WASHINGTON, Dec« 7.—Information
has reached here from New York that
Collis P. Huntington has practically

Pacific. The plan is to place a blanket
mortgage for $106,000,000, upon the
property at 4 per cent. As the net
earnings of the road last year were
$6,600,000, it is in a condition to take

favor.

WANT PEACE.
Anti-Miners Who Are Ont For
the Staff
The Holy Horror of a Shocked Esteemed
Contemporary.
The Grass Valley Union is shocked
beyond expression because the TRANscript whilé in a serio-comic bumor
yesterday called an anti-mining spy
who was in town asknnk and said he
deserved to be ducked in the nearest
ditch.
The Union says this spy “should receive the courtesies due a gentleman.”
If be be entitled to'such courtesies he
. iis built on a different plan from some
of his predecessors who have been
sent here by the Anti-Debris Association, for they won distinction as habitues of houses of ill-fame, bribe-takers
and all-around scoundrels. In the
TkaNscripr’s opinion a man who will
hire out to do such work has no claims
to the respectful consideration of the
people of Nevada county, and although
they may not have the hardihood to
come out openly and say as much,
years of observation shows that the
people here, almost without exception,
are-of a like opinion. “It is all very
well to say, as the anti-miners _ and
their sympathizers and organs do, that
if the miners are complying with the
law they have nothing to fear from
these fellows, and that a protest against
their presence is the next thing to an
actual criminal’s objection to the restraints that the regularly constituted
peace authorities and the provisions of
the code impose upon him and hedge
him about with; but this is not true,
for the two cases are not parallel. The
spy McAlpiue and his kind are the
hirelings of a coterie of private citizens
of a few/valley counties, and the ruling spifits of this combination are popalarly: Supposed to keep alive the agitation.for their own selfish purposes.
[here is a marked division of opinion
among the people of their own counties as to their sincerity’ and honesty of ‘purpose, as is frequently made
manifest by the protests of numerous
taxpayers of those counties to the constant drain upon their public treasuries
for the money with which to hire the
officers of the Anti-Debris Association
and the lawyers and watchmen they
give other sinecures to.
The miners of California as reputaBaud Mave dh AGB ae eRE St ehlah
against being hounded and _ harried
while in the legitimate prosecution of
their industry by McAlpine or any
other of his stripe who are in reality
nothing more nor less than the hired
men of afew other men like Phipps,
Green. & Co., and who to hold their job
must in the language of the late lawyer Sexey “make a showing for their
money,” whether the facts justify that
showing or not.
The Union says:
“The old feud between the farmers and winers is at an end
and such publications as this
only tend to renew strife. The
Miners’ Association is endeavoring to remedy the long-felt
breech and the building the restraining dams has solved the
problem.”
Stuff and nonsense. The “feud” will
never die out so far as the conspirators are concerned until the fat salaries
of the agitators in that Association are
counties who have been paying tribute
to them for many years. These agitators are not in the game to “remedy
the long-felt breech” as our contemporary feelingly remarks with such a
disregard for what it means to say.
The Anti-Debris folks do not want
peace tocome, for it would cut: off
their revenues. They do not want it
any more than the Devil bimself wants
to make a treaty with the powers of
Heaven.

The State Board of Trade is going to
extend the scope of its usefulness, and
in the permanent exposition of the products of California to be established
as soon as it is comfortably settled in
an exhibition of the products and
manufactures of the newest possession
of America—the Philippine Islands.
This is expected to draw crowds.
The next meeting of the State Board
of Trade will be an important one. It
will be held a week from yesterday,
and the principal matter to be discussed
will be the formation of plans for the
proper representation of California at
the World’s Exposition in Paris in 1900.
In conversation with the Report yesterday, W. H. Mills, whose efforts have
always directed toward building up the
State, said that there was some fear
that the next Legislature would make
no appropriation for the purpose. It
was suggested that.a $200,000 appropriation had been talked of, but Mr. Mills
said that as California would have only
a limited space as part:of the space
allotted to all of America, he would be
personally opposed to asking for so
much money.* _~
“They may. say,” he said, “that if we
get $200,000 we need spend only what
we have to.and turn the rest of it back,
but every body knows that if a $200,000
appropriation be made all of it will be
expened.” ‘
Mr. Mills has given the subject conclearly outlined.
“T think,” said he, “that we ought to
have an exhibition that would show the
processes, for instance, that are used
in drying fruits—the natural fruit, the
fruit in process of drying, the fruit
packed and so on. Then we ought to
have canned fruitsand wine. It would
be a good plan to have a lunch every
day served at say a little less than cost,
so that if we got $10,000 we could turn
back into the funds $4,000 and the total
cost would be only $6,000. I never
could see what good it was to let people gaze and gaze at the outside of cans
and jars of fruit. I don’t believe in
that kind of an exhibition. What I do
believe in is to give an exhibition of
our products that will be the best the
world has ever seen. Let us have a
lunch that will enable the people to
taste our fruits and our wines—have
people to wait on the visitors and
serve the lunch at a very small price—
do it so cheaply as to have a constant
run.of custom. The place to sell goods
is where they are used. The place to
sell California wines is where wine is
freely used, and that is among the
Latin races.”
SICK SCHOOL CHILDREN.
A Teacher Speaks of the Cause.
I have charge of the second grade in
the public schools here, and trace
these children to improper feeding.
When a sick child is asked what was
had for breakfast, the reply almost
universally includes a cup of coffee.
An illustration is that of my sister’s
oldest boy, Will Wilson of Lennox, Ia.
For a long time he had no appetite for
breakfast, but insisted on coffee, which
they would give him, weakened some
with cream, but no matter how little
coffee he had, it brought ‘on his tad
spells. Since they have been using
Postum Food Coffee in their family,
the boy is well and can have all of the
Postum Coffee he wants for -breakfast.
I was ordered by myphysician to
quit the use of coffee some time ago,
able to it, but I could not quit its use
until. I found Postum. ‘Then the
change did not disturb me in the
appeared.
I have a long list of friends who use
Postum and enjoy it very much, but
in every case they have had ‘to learn
that Postum is only good when it is
boiled long enough to bring out the
flavor. Margaret Scroggs, 24 W. 12th

Crosses the Dark River.
J. Harvey Helm, in early times one
of the best known residents of this city
and county and a leader of the Democracy here for years, died in San
Francisco Monday at theage of seventytwo years.
For years Mr. Helm owned and conducted the livery stable on Broad
street now ‘belonging to James Hennessy. He built the dwellig house on
Nevada street at present owney by
C. J. Naffziger.
In 1867 he was elected County Treasurer and served one term.
In the seventies he:sold the Pennsy!vania mine just northwest of town for
$60,000 and about 1875 removed to San
Francisco with his family and began
speculating in mining stocks. He met
with a series of reverses and lost most
of his wealth. Later he had charge of
a mining operation in Arizona. Of
late years he has not been engaged in
any busines.
Two sons survive Mr. Helm, his wife
having died many years ago.
