GOOD ADVICE.

School Commissioner Glenn,
of Georgia, has recently been en-
gagged in making a series of adj
dresses in that State, which are
highly spoken of by the Georgia
papers. In these addresses he ad-
vises the boys and young men in
the rural districts not to join in
the rush to the cities.
The Atlanta Journal, speaking
of Mr.. Glenn's effort to induce
the boys of Georgia to remain on
the farms where they are now at
work, says:
sEThe average country youth is
afflicted with the idea that he is
losing great opportunities by re
manning on the farm, and that he
can step into easy and lucrative
employment; that he can rise to
wealth and distinction by casting
his lot in the city. This is a
grievous mistake. 1t is causing
the disappointment of hopes, the
instruction of energy and the
wreck of many lives. The young
man who goes to the city to find
employment enters upon a rocky
road. Every city in this country
now has nor men, young and
old, than can get work, and yet
the number is being increased
every day by deluded seekers for
fortune who come from the sur
rounding country or from distant
sections where they could at least
have made an honest living on
farms.
'EThere are too many people in
our cities. 1t has been said that
it would be we'll for the United
States if there was not a city of
more than half a million people
within their limits, and we be-
lieve the remark is true. The
relative increase of city popula-
ton in comparison with that in
the rural regions is one of the
dangerous tendencies of the times.
The glamor of city life is unfor-
tunately attracting thousands OF
young men who have surround
ings where they could have been
useful and lived happily, to enter
a whirl and rush in which many Of
them 60 down. 1t will be very
hard, if not impossible, to check
this foolish craving for city life,
but men who have opportunities tc
address the masses of the people,
and newspapers which enter theil
homes ought to protest against i
and to show its demoralizing in.
fuence and its increasing dang
ers."

Your Boy won't Live n Month.

So MT. Gilman Brown, of 34 Mill St. South Gardner, Mass, was told by the doctors. His son had lung trouble, following Typhoid Malaria, and he spent three hundred and seventy-fve dollars with doctors, who finally gave him up, saying: "Your boy won't live a month"; He tried Dr. Kings New Discovery and few bottles restored him to health and enabled him to go to work a perfectly well man. He says he owes his present good health to use of Dr. Kings New Discovery, and knows it to be the best in the world for lung trouble. Trial bottles free at Chenoweth & Mix's Drug Store.

At the City of Mexico General Jose Delgado, chief of the battalion of sappers and miners in the Mexican army, has been ordered court martial ed for taking construction material belonging to the government and in his charge, to construct dwelling on his own private property.
 The President Of the Republic has created the office of Inspector General of the Army, appointing Major Gen eral Sostenes Rocha, the distinguished warrior, to fill the new post. General Rocha has host of friends amongst the Americans who will be glad to learn Of the distinction which has been bestowed upon him. His duties will consist ofinspecting barracks and correcting all abuses which may come under his observation.
 An ingenious method Of defrauding the government in the sending Of merchandise through the mails, has been discovered and steps have been taken to put stop to it. It appears that merchants abroad amongst other things, would send samples of shoes, sending three or four for the right foot only, these would pass free Of duty as samples, and few days later the shoes for the left foot would be sent, also as samples. The consignee would thus get several pairs of shoes duty free Similar means have been employed with other goods.
 Jas. l, Long when first appointed United States consular agent at Parr- al was refused recognition by the Mex ican government. This action was due Co certain charges Of local oiii- cial at parral, and upon the request of some influential Mexican citizens, friends of MT. Long. the case was full ly investigated by the officials at the City of Mexico and the charges found 10 be false and unwarranted in every detail. The minister of foreign rela- tions now recognizes MT. Long, hay jng forwarded his commission and ex- equatur as United States consular agent at Parral.
 The employees of the treasury de- partment presented testimonial to Hon. Ives Limantour, secretary of the treasury, as token of esteem, in honor of his saints day, the 18th ult. Each employee contributed one cent and with the proceeds gold orna- ment was purchased and presented to the minister with bouquet of flowers. In thanking the employees for the present MT. Limantour said that he received their present with true gra- titude and it was the more valuable since 1t indicated that the time was past for public employees to deny themselves the necessaries of life in order to please their chiefs. He ac- cepted the present in the spirit of kindness in which 1t was offered.

LOYALTY TO SACRAMENTO.

The test of loyalty to ones home is
best applied in the hour when action in
Its behalf is demanded. Here we have the
question of Sacramento's vital interests
at stake in the Congressional election,
when it is wise and even necessary that
one of her citizens should represent the
district in the new Congress- and yet
there are papers of the community
which are unceasing in their boast of
loyalty to the city OF their home OPP
posing the retention of a Sacramento
Congressman for a second term.
This city is the largest community in
tne district 1t is the heaviest tax
payer in the district. It is the market
center of the district. 1t casts the
heaviest vote Of amy community IN the
district. 1t has more at stake in any
Congressional legislation than any
community group In the district. It
Is the chief transportation center of the
district. 1t is the largest employer Of
labor in the district
Yet here is our sister city Of Stock
bn, for the third or fourth time pre-
senhng a Congressional candidate, a
city that has three times had one of
Its citizens in the House Of Representa-
tveS, while Sacramento In her modeSty
has presented but one in all her his
tory, and now asks in common Justice
that he be retained for a second term
to continue the work he has so we'll
begun in the interests of the district,
the State and this city, and we find
Sacramento newspapers opposing that
honorable and commendable request,
and advising the election Of the op-
position candidate.
What do the people of this city think
of loyalty boaSted and constantly pro-
Jected, and iterated in and out of sea-
sen, that fails the community in it's
greatest hour of need?
Every one comedies that the election
of the Sacramento candidate would be
a good thing for this city, as we'll as
for the whole district. Every one con-
cedes that IL there is such a thing as
loyalty to home interests, now is the
proper time and this the field for it's
truths we have journalistic intelligences
living upon the patronage of the peo-
pie of the city doing their utmost to de-
feat the Sacramento candidate, the
first one, as we have said, the city
In all its history has sent to the House
Of Representatives What is to be said
OF a loyalty TO home interests that is
manifest only on convenient occasions.
and Is abandoned when the hour of
greatest need demands its vigorous ex-
ercise?
Yet Sacramento in promoting the can
didacy of her citizen is doing the very
best thing for every community In the
district, since that candidate is not a
new and untried man; not a tyro in
legislation; not fledgling and an ex-
Derimenter. He Is a trained legislator
OF broad experience, has served one
term with distinction, and has accom-
plished for the whole district and the
State more than was looked for. by
far, since first termer is always hand
icapped. He has taken a foremost po-
sition in the House, and brought the
district and its needs into prominence
In Congress that it has not heretofore
had. To repeat, Sacramento advanc-
ing her candidate is promoting the best
interests OF all the district

A favortte argument Of the Populists,
now taken up by the Democrats Is, that
if We take our exports for 1895 at the
prices Of 1873, we will have as a result
100000, 900 more than we received for
our goods. Absurd. The idea intended

IN NEVADA CITY.
Reception to Congressman Johnson Satur-
day Night.
The 0randest Demonstration Made
There During the Present
Campaign.
(From the Nevada City Herald.)

(From the Nevada City Herald.)
The Republican meeting last Satur-
day night was the grandest demonstra-
ton that has been seen In this city
during the entire campaign. There
were more people, more enthusiasm,
more genuine interest taken than in
any previous meeting.
Congressman Johnson and ex-
Governor Markham arrived on the
evening train and were met at the
depot by committee with carriages
and driven to the Union Hotel.
By z o'clock the streets were filled
with people, and tar barrels were
blazing on the street corners, while a
salute was fired with giant powder.
Both bands of music had been en-
gagged, and one played on Broad street
while the other played on Main.
A special train arrived at 1880,
bringing about $50 people from Grass
Valley, while scores came in from the
ridge towns in their vehicles. It was
grand outpouring of people, and as
the crowds marched to the theater,
headed by the bands. with bells ring
ing, powder firing, bonfires blazing
and the streets lurid with "red light,
it looked like old times, and people
were alive to the fact that this is a
Presidential campaign.
The theater was quickly filled.
Every seat and every inch Of standing
room was taken, and still there were
hundreds Of people outside Captain
Nihell threw the Armory open, seats
were brought, and soon there was an
Overflow meeting Of three or four
hundred people In the Armory. There
would have been more had the mana
gers been able to procure more seats
on such short notice.
The meeting was called to order by
F. E. Wadsworth, who introduced
Hon. E. M. Preston as Chairman.
Several well-known Republicans were
invited to take seats on the stage, and
after an overture by the Independent
Band Chairman Preston made brief
address. and ended by introducing Mr..
Markham, who had kindly consented to
leave the theater and address the peo-
pie in the Armory
The Ex-Governor Of California was
greeted with three hearty cheers when
he took the stage, and and being thus
encouraged, he made a splendid speech
in favor Of the Republican ticket and
the principles we are conteSting for in
this campaign.
At the theater the meeting was
called to order by Hon. ]. M. Walling,
who introduced Hon. Josiah Sims as
President of the evening, with the fol-
lowing Vice Presidents:

A WARNING.

All that malignity and malice can de-
wise is likely to be put out just before
election day to fnjure Hon Grove L.
Johnson and withdraw support from
him. The opposition is so afraid of this
mans ability in Congress, of his vigor,
courage and aggressiveness In behalf
Of his constituents. that they will not
stop at anything to cripple his canvass.

The four young men nominated for

publican party ought to be elected.
They are competent, able and repre-
sentative. Three of them are native to
the county. Two come from agricul-
trral sections. Two are professional
men, two are business men. They have
youth, energy, steadfastness, ambition
on their side. They are for Repubh-
can United States Senator, and are op-
tor, the political renegade. One of
these young men is a skilled legislator
and has twice served the county with
distinction in the Assembly. Electors
Will do themselves credit and the coun-
ty service by voting for J. G. Brusie,

means a vote for faithfulness, vote
for capacity, vote against book rings,
a vote against narrow prejudice, a vote
against intolerance and incompetency.
It means a vote for good road legisla-
ton, for progress, for protection, for
strengthening the hands Of President
McKinley-who is going to be elected.
It means all that the Republican party
stands for-breadth, iberality, conser-
vatsn, progress and protection OF
American industries, since State leg
islation exercises influence In all these
directions.

One Of the great and most important
industries Of the country is all but dead
the American merchant marine. Once
it carried 90 per cent. Of all our for
eign commerce.; to-day 1t floats but
per cent. The Republican party pro-
pose to return to the system Of the
fathers, that made a discriminating
duty favorable to the imports carried
upon American bottoms. The Demo-
cratic Populist party refuses to con-
cur In this patriotic effort to rehabili-
tate the merchant marine. Which is
most deserving Of commentator? II

DEMOCRATIC PROMISES.
Are the Voters to be Again De-
ceived2
Fron the Stockton Recordl

From the Stockton Record.)
The election occurs one week from
to-day, and within that time every
voter must finally determine whether
or not he is willing to trust the Dem
ocratic party in making an expert
nlent in Government after its signal
failure of the last three and one-half
years. The Democratic promises Of
four years ago were just as positive
and confident Of the beneficial results
to be secured as they are to-day. The
cries were just as loud against monop-
oily, corporations and plutocrats as they
are to-day. Are the voters to be again
deceived?
The country cannot easily recover
from a repetition Of the experience 1t
has undergone during the past few
years. It will require all It's energies
and resources to overcome the single
experiment; 1t cannot we'll stand an
other 1t is now quite clear that a
majority Of the voters in q majority
of the States have made up their
minds to elect Mckinley President
But it Is essential to have q Congress
that Is in accord with him and his
party. California has great interests

Canal and other waterway improve
ments, but wants protection ex-
tended to it's fruit and wool and lum-
ber and manufactures. And when
protection Is extended to the indus
tries Of the country this State wants
Representatives in Congress who will
see that California interests are not
slighted.
The Second Congressional District
has an interest in national legisla-
ton. 1t has waterways to improve.
1t can get appropriations for i'm
provement of waterways only
through Republican control. It can
not get them diverted to this district
only by the intervention Of a mem
Der Of the majority party who repre-
sents this district. To repudiate our
present capable and experienced Con-
gresham for an untried youth, is to
say distinctly to Congress: 1--WE do
not indorse the claims made in our
behalf by Johnson" That Is the logt-
cal effect Of his defeat If Stockton
gives an adverse vote to his election 1t
means that Stockton does not want
his services toward securing an appro-
priation for a public building and for
river Improvement.
But most of all will the loss fall on
the State at large If Johnson should
be defeated. His ability has given
him an influential position in one short
term He stands better to-day with
the Representatives Of the East than
any man ever sent from California.
He has the knowledge, the energy, the
courage and the 1enacIty to accomplish
something.
