They Arrive in This City on Their
Way to New York.
A young man 19 years of age, named
Dick Wilmington. arrived in the city last
evening, having walked from Dillon,
Yolo County, during the day.
He started from San Francisco Satur-
day night, carrying a sack containing a
large yellow cat. and bearing painted on
it the inscription, 'Dick Wilmington and
His Cat-San Francisco to New York on
Foot"
The inscription tells the story, for, as
he states, he has wager to walk across
the continent, carrying his feline COM
panion, and arriving there within six
months. He carries with him an auto
graph book, in which he expects to OBJ
tain the autographs of distinguished peo-
pie along the way. He also carries small
book in which he keeps q list of places
passed through, and the distance travelled
each day, and in which he expects the
Postmaster in each town he passes
through to sign and af1ix the date.

TERRIBLY INLQRED

a Child Mangled by Vicious Dog in
Yolo County.
A telephone message from the Wood
land MaiL to the RECORD UNION last
night states that child of Mr.. and Mrs.
a. NJ. Britt-who are well known in Sac
ramento-was terribly injured yesterday
by vicious dog.
The brute sprang upon the child and
fastened its teeth in the little ones face,
cutting through and splitting its nose,
also tearing open its under lip and remoy-
ing piece of il.
The family were visiting fourteen miles
from Woodland, and the little sufferer
was brought in for surgical treatment.
The child being but q years old, it was
decided not to administer an aneSthelic,
therefore the operation of sewing up the
wounds was terribly painful. Itrequired
two men to hold the child while the sur
geon used his needle.

VOICE OF THE PRESS.
[Colusa SUM-


The ideal party would be one steering
between these two, but such thing can
not be. The Republican ship is not likely
to go any closer 10 the dangerous shore,
but it sometimes appears that the Demo-
cratic vessel would strike on some sunken
rock over on the side of socialism. In
deed, all that can be said in justification
of deserting it at this time is that it
has scraped the bottom on that shore. The
elections OF to-day, however, hardly
form an index of what they will be two
years from now, except that the pendu-
lum in its backward swing is not likely
to sweep further than the Democratic
notch. 1t is not likely to stay at full
sweep on the Republican side. The Re-
publican Congress is coming in and if
times get no better that Congress will get
the blame; if they do Cleveland will get
the credit, and this, too, without any
traceable responsibility.

RECIPROCITY.
IColusa SUM-

Home industry, home traffic. There is
nothing like it. Everything in the world
that can be produced at home should be
SO produced, and every dollars worth of
goods ought to be bought of home mer-
chants. The home merchants ought to
fix to handle the surplus of every kind OF
product at the very best possible figure,
and to this end there should be home
organization; not separate, but all inter-
ests combined. The farmer who pro-
duces all he consumes, except clothes
and groceries, is cash customer.
and he ought to have an understand
ing with his merchant that his surplus
snail be handled on good terms in
consideration for his cash trade With
such an understanding there would be
prosperity all around. And especially is
it entirely out of the question TOR people
doing business in q town to try to avoid
patroniZing teilow-business men. The
dry goods man should patronize the
hardware merchant, and vice versa all
round.

The executive committee in chargerof
the arrangements for finding employ
nient on land for some OF the idle work
ingmen of the city, has stopped tecefv-

to be furnished with work in that way.

these to work. Not over half enough
land has thus far been received, but the
committee expects that an abundance
will be placed at its disposal before
long. q.
The committee now desires to receive
bids for blowing the land in the Diff

will have to be so much per acre for the
work. If it proves of any advantage,

so that any person with teams can

the cost of furnishing the plows The

CIVIL RIGHTS CASE.
Judge TwOhy Hears Wheaton,s
Complaint Against Mcdonald

N"5S WHY He8rS wheatOn1S
Complaint Against Mcdonald.
The case of the state against Louis
Mcdonald, proprietor of the Cream
erie restaurant, for refusing to serve
j. Frank Wheaton, a colored man, with
duly advertised nourishment. was
taken under advisement by Judge
Twohy yesterday morning. Wheaton
is a special clerk in the legislature and
an orator of reputation.
The municipal court resembIed a.
meeting of the Lime Kiln club. Cen
tlemen of color were there from every
learned profession in st. Paul and Min
neapolis.
Mcdonald maintained that it was
the waiter girl who refused to wait
upon Wheaton, in spite of all orders.
1t was set forth, on the other hand.
that Mcdonald did not offer to serve
Wheaton himself, and that, in other
respects, he did not exhibit towards
the latter the courtesy which was his
due.
The judge felt the weight of the
prisoners crime, and was in doubt
whether to hold him to the grand iury.
He reserved his decision until the after
noon, and then again reserved it until
the 18th inst
