IRVINE Editor JIanngcr. AN OLD SUI'KKSTJTION. Tho prospective rise of Mr. Win dom to the treasury ngnin has once tmoro revived the silly tnlk about tho funding of the U. S. bonds at threo per cent, the high credit of the government and the patriotic spirit of bond purchasers, whoso greedily took tho bonds at tlint rate. A cen tury ago writers on iinance and pub lie economy explained that matter, but it is like the old superstition about the evils of money being taken out of tho country and will forever remain. The bonds tire simply money for wholesale dealings and jiroas indispcnslblo .for vast trans action as are nickels and dimes for littlo ones. Womlghtas well praise merchants for taking dollarsor dollar bills ut threo per cent as bond deal ers for taking bonds at that rate. Thoy simply "have their cake and cat It too" In that case. Thoy glvo small bills to get what for their pur poses aro big ones, which pass as currency in all tho great million dollar transactions. In fact they rather would pay something to get them if thoy could not do so other wise. TIIAIN TKLKOKAl'lIY. Telegraphing to and from the fast moving trains has been in use on itho Lehigh valley railroad for eigh teen months, and Is practiced now on soveral roads. It Is done by the nuiucuvo process, a powerful mag net being sot just under the car and tho wire being oxtended between the rails, so that tho current pusses to and from tho wire and magnet bv proximity. This saves the need of stopping a train to get orders by telegraph. Every stop Ih equal to a delay of four orllvo mlnutesut least, between slowing up and getting un--ler full headway. Tho so called fast trains olinply make no stops, run littlo If any faster than ordinary ones, Which really run faster than generally suspected, but loso so much at every stop that It amounts to a great deal In a hundred miles. OUKNAVY.J "Though our navy is small It Is better than that or either England or Germany, Jet them laugh who may. In 1887 wo had, 85 gun boats with a torpedo, nlno of which aro ironclads ; wo luivo idso eight now war vessels with nspeed of over eigh teen knots. Neither England nor Germany hiw nnavy tit to nond jibroud ; all aro for coast defense only. They can not carry supplies -mough and must depend on unar jnor.Hl vessels which two or threo of our fust cruiser could destroy in a few minutes." Qo writes II. M, Vail In IQuisAs City Time. , Tick Onegoiilun says that "the olork hlru-oKbe two post sessions Is u disgrace to the state Uwt session it cost eleven thousand and this ses sion fifteen thousand dollars. At tills rate it will bo twenty thousand noxt session, whereas lesa than eight thousand Is enough, while tins per diem or the members amounted to but eleven thousand or itbout one third ktn than the clerks." l. Wuhn Edison's phonognih wns llrst exhibited, a murmur of admira tion was hoard, which wus succeed ed by repeated applause, Somo of theHkupticul. myinler started fho rumor that tho auditors hud been lnyhtllled by i devor Yontriloqulst, and repeated experiments were re- liurei to convince iiieso incredulous persons thut no chicanery was used, nnd that tho "bilking tnUohlno" could bo uinnliHilutcii by anyone. fashion's onioiN Whence come the fashions? From Paris. And how did Paris get thcm,?jMostly from the stage. New splqndjd dostly costumes, aro con stantly being diseased for plays and the fashion radiates .from stage to the fashionable world. From Paris it goes the rounds. Now York City Is also getting to be a setter of fash ions to a certain extent, but those who give the fushious there are also uctresses. In some of the most swell plays the costumes ccHt frpra eight to twolve thousand dollars. The dress for Erminlo cost eight thousand and for Nadjy nine thous and. Tiimm are four hundred million aires in New York City alono. There are some six hundred of tho same wealth scattered around else where. Some of these have about two hundred million dollars each ; many have some five to twenty millions. In the year 1858 Astor of New York owned somo eight mil lions worth of property und Ling worth of Cincinnati had live mil lions. The two were then the richest men in tho Union. About the y ear 1854, Judge Charlie James of Cincinnati in a speech predicted that doubtless in the far future there might be citizens of our country even richer than those two, and he was universally ridiculed for his prediction. Yet by the lapse of twenty years his prophecy was more than fulfilled. No stern of this vast accumulation in the hands of private persons was seen uutil during the war. Law making gave tho grand opportunities and the power of riches did the rest. But for tho war no such phenomena could have developed. Wealth no longer needs theald of legislation to further its designs. Tjik perfect abandon with which some news writers abuse somo tri lling tilings, or persons who have no friends, must be n relict to their pent up feelings. They dare not criticise abuses around them and thereforo like chained dogs howl at tho moon. They know whom and what they abuse. A certalu man was onco upon a time passing by a hotel ut Louisville, Ky., and saw a big burly fellow ilylng down the steps aided by the too of the land lord's boot. Some time later ho saw tho kicked party wrathfully kicking some other person. Accosting him, "Hello, my friend ! Aro not you tho very fellow I saw kicked out of the Louisville hotel? What do you mean?" "Yea Colonel, I'mthoman. But we know who wo kick.'' Tun forgery by Pigott of tho Par nell letters which were the ground for tho eharires made by tho Times against Paruell, was found out by Eagan at Llncoln.Neb.Eagan's name was mixed up and forced to some of tho letters and ho by careful retro spection lit onPIggott, an old cor respondent of his, as tho forger and aft ho kept all his old letters ho had no dllllculty in convincing oxperts. Onco on tho track tho end was certain. This is tho worst blow the London Times ever received. Tjik Bcimpornong grape of North Carolina ought to succeed in somo purls of 'tho Willamette val ley. It makes the very best of wine. Each grape is about as big as a green gage plum, ,and only four on a bunch. It bears somo ten tons per acre. There is a fortune for who ever succeeds hi growing tills vino here, as the wino and brandy from it sell ut tho very highest prices. They are now grown in Nevada and Placer counties California. ViqroiUA, B. C., has extended her corporate limits u Iialf a mllo far ther. Tiik value, of .t;hu real estate of New York City Is eighteen billion dollars. Welcutu JUu-Jt, Professor Whitewater entered tho Kicker otllco day bciuna yesterday With a beaming smllo and extended ! hand, after uu absence of About ten months spent in the penitentiary. He was unfortunate ouQUgu,ft will bo remembered, to hurt some one in a dispute at tho lied Frout saloon, und tho court thought it best for him to tako a little vacation. Tho professor returns home looklug in uood health and 11 lied with enthusiasm over tho progress the town lias made during his absence. Wo welcome him.
