CALIFORNIA IN 1880.
New York Evening Post.


The first account in ENGLAND of
California was written hy Alexander
James Forbes, an Englishman, who
later became British vice-consul in
san Francisco. and was published in
London in 1889. 1t is an interesting
and rare work. for It exhibited to Eu-
ropean and American readers the
great natural resources of California,
treated with some thoroughness the
religious and political institutions of
this portion of the Mexican republic,
and even spoke of the possibility of an
lsthmian canal AS its full title. Cal
ifornia A History of Upper and Lower
California From Their First Discov-
cry shows, it dealt with portion of
the Pacific coast below the Colorado
river as we'll as with what we now
call California.
Forbes thought that the missions
were not performing useful work in
converting and educating the Indians.
He contrasted the life of the converted
savages, tied to small plots of land,
living in squalid. filthy cabins, given
to vice. dying of tuberculosis, their
religion another name for debasing
superstitution, with that of their I'M
converted brethren, finding. health,
happiness, and some very substantial
virtues in their free, rugged existence.
He had no praise for the Spanish
system of government. which IN 800
years had done almost nothing TO de-
velop the agriculture and commerce
OF one Of the richest regions on the

CAN'T HOLD BIG ESTATES


The aristocracy of England cannot
afford to hold it's big estates. The
great landlords owning thousands OF
acres, are finding that taxes are so
heavy upon them they cannot pay
and are being compelled to parcel out
their holdings in order to get money
enough to live upon. Recently Lord
Aberdeen had to dispose of $4,000
acres, and Lord Ebury has announced
his intention of breaking up the es-
tate of Moor Park in Hertfordshire
Other domains are facing a similar
fate.
But here is the point-a landless
aristocracy is no aristocracy at all
1t is fiction, and soon becomes only
a matter of Righteousness. With the
passing of the big estates of England
or any other country, there will be a
passing of the so-called aristocracy,
People have tried from time to time
to make it appear that there can be
no other aristocracies than the land
but it doesn't go. An aristocracy OF
brains is we'll enough to talk about
an aristocracy of merchants or OF
bankers may sound fine. But the fact
is, aristocracy-real aristocracy-was
the land and nothing else.

WILD DUCKS AND GEESE STAY
Fargo Forum

: Domesticated wild geese and mall
lard ducks have been raised for sew
eral years on the Fritz Gruhl farm in
Cromwell township. Mr.. Gruhl. who
was in Moorhead on Tuesday, said he
raised 20 mallards last year and win
tered two pairs. One pair has disap-
peared since the ice has melted from
the lakes and ponds, and he thinks
they will come home. although that
may not be until the new brood is
able to fly, The other pair of ducks
appears to prefer civilization and the
companionship of the domestic fowls
and the "honkers"
I'VE have to watch the wild geese
during the spring and shut them UP
at night until two or three eggs are
laid in q nest in the poultry house.
Then they stay at home and raise the
goslings with their tame cousins
said Mr. Gruhl. "If we give them the
chance they will go to some slough Or
pond and nest in the PUSHES" Wild
geese have been raised on the Gruhl
farm for over 25 years. and they be-
come as tame as puppies. They are
very fond Of wheat bread and last

THE RAID ON FINNEY AVENUE
st. Louis PoSt-Dispatch.


The walking delegate of st. Louis
unioni2ed burglars who stands for the
higher professional standards and
politely brings about the return of
family heirlooms for cash, under a
strictly kept gentlemens agreement,
should appreciate that such work as
that done at Finney avenue store
shows q shocking lack OF skilled
technique and hurts business.
The account of the visitation reads
like descriptions of n descent by Villa
bandits on some unfortunate Mexican
center of population. The sentries
who paced their beats outside. I'M
mindful of the increasing peril, gave
an impression of trained military COM
potency. But the deafeninG pounding
on the steel safe with a sledge for a
quarter of an hour, the stunning eX-
plosion of nitroglycerine heard for
blocks, the succession of countless
shots exchanged with the police. the
yells to aroused neighbors to pull
their heads in from surrounding Win
dows, and the strident command to
passerbys to vamoose created a scene
of uproar and disorder most painful
to all. including even burglars, who
really have the credit of the city at
heart.
Such daring, and especially such
mistaken contempt for publicity, make
it increasingly difficult to pull off bet
ter managed, quiet jobs. Honest citi-
zens who have borne their own theft
losses with resignation will cease to
rely on police protection and take
their own measures for cooperative
reprisals against the thieves in spirit
of commonly betterment.

Sir Thomas j. Upton, the famous
merchant and sportsman who has
been in America to discuss prelimi-
naries for an international yachting
contest, enters upon his 10th year to-
day. The man whose two chief de-
sires have been to feed the world and
to lift the American cup, began life
as an errand boy in a store in Glas-
gov, the city of his birth. The life
did not salt him, so he ran away
from home and came to America as
a stowaway, First he went to South
Carolina and worked on a plantation.
Then he located IN New York. He
could find little to do in the metropo-
lis, so he went home, travelling again
as a stowaway. His father had saved
a little money and with it the boy
was enabled TO set un little grocery
business. 1t prospered, for while in
America Upton had studied the Amer
lean way of displaying and selling
goods, and he used his knowledge to
such advantage that he was soon able
to open other stores until he had a
line of them all over the United
Kingdom, and had built up the great
est system of food supply in the

He was a well known novelist, and
had the misfortune to be buttonhOled
by two charming but over gushing
ladies as he was getting into train.
As the train started on its way they
opened fire at him in a manner which
he much resented.
Presently the train entered q tun-
mel. The novelist raised his hand il
the darkness and administered to it a
resounding kiss.
When the light returned he bent
over to the two ladies', who were Jelly
regarding each other, and said with
suavity:
Dear ladies, the great regret of my
life will be that l shall never find out
which of Won two has kissed me-"
After that silence reigned.
