the negative.

fence with pipe uprights, placed
around the lake.
Bids for painting the band stand
we're received from F. r. Clough for

the fence and the painting can be pro-
cured. The committee will procure a
hose and the duty of sprinkling the
ground has been assigned TO Engineer

A Greed With a Slow Growth.

\ new sect has arisen at Tacoma,
who profess sanctification, composed
entirely Of women, who in the name Of
God declare themselves too pure to
live with their husbands. The men,
bership makes up in fanatical zeal
what it lacks in rapidity of extension.
While the novelty of its creed draws
large attendance at its meetings, it is
not OF that devotional nature which
generally characte4izes religious meet
ings, and residents OF Old Town, where
the new doctrine took root, have peti.
toned for The authorities to suppress
these assemblages. The main body of
these petitioners is the general public,
and they insist that these meetings
are not at all times orderly; and sec.
ond comes the pathetic appeal OF de-
serted and disconsolate husbands who
do not take kindly to what they de-
declare is devilish nonsense"
II We are to judge of tree by its
fruit, and we believe there is scrip
tural authority for the application OF
that measure of merit, those people
have prospered best who have held to
the exact antithesis of this belief.

Newspaper Postage.

Inc rollCy OF the government has
hitherto been to promote popular in
tel!igcnce by maintaining low rate
o' postage on newspapers and periodi-
Gals. An effort is now being made,
ostensitly TO secure penny postage on
letters, TO Increase thi. rate about
eight-told. which will compel pub
fishers to advance the price OF sub.
scri ption from fifty TO one hundred per
cent.
Printed matter is being circulated,
and all classes Of business men, except
publishers, are solicited to sign petit
ton asking Congress to raise the rate
OF postage on newspapers. periodicals
and all kinds Of second-class mail mat
ter from | to S cents per pound. The
claim is made that if postage is in
creased on newspapers, etc, then post
age on letters will he reduced to l cent
each.
The statements made and the print
ed matter being circulated conveys
the impression that there is an enor-
nous deficit each year in the Postal
Department, and that it is caused by
the publishing interests"
The false statement made in the cir.
culars referred to causes business men
to think they are being treated un-
justly, as large portion of their mail
is letters, and they are led to believe
that newspaper postage ought to be as
great as letters.
In a postoffice where 80 clerks are
employed, and which may be consid-
cred an average postoffice, it WAS
found that the second-class mail mat
ter, which includes newspapers and
periodicals, weighed 5 times as much
as all other mail matter, which in
cludes letters, and yet only 4 clerks
we're required to handle the second.
class mail matter, while "a clerks were
required to take care of the other mail
matter.
From this it will be seen that the
labor on pound of letters is 40 times
times as great as the labor on pound
OF newspapers. and yet some people
think the poetofice should carry let.
tiers as cheaply as printed matter.
Letters receive the most careful atten.
ton from the postal clerks. because
they are valuable and must be kept in
"apple-pie Order" while second.class
matter is dumped into sacks like 80
much grain, and receives no care what
ever, and it does not need it, because
publishers perform all the labor re-
quired on second-class matter and de-
liver it at the postoflice ready for ship.
ment; therefore, it is entitled to the
present low rate of postage, because it
actually costs the Postal Department
far less to handle it than any other
mail matter. In addition to this, the
great proportion of second-class mail
matter is of an educational character,
and tends to purify, refine and elevate
mankind; hence, q country with free
schools at its foundation, should carry
all kinds of literature in cheap bind
ing at the lowest possible rate of post
age, and We contend that l cent q
pound is sufficient, because tho great
mass of the people receive the benefit
of il.
Let there be a cheapening of post
age, but no increase in any kind of
postage.

STATE NOMINATING CoNvHNTIoNs.-
The Populists' State Convention meets
at Yakima on the 30th day of June.
The Republicans and Democrats will
probably hold their conventions in
September. There are four State Of
fees to fill this year: Two Judges of
the Supreme Court are to be elected
and two Representatives in Congress.
1t is safe to say that Judges Dunbar
and Stiles will be candidates for re-
election, as also Doolittle and Wilson,
the present Congressional delegation.
1t is seldom that Republican lets 60
the teat without being choked off.
The influence of the latter has been
tested within the past few days, and
found to be insufficient to retain a
one-horse weather Office at the Capital
of their State.

TRAINS BEGIN TO RUN.
Whereat the People of Sacramento
Are Greatly Astonished.

SACRAMENTO, July 14.-Railroad off
cials here began this morning to open reg
ular Communication between points east
and west. Early in the day there was bus
lie and general excitement in the we'll
guarded depot. Railroad men hurried
about with instructions. other railroad
men did more hurrying in fulfilling these.
and pretty soon everything about the big
depot building was of animation intense
and in teresting. The first train made up
was sent off to San Francisco by the
Stockton way of getting there. Accord
ing to schedule time this train should have
pulled out at about half-past 10. but it
was over an hour later before it started
down the road to the metropolis There
were mail and express cars and three pas
senger coaches. The train was preceded
by locomotive and fat car On which were
nearly dozen regulars. About 100 yards
intervened between the guard train and
the one that followed.
At hali-past this afternoon an
overland train started off to Ogden with
the first Pullman cars that have left here
for two weeks. There were in this train

stable here for carriage to be let to S. D.
Worden in which the announcement was
made that Knox would be responsible for
the payment. The bill for this carriage is
said to have been afterward presented to
Knox and he is reported to have paid it.
1t is true that it cannot be said that Knox
was aware of the use to which the carriage
was to be put, but to the extent of going
Worden's security and paying the bill he
has been connected with the trestle dis
aster. Worden has already been arrested
and the testimony against him is to the
effect that be took carriage at this same
stable and drove to the scene of the wreck
only a short while before the disaster Oc-
Cured.
When seen by CALL reporter at the
prison Knox stated that be was entirely
ignorant of the charges against him. He
had understood from bis friends that the
charge or charges had been generally in
cluded in felony without any specifica-
tions. Knox denied absolutely that he
was in any way connected with the con-
spiracy against the railroad company
which resulted in the wreck Of the train,
or that he had the slightest intimation of
the disaster which was impending. He
said his arrest was an utter surprise to
him. He had supposed that he was con-
ducting a very orderly and well-principled
fight against the operation of Pullman
cars. Through his endeavOrs, he said, an
enormous crowd of hungry and laborless
men had been bound down to a certain
respectable observance of discipline. They
had obeyed the laws and had merely ex-
erted themselves to prevent any use of
Pullman cars until the demands of the
organization TO which they belonged had
been honored by the Pullman Company.
Chairman Knox thought his arrest very
unwise proceeding on the part of the civil
OF even the military authorities. Up to

this time, he said, he had been able 10
preserve order. Now, that an attempt
was being made to remove him from his
position and his field of operations, he
could not predict what might occur. If
his privilege Of leadership was taken
away he felt that this great multitude of
striking railway employees, unrestrained
by wise and careful counsel, might rise
violently and commit all manner of depre-
datons
The civil and military authorities smile
derisively at Knox's suggestion that trou-
Bile may occur from his forcible removal
from the scene Of action. On the contrary
they seem to have arrived at the conclusion
that Chairman Knox's removal from the
scene Of action is above all things cal
culated to amelorate the general condition
Of things and bring about the supremacy
of law and order. Among them it Is re-
gretted that Knox had not been deposed
several days ago. His power and infu-
ence and magnetism have been gener-
ally recognized and feared as we'll.
He has been looked upon as the attractive
orb about which have gathered thousands
of satellites. all dependent for their cour-
age and enthusiasm upon the continued
blaze Of their central sun. It has been
believed that if the power of Knox were
broken the strength of the organization
and all unity of purpose among those who
gather around him would also be severely
shattered.
