GEN. PORTER FOR CABINET.
If Mckinley Is Elected He Will Get a
 Place .4Tis Said

NEW YORK, Sept. 25.-It is reported on good authoritysthat General Horace Porter. a stalwart of the stalwarts, is slated for position in the cabinet in case of Mckinley $ election.
 General Porter is prominent mem Der of the Union League club, and 6 friend of the Vanderbilts, J. Pierpont Morgan, Geo. M. Pullman. and a host of Wall street men,
 General Porter is one of the most eff. fective public speakers in the Republi can ranks. It is known that General Porter has long been personal friend and admirer of Major Mckinley, which of course adds to the probability of the report that slates him for cabinet po- sition. |.
 He has been vice-president of MT. Pullman's Palace Car company for near ly twenty five years, a position which he just resigned to accept the chairman ship of the board of directors Of the St. Louis & San Francisco Railroad com pany.4

AN IMPORTANT, CASE.
It Is of Interest to Growers and Ship
 pers of Fruit.

SACRAMENTO, Cal. Sept. 25-An importanr decision was rendered by Judge Johnson today which is of great Tn crest to both growers and shippers of fruit. The decision virtually means that shipper cannot refuse to receive fruit on a contract simply because he could not ship it. ..,.s }.
 The case was that of H. A. Root vs. The National Fruit Association.

The pace at which we live, the rush and hurry of each day, are answerable in measure for this change in our style of correspondence; but, above all, is it not the result of the flood of jour nahsm which sweeps all before it? The letter writers of the past wrote for pos terity, it is true. but also to keep their friends in touch with the topics of the day, political and social, says London Queen. Our newspapers do this for us to the fullest extent, and only the most private matters remain for the letter writer to record, matters of SO private a nature that were such letters
