IL was Patrick Henry who said: ''Give
me liberty or give me DEATH" and anoth-
or old saw reads: Get all you can and
keep all you get,' and another says: 60
ye into my vineyard and work. The
words spoken by p. Henry, Esq, do him
honor, for liberty is a priceless boon
that can only be obtained through great
hardship, many privations and much
self -sacrifice, but when once gained it is
priceless, and yet, how many people
abuse it, and how many fail to appre.
ciate it's great advantages. IL it were
priced more highly, how few selfish peo-
| pie would adhere to the second maxim
OF "get all you a and keep all you

opportunity there is to give at the pres

liberty the most is the man who tappre.

The next four or five weeks will be a

Sutter Fort Conditions.

EDS. RECORD-UNION: | was up TO your
city some little time back to meet few
friends of mine on their way out from the
East, and who. by the way. have not
been on this side of the continent since
the early sos, and they were greatly i'm
pressed by the many improvements that
have taken place i'll and around the Capt.
tai City OF this great and growing State
since that early day. In the course of our
observations we went out to Suffers old
rancho, as we then called II, and while
we were permitted to enter the grounds,
we were unable to enter the historic old
building as il was locked against ali
comers, but enough was seen TO call back
to our memories many "reminiscences Of
the long gone past. My friends, as we'll
as myself noticed that very little has
been done in the way OF preserving many
of the old curios of the earlier pioneer
days, or at least there was nothing in
sight but the walls and building To at
tract our special attention. This would
seem to me to be lack of proper atten-
tion on the part OF those in charge to
put the place Ia an attractive form. so as
TO properly call the attention of the sight
seers to the historical surroundings of
the place. Certainly the State has appro-
priated quite sufficient sum of money
already TO stock the building and grounds
III an admirable manner with mem entOeS
from every cline, and especially of
things that pertain to the earlier periods
of our State. l imagine that if the State
officers who are sponsors for this public
trust had proper amount Of interest in
their work this would have been accom-
plished ere this.
You of Sacramento should be proud of
this spot, as it is and always will be one of
the greatest attractions on this coast, as
trip TO this golden shore is not complete
without seeing 1t; but 1t will never be
what it should be till more interest is
taken In its Identification.
Upon our arrival at the depot to tax @
our home train q small pamphlet was
handed US with cut OF the State Capitol,
also fine illustration of the Sutter Fort,
and upon reading its contents in referring
to the old fort, it reads that the fort was
restored in QS94) through the efforts OF
the Native Sons OF the Golden West; but
in this pamphlet l failed to see even
word OF commendation for the one above
all others who is justly entitled to the
credit OF this work, and all of your Sacra-
mentans know him-General J. g. Mar
tine OF your city. When he undertook
this work OF restoration back in 1889 l
we'll remember, as / was one of the first
TO respond with money donation to his
his appeal for money to buy the property,
that he had but little assistance-except
from the press of the State-and in Justice
to him that pamphlet should read through
his efforts first, and then the Native Sons
of the Golden West.

That Frutt.Growers, Meeting.

EDS. RECoRD-UNIoN: In to-day's issue,
in your report of the fruit-growers' meet
ing held in the American River District,
you stale that the resolutions concerning
the consign ment of fruit to be sold on
the Erie Pier. New York City. were
passed. The facts in the case are that
when the vote was taken the question
was raised as to whether majority voted
in favor of their adoption, and recount
was demanded but not made. The vote
in favor of the resolutions was made up
principally by those who are under finan-
cial obligations to one OF the principal
shippers In the State. 1t is also fact
that from 90 to 20 per cent. of the fruit
shipped from the district in carload lots
this season has been shipped through
local firm that does not Consign to the
West Shore Pier. This fact speaks more
plainly as to what the sentiment of the
growers of the district ID regarding the
great question at issue than the passage
of a wastebaske of resolutions. This
action on their part shows that they be-
lieve that they are capable of managing
their own business affairs and object to
turning them over to those who seem SO
anxious to assume that responsibility.

Sunday Evening Concerts.

EDS. RECORD UNION: Permit me to
say that 1 think it exceedingly unkind to
have these concerts on Sunday evening.
1t is unkind toward the Christians. Is 1t
supposed that Christians do not ap-
preciate and enjoy music? Why
should these concerts be held
at time when conscientious
Christians cannot attend them? Just as
they are true to their churches they can
not get the benefit Of a concert given on
Sabbath evening.
Now, the Christians open their doors
every Sabbath and take in hundreds of
children who do not belong to them and
without any remuneration teach them
truth; teach them to be pure and honest,
gentle and courteous, and all that is ad-
mlrable. When we are trying to be a
blessing IN every way to the community
why should we be treated so unkindly.
just as II we are not worth considering?
Even you who get up these Sunday
evening concerts do not respect those
who are so untrue to their churches as to
forsake them for the concerts. That kind
OF disloyalty does not commend itself to
any right-thinking person. Whatever
may be said. it is not kind to the Christ
lans to have these concerts on Sunday
evening. x. M. STEVENSON.

State.
The Criminal Was q Desperate Bank
Robber and a Murderer
Also.

NJ. P. Fisher. an amateur detective of
this city, yesterday arrested man
named John Isom in the Lafayette Sa-
loon for murder and bank robbery.

Edward Goss, Jap" and Will Brown
and John Dunn attempted to rob the
bank at Cayucos. San Luis Obispo

Cashier Semmler. took him to the bank
and compelled him to open the vault.
While they were preparing to take
away what money they could, Semmler
saw some citizens passing the bank and
called to them for help. They rushed
into the bank and battle between them
and the robbers ensued.
win Brown was shot and killed, and
his brother, Jap" was taken prisoner.
The latter afterward committed suicide in
the Jail at Paso Robles.
Isom, Goss and Dunn were pursued
into the Careso Mountains, where battle
was fought between them and Sheriff
o. Neii of san Luis Oblspo County and
posse. One of the posse was shot. The
robbers made their escape. lsom then
came 10 Northern California.
In Wheatland on the 30Lh of last March
n
lace was shot by man known as Will
lam Barrett. Wallace was taken to the
home OF his brother III this city, where
he died from the effects of the wound. 1t
was afterward ascertained that the name
of the man who shot Wallace was not
Jarrett but William lsom.
Detective Fisher received a picture
from the City Marshal at Wheatland and
it was alterward concluded that il was
that OF John Ison. From the 1som in
ial at Wheatland, for the murder of
| Wallace, 1t was ascertained that John
! Isoin had been employed III this city. He
could not be found here, but was traced
to Scott Schaefer's ranch near Franklin.
| Still he could not be found. He was traced
back 10 this city. and from here TO Santa
kosa Angels Camp, Calaveras County,
and thence TO Grass Valley.
! Finally he was located in this city.
| Fisher kept a strict watch on him, and
Yesterday afternoon found Isom in the
| Lafayette Saloon.
The detective grasped him by both
wrists and commanded him to surrender.
| He did so without resisting, and was
| taken 10 the police station and locked up.
| Isom admits he is the man wanted.
Deputy Sheriff j. f. Eubanks of San
| Luis Obispo County arrived III this city
last evening with couple OF en- routes
for State Prison, and when he returns he
| will take Isom with him. The Deputy
Sheriff identities the prisoner as the man
wanted.

State Board of Health Report.

DR.. j. r. Laine. Secretary of the State
Board of Health, in his report for the
month of June, says as follows:
Reports from 90 cities, towns, villages
and sanitary districts, aggregaiing q
population OF 49,, 023, show mortality of
465-a death rate of l.07 per thousand for
June, or II. IS per thousand per annum.
There were l04 deaths from consump-
ton, l9 from pneumonia, . from bron-
chitis, l from congestion of the lungs, 5
from diarrhea and dysentery, Is from
cholera infantum, 3S from other diseases
of the stomach and bowels, two from
diphtheria, l from Group, from scarIa
tina. l from measles, = from whooping-
cough, Z from typhoid fever. from
malarial fevers, 3 from eerebro-s spinal
fever, L from cancer, l from erysipelas.
IS from diseases OF the heart, from alco-
holism and 2l2 from all other causes, 2 of
which were from la grippe.
San Francisco, with its $50, 900 popula-
ton, has no report at this date for June,
1895, which in a measure alters the usual
percentage of deaths, as we'll as making
a large discrepancy in the population re-
ported from.
