION AND OVER.

The people of Sacramento having been
indebted in the large sum of $1,573, 600
principal, with interest at and per
cent, have been paying as steadily as
they could, and to this date have paid out
because of that debt over 50, 900 in
some twenty-seven years.
Of that sum, after excluding the sum
paid to the Funded Debt Commission tor
redemption or buying in of the evidences
Of the city's Indebtedness, over s, 200, 900
has been paid to the bondholders.
The city still owes S6S9,OOO on bonds
held by the bondholders; SS45, 700 being
in the hands of the Funded Debt Com
mission. In addition, there is due inter
est on bonds s2lO.7lO, and the total
debt in the hands of outside parties is
S90O,6l0.
But the main fact to which we wish to
direct attention is, that Sacramento has
paid to her bondholders over 81, 900, 600,
and that the bonds were sold to them
originally at an enormous discount That
sum Of 81, ,0OO, 900 these creditors have re-
ceived, and Mr.. Daniel Meyer, as the
chief of them. has received the most of it.
What now has Mr.. Meyer done for the
city? What should he in good conscience
do, since we have kept his investment
good and made his security year by
year better and better? The fact being
that he has not helped US in any way, we
the other day pointed out how he may
give free rein to his generous impulses
by subscribing to the industrial improve
ment proposition on the assessment basis
OF l,000, ,0O0-that is, assuming that he has
Sl,OO0.O 900 of assessabIe property or interest
in the city, he can well afford to sign i'm
provement notes, as others are doing,
on that basis. The question is, will he
do it? Who knows but that Mr.. Meyer
is only waiting to be pressed on this sub
iect?

SnIinaG

There Is Talk OF Holding Them Near
Salinas.
The Salinas Journal, in speaking of the
coming field trials, has this mention OF the
subject in recent issue:
1T is in contemplation to have the
held trials of the California Field Trial
Club, which have taken place at Bakers
held for number of years, held at Sali-
mas. At the meeting of the club held in
bakersfield at the termination Of the field
trials of 1893, Salinas received favorable
mention. The duty now devolves upon
the citizens of Salinas to use their best
endeavors to have the committee in
charge OF securing grounds act favorably
to our section.
We have fine grounds and plenty of
birds. &. 4. Herbert has kindly donated
the use of his Natividad ranch of some
5000 acres for the use of the club, a most
generous offer on the part of one of our
most estimable citizens. We can guaran-
tee to all who participate in this most in
terestlng sport hearty welome, good ac-
commodatlon, pleasant time and hospi-
tallty unbounding in the extreme, which
our good citizens are noted for"

SCIENCE AND sen,

Mosso, the scientist, comes to the de-
Tense of woman against the charge that
her sex is a lower animal type than that
of man. Some of the musty old fathers
of the church held that woman's physical
structure is so inferior to that of man that
she was not formed after the image of
God. Some of these canonists went so
far as to conclude and declare that woman
had no soul. Professor Sergi. says Mosso,
has committed the error of following the
lead of the churchly pessimists.
Mosso now takes occasion to prove by
object lessons how much these thinkers
have been mistaken. In the first place.
he wishes it kept in mind that woman
must be considered for unprejudiced
judgment, as free from the yoke which
man has placed upon her. So conditioned,
he finds her representing a particular
language in the geological scale.
What this is, what it expresses he thus
finds. That in dogs and horses there is
little if any difference between males and
females. The lioness is more to be
feared for her agility, strength and
ferocity than the lion. AS matter of
fact the physical characteristics which
distinguish the human race from ami
mails, are feminine peculiarities. The
structure of the brain shows no great
abyss between man and animals. There
is, saysiMosso, no immeasurable differ
ence between our brain and that of the
gorilla, and the effects of the central
cavities are shown only in the advancing
development of the expressions of
psychical activity, not in their formation
and character.
No physician, he insists, could mistake
the pelvis of man twenty PAGES away
for that of an anthropoid ape. The pelvis
of woman is a new type which has ap-
peared upon the earth. The search for
the link between animals and man has
been vain until now. The narrow, high
pelvis OF the man Is more ape-like than
that of woman. If an upright gait is
indicative of intellectual superiority, is a
mark of distinction, then woman pos
sesses a decided advantage in the form of
her pelvis.
Again, he declares that scientists Will
not deny that the female embryo exhibits
greater fullness Of life. He says Darwin
has demonstrated that female animals
often revert to the masculine type, while
the reverse seldom happens. Statistics
prove that under unfavorable conditions
more men are born than women: also,
that male animals the more easily yield
to pain than the female.
As to the charge that the brain OF
women cannot compare with that of
man. and that they should not therefore
enter into emulation with men in the
mental domain, the scientist replies that
the division which puts woman into the
home in the vocation OF wife and mother
has greatly assisted man. been immeas-

THE Colusa Sun says: ''There are
millions upon millions of dollars thrown
away every year upon roads in this State"
That is putting it strong. But the sub
ject of this waste needs emphasis to
rouse the people to action to put an end
to it. Probably So. coo, 900 a year is squan-
dered in California on uneconomic and
short-lived highways. Possibly the Sun
is right, and that it is very much larger
sum. Certainly the annual losses to the
people by reason of bad roads foot up
twice and thrice three millions of dollars.
