HIS SERVICES NEEDED.

The cutlery which has been raised
throughout California by the summary
dismissal of Professor George Davidson is
the most fattering compliment that g
Western scientist ever received, and ii
doubtless goes a long way toward healing
the wound of chagrin and humiliation
which the Cleveland administration has
inflicted. To Professor Davidson the
greatest value of this popular demonstra-
ton is a recognition by those in position
best able to judge of his high and useful
abilities
While this spirit on the part OF Califor-
MIA is most commendable, a more substan-
tial appreciation of this able mans worth
might be exhibited by the people them
selves employing him, either through the
machinery of the State Government or by
some other means. In the University the
State has an institution which is doing an
immense amount of good in directing and
educating the energies of the people in
making the most of the extraordinary nat
ural advantages with which the State has
been blessed. Necessarily, however. this
work must be subsidiary to a regular fune-
ton as group of schools and colleges de-
voted to the education Of the young. 1t is
remarkable that the University has accom-
plished so much for the industries of the
people outside its main purpose.
The abilities of such man as Professor
Davidson could be turned to an account of
far more practical and immediate value to
the people of the State than that in which
they we're exercised for the United States
Government. These would be mostly of
an exploratory kind, as the University is
fully equipped for all the analytical work
brought to it by inquiring residents OF the
State. That treasures of many kinds and
of great value are hidden all over the
State, especially in the less accessible
regions, we are compelled to believe.
Whatever scientific explorations of such
regions have been made were undertaken
for limited specific purposes of kind very
different from that which we here contem.
plate and which should be thoroughly
comprehensive.
The time for considering some matter of
this kind is ripe now while the entire
State is throbbing with an eagerness for
progress such as has never been observed
here before, and while it is more than
ever essential that we have a better
understanding of our resources than the
slower methods which contentment in the
past made it necessary for us to acquire. A
special bureau with Professor Davidson as
the guiding spirit could work to excellent
purpose in forwarding the great work
upon which the people have entered.

REGULATING ELECTRIC ROADS.

An onlooker cannot help but wonder
why an electric road should be so opposed
to being placed under the regulation of the
State authorities. Here is the Oakland
and Haywards road, for instance, that is
running trains of passenger cars with an
other car containing the machinery and
mails and express. The State claims that
the road has placed itself under the con-
struction of our laws passed to govern the
conduct of railroads, and the company is
combating the idea with fiereeness that
seems to give excellent cause to wonder.
The Haywards road declares that because
it does not haul freights it does not come
within the operation of the State laws
regulating transportation, and that, there
fore, it is merely street railway; and that
although it carries express matter and the
mails these are not freight. Whether or
not this may be regarded as quibbling it is
clear, as the San Mateo electric line, on
this side of the bay, has already shown,
that electric roads have some very strong
reason for not desiring to be brought under
State regulation. This is all the more
difficult for an ordinary observer to under
stand, when he reflects that as a rule
lower rate than steam roads, and that,
portation similar advantage as the service
develops a capacity and opportunity for
engaging in that sort of traffic.
The matter is very important one in
view of the fact that electric lines in vari-
Gus parts of the State are under construc.
tion and formation for the transportation
of freight, and in view of the further fact
that they are profitable enterprises as
rule and perform swift and satisfactory
service at a cost of operation much less
than that of steam roads. In fact, in some
parts of the State, particularly in the Napa
and Sonoma valleys, they are projected
with view to ease the burdens which the
steam roads have levied on the profits of
industry. In most other cases, however,
they are being undertaken to tap regions
not penetrated by steam lines. Certainly.
therefore, these lines will have to be oper-
ated under State regulation, unless the law
receive some unexpected construction.
1t is difficult to see why even the regular
streetcar lines of San Francisco do not in
stitute freight service that might take the
place, to large extent, of the system of
wagon delivery, which the merchants
maintain at heavy expense. Much more
is it a clear proposition that electric lines,
which are comparatively cheap in con-
struction and operation, and which, there
fore, run far out into the suburbs and
penetrate the producing areas, should find
one of their most profitable employments in
the forwarding of freight. Can there be
some peculiar fear that railroad commits
sions are institutions to be Stunned, and
that electric-road companies would rather
lose business than come in contact with
fhau9

AN ABLE TREATISE.

The elaborate treatise of John P. Young
on Bimetallism and Monometallism,
published in the Sunday Chronicle, Will
take rank among the most important con-
trlbutions to the popular discussion OF the
subject in this country. 1t is a weightler
and more reliable work than ICON )
Financial School," but is equally clear,
vigorous and interesting. 1t occupies
somewhat of middle ground between the
learned essays of the professors OF imam
clal science and the popular orator; ana
while it exhibits the fairness and WIDE
knowledge of the schools it has the earnest
ness and directness of statement that are
pleasing to the people.
In the widespread discussion of the
problems involved in the choice between
blmetallism and monometallism, there has
been so much of misrepresentation and
misstatement on both sides that the treat
Use of Mr.. Young is of no little value to the
public. 1t bears evidence of having been
written in haste and could be improved in
many particulars by careful revision, as
some of the points in the general argument
are repeated two or three times, while
others equally important are not suffi-
GENTLY elaborated or emphasized. Never
theless it furnishes the reader with fairly
comprehensive presentation of the general
principles underlying the controversy and
the effect of the demonstration OF silver
upon the world at large and this country
in particular.
Eastern writer's have furnished SO
many books and pamphlets on the
subject that it is gratifying to see a
California author coming forward to take
a leading place among them. Mr.. Young
has made an able argument for bimetal-
lism and the monometallists will find it
harder to refute than Coins work, against
which they have directed SUCH multitude

make a display at once of activity, fes-
tivity and patriotism on the National
birthday.
The excellence of the local celebrations
will of course keep at home many people
who would otherwise have come to San
Francisco to keep the Fourth with US.
To a certain extent, therefore, these cele-
brations are adverse to the greatness OF
ours. There is nothing in this, however,
for US to regret. We could hardly claim
the Fourth of July as a special civic holl-
day and expect to have the claim allowed.
If we wish to hold a fete 20 which we can
invite the whole State and serve up in the
metropolis all the glories of the festal
cities, we must select some other date than
that of National holiday. In the pres
ent case we can do no more than to lead
in general celebration, and by reason OF
our superior wealth and population make
this the spot where the birthday OF the
Republic will be most brilliantly observed
on the Pacific Coast.
In this appearance of renewed interest
in the Fourth and of increased activity
and zeal in celebrating it, there is much
cause for qualification. Patriotism is the
soul of national destiny. 1t is the vital
flame which energies the body of the
nation and gives force to popular aspira-
tons. It's manifestation excites confidence
in the public mind and awakens enterprise.
A widespread iubilation on the Fourth
W i'll put everybody in good humor. 1t
will give vigor to everything, and the
money expended in fireworks and decora-
tions will be more than repaid by the
benefits radiating from their flashing splen-
doris and feeting glory.

THE WOMAN'S AUXILIARY,
Episcopal Church Helpers Re-
port the Result of a
Months Work.
Preparations for Future Services.
The Art OF Typography
Revived,

The Woman's Auxiliary to the Board of
Missions of the Episcopal Church held its
regular monthly meeting at Grace Church
yesterday afternoon. After the disposal
of routine duties of the meeting the secre-
tary, Mrs. Lawder, called attention of the
members to the several funds and spoke
particularly of the privilege of self-denial
for the woman's offering to be made at the
general convention to be held at Mime
apolis next October. An interesting fea,
ture of the California Auxiliary that was
also considered is the altar fund, consist
Ing of contributions from the Altar So
ciety, which has charge of the chancels in
the diocese. and from which fund one or
more affairs are erected each year in the
missions. These affairs have revived the
art OF typography in their adornment. A
letter was read from Miss Kate Hampton
of Cashier Valley, N. c., thanking Golden
Gate Circle of the Kings Daughters,
through the auxiliary, for a generous gift
of altar linen.
The auxiliary accepted the invitation of
Rev. John A. Emory of the Church of the
church on TRANSPORTATION day. August 6,
when Bishop Nichols will celebrate, for the
auxiliary and for the Kings Daughters, to
which all other chapters of the order are
also invited.
The collection yesterday goes to the
organ fund for the mission at San Ardo.
The ladies present were urged to seek for
an organ that may be in present disuse
and report to Mrs. Lawder at 2S05 WASH
ington street.
All entertaining feature of the meeting
was the report of the secretary of her visit
to Los Angeles, where she attended the
adjourned annual meeting of the auxiliary
held in st. Paups Church. The services
opened with the celebration of the holy
communion, partaken of by 200 communi-
cants. Rev. E. ]. Lyon of st. Stephens
Church, this City, delivered the sermon.
In the afternoon very large and en-
thusiastic missionary meeting was held
and encouraging reports were heard from
the Woman's Auxiliary, the junior depart
ment, the babies branch and the Church
Periodical Club. Bishop Nichols addressed
the gathering, and Mrs. J. D. Browne read
a paper on 'sHow Best to Interest in the
Work of the Auxiliary"
The mission work in the church of St.
Paups was commended to the auxiliary by
Mrs. Lawder as q fit object for its united
efforts. She said this mission work had
been wonderfully successful in securing
positions for young women.
Mrs. Lawder also reported pleasant meet
ings at the Church of the Ascension, East
Los Angeles, and auxiliary branches in
Pomona, Pasadena and San Gabriel
The meeting adjourned to Monday. Au-

THE DEAD TEACHER.

By the death of Professor Huxley science
loses a student and the world a teacher.
The loss of the student is great, but that
of the teacher is much greater. There are
many men in the laboratories who are
making researches into the hidden truths
of nature with as much devotion and
scarcely less skill than Huxley, but
nowhere among the English speaking
ability equal to his of not only advancing
science but of teaching it to the general
public in way that instructs, entertains
and arouses enthusiasm.
1t would be hard to overrate the infu-
ence exerted by Huxley and Tyndall In
making scientific studies popular among
non-scientife people. They were fitted
for that work by special gifts rare among
men. They had rare capacity for down.
right hard work and sufficient integrity
of purpose to be honest in all they did. In
making researches they were thoroughly
imbued with that spirit of Silence which
doubts everything until it has been tested.
To these high faculties of investigation
were joined keen delight in controversy,
an irrepressible desire for utterance and a
mastery of written and spoken eloquenoe
that had the world to listen willingly to
whatsoever they said.
Darwin launched the theory of evolution
by his investigations into the origin of
species, Herbert Spencer expanded 1t into
philosophy, but neither of them could
have made the new doctrine widely popu-
lar and accepted as an established truth in
the lifetime of single generation. Neither
of them had the talent to make abstruse
problems clear to the common understand
ing and perhaps neither of them had de-
sire for it. Tyndall and Huxley were
needed to speak among the people the
to few. They made a crusade for OAR
winism. They wrote pamphlets for it,
They took the stump for it. They pro-
voked disputation about it. They were the
knights Grant of science, going up and
down England and America hunting for
somebody with whom they could break o
lance in favor of the new philosophy.
The world has great need of such teach
ers as these. As a rule men of scientific
attainments live too much to themselves
and are too Indifferent TO public opinion.
Most scientists seek the approval and
praise of other scientists, but pay little at
tention to the general mass of men. As q
consequence they do very little in the way
of popular education. They do not arouse
those loud contentious and hot contro-
versies that compel the attention of the
people to the cause al issue and thus lead
to the spfead of knowledge. Many of them
now living may be as able or perhaps ADLER

AROUND THE CORRIDORS.

T. NJ. Brown, or ''Mac" Brown, as he is
known ell over the northern counties of the
State, the perpetual Sheriff of Humboldt
County, is in town. "Mac" Brown has the
longest of all records as Sheriff. Away
back in 1861 he was elected Sheriff of
klamath County, at the same time that John
P. Jones, the Nevada Senator, was elected
Sheriff of Trinity County. Although a Demo-
crat, his popularity kept him in Office all
through the war, and he held the Office, term
after term, until August, 1874, when, by an act
of the Legislature, Klamath County ceased
to exist, and its territory was divided
among the neighbors. This brought 'Mac'
Browns slice of the county into Humboldt and
he had to wait until the next election for his
old Office. In 1877 he became Sheriff of Hum
boldt County and has remained in the office
ever since.
Humboldt is strongly Republican and you
are Democrat, are you not?" he was asked
yesterday at the Russ.
Eyes, but we have very good Republicans up
there. 1. man will observe two things he
can get along with the people well enough (;
those are, never to hurt mans feelings about
his religion or his politics and to try TO treat

Asked about crime in Humboldt he said
"While was in Office in Klamath there was
only one hanging. That was of an Indian who
had killed q white boy. In Humboldt there
have been but two men hanged. There is very
little rowdyism in the county. We have a very
good and peaceable class of people. There are
people, too, from all over the world, except
Cinnamon. At least there are very few of
them. Up in the northeast corner of the
county there are some fifteen or twenty min
