AZ H. Thoroughly Organized and Equipped

Several Brooklyn boys have organized
q fire department Of their own. The
ages Of the little frcTCn range from Ii
20 10 years, Ernest Grant, the foreman
and organizer of the company, being
the oldest. They have a complete patrol
outfit consisting Of two goats seven
hands high in their bare hoofs, one reg
ularly constructed patrol wagon Of
small size made TO fit the goats, one fire
extinguisher improvised from tin wa
ter cooler ahd half inch rubber tube.
one scaling ladder and all the appli-
ances found among the equipment OF a
modern patrol company's headquarters.
Tho uniforms are blue ovcralls and
blOuscS. with rubber boots, rubber
coats, fatigue caps and gaudy red fire
hats Of regulation block.
The goats names are Tom ard Bill,
and they have been trained by the boys
until there is not a horse in all the reg
ular department which responds more
faithfully and quickly 10 the clang of
the alarm gong than do Tom and Bill.
With them the boys have made a
"quick hitch" record Of ten seconds.
No such sleek goats were ever seen on
the rock ribbed hills of Shantytown
Tom is wiry haired maltese, and Bill
boasts brindled yellow complexion.
The boys live near the house Of en-
gino company No. 3j, and all summer
long each of the lads was prompt at roll
call at s o'clock every morning. Their
names were duly registered in the blot
ter, and each was given an hour off at
lunchtime. All fire alarms and the

American commerce and make Los An
geleS great seaport.
Show them that the election OF McKin-
ley means the re-establishment of an
American merchant marine. Waste no
time attacking the Administration;
nothing is to made attacking dead dog,
and Clevelandism is the deadest kind of
a canine, but fight live issues. Let the
people know McKinley's silver record:
how he voted for the Bland Allison bill,
even to passing it over Hayes veto; how
he voted for the Sherman bill and how
he has always chanlpioned the cause of
silver in Congress- Let the people know
and understand these facts and Cali
fornia will give Mckinley the majority
he deserves.
DAIRY INTERESTS.
Gilroy Advocate: Senator White and
Congressman Mcguire offended dairy
men of the coast by voting with the cot
tOn-seed members against the dairy in
terests of the country. While the filled
cheese fight was on in Congress and the
cheese fraud finally put on the revenue
list to take effect in September next,
these two members opposed the bill and
voted with the opposition. Mr. White
will find it necessary to get himself into
closer touch with the people in protect
ing American agricultural industries if
he expects support in future runs for
office.
STATE AID TO INDIGENTS.
Winters Express: The misguided per-
sons who are trying to find friends for a
movement to re-enact the law giving
tc oil To ind croy, ,tct1, Jett l,a
ploying their time with something more
profitable The investigation into the
workings of that iniquitous law made
during the last Legislature by the Com
mittee on Public Expenditures con-
@firmed what was becoming pretty gem
orally believed that a big steal was an
nually going on in the name of charity
Thousands of persons able to care for
themselves had been kept in idleness at
the States expense, and counties seemed
to have organizations expressly for the
purpose of getting money from the pub
fc treasury There may be people con-
nected with the new movement who are
honest in their undertaking, but they
can rest assured that no member of the
Legislature can be elected who will have
the hardihood to announce himself in
favor OF It.
OPEN UP THE FACTORIES.
The Mail of Woodland: After the
people stop to reflect they will make up
their minds that the most effective way
to get money in circulation is to open up
the factories and mills and give employ
ment to labor. Capitalists will natur-
ally have to assist in this good work,
therefore there is no just reason for an
tagonizing capital and labor.
Take the contemplated sugar beet fac
tory as an illustration. Is there a man
in this county who can conscientiously
say that he does not want such an insti-
tuition here simply because Claus
Spreckels, a millionaire, is a the head of
it? We would also like to ask some of
those who are denOuncing capitalists if
they can conscientiously say that they
believe such factory would not put
money in circulation and greatly stimu-

Electric Railways in Europe.

In the short space of one year the
number of electric railways in Europe
has increased from fortythree to
seventy, and the aggregate length of
the lines from 1S9 to 434 miles, says the
Electric Railway Gazette" The total
capacity of central stations has grown
in the same time from 10, $50 to $50
kilowatts, and the number of motor
cars from 53S to 1,2S6. Germany leads
the list with 227 miles of line. France
comes next with 597 miles, England
with 1875 miles, Austria Hungary with
27.S miles, Switzerland with % miles,
Belgium with 1874 miles, Italy with III
miles, Spain with 81 miles, Russia and
Servia with 62 miles each, Sweden and
Norway with miles and Roumania
with 33 miles. Germany has twenty
two separate lines in service, England
has thirteen, France eleven and Switz-
erland eight Out of seventy lines fifty
five use the trolley system of overhead
conductors.

VOICE OF THE PRESS.
EXPRESSIONS OF INTERIOR CALI
FORNIA NEWSPAPERS.
Comments Upon Things Local, Gov
ernmental, Practical, IheOret-
iCaI and Current.

Calaveras Citizen: The Democracy of
this State may well feel proud of and
encouraged with the results
attained at Chicago. The selection Of
Hon. Stephen M. White as Permanent
Chairman is a great honor to this State,
while being a most fitting mark of re-
spect to the honesty, integrity and abil-
ity Of that loyal native son.
THE SUN INQUIRIES.
Colusa sun Leading Populists de-
clare that their party cannot accept the
Democratic silver proposition. They
would rather go down to honorable de-
feat than to unite on such measure,
which they hold could not help the
country.-San Francisco Call.
When did the Populists conclude that
free silver was dishonOrable? When d1d
our most esteemed contemporary come
to that conclusion? When did either
conclude that it'could not help the coun-
try? Wonder if the Sun is going to
be the only consistent paper IN the
State? Will we, and we alone, be unable
10 prove an alibi when the Los Angeles
delegate goes on search for the fellow
who stole consistencys jewels?
THE BEST"
Middletown Independent: To listen to
the free silver advocates one would be
led to believe the Republican party is
in favor of gold dollars and nothing
else The idea is fallacious, and II our
free silver friends do not know better
they should be undeceived. The Repub-
lican party made the Sreenback dollar
good and it made the silver dollar good,
and proposes to keep them on parity
with gold In other words, our none
tary system is the best on earth and we
believe we had better let well enough
alone.
MINING POSSIBILITIES.
Calaveras Citizen: While the great
mother lode" has been usurping the al
most undivided attention of parties de-
string to invest in mining, the wealth of
our gravel mines has, to a certain ex-
tent, been lost sight Of. However, re-
newed attention is being directed to this
branch of mining, and a considerable
amount of capital is being expended in
locating the buried wealth of the ancient
rivers In this branch of the mining in
dustry Calaveras County has vast dor
mant possibilities. In the gravel belt
extending throughout the western half
of the county to the Mokelumne River
there are miles of buried channels un-
touched and unprospected. Most of
those properties have lain dormant,
owing to the lack of capital necessary
to cope with the flow Of water, which is
usually encountered in this character of
mining 1t is noticeable that this profit
able industry is claiming the attention
of capitalists, and ere long will receive
its share of the impetus gold mining is
experiencing in California.
FOREIGN BULLION.
Sisl1iyou News: One argument ad-
vanced by the money brokers of Wall
street against the free coinage of sill
yer in the United States is that "all the
silver of the world will be dumped on our
shores" This is a consummation de-

late business? This is illustrating the
question is a practical A B G manner.
Combined hayeSterS have crowded
many men out of employment, and
Woodland keenly feels the loss of the
money those men used to spend here
While the wooden mill was in operation
a large number found employment and
a change was noticed in business circles
the next day after it was burned.
M'KINLEY AND WAGE FARMERS.
The Republican platform not only in
dorses and demands protection to the
working man from the cheap produc-
tions of foreign cheap labor coming
in competition with the productions of
the we'll paid labor of this country, but
also from the competition of the impor-
tation of ignorant cheap laborers to
this country from the slums of Europe
and Asia. Wage-earners can make no
mistake in voting for Mckinley, while
they risk everything in following the
wake of the free silver, free trade party
OF parties of Decentralization, blocking
the wheels of prosperity.
OPPOSED TO FUSION IN SHASTA
Shasta Courier: II am dead opposed
to fusion or any sort Of affiliation with
the Democratic party writes an East
Side POpulist, and then remarks: The
Populists of Shasta County by organiza-
ton, union, and hard work and consid-
cradle selfsacritice, have built up a
party that at the last election gave a
majority for Webster Hor Governor and
elected a Sheriff and several other Off
GERS. Therefore / cannot see any good
policy in a fusion with an organization
that has fought US with the venom of
q rattleSnake."
STANDS IN.
Placerville Democrat: To-day the
Democrat" announces its nominees for
President and Vice President. While
individually opposed to the free coinage
of silver at twice its intrinsic value, and
fearing it's consequences, we accept the
nominees and abide by the action of our
party. While minorities are often right,
majorities must govern. That is pre-
cisely what Republicans and Populists
are kicking about
