THE NICARAGUA CANAL.
Stockton Record. /

Even the foreign papers since tho OPEN
ing of the KIel canal have been induleinr
in satirical filings at the United states and
the way in which we have not built the
Nicaragua ship canal. With such a sen
tiinen: i'll favor OF the undertaking as
now exists, it would need no more than
the passing support of the Administra-
tion at Washington to insure its success.
But Mr.. Cleveland and his friend, Secre-
tary Carlisle. are gone fishing.

1t would seem that good faith on the
part OF the United States Government
would call for creator precautions against
tilibustering expeditions fitted out at
ports on tho Pacific Coast to raise the
standard OF instruction on the Ha-
waiau Islands in behalf OF the eX-Queen.
The story that comes from Seattle Of
schooner LOAD OF cannon, small arms and
desperate men bound for the islands, for
the purpose Of beginning a fresh rebel
lion against the Dole Government may
Oe exaggerated, but The fact remains that
previous cOnspiracies against the repub-
lie have had their origin on this coast
The attitude OF taiS country toward Ha-
waii Is inc0m prehensIble in view OF The
position which the / nited States has
taken IN tie past toward nations which
nave discarded mOnarchlcaI Tor repuo-
lican Institutions. one would suppose
that If the present Adminis ration cannot
be cordial to the young republic, il might
at least protect it from insurrection and
blOodshed planned i'll this country.
INVENTIONS.
iColusa Sun.1
A John G.. Hamilton is busy inventing
q beet-puller for the sugar beet industry.
1t is designed to pull the Deets out of the
ground, cut their tops OFF, and leave them
in piles in the neid convenient for the
wagons to pick up. Query: When that
machine is perfected will the farmer
make more on his beets, the factory get
its beets for less money, and so increase
its profits, or Will sugar he cheaper to the
toiling millions of the earth who are busy
rotting their teeth out of their heads by
making fermentation tubs of their over
sweetened stomacbs?-Tulare Register.
1t is all but parts Of one stupendOus whole
Whose body nature is and God the soul.
Just what bearing this particular in
veutiOu will have on the sugar business
it will be hard 10 divine, but all the in
ventions in manufacture, transportation,
etc, have pushed the world ahead.
Whether for better or for worse may be
a question for a debating society where
nothing is ever settled any more than in
Congress. 1t may be debated whether or
not the country would not be better off if
the great metropolitan daiies had to de-
pend on the press Ben Franklin used,
and the OK cart the boss means OF trans
portatiOn. But we are in the crowd that
is pressing in the direction called Pro-
gress. and he who starts TO march the
other way will be trampled under foot.
There is no debating that part OF it.

ONE CALIFORNIA.

There is only one California in this
country. is thought ever traught with
hopeful meaning to the people ot this State.
Several new varieties OF fruits which can
flourish only here are to be brought out.
for example the tamarind. Open up new
fruit producing districts as they will,
California will always be unique i'll her
productions, and thls means unendiug
prosperity.

Il most delightful affairs of the social season may be anticipated.
 The performance at the opera house yes- terday afternoon by the pupils of Powell school was splendid success in every way. The children performed their parts with wonderful cleverness and gave evil dence not only of careful training, but of a natural brightness very gratifying to parents and audience. They sang and re- cited we'll, remarkably well, and tue inn mense audience was enthusiastic in their approval and applause. Miss Cahalan and her corps of teachers deserve the warmest congratulations for the perfect success or the entertainment yesterday afternoon.
 The Hippocrenea ca and Pierian Literary societies of the Pollock Stevens institute held an interesting and improving, though an impromptu, meeting Friday afternoon. After a short programme of music, read ings and recitations ,-seme of the current events of the day were discussed, among which the following were touched upon: Hypnotism, "Trilby," the wreck of the Eibe, Nicaragua canal, the O Brien school tax bill, the octopus bill before the legis- Iature, etc. Such occasions will prove very profitable to the bright young mem- bers.
 Miss Cora Carter gave a card party at her father's residence in Bessemer last Thurs- day night complimentary to Miss Archer. It was one of the pleasantest social events of the season and the hour for departing came all too soon for the young people present.
 The following young people were in at tendance: Miss Howell with MT. Whil- den, Miss Moore with MT. Bains, Miss Mattie McAdory with Mir. McAdory, Miss Ransom with Mir. Johnson, Miss McAr- thur with Mir. Houston, Miss Patton of Birmingham with MT; F. DeBardeleben, Miss Prince with MT. o. L. DeBardeleben, Miss Houston with MT. c. F. DeBardele- ben, Miss Crook with Mir. H. DsBardeie- ben, Miss Graves with Mir. Moseley, Miss Read with MT. Walker, MT. and Mrs. Car penter, Mir. and Mrs. Ransom, MT. and Mrs. Taylor, MT. and Mrs. Montague, Messrs. Reed, Lewis, McArthur, Led- better.
 The following young men from Birming- ham were present: Messrs. John w. Pat ton, W. Cardeu, 0. Jackson, J. A. Kirt- ley, 0. Davis, J.: Ware, John Yeatman,
 The prizes were won by Miss Prince and MT. F. DeBardeleben.
 | For the past two weeks both Bessemer | and Birmingham have been honored with | the presence of one of the most charmin 2 | and lovely young girls in the south. Her
 name is Miss Robbye Belle Crook, formerly
 of this city, but who now resides in Vicks- l burg, Miss. She has been visiting Mrs. McAdory of Bessemer and the Misses Arnold l of Birmingham, but on last Friday even- | ing she received a telegram from her home
 stating that her father was seriously i'll | and to come home at once.
 | Miss Crook is noted for her beauty and winning manners and has made many
 friends during her visit in our city, and we hope she will honor us with au-
 other visit very soon. Her many friends regretted to see her part and wish her fa- | ther speedy recovery.
