RECEIVING THE PRESIDENT.
Thus far the details for receiving the
f* President to-morrow have well pro
gressed, and the arrangements been made
with good judgment. I3ut unless it lms
/ been privately arranged, since no public
X announcement of it is made, there is
* likely* to be a grave omission. That is,
thore appears to be no allotted time to
drivQ tho party through the residence
. section. The San Jose Committee made
f that a feature of their reception.
•> We. protest that the people of Sacra
», jnento want these visitors to go away
; with a different idea of the city than
they can possibly gain by a drive up J
street to Seventh, to M, and thence to the
Capitol. Let us see. Tho President is a
prompt man. All along his route he has
been "on hand" to the minute. When
he has said "Move at 8 o'clock," he was
ready at 7:55, and moved at 8, not live
minutes after. If it takes half an hour to
reach the Capitol, which it should not, and
threo-quarters of an hour are consumed
by the review there ought to be half an
houa: given to a drive, say, up N street, to
I Eighteenth, to H, and in the section
down to Tenth, and thenco back to the
If tho wishes of the people could be ex
pressed by vote, nino out of ten would
say that they prefer to have President
Harrison and his party see Sacramento's
beautiful homes to having him remain at'
tho Capitol tho whole time ho is here.
The residence section of our city is what
we have reason to be proud of; it is due
to our guest to show him the best; if his
wish is consulted, ho will begreatly more
pleased to look upon the homes of Sacra
mento than to pose before tho multitude
the whole two hours he is hero.
Wo might just as well recognize the
truth, of which every touri>t tells us who
comes here, and which all those who
write of us put into their books: "The
resMf ace section of Sacramento Is lovely ;
a delight to eye and judgment and taste;
the business section is a .sad contrast, dis
appointing, and gives visitors a most un
fcvorable impression of the city and tho
people."
THE REVOLT OF THE GRENADIER
GUARDS.
Tho New York ii ' me thinks it ought
not to occasion surprise that for the sec
ond tim<> a revolt has occurred in the
Third Itattalion of the <Jrenadier Guards
in London, when it is recalled that the
guardsman of that class below the rank
of a commissioned officer occupies a serv
ile position, and that his uniform is a
badge Of menial servitude. But, assum
ing the Tribune's premises to be correct,
that to us seems the very best of reasons
for surprise. .Rebels do not spring from
the slums, as a rule. It requires men of
Borne mottle and individuality to revolt.
But is not the Tribunt mistaken as to the
Grenadier Guards? They constitute the
flower of the army, as we understand it;
are picked men in stature and cha-.-a-■!••.-,
and are not recruited from the slums.
There are, however, English soldiers
who are of a class to which our contem
porary's remarks will apply.
Tho solditr of the grade referred to,
and of which there are many regiments
in the English army, cannot, as the i
iya, ride ta ■ ant-dan railway car
riage; he is kept out of the boxes tad
tra, parquet and general sittings of
tttttheatem and relegated to the loftiest
galleries. He \a forbidden lirst-elass res
taurants and liotiis and reading rooms.
Inahoxtthe rod coat without epaulettes
in England in some regiments is
well nijrh a badge of disgrace, and when
ever the soldier can lay aside his uniform
uiivl pose :i few hours in civilian garb ho
considers it a groat event and the attain
ment of a lofty desire. ()no reason for
this is that the privates are recruited from
the lowest social levels in such commands,
and consequently the offleen and the
people despise them, trcatinj: them much
as we do the ex-convict and the output of
tho Barbary Coasts of our cities.
There is nothing dono after the man
enters the corps to lift him up and eu
eourajje his manliness, or inspire self-ro
spect and laudablo ambition. It is not to
be wondered at that officers drill such
r.ion with severity and treat thrm very
much as they would ragmuffins. To rise
from the ranks is out of the question, so
that the officer has no fear that he will
ever be called upon to recognize the pri
vate as a social equal. The private knows
that his chance of bettering his condition
lies only outsido of the service and hence
he fears, but does not respect his officer.
These conditions more strictly apply to
the Brigade of Guards and the Riflemen.
The Highlanders, Queen's Guards, etc.,
are to be wholly excluded from the criti
cism, while most of tho Irish troops are
independent and command a degree of
respect.
Compared with the French and Ameri
can soldiers, and especially with the
German, the British soldier classes re
ferred to are in disgrace. That any group
of them should drum up sufficient
spirit to protest against cruel drill and
too severe discipline would lie really
surprising. Not less astonishing, how
ever, is tho policy of England regarding
her enlistments. So careful in the selec
tion of blue jackets, it is unexplainable
why she should fill any of her red coat
uniforms from the dregs of society and
the back streets of the great cities.
DEATH OF PROFESSOR LE CONTE.
By the death of Professor John LoConte,
of the Faculty of the SUto University, that
Institution has lost one of its oldest
friends and brightest lights, and educa
tion and science have been deprived of a
foremost man and a muster mind. He
had reached an advanced age, it is true,
but so clear were his mental faculties, so
vigorous his intellectual powers, that it
had been believed he was good for a de
cade more of service to the causo of
higher education.
He came from a line of French Hugue
nots on his father's side, and from Puri
tans on his mother's. His father was a
scientist before him, and attained some
eminence as a naturalist. Professor Le
Conte was graduated from the University
of Georgia with high honors in 1838. lie
then took up the study of medicine, and
won his degree in 1841 from the College of
Physicians and Surgeons, New York. He
began practice in Savannah, bat iv IS4O
accepted the chair of Natural Philosophy
in Franklin College. This position he
held up to 1855, when he accepted the po
sition of lecturer on chemistry in the
College of Physicians and Surgeons of
New York, his medical alma mater. In
a year thereafter he was called to the
higher chair of Natural and Mechanical
Philosophy at Columbia, S. C, and that
position he occupied for ten years, when
he was advanced to the chair of Natural
and Mechanical Philosophy and Astron
omy.
In 18o!> he came to the University of
California to fill the chair of Physios ami
Industrial Mechanics. He was then with
the university in its infancy, and one of
its organizers, and he lived to see it grow
to its present splendid proportions, which
to him must have been a source of inii
nite pride. He was the lirst President of
the University after a Board of Regents
was created, and the State assumed con
trol. He held the olrice- but a year, not
accepting it asm permanency. Six years
later he again consented to serve as act
ing President lor a time, and in 167G he
was elected full President, but resigned
.soon after, prefeting his position as one
of the teaching Faculty.
lie was a many-sided man, and his con
tributions to literature, science and to
human knowledge generally, together
with his splendid service of twenty-one
years and more in the university, consti
tute an imperishable monument to hts
genius, and his devotion to the cause of
education.
The Kighteenth National Conference
of Charities and Correction is to be held
. at Indianapolis the second week in May.
It is very much to be regretted that Cali
fornia cannot !>e officially represented at
that important gathering. The late Leg
islature declined t,> create a charities and
correction board for this State, though
marly all the other States employ such
an agency as an economic means. If we
bad at the Indianapolis conference an
official representative, he would return
well informed concerning the operations
of similar boards, and be prepared to ad
vise this State to its gain. The bill that
died on the calendar of our Legislature
- a very modest one. It did not go
one-half as deep into the "business" of
charity-dispensation inquisition as is
authorized in most of the States. The
chief opposition to the measure came
from the church. It does not wish to
submit the methods of institutional econ
omy under it to official inspection, nor to
have the charities it supervises, and for
whi«-h the State foots about half the bill
lor maintenance, inquired into. That very
fact ought to have prompted the Legisla
ture to pass thy bill, it being evidence
that such a board as was proposed is
led. Outside of Inquiry and report,
however, the board would have been ac
tive in ascertaining ju.st what crime costs
the State, \\ here the leakage is, if any, in
disposition of charity funds supplied by
the State; whether we are giving too
much or too little, and whether the dis
tribution of aid is fair between the char
ity instutions. Wo should have some
thing practical from such a board con
cerning prison labor, outdoor relief and
its relation to political corruption, the
creation and heredity of pauperism; the
child problem in cities; tho custodial
cure of adult idiots; penal and reforma
tory institutions, etc. But a good deal
can be done in the direction of educating
lie sentiment for a second attempt to
establish a State board if the press will
publish the better debates and papers be
foro the National Conference. Two of
the hading papers of Indianapolis are to
print the reports made, papers read, and
tho debates had, very nearly in full, and
extracts from these upon the economical
questions to bo considered will go far
towards properly molding public thought
in California, so that the next Legislature
will be likely to pass the desired bill in
response to public demand.
Thk dispatches say Mr. Blair has boon
called to Washington because China re-
SACRAMENTO DAILY RECORP-UyiQy, FRti)AY, MAY 1, 1891.—SIX PAGES.
fuses to receive him as Minister from the
United States. China has the right to bo
refuse, and it is not deemed offensive ac
tion where the reasons are personal. But
it is said the objections to Mr. Blair are
his pronounced friendliness to the Chi
nese exclusion policy. If so, then no
man in harmony with the Administra
tion can be named to whom China might
not with as good reason object. The
truth is, in the Senate Mr. Blair pro
tested against the Scott bill because time
sufficient had not been given in which to
hear from the Chinese Government con
cerning the then pending treaty. He was
indeed championing the right and ought
to have kindly consideration from China
for the courage he displayed in favor of
fair play.
Lkt the people turn out to-morrow by
the ten thousands and welcome the Pres
ident. Welcome him as a worthy man in
whom the people have reposed implicit
confidence, but more heartily and joy
ously because he represents a principle.
As tho custodian of an office than which
there is none loftier, he is the representa
tive of the triumph of republican institu
tions ; of the capacity of the people for
self-government. He comes as the repre
sentative of the progressive spirit of the
age, in which individuality is given full
est opportunity and honorable ambition
and worthy aspiration have a free field,
regardless of birth, the accident of for
tune or tho volume of wealth. The Pres
ident is not the President of party but of
the whole people, the Chief Magistrate
over sixt3 r-three million free men, wo
men and children; the head of an indisso
luble union of Sovereign .States. As such
he should be hailed joyously in the Capi
tal City of California, with a heartiness
that will never be lost to memory and
that will testify to the sincerity of our
love for the institutions that make such
an office as he fills, possible.
Tiik New York papers speak of citi
zens of Chicago as Chicagoese. This is
nauseating. It would be on a par with
Sacramentoese or San Prandscoeae.
