Jacob Weissbein of Grass, Valley, and a

Sims of the Congregational Church. The

Street Meetings.
The falvationists and the Evangelists
hold regular street meetings every evening.
‘As soon as one Party of these outdoor: religionists is thruugh the other begins.‘ At
present there are no singers in the Salvation
Army here, but the four male members who
nightly appear try to sing, and their vocal
efforts are like unto the music of a heavy
wagon -wheel grating against the brakeblock, so far.as harmony is concerned. The
Evangelists are better singers aud better
talkers and receive more attention from the
crowd. gen

A Fine Rain.
There were.two or three light showers
last night. At 10 o'clock today a regular
rain set in and everything in the way of
vegetation received a thorough soaking.
The storm is rather late in getting here but’
it will be of great benefit tu the foothill
ranchers and even down #s far as Wheatland and Marysville. It is a glorious rain
and two weeks ago would have saved the
wheat crop of the lower counties, which in
many places is a failure. .
Died at Forest Hill.
Mrs. Etta Crockett, sister of Mrs, James
McLacklan of Grars Valley, died at Forest
Hill Monday morning. She was aged 24
years and was born at Yankee Jims, in
Placer county.

San Francisco, April 23, 1894, ©
Eprror Transorier:—I have for several
days been making a business of viewing the
sights out at Sunset City, going about. i:
methodically and conscientiously. Of th:
acres and acres of thingsI have seen and
heard while so employed, no exhibit ha:
had greater interest for me than that of th:
big and little kickera, The dizplay o!
them is neither large nor at all dangerous.
but it keeps up a-racket ‘beside which th:
discordant din of the Leather-lunged barkerson the Midway is as soothing as th
softest and sw-etest strains of an wolia:
harp. The most conspicuous figure ofth:
collection is the Daily Examiner, which ha
for once in its career undertaken a bigge:
task than it can execute. The Fair goe
right along day after day, growing in magnitude and beauty and. attendancedespite
the open opposition of that paper to its ustallishment, and the continual crafty effort:
it has ever since been makiug to bring it t4 premature and ignominious end. I hav
1 yet heard but one explanation of the Exsminer’s campaign—a campai,n which . i
successfully waged would result in greager
injury. to this city, State_and—coast thar
could be repaired in a dozen years by th.
very ablest labors and influence of that
widely read newspaper which has in mos:
other matters than those pertaining to thi:
enterprise been the friend of the péople ana
@ path-finder to progress and enlightenment
. That explanation makes it appear that th:
Examiner is willing to sacritice the Fair i:
orcer te crush in the ruins the political anc
social and business ambitions of Mr. de
Young. Ifthis be the, correct interpreta
tion of its motives, its stock of astutenes
must be getting low. All of our peopk
who know anything know that had it not
been for de Young they would have had m
Midwinter Fair, and they feel duly grateful to the projector. They do not howeve:
for an instant feel that they are under obligations to reciprocate by making him a
United States Senator or anything else tha:
he is not titted to be. If the Faingge!ps hin:
in personal or political way, it will be because in his connection with it he has demonstrated (as he really seems to be doing,
that-heis'a-man of force and push whose
executive ability is of a high order. I am
told in certain quarters that he hasas Direotor General made. enemies.by the whélesal
among those he has been thrown in contact
with while acting in his official capacity—
that. he has been . autocratig and unfair
and even rude in scores of _ instances _ where _-therewas —-not-— the
the slightest excuse therefor. This may all
be true, and again it may grow solely out
of his having performed his duties without
fear or favor. Beitasit may, the almost
universal opinion inSan Francisco as well
as elsewhere is that tne Examiner’s covert
warfare on the Fair is unwarranted and
unpardonable,
The readers of the TRanscriPT have been
kept informed by its regular correspondents
as to what is to be seen at Sunset City, and
how to go about the seeing to the best advantage. Yet none who havé not been there
can realize the magnitude and attractions o'
the exposition. It is a world to itself, and
within its confines are concentrated an array
of exhibits fairly representative of the most
notable products of the two hemispheres.
When one pauses to consider the rapidity of
its growth and that it is the ‘achievement of
one sparsely settled State, he can but be
bewildered ; and if he is a loyal Californian
and a genuine American his bosom will
swell with pfide and his face beam with
gratification. The Chicago Fair was a
mighty triumph’ for the United States ; and
the San Francisco Fair is a still greater one
for California. The superb structures which
now loon up in such magnificence on. the
sand heaps of the Golden Gate will soon
have served the purpose for which they were
built, and then be laid waste, and the marvelous exhibits now in them will be scattered far and wide.
cational and enlightening influences of these
things are imperishable. They give us con-. fidence in our ability to accomplish great
undertakings.. They are a demonstration of
such resources as, with all the State pride
However, the edutypical of Californians, we have not hitherto dared to lay claim to. The lesson they
teach has broadened our vision and braced
up our nerve, and fitted us for still greater
exploits in the times to come.
OUR COUNTY EXHIBIT.
The citizens of Nevada county have in
their mining exhibit something to boast of, .
An occasional casual observer who compares
it with Tuolumne’s will give the palm to.
the latter, which unquestionably excels in
the matter of free gold specimens. Experivnced mining men who have no personal
interest in the matter tell me though that
Nevada county makes the best practical display of all Sontending counties, by very
great odds, and this notwithstanding the
fact that it has been one of the least expensive in gathering and maintenance.
Approximately, the sum of $2,500 was
contributed to the fund. Upto date only
about half of the money has been paid out
and there is nothing owing. There are in
the collection some sixty tons of free milling ores, besides innumerable petrifactions,
nuggets, and other things inivg to the
industry, and the total value of them all is
