The article relative to Dr. Biber published in Wednesday’s issue of the TRANSCRIPT was received with greater interest fnan anything. that has ap’ peared in any other. Nevada county paper for many years. Nearly everybody in the mining portion of this county is more or less acquainted with the object of the sketch, and quite a number of prominent citizens seem to have paid dearly in dollars and cents for the honor and pleasure of having him for a friend. Old-timers say he first worked his little games here in the sixties, and that gpotwithstanding the fact that he has been publicly denounced time and again by those who claimed they had been victimized by him, he never lacked for friends here. Whatever niay be said against the’ Doctor’s methods of financiering, he has some good traits. He is symputhetic, always willing to divide with a friend anything good that he inay get from another friend, and isa firm believer in, the richness and permanency of the mines in this part of the State. A Suit For Damages. : The case.of Sherwood vs. the Miltor Mining and Water Company will be tried at Downieville beginning October lst. Judge Bridgford of Colusa will preside, Judge Soward being disqualified. Sherwood lives on the Middle Yuba river above Moore’s Flat. He claims that when the Milton Company’s English dam on the headwaters of the river was destroyed.in 1883 the released waters in rushing down the canyon swept away some of his effects and that he lost $2,200 in gold specimens which he had buried under his A Question of Jurisdiction. In the land case of M. D. Calkins against Thomas Peard and others, now before Judge Sawyer of the United States Circuit Court (and which came up Monday when plaintiff by his attorney filed an amended complaint) defendants have been given five days to file a brief in support of a plea of abatement. Defendants admit that the complaint is good, but deny the jurisdiction of the Cirenit Court, alleging the value of the land in contest is less than $2,000. Supreme Court Decisions. The Supreme Court has given decisions in the following Nevada county cases : Morgan et al. (respondents) vs. Lones. Judgment of Superior Court affirmed. McShane (respondent) vs. Carter et al.

SOREED. Eptrork Transérwt—The marriage question discussed by yoor ‘‘bachelor’’ correspondent in Saturday’s TransCRIPT is among the burning -issues of the hour which saturate our literature aud threaten to produce a social revolution. The sacerdotalists in all cases (except where they are personally interested) rail loudly against our divorce laws, forgetting that statistics show that where there are no divorce laws, all forms of social immorality prevail most. For if a man desires a divorce he is going to have it, if not legally at least practically, and will in addition form such new ties (like George Elliott) as legally divorced persons make. To me the views of your correspondent are decidedly impracticable, although a writer so fascinating in style and so hold in his deductions must secure consideration from every .person who delights in originality as distinguished from the common-place inanity. There is a good deal of truth, any how, in the idea that marriage means, to most women, death to all social freedom, and for this, blind conventionalism and not reason, is responsible. Our daughters have been long since emancipated from the Oriental idéas of the dark ages, but the wives remain nearly as much enslaved as ever. In olden times woman was regarded as physically and morally weak, and asa result was isolated and mistrusted ; and so far as most married woman are concerned the barbarous notion remains to t .is day. Why a girl the day before her marriage should be permitted perfect liberty of movemient, and the day after her marriage be subjected to so much ridiculous restraint,is a mystery, unless it be on the theory that in the meantime association with her husband has contaminated her morals and made her a second edition of himself! What other reason can be given? It will not do to say that the increase of liberty will tend to vice. In not one of the elopements that figure in newspapers is ‘the woman in the case’’ one that has associated in mixed society. On the contrary all such are very particular about appearances and shy in their movements, The co-education of the sexes in some of our colleges hag proven the good result as to the bend of mixed society, and had for a long time most as much opposition as the views I advocate. Some husbands require the most slavish attention from their wives; others ‘‘tag’”? on to them as though they were babies, and others again are of such a. selfish disposition that they cannot bear to have their wives enjoy themselves in mixed society, even in the most innocent pleasures. This cannot be love, because love delights to see its object enjoy herself— as an infallible test of its genuineness. Of course there are a few husbands who are neither jealous nor suspicious and are reully as glad to have their wives socially enjoy themselves, without any morbid discrimination on the ground of sex, as to know that their daughtera are having a good tiie. The drawback here is that-if a married woman shows the slightest dispesition to be generally sociable like her unmarried sister, she is liable to be misunderstood because of the vicious hoodlum notion of the stern sex that construe the commonest civility from her as meaning sentiment. ‘This can he avoided by due prevaution in the selection of her associates. In Paris @ few years since an American girl that walked out without an escort was likewise liable to be ‘‘misunderstood,”’ but she has lived it all down long ago. human nature that can appreciate the differences bet ween thé sexes, hoth'as to principles and nature, in these aspects. In one respect they are both alike, however: they are both social beings and have social instincts and capacity for social enjoyment. Fhe antidote for just rebellion ia a greater liberty. The remedy for the coming social revolution is greater freedom for the wife. Your correspondent and I differ greatly as to the remedy. His plan is for greater independence by meuns of the isolation of the wife from the husbanil, my plan is greater independence by means of her greater liberty. I plead only that the same social freedom that the American girl shows herself so worthy of be extended to the American wife. This is all—no more and no less. When this is conceded less marriages will prove failures. The trials incident to domestic life will be more cheerfully borne because domestic life will be less exclusive. There will be less divorces because the wife will be less dependent on her. husband’s society. The home itself will be less like a convent, and womanhood—married womaphood—will step forth proudly into the world’s arena, free because she. is noble, and noble because she is free!

What Politicians at the National Capital Talk About. Wasuinaron, D. C., August 28. Epttror Transcrrpr — PostmasterGeneral Wanamaker returned to Washington today. He is at present the only cubinet officer in the city and it is not likely that any of his colleagues will be here befure next week. There is likely to be some delay in the building of the five war vessels provided for by the last Congress owing to the fact that the bids received were largely in excess of the amount appropriated to pay for them. The Navy Department has issued néw proposals jn which some modfications are ma whic it is hoped wilt enable thdship builders to get inside of the appropriations with their bids. Bat naval officers say that the appropriations are tuo small to obtain vessels of the class wanted. Similarity of names brings about some queer things. For instance, a short time ago Andrew J. Whitaker, of Illinois, who was formerly a clerk in the Fourth Auditor’s Office, was appointed-deputy Fourth Auditor. Saturday the Fourth Auditor received a letter from Andrew J. Whitaker, of Carpentersville, Illinois, stating that he had’ seen-a notice in a Chicago paper of his appointment as Deputy Fourth Auditor, and that he accepted the appointment. As possession is nine points of the law the first named gentleman wil! probably retain the office while his Illinois namesake will be allowed to keep the disappointment. » Civil Service Commissioner Lyman. now says the members of the Commission have never mentioned to the President anything about the proposed extension of the Civil Service ruleg to the Chiefs of divisions in the departments, but that the commission is unanimously in favor of it. Nobody doubts that at all. The Commission isin favor of anything that will-increase its power, but a great many other people think it should be curtailed instead of increased. Washington is not worrying much about the efforts now being made by several cities to secure the great International Exposition which is to be held in 1892 to celebrate the four hundredth anniversary of the discovery of America. Unless the Exposition is held under the authority of the United States it will not be a success. That makes it certain thatit will be held’in this city, the only place proper for it: To-hold it anywhere else would make’ it simply 4 local affair. Me _ Acting Secretary of State Wharton says the Behring Sea seizures are matters concerning only the Treasury department, the seizures being made by vessels of the revenue marine service. The State department will fiave nothing todo with it unless the British should send it some communication on thé subject, which it has not yet done. ‘ ' Acting Commissioner of the Land Office Stone is now investigating the alleged payment by the last administration of $48,000 on fraudulent surveyors’ vouchers. The matter will be laid before Secretary Noble as soon as he returns to Washington. The nomination of General Mahone bythe Virginia Republicans has created much interest here. ‘ It ensures Virginia a red hot aggressive campaign and it is generally believed by Republicans that the brainy little man will win, and the most sanguine Democrats admit that the result is doubtful. When the fact is remembered that these same Democrats are in a habit of claiming everything this admission is not without meaning. The administration is determined that the foreign delegates to the Three America’s Congress which meets here on the 2ud of October, next, shall see what a country the United States is. An excursion has been: arranged for the delegates, which will leave here on October 8, and return November 14. Amongthe places to be visited are, all the commercial and manufacturing cities of New England and Northern New York;.’ West Point ; Niagara Falls; HarvardUniversity ; Yale College; Michigan University ; Chicago ; Buffalo; Detroit ; Minneapolis; St. Paul; Sioux City; Omaha; Fort Leavenworth ; St. Louis; Kansas City; Mammoth Cave; the Natural Gas region; Pittsburgh; Altoona; Philadelphia ; Wilmington; the Ship yards at Chester, Pa., and Edison’s laboratory at Menlo Park. This trip will certainly make a great impression on our visitors. Forty-Niner. The Grand Prerequisite of Vigor. — The dual operation of digestion and assimilation is the grand prerequisite of vigor. To insure the gonversion of food into rich, nutritious blood, it is only necessary to use with persistence and systematically Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters. The fountain head of supply in the animal economy is the stomach. To regulate, to invigorate that organ, and thus facilitate its digestive and assimilative processes, should be the chief aim of thove troubled with a deficit of stamina. Nervousness, insomnia, feeble appetite —there are usually traceable to impaired digestion. Overcome this and wou of necessity dismiss its multifarious, perpelxing and harassing: symptoms. The emaciated can never hope to gain flesh so long as assimilation is imperfect. The Bitters surmounts the orfly obstacle to an increase not-only of vigor, but bodily substance. Conquer also with the Bitters malaria, becageed and liver complaint, constipation an rheumatic trouble. Thoroughness characterises its effects. ee Pears’ is the purest and best Soar ever made.

Lobner’s olive trees, planted two years ago at Colfax on land higher than Chicago Park, are thriving. James Healy has olive trees that he planted two years ago doing well. He is located at the highest point in the Park. : Steve Lissenden spent Sunday and Monday of last week atthe Park. As soon as he can sell or renthis ranch at Newcastle he will come here to stay. With the acreage being set out at Chicago Park there isno reason why the growers here should not have a canning and drying establishment of their own on the co-operative plan, thereby. giving to each the moet for his fruit. Chicago Park took the lead in the county last winter in setting out new orchards. Let her keep it up and send out fine ‘fruit under its own brand, thereby earning a reputation that willsell its fruit for the highest prices. There is no placein California that can offer more inducements to the public than the upper foothills of Nevada county. To the health-seeker we offer a climate unexcelled, which quickly and permanently benefits persons with lung or throat troubles. There is something in the balmy air and atmosphere of the pine, spruce and tarweed that seems to invigorate one at every breath. To the fruit grower we offer the best soil -for the growing of fruits in the State—the famous red soil, whose productions bring the largest return to the producer. Hereall kinds of fruits and nuts thrive, except the tender citrus fruits.’ It is claimed that even the hardiest of oranges (the Japan) will grow here. But the cost of laying out an orange grove being so much greater than laying out an orchard of deciduous fruits, and deciduous fruits paying fully as well, and much sooner than the citrus, the wise orchardist will see the advantage. There are growing at Chicago Park different varieties of apples , peaches, pears, plums, prunes, grapes, olives, figs, nectarines, apricots, almonds, chestnuts and walnuts, some of the trees having been planted only two years bearing fruit this year. We have established close at hand a winery which manufactures wine from grapes raised at an altitude of not less than 2,000 feet above the sea, the monntain grapes, like the mountain Bartlett Pears being syperior and bringing better prices than valley fruit. This is one of the few localities in the State where the white wine grape can be raised to perfection. J There is a project on foot to build a cannery near by inside of ‘a year. Lands here are sold cheap and on easy terms to actual settlers or parties improving, and on long time at low rates of interest. Parties settling here can make no mistake. There is no “boom” in this county, but it is growing steadily with a good class of people. : A Dry Season. There are only about five thousand inches of water running in the South Yuba river at Edwards’ bridge, which is as low as that stream has been . for anumber of years.

Nearly everybody in the mining portion of this county is more or less acquainted with the object of the sketch, and quite a number of prominent citizens seem to have paid dearly in dollars and cents for the honor and pleasure of having him for a friend. Old-timers say he first worked his little games here in the sixties, and that gpotwithstanding the fact that he has been publicly denounced time and again by those who claimed they had been victimized by him, he never lacked for friends here. Whatever niay be said against the’ Doctor’s methods of financiering, he has some good traits. He is symputhetic, always willing to divide with a friend anything good that he inay get from another friend, and isa firm believer in, the richness and permanency of the mines in this part of the State. A Suit For Damages. : The case.of Sherwood vs. the Miltor Mining and Water Company will be tried at Downieville beginning October lst. Judge Bridgford of Colusa will preside, Judge Soward being disqualified. Sherwood lives on the Middle Yuba river above Moore’s Flat. He claims that when the Milton Company’s English dam on the headwaters of the river was destroyed.in 1883 the released waters in rushing down the canyon swept away some of his effects and that he lost $2,200 in gold specimens which he had buried under his A Question of Jurisdiction. In the land case of M. D. Calkins against Thomas Peard and others, now before Judge Sawyer of the United States Circuit Court (and which came up Monday when plaintiff by his attorney filed an amended complaint) defendants have been given five days to file a brief in support of a plea of abatement. Defendants admit that the complaint is good, but deny the jurisdiction of the Cirenit Court, alleging the value of the land in contest is less than $2,000. Supreme Court Decisions.

SOREED. Eptrork Transérwt—The marriage question discussed by yoor ‘‘bachelor’’ correspondent in Saturday’s TransCRIPT is among the burning -issues of the hour which saturate our literature aud threaten to produce a social revolution. The sacerdotalists in all cases (except where they are personally interested) rail loudly against our divorce laws, forgetting that statistics show that where there are no divorce laws, all forms of social immorality prevail most. For if a man desires a divorce he is going to have it, if not legally at least practically, and will in addition form such new ties (like George Elliott) as legally divorced persons make. To me the views of your correspondent are decidedly impracticable, although a writer so fascinating in style and so hold in his deductions must secure consideration from every .person who delights in originality as distinguished from the common-place inanity. There is a good deal of truth, any how, in the idea that marriage means, to most women, death to all social freedom, and for this, blind conventionalism and not reason, is responsible. Our daughters have been long since emancipated from the Oriental idéas of the dark ages, but the wives remain nearly as much enslaved as ever. In olden times woman was regarded as physically and morally weak, and asa result was isolated and mistrusted ; and so far as most married woman are concerned the barbarous notion remains to t .is day. Why a girl the day before her marriage should be permitted perfect liberty of movemient, and the day after her marriage be subjected to so much ridiculous restraint,is a mystery, unless it be on the theory that in the meantime association with her husband has contaminated her morals and made her a second edition of himself! What other reason can be given? It will not do to say that the increase of liberty will tend to vice. In not one of the elopements that figure in newspapers is ‘the woman in the case’’ one that has associated in mixed society. On the contrary all such are very particular about appearances and shy in their movements, The co-education of the sexes in some of our colleges hag proven the good result as to the bend of mixed society, and had for a long time most as much opposition as the views I advocate. Some husbands require the most slavish attention from their wives; others ‘‘tag’”? on to them as though they were babies, and others again are of such a. selfish disposition that they cannot bear to have their wives enjoy themselves in mixed society, even in the most innocent pleasures. This cannot be love, because love delights to see its object enjoy herself— as an infallible test of its genuineness. Of course there are a few husbands who are neither jealous nor suspicious and are reully as glad to have their wives socially enjoy themselves, without any morbid discrimination on the ground of sex, as to know that their daughtera are having a good tiie. The drawback here is that-if a married woman shows the slightest dispesition to be generally sociable like her unmarried sister, she is liable to be misunderstood because of the vicious hoodlum notion of the stern sex that construe the commonest civility from her as meaning sentiment. ‘This can he avoided by due prevaution in the selection of her associates. In Paris @ few years since an American girl that walked out without an escort was likewise liable to be ‘‘misunderstood,”’ but she has lived it all down long ago. human nature that can appreciate the differences bet ween thé sexes, hoth'as to principles and nature, in these aspects. In one respect they are both alike, however: they are both social beings and have social instincts and capacity for social enjoyment. Fhe antidote for just rebellion ia a greater liberty. The remedy for the coming social revolution is greater freedom for the wife. Your correspondent and I differ greatly as to the remedy. His plan is for greater independence by meuns of the isolation of the wife from the husbanil, my plan is greater independence by means of her greater liberty. I plead only that the same social freedom that the American girl shows herself so worthy of be extended to the American wife. This is all—no more and no less. When this is conceded less marriages will prove failures. The trials incident to domestic life will be more cheerfully borne because domestic life will be less exclusive. There will be less divorces because the wife will be less dependent on her. husband’s society. The home itself will be less like a convent, and womanhood—married womaphood—will step forth proudly into the world’s arena, free because she. is noble, and noble because she is free!

What Politicians at the National Capital Talk About. Wasuinaron, D. C., August 28. Epttror Transcrrpr — PostmasterGeneral Wanamaker returned to Washington today. He is at present the only cubinet officer in the city and it is not likely that any of his colleagues will be here befure next week. There is likely to be some delay in the building of the five war vessels provided for by the last Congress owing to the fact that the bids received were largely in excess of the amount appropriated to pay for them. The Navy Department has issued néw proposals jn which some modfications are ma whic it is hoped wilt enable thdship builders to get inside of the appropriations with their bids. Bat naval officers say that the appropriations are tuo small to obtain vessels of the class wanted. Similarity of names brings about some queer things. For instance, a short time ago Andrew J. Whitaker, of Illinois, who was formerly a clerk in the Fourth Auditor’s Office, was appointed-deputy Fourth Auditor. Saturday the Fourth Auditor received a letter from Andrew J. Whitaker, of Carpentersville, Illinois, stating that he had’ seen-a notice in a Chicago paper of his appointment as Deputy Fourth Auditor, and that he accepted the appointment. As possession is nine points of the law the first named gentleman wil! probably retain the office while his Illinois namesake will be allowed to keep the disappointment. » Civil Service Commissioner Lyman. now says the members of the Commission have never mentioned to the President anything about the proposed extension of the Civil Service ruleg to the Chiefs of divisions in the departments, but that the commission is unanimously in favor of it. Nobody doubts that at all. The Commission isin favor of anything that will-increase its power, but a great many other people think it should be curtailed instead of increased. Washington is not worrying much about the efforts now being made by several cities to secure the great International Exposition which is to be held in 1892 to celebrate the four hundredth anniversary of the discovery of America. Unless the Exposition is held under the authority of the United States it will not be a success. That makes it certain thatit will be held’in this city, the only place proper for it: To-hold it anywhere else would make’ it simply 4 local affair. Me _ Acting Secretary of State Wharton says the Behring Sea seizures are matters concerning only the Treasury department, the seizures being made by vessels of the revenue marine service. The State department will fiave nothing todo with it unless the British should send it some communication on thé subject, which it has not yet done. ‘ ' Acting Commissioner of the Land Office Stone is now investigating the alleged payment by the last administration of $48,000 on fraudulent surveyors’ vouchers. The matter will be laid before Secretary Noble as soon as he returns to Washington. The nomination of General Mahone bythe Virginia Republicans has created much interest here. ‘ It ensures Virginia a red hot aggressive campaign and it is generally believed by Republicans that the brainy little man will win, and the most sanguine Democrats admit that the result is doubtful. When the fact is remembered that these same Democrats are in a habit of claiming everything this admission is not without meaning. The administration is determined that the foreign delegates to the Three America’s Congress which meets here on the 2ud of October, next, shall see what a country the United States is. An excursion has been: arranged for the delegates, which will leave here on October 8, and return November 14.

To insure the gonversion of food into rich, nutritious blood, it is only necessary to use with persistence and systematically Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters. The fountain head of supply in the animal economy is the stomach. To regulate, to invigorate that organ, and thus facilitate its digestive and assimilative processes, should be the chief aim of thove troubled with a deficit of stamina. Nervousness, insomnia, feeble appetite —there are usually traceable to impaired digestion. Overcome this and wou of necessity dismiss its multifarious, perpelxing and harassing: symptoms. The emaciated can never hope to gain flesh so long as assimilation is imperfect. The Bitters surmounts the orfly obstacle to an increase not-only of vigor, but bodily substance. Conquer also with the Bitters malaria, becageed and liver complaint, constipation an rheumatic trouble. Thoroughness characterises its effects. ee Pears’ is the purest and best Soar ever made.

Lobner’s olive trees, planted two years ago at Colfax on land higher than Chicago Park, are thriving. James Healy has olive trees that he planted two years ago doing well. He is located at the highest point in the Park. : Steve Lissenden spent Sunday and Monday of last week atthe Park. As soon as he can sell or renthis ranch at Newcastle he will come here to stay. With the acreage being set out at Chicago Park there isno reason why the growers here should not have a canning and drying establishment of their own on the co-operative plan, thereby. giving to each the moet for his fruit. Chicago Park took the lead in the county last winter in setting out new orchards. Let her keep it up and send out fine ‘fruit under its own brand, thereby earning a reputation that willsell its fruit for the highest prices. There is no placein California that can offer more inducements to the public than the upper foothills of Nevada county. To the health-seeker we offer a climate unexcelled, which quickly and permanently benefits persons with lung or throat troubles. There is something in the balmy air and atmosphere of the pine, spruce and tarweed that seems to invigorate one at every breath. To the fruit grower we offer the best soil -for the growing of fruits in the State—the famous red soil, whose productions bring the largest return to the producer. Hereall kinds of fruits and nuts thrive, except the tender citrus fruits.’ It is claimed that even the hardiest of oranges (the Japan) will grow here. But the cost of laying out an orange grove being so much greater than laying out an orchard of deciduous fruits, and deciduous fruits paying fully as well, and much sooner than the citrus, the wise orchardist will see the advantage. There are growing at Chicago Park different varieties of apples , peaches, pears, plums, prunes, grapes, olives, figs, nectarines, apricots, almonds, chestnuts and walnuts, some of the trees having been planted only two years bearing fruit this year. We have established close at hand a winery which manufactures wine from grapes raised at an altitude of not less than 2,000 feet above the sea, the monntain grapes, like the mountain Bartlett Pears being syperior and bringing better prices than valley fruit. This is one of the few localities in the State where the white wine grape can be raised to perfection. J There is a project on foot to build a cannery near by inside of ‘a year. Lands here are sold cheap and on easy terms to actual settlers or parties improving, and on long time at low rates of interest. Parties settling here can make no mistake. There is no “boom” in this county, but it is growing steadily with a good class of people. : A Dry Season.

Ferdinand, hearing of this, determined to savehis kinsman, and to this end found means to retard except the Pontiff’s. . At the moment appointed for the execution he repaired to the vatican and begged the life of his friend.
