TRANSPARENT CONCERN.
—^— — —^^—
Irately the San Francisco Chronicle has
bi«n making ostentatious manifestations of
its opjioMtion to the Southern Pacific Com
pany. Hueh manifestations in the Chronicle
u.-ually precede some act of subserviency.
The Ctironicle is evidently preparing the
way for doing jiLst what the corporation may
desire in some instance, or of doing the
railroad company some signal service, and
jet maintaining a reputation for stalwart
independence. The most recent complaint
of the Chronicle against the railroad com
pany in, in effect, that it has refused to
give persons desiring to attend the Na
tional Republican Convention at Chicago
in June emigrant rates of transportation.
It says that the railroad company charges
twt-ntv dollars more for excursion rates
from Han Francisco to Chicago and return
than it charges from Chicago to San Fran
cisco and return. It further says that the
delegates to the Convention will go, be
cause they promised to, but it will greatly
restrict and limit the numlier of persons
who might have gone had greater eonees
gions in the rate of transportation lieen
given. It afibrds us great pleasure to see
that the delegates are so self-sacrificing
that they are willing to .stand twenty dol
lars more than the emigrant rate to Chi
cago and return, because of the promise
they have made to a Convention that they
will attend the national gathering. We,
however, venture the opinion that there is
not one single delegate elected to either
the Republican or Democratic National
('.inventions who will not expect free
transportation at the hands of the rail
road company, and we further suggest that
twenty dollars difference between the rate
from Chicago to San Francisco and the
rate from San Francisco and return, is nnt
a very large sum when the general ex
penses of a delegate to a National Conven
tion are to be brought into comparison
with it. The Chronicle, however, de
nounces as a narrow-minded, short-sighted,
selti-h [Kilicy the action of the Southern
Pacific Company in charging twenty dol
lars more for a round trip from San Fran
cisco to Chicago than the rate given in the
interest of immigration from Chicago to
S in Francisco.
The proprietor of the Chronicle was an
importunate candidate for delegate to the
National Convention, and while in view of
that fact the present doleful wail of the
paper concerning the cost of transporta
tion is certainly not in good taste, it will
nevertheless answer :us a precautionary
profession which will teud to keep the
paper solid with whatever remnant of
anti-monopoly sentiment may remain in
thiti country.
A NOTABLE CONVENTION.
A Convention is called to assemble in
Washington to be i-om posed wholly of law
vors, the purpose of which is to devise
means for securing uniformity of laws in
the United States relating to marriage and
divorce.
There is no subject connected witli the
laws of the domestic relations that is no
n.iught with interest to the investigator
■or of importance to American society. The
independency of the States it knot pro
posed to disturb in the- matter of making
law* concerning marriage and divorce •
it is not even proposed to ask for an
amendment to the Federal Constitution in
order to invest Congress with greater pow
ers; it is proposed only to devise means to
bOi-ur* uniformity, through consultation,
and by the force of reason to bring Un
people of the several States into agree
ment upon what shall constitute catue for
divorce, and what shall be deemed proper
celebration and evidence of marriage.
Of coarse this will be a serious task, one
that p.ui-t enlist a great amount of energy,
philamhrophy and untiring patience, but '
it vui Ih' accomplished, and there U bo
class of men who can so well do it as law
yers. Fortunately they have the sympathy
and active aid of the clergy, the leading
essayists, the liest thinkersof the day, the
great sociologists and the majority of the
foremost thinkers and workers for woman's
welfare.
It is undeniable that uuder our present
diverse systems we arc legalising polygamy i
that we are destroying resect for the
Sanctity •>( marriage; that we are fo.--ter
ing crime and immorality, and hardening
the sensibilities of youth concerning the
■ili -unt -fulness and wieketlnajvs of violation
of marital vows. We have the authority
of President Wookoy for the fact that our
ratio of divorces to saarriagei or to popu
lation exceeds that of any country in the
riviliz-.-d world. This is by no means tea-
Imiuiij in Whalf of the freedom of our
institutions and the liberties the people
enjoy — it is rather evidence of n moral
retrogressive drift that ought to alarm so
ciety.
When it is possible for the chizena of ;■.
common eoantry to !<e gnflty of bigamy in
OS ■ State and innocent of it under the
■same act in another; when it is passible
for a man and woman to be recognized as
hnsbaad and wife in one State and as
adulterers becaure of '!'eir r.-!;:tion in an
other ; when it is possible by n:.:>- n
moval across a Boppositioas line to legally
put away a wife, who in the jurisdiction of
her own territory v regarded still as a
wife; when it is possible Tor the bonds be

decree beine made known to one of the
parties, thoßgh that knowledge might be

are possible and actually o.vnr in tae
Uniteii Sutes il Is time for such reforms
tkm of the State laws as will correct tke

j and will establish immediate commercial
relations between the richest of the north
! era coast counties and Sacramento. It
will enable the trade interests of Sacra
mento to compete for business in Sonoma
with the metroi>olis. As a natural result,
it will bring the people of the two sections
into Wtter acquaintance. Heretofore the
only convenient means of reaching the
I Redwood region and the rich sections of
the Sonoma, Santa Rosa and Ru*ian
river vaheys, h«s been by the roundabout
way of trans;>ortation through San Fran
cisco, compelling travelers to make a de
tour far to the south, and to twite crow
San Francisco bay, consuming from eight
to ten hours of time. With the opening
of the Santa Rosa and C.irquinez road this
time will l>e reduced to about four or five
hours, and the trip can be made without
change of cars or involving any travel by
water. The products of the Sonoma section
will reach Sacramento without being twice
handled, and our product-; will go to the
coast county as directly as it is possible to
ship them anywhere. These facts suggest
the great importance of the road to this
region, without further comment. It is
stated by the news dispatches that when
the road is completed it is intended to have
a grand celebration at Santa Rosa, and
that an excursion train will be run from
this city. The opportunity to cultivate
the acquaintance of the Sonoma people
and cknet commercial relations with them,
will certainly be improved by our business
men. There should go from Sacramento a
sufficiently large and representative dele
gation to do this city credit, and to com
port with the imi>ortanee of the occasion.
Every new rail connection with Sacra
mento augments the commercial advant
ages of this city, and more firmly fixes
interests of every character, thus appreci
ating the importance of this city as a trade
center, and bringing nearer the period of
its full development.
Ax Eastern contemporary says:
Christian science and mind-enre have been
under the observation of the people for over
three years. By their works these cults have
bcome known, and those works are not giving
satisfaction. Thonis lire not yielding grapes,
no- are thistles bending with flgK. In dampand
col<l weather attacks of pueumonia need must
ard and llaxseed applications, quinine, iron,
ipecac nud till the trail aids on which poor
humanity must lean Prayer and thought must
OOaae after practical effort to fave life. Ihe
mind-core and laithcure have sat Inanely by
the bed of the dying, making no sign.
This is almost coarse language, but it
holds truth in its grasp, as men now see.
The fre«lom of thought that gives these
new doctrines privilege has not yet evolved
in practice such results as justify any one
in leaning upon them. There is no dispo
sition to assail the motives of the preachers
of the new dogma of healing ; we may
well admit them to be sincere, but tliey
must submit to be judged by the practical
result* of their work, and thus far not only
have they failed to make any deep im
pression upon the public mind, but they
have not been able to demonstrate that
theirs L> a progressive science or that it
promises for the future the development
that distinguishes all discovery of merit.
The influence of the mind upon the body,
of trust in the healer, of determination to
conquer ills ; these are known and potent
factors, but that the new "sciences" of
healing referred to have done more than
lias been accomplished by will, by resolu
tion to conquer disease and by ambition
to live, has not been, after some years of
trial, demonstrated or even established as
reasonable theories.

least, and probably will be much larger.
Colonel Irish, in his speech here on Satur

present protective system playing cards
were allowed to go untouched, while bibles
were taxed 25 per cent. This nice little
subterfuge had weight with a few persons
in LeGrande, and promised to make some
Democratic votes ; but the effect was com
pletely counteracted by Swift who set forth
the matter in its true light. He gained
many votes by his logic and earnestness.

MOUNTAIN MAID.
i Heroine of a Queer Romance and Heir
ess to 815,000.
One of the Boston Sunday papers print*
a very romantic story of the discovery in
i the Tennessee mountains of the outcast
daughter and heiressof a Nantucket physi
i cian. It appears that Dr. Augustas Frank
lin, who had lived on the island since
' 1862, and was, perhaps, the leading
i physician in all Nantucket, left the
: place and was gone about sixteen
: months. When he returned he inserted a !
' card in the local paper, announcing that '
he would resume his practice on a certain :
• date. At the end of this notice was the I
announcement that mystitied the people of
Nantucket. He changed his name. The
physician whom the whole town had for
years known as Dr. Franklin stated that
hereafter he wished to be known as Frank
lin Augustus Ellis.
Great was the wonderment, many were
the surmises and not a few were the stories
told, _ but no one knew the truth. The
physician's lips were sealed, and when,
yeai-3 afterward, death came, the doctor
and the secret were buried together. His
popularity in Nantucket, both before and
after his change of name, was great. His
success as a physician was extraordinary,
and his participation in all the public in
terests of thf town was marked. The
opium habit, however, crept upon him,
and by 1883 he was a slave to the drug.
In March of that year he left the island
alone and came to Jiostou. In May, 1.384,
he died at Monson, leaving a will be
queathing some $15,000 to his three sisters.
Now comes the strange portion of the
story. George H. Newton, of Monson, the
attorney who settled the estate in behalf
of the heirs, made a trip to California the
following year. At Santa Ana he became
acquainted with Ephraim H. Cleveland, a
former resident of Massachusetts, who it
turned out, wa« an acquaintance of the
late Dr. Ellis. Mr. Newton was much sur
prised to learn from Mr. Cleveland that
Dr. Ellis had been married in 1800. Mr.
Cleveland said that in company with the
doctor, he was in Saylesville in 1859 where
the doctor taught school and practiced
dentistry, while the former taught pen
manship. In the fall of 1860, Ellis, Mr.
Cleveland said, married Martha I'aty of
Saylesville. About a week later he "rob
bed her of fG,OOO and disappeared.
I pon learning these facts Mr. Newton
began a systematic search for the widow
and child, if any, for he had been in
formed by Mr. Cleveland that a child had
been liorn to Martha and Dr. Ellis a few
months succeeding the hitter's departure
to regions unknown. Mr. Cleveland hav
ing known the father of the child so well
became at once greatly interested in the
case. The widow and child were traced to
Moro, 111., and it was learned that they
had gone thence to some place in Tennes
see. E. Hall, of Collinsville, Ala., was also
interested in the case, and to him came
the information in January hist that a girl
named Sarah Anne Ellis wxs living in one
of the so-called " Moonriiinuag " districts
of Tennessee.
Mr. Hall proceeded to the locality at
once, and after riding on horseback "for a
long time, for the roads were impassable
for vehicles, he at hist came to an old log
boon where he found the girl in ques
tion. She was scantily clad and surround
ed by meager household furnishings. Her
appearance indicated that she had been
subject to all kinds of drudgery that one
could impobe, and investigation proved
that she had practically been the slave of
an old and eccentric moonshiner, although
her character was above suspicion. She is
of medium height and fair complexion,
while her mountain life has given her a
particularly robust appearance. Her hair
is of a shade of brown, and her grayish
eyes resemble those of her late father, al
though otherwise her features arc similar
to th<»-e of her deceased mother.
Shi- told Mr. Ball ihat her mother had
been dead about eleven years, but that her
maiden n»me was. Martha Paty. She re
niembern distinctly bearing her mother
relating many thingsconeerninghei father,
whmn she never saw, Imt whose name her
mother told her was Franklin Aogostua
Ellis, and that he had been a dentist and a
teacher before their marriage. Her
mothei also told her thai shortly before
her liirth her father deserted her.
The is now in CoUtnsrille, at the
house of her mother's cousin, Mrs. Eliza
A. Adams, who, though she had not seen
the child for many years, at once recog
nized her by the features that so much re
sembled those of her mother. A perfect
chain of evidence has been found for the
future in support of her claim, Whether
the matter will be adjusted in the Courts
or by a compromise with the three sisters,
who now enjoy the possession of their dead
brother's wealth, remains to be deter

Advice to Mothers Mra. Wlna'.ow'g
B<HiTHING SYRUP should always be used when
children are cutting teeth. It relieves the little
sufferer at once; it produces natural, nniet sleep
by relieving the child from pain, and the little
cherub awakes as -'bright as a button." It is
very pleasant to taste. It foothes the child,
sefteus the gums, allays all pain, relieves vrind
regulates the bowels, and is the best-known
remedy for diarrhea, whether arising from
teething or other causes. Twenty-five cenu a
