IN the death of Constance Fenimore
Woolson American literature suffered a
great loss. Mrs. Woolson was one of the
best of American novelists; pure in
thought, lofty in sentiment, natural in
sketching character, and ornate, graceful
and impressive in style. There is not in
all the sentiment and thought of her
writings line or word that does not tend
to uplift, to help, to stimulate to worthy
ends. In her plots, and in her interpre
tations of human motives. she was re-
markable for truthfulness, vivid i'm
agination and rich fancy never leading
her into exaggeration of over-color, or
the creation of characters that had not
their counterpart in life. She was
writer of fiction Of whom the American
literary world was proud. and with every
reason. To those who have lived in the
great lake region, aud all who are at all
familiar with the early history of the
Maekinaw and Superior districts, and of
the hardy people who were pioneers in
that region of romance and beauty of
scenery, Mrs. Woolson's novel Annie"
will remain pleasure and companion;
while to those strange to the section and
neoule treated, it offers delightful view
of civilization and period of which there
has not been much treatmentin romance.

Mans 1nhumaniry to himself.

The most inhuman outrages, outrages
which would disgrace the savage, man
perpetrates upon his own system by
swallowing drastic purgatives which con-
vulse his stomach, agonize his intestines
and weaken his system. Many people
constantly do this under the impression
that medicaments only which are violent
in their action, and particularly cathar-
tics, are of any avail. Irreparable injury
to health is wrought under this mistaken
idea. The laxative which most nearly
approaches the beneficent action of nature
is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which is
painless but thorough, and invigorates
the intestinal canal instead of weakening
and irritating it. The liver and the stom-
ach share in the benign discipline insti-
tuted by this comprehensive medicine,
whose healthful influence is felt through
out the system. Malarious, rheumatic.
kidney and nervous complaints succumb
to it.

AN ARSuRD PROTEST.

1t is said that at Gait protest is being
circulated against submission of the road
question to vote of the people. The
basis of the protest is said to be first, that
than $4,000 mile; second, that the city
cannot be made liable for the fund to be
raised. Both of these statements are ab-
surd. A 16-fooI macadam road can be
built anywhere in Sacramento County for
from 8, 400 to 5000 mile. Engineering
science and actual experience have settled
that.
But the cost is a subsequent matter: it
need not be incurred at all if the authori-
ties should find it to be too high. The
State offers the power free to crush all the
cobble the people want for roads, and this
in itself is a great saving.
Sacramento city built at less rate than
$4,000 mile for a macadam 16-foot track
road, street of the costliest pavement
known, te wit: rock and cement sub
structure, bituminous roof or surface.
granite curbs, basalt cutters and borders.
The whole forty eight feet wide. For the
sum that street cost Sacramento about
S29, 900, the same builders would con-
struct more than nine miles of l6-foot
macadam, into which neither granite
curb, cement substructure, bituminous
surface, nor basalt cutters and borders
enter.
The second objection of the protest is
ridiculous, as every lawyer knows, that
general fund for general improvement
cannot be raised on the county assess
ment-roll basis. The law admits of no
two sides to that question; whoever as
serts to the contrary is either ignorant Of
the law or intentionally misleads. Sac
ramento city property is to-day taxed for
every county expense without exception.
Road district cost it does not contribute
to; this is not road district proposition
but permanent county highway projec-
ton, and there is not line or letter
of the law prohibiting it, but law in
plenty affirming it-besides which it
has been settled by counties that have
done precisely such work in many Sec
tions of the country.

The idea of celebrating Washington's
Birthday in this city by dedication of
the new Federal building on that day is
an excellent one. The plan is to have the
children of the city raise the flag, while
guns fire and martial bands salute old
glory as it runs to the masthead. That is
good. but better stills the scheme to have
the flag bought by one-cent contributions
OF the children Of the public schools of the
city, for which there is to issue to each a
certificate of ownership in the flag. This
flag will thereafter be cased and put upon
wall of the building as a souvenir of the
occasion. 1t may not be generally known,
but it is believed to be a fact that this will
be the first genuine ceremonial dedca-
ton by the people of Federal building.
