CALIFORNIA QUARANTINED.
The Secretary Of Agriculture Declares
Our Cattle Diseased.
A Consignment Of Perfectly Healthy
Animals Slaughtered by His
Orders at Omaha.

The State of California is suffering
to-day from one more of the inexcus-
able blunders that Eastern politicians
and officials SO often make through
sheer ignorance of the extent and con-
ditions Of our State, and the meager and
unreliable information on which they
act
DR.. Laine, Secretary of the State
Board of Health, is investigating the
cause of the quarantine declared by
Secretary of Agriculture Morton
against cattle from this State. and
which, unless raised, will do great dam
age to our interests.
Representative Grove L. Johnson was
asked by Governor Budd and DR..
Lame to protest to Secretary Morton
against the order issued by him, declar-
ing the whole State of California in
state of quarantine, in order to protect
other States from the shipment of cat
tie having southern or splenic fever,
under which order consignment OF
cattle shipped from Amadee, in this
State, was taken from the cars and
slaughtered, although the Chief In
spector of the Government examined
them and found them perfectly free
from the disease.
Secretary Morton, in answer to Mr..
Johnson, said that he had notified the
Governor of the quarantine declared
against the State, and that the matter
lay entirely in the Governors hands,
as he could draw a line separating the
southern part of the State, which is
affected, from the rest, relieving the
northern part from quarantine.
Governor Budd received from Secre-
tary Morton the following letter, dated
January 31st, in which he says: Il
forward you copy of the regulations
The record-union., 1896-04-01

On receipt Of this communication
Governor Budd wrote to the California
delegation In Congress, to Dr. Laine and
to Secretary Morton, and requested that
the Representatives take such action
as the occasion demanded, which Mr.
Johnson did, with the result stated.
Yesterday DR.. Lame sent the follow
| ing telegram to Secretary Morton:
Where in California does splenic
fever exist? Give authorities. with
dates Of information, so that 1t can be
found and official action taken.'
DR.. Laine says there is no record in
the State Board OF Health of informa-
ton having been furnished to it of
splenic or Southern fever existing in
the State, and therefore the board has
never quarantined against it from any
other State. Furthermore the regula-
tions in the circular sent by Secretary
Morton to the Governor concerning the
shipment of cattle are inconsistent with
the letter of Mr.. Morton to the Governor.
II the disease actually exists in the
State, the board will be very glad to as
certain the fact and also where it is, in
order that it may protect us from its
ravages.
Governor Budd said In relation to Sec
retary Morton's answer that the matter
did not rest with him, as the Board of
Eealth alone has power to declare a
quarantine. In any event, he did not
propose to cut the State In two to please
the Washington authorities. and If he
did, he would not know where to draw
the line, as he did not know what Sec
ton was affected.
There is strong probability that a
misconception is at the bottom Of the
whole trouble. Lower California Is a
peninsula, and under the control Of the
Mexican Government, not belonging to
this State at all. Very probably Gov
ernment agents have reported that cat
tie from Lower California were afflicted
with the fever. and. in ignorance of the
fact that there is a wide difference be-
tween Southern California and Lower
California, Secretary Morton has issued
the order complained of.

SPAIN AND THE UNITED STATES.

The proposal of some Of the Madrid papers, to
abrogate all treaties between Spain and the
United States. is scarcely to be taken seriously
1t Is a bit Of that rhodomontade In which Span-
iards. when unduly excited are somewhat prone
to indulge. Nothing could be more disastrous to
Spain than the execution Of such threat. AS
"The Pail Mall Gazette" observed the other day,
with more force than elegance. "a contest be-
tween light and heavy weights can have only
zone result" No serious statesman in Spain
will think for a moment Of entering upon such
a contest.
Nevertheless, the fact that such proposal has
been made however irresponsibly, serves to d.
rect attention to some strange misrepresenta-
tions which appear to prevail, not only in Spain,
but elsewhere In Europe In England France
and Germany usually intelligent journals are
talking about the interference and the arrogant
prctensIons Of the United States In Cuba, and
are suggesting that European Powers may have
to unite in resisting this country's intolcrnble

"'The Government Of the United States said
Hamilton Fish in 1869, may almost be SAID 10
"haye originated the modern doctrine or the
"ob)igat tions Of neutrals to maintain their nell-
"traity They were the first to make that IN
.tcrnatonal obligation the subject OF munlc-
'ipal law They have been loyal to that doctrine
throughout their history" That was quite
true then 1t is equally true now. 1t was sall
in respect to disturbances In the West lndl;s
islands. 1t may be repeated in respect to the
present disturbances In the chef or tnose
islands. This Government has been diligcnt ana
yigilant, day and night, In enforcing TO the
letter its neutrality laws, and If 1t has erred
at all II has done on the side of strictncss

provocation to do otherwise. and in the face or
almost unprecedentedly strong popular sentiment
In favor Of Intervention for the Cuban cause.
The Spanish Government knows this and
frankly admitted it only the other day In the
Speech from the Throne. The other European
Governments know 1t perfectly well. The over
fcrvent newspapcrwriters OF Madrid and Lon
don and Paris and Berlin. who are railing and
raging against the United States, must know
1t. unless they deliberately close their senses
against knowledge. We have no idea that their
vaporing will cause any real harm excepting
that 1t may in1ame ignorant prejudices and re-
tard the growth Of perfect amity and confidence
between all peoples. That would be a real harm.
for which the responsibility would be heavier
than any serious minded men would willingly
incur.

A BICYCLE CUTRfU.

The cycst has invaded pretty nearly every
thing, but he has not invaded the church quite
as much us some churchmen appear to desire.
Not only do the irreligious young man and
young woman go wheeling into the country for
Sunday recreation instead Of walking In the
park or taking a boat for Coney Island, but
many people who formerly found their chief
pleasure in attending on services Of prayer and
song and their chief dissipation in the tenn
pcrcd hilarity of the church social have come
to the conclusion that the bicycle offers more
diversion than did their former recreations
Some cergymen, finding 1t difficult in the old
way TO compete as purveyors of amusement
with cycle paths, have sought compromise be-
tween religion and sport in the hope that the
wheelmen would accept sermons about bicycles
with trimmings Of bicycle music and wheeling
prayers in lieu of actual indulgence in the open
air. In doing this they have enlarged upon the
hint given by the Rev. Mr. Ford. the Methodist
clergyman Of st. Louis. Mich. who interested
firemen in the Gospel by preaching to them from
q coil Of hosepipe, and converted the local bar
bers by decorating his church with razors
lather brushes and bay rum. They do not ap-
pear to have accomplished their object, however
and now new plan is proposed to give the
wheemen the benefit of the Church. and, incl
dentally, the Church the benefit OF the wheel
man.
The plan comes from Brooklyn, 1t Is the
creation Of some members Of the Church Club,
an organization of Protestant Episcopal laymen,
and it has met with such favor among these
adhelrnts of proverbially conservative denom-
ination that the president of the club has ap-
pointed committee on the subject. This com.
mittce Is considering the feasibility Of portable
church, and says: THE portable house would
certainly be great feature in any such under
"taking as this. for the true wheelman Is always
seeking new fields, and he might not like to
ride over the same road every Sunday. whether
