THE FUNDING BILL.

Responding to the questions of an es-
teemed correspondent we repeat that the
refusal of the Government to extend the
time for the payment of the debt due
from the Union Bacific and Central Pa
cific Railroad Companies is but small
part of the whole question. Between
the Governments present attitude and
its ownership stands a first mortgage
which by the Act of 1864 is permitted to
be placed on the roads. The first mort
gage aggregates S6O,OO0,0 900. 1t can be
discharged in but one or two ways,
either by paying S6O,00O,0O0 in gold coin
out of the Treasury of the United States,
or by the issuance of bonds in the sum of
$50, ,000, 600, which will be first mortgage
on the road as a substitute for bonds now
existing and in the retirement of such
bonds. The s6O.000,0O0 must stand as a
first mortgage because the present bond
holders hold first mortgage, and they
would not change their present position
for one less desirable.
Competent authority justifies the asser-
ton that the road can be built from
Sacramento to Omaha at present cost of
materials and labor for $40, 600, 600. What
the RECORD UNION attempted to point
out and thought ii had made clear, was
that whoever stands committed to the
doctrine of having the Government re-
fuse to extend the time for the payment
of the second mortgage due to it must
stand committed to the proposition of
paying off the first mortgage of $50, 600. 900
with either gold or bonds, when at the
same time a new road could be con-
structed for SAC, ,0O0, 900.
Our correspondent calls attention to the
fact that the Republican candidate for Gov
ernor is opposed to the extension of the
time for payment. We must remind him
that that is not our fault. The situation
we herein describe and described in the
former article is real; it exists; and it is
absolutely childish to attempt to ignore
il. No matter who is in favor of the Gov
ernment foreclosing the second mort
gage, he talks ineffabls foolishness unless
at the time he is in favor Of disoharging

THE authorities should be encouraged
to stand by the judgment they have
reached, that no more gravel shall be
ordered on the streets of the city. Mac
adam is the economic pavement. OF
gravel we have had surfeit, and in not
one case has it proved of that wearing
quality needed for our streets. There is
gravel, were it procurable here, that will
make fair surface, but no gravel, no
matter what its quality. will make roof
to a roadway. The essential of good road
is that it have a roof through which the
water cannot pass; roof as essentially a
cover as if roof of slate or wood were
erected ovar the street. There is in this
vicinity any quantity of trap rock that
placed on a street, first coarse and then
rolled down, last fine and then rolled
well, makes cement surface or roof. A
company is now forming to crush this
trap rock, which is bedrock cobble, and
supply it at less cost than the people have
had to pay for the red clay and gravel
with which some of our streets have been
ruined. 1t will be public spirited thing
to bring this broken cobble and cobble
dust into market at low figure, and the
effect will be to stimulate street improve
ment, with broken stone as the chief ma
terisl for surfacing.

IT will not have escaped attention that
the statement so repeatedly made that the
late strike was sudden and unpremedi-
tated and not contemplated in California,
is contradicted by Worden IN his recently
published statement. He was the Sacra-
mento delegate to the Railway Union at
Chicago last spring, and he affirms that
the strike was there considered and voted
on, and that he communicated with the
California lodges and asked them to con-
sent or refuse. and that they met and con-
sented to and accorded in the plan that
was carried out, and they SO informed
him, Worden, by wire. This fact is an
important one, and proves that the whole
affair was one of cool premeditation, and
accords with statements of the Eastern
press on that point.

SPECIAL COUNSEL.
Counties Cannot Employ Such In
Cat,

Counties Cannot Employ Such In
Criminal Cases.
The Supreme Court has decided the
suit of Modoc County, respondent, VS..
Spencer & Baker, ct al, appellants, the
substantive question of which is as to the
power of Board of Supervisors to en-
ploy counsel on behalf of the county to
prosecute or assist in the prosecution of
criminal cases.
The Board of Supervisors on July Z,
1891, passed resolution employing ap-
pellants to assist the District Attorney in
the prosecution of all the criminal cases
then pending in the county, at compen-
sation of 5000, and in. October instructed
the Auditor to draw a warrant for $500 in
part payment. The District Attorney
brought suit to restrain him from so do
ing, in the name of the county. The case
was decided in favor of the county and
appellants appealed.
The Supreme Court affirms the judg-
ment, holding that the Supervisors had
no power TO employ counsel in any suits
but those involving county property, and
that criminal suits are in the interest of
the whole people of the State and not of
the county alone.

ARARE OPPORTUNITY
Good Agricultural Land for $40
to $40 per Acre.

The Pacific Improvement Company has re-
Gently purchased twelve thousand ceres OF
land in the heart OF Tehama County, for the
purpose OF promoting subdivision and settle
nent. This land embraces lands from first
class Sacramento Valley agricultural land, to
land Of fair average quality, and is offered at
from $40 TO $40 per acre, in subdivisions OF
40, so, 12o, 16o and $40 acres.
The terms upon which these lands are offered
are especially attractive. They will be sold in
subdivisions, as above indicated, by the pay
ment Of interest only for three years, at which
time the purchaser can begin the payment OF
principal by paying the first OF five equal an
nual installments. Thus no part OF the prin-
cipal is to be paid for three years, and then
the purchaser is to have five years in which 10
pay FIVE equal annual inStallments, with in
terest at the rate of 2 per cent. per annum,
making payments extending over period OF
eight years. Intending purchasers are as
sured that this is an opportunity TO purchase
land OF fair average quality at $40 per acre,
ana good agricultural land at $50 an acre,
with other grades Of land at prices 10 CORE
spond between these figures.
The assertion is frequently made that good
lands, suitable for general farming, and es-
pecially adapted for nuitgrowing, cannot be
had in California for less than from $50 to
800 an acre. An examination Of the land
subject of this advertisement viii prove 20
home-seekers that this is an opportunity for
the purchase of good agricultural land at $40
an acre, and for qualities grading down 10 fair
agricultural land at SO an acre, on terms Of
payment which should make the disposition
of these lands to actual settlers result easy OF
accomplishment.
The primary object of the purchase Of this
body of land was the breaking up Of large
holding for the purpose OF promoting its set
tlenent in smaller quantities and its devotion
to diligent husbandry.

HARPER'S S
Pictorial History
or THE
Civil Wan.

This great book has sold for years
at SIC to $50 in two big volumes.
The pages are I64x1I3 inches.
There are 832 pages. Lots Of maps
and sketches, and one big colored
map 23x33 inches.
People wanted them, but couldn' t
afford SIC and kept asking for the
old 'Harpers Weekly during the
War" After the pictures had been
put into this big, new, complete his
tory, the old Weekly plates were de-
stroyed and now those files are scarce.
But the big history was SO inter-
esting, and, being compiled from all
the official records, was so COM
plete and valuable that thousands
bought it.
Now it is all cut up and everybody
is getting it and being surprised.
1t is made into 26 big parts, 81
big pages in each, and printed on
nice supercalendered paper better
than ever before-and has hand
some buff cover with emblematic de-
sign on each part
The parts have sold as high as 81
each, but can be got for only 8 cents
each if you know how. The
pictures alone are worth more than
that, but the story and copies OF
many official documents and state
papers of priceless historic value, all
go in with the pictures.

self as opposed to the passage of any
funding bill and in favor of an immedi-
ate closing down of the road, he talks
nonsense, unless at the same time he is
in favor of paying off the first mortgage
Let any candidate therefore stand forth
and answer the question: Are you in fa-
vor of taking 500, 900, 900 from the Treas
ury of the United States with which to
discharge the first mortgage lien upon a
roadbed and equipment which can be re-
produced for S4O.o0O.OO0? If you are,
your position is consistent, and you may
be permitted to say that you are opposed
to the passage of funding bill without
rebuke. Any other proposition than
this is mere pitiful. cringing. eontempti-
BILE, cowardly demagogism.
1t is not of the slightest consequence to
the RECORD UNION as to whom these ep-
ithets should apply. The irrefragible
truth is that they will apply to the fellow,
whoever he may be, whoever may have
nominated him for Office and whatever
position he may be running for. who says
that he is opposed to the passage of a
funding bill extending the time for the
payment of the debts of the Union and

ing the first mortgage by gold from the
