this pollution of the atmosphere is rep
rehensible, but it is difficult to see why
anv lady is released from the ordinary
rules of politeness on that account. so
far as is known, women have not put
on high hats to get even with whisky

protest. 1t must be judged for and by
itself alone. One evil does not justify
another. Ii is not conducive to health
and breath for a man to drink at any

between acts, smelling Of cloves beer
and Iimburger cheese. This IS rudeneSs
and bad manners. and the true gentle
man does not indulge in the practice.
His habit, therefore stands on the
same plane as the high hat-giVing

anti-social. The high nat has been

tion should reform the man who is con-

not think it necessary to pass an Act

LEPER SANITARIUM.
Chico Chronicle Record: A move
ment is on foot in San Francisco for the
establishment of national leper sani
tarium which il is hoped will meet with
success. 1t is estimated that there are
about 300 lepers in the United States,
and the cheapest and most effective
way of maintaining them and of study
ing the disease with the view of dis
covering cure is to place them all in a
single hospital, surrounded by ample
ground for their employment, the inSti-
tuition to be owned and cared for by the
Government.
DESTROYING SELF F-HELPFULNESS
Colusa Sun: The theory of this Gov
ernment is that each individual shall be
set forked end down and told to scoot;
and all that the Government owes to the
individual is protection to life, to liberty
and the pursuit of happiness. The more
responsibility thrust on the individual
the better the citizen. All acts of the
Government of paternal nature detract
from that Self-reliance so essential to
citizenship in a republic. When James
t. Stratton was United States Sur
veyor-General some twenty years ago,
he was at Colusa on a swamp land in
Vestigation, he came into the Sun Of
fice-then up stairs-and looking out at
the window he saw an Australian gum
tied to stake for support. Take that
stake away from that young tree" he
said, "and let it grow up strong" And
then he added: Nothing grows up
strong that grows up depending on
support" The stake was taken away,
the twig swayed before the winds for a
time, but grew into great tree that in
time made several cords of wood. Mr..
Stratton simply asserted a law of nature
as certain as immutable gravitation or
any other of her laws. 1t would be well
for law makers to keep this in mind for
this law applies with greater force to the
animal than to the vegetable kingdom,
and to man in a greater degree than to
any other living thing.
large number of bills relating to
labor are before the sitting Legislature,
some of them passable, and some bad.
To fix minimum wage for State en-
ployes is absurd. 1t is in the interest of
the poor workman and against the good.
The poor workman leans both on the
law and on the good workman. Laws
cannot fix prices. laws cannot fix prices
of any kind: and every law that at
tempts 1t is simply the delusive stake
by the side of the Australian gum.
GO TO THE BOTTOM.

pie desire in the Duckworth matter is

steal, and all the parties to ii should be

ELECTIONS FOR 1855

Politically, the year 1885 comes mid.
way between presidential campaigns and
is the time for the election Of the rep
resentatives to the second congress OF
the presidential term. It Is thus the
opening engagement for the battle Of
1900.
All the states viii choose representa-
tives IN congress. and about one-thlrd
Of them will choose legislatures which
will elect United States senators for the
senatorial terms beginning on March 4
1900. The following states will also elect
governors:
Alabama. Arkansas, California. colo
iado. Connecticut. Georgia. Idaho. Kan
sas. Maine, Massachusetts,, Michigan Ne
oraska' Minnesota. Nevada. New Hamp,
shire New Jersey. New York, North Da-
kota. Oregon, Pennsylvania. Rhode Isl.
and. South Carolina. South Dakota. Ten
E'sSee, Texas, Vermont. Wisconsin and
Wyoming.
Every state viii thus have an election
OF some kind on its hands, and as the
contests involve the political dominance
Of the house Of representatives for the
two closing years Of President McKln-
ley's term, they will be fought on na-
tfonal lines. and fan but little short Of a
presidential campaign in interest and i'm
portance.
