Sued for Libel.

been most unscrupulous in the busi
ness of maligning and traducing Dr.
Fitzgerald. It has hesitated at
nothing that it thought would assist
in the task of blackening the charac

In the State. Its slanders have reach
ed a culminating point as will be seen
by the following dispatch received at
the Herald office late last evening:
San Francisco Oct. I9lh, 1875.
Editor Herald:—Dr. Fitzgerald has prose
cuted the CAroni'ctecrlminally for libel to-day.
J. C. StATVAJtD,
Very American.
Some of our coteraporaries evince a
disposition to ridicule the Sheridan
banquet which took place in San Fran
cisco a few evenings since. We do
not concur. There wa9 nothing un-
American in the assemblage, Its
speeches, toasts or songs. ludeed as
we read the speeches and sentiments
uttered on that occasion we are im
pressed with the idea that the whole
affair from inception to farewell was
very American like. No people in
the world bow loweror reverence more
reverentially titled greatness than we
Republican Americans. We vener
ate title, civil or military, native or
foreign. All we want is to see the
man on whom fortune has showered
her favors aud our hats are off and
there Is dust on the knees of our pants
Sheridan is somebody; he wore epu
lets; he is one of the gods we worship.
We are prone to this sort of adoration.
We go into it with a zeal and zest only
equalled by our admiration of the
man who possesses millions of dollars.
Title and wealth are two things which
the average American will allow no
one to bow more obseqiously before
than himself. We have no fault to
find with the Tom Fitches and the
Uriah Heaps who attended the
Sheridan banquet. They were fol
lowing out the American instinct,
glorifying themselves and doing hon
or to a distinguished General—a Lieu
tenant General of the L'nited States
army. Let us have no more hyper
critical carping and harping. Sher
idan likes fawning and he lives in a
country whose people like to fawn on
him or any one who wears a title.
The Sheridan banquet was all right
just tbe thing to those who had the
honor of being present and those who
were not need not Hatter themselves
that they can ridicule or sneer this
sort of thing out of fashion.
The Modern Turf.
We are pleased to witness the dis
position on the part of the millionaires
of California to iuvest in line horses.
We say this because progress of mod
ern civilization has been measured by
the speed of the horse; and the num
ber of fine studs in a country is in
proportion to its enlightenment and
refinement. The growth of the mod
em turf system, however, is so sug
gestive of the prominent evils of our
civilization that we connot avoid con
trasting the race course of the (Jreek
with that of the Anglo Saxon. The
sports of the ancients had an ulterior
object, and were designed to improve
the man rather than the beast. The
proudest men of Athens won their
choicest laurels at the Olympic games,
won them by skill and endurance.
Soldiers that had led vast armies to
victory, and statesmen tout hold iv
their grasp the destinies of Emporer
handled the rains, as their swift cour
sers plunged past the goal. Tho poet
and the historian read their works to
the multitude while the heroes were
resting from their toils. The chief
glory of the modern sport is the shal
low honor of owning a swift footed
nag, or the artful trickery of the jock
ey who directs the animal. The mul
itude assemble on the course , and
the preponderating element which
gives tone sand feeling to the
whole is one which society re
gards with Indifference. The gam
bler, the trickster, and shyster come
forward with their pools, their race
track jargon, and their jockey tricks.
The owner of the fine animal that
come 9 forth bestrode by a trainer or
jockey belonging to the lower classes
of society, views the contest with in
difference or as decisive of several
bets. The jingle of coin drowns every
other sound. Nothing shows on the
present race track but the power of
money. The only exhibition of skill
or endurance is on the part of the
hireling whom the intelligent obser
vers look upou with doubt. The jock
ey honors are worn in the baru yard,
the master's ownership of the win
ning horse is regarded only from a pe
cuniary standpoint, and about the on
ly genuine enthusiasm evoked from
the educated people who attend, is a
fleeting admiration for the noble ani
mal that bore away the purse. Of
course it may be a source of prido to
the modern Cb(esi*s to possess a line
animal, and he may be ranked above
the savage Arabian as he walks out
occasionally to view his stables; but
as an element of progress or a means
of improving either the morals, the
taste, or the manhood of the people,
he cannot claim pre-eminence.
Still we do not hope for California to
reform the human race on this point
aud will content ourselves with the
introduction of famous horses and the
maintanance of the race course as it
exists in richer and old countries.
Cotton Culture.
While it is not our desire to under
estimate the advantages of the soil
and climate of California, it is mani
fest that there is too much experi
menting in agriculture, and that fruit
less efforts are being made to intro
duce almost every product grown in
the civilized world. Many of the in
dustries now receiving attention will
have ultimately to be abandoned as
either unprofitable or less remunera
tive than other staples. Mauy of our
farmers will be deceived by temporary
high prices of certain articles, conse
quent upon scarcity, and forget the
rate that must ultimately be met
when production equals the demand,
or accessible surplus from other coun
tries Il brought in. The idea that ev
erything will pay enormously, and
that abnormal profits from simple
farm labor will be permanent, should
not be fostered. It is both impolitic
md unjust to raise tbe hopes of the
new settlers to the realms of romance.
There are two articles which we have
particularly in our mind at the pres
ent time, and to which the foregoing
remarks apply. These are cotton and
tobucco. The latter has been grown
in California to some extent, but the
industry is yet in only an experimen
tal state, and certainly cannot be
classed among the profitable branches
of farming in California. The weed
flourishes, but is of a very inferior
quality; so inferior, in fact, that it
would not class anything but "reject
ed" in any tobacco market in the
United States. No perfect process for
curing has yet been discovered, and
until this point is settled our people
should avoid tobacco planting except
on an experimental scale, and should
first test the adaptation of their par
ticular locality to this plant. As re
gards cotton we also notice a vast
deal of nonsense floating arouud
through the pres9. Editors and
lecturers get tangled in huge
bunches of statistics which they
have not the strength to handle.
Mr. J. \V. A. Wright lectured at the
State University at Oakland a few
days since on "Cotton Culture," aud
succeeded in collecting together a mass
of dazzling generalities that arc cal
culated to mislead the youths who
listened to his harangue. In the first
place he put the yield at an average of
two bales pier acre in this State (' one
to four bales") but a little further on
we discover this to be seed cotton,
which reduces the actual figures to
about 400 to 500 pounds of fibre, or the
same as all the bottom lands of the
Mississippi Valley produce. Irriga
tion is pronounced absolutely neces
sary. The costs of picking are stated
by Mr. Wright to be one aud one-half
cents per pound, and freight to San
Francisco eight to ten cents, the cost
of cultivation being estimated at five
to seven cents. The product of 1675
cost the farmer fifteen to seventeen
cents per pound laid down near the
Golden Gate. On this Mr. Wright
figured out a good profit, by assuming
a price of thirty cents per pound. By
reference to the San Francisco papers
Mr. Wriuht would have found that on
the day his address was delivered mid
dling New Orleans cotton was worth
in Liverpool only seven and a half
pence, or about fifteen cents per
pound. As the cost of transportation
to Liverpool, with Insurance and com
missions added, would certainly be
two cents per pound, the California
grower could only sell his cotton on
tho day of this address at a price two
to live cent 9 per pound below the ac
tual cost of production. This is fact
opposed to theory. It may be that
California will be able to occasionally
profit by cotton culture when abnor
mally high prices rule, but there is
certainly no money in it at auything
like the present value of the staple,
and it is not probable that there will
be a return to the standard of prices
which ruled just after the war. The
South now produces as much as before
the rebellion, and with her cheap labor
is likely to retain a monopoly of cot
ton culture.
INDUSTRIAL EDUCATION.
More Suggestions from Judge Lindley
—Samples or Advertising—A Subject
for genernl ronsideratlon.
Euitou Herald:—You were kind enough
to print an article from tiie Industrialist — the
paper or the Kansas Agricultural College—
nnd you having thus favored the Industrial
sidrt of the question, 1 propose to tax you tt
little further in the some direction, by print
ing in the body of this communication, some
advertisements, taken Irom the same paper.
They arc more emphatic.direct and practical
than any thing I could write. These adver
tisements speak, trumpet-tongued, to the
larmers and mechanics—lo all classes who
have sons and daughters growing up in Idle
ness, or who have graduated with a genteel
education, but without practical capacity to
cam a living. If we cannot find Professors
capable of carrying their theories to the field
and shop and teaching their applicatiou,thcn
do as Americans always do in an emergency
- grow them—truin them—make them—im
prove them.

Day District Races.
San Francisco, October 19th.—At
the track at the hour set for the open
ing of the races—2:3o P. M.—appear
ances indicated a spare attendance for
the first day. Less than three hun
dred were collected in front of ihe pool
seller's, and these were chiefly persons
peculiarly interested in the races. Two
hacks were noticed In the park, and
less than a score <*f ladies were on the
btlcony of the club house, the grand
stand being almost entirely deserted.
Pool selling commenced about an hour
before the calling of the horses, and
the chances were taken moderately
brisk, but at comparatively low fig
ures, the choice of favorite vacillating
between Chance and Bradley. In the
aggregate of the pools sold the invest
ments were even on each. The ave
rage range was Chance $50, Bradley
550, to the field $10. An occasional
double pool went off at $220, but most
of the pools were on the basis first
noted. The field, as will be seen by
the entries given, numbered eight
horses. Iv seme of the pools sold the
chances of one of these eight winning
the race was taken as low as §5 to $50
each on Chance and Bradley. These
two three-year-olds have already es
tablished a crack record, Bradley hav
ing won the race at the State fuir at
Sacramento, and Chance took the
three-year-old race on this track last
Spring and again at Sacramento.
When called to the track, buyers of
the field were slightly appalled by the
absence of less than six of the horses
which the racing cards called for in
the race for the Stanford plate, the
raft comprising only Chance, Bradley,
Newball and Sherman. This state of
nfluirs indicated an Indifference of the
knowing ones as to the chances of the
field in the pools. In the draw for po
sitions Sherman took the first place.
Chance the second, Newball third, and
Bradley outside. It was ten minutes
past three before the quartette were
oft' on the two-mile dash. Bradley
took a line lead at the start, Chance
second und Sherman third, all four
running about a length apart. At the
first mile on passing the score Bradley
led by half a length, Chance second,
the other two a length behind, neck
and neck. In the second round Brad
ley held his advantage and came in
ahead by live lengths, Chance second
and Sherman third.
Later—The Stanford plate was won
by Bradley, five lengths ahead, of
Chance. Time, 3:40}.

On- City, Pa., October 19th.—A flro
occurred at half past 2 o'clock this af

the North suburbs of the city, occupied
by a family named Ointy. The moth
er of the unfortunate family hail left
her three children alone while visit

to kindle the lire by using kerosene.
The oldest child, a hoy, applied the
fiendish llnid,which spontaneously ig
nited, setting lire, to his garments. He
at once ran from home, but before the
flames could be quenched he was so
badly burned that death will be
the probable result. The elder
sister, seven years old, luckily es
caped from the house uninjured,
hut the youngest child, a girl between
three and fourjrearsof age, was not so
fortunate. Unconscious of her agon
izing position, she fled to the closed
door. The flames immediately envel
oped the entire structure, leaving the
frightened children to the mercy of
the flames, when the entire building
was consumed. The body of the cre
mated child was removed, a shapeless
mass. The family are now without a

The loss on the property is small.
