In passing the riverand harbor bill over the president's veto, congress not only siveu the country from havipj; gteat in instioi done to its vast commerce, but it administered a well deserved rebuke to Mr. Cleveland. The veto message was more like an alter-praycr talk ol a coun try school teacher to a class of stupid boys than a state paper; besides con gress knows betttr than Mr. Cleveland what the country needs, and he pre sumes when he tells the direct represent atives of the people Hint he is the sole guradian of llieir constituents. Of the 2S0 ccrTrs?rcen voting only 60 sustain the veto, and no donbt they are heartily ashamed by this time of their effort to cripple the country's trade ami traffic. It is sijnrificant that only one populist voted for the bill, but it is not surprising that a large following of dem ocrats voted for it, for whatever else may be said, there are some democrats in congress who always have an eye single to the goad of the material welfare of the people, and who have the courage to vote right, whether it is for or againat the president. But the bill is now a law, and the work of improving the country's water ways and harbors should be Pushed as rapidly as possible. The portion of the appropriation that is designated for Cali- Icrnu is liberal enough to undertake the work cn a large scale, for of coarse the next congress and White bouse occupant mil bo heartily ia sympathy with the policy of interna! improvements, and hen co Enbseqnest appropriations can be relied upon. Passing the bill over the veto ia a great victory for the commerce of California, and the who!e canntrv toi the more so because it affirms a national policy that will stand for many years to come. And last, though not least, Cleveland is turned down to stav down Call. To one given (o thoughtful reflections the close of a week's labor presents food for meditation. During a week's bat tling in tho biuy affairs of lifo many problems come tu for solution that taxes one's powcis of disrcnuiicnt and rightful decision. Ho finds himself en- gulphed in a maelstrom of environ ments. His frail bark of self-interest is in a ceaseless secthini: of boistrotis waves dashing hither and thither ugains the Scilla of error on one sido ami tho Charybdis of mistakes on tho other. And lucky is ho or she who shall be able to stear clear of both and launch out ucn the calm sea beyond mul turn their prows safely into tho haven of peaceful repose. The multiplicity of self interests are so great, the inducements for gain engen dered by natuial desires, aie so potent and the opportunities fur indulgence are eo numerous and piessirg, that no ordi nary mind can fully comprehend at every phase of the Rhifting tcenes, the tnib courso to cersue, or has the power to always keep in the path of duty Life as we behold it, as a wbole.-Js a vast llowing river, sweeping on with a resistless current, coming from we know not whither, and llowing into an ocean of such vastness that ; lie mind cannot comprehend it. As we nre borne along on the mightv current we crasp at the littlu willow twigs of hope on the shores of little isles and rest for a few moments, often with the energy of despair, and then lloat on uown the stream again ever aud auon passing or are passed bv others, and finally drop into the ocean of Eternity to mingle with "those gone lfore" and form an eteinal oneness with that from which we emanated, as vapors from the ocean rise and minsle in the miner deep and are swallowed up by the invis ble air and carried over continents bv currents, moving under laws of cause of effect. So is man. He conies upon the stace of life under the operation of an immu table law, is pressed forward in the mighty current of the on flowing river of Life modified by environments he cau- not control, and ti rally passes over to the unknown sea of ultimate oblivion. If one be endowed with superior abili ties he may for a while shine like a brill lant me'eor in U19 firmament of human activities, but by and by ins light goes out, while the worM continues to revolve as bjfore.

FARMER DOYS. THE VOTE ANALYZED. An analysis of the vote last .Monday reveals some iueer facts not easily ex plained. The vote as compared with two yeirs ago with regard to pirty atfili ations, shows that while one candidate on the republican ficket had a bare plu rallty another of the party had a good majority overall competitors, and that two only were beatec the sheriff and coanty school superintendent ; the for mer by 163 plurality, the latter by only 01 plurality. The populists by a straight pirty vote polled, on an average, 710 votes. Eut their candidate for sheriff received only 4 14 vote?, a little more than half f he strength of his party. This fact show that at least 203 populists were won over to ,gee, democratic candidate for sher iff, thus electing him. The vote for district attorney shows tliat Yates, republican, gotoCO majority over Uptoa, the fusion candidate, 'Top. ana Hem., -. . Keed, Hep., got OlG majority over tho fusion candidate, Pop. and Vim., J . F. Gazley, for state eenator. v hen we scan tho votes of Canyon viilo and Oakland, which usually give a republican majority wo find they gave pbenoiuinal majorities last Monday for mo democratic candidates for Mipriff county clerk, assessor, surveyor and cor oner; while trator for couuty treasurer, and urawtorJ an J Kiddie.

Parrott climbed to the window and was met by the man, who tried to prevent him from entering by vicious kicks. While Parrott was struggling to gain admission through the wiudox, Kizenstein fired at the stranger from the street, the ball mak ing a slight wound in his shoulder. He then fell back into the room and Parrott followed him. They now had a tussle for the mastery. During this struggle, i'anott strnck him oyer the head with his pistol which silenced him. but be fore this, however, Parrott shot him again in the other shoulder, inflicting only a llesti wound.
