Grand Reporter Curry has issued his black list circular for October. It "THE CHINESE MUST 00." Ed.

Sentinel: In early days of America poverty was a sort of crime; men were imprisoned for debt. If a man was idle it was his own fault (unless disabled of course). How is it now? Industry does not save a man from poverty. There are combinations of circumstances in the way of ordinary workers that nobody can resist. With the granaries of the country full to bursting; breadstuff cheaper than it ever was in the history of the country, there are people hungry, and from no fault of theirs.

In this fan-land of California, where everything is favorable to people of small means, there is genuine pinching of poverty. Of course in some cases it is caused by the evil course of tho bread-winner. We have in our midst some awful sponges absorbing peoples' living. But there is one chief cause of hard times in this State. The California papers storm at you if you say much about dull times.

They are continu ally pressing people to como here. Then when they do come and find this Chinoso wall to confront, and their means spent In making the change, they are given to understand that people coming in have no right to find fault. It is presuming on their part. Olympia, W. did the same thing.

A grand shooting match will take place at Lorenzo on Thanksgiving Day if the weather permits. Road Overseer Baldwin is busy repairing the roads damaged by tho recent rains, which are in pretty good condition at present. Ho is also going to elevate the bridge that crosses from the new town to Geo. II. Chap-pell's store.

The bridge will be raised an additional height of about six foot, with a sidewalk and a railing on the outsido. Subscriptions have already been taken among our citizens to the amount of about one hundred dollars, and a liberal share is expected from tho Railroad Co. There are many bridges in this vicinity that are sadly in need of repair in the way of railing, or some protection to persons who daily travel to and fro over these bridges. I have noticed on one or two occasions on the Boulder Creek road, bridges with no railing where one or two false steps to the right or left would cause instant death upon the rocks two hundred feet below. It seems strange that thoy should have been so long neglected, when the cost of building a railing be only a trifle, and might be the means of sav.

It mat-tors not, in my opinion, who raised the first, so it was successfully done. This needs no controversy. I would simply remind these claimants that to raiso a cotton plant, and to produce cotton, aro two difforent things. A man may plant and raiso an orchard, but ho raises or produces no applos until they begin to bear. So with cotton, you do not by raising the plant simply produce the article.

You can not have raised cotton until you are ablo to pick the lint it produces. This the writers in question seem not to have accomplished. Hence they have failed to grow tho first cotton in this county. I. C.

He telegraphs the Grand Keeper of Records and Seal to that effect. Next week will begin the nomination and election of officers in the various subordinate lodges throughout the State. It Is time that the members of each lodge commence to consider who will best serve them in an official capacity, that regrettable mistakes may be avoided. As a rule, when lodges have been mistaken in the election of their officers, it is because they failed to give consideration as to who would serve the best interests of the lodge. Especially should this be done In the election of a Chan cellor Commander, who will be finally eligible to Grand Lodge representation.

The order has now grown to that magnitude when its Grand Lodge members must be composed of the brightest and ablest men in tho ranks of each lodge, in order to insure desirable recognition for their districts. Scarcely second to the C. C. in importance are also the K. of R.

and S. and M. of F. In fact, for the best regulation and prosperity of the lodge, these officers are paramount in importance to any that should be selected with great care and with singular reference to their special fitness for tho duties of their office. A faithful K.

of R. and S. or M. of F. should never be changed.

But, as I say, the chief cause is tho very, very numerous presence of degraded and degrading Chinamen. sFor California to have as good times as it has speaks volumes in its favor. It is a land flowing with milk and honey as literally as any spot on earth. There iB a tremendous emigration here, and genuine Califor-nians are not wise if they can not see tho drawback to the State in allowing foreign usurpation of the rights of our poor people. Can men who employ Chinese make more money by employing them? Not in the long run.

Js it more improving socially? Is the state of civilization improved as it might be by having intelligent Americans in their stead? In short, if the Chiaamen chooses to monopolize in all the labors of the toiling class, must we shut our mouths and let them? If there should be an armed invasion of the State we can send our fathers, sons and brothers to protect the pig-tails. They dug the gold of this fair State, and did not furnish, anything in re turn but that disgrace to San Fran cisco and the State "Chinatown." Tho "Flowery Kingdom" is the "home sweet home" of the Chinese. We taught them how to cook and wash, and many other useful things. People tried to educate them to the highest principles by which we pretend to be governed. Now, wo are not required to yield to them when we know they are as much heathen as ever.

I don's see any Christianity or patriotisnvin allowing their presence. The patriots of California are not sitting in editorial chairs trying to hoodwink the masses into subjection to oppressive corporations, whether foreign or domestic. fl hopo tho people will be governed by their own common sense and honor. Let the Chinaman have his native land, let us have ours, and let us guard it well. American.

Pescadero Items. From the Times-Gazette. A. Weeks has gone to the city to spend Thanksgiving with his friends. The bowling saloon has recently changod hands and is now under a new manager.

Mrs. E. F. Steele, who has been dangerously ill for tho past two weeks, is slowly recovering. The hills are beginning to show the effects of the recent rains, and a few warm sunshiny days will cover them with a coat of green.

2Cth, for the. benefit of the association. The storm of Monday night of last week was the most severe of any that has been experienced on this coast for years. In addition to the heavy rain a strong wind prevailod, doing much damage The chute at Pigeon Point was blown down and will be nearly a total loss. Tho chute was built some fifteen years ago at an expense of about $15,000.

It is now the property of Mrs. Caroline Clark and under lease to Messrs. Hamilton and Mc-Cormiokf who wero making some necessary repairs at the time of the disaster. It will probably be rebuilt the coming year, as it is the only practicable shipping point for several miles along this section of coast. It will not interfere with the shipping of dairy produce or freight from San Francisco, as that is always shipped and landed by a surf -boat.

Gordon's chute was also destroyed, only a fow timbers being left to mark tho spot where it once stood. This structure was built at a cost of about $30,000 and will probably not be rebuilt. Among minor disasters we note the decapitation of the Swantou House windmill, a shed turned inside out for Charles Smith, and several square yards of shingles from tho roof of Fred Roster's blacksmith shop are missing. Supervisor Moore's lrage barn was considerably damaged, fences blown down, telegraph poles scattered promiscuously, etc Taking all things into consideration it was the most destructive storm ever known here. Near Maiden, Idaho, one day last week, a German named Schultz was rushing about a circular saw, and by a careless move his right arm was out off by the machine, It was done so quickly that the man felt no pain at first, and did not know he waa injured until he saw the severed member on the floor..
