TRUE REPORTS.

All reports speak OF the striking fea-
lures and notable events which are being
worked out at the State Fair, which is
now in progress at Sacramento, These
events, says the RtTat Press, are not as
agricultural as they might be, but they
suit the populace and no doubt attract
far more people to the examination OF in
dustrial products than would otherwise
be brought together. In the farm
features, however, the fair seems to be
well equipped. and new methods of dis

tSan Jose Mercury.

Probably but small proportion of the
people In this and other cities OF Califor-
MIA know anything about the street serial
bond system, by which streets can be i'm
proved without making an excessive de-
mand upon property-owners. The
RECORD / MON OF Sacramento has been
endeavOrlng to convince the residents Of
that city of the great merit of the sys-
tenn, which has been embodied in the
laws OF the State; which has been SUCCESS
fully tried in Buffalo and several other
cities i'll New York, and which has al
ready been adopted by two cities in our
own Stale. Considering the complica-
tions i'll which Santa Clara street is in
VOWED, it might be well tor the city au-
thorities and for the property-owners in
san Jose to give the subject their earnest
attention.
AS the RECORD UNION says, no. one of
the objections to which other bonds may
possibly be open applies to the serial sys
tenn. IL is simply method of having
street work done without depressing
property 1t is the inslallment
system of paying for good streets, and

The general outlook for an ex-
cellent corn crop was never better
in Kentucky than at the present
time. Early planted corn would
make a very fair crop without
much rain, but il would require
several good ones to make a large
yield. In some States the drought
still continues. In Western Ohio
and in parts OF Pennsylvania,
Southern Texas and portions %
Kansas and Nebraska-but from

will equal that Of 1891. The acre

The displacement OF labor by
machinery is well illustrated in
the construction Of the big drain
age canal at Chicago. There are
three monster conveying machines
that do the work OF 1000 men each,
besides the number required TO
operate them, two steam shovels
doing the work Of 300 men each,
two steam drills doing the work Of
100 men each, and five compressed
air drills that do the work OF 250
meh. This makes a total dis
placement Of 1850 men. The sub
stitution OF machinery for manual
labor is introducing new and ser
iOus problems into the science Of
economics. In the REIMBURSEMENT
Of labor TO new and rapidly chang
ing conditions, many laboring mel
must necessarily suffer, and this
variation in the relation OF capita
and labor is responsible in a con
siderable degree for the disturb
ances which arise with such de
pIOrable frequency. We are pass
ing now through a transition peri
cd and the coming generation will
probably witness its completion
and will be able to appreciate it
results.
