No one is surprised when the demagogue takes the stump and about in public measures. All he says is taken with allowance.

When staid journals liko the Francisco Bulletin, and cautious ones like tin- San Francisco Gall, however, speak of and "wild schemes" in legislative bills, we have a right to expect that they are prepared to reduce their indictments to specification- If they fail to do so, it will testify to their haste and inconsideratcness in joining in a popular howl." I'm the Bulletin ami Call are not alone in this. As they have done, so have other reputable in denouncing the equity of the drainage claims bill as a job. We are by no means disposed to speak harshly of our contemporaries for making charges we believe it i- simply impossible for them to tain, or even to specify with such particularity that witnesses can be called. Hut their lavish indulgence in the generalization "job" would justify rude replies. We do not question the honest motive of any who oppose these claims.

This journal ban constantly maintained that the equities of the holders of tin drainage claims were of nich a character that common honesty demanded their recognition by the State. We have upied this position because its justice and to us beyond question. Hut we arc not blind to the fact that ninny of our contemporaries hold to Mte views; nor that they very bitterly denounce these claim--, and pronounce the bill for their payment lo a swindling job. Tin 1 reasonable man who lhnts this charge bristling in his ''daily" at his moming coffee, will naturally ask wherein lies the job? What arc the specifications? Who has stolen? Who L- to steal? etc Hut the reasonable man will search the press from Hmulxildt To San DiegO for a single detailed allegation of fraud in this whole matter. We submit if there is a job in that those -who make the charge shall point out, at the very wherein suspicion may lurk.

We submit that in their failure to do so, we are justified in concluding that the journals using this word "job so glibly, are but indulging in pat generalization, that sounds loud, and gives the paper mouthing it the seeming of great virtue anil most serious honesty. The troth is, that simpler matter, nor a cleaner one, never came before the Legislature of California, we look at it. What are the facts? The State authorized certain public work to be undertaken the irLsdom of the Act is not now at issue, and it may be admitted, if our opponents de- I sire, that it was done in the light of the i moon and was a most insane act. Under the law so authorizing the work, certain citizens expended moneys for the State in i the purchase of supplies and payment of laborers upon such work. Certain others themselves labored upon the structures ordered to be built.

None, or at least few, of these have been paid in full, and many of them not at all. Some of them, by reason of non-payment, have been reduced to absolute want, and wrecked in business I and in life. The non-payment was due to I the fact that the Act authorizing the work I was held by the Supreme Court to be unconstitutiona and that it was unconstitutional, and an illegal Act, is to be admitted and put out of all question, for the sake of the whole argu- ment. But it remains that those who i invested and labored under the Act up to the time of the ruling of the Court, had every reason to believe it to be a lawful Act had every reason to repose upon the i Act of legislation, and every passible rea- I son to believe that the State contracting a debt with them would pay it. These claimants, then, have no legal claims against the State; they have, we believe, never made any such pretense their claims are equitable only.

But equity appeals more forcibly to the sense of honesty than a lawful right ever can. It resolves itself, therefore, simply into the question whether the State df California will plead the baby act against the appeals of these claimants. There is nothing else in it. have not examined any brief of these claimants; our knowledge of the matter is that of common history in this community, and that puts no blush upon these people; our idea of the whole matter is just such as the logic of fair dealing suggests. But if there are any jobs in the heart of these claims, it is the easiest of tasks to provide for their uncovering.

An equitable claim, least of all others, is equal to secreting a fraud. The payment of such claims certainly can he guarded against the faintest semblance of dishonesty. But it happens that the equitable debts referred to were all contracted under a then effective law that guarded the work very carefully. It was a matter of lowest bid" down to the very quick. The three men given administrative charge are widely known throughout the State, and their integrity, we venture to assert, has never been questioned.

That they severely executed the trusts given them by the State, and with strictest regard to truth, honest performance and wise economy, we have yet to hear any man deny. Now, if under these conditions, there were "swindling contractors," as the San Jose Herald asserts, or as the Bulletin and Call intimate, the people of this section of California would be placed under mighty obligations to those journals by the disclosure. Some of the chief contractors were among the most respected and esteemed citizens of Marysville, whose good name and high character have never been smirched. Some of them were Bear River farmers, who took their teams from their plow and labored on works believed to be wisely constructed for defense of their homes, and which construction the best engineering skill of the day had advised. Some of the men unpaid are respected citizens of Sacramento, where their good name stands unquestioned before all men.

But if it might be admitted, with truth, that some swindling contractors have been paid, it will occur to the reasonable man that it is no reason why the honest, unpaid claim shall be rejected. To hold to the contrary is to advance an inhuman style of logic. It is the easiest thing in the world to call people "swindling contractors," but a very different thing indeed to specify the charges. Now we will venture a wager that the papers dealing in the "job" shibboleth do not know of a swindling contract in the whole matter of the debris dam construction, and that they never did know of one. That they cannot name a contractor on the work whom they are prepared to call a swindler.

That they cannot specify, even vaguely, where any swindling work was done, or where any work was not done ultimately according to the specifications approved by the or that the specifications were cheats, or the engineers dishonest that they cannot specify a dollar stolen, or that a dollar or thing of value was stolen, or where a dollar was stolen, or how or by what ever BO vaguely a swindle was perpetrated in dollars, goods or things of value. Go over this matter as one may, look at it in all lights, and it resolves itself into this: The equities are all with the claimants; the law is with the State the opposition is first, cold and pulseless law, and secondly, blind, unreasoning, sweeping, vituperative charges, in support of which not a single specification is laid or scintilla of proof offered. We submit in all fairness to our contemporaries if it is becoming the profession of journalism to thus indulge in libclons generalizations and denounce as cheating and swindling that, concerning which not a single specification is made. In all fairness we submit if it is manly to charge citizens with being swindlers and cheats, and refuse to so frame the indictment that the defendants can reply, If the journalism of the State proposes to hoacst with the public it will cease this wholesale vilifying, or come down to detail of charge, even if it cannot cite the proofs. The VaDejo Chronicle says: The completion of the Southern Pacific has given the Arizona trade to the more enterprising merchants of the Bast By the reductions of freight, the drummers for Chicago, St- Louis and Cincinnati have been able to undersell the Califoraians in Colorado and adjacent country." That is a half truth only.

If what is known as the Southern Pacific Etailrocd had never Ik'ch constructed, Eastern roads penetrating Arizona would have opened that field to the Easterners. In fact, they had begun to do so before the Southern Pacific had connected San Francisco with the territory. The Southern Pacific Railroad, indeed, has been the means, and the only means of retaining to the State what southern territorial trade we have. German i i certainly justified in continuing in operation the laws against the Socialists. To relax them, in the face of recent events, would be to encourage brutal assaults upon order in more than one quarter.

A party that can laud the assassination of Dr. and decorate his murderer a hero, cannot too severely proceeded against. The Socialistic press of Germany preaches assassination openly, not only in that country, but elsewhere. In the of such declarations, to withdraw the anti-Socialistic laws is but to invite 1 1 a LAST NIGHT'S NEWS. I MORE ABOI'T THK MAKE-UP OF TKE NEW CABINET.

I i Shocking Tragedy in Sc- rious Railroad Affairs Abroad. 'SPECIAL DISPATCHES TO THE DOMESTIC. The Extra Session Question. I February from the expression of members of Congress, when Bpeakirg for themselves alone, anil to some extent from the course of events last week, an extra session of Congress is no longer probable, but may be possible, as expressions of fear or convictions are beard on all hands that some party or faction, not including the persons speaking, would welcome an extra session, and it is conceded everywhere that the condition of public business is Bach that their purposes, if entertained, may be effected, and perhaps without a disclosure of the responsibility therefore in any quarter. Even if every one be credited with straightforward purpose of working to secure the passage of the appropriation bills before the 4th of March, the fact remains that under the long-existing rules of the House the roads to entanglement are many and short, while the ways to a solution of possible, parliamentary" difficulties are few and involved.

To-Day's Programme. Washington, February loth. In the Senate consideration of the Indian appropriation bill will be continual, and probably concluded to morrow. The agricultural bill will then be disposed of. The unfinished business in the Senate in the morning hour is the Dcs Moines river land bill, and after the morning hour the contract-labor bill.

The Texas Pacific forfeiture bill, the anti-silver bill and the bill for the admission of Tacoma are measures most likely to be pressed for consideration when the labor bill is disposed of, if no appropriation bills are then ready for discussion. The House To-Day. February 15th. If the regular order of business, which is the call of the committees for motions to suspend the rules, is enforced in the House to-morrow, General Slocum will move to suspend the rules and pass the bill to place General Grant on the retired list of the army. The Committee on Military Affairs will be the first committee called, and Slocum has been instructed to call up that measure.

It is hardly likely, though, that the regular business will be proceeded with. On Saturday night the House considered forty of the 108 pages of the legislative, executive and judicial appropriation bill, and took a recess until 10 o'clock Monday morning. The session of Monday begins at 11 o'clock, and unless an adjournment can be had before that hour the legislative day of Monday will be lost. It is understood to be the intention ofHolman, who lias charge of the legislative bill, to oppose an adjournment, and continue Saturday's session through Monday. If he succeeds in this Slocum will be compelled to take his chance with the large number of other members who are expecting recognition for motions to suspend the rules during the last six days of the when matters arc in order.

A fight will probably be made against Holnian by those who favor the Grant retirement bill, and by other members who are anxious to get bills through under the ten objections" rule, and who will be cut oil' if Monday's session is vacated. Cleveland's Cabinet. Washington, February 15th. An Albany correspondent of a Sunday newspaper, who enjoys the confidence of Lamont. telegraphs that Manning can have a Cabinet office if he wants it, and that Manning will only enter the Cabinet if asked to do it as a personal matter.

This correspondent adds: It may as well be understood at once by Senators and members in Washington that Cleveland sees no reason why be should not put Tliunnan into his Cabinet, if he can arrange the other appointments so as not to ignore any important section of the country. That Thunnan will be either Secretary of State or Secretary of the Interior is now as likely as anything that Cleveland has been reported as intending to do. The President-elect is not affected in the least by John McLean's argument that Ohio ought to be passed by in the making up of the Cabinet, because of internal dissensions there. Cleveland is not making up his Cabinet in order to heal Democratic dissensions in particular localities. His aim is to call the strongest and best men in the Democratic party to his aid.

The long experience and splendid reputation of Thurroan renders him essentially available as a Cabinet otlicer in the opinion of the new President. It is even possible that Thurman may be Secretary of the Treasury. regard' to a New England member of the Cabinet. I violate no confidence in saying that the position probably lies between Hon. John Qnincy Adams and Hon.

Josiah G. Abbott, of Massachusetts. Judge Abbott is known for his long record asa Democratic leader in his State, and for his participation in the Electoral Commission of 1877, when lie was a member of the House of Representatives. His appointment, it is probable, would be less satisfactory to the mugwum 1 clement in Massachusetts than that of Adams, who, although he has acted constantly with the Democrats for the past twenty years, still retains all his native independence of political opinion. It is not likely that any member of the Cabinet will betaken from Connecticut or any other of the New England States." Cleveland at Home.

PACIFIC SLOPE. I'ISVATCHES TO THB ARIZONA. Party Lines Bring Drawn. ott. February The following shows how strong the party lines are being drawn in Arizona during the session of the Legislature.

A resolution was introduced this morning in the lower house of the Legislature complimentary to Governor Tritle. mentioning his efficient services for suppressing lawlessness, promoting order and bringing prosperity to the entire Territory during his administration, all of which has been admitted by citizens irrespective of party, and by the public press of Arizona, and for such services Presidentelect Cleveland was asked to retain him in office until the expiration of his commission, February 9, 1886. The Democratic members, assuming to sec in the resolution a partisan measure, forced an adjournment, immediately called a strict party-caucus, and not only refused to pass any resolution complimentary to any Republican official, but held to the proposition that the President-elect should at once alter his inauguration remove every Republican official and appoint Democrats to their places, the civilservice rules to the contrary notwithstanding. UTAH. Frightlul Fourteen Persons Ituried.

Salt Lark, February loth. Startling news has been brought here from Little Cottonwood announcing that the town of Alta. in Cottonwood canyon, in this Territory, had been nearly wiped out by an avalanche. Snow had been falling there for a week, having attained a depth of 12 feet on a level, and it is still storming hard. Friday night, soon after 8 o'clock, a tremendous volume of snow swept down over the Emma mine works, hut doing no damage there except to carry away the smokestack.

Then it struck the town of Alta, crushing about three-fourths of it, but fortunately many of the houses had been deserted lor the winter. The place is built at the foot of converging gulches, ami the slides have a fair mark. Tucker's boarding-house was swept away and his hotel crushed. The Vallejo works, including buildings and tramways, were crushed. Two men at this mint- happened to be in the drift and escaped injury.

Strickley Tucker's and Wallace's stores were injured but slightly. Powers' butcher shop and Simpson's drug store were the only buildings which entirely escaped injury. A large portion of the persons lost were in the boarding-house ami hotel. Twenty-six in all were buried. Twelve of them were dug out alive Saturday morning.

The rest are all undoubtedly dead. The men from the City of Rocks mine and the Evergreen formed a digging force to get out the bodies. Three had been taken out at last accounts, amid much difficulty and in a heavy storm and severe cold. Timothy Madden was not dead when brought out. but died soon after.

The bodies of James Watson and Mrs. John Ford were also taken out quite dead. Following is a correct list of those not yet recovered Andrew S. White, Barney Gilson, Fred Cullinan, Mattie Hickey, Charley Voik (Chinaman), Big Jim Jerry Reagan, David P. Evans, a child of Mrs.

Ford" and two children of Ed Ballon. It is possible thai some of the above named may be alive, as on a former occasion some were found alive after having been buried three days. The losses to property are as follows: Tucker's hotel. $2,500: Smith's brewery. Vallejo mine, Case's bouse, $o00: O'Reilley's store, Baldy Fritz's saloon.

RECORD-UNION An editorial in your paper of this date declares in effect that complaint has reached you from Placer, El Dorado and Amador counties that none of the irrigation bills before the Legislature provide forgiving to irrigators aright of way across the lands of upper proprietors, where such right of way is absolutely necessary to the success of lower land owners.

I would beg to call your'attention, and the attention of the people thus complaining, to the provisions of Senate Hill No. 22, introduced by myself early in the session. Section 11 of said bill, which I think fully covers the grievance complained of, reads as follows Section 11. Whenever any person, company, association, or corporation, shrill have acquired the right to appropriate water, or have acquired the right to appropriate such water this state, cannot any i-omity thereof purehaseata reasonable price the necessary and reasonable right of way for the conveyance of such water to the place or places of use or uses thereof, for purposes which are in this Act declared to ji public use.such penon, company, association, or corporation, may proceed to condemn thf luiiils and premises necessary to such right of way, under tne provisions of title seven, of part third, of the Code oi Civil Procedure of this State, and amendments made and to made thereto, ami all the provisions of said soiiir as the same can be made applicable, relating to the condemnation and taking of property lor public uses, shall be applicable to the provisions of tins Act. This bill, in other respects, is important to the people and the prosperity of the counties named by you, and they can forward their interests by assisting in the way of petitions and other legitimate means, in urging its passage.

Respectfully, .1. A. Filcheb. Senate Chamber, Sacramento, February 1-4, Fish and Game Laws. Eds.

Kkcokdd Oiuos: I see by your paper that a new law concerning fish and game is under consideration by the Legiv lature. As to the close season of salmon, our law makers! don't seem to know when they spawn- They are talking about having a close season from the first of August to the first of September. They might as well have none at all, if the protection of salmon is the purpose of the law. for they don't commence spawning until from the SSth of August till the first of September. Priorto that time they lay in deep holes and move hut little.

The close season then should lie from the lirst of September to the lirst of October. At the V. 8. Fishery on the Me- Cloud, the salmon commence spawning from the 25th of August to the lirst of September. I have worked about for the last ten years, and have taken notice of salmon and trout as to their Spawning season since 1855.

The trout spawn from January to May: the salmon from the 25th of August to the 10th of October. There should be a difference made in the deer law, as to the close season between the southern counties and the northern counties of the State. Close season in the northern counties should he from the lirst of August to the first of December. This he about right in the counties of Siskiyou, Modoc and Lassen. J.

G. Phelps, our worthy exmember of Congress, lie purchased of the Central Pacific Railroad Company several thousand acres of foothill fruit land, which is being sold, with water to irrigate, at low prices. Our town was at a standstill until the completion of the flume and mills of Leach A Woltera, which give employment to a large number of men. In the last year thirty houses have been built, and judging from general appearances the number will be doubled during the summer. Owing to liberal rates on wood, lumber, to Sacramento, we will do our trading there in the future.

A gentleman of Sacramento is here looking into the wood business, and hopes to so arrange matters as to bo able to furnish your city with the best of oak wood at rates heretofore unknown. The proprietors" of this town met a few days ago for the purpose of giving it a name. Stanford was chosen in honor of Califorilia's talented statesman, Senator Leland Stanford. If the growth of our town can keep pace with the fame of this worthy man we will be satislied. Yours, J.

Eds. Eecobd-TJxios Much has been said by the press, and much more by medical journals, to condemn the present mode of disposal of our dead but thunder tones speaks the harrowing news that a young lady of West Virginia had been buried alive. In the press dispatches of the 13th inst. was an account of the burial of a young woman (Mary Cox) near Springfield, West Virginia. She was given two doses of morphia for neuralgia of the stomach, and soon after her death was announced, and two days later she was buried.

A lady friend at the funeral insisted that the girl was not dead, and urged that a physician be sent for. That night the dogs of a man living near the graveyard stationed themselves near the tomb and kept up a persistent bowling. Next day the grave was opened, and to the horror of all was found the girl bad been buried alive. The lining was torn from the sides of the coffin and the pillow was in shreds. The poor girl had literally stripped the clothes from her body.

Her arms and hands were torn and bleeding, her lips bitten through, and handfuls of hair were torn from her head. The girl had come to life and evidently male a fearful struggle to escape. awful affair tills the community with horror," says the dispatch. If this is the possibility to which we subject our dearly-beloved ones, may God have mercy on those who do not strain every nerve in their body, who do not tax their brains to their utmost capacity to accomplish reform. If anyone supposed that burying alive happened at very great intervals only, let him examine the press dispatches of the last six weeks, where there are no less than three such eases reported from three different States.

Let us. however, suppose for a moment that only one such case happened out of a million interments. The reader of this may furnish the next one out of that million, for the chances are for all alike, who are supposed to have died a natural death. But let us reflect a little more upon the scarcity of such cases. If we consider that in the above-mentioned three cases the discovery that the perse ins were buried alive was made by mere accident as, for instance, in the case of Miss Cox, where the dogs, by their sense of hearing, recognized the cries the victim in the graye it fortifies the conviction that if all the graves of a cemetery could be opened and examined dozens of victims would bo found whose position and surrounding bear undisputable evidences of their having been buried alive.

"Hut." it is often said, it not possible thai a person might be cremated alive." The answer is: At a properly-conducted crematory, no: for the following reasons Oneof the appurtenances of such a crematory consists of a room in which a li i i degree of temperature is maintained. In this room the dead body is upon an apparatus that would ring an alarm at the very slightest motion of the body, and attract the attention of the watchman. The high degree of temperature serves the double purpose of tending to bring the body to life if it is a case of suspended animation, or, if of real death, tobringaboul a speedy decomposition. The body remains thereuntil unmistakable signs of decomposition make their appearance, for that is the im.st absolute prool of death. But if there were no such safeguard connected with a crematory, then We would have the choice between two evils: either of being cremated, without a chance of suffering any agony whatever.or of being buried, and then living a few hours more in the grave, only to die there the most horrible oi deaths known toman.

Take your choice. lam aware that a fjreat many people turn with a shudder from such reading. Hut to ignore, is not to apply a remedy. The press, the pioneer of progress and light, ought to take this subject up with more energy than has been exhibited so far, with few exceptions otherwise the people will be too slow to comprehend the enormity of the outrage committed against the dead and the living by burial. do not recognize ignorance upon a subject ii such vast importance, particularly not when confronted in a representative body oi the people.

This is evident from the careless manner in which Assembly Bill No. 409, relating to cremation, was permitted to sleep in care of the clerk lor fully ten days before it was turned over to the committee to which it was assigned. The mishap may yet be remedied if that bill is taken up on special order and put through. Al least a beginning ought to be made with what is so all-important to every family and (very community, and that has in it no politics and only the affirmation of the right of such of us as choose to cremate rather than bury our dead. The results of scientific investigations, as explained in the interview published in the RGCOKS I of February 13th, make it plain that whenever a dead human body is underground, or in a vault, a crime is committed, not only against the present, but also against future generations.

To them the present graveyards will be pestilencebreeding spots, inherited as a curse from their forefathers, for cremation will as surely be the mode for disposal of their dead, as that the earth is moving and intelligence broadening. The very monuments over the graves will then tell of the criminal blindness and prejudice of OUT time. Until that age is reached, it wonld be well for parents to keep at leust tlieir living children away Gram the graveyard. Ii is proved by science to be a dangerous place tor them as a recreation-ground, or even for casual visitation. The foal air and disease germs that penetrate the entire soil Cannot easily be noticed, but they are there nevertheless, and eager to attack their little victimsandsow the seeds diphtheria or typhoid fever.

This is beyond dispute. 1 trust that a word to the wise is sufficient, and that California will by her Legislature do what the chief cities of the Union have done already and permit cremation. Yours. Max Levy, Secretary First Cremation Society of San Francisco. METROFOIjITAX THEATER.
