The Liberal press naturally makes
the most Of the governments financial
difficulties, which ore attributed to the
policy of "Doles to squirearchy" and to
eXtravagances.
Emperor Williams message to Mrs
Rudyard Kipling has naturally attract
ed great attention, particularly the ref
erence TO Our common race" The
first impression here was that the en-
peror thought klplinS was an Amerl-
can, especially as the German papers
referred to the "Amer!car author Kip
ling; but this impression Is quite er-
roneous. The emperor was n reader Of
Kipling's writings long before he set
tied in America. His majesty knew
that kipling's wife was an American,
and 1t Is thought he Intended to include
America when he spoke of the COM
mon race" The Spectator" to-day
says:
1.-The emperor Is evidently willing to
substitute the Teuton for the Anglo
Saxon as the ruling race OF the future.
He did not venture to call Kiplng an
American: but being anxious that his
telegram should be taken as q compli-
ment to Americans rather than to Eng
lishnen. the German journals received
hint to describe him as an American
at least As the Germans read Kipllng
and know his pedigree as well as we
do. that Is the only explanation we can
offer for their otherwise inexplicable
unanimity In laundering"

cation OF the naval estimates completes
the various items Of national expendi-

pected the chancellor OF the exchequer,
Sir Michael aicks-Beach, Will meet by
a reimposit!on Of the former tobacco
duty nnd an increase OF the income tax
| 10 nine pence
The suggestion Is made In the press
that the deficit be met by a suspension
of q portion OF the sinking fund. The
city, however Is opposed to this as cal
culated to weaken the whole financial
position OF the country In time not
onlS of peace, but of ample revenue and
great prosperity.
a ray OF sunshine In the financial Sit
uation Is seen in the apparently BOOM
Ing state of trade, as shown by the
board OF trade returns. The Imports
since December show an increase OF
S5,500,000 as compared with 1898. indica-
ting that the purchasing power OF the
country is still growing. These satIsfac-
! tory figures help the chancellor OF the
exchequer In taking a hopeful view OF
! the revenue for the coming year: but
they viii not avert the necessity Of new
taxation.

THE AWARD INCREASED.
Judge Ellison Makes Miss Austin.
Judgment $4,000.

Judge Ellison has filed an opinion in
the County Clerks office in relation to
the Austin Wilcoxson case
In it he states that in the opinion
heretofore filed he had given it as his
judgment that if the plaintiff had been
allowed an annuity of $1,000 a year
she would be amply provided for. Hav-
ing come to this conclusion, the next
thing to do was to arrive at the pres
ent cash value of such annuity, and in
the former opinion such annuity, dis
counted at 3 per cent. a year, would
be worth $4,000 He is now satisfied
that he was in error, as Government
lends bearing a much less rate of in
terest than per cent. are selling at a
premium, and the savings banks of this
State have not for the past five years
returned to their depositors that rate
of interest.
The court is therefore satisfied that in
fixing the present cash rate of the an
nuity the plaintiff was entitled to have
it discounted at a less rate than per
cent, and has established the discount
at per cent, which, by the established
discount tables, will amount to $40, 600.
He has therefore made an order estab-
fishing the amount at $4,000 together
with PLAINTIFFS costs and disburse-
ments incurred in the action.

GLANCE AT GLENN COUNTY.
ONE OF THE MOST PROSPEROUS
SECTIONS.
How the County and Its Towns
Look to the Record
Correspondent.

WILLOWS. Dec. 15.-Glenn County
was organized in 1891, after three-ses-
sion contest in the Legislature. 1t is
the north half of old Colusa County,
long famous as being the banner wheat
producing county of California, or for
the United States. The lands on either
side of the Sacramento River in this
county are the most productive por-
ton. Then on the plains. from four to
six miles westward, is the alkah strip
called Goose Land" which is particu-
larly unfit for cultivation, SO far as
is now known 1t affords good pasture
for stock for about six months in the
year.
Westward from the alkali strip the
land is black adobe on the plains and
foothills to Stony Creek. This is the
great wheat belt, where big ranches
prevail, and where mules constitute a
large proportion of animate creation.
This land has been cropped continuous
ly of wheat and barley for nearly thirty
years, and seems to be fully as produc-
tive as at the beginning.
Along Stony Creek there are many
orchards and alfalfa fields, the fruit
being locally famous for it's superior
be found here, and thrift seems to be
the prevalent virtue. Small ranches are
in order in this section, and the people
generally own their farms on which
they live.
The west side of the county is the
Coast Range Mountains to the Summit.
This is mostly Government land, but a
few farm sections are to be found, and
some orchards of as fine apples as We're
ever grown can be found here. Such
spots are rare but there are many de-
sirable ones that could be made profit
able homes by any one satisfied to live
ten miles away from town.
The section around Orland. the second
town of this county, is fast developing
into citrus farms. Oranges, lemons and
lines are growing in profusion and to
perfection, and many acres of new trees
are being planted. The two nurseries
at Orland have already sold all their
lemon and orange trees. Natural gas is
found in the hills northwest of Orland
which will be developed in the near
future. Land can be had in small tracts
in this locality
Willows, the shire town, is about the
neatest and most enterprising in the
Sacramento valley. The streets are
lighted by electricity and the town sup
piled with pure water, pumped from
wells over three hundred feet Deep
Shade trees almost hide the many beau
tiful residences from view. Gum trees
are found 100 feet high. grown
from seed in eighteen years. showing

Nearly every yard has it's orange
trees, presenting at this season a

NOW THEY ARE HAPPY.
How the Dreamers' Club Managed
to Get Fuel.

The shotgun knights who congregate
at Charley Flohr's shop, in season and
out of season, to swap yarns, smoke his
tobacco and monopolize the easy chairs,
had an imaginary grievance early last
week, and from their ranks a commit
tee was appointed to wait on him.
They had learned from shivering ex-
perience that the advent of the cold
snap had no appreciate effect on the
size of the fire in the stove (when there
was any and investigation had shown
that the wood-pile had disappeared
many moons ago, and that the fire in
the stove was largely due to magma
ton.
The committee laid the facts before
Flohr and asked him to get wood,
threatening to swap yarns and smoke
elsewhere unless he did so. Flohr OBJ
jected-to the first part of the propo-
sition. He said he was not cold. The
committee persisted, and he finally
agreed to get cord of wood provided
the gang would saw it.
The committee reported back to the
main body and the compromise was
accepted, and permanent organiza-
ton was formed by the election of
suited in one vote for each member.
Ed Van Alstine drew the line at saw
ing wood, but to keep in good standing
he bought saw. Another member,
whose avoirdupoise would not permit Of
his doubling up, purchased a buck,
and the other members got down to
business. Rules were adopted obligat-
ing each member in his turn to saw

failure to do which meant social os-
tracism. He would be given the
CLASSY eye and would no longer be
allowed a seat at the council.
The association is said to work
smoothly, several of the members al
ready having sawed their quota, and at
present writing they have fire with
their yarns and smoke. More ducks
are killed over and over again at one
of these daily sittings than all the
hunters in the field bag in season.

Remarkable Success of q New Treatmen
for Piles.
For many years it has been supposed
that the only absolutely sure cure for
piles was by surgical operation, but the
danger. to life and the pain and ex-
pense has been so great that many
thousands suffer for years rather than
submit to this last resort, or they seek
the temporary relief in the many rem
edies claimed to relieve piles and rectal
troubles, salves, ointments and similar
simple remedies which give only slight
and very temporary relief.
A new preparation which is painless
and harmless. but which affords inn
mediate relief and in many cases
complete cure in a very short time is
sold by druggists under the name of
Pyramid Pile Cure.
1t is in suppository form used at
night and it's regular use has cured
thousands of obstinate long standing
cases, and it seems to be equally eff
fective in all the various forms Of piles.

sells to contract to a normal, healthy

A Baltimore gentleman relates his ex-
perience with the Pyramid Pile Cure in
these words:
1T affords me unusual pleasure to
add my Endorsement to those of others
relative to your really wonderful pile
remedy. I was a sufferer for years
until told by a fellow salesman of the

cured me, and cheerfully send this for

that direction. I wish you would send
me one of your little books on cause

instant relief and regular use a per-
