THE RIGHT SPIRIT.

C ACRAMENTO Is to be congratulated upon
 the spirit which prevails among the members
 ot her municipal administration. As ex- pressed in the speeches made the gathering III the office of Mayor Land it evinces complete harmony of sentiment and purpose to work to- gether for the general welfare of the community
 Mr. Benty. speaking for the Trustees who will serve for the coming two years said in the course of his address to the Mayor "I desire to extend to you our assurances of confidence and desire to operate with you in harmony, good will and a com plete understanding Tn all matters affecting the pub lie good"
 He referred to the existence of rumors that the board would make exacting demands upon the Mayor and oppose his policy if the demands were not granted, and disposed of them by saying: "I desire to say my own behalf-and I believe am vocing the sentiments of my colleagues-that far as placing obstacles in your way by the present board is concerned, you will find that such rumors are false and unjustihable"
 II the Mayor and Trustees can firmly maintain this friendly and helpful attitude toward one an- other the coming two years will be memorable for municipal progress and improvement in Sacramento The people have already attested the existence of public sentiment strongly in favor of proftng by the opportunities of the This was done first by the election of Mayor Land and again by the over whelniing vote in the city for the construction of the Folsom boulevard. Popular support is there fore assured for administration of enterprise and good government.
 The new officials have only to go forward in the way they have begun to accomplish much for their city and indirectly for the State large by setting example of what can be achieved when men in authority work together instead of wrangling over division of the spells and mutually knifng one another to gratify spite and avenge petty grievances

The duty of exposing style of fake prac- ticed by the Examiner is undertaken this morning It had been supposed that this paper had reached the limit before and would be content with the spread ing of bogus news and buneombe comment. No body thought that 1t would deliberately try to fleece the public through its business office It was never accused of conscience, yet policy should have for hade But the Examiner procured lot of chromos and in its efforts to work them off on the public managed to swell its columns with an undetermined number of fraudulent advertisements. This course not only misled many who depended upon the ad- vertsements for information, but robbed the genuine advertisement of its value, thus swindng in two distinct ways. What the chromo is to art the Examiner is to journalism. But the natural bond of sympathy thus created is given an undue importance when recognition of 1t takes the form of a confidence game The advertiser and the person who scans the advertisement in good faith alike entitled to pro- tection against such methods

Eugene Fields FINN.

There ARE many good stories told
of Eugene Field by Kansas Cityans.
He was always doing odd things,
''just for fun" one might say. One
morning he went fishing from the
government pier in Chicago and
caught a string of small lake her
ring which are worth two cents a
dozen. Passing to town he located
himself on the street corner opposite
the court house at the busiest hour
OF the morning. Taking one of those
little herring in one hand he held IL
high and extolled its virtues. denom-
mating it with name a yard long.
Then he began to call fish for SALE"
relieving the monotony of the call
with a funny rigmarole. which soon
drew a crowd and impeded travel on
the street. A policeman drove him
away and in turn Field sought out
each of the four corners, calling his
fish for sale. A number of Fields
friends saw him in his new role, and
one, a railroad man well known in
Chicago. paid 81 for one of those
diminutive herring.
