Democratic Dilemmas~A President Who Does Not Practice His Preachifigs, : WaAsHINGron, Aug. 2d, 1888. Senator Wilson, of Iowa, from the committee on education and labor, has reported favorably to the Senate the House bill creating boards of arbi(ration for settling controversies between railroads and their employes. The Senate, by # very d cisive vote refused to prohibit the ab of steam _. plate printing machines in the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. So certain are the Democrats of the rejection of the fisheries treaty, that Senator Morgan, of Alabama, in making a Speech in favor of the treaty, advised Cleveland to withdraw it until after the election, in order to prevent the Republicans from using it as campaign material. This was a very significant suggestion, but Cleveland will hardly dare to act upon it, however much he might wish to do so. The more the treaty is debated, the worse the administration appears. There never was such a demand for tariff documents from all over_-the country as at present. The Reprblican Congressional committee, which will haye the preparation.of all Republican’ documents, have opened their headquarters here, and will shortly be prepared to fill all demands. A funny sort of a fairy story has been gotten up by an agent of the Treasury department. He claims that he knows of many millions of dollars worth of property, which belonged’ to Flat for two weeks’ trial to see if he _HERE AND THERE, © cee aca Local Interest, Mountain Divison, U.R.

B. ieee Publisher, Indianapolis, There is more travel on the road between this city and Grass Valley than on all the others combined. Notwithstanding this fact, the aforesaid road is a disgrace to a civilized community. From Town Talk-to Grass Valley it is not safe to drive a horse on more than a‘‘dog-trot’”’ for fear of injuring the anitral or breaking the springs of the vehicle that goes over it. Those who go that way declare itto be the most villianous road on the coast. To show how it is appreciated by outsiders, it is only necessary to rélate an incident that occurred day before yesterday. Two drummers hired a team at Grass Valley to come to this city, and they intended to return there by the same conveyance. On reaching this city they applied for a man to take the team back, and one of them expressed himself in this way: ‘‘I want to hire a man to take this team back to Grass Valley. I havea nice little wife and four lovely children at the Bay, and on their account, by ——,I don’t intend to jeopardize my life by going over that damnable road again.”” By paying a man a liberal price the team was sent back to the owners. Were it a toll road, the owner would have been mobbed long ago. Asit is a county road, there is nothing tangible for the long-suffering public to take revenge on., Looking for a Democrat: Art. Barton, the blacksmith, is actively engaged in searching for some Democrat who is rash enough to wager . $100. that Cleveland will be elected President of the United States. He has been engaged in the hunt for several days, but has not yet found such a party.

If miners were allowed to run fine tailings into the streams the problem of working these mines would be greatly simplified. “The building of settling dams, and the carrying of tine tailings into the tnle swamps, would be:a work of no great magnitude, if taken in hand by the United States. It would bring a return to the treasury of a hundred fold, and at the same time be a blessing to a troubled Administration by helping to relieve the treasury of a dangerous surplus.”” Sprinkline the Streets. Geo. F. Jacobs and I. J. Rolfe were around town yesterday collecting mon ey with which to keep the road between this.city and Glenbrook Park sprinkled till after Fair time.

Democratic Dilemmas~A President Who Does Not Practice His Preachifigs, : WaAsHINGron, Aug. 2d, 1888. Senator Wilson, of Iowa, from the committee on education and labor, has reported favorably to the Senate the House bill creating boards of arbi(ration for settling controversies between railroads and their employes. The Senate, by # very d cisive vote refused to prohibit the ab of steam _. plate printing machines in the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. So certain are the Democrats of the rejection of the fisheries treaty, that Senator Morgan, of Alabama, in making a Speech in favor of the treaty, advised Cleveland to withdraw it until after the election, in order to prevent the Republicans from using it as campaign material. This was a very significant suggestion, but Cleveland will hardly dare to act upon it, however much he might wish to do so. The more the treaty is debated, the worse the administration appears. There never was such a demand for tariff documents from all over_-the country as at present. The Reprblican Congressional committee, which will haye the preparation.of all Republican’ documents, have opened their headquarters here, and will shortly be prepared to fill all demands. A funny sort of a fairy story has been gotten up by an agent of the Treasury department. He claims that he knows of many millions of dollars worth of property, which belonged’ to Flat for two weeks’ trial to see if he _HERE AND THERE, © cee aca Local Interest, Mountain Divison, U.R.

B. ieee Publisher, Indianapolis, There is more travel on the road between this city and Grass Valley than on all the others combined. Notwithstanding this fact, the aforesaid road is a disgrace to a civilized community. From Town Talk-to Grass Valley it is not safe to drive a horse on more than a‘‘dog-trot’”’ for fear of injuring the anitral or breaking the springs of the vehicle that goes over it. Those who go that way declare itto be the most villianous road on the coast. To show how it is appreciated by outsiders, it is only necessary to rélate an incident that occurred day before yesterday. Two drummers hired a team at Grass Valley to come to this city, and they intended to return there by the same conveyance. On reaching this city they applied for a man to take the team back, and one of them expressed himself in this way: ‘‘I want to hire a man to take this team back to Grass Valley. I havea nice little wife and four lovely children at the Bay, and on their account, by ——,I don’t intend to jeopardize my life by going over that damnable road again.”” By paying a man a liberal price the team was sent back to the owners. Were it a toll road, the owner would have been mobbed long ago. Asit is a county road, there is nothing tangible for the long-suffering public to take revenge on., Looking for a Democrat: Art. Barton, the blacksmith, is actively engaged in searching for some Democrat who is rash enough to wager . $100. that Cleveland will be elected President of the United States. He has been engaged in the hunt for several days, but has not yet found such a party.

If miners were allowed to run fine tailings into the streams the problem of working these mines would be greatly simplified. “The building of settling dams, and the carrying of tine tailings into the tnle swamps, would be:a work of no great magnitude, if taken in hand by the United States.
