foreign capital with no local people
in the deal, and that all the materials
and supplies would come direct from
the Coast, without benefit to any local
importer.

NOW AND EORENER

Hawaii means to be annexed to
some other nation, says the New York
Tribune. 1t offers itself first to this
one. If this one does not take it, and
take it now, it will offer itself to an
other, which will take it, and will
thus gain an advantage over us in the
commerce of the Pacific, which we
can never hope to overcome. The
choice is now before the Washington
government. 1t must be made at
once and forever.

Gold in Southern California.

California is to have golden jubilee
in San Francisco, on the Gath OF next
month, in commemoration of the f1f-
tieth anniversary of the discovery OF
gold within the boundaries or the
State. Los Angeles and Southern Cal
ifornia will doubtless be f1ttingly rep
resented at this commemoratiOn, but In
order to be historically correct the
jubilee should have been held In Los
Angeles about five years ago, for it
was within the limits of this county
that the first noteworthy discovery OF
gold was made. five years in advance
of the celebrated find made by Mar
shall at Coloma, which set the world
on fire, and led to rush of gold seek
ers from the utmost ends of the earth,
in comparison with which the present
exodus to the Klondike is but a Sun
day-school picnic.
It was, however, in 1841 or 1872
concerning the exact date historians
differ-when the first discovery of gold
in the State was made by white man.
The discoverer was Francisco Lopez, a
native of California, who, while rest
ing at a place called San Francisquito,
between thirty and forty miles north
west of Los Angeles, during a search
for stray horses, dug up with his
sheath knife wild onions, and in the
dust discovered piece of gold, after
ward finding more. A number of cit
liens went to the place and COM
menced prospecting, they also finding
gold. The news of the discovery soon
spread all the way from Santa Bar
bara to Los Angeles, and In a few
weeks hundreds of people were engaged
in washing and winnowing the sands
and earth of the gold fields. From
these mines was obtained the first
shipment of California gold dust re-
ceived at the United States Mint In
Philadelphia, which was sent by a
citizen named Alfred Robinson in a
merchant sailing ship around Cape
Horn. The shipment was "a ounces
in weight, and assayed $40 to the
ounce, superior quality of gold.
San Francisquito, where the discov-
cry was made, is in g canon about
eight miles northwest of Newhall l..

English law provides for the punish
ment Of any person who publishes "any
proposal or scheme for the sale of any
ticket or tickets, chance or chances,
In lottery" Under this law, the print
er of London newspaper was recently
prosecuted and fined, as being "a
rogue and a vagabond," because he
published the advertisement of medi-
cine in such a form as to make 1t a
missing word contest. The prize offer
ed for supplying two omitted words
needed to perfect the sense was divid-
ed among six persons guessing the
missing part Of the advertisement. OF
course the trial of the offender adver-
tised the medicine, but 1t served the
purpose Of showing that the law
against lotteries was to be construed
SO as to shut out schemes wearing an
Innocent look but really involving an
illegal principle.

Congress desired the experiment of
rural free-mail delivery to be thor
oughly tested and to that end author
lied the postoffice department to make
trials in different parts of the country.
First Assistant Postmaster General
Heath, in his report recently made pub
lie, gives the results Of these expert
ments. He says trials have been made
in all sorts and conditions Of rural life.
The experiments have covered twenty
nine States and forty-four different
routes. They have not been confined
to communities where conditions IA
vored the success Of the plan to the
utmost, but mail has been carried over
the mountains of Arkansas, through
the heavy roads of Central Illinois,
along the rough banks Of the Missouri
river in Kansas, through the unsurvey-
ed and roadless farming districts of
Southwest Kentucky, over the hills and
through the snow-flled crossroads Of
Michigan and among the scattered col
ored settlements of Virginia. Com
menting on these experiments, the
First Assistant Postmaster General
says: According to the varying con-
ditions of the country traversed, the
rural carriers perform their services on
horseback or riding in buckboards, bug
giles, two wheeled carts, or on bicycles.
In some States they have to cross farms
and pull down bars and ride over fields
to deliver and collect their mails. In
no instance has any serious complaint
been made of this invasion Of private
rights. On the contrary, the co-opera-
ton Of the communities served has in
every instance been cheerfully and ef-
fectively given. The farmers, at their
own cost, have put up boxes at the
crossroads and at all other convenient
places for the reception Of the mails.
The general results obtained have been
SO satisfactory as to suggest the feast
bility of making rural delivery per-
manent feature Of postal administra-
ton in the United States, not immedi-
ately or in all districts at once, but in
some gradual and graduated form"
After the successful experiments in this
line Congress should not delay longer
the establishment Of rural free delivery
in the communities best suited for the
immediate introduction Of this system.

The Art of Complimentary.

Compliments are the poetical touches
which redeem the monetony Of prosaic
existence. In the intercourse of SYM
pathetic people they have a natural
place, and it Is as pleasant to recog-
rize by word or look the charms of our
friends as 1t is to profit by them. Profit
we do, undoubtedly, as all that makes
life fairer makes it better, and whole
some discernment Of good traits must
add to our faith in human nature and
it's capabilities. Rigid moralists de-
clare that compliments are so akin to
fiattery that it Is wrong to use praise
in any way. This is ''most intolerable,
and not to be endured" for all need
both to give and receive encourage
ment in this practical and hurrying
world. And, reprehensible as hard ma
lures find it, there is charm In open
ing our eyes to the attractions of others
and a warm, healthy glow accom-
panies the utterance Of words which
attest our admiration.

One of the minor features of the Eng
lish legislative system might with pro-
priety and profit be reproduced in the
State and national legislatures Of
America. Every measure, before 1t Is
brought before the House Of Com
mons, is submitted to the examination
of the official drafter of bills. This Of
fetal Is q man well versed in the his
tory of law and law-making, consti-
tutional lawyer Of high rank. He exam
ines the bill, points out anything In 1t
that Is in conflict with the Constitu-
ton, elucidates obscurities and 1ndi-
Gates omissions and redundancies.
More than that, he will, on request,
draft any measure which a member
may desire to bring before the House.
The result of this Is wonderful econ
omy Of the time of the Parliament and
Of the courts. Unconstitutional bills
are often killed by the hand of the bill
drafter, and all measures submitted to
the legislative body are clear in import
and full, yet concise, in form. We
need something of this kind here. Ex-
cellent measures are not seldom the
offspring Of the brains of men who are
not trained constitutional lawyers,
and they fail of enactment, OF of en-
forcement, if enacted, on account of
technical blemishes which might cas-
lily be removed. The records Of our
legislatures and courts are full Of the
obituaries of such laws. The appoint
ment of capable drafter Of bills to aid
legislators in the preparation of pros
pective laws would enable each meas
ure to stand or fall squarely on it's mer
it's, irrespective of considerations mere
ly technical.
