the action of the Government officials;
but this accusation was wholly unjust.
In sll time the rules of practice estab-
lished by the Department of the Interior
for the determination of these questions
have been onerous. The utmost care has
been exercised to have the physical facts
clearly presented and the evidence of the
actual condition of the land as clearly GER
titled to the Commissioner Of the GEN.
eral Land Office. Mr.. Ricketts, denun-
citation of the authorities at Washington
was therefore without justification, and
was as impolitic from the standpoint OF
the mining interests of the State as it was
unjustihable in fact.
Practically. the convention set aside the
entire action of its Mineral Lands Com
mittee. AS already indicated, it made no
provision for carrying on the contest or
for making an examination Of the lands
in the field, and it Invested the present
Mineral Lands Committee of all power in
the premises by declaring that it pos
sessed no right of final determination,
vesting the Executive Committee with
supervisorial powers over its conduct.
In very broad and very exact sense,
therefore. the action of the Mineral Lands
Committee of last year was repudiatsd.
If the Mineral Lands Committee had
been more wisely conservative, had
manifested a broader and more COM
promising spirit, and avoided the ap-
pointment to act on its own behalf as an
impartial commissioner of prejudiced
partisan; had. in short, conducted the
negotiations for an amicable adjust
ment in q more wise and compromising
spirit, vexed question might have been
placed in the way of satisfactory solu-
ton and much public good might have
been accomplished.

It's largely matter of health. The
bloom and glow of health go far toward
bringing beauty. A clear skin, bright
eyes, red lips and the vivacity which
bodily good feeling brings, will make
even a homely woman handsome.
Half of the women one meets are semi
invalids Failure to heed the warnings
of outraged nature-failure to give the
help needed by the most delicate and
sensitive organs-little troubles ignored
until they have become dominant-dis-
ease allowed every chance to spread and
gain settled seat-these things bring
about the sunken, circled eyes, the hol-
low cheeks, the pale and sallow skin,
the fabby, strengthless flesh, which
characterize the appearance of the wo-
man who suffers from "female weak
ne,s."
DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescription has
cured thousands of suffering women. 1t
is a perfected specific for the troubles
peculiar to them. It eradicates the dis
ease, stops the dragging, life-sapping
drain, and in a perfectly rational, nat
ural way, builds up the wasted strength.
1t will bring buoyant health. 1t will put
roses into pale faces solid flesh in
sunken places. 1t does away with the
huiniliating examinations and " local
treatment " so much dreaded by mod
estly sensitive women. For thirty years,
it has been successfully prescribed by DR..

Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute at

ACCORDING to high Corean officials the
assassination of the Queen OF Corea was
q blessing to the people and to be APP
proved. She is said to have been corrupt,
an sbuser of privileges, seller Of titles,
an mbezzler of public funds, a tyrant in
the use of power and bulldozer gem
orally; therefore she richly deserved
death. This may all be, but Oriental
methods of disposing of unwelcome
peoples by any possible Oriental apology
for assassination. The Queen might have
been deprived of power without having
her light put out by assassins.

The State Board of Health is consider
ably stirred up over the pollution of the
Sacramento River. 1t is of one mind that
the drainage OF cities and towns into the
river, the dumpings of prisons and fac
tories. the deposits from boats and fishing
floats, and the like, render the water not
only unfit for domestic US, but that it Is
by such pollution also made the vehicle
for the dissemination of the seeds of dan
gerous disease. This is othing new; and
yet old man Silurian of Sacramento de-
clares the river water ''the best in the
world" he has fused it nigh onto forty
years, and is still alive" More's the
pity. friend; mors's the pity.

THE Commercial Herald of San Fran
cisco deplores the persistence of the
calamity howlers who are keeping the
anti-railroad agitation hot. 1t begs that
peace be made, and that the assaults upon
the railroad transporters cease. 1t points
out that all this jower is seriously dstri-
mental to the State, and insists that the
thing cease. But, neighbor, what would
the demagogues and political hucksters
do then, poor things? They entertain
the notion that they must live, and that is
only possible by stirring up the railroad
people and sowing the public mind with
all manner of falsehood, misrepresenta-
ton and sophistry. Cease assaults, and
come down to business sense in dealing
with carriers by rail, and the vocation of
the whole batch of demagOgues and
calamity screschers will be gone.

IN the letter addressed by the Anti

Johnson, it ia set forth that improvement
of the navigsble streams has nothing to
do with hydraulic mining. The former
is in the interest of all the people. The
latter is private business, just as is mer-
chandising or shoemaking. The Federal
Government is in duty bound to conserve

RAILROAD Commissioner LaRue busies
himself running around to conventions
and declaring that he is engaged in fight
with the railroad. For semi-judicial
officer whose duty 1t is to stand as fairly
for the railroad as for the user of the rail-
road, his methods are, to put 1t mildly,
rather surprising.

MORE IRRESPONSIBLE ASSERTION

MORE IRRESPONSIBLE ASSERTION.
Justice Brewer, In deciding the cele-
brated Texas Railroad Commissioner
case, declared that it is unnecessary to
decide as an absolute rule that failure to
produce some profit to those who have
invested their money in the building of a
road is conclusive that the tariff is unjust
He cited hypothetical cases wherein
needless expenditure of money in the
construction of the road might be pleaded
against reduction of rate, or extraya-
gance and wasteful management, or
enormous salaries might be 8 reason for
general loss. Under these conditions
he declared that rate below that which
would yield profit on the capital in
vested. if 1t was unwisely and injudi-
ciously invested, might be maintained.
In quoting this the Examiner says that
Messrs. LaRue and Stanton contend that
if Justice Brewer, who wrote this opin-
ion, had had the Southern Pacific system
III mind he could not have better de-
scribed the situation. Messrs. LaRue and
Stanton should be careful just now az to
the character of the assertions they make.
These matters are to undergo judicial
scrutiny, and it will be in order for Com
missioners LaRue and Stanton in the
highest tribunal of the country to show
that the Southern Pacific is overbonded;
that its management is extravagant; and
that the capital represented by the bonds
is not entitled to interest Messrs. La
Rue and Stanton ought to remem Der that
they are not irresponsible new spaper
scribblers, but have been dignified by
election TO a high and important office,
and that when they join with a newspa-
per in irresponsible viliications of this
kind they become simply irresponsible
vilifers.
The railroads are to have the opportu-
nifty i'll court which was denied them by
Messrs. LaRue and Stanton. a due OBJ
ssrvance OF common sense and decency
on their part will perhaps sdmonish
them to remain quiet and abide the result
OF the issue which their ill-advised action
has precipitated on the country.
