Some of our young people are talking of getting up an old-fashioned debating society this fall, hiring a hall and holding weekly meetings. Why not act instead of talking? Such a society would be an excellent thing all around. It has been Many years since Nevada City bad: one, and then: the membership was confined to men who used to meet down in Hibernia Hall and urgue themselves blind. They had lots of fuh-as long as it lasted, and there was a good deal ef eloquence developed from first to” last. Judge Buckley, Postmaster Carr and 0.C Conlan, who were a good deal younger then than they are now, were among the champion hair-splitters of the club. The side that they were on always won, and after awhile the other met bers, despairing of ever being able to cope with such oratorical whirlwinds, dropped out one by one and the organization died a natural death. —o@e Causes of Drunkenness. The British Inspector of Inebriates Says that while immoderate drinking is-frightfally-common among the in. dustrial classes, it is still more prevalent among the upper ten, and that among women of all classes drunkenness is increasing rapidly. Of 442 cases in the Dalrymple Home, 101 were aniversity men and 316 were well educated; 285 were married. In 228 cases the downfall was attributed to sociability, 26 to ill health, 32 to overwork, and in 55 per cent of the cases the ex-. eess was traceable to hereditary . indications. ° —_—— Is ia New York.

The intense heat made it an. appropriate month to name after Julius ine! fae a ee Rerorts fromthe mounts: rict should be, as has been said, represented by a Republican, Weare a grateful people. We realize that President McKinley . has done, not only for California, but. forthe people of the whole United States, and we want to show our appreciation and gratitade by rolling ap a Republican majority in every District and every county of the State of California in behalf of its candidates. Now, so far as the interests of this. convention are concerned, I represent no section or faction. If I should be elected to Congress, I will encourage the mining industry as well as the industry of the agriculturist, I know that those interests are great interests, and I appreciate the fact that California—the brightest State in the Union, the State of more industries than any other State—owes its existence to the mining industry. Iassure you there is no prejadice in Sacramento against mining; that isa mistake. Itis true we have our contests in our Courts over what is hydraulic mining, but that is settled, and there is no conflict now. “We want assistance from the Government; we want to maintain the channels of our rivers; we must maintain the mining industry that has made California a great State, and which brought our fathers here who ‘built it that we might.enjoy the many privileges and for our benefit, and if it is my pleasure to répresént this District in Congress, every time and upon every occasion it shall be my hope and my endeavor to secure that assistance from the Government which we are entitled to, and which has ‘been <denied to us in the past. If we read the history of California and realize the production of . : this state, and especially the production of gold, which did so much to uphold our Nation in its hour of peril, there is a0 one who has a spark of gratitude in his heart but will feel that industry should be encouraged and maintained, and when they say that a man from Sacramento is opposed to the mining industry, they make a mistake.” ~~ “Way is it that geniuses are nearly . . always eccentric?” “I guess it must be because that’s about the only way in which genius can obtain recognition.” ———-— + 7m + A Large fruit festival was given by the Greeks of Evanston last Sunday in commemoration. of the birthof the Virgin Mary.
