doubts his own faith-Or rather want
Of faith. He says: "And vet I am
not sure that We ought to mourn for
the dead. | do not know which is tot-
ter-life or death. And it may ta
that death is the greatest gift that
ever came from natures OIan hands
we do not know. There is one thing
Of which / am certain, and that is
that if we could live forever here we
would care nothing for each other.
The fact that we must die, the fact
that the feast must end, brings our
hearts together and treads out the
weeds between the paths. And so it
may be after all, that love is a Lille
flower that grows OF the crumbling
edge of the grave. 50 it may be that
were it not for death there would be
not love, and without love all life
would be a curse.
The Record Union thus gives the
California Knights Templar a sharp
rap on their noisy pilgrimage to Eos
ton. 1t says:
The appropriateness Of this noisy
revelry on the part of delegations
from this State should long since have
leen apparent by the more mode t
and tccoming conduct Of other States,
What other State Of this Union has
ever made or attempted to make such
an asinine exhibition Of its egotism
and it's pr~ovincialism as to have the
delegations which have gone from
this STATE to conventions and other as
semblages at the East? If there is
any point to be gained by this exhibit
ton Of selt-consciOusness it's value
would have suggested itself to some
other commonwealth. To be a citizen
Of California should be esteemed
an honor; but noisy rOwdyism will
not enforce upon the world acceptance
Of that fact.
Your Confederate button will en-
title you to recognition and a place
around our campfires," was the word
ing of the invitation from the Union
to the Confederate veterans at Louis
vile, Ky. SO times, manners and men
change, while the great truths and
principles remain forever the same.
The petition, Forgive US our tres
passes, as we forgive those who tres
pass against u.s." has lost none of its
force Of meaning in the more than
eighteen hundred years that men
have uttered it. 1t has gained indeed
4 greater force and a wider meaning.
Mr., J. P%ierpont Morgan observes
that the bond syndicate has already
fulfilled it's agreement with President
Cleveland. Certainly Mr.. Cleveland
has fulfilled his contract with the
bond syndicate. Neither side seems
TO have considered the people in the
matter, but perhaps that makes little
difference. The people must pay
however the deal turns. Secure in
the knowledge Of the fact, Mr.. Cleve-
land and Mr.. Morgan could negotiate
with minds unclouded by lesser on
siderations.
The ch%eapness of corn might afford
some satisfaction to the 'crime of '73'
fellows if it were not for the fact that
corn was just a little chea. T in 1873
than it is now.
These statements are frequently
made in the columns of the gold pa
pers, but they never print any stats

The South African bubble in Lon
don is compared to George Laws Mis-
sissippi imitation and the South Sea
bubble in England some years ago
There is. however, a basis for the
South African craze, which will pre-.
vent a complete collapse.
Ezeta, the famous Salvador pa.
triOt, is a high roller and 10Y owes the
California hotel $4,000 which he car
not pay. He tells the landlord that as
sOon as he can start a revolution he
can get the funds to settle up.
California is having a regular e'ee
tric boom, Carson, by running a tun
mel into Lake Tahoe, could have thu
finest electric plant in the country
All we need is the enterprise,
The Reno Journal is wasting valu
able time when it takes any notice o
the Enterprise diatribes on the Silve
party. The Silver patty needs n,
defense from such attacks.
The corn crop this year is two bill
lion and a half BUSHELS, and it i
proposed to use it for fuel in the Mid
