LAKE AND THE BREWERS.
The San Francisco Brewers' Protective
Association and the San Francisco Hop
Dealers' Association have issued a circu
lar boycotting Lake county hops because
that county has passed a malt and spirit
uous liquor saloon prohibition ordinance.
Setter county is equally as guilty, but it
is not mentioned in the circular.
The boycott is a bad resort for any busi
ness association. Whatever may be said
for or against the wisdom of the Lake or
dinance cuts no figure in the case, be
cause it is not essential to the conduct of
their business that the San Francisco
brewers should buy their hops of Lake
county growers. If the whole of Lake
county should sink into the bowels of the
earth, the brewers of San Francisco
would procure ail the hops they need
just the same.
The issuance of the boycott circular is
therefore ill-advised; clearly it reveals
its animus, to wit, that the desire of the
San Francisco brewers is to compel Lake
County to open its doors to saloons and
therefore to San Francisco beer, and the
brewers' corporation of San Francisco
holds itself in duty bound to stand with
the liquor dealers in all fighting against
prohibition or regulation .looking to re-
Btriction and limitation of the saloon
business.
Of course that is their undeniable right,
but it will be found that the boycott is an
indefensible piece of weaponry. The
people's right to legislate in their domes
tic and police affairs as they see fit is a
natural one and has the additional guar
antee of constitutional expression. Any
assault upon that right, therefore, outside
of the domain of moral suasion, is certain
to react upon its projectors. If the
brewers of San Francisco had simply re
fused to buy Lake hops, no one would
have questioned their right to do so; it is
a matter over which they alone have any
jurisdiction. But they went beyond that
retaliatory step and sought, through the
agency of all the State press, to make
their cause a public one. There can be
but one purpose in such action, and that is
to cultivate antagonism against Lake
along with the stimulation of prejudice
or objection to regulative and restrictive
liquor saloon laws.
Since we have noted the almost com
plete failure of all prohibition laws, we
have very nearly reached the judgment
upon which many have already planted
themselves, that all laws looking toward
prohibition ought to be abolished in the
interest of sobriety. But we cannot see
how any consideration of this character
can enter into any excuse by the San
Francisco brewers for their attempt to
make their quarrel with Lake County a
matter of public concern. Lake has the
right to make her restrictive ordinances
forbidding places to be opened for sale of
liquor at retail, and equally the brewers
of San Francisco have the right to cease
buying Lake hops. But the appeal to the
press to stimulate a sentiment of antago
nism against Lake is unworthy and
mean.
«.
The Grass Galley Tidings recites that a
man of means came to that town recently
to look for opportunity for investment of
much money and the erection of a home.
He left the place simply because tho
streets and the roads adjacent to the city
are in such a bad condition that he could
cot reconcile himself to dragging through
the mud one-third of the year. His idea,
as expressed to the Tidings, was that if
the people of the section had not confi
dence enough in its capacity to support a
large population worthy of good road
ways, it was not a safe place for him to
invest his money in property and industry
and that it would not attract a large popu
lation. .Such is the story told by the 'Tid
ings. It points a moral that calls for no
long comment. Grass Valley is a thriving
town; has an energetic press; has about
it a fine productive country, good mining
proportion, and every promise of perma
nence and thrift. But it haa not risen out

ways, and these by Eastern people are
taken as an index to a supposed condi
tion of poverty and unproductiveness.
Miss Ida C. Cradoock of Philadelphia,
! who defended the danse dv ventre last
i summer, as being purely a religious ex
ercise, lectured before the Manhattan Lib
; eral Club of New York the other night, on
i "Survivals of Sex Worship in Cbristian-
I ity and Paganism: What Christianity
I Kas Done for the Marital Relation."
| There was a large audience and in it
I were thirty women. W Te would wager a
i cracker that most if not all of them were
j short-haired, for they heard the lecture
| through, which the New York World
! declares is "unprintable." It included
! blackboard drawings, and also a pam
| phlet on the dance referred to, which the
i lecturer could not find a printer in New
i York to put into type, and that is saying
a great deal for New York printers. At
the conclusion of the lecture President
Foote of the club called for discussion of
the paper, whereupon Mrs. Emma Beck
with, she who once ran for Mayor of New
York, arose excited, angry, flushed to
the temples, and marching to the front
moved to adjourn at onca, as the paper
should never have been read, and should
not be debated. Then followed a lively
time of tongue-lashing, ending with a
j resolution to hear the debate. But not a
j woman left the hall, much less a man.
| Even Mrs. Beckwith sat through it all,
and Miss Craddock got in a hot shot at
the conclusion by congratulating her on
her ability to remain. And these are the
kind of people, in part, who would up
turn society, "reform" all existing condi
tions and set up of their own fashioning
a state they pronounce ideal. These
rabid reformers, who make liberalism
the vehicle for indecency and the propa
gation of ideas that in practice would
give us license for law, and unre
straint for order, are a useful lot, how
ever. By contrast they serve to show
how strong is reason, and that the tradi
tions, laws and customs under which the
social state has become what it is, are by
no means so defective or vicious as thes9
fanatics would have the world believe.
As evidence of the tender regard had
for our historic old battleships, see the
law regarding naval repairs. It specifies
that no repairs shall be made to wooden
vessels if the cost is to exceed 10 per cent,
of the cost of a new ship of the same size,
but "nothing contained herein shall de
prive the Secretary of the Navy of au
thority to cause the necessary repair and
preservation of the United States ships
Hartford and Kearsarge." So it was
sentiment that kept the Kearsarge afloat,
not her serviceable quality. The Chair
man of the House Committee on Naval
Affairs, on being questioned on this point,
admitted it and added: "The public
would not listen to these old ships being
condemned and broken up. They were
kept on duty, just as Great Britain keeps
Nelson's old ship, the Victory." Of course
it is paying dearly for sentiment, but
after all was it not money well spent if it
conserved and respected the patriotic
pride of the people ?

The article in the Record-Union of
Tuesday on military instruction! n school,
for disciplinary and exercise purposes,
has awakened local discussion, nearly all
favorable to the idea, and it is now seri
ously contemplated to bring the subject
before the City Board of Education for
its consideration. The belief is enter
tained that without cost for the first year,
and without any interruption of the sys
tem of instruction, a partial drill may
be introduced by the voluntary action of
public school children, with great benefit.

If there is truth in the story of prepa
rations for a revolt in Servia with the in
volvement of Bulgaria and Roumania, it
can safely be put down as fact that Russia
is the secret spring that is operating to
these ends. She has all to gain, nothing
to lose, by troubles in the lesser Eastern
States. Externally Russia is just now
eminently peaceful, but that counts for
nothing in her secret policy.
More Kalny Weather.
The Weather Bureau reports show the
highest and lowest temperatures yester
day to have been 50° and 41°, with brisk
southerly winds and cloudy weather pre
vailing, with rain at intervals.
The barometrical readings at 5 a.m. and
5 p. m. were 30.17 and 29.89 inches respect
ively, a fall of .28 of an inch in twelve
hours, which indicates either rain and
wind or wind without rain.
The highest and lowest temperatures
one year ago yesterday were 52° and 3ti v,
and one year ago to-day 54 = and 41°, with
no rain.
The rainfall yesterday was .12 of an

as against 19.34 inches to an equal date
last year.
