bakersfield Californian.1
The Woodland AalE tells how one of
the most hardened old sinners of that
place was converted by eating single
toadstool. which brought him to deaths
door. Please ship a carload of toadstools
down here at once. At one apiece, there
would be just enough to go around.
OUR ORANGE ORCHARDS.
Butte County Pendulum.l
We wish some of our cyclone-stricken
friends in tho Last would come here and
look upon our orange orchards. The
orange is an evergreen. although it loses
its leaves each year. While the old leaves
are falling off the new ones are coming
on. and one does not realize the change
until it is over. Around Palermo there
are some OF the handsomest orange
orchards in the State. and it is sight
worth going miles to see. The crop is a
sure one and there is no danger Of the
supply ever exceeding the demand. The
orange is one of the healthiest of fruits.
and the more people eat them the more
they realize this fact. Eat oranges and
save doctor bills Is good motto.
SENSIBLE.
San Diego Union.l
One of the most sensible decisions ever
made by the New York courts is the re-
fusal to grant a warrant for the return of
G. Z. Huntington to California to stand
trial for violation of the interstate COM
merce Act by issuing pass over the
Southern Pacific.
A GOOD EXAMPLE.
Fresno Expositor.l
The judges of the Superior Court in
Stockton have taken decided stand IN
the matter of sending imbeciles, idiots
and harmless cranks to the States null
titudlnous but overcrowded lunatic asy
lums, which, if the example Is followed
by other courts, will in the course of
time result in a large diminution of the
number of people who are supported by
the State in those institutions.
A few days ago a decrepit old man,
paralyzed in the left arm and tongue and
of unsound mind but incapable of doing
harm to himself or others, was before
Judge Budd for examination by physi-
clans to secure commitment to the
asylum, but the commitment was with
held and the man was pronounced tit
subject for the County Hospital. to which
he was recommended to be sent.
And this appears to be strictly in con-
formity with the law provided for the
establishment and maintenance of the
States many insane asylums, but it is
law which has been very generally dis
regarded until now luuatic asylums ara
filled to overflowing faster than they can
be built.
RESPECT FOR LAW.
Los Angeles Times.l
There can be no proper respect for law
in the city of San Francisco so long as
some of it's unscrupulous prints, mis-
called newspapers, are permitted TO carl
cature, slander, and lie about the Judi
ciary. Justice must of necessity be
mere travesty in city where cases which
should be reserved for trial by the courts
are tried in the newspapers. in advance,
and whore public opinion is biased by
Justification of evidence, and where out
rageous SANDER is resorted to as matter
OF journalistic "enterprise" The San
Francisco press needs to be Lexowed.
REAL PROSPERITY.
[Red Bluff Peoples Causel
The real, permanent prosperity of the
whole State can be secured only by mu-
tual corporation and assistance The
city and country must grow together
San Francisco will have half-million
people when the condition of the country
warrants it, and not before. There is too
much city for the country business to
support, and the country business must
be Increased or 1t will be hard times in
the city. This fact seems 70 be fully
realized now by all parties, and hence the
mbined movement for progress and i'm
proyement by helping one another. The
future is full of promise, and every Cali
fornian has received fresh infusion of
courage.
DURRANT "sTUFF."
[Colusa SUM-
The San Francisco newspaper that can
print the most columns about Durrant
still claims the SCOOP" The Examiner.
brings the whole public to it's aid, and
column after column Of opinions appear
daily; but they are read. AS as study of
the channels in which human thought
may flow, the stuff is of some value. A
gentleman who had much had much ex-
perience as a Sheriff, and of course with
Juries, said If he had a case rather against
him he would not seek a jury of igno-
Iant men withla hope of hoodwinking
them, but he would take the man who
had great conceit-who thought himself
capable Of catching on to fine point
and then he would have his lawyer make
the fine points to suit. The juror would
want to be able to say, mot everyone
could see that point, but / saw it right
off," The notions on the Durrant case
fully confirms our friends ideas of a
jury.
