Abuse of q PriyiIana

pen to be men of wealth, with having Sc

De resented ey the people of these States
with indignity. Is it not possible rkst
the citizens of other States would defend
their Senators just as Indignantly? These
wholesale assaults upon the integrity of
public officers is only an insolent abuse
OF the privileges granted by the liberty
OF speech and of the press, and exercised
by those who have an idea or think they
have, that because man happens to be-
come wealthy he must necessarily be a
thief. 1t would be much more patri otic
and dignitied to defend the character Of

reason for condemnation.-Nsws Letter.

He Swears That the Soldiers Were Not
Necessary During the Strike.
Harry Knox, the A. r. U. strike
leader, testified in the Federal Court in
San Francisco yesterday that the presence
of the soldiers was unnecessary in this
city last July.
His friend Worden says the strikers
had their men all selected to go to the
steamer landing and when the boat ar
rived with the regulars to throw dyna-
mite aboard and destroy the entire army
of about |, 400 men.
Mr.. Knox was at the head of the COM
mittee managing the strike. Perhaps he
thought that would be an excellent
method of getting rid of the "unneces-
sary' bluecoats. However, it has doubt
less occurred to him by this time that he
never was and is not now necessity

Street Improvement Bonds.

EDS. RECORD-UN | have read
good deal about bonding the streets here
after to be improved but l must confess
my ignorance as to the meaning or
modus, operandi of this measure. Would
it be asking too much of you, Mr.. Editor to
state for the benefit of your many readers
just what the law reads in reference to
these bonds? General MARITIME advises us
| to go ahead and fix up the streets and
pay off the debt in this way, and L have
not the slightest doubt but that his lnten-
tions are of the best in advising this, but
he does not state the details OF his plan.
He may understand its working but l
and many others do not. On the face OF
this proposition it looks an excellent one,
but that is not sufficient. Let the law be
published so that it will be plain to un-
derstand aud If it is as stated. can see
no reason why good deal of street work
couldn't be done this spring and summer.
This would give a good number of our
unemployed something to do and at the
same time be making our streets passabIe
for the future through wet and dry sea-
sons, and the money so spent Will not be
wasted, as every dime OF 1t Will come back
in one way or another to the merchants
Of this city. We have some tine streets
that will compare favorably with more
populous cities, but yet great deal OF the
residence portion is in the mud" and
likely to be until some easy way of pay
ment is devised other than the present
one. Where 1 came from the Board of
Councilmen usually attended to matters
of this kind, but from my observations
since my residence here [ should judge
that the officials governing this city were
of the opposite turn of mind.

Speaker Lynch in the chair.
The primary election law was taken up
again and Dixon offered an amendment
to the committee amendments already
adopted, which he said was prepared by
the Republican State Central COMMITTEES
and while it had been intended to apply
only to Republicans it would also apply
to Democrats. 1t was not prepared by
any kelys, or Peppers, or Gators, OF
misfit Barkers, but by men who knew
what they were about.
The amendment is yoluminous. and is
intended to take the place of the bill pre-
sented by the committee.
Brusie in the chair
Spencer said that the substitute was a
bill OF the bosses, and quoted from il in
support OF his assertion. 1t was. he said.
simply a continuation OF the present
state of affairs In San Francisco. His
own bill was in accordance with the re-
quests made by the Civic Federation who
wish to relieve San Francisco from the
rule of the bosses. A committee from
that body was heard before the commit
tee and the same privilege was granted to
Pepper, Kelly and others, who are also
citizens, and had right to be heard as
well.

NOTIFICATIONS OF SHEEP.
An Animal Tha Would Not Survive
Mans Extinction.

An Animal That Would Not Survive
Mans Extinction.
The sheep has undergone more modi-
hcations at the hands of man than any
other animal. All the rest Of our
domestic animals have proved their
capacity to reaSsume the habits of
their wild ancestors, but no once
tanned sheep has taken to a life of in
dependence. This, writes DIR. Louis
Robinson in North American Review,
is at first surprising, because many
kinds, such as the Scotch mountain
sheep, and those upon the high lands
of Chilli and Patagonia, manage to live
an thrive with very little aid from
their masters. Yet it is found that
even the hardy pampas sheep cannot
hold his own when that aid is wanting.
1t man were to become extinct in
South America, the sheep would not
survive him half a dozen years. There
are three chief reasons for this. and all
of them are of peculiar interest.
In h first place, the sheep is, as a
rule, o timid and defenseless animal,
and at the same time is neither swift
nor cunning. 1t falls an easy prey to
h meanest of the wolf tribe. A single
coyote or a fox terrier dog could de-
stroy a thousand in a few days. Then
it is found that the, young lambs and
their mothers require especial care and
nursing. If they do not get it at the
critical time, the flock owner will lose
them by the hundred. 1t is a common
thing in the Southdowns for the
shepherd not to leave his flock day or
night during the whole lambing sea-
son. Lastly, scarcely any modern
sheep shed their wool naturally, in the
same way that the horse sheds it's thick
winter coat.

Of milk, ono tablespoonful of lard, one
tablespoonful Of sugar, two table
spoonfulls of salt and one yeast cake.
The ingredients, which were first
thoroughly mixed and then kneaded
ten minutes, were raised over night
in a covered bread dish. In the
morning the bread was kneaded ten
minutes and then made into three

Some Queer Specimens.

Take a walk through any of III
large cemeteries and you will pass the
last resting place Of the man who
blew into a gun to see if it was loaded.
A little further down the hillside is
buried the crank who tried to see how
close he could pass in front Of a 10Y
ing train. In strolling about you pass
the modest monument Of the hired
girl who started the fire with kero-
sene, and the grass covered knoll that
overs what is left of the boy that put
a corr cob under the mules tail. The
tall shaft of the man who blew out
the gas casts a shadow across the
bosom of the boy who tried to jump a
moving railroad train. Side by side
the etneral creature who always had
her corsets laced in the last hole, and
the intellectual idiot who rode a bicy-
Gle nine miles IN ten minutes, sleep
on undisturbed. Here reposes the
remains of a young doctor who took
a dose OF his own medicine, and just
over the way there, with the toe of a
shoe box driven down by his head
lies Il rich old man who married a
young wife. Away yer by the side
gate reposes the boy who went fish
ing on Sunday and the old woman
who kept strychnine side by side with
her baking powder in the cupboard.
The man who stood in front of the
moving machine to oil the sickle is
quiet now, and rests by the side Of
the careless brakeman who fed him
self to a seventy ton engine. The
fool killer is gathering them in one
by one, still he is sometimes behind
on his orders.-Ex.
