Major JaoksOn's Lecture.

A large audience filled the Congrega-
tional church last evening to listen to
Major jackson, Of the U. S. army, de-
liver an address upon "The People of
the Pueblos." The inclemency of the
weather did not deter the holders of the
tickets to the course, and many others
from attending and spending most in
teresting and instructive evening. Major
jackson is a typical army officer, who
shows the benefits of the West Point edu
cation and discipline of the army life. He
had made profound study of the sub
ject upon which his address was based,
and handled it in a manner most enter
tanning. He began by giving descrip-
tion of the Pueblos and the people who
inhabit, then described their quaint
dwelling places and their simple, primi
tive habits. These tribes, which live in
the dry, desert-like country of Arizona,
represent the oldest existing civilization.
It is believed, Major Jackson said, that
these were a prosperous nation, or tribe,
when Abraham was feeding his f1ocks in
Mesopotamia. Geolo2ically this conti-
nent is the oldest of all lands, and it is
just as true, the scholars say, that the
first beginnings of life were upon the
soil now called American. Before the
great glacial intrusion, which covered
with ice to a great depth, the northeast
ern portion of this continent that section
was inhabited by many peoples who re-
treated before the icy avalanche till they
took refuge in the high table lands of
the southwestern part of this continent.
Here they remained and here their de-
scendants are today. The field for the
theological student is most interesting
one, and Major Jackson has investigated
it to great length. The speaker gave a
detailed description of the peculiar snake
dance, which he himself witnessed.
The social customs, marriage ceremonies
and daily life of these peoples were
graphically described. In conclusion,
Major Jackson condemned the practice
of the government taking Indian chill
dren from their parents and transporting
them to the eastern Indian schools and
giving them smattering OF. an educa-
tion and trade, and then turning them
loose to re-assume their old habits or
starve. Education should be taken to
the Indian, and the Indian not taken to
the education.
The address was an able, instructive
one, and every person in the audience
listened intently to the speakers words.
If all the lectures prove as interesting as
Major Jackson's, the course will be q
great success. The next lecture will be
delivered Dec. 31st by Professor Lloyd
of Pacific University.

made to divert large share of the in
fux to Wasco county, than which no
better place for settlement can be found
in the state. The efforts being made by
the real estate exchange of this city are
very laudable, and should interest the
support of citizens generally. The next
year will be great one for the Pacific
Northwest and The Dalles and the rich
region of country, of which it is the
centre, should be among the PLACES re-
ceIving the greatest benefit.

Mrs. Gaspar charges that her husband has

According to the statements of the de-
serted wife the husband lived dual life
during the past three years. Although
only teamster he was enabled to keep two

as Mr.. Gaspar and in the other as Mr..

trouble he has fled.

Opposed to Hauling Freight.
Merchants whose places of business are
on the line of the Oakland, San Leandro
and Haywards electric road are preparing
a protest to the City Council against the
hauling of freightcars through the princi-
pal streets of the city. The company has
made practice of late of attaching fiat

loaded with trunks and other household
goods, to an electric car and hauling it
thus to Haywards and way points.
The complaint is made on the ground
that the heavily loaded cars raise great
amount OF dust and are unsightiy.

overjoyed at my presence in the city. In

he told me that he would have nothing

manly toward me, and we took rooms at

Board of Regents of the university was
actively pressing the legislators to place
the work of the board in the hands OF the
agricultural department of the university
they were also supporting Mr.. Phelps bill
to appropriate $3.50 900 to erect building
in this city to contain the affiliated col
leges. By some means Frank Buck OF
Napa, who was working in the interests of
the board, gathered strength enough in the
Senate to defeat the affiliated colleges bill
in that house, and then he went to Mr..
Phelps and made a compromise with him.
The regents were to let the Board of
Horticulture alone, or their affiliated COL
leges bill would not go through the Senate
and as this latter was of more Importance
to them they agreed, and the Board of
Horticulture was let alone. But when it
came before the Governor he vetoed the
appropriation and the board now has it's
life, but after July will have to support
itself.
In the meantime the Viticultural Com
mission was ordered disbanded on Deem
Der 81, 1895, and an appropriation to last
that long was allowed By that time the
viticulturists will be in position to con-
tinue the work of the commission without
any trouble by the new organization which
will succeed it.

diligent wage earners, who must keep up
their strength at this trying season.
But when labor is excessive, protracted
or done under great mental and bodily
strain, as is usually the case with the work

women who might lead dependent lives,

ever they feel overworked, run down and

ARISING IN NEW FORM.
A College of Practical VitiCul-
ture to Be EStab-
IiShed
Why the Board of Horticulture Was
Left and Its Fellow Dis
banded.

Following fast upon the news that the
Viticultural Commission must go out of
existence next December comes the news
that the Commissioners and their
friends are perfectng a scheme whereby
all that was of value in the old institution
may be retained in new organization,
only the general plan of which has SO far
been spoken of. 1t is meeting with very
general favor, however, and it is hoped
that by the time the present commission
will disband the new organization will be
in running order and quite ready to take
up the work necessary.
The plan is one to form a college of
practical viticulture, which will acquire
as good library as the old commission,
will gather what information is obtainable
regarding the viticultural interest, and
will disseminate the same, just as the
present institution has been doing all
along. The one particular wherein it will
differ from the old commission will be in
this: The new organization will incor-
porate, and its directors will be elected by
the members of the organization. They
will have no utilization with political par
ties and the institution will be run en-
tirely independent of the State govern
ment.
When the affairs of the commission have
been wound up all the effects of the office
will be turned over to the regents of the
university, and will presumably be handed
over by them to the agricultural depart
ment of the college, which is expected to
continue the work of the commission.
There is now at the commission rooms, on
the corner of Sansome and Bush streets,
one of the finest .viticultural libraries in
America, and it will be rather hard for the
new organization to give it up, but the
present Viticultural Commissioners expect
to be able to duplicate it when they go out
of office next December.
There are already enlisted in the scheme
some of the most prominent vineyardists
in the State, including representatives from
every important wine district in California.
All the present Commissioners are also in
terested in it. and with such support it is
hoped to make strong ana lasting insti-
tuition Its only political element will be
to attend to legislation in both Legislature
and Congress whenever any bill in the in
terests of it's clients is introduced, or when
any obnoxious measure is IN danger of be-
ing adopted.
The Viticultural Commission is in this
respect in little better condition than the
Board of Horticulture. The Viticultural
Commission was killed in the Legislature,
but the Board of Horticulture, while not
killed, had its appropriation cut off by the
Governors veto.
1t was originally intended that it should
share the fate of the Viticultural Commits
sion, but by neat little political play this
was averted. 1t seems that at the same
time the legislative committee from the
