The franchise as originally drawn covered all the principal streets of the city and al- lowed the holders five years in which to occupy them. There is already one franchise a year old under which noth- ing has been done.

OAMINETTI AND THE UNDING
BILL.

Among the men who are to 60 to Wash
ington as representatives of the Commit
tee of Fifty to fight the funding bill, ex-
Congressman Caminetti should be in
cluded, if possible.
His experience in the last House OF
Representatives when the "a ilroad at
tempted to pass the Reilly funding bill
would be valuable in lighting the new
funding bill at this session. He was in
the fight from beginning to end, is posted
on the methods Of the opposition, has
helped to meet and overcome them, and was
prominent and energetic in the first great
fight won by the people in Congress
against railroad aggression.
He has studied the problem in all its
bearings, has an extended acquaintance in
the two houses OF Congress and in the
various departments, all of which would
be of great assistance in this emergency.
He introduced various measures bearing
on this question, and succeeded in getting
the attention of the Secretary OF the In
terror, as is shown by his annual report
recently submitted.
We do not know whether Mr.. Caminetti's
engagements would permit him to go to
Washington on so sudden a call, but the
effort to obtain his services for the State
is well worth making.

A GATHERING PALACE.

The ice carnival has opened at Truckee
with glorious weather, and as the railroad
company has made q considerable reduc-
ton in rates and offered to furnish sleep
iDg-cars for the use of excursionists while
staying at Truckee, we may soon expect
large numbers of coast residents to seek
the delights which this unique affair pre-
sents. With the most ordinary precau-
tions as TO clothing, those accustomed to
the bland climate of the coast need have
no fear on the score of the change to q
great elevation and extreme cold. The al
titude is not sufficiently great TO create the
least danger or discomfort, but is great
enough to make possible the pleasures ap-
pertaining to cold.
Although Bonner Lake has not yet frozen
over, there is plenty of time for that before
the carnival closes; and as for skating, it
can be found on the extensive ice ponds
which abound thereabout, and besides
there is large rink within the frost pal
ace, where skilled attendants will be on
hand. Sleighing and tobogganing facil-
tiles are ample.
The railroad company seems to assume
that most of the excursionists will prefer
to make the trip both ways in the night.
This is overlooking the fact that the
day trip is one OF the finest in the State.
The level plains of the Sacramento Valley
are then seen, and the tortuous winding
OF the road through the foothills and
mountains in its laborious climb to the
SUNNI 1t OF the Sierras reveals constantly
changing panorama of wonders and
beauties. In the vicinity of Gold Hill are
the great desolate fields of the old
hydraulic gold mines; Auburn appears
nestled in the upper foothills surrounded
by orange groves; from Cape Horn one
looks far down upon the shining thread
like waters OF the American River, and
then come stupendous mountains with daz-
zl1ng fields OF snow. In this short trip to
Truckee one may see the best of the natu-
raj wonders which have made this route
across the continent famous.
The people of Truckee may be depended
on for an exhibition of that hearty spirit
of hospitality which belongs peculiarly to
California. They have the strength,
rugGedness and freedom characteristic OF
their splendid environment OF mountains,
and as they are familiar with all the ways
in which wholesome sport may be ex-
tracted from cold weather their guidance
Will De as useful as it will be freely given.

into young manhood, he was employed as city
editor of the Herald
He made very lively paper OF il, and his
articles were copied far and wide. One of his
best stories was interview with John Sher-
man, While at Helena, about wild ride by
stage In Oregon. Either sherman himself, or
Walker Blaine, but probably the Mansfield
statesman himself, put such frills to it that the
story Travelled, and for months this
story bobbed up every day in some shape.
Many other stories were reproduced similarly
from the Herald.

STRANGE LOCAL CONDITIONS.

The people of Fresno County are hold
ing a splendid citrus fair, in which are dis
played oranges and lemons grown in what
is called the thermal belt of the county.
This calls to mind an extraordinary fact
which constitutes ore of the peculiarities
of California, and which has never been
investigated with scientific thoroughness
1t is the existence of thermal belts" here
and there throughout the State, in which
the Genealogical conditions are different
from those OF the surrounding region.
There is one in San Francisco. 1t
stretches through the Mission and gives
rise to a climate so radically different from
that say of the Preside Heights as to ex-
cite wonder. Again, one may often look
across the Golden Gate channel from the
heights of the City at the sunshine which
battles Sausalito while the City is wrapped
in fog. most remarkable phenomenon
exists at the lower extremity of Clear Lake.
Here is found an extensive deposit of sui
phur everything cinnabar, and the heat is
very great. A warm belt extends from
Los Gatos to Saratoga, in the western foot
hills of Santa Clara County, and there
oranges do fairly well. Numberless other
similar instances exist throughout the
State.
In some cases the cause of the phenom-
enon is clearly apparent. The northern
extremities OF Napa and Sonoma counties
and the southern end OF Lake County en-
brace region of comparatively recent vol
canic activity. In that region hot springs
and steam-spouting vents are common,
and at intervals are found issues of gas
The latter are forms of solfataras. The
high temperature of the sulphur bank OF
Lake County is explainable on this
ground. 1t is the evidence of dying vol
canic forces.
The so-called warm belts are likely
ascribable to meteorological peculiarities
The basis of them all is the constancy OF
the direction of our winds. Permanent
atmospheric drifts are thus established.
