q resume of facts with which every Cali
fornian is familiar, the whole illustrated
by most valuable map on the first page,
which in itself is a sermon on California.
Send to-day's RECORD UNION East in

California of the transmission of electrical
energy to one of it's chief cities.

TIE ELECTRICAL CARNIVAL

The successful carrying out of all the
details of yesterdays Electrical Carnival
proves the capacities of the committees
in charge and entities them to the warm
thanks and cordial congratulations of our
people.
The brilliant display of last night was
a fitting supplement to the splendid pro-
cession of the daytime by the Native
Sons and Daughters, in honor of Admis-
sion Day-a demonstration with its aux
iliary exercises of which the order has
every reason to be proud. Yet the night Ell
feet is entitled to far higher rank than the
supplemental. No such magnificent
illumination has been witnessed in this
State, or on this coast. Nor. indeed. can
we ascertain that in the United States
achieved an illumination level with that
of last night. 1t was the first attempt in
the world with movable electric floats
lighted from q fixed plant. There
have been brilliant illuminations
at expositions and by societies and
fleets and the like, but none of which
we can find any record that was a
community effort and was wholly cleo
trical. as was that of last night.
The taste, elegance and brilliancy OF
the ouse, street and float electrical deco
rations reflect the highest credit upon
every person who had to do with their
designing and execution and stand to the
credit of Sacramento in such high de-
gree that the memory of last nights ef-
fects will never fade.
Our local columns give a fair and truth
fully-stated account OF the details, and
some idea of the wonderful brilliancy OF
the illuminations, but they do not convey
an adequate idea of the splendor of the
scene. Nor would it he possible to do so
in newspaper accounts prepared 80 inn
mediately after such an occasion. The
work might well engage the best abilities
of the most skilled descriptive writer's,
in the calm of days of devotion to such q
task.
But the meaning of the resplendence OF
last night rises far superior to its scenic
grandeur; it eclipses the wondrous beauty
of architectural piles outlined in living
light and crowned by wreaths of light
ming whipped into the service of the won
dering eye. 1t casts into the shadow the
electrical flash OF avenues of light, and
streets burning with the subtle and unde-
fined agency that flashed along the wires
from Folsom. The scene was indescriba-
bly beautiful and wondrously brilliant,
but, we repeat. the meaning of 1t all
reaches far away into the future, the dawn
of which gilds the housetops of Sacra-
mento already. and foretells the rising
sun of prosperity stimulated, industry

electrical engineers predict that at no distant
day even New York and Chicago may be thus
supplied.
the adage that it is the unexpected that oc-
ours. so in the future 1t Is not Impossible
that transmission plants OF various Kinds
| may from the winds and waters furnish an
overf1owing supply OF energy, thus forever
setting at rest the minds of those who fear an
exhaustion OF the coal fields.
But at Sacramento we have dem onstra-
tion of long-distance transmission that is
wholly satisfactory, and is beset by no
such difficulties as trouble the Niagara
people. We have no large coal fields
that can be worked SO as to bring steam
power to the possible level of cost that
the electrical power cannot compete with.
The area of country that is within one
hundred miles of Sacramento is poverty
stricken for cheap steam fuel. and is SO
likely to remain as compared with the
water fuel" that gives energy to the dy-
namos at Folsom and at Newcastle.
Here then we have every reason TO sup
port our expectation that power without
from electrical works for a section OF
country the most fertile on the globe, the
most richly endowed by nature in the
matter of soil. climate and topography,
and capable of supporting from the pro-
ductive capacity of the soil more than
two millions of people. Whether the
transmission of the Folsom or the New
castle power will exceed the mileage be-
tween Folsom and this city economically,
is a matter that has been but little con-
sidered. 1t is enough for Sacramentans
to know that her immediate vicinity is
now enjoying what we have every reason
to believe ia a special advantage In the
matter of artificial lighting, heating and
power uses.
While we have for nearly two months
been using the electrical power in our
shops and houses, proving the pudding
literally by the eating, there is approach
ing the city from another direction the
lines of another electrical plant that prom
ises to deliver power over wires covering
some twenty eight miles of transmission,
perhaps even a greater distance. From
the present plant the distance il as the
bee flies about twenty eight miles. So
that Sacramento will have double assur-
ance, within a year, probably, as she has
demonstration singly already. that there
is reality in economic long-distance
transmission of electrical energy for
power purposes.

A sELF-ED1TING DIAGRAM.

The attention of readers is called to the
map-diagram on the first page of to-day's
RECORD UNION. 1t will be seen that it is
self-editing, and that in itself it consti
tutes a very complete exposition of the
topography, the resources and the COM
mercial advantages of the Sacramento
area of the State. All the counties within
one hundred miles of this city are out
lined and the productive character of the
soil in each section is clearly marked,
with the varieties of products to be
credited to each.
This very valuable map-diagram, while
it does not claim to be exhaustive, very
clearly sets out the chief claims of Central
and Northern California upon home
seekers. 1t shows the extent Of the great
valleys within one hundred miles, the
course OF the rivers the early fruit belts,
the mountain ranges, the coast valleys,
the timber sections, the mineral spring
regions. the grain lands, the berry, melon
and vegetable lands, the coal deposits,
the chief cities and towns, all the lines Of
railway built and proposed. the electrical
power transmission lines to Sacramento,
the navigable stretches of the rivers, the
marvellous early fruit Capay Valley, the
Georgetown sugar and yellow pine belts,
the mining regions, dairy sections, and
the stone locations: the bays of Suisun,
San Pablo and San Francisco, and much
toward illumining the mind OF the East
ern reader and do more than ample cts
and essays or newspaper or magazine
pictures to convince him of the verify of
our claims for California.

Bose James not Seriously Wounded His
Story of the AffaIr-No Arrests
Have Been Made.

Bose James the negro shot Friday
by LOTUS is doing very nicely and
will recover. On examination of his
injuries DR.. Carr found that he had
received wounds on the leg and body
from bird shot, one through and
through the body from winchester
and several on the arm, body and
head from blows.
James claims there were three
parties shooting at him and that
after he was downed they fell upon,
and beat him. The bruises indicate
the truthfulness of his statement.
He says nothing about his own
actions in the premises.
Owing to the fact that all parties
concerned claim Indian freedman
citizenship no arrests by the Paris
authorities have or will be made. 1t
is claimed if there is any prosecution
it will be in the Indian courts.
