bad wines blended with worse. TWAS
once proposed 20 pass a law allowing
no wine 10 leave California without a
certificate Of purity from the State
Chemist. and the wine dealers Of Cali
fornia downed the bill. This shows
on its face that they did not want to
be compelled 10 make honest wine,
business OF California when they did
it. Dana knows what he is talking
about. There are plenty of first class
wine makers in Gallo mia, like Shram,
Parrot, Howes, WhitmOre and
others, but the big Wholesale dealers
have ruined the business by their
greed and dishonesty.
Silver men should not relax their
zeal and efforts through TIE cries of
the cid party papers that the pros
pect for silver is bright that free
coinage is near at hand. : and allsuch
nonsense sprung in the interest Of
golIbues to lull the silver men into z
fancicd security. and to induce them

Idaho. News Miner. The outlook Tor

straddle. or hum and haw, or evade
the inevitable. Both Of the old par
ties to-day are ruptured badly, and
the silver question is causing the rup-

The Bakersfield Californian says
that the officers OF Douglas county,
this state. are settirg a good example
to the alleged detectives Of San Fran

his movements. The officers did not
start out with the theory that only a
certain individual could have commit
ted the crime. and then bend every eff
fort to convict him. as in the Durrant
case, but took the more sensible ground
Of weighing the evidence against all
toward whom suspicion was directed
By so doing the real guilty man has
been given little opportunity 10 destroy
the evidence against him.

child, where she had commissions and
died. While dying she said that Mr.
Winthorpe an officer Of the cemetery
gave her a pill Her child confirms
the story. Strychnine was found in
her stomach, Winthrope said he
found her in commissions but gave
nothing. The child said that he
give her mother a pill and took one
himself. but spit it out into his
hand and dropped It A search was
made for the pill where he dropped il

When the Nevada Republicans ere
talking about their fidelity % silver
and that the party is unanimous for
the white metal all over the United
States, the Oregon Republicans rudely
shock the story. by declaring in their
State Convention unequivoc lily
against the use of silver as money,
and coming ont squarely fol- the gold
standard. The Oregon Republicans
are honest enough t. express their
real sentiments. bTt tn, Nevada Re
