The Market Glutted With the White Metal. Prices Depreciating in Spite of Re publican Promises. The Director of the Mint Finds it Necessary to Bolster Up His Party's Policy. Associated Press Dispatches. Washington, Oct. 28. —Director of tlie Mint Leech makeß a long statement in regard to the treasury purchases of silver bullion, and the causes of the re cent decline in the market price of sil ver. He says the treasury method of purchasing silver has been criticized in these particulars: First —That the large purchases by the department do not include all the silver bought. Second—That the London price is used as the basis of government purchase. Third—That bids to the government are on the decimal system, and tend to favoritism. Answers to Criticisms. In regard to the first criticism he says: The government purchases silver as it does bonds —and indeed any article re quired in considerable quantities—by public competition, the lowest offers be ing always accepted, provided they do not exceed the highest market price. For the benefit of small producers, how ever, the superintendents of mints are authorized to purchase small lots at a price fixed from day to _day by the director, corresponding to the market price. These purchases average possi bly half a motion ounces a month. Second— IW is not true that the Lon don price is used as tlie basis of silver purchases under the new law. During the last administration, not only was the London price the only price used, but the departmeut did not pay the equivalent of the London price, but made a counter offer to bidders, on the theory that silver was worth less in New York than in London, on account of the cost of transportation and in surance across the water. The present administration has been governed in its purchase by the New York price. At no time since the passage of the new silver law —indeed for some months be fore—has the treasury felt itself limited in acceptances to Loudon prices. 'lbir.i—ln regard 'to tne government quotations being on the decimal basis, one of the articles says: "It isasus- significant fact that the gov ernment's quotations are on the decimal basis, which is a great advantage to those who may have advance informa tion in regard to the price the govern ment is willing to pay on a given date." The government has no scale of its own, and bidders use whatever scale suits them best. If one house happens to bid a decimal lower than another, is the government to decline the lower bid because of the decimal? The idea of any seller having "advance iniormation" as to the price the government will pay, is ridiculous and impossible. Ii there can be any fairer method devised for purchasing silver than by public competi tion, it would be difficult to conceive of such a method. It is the method which hits been pursued by the treasury under all administrations since 1878. Causes of the Decline. In regard to the recent decline in the price of silver, the causes which oper ated to produce it are apparent. In the first place, the visible stock of silver in New Yo»k has not sensibly decreased, notwithstanding the purchase by the government of 12,276,478 ounces of sil ver since August 13th. This large and undiminished stock is a standing men ace to the price of silver. Large west ern refineries, in hopes of realizing a large profit, held silver for months prior lo the passage of the new law, or deposited it in New York for certificates, and the result has been the accumula tion of a visible stock of such magni tude as to depreciate prices. It is very unfortunate that this stock has been allowed to accumulate, Aid especially that certificates have been allowed to be issued on it, and guaranteed by national I..ink and listed on the stock exchange to be dealt in on margins. It has made a football of silver, to be kicked around s', the pleasure of the bulls and bears. In my judgment, there should be a law enacted against dealing in money metals on margins. Exports Almost Entirely Ceased. v The usual demand for silver for ex port has almost entirely ceased. Not only is this the case, but large quanti ties of foreign silver have been shipped to the United States. Tbe imports of silver from May Ist to September 30th, the present year, ex ceeded the exports by"54,923,175, while for the corresponding period of last year, the exports exceeded the imports by $5,.110,990. This accounts for tho fact that while the government pur chased an amount equal to the current production of our mines, the stock has not diminished. During the same fieriod the shipments of silver to ndia have not sensibly decreased, although latterly they have been the usual amount; hence the sup ply for India has been obtained in Eu rope, or at least elsewhere than in the United States. So, too, in regard to the natural movement of silver to Japan, China .id the straits from San Francisco. Not an ounce of silver bullion has been shipped to the orient from San Francisco since May Ist, this year, while over $4,000,000" worth was shipped during the same period last year. These facts of themselves are sufficient to account for the decline which has taken place. All Sorts of Roorbacks. Then again ah sorts of roorbacks have been telegraphed from London to this country, thaurpose and effect of which was to weaken the price of silver. Tt is well known tbat we arc in the midst of ami a active mining season. Undoubt edly the production of silver has been WEDNESDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 29, 1890.--TEN PAGES. stimulated by the new silver law, but it must be remembered that we are ap proaching the period of winter months when mining is not so active; and more over, that the present activity in work ing mines, naturally results in more rap idly exhausting their lodes. So far as my information extends, there have been no new silver bonanzas discovered, and as aside from the discoveries of val uable silver-lead properties in Aus tralia, I am not aware of any large deposits of silver diecovejed within the last year or two; certaifily none recently. So, it is fair to presume that the silver product for any consider able period, unless there are new dis coveries, will not be materially increased by the present active working of the mines. No sensible person HkeH to make prophesies,especially on a subject which has proven so illusive as silver, but cer taiivyonewho has made a close study of the silver question, ought to find iii the facts mentioned sufficient causes for the recent dceline, without seeking for imaginary reasons and casting slurs upon the treasury method of purchases. Artesian Water. Wheatl\ni>, Oct. 28.—A flow of arte sian water was struck on the Kichley place, about a mile and a quarter west of Sheridan, in Placer county, at a depth of fifty-five feet. The well will flow in the neighborhood of 20,000 gallons per day. The farmers are rejoicing, as water is essential to successful agriculture on the uplands. It is expected that a series of experimental wells will be drilled soon. The Hennessy Assassination. New Orleans, Oct. 28.—The prelimi nary examination in the Hennessy assassination case has been postponed indefinitely on motion of the district attorney. The prisoners were remanded without bail. Two more folding guns were found by street gangs this morn ing, in the vicinity of the killing. They no doubt belonged to the assassins. RAILROAD GOSSIP. MUCH TALK ABOUT UNION PACIFIC AFFAIRS. An Official of the Company Makes Some Statements for the Public-Alleged Rate-Cutting. Boston, Oct. 28. Vice-President Lane of the Union Pacific railway, was seen today with regard to the stories with which the street of late teemed, derogatory to the Union Pacific, its management, etc. Witli regard to the boycott and the effect thereof, Lane said: "West-bound th rough business is really all that is affected, and even this can suffer but little." He also re marked that the Union Pacific-North western alliance, roaily concerned nobody but the two roads in interest. "What they do, is their own business. The Union Pacific people are not at all disturbed by the so-called boycott, and they find in the cases leading to it, and in the ill-feeling of competitors, an in spiration for all the recent wild reports concerning the road." The stories of accidents, Lane says, have been greatly exaggerated. Their system is getting an enormous traffic at the present time, more indeed than it can comfortably handle, and its equip ment is necessarily getting severe usage. A few accidents have naturally occurred under these circumstances, but none of these have involved any serious damage. As regards the latest story from Chi cago, published today, to the effect that the management was "Working tacitly to wreck the road, with a view to ulti mately turning it over to the Vander bilts, Lane says the yarn is too absurd to deny, and its animus is clearly ap parent to anyone who understands the present condition of affairs. Kansas City, Oct. 28. —The Trans- Missouri committee today considered the charges and counter charges of the Bur lington and Rock Island, regarding the alleged cut in San Francisco rates; also the complaints of the Wabash regarding the sale of forbidden return harvest excursion tickets, but the meeting ad journed without final action. In an interview this evening Chair man Finley attributes the present un easiness to the scalpers, against whom he proposes to take action. The nature oi his plans he would not divulge, but he believed wherever large blocks of tickets are found in the hands of scalp ers, he will authorize the roads in the association to sell below the scalpers.

An interest ing point of the suit is that the firm contends that the act of May 9th, pro viding for the classification of worsted clothes as woolens, does not apply, be cause the act was not passed according to law. They assert there was no quorum in the house when the bill was certified to have been passed, and that it was not legally enacted, though de clared passed by the speaker. WAS IT INTENTIONAL? Senator Sherman Talks About the De fect in the Tariff Bill. Cincinnati, 0., Oct. 28.—Senator Sherman was quoted last week as saying that tbe absence of the rebate clause from the revenue section of the tariff act was intentional. The Tobacco Jour nal wrote the senator about it. He replies that the express purpose of postponing the tak ing effect of section 30. which provides for a reduction of internal taxes, until after the Ist of January, 1891, was that it was believed as the general law took effect October 6th, a lapse of nearly three mouths would be sufficient to exhaust the supply on hand, and there fore no rebate was provided.

POLITICAL POINTS. Capt. F. Edward Gray of Al hambra Again. Morrow's Tariff Views Ripped Vigorously Up the Back. An Eastern Paper on the Silver Bill of the Republican Party. It Shows How John Sherman's Schema is Simply Repeated in the Bill Passed Last Session. Tho case being altered, that alters the case. Before the convention "Captain F. Edward Gray, of Alhambra," through his home penny whistle, announced boldly that no tenderfoot need apply for the office under the auspices of the g. o. p. Now that the four nigger votes, at $40 cash and $35 contingent fee, defeated Tom Lewis and got "Captain F. Edward Gray, of Alhambra," the nomination, the tenderfeet are fine fellows. Hear what the penny whistle says now "The Los Angeles Herald, in an in sidious article of the 21st inst., endeav ors to create strife in the Republican party in this way: After referring to an article published in the Review previous to the convention, wherein Mr. Gray is mentioned as not being a 'tenderfoot,' the Herald goes on to say,'this of course was aimed at Tom Lewis. Gray will probably hear from it two weeks from today.' "Every one who knows Mr. Lewis knows that he is too sincere a Republi can, and too thorough a gentleman to have allowed himself to harbor resent ment on account of defeat at the conven tion or to be a party to such an article published in a Democratic paper." This is the result of four nigger votes at $40 cash down and $35 contingent fees. All the same the tenderfoot voter may get out his knife for "Capt. P, Ed ward Gray of Alhambra," and it may need more than $75 worth of nigger votes to pull him through. Editors Herald Last night I was attracted to the Turner hall to hear the Hon. Morrow explain the McKinley tariff bill, which became a law on the 6tb inst. I had a curiosity to hear what he would say. First he entered the arena in defence of2''Czar Reed, the late speaker of the house of representa tives. He piled mountains of abuse upon the Democratic side of the house because they made use of the only method left them to retard the obnox- ious, partisan and ruinous legislation, j and prevent, if possible, the ousting from" congress, Democratic members j fairly elected and seated. He justified the unprecedented arbitrary and des potic methods in his unheard-of rulings to belittle, ignore and debar the Demo orotic side of the house not only from aiding in making the laws of the nation, but in throwing any barrier in the way of extreme party measures of the Republican party. For these tyrannical acts of Speaker Reed he lauded him so v statesman, a hero and patriot, when every fair-minded, thinking man, Dem ocrat and Republican, knows that Speaker Reed's overbearing, unjust, un manly, tyrannical, despotic, partisan and unheard of methods exercised over the national congress, composed of the servants and representatives of the peo ple of this great nation, must condemn him to eternal fame, that his name—j "Czar Reed" —will sink into the depths c! infamy, only to be mentioned in con- j nection with Arnold and Burr and .Iv- j das; and when the future generations shall pronounce their execrations, they will say: "Let him be as Arnold, Burr, Judas and "Czar Reed.' The speaker then told of the glorious achievements and mighty works of the Republican 1 party in congress assembled, after the j Democratic side of the house had been j effectually gagged. Finally he reluct antly came to the McKinley tariff bill. Very cautiously he selected here and there an item that would suit his pur pose best. He spoke of free sugar, I colfee and tea, and told the people that j now the poor man could sit down at his j table and eat his meal free of all tax! And I suppose some of them believed what he said, whereas the asser tion is as false as Satan. Why|» the material of which the table is made is taxed; the screws and nails with which it is put together are taxed; the hammer, plane and saw with which it is made are taxed the linen spread upon it is taxed the knives and forks with which he eats are taxed; the napkin with which he wipes his mouth is taxed; the eggs, butter, cheese, bread, fruit, salt and nearly every thing he eats is taxed, and yet the Hon. Morrow says: "Now tlie poor man can sit down to a free breakfast." Yes, with a vengeance! But the honorable gentleman failed in toto to explain the McKinley bill. He was careful not to tell his "audience that the McKinley tariff is the highest ever imposed on the people of the United States; he failed to tell them that the McKinley tariff is 60 per cent; he failed to tell them that Postmaster Wanamaker, the greatest American clothier, present postmaster general, is realizing the benefit of about 80 per cent tariff on clothing, so that when the poor man buys a suit of clothes he pays on that suit 80 per cent taxes he forgot to inform his audience that the tariff on fine silks and other high price articles, such as are used by the rich, is much less than on those used by the poor. The speaker did not inform his audience that manufacturers sell their products 30 per cent cheaper in Europe and South America than they do to the consumer at home—that, of course, would be the death blow to the necessity of protection, but it is so. Here it is: Tbe millmen sell as follows, delivered on ship, in New York harbor: To tbe To the Spaniard. American. Price. Price. Advance plow SO 00 $18 00 Advance plow 4 00 8 00 Hay tender 30 00 45 00 Mower 40 00 05 00 Home rake 17 00 25 00 Cultivator 3p 00 30 00 This price list, with many other arti cles, is a copy from their own adver tisements. From the above it will be seen that the millman can actually afford to sell a plow in South America for $9, for which he charges his home customer $18. He can actually compete with foreign mill men in any market, but when he comes to sell to" his home customers he must have a high protective tariff to keep out competition so that he can skin them, making them pay double, the price that he can sell to ioreigndrs for. Why is this so? Why, the Republican party keeps in power by mopey; Harrison was electea by money; VNew York was carried for him by th* money of the bureau of merchants, with Postmaster- THE LOS ANGELES HERALD: WEDNESDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 29, 1890. General Wanamaker as their president. High tariff tarnishes the "fat," and every mil I man, when the emergency comes, must walk up to the pan and have the "fat fried" out of him, and woe be to him if he refuses to let the "fat" out freely. This is a deplorable state of affairs, but it is so. I repeat, the Republican party is kept iv power by means of money, and that money is raised by a high tariff. A tax upon the people, the high tariff, is placed to the credit of the millmen by the party, with the proviso that a large share of it is to be paid into the campaign treasury of the Republican party when required. And thus by this cunning manner and tactics the whole nation is tariffed or taxed to keep in power the Republican party, so that it is apparent at first glance that a high protective tariff would be unnecessary were it not for the "fat" the party fries out of the 14, --500 mill owners; they can sell as cheap to the home consumer as to the for eigner, but for having to furnish the "fat" to the party. The speaker ig nored or unfairly presented the facts at issue in the tariff bill. The speech was milk and water with much of the latter; it was ingenious, but facts forbid analy zation. Yours truly, Revenue. "I don't put a great deal of faith in the report that the silver men in con gress are going to make another strike next session for a free coinage law," re marked a well-known authority on sil ver financiering to your correspondent this morning. "In the first place, they know what a hard fight they bad to make last session to get what they did, and they are afraid of antagoniz ing the Republicans who want to use all the time of the next session in get ting bills of their own through." "Are they not afraid also of Speaker Reed and nis whip?" "Not so much as might be supposed. Reed spent his force on that subject last winter. Moreover, he did it to save President Harrison from a fatal di lemma. The president rewarded his loyalty by turning over the best patron age in the Portland district to the speak er's enemies. There is no love lost be tween the two men now, I can tell you; and while Reed would do a good deal to divert the Republican party from what he considered a bad political mistake, he wouldn't lift his finger to save Har rison from destruction." "The silver men are discontented, surely?" "Of course they are, and they are go ing to make their restlessness felt. But it will be next congress—not next ses sion. They may introduce a dozen bills between December and March, but the committee won't act on them. In the next congress, no matter which party is on top, you may mark my words—there will be passed a free coinage act, and the president will find that he has only put off the evil day of decision be tween the west and the east. The present law has been an utter fail ure. It has neither depreciated silver, which would have given its enemies the ammunition they wanted, nor sent it up to par, which would have given its friends something to crow over. It sim ply caused a speculative spurt, on which a lew big operators got rich and then followed a slump, which caught and en gulfed nearly every small investor. There it hangs now, like Mohammed's coffin, between heaven and earth— quoted at 109, while the campaign docu ments issued by the Republican party for western consumption give the figures at 120." "Outside of speculative and political circles how do you find the new law re garded?" "Badly—very badly. The treasury department, in its effort to boom silver for the honor of the administration, has overreached itself. The mint bureau is required under the McKinley act, as you know, to issue quarterly—instead of yearly, as heretofore—a statement of the values of foreign coin. The lirst circu lar bore date October L. The director of the mint, having no law to guide him, had the option of using for a standard the average value of silver for the pre ceding three months, or its value on the last day of the quarter; but silver had already begun such a serious decline that he hesitated to do that, as his course at this time would establish a precedent, and there was no telling how low silver might be by the time the next quarter day came around. On the other hand, he did not want to take the average of the whole three months last preceding, as that would have made the figure sadly low. So he compro mised by striking an average for the thirty days of September. On that basis he made the Austrian florin worth 42 cents. Now, note what happens: The importer who buys in Austria, or anywhere the Austrian florin is tbe unit of jprice, a bill of goods which pay duty ad valorem, has those goods valued in our ports for the whole of the last quarter ot the year on the scale of 42 cents to the florin. As a matter of fact, the florin is worth today less than SO cents. That means a dead loss to him, through excess of duty, of 7 per cent, enough to wipe out the profits on some things which have to be sold very close to the market. At the date of the next valuation who can tell what the price of the florin will be, or whether the mer chant who has laid in a stock of staples which he carries over into next year will have to compete with later importa tions that pay duty on a florin valuation of 38 or 36 or 35? It is a miserable bus iness for importers and for trade gen erally—this useof a metal which bounces up and down in price, and on which no body can count for a day in advance. If the treasury is going to make any settled rule in this matter of averages, it ought to take the prices of the whole three months. Then there would be less ol a pure gamble in it."—[Washington Cor respondence of the New York Post. COURT NOTES. Little Legal Happenings Which Were Noted Yesterday. Jacob Vreeland, a Los Angeles man, who had refused to answer thequestions of a census enumerator, was tried yes terday in the U. S. district court. The jury, under the directions of Judge Ross, acquitted the defendant. A venire of sixty grand jurors was ordered drawn in the U. S. district court yesterday, returnable November 17th at 11 o'clock. The demurrer to the indictment charg ing W. C. Lockwood with embezzling $300 bail money, was overruled yester day by Judge Cheney. Lockwood then pleaded not guilty. Leopold Kuypers, who was arrested on Monday on two charges of battery on his wife and on his cousin, yesterday swore out a warrant against Adele De clodt, a lover, whom he charges with having thrown a black and tan terrier so violently to the ground on Monday, that one of the animal's legs was broken. M. Dannzygar was yesterday natural ized in department one. The Udell bigamy trial came to a con clusion yesterday. After the argument had terminated, Judge Cheney told the jury that they might find a verdict of not guilty, but they were not bound by hiß advice. The jury acquitted the de fendant and he waß discharged. David A. Givens, from Kingston, Can ada, was admitted on credentials to prac tice in the superior court yesterday, by Judge McKinley. THE SUPERVISORS. They Transact Considerable Business at Yesterday's Session. Yesterday Supervisor Davis reported to the board tbat he had investigated the complaint of citizens respecting the dam erected by B. Ballerino Upon the east side of Vermont avenue. The dam ia 300 feet in length, and is weak. In case of heavy rains it will break and cause more or less destruction to prop erty below it, and might endanger life. The matter was referred to the district attorney, with instructions to take such steps as may be advisable. In the matter oi the building of the Cheesbro private road, near Las Vir genes, H. F. Stafford, Wm. T. Smith and Mr. Russell were appointed viewers. The demand of the Democratic county central committee to have the office of 6th supervisor placed in the proclama tion was referred to the district at torney. J. S. Doty appeared before the board and stated that Cyrus May, appointed on the election board at Whittier, is a Prohibitionist, and that he had attended the Prohibition convention recently held here. Also, that George L. Hazzard does not reside in Whittier precinct. On that ground the latter's appointment was cancelled. The following motion of Supervisor Davis was adopted: Whereas, The grading of Main, Broad way, Hope, Flower and Figueroa streets has the effect of conducting large vol umes of water upon the district lying south of and adjacent to the city, which floods many of the residences, greatly damaging property, and inducing sick ness and disease; therefore be it Resolved, That the city council of Loa Angeles city be requested to take such measures as may be necessary to arrest the flow of said waters and conduct them to a point where they will cause no damage. The committee on county jail, ap pointed to arrange for rooms for women and children, as requested by the grand jury, reported that there was in the up per story of the jail suitable rooms to accommodate at least ten or twelve per sons. They recommended that the sheriff be requested to reserve them for the use of women and children only. The report was adopted. LOVE AND THE LAW. Happy Beings Who Have Secured Permission to Wed.

READY. W. P. HYATT. WEDNESDAY. OCTOBER 29, 1890. Hon. 8. M. White is making a very vigorous fight up north for the state and legislative tickets. He writes in a very reassuring tone of the outlook in the far north. The McKinley tariff schedule and Blame's reciprocity hobby cheated Los Angeles county out of two beet-sugar factories. Do not forget this feature of the bill, when you voie for congressman and legislative candidates next Tuesday. The Republican government of state and county for the past four years has been the most corruptly wasteful that ever has been known in California, and Los Angeles. The party ought to be re tired until it learns a few lessons in economy. To vote the Republican legislative ticket is to vote power into the enemy's hands to jerrymander the state for two years to come in districting it for legis lative and congressional purposes. Re member this, all who have the good of the Democratic party at heart. To vote for the Republican legislative ticket is to vote for less fitting men than the Democratic nominees. It is also to vote for a Republican United States sen ator who relies on "boodle" mainly for his election, and whose "boodle is fur nishing the means to defeat our county and state ticket. The man who votes the Republican ticket next Tuesday will be voting side by side with a lot of hirelings who have sold their manhood and the free institu tions of their country for a meal of victuals. Vote the Democratic ticket and protect yourself from the contagion of this political leprosy. Das Burns, a defaulter to the state in the sum of $31,000, is the man who nom inated Col. Markham, and it is he who is making the fight for the Republican ticket. The state is not safe in the hands of thieves. Burns is the power behind the throne. Vote against Mark ham, and you knock out Burns. We reproduce from the Louisville Times an article commendatory of Judge Knott, one of the Democratic candi dates for superior judge in Los Angeles county. He was for years a distinguished practitioner of Lebanon, Kentucky, and has the hearty indorsement of his com patriots. We hope that Mr. Knott will beelected, as he would undoubtedly do hJlor to the position. people will vote for T. E. for supervisor and scratch off name of E. A. Forrester, in whose Half the low trick was played of dis- Hbuting a "snipe" with his card on HTrough tbe circulation of the Herald, By bribing the small boys who serve the «ity subscribers. The man who would stoop to such a trick is not worthy to be trusted with one cent. Elsewheke Mr. H. W. Hollman cor nets a ridiculous canard to the effect that bis brother, Mr. I. W. Hellman. president of the Bank of Nevada, was coming down to Los Angeles to take a t« fhn tiffht for county treasurer THE LOS ANGELES HERALD; WEDNESDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 29, 1890. here. As a matter of fact, that gentle man has never had the slightest inten tion to mix: in our local contest. The rumor was doubtless started to enable the Republicans to raise a local sack. What effect it has had in that direction the Herald is not yet advised. It was a stupid maneuver at best. GOLDSWORTHY AND MARKHAM. In 1884, when Markham was a candi- j date for congress, it was charged against him that he had employed Chinese in the Oro Grande mine. At that time Goldsworthy had not found out the de vious course his paitner had pursued in business, and wrote a good-natured let ter to help out his political and business friend. In that letter Goldsworthy stated that Markham had never hired any Chinese to work in the mine. In a literal sense that was true, and prob ably is true now. ln spirit it was un true, for while Markham did not in per son hire the Chinese, he did the same act through his superintendent. And the force of the phrase is as good as ever it was in the old days when its Latin inventors used it What one does through an agent, he does himself. Recently this letter has been reprinted all over the state, to weaken the force of the old pard letter, and also the force of Goldsworthy's antagonism to Markham. The reproduction of this letter will de ceive none but the most easily gulled. Goldsworthy felt kindly to his partner Markham in 1884, for the rea son that he thought him an upright, straightforward man. Later on he discovered this view to be an er roneous one, and would not write such a letter to help him now. Many people have radically changed their mind of Markham since his nomination as gov ernor, and radically for the worse. Goldsworthy's letter of 1884 does not touch at all the point made in the "Dear Pard" letter, which is simply that Markham expressed his delight that tlie Irish miners had been fired and their places rilled with Chinese, in these words: "I am glad that Irish crowd is out, and hope the Chinese will be all right." These are the words the Irish will be likely to remember at the polls next week. PRICES AND PROFITS. A Ventura county farmer writes that from 350 prune trees, standing on about three acres of ground, he dried last sum mer ten tons of prunes, which sold for eight cents per pound. That is $1600 ior the crop from three acres of fruit orchard in the semi-tropics. That property will be seen to be paying more than ten per cent, on a valuation of $6000 an acre. The same farmer picked 400 tons of ripe apricots from an orchard of seventy-four acres, which dried into eighty tons oj merchantable fruit, worth sixteen cents per pound, or $25,600 worth of fruit from the seventy-four acres that is at the rate of about $375 per acre. That is ten per t;ent. on a valuation of $3,750 per acre. These are gross results, and no allow ance made on the cost of handling, but even so it is about twenty-Jive times a better showing than any other section of the country can make. Yet the tenderfoot is wont to think our prices of land too high. Of course no one asks $4000 or $5000 for orchards of any sort, even in full bearing. One tenth of these figures are considered quite satisfactory, at which rate the crop of the past year would pay for the property. That ought to be considered a bargain to the buyer, and if he made but half the returns here reported, or even one-quarter of them, he might still be regarded as a lucky buyer. Ex cellent land for the cultivation of those fruits may be had ready to plant the trees on at $50 to $200 an acre, the latter a fancy price asked for land suited to orange culture even, and near a town. To vote the Republican congressional or legislative tickets is to perpetuate the iniquitous tariff that keeps prices on all articles of general consumption at an enormous figure,with not a cent's benefit to labor; and it is to keep silver in the place of a mere commodity, with no quality of a precious metal attached to it. It is to maintain the improper as cendancy of gold and double the pur chasing power of the millionaire's wealth. It is to maintain stagnation in business and retard the development of the great west. It is to make the millionaire richer in all respects, and keep the poor forever poor. Under the extravagant Republican regime that has cursed the county for four years, all the departments of gov ernment swarm with a gang of useless hangera-on—mere loafers, who live like fighting cocks at the public expense and render no services in return. Every office has at least twice as many attaches as under the honest old Democratic of ficials. Let us get back to the days of honest economy by putting good men in power once more. In foi'r years the Republican party has forced taxes in Los Angeles county from $400,000 to $1,500,000. 'There is nothing to show for the expenditure of all this sum annually. We had as good roads, as many bridges, and quite as much public safety with Democratic officials for less than one-third the money. Let us return to sensible meth ods of doing the public business and save two-thirds of our taxes. TRUTH WILL PREVAIL. Even About a Long: Beach Political Meeting;. Accuracy in political matters is not apparently a consideration in the politi cal department of the Times. That re ligious daily, on yeßterday morning, in its report of a meeting held at Long Beach on Monday evening, says: "A. Guy Smith, candidate for the as sembly in the Seventy-eighth district, was cordially received, and the district will be fortnnate if he is elected." "J. A. Kelly, next county recorder, and others, were presented." As a matter of fact, Mr. Smith and Mr. Kelly were conspicuous only by their absence, neither being within several miles of that platform that evening. Senator McComas did make a speech, which fact was not mentioned in the Times' report, and spoke so long and with such disastrous effect that chair man Kenyon Cox had to ask him to stop. There were 500 people present, of whom 300 were women and children.' DESTRUCTIVE FLAMES. Heavy Losses by Fire at Eureka Springs, Ark., and Newport.

Upon the authority of several passages' in history we arc led to believe that fa mous wizards, magicians and astrologers have constructed not less than six brazen heads which possessed all the faculties of speech. The first of these was constructed by Monk Gerbcrt, who afterward became pope, with the title of Sylvester H. Tlie head is said to have predicted that G er bert would be pope, and that he would not die until he had said mass in Jeru salem. After the first part of the proph ecy had been fulfilled and he had placed the papal tiara upon his head he resolved to live forever by steering clear of Jeru salem. While saying mass one day in a small church in a suburb of Rome Sylvester was taken \yith a sudden rigor. Know ing that his end was near he asked the rector if the church had any special name. Being informed that it was pop ularly called "Jerusalem" he closed his eyes and died within an hour. The second "brazen speaking head" was made by Robert Grosseteste, an Italian bishop residing in London, be tween the years 1175-1253. The third is said to have been the re sult of thirty years' labor on the part of Albertus Magnus, who was born in the year 1205 A. D. Friar Bacon, who died in 1294, is given the credit of having made a brazen head which constantly repeats the words, "Time comes, time is, time's past." The Marquis of Vilena (1384-1434) also made a speaking head of sheet brass. A Polish disciple of Escotello made the sixth and last of the famous "speak-* ing heads of brass."—St. Louis Repub lic. Parrots and Burglars. Wo can easily believe that some par rots are as good as policemen. Not long ago two young men sold a parrot to the wife of a night watchman in New York. A few days afterward they visited the house, with dishonest intention, about 8:30 o'clock in the morning; but the bird shrieked out, "Papal papa!" until it woke its mistress and frightened the robbers away. "Papa" was the watch man, who waa absent from the house on duty. A Chicago parrot also once scared a burglar. He was trying to gain an en trance into tho house by the dining room window, when he was startled by a voice that asked him to "come off the perch." Long silence ensued, and the burglar began work again. Once more he was ordered in sepulchral tones to "come off the perch." This strange voice at dead of night bidding him to cease his evil doing was more than the man could stand, and he hastily left the scene. Cuvier, the great naturalist, was well looked after by his parrot. It kept watch at the study door and asked every stranger, "What do you want with my master?" After receiving an answer its next piece of advice was, "Don't talk too much!"— New York Press. Half and Half. Monday morning a curious looking dog came over the bridge and trotW down the street with a bashful grin on his dirty face as if on exhibition. A closer observants of the animal showed that he had some curious features in his makeup. Although most resembling a dog he was evidently part mountain bear. His hind quarters were exactly like those of a black bear, and his walk was a close imitation of the swagger mountain animals of that kind have. He was not inclined to be quarrelsome, but no one seemed to court his friend ship, and he was last seen going into the country. It was stated that a gentle man in Marysville had recently been made a present of an animal of that kind, half dog and half bear, and be coming tired of the animal took him into the river bottom to put him out of the way. Before he could shoot him the dog-bear ran off, and the one which put in an appearance in Yuba City is probably the same animal. Sutter County Farmer. A I! right Jury. Daniel O'Connell was at one time de fending a man accused of murder at Clonmel. The circumstantial evidence was so strong against the prisoner that the jury had already determined upon their verdict of guilty, when the man supposed to be murdered was brought into court, alive and unhurt. The jury was desired to return their verdict at once, and they did so, but it was one of "Guilty." "What does this mean?" in quired the judge: "if the man has not been murdered how can the prisoner be guilty?" "Please, yer honor," said the foreman, "he's guilty: he stole my bay mare three years ago."—San Francisco Argonaut. Headache from tbe Nose. Headache is also sometimes due to troubles within the nose and ears. Every one knows that a pain in the forehead is a very constant symptom of a common cold, in which the nasal passages are in volved. There are other affections of these parts, some to which little or no importance is attached by the victim, which may give rise to the same symp toms. Dr. Brunton says: "As far as my experience goes, headache depending upon disease of the nose is at the top of the head, just behind the commencement of the hairy scalp, and headache here should always lead to the examination of the nose. "—Boston Herald. A GENEROUS GIFT. Immanuel Presbyterian Church the Beneficiary. The Banning boys come of an open handed, generous stock. They have inherited all the good qualities of their ancestors. Hancock is named after a gentleman whose heart was as big as a liasket. That was the lato General Winfield Scott Hancock. Hancock is in the coal business, and there are few so white in any business. IHe is a young man who has made every I thing succeed that he has put his I hand to. Hancock's smile is worth a pretty handsome capital in business. And it is always the same,whether he is I engaged in besting a fleet with his hand some yacht, or selling a carload of Well ington coal to some business house. Hancock Banning does not sell all the i coal he brings. He gives a good deal of it away. If he hears of a poor family i suffering in cold weather he sends them I a fire or two. He heard the new Im manuel church was nearly finished and would need to be well warmed be fore it was opened, so he just sent down a carload of his best coal. Just like him —just like the whole family. ROPING A HOG Resulted in an Assault With a Rasp. A dairyman named Timothy Sullivan, was arrested yesterday afternoon by Officer Maguire, upon a warrant charg ing him with battery. He was taken to the station, but on depositing bail in the sum of $15 secured his release from cus tody. The complaint upon which he was arrested was sworn to by H. C. Preston, one of his employees, who alleged tint after an altercation about roping a hog, Sullivan struck him, whereupon he attempted to defend him self with a rasp, but was badly done up by his burly employer.

DELICATE QUESTIONS FOR SCHOOL SUPERINTENDENT SEAMAN TO ANSWER. One of His School Principals Gives Him Some Problems to Solve—la He Able to Excuse Himself and Explain His Peculiar Conduct of His Office? Editors Herald I want the Herald to print another letter in regard to some of the abuses in our schools. Before I start in I wish to say that I am one of the corps now employed in this city, that what I say can be proven, and I wish most earnestly that the grand jury will accept the invitation of one Gosper to investigate all charges made against that much abused body. I am well aware that my scalp may be taken for thus daring to find fault with the "powers that be," but I trust I am man enough to find work elsewhere, should my head fall for my imprudence. I, like the man who is after Seaman, would like to ask our city board a few questions, and invite them to answer through the same source, namely, your paper, ray conundrums. To begin with, why are our schools in such a wretched condition today? I have been here two years, and I say plainly, and in this I am joined by every teacher with whom I have talked, that they are in the most dread ful state possible. In what way I will try to do the inquiry justice. In the first place we nave no graded schools—none are primary and none are grammar. Many of the" teachers are struggling along with four classes, some with five, and nearly all with three. Two is the exception. This is worse than the half-day business, don't you think? This, after all the money wasted, is, to say the least, exasperat ing. VVe are worse off than the country schools, for we are pinned down to a certain amount of work whether we can do it or not. I want an answer to my question. Why are the schools in this horrible condition The answer here tofore lias been, "The strangers coming in," etc. That is now a chestnut, and I wish a plainer reply. My next question is this: Why has the board elected at least one teacher,who has had only a few weeks' experience, when their rules are that no teacher shall be elected who has not had at least one year's experience? The answer to that can be anticipated, no doubt, by many of us, and not a fe?v of the normal school girls are congratu lating themselves that as one of their number who graduated December, 3889, was elected the following June, they may be equally fortunate. Don't be too sure, girls, for your father may not be a school director. My next question is one that has been asked before, and remains unanswered. Why is one principal given two school buildings at an extra cost of $85 per month, as shown by Taxpayer some time since? Why has that matter not been made right before this? Why did Dr. Morris say that in regard to that "mat ter "the board had made a mistake in figuring, that they thought they were saving money." Does he think for a moment that any one believes such an absurd statement for the covering up of such a little fraud My next question is one that will ap peal directly to the heart of every teacher in this department. Why are we as sensible, intelligent (I hope)* men and women at the mercy of the spiteful "marking" of one A. E. Baker? Why is he selected, of all people, to say whether we shall remain in the schools"? Why is a man who -has had only four years' experience in this work given the privilege of criticising teachers who are as far above him as one person can be above another? Of what normal school is he a graduate? If he were an educated man capable of passing upon the merits of educators, why was he obliged to go before the county" board of this county twice before he succeeded in getting a certificate? I think he woujd better have kept on trying, as he started in, to be a preacher; lie certainly is too narrow-minded to be a teacher. His case is one of the painful ones of where a man has greatness thrust upon him. I feel particularly ugly toward this nipped-in-the-bud parson today, after returning from a teachers' meeting, where, in addition to all the rest of our work in crowded rooms, he has given us enough work for the fourth and fifth grades in zoology to keep us hard at work for a year, and we are told we must do it in six weeks! I am only voicing th% opinions of every teacher in our schools when I ask the board to at least give us live men for superin tendents, in place of two dead ones— are dead physically, and unable, even if capable, to do his work the other dead mentally, and capable only of exercising his little spiteful, venomous marking of teachers, who are his superiors in every thing. I feel that all is not 60 harmonious as it might be in the board toward these two men, and I hope if you will print this as coming from a teacher that other opinions may be gotten, and that the public may find out how we do regard these men who wield so much power at present. I have many more questions to ask, if I find you are not too politic to let a teacher speak out, and shall follow this letter with another one which will be devoted partly to city and partly to county school affairs. The people do not dream of some things we, as teach ers, have been obliged to undergo and you will be doing the schools of this city a favor if you will give us a chance to speak our minks for once, through your paper. More hereafter. Taxpayer and Principal. BILLY DOWNED AGAIN. He Only Lasts for Three Rounds at San Diego. Billy Manning went to San Diego for a fight, saw his man on Sunday last and was conquered in three lounds. His op ponent was "Billy Scott," a lightweight, who is better known under another name. The fight came off at Coronado Heights, and lasted ten minutes. The conditions were that Scott should knock Highest of all in Leavening Power.—U. S. Gov't Report, Aug. 17, 1889. ABSOLUTEiy PURE THE LOS ANGELES HERALD: WEDNESDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 29, 1890. out Manning in fifteen minutes, and the purse was $250. Manning led for two rounds, but on the third Scott swung his right on Manning's jugular, and the subsequent proceedings interested him no more. Manning wants a return match for $500 or $1000, under London prize-ring rules. THE CITY CHARTER* Proposed Amendments Agreed Upon by the Council Committee.

The prevalence of ailments attributable to miasmatic poison in the air that people breathe, and the water they drink, is well nigh unac countable. Not alone in pestilential swamps, badly drained suburban districts, and marshes exposed to the sun's rays by the receding tide, is this scourge of humanity found. Even in great cities, healthfully located, skillfully sewered, well looked after in every respect in a sanltar J way, we find malaria. Its presence is inexplicable, but its attacks are always preventable. The protector is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. The eradicator bears the same name —a name known to thousands throughout our broad land and elsewhere as a synonym of relief prevention and cure of the Insi iJous disorders in its abominable phases chills and fever, bilious remittent, dumb ague and ague cake, as well as others I!or is the Hitters less effective for indigestion, kidney complaint, biliousness and rheumatism.

8 APPLIED THICKLY. THE GRAND JURY DOES CONSID ERABLE WHITE-WASHING. A Partial Report Made Yesterday to Judge Cheney—Everything Found Lovely—A Few Minor Improvements Suggested. The grand jury yesterday afternoon made a partial report to Judge Cheney. No indictments were brought in. The report is given below: Los Angeles, Oct. 28, 1890. Honorable W. A. Cheney, Judge of the Superior Court: The grand jury herewith submit to you a partial report of their committee on county officials, sheriff, tax collector, and county recorder, as adopted by the grand jury. Yours, respectfully, John H. F. Peck, Foreman of the grand jury. Recorder's Office. The committee on county officials begs leave to report herewith the result of the experts, examination of the office of the county recorder from May 1,1889, to SBeptember 1, 1890: Number of instruments of writing placed on record, 47,332, producing fees amounting to $48,121.70, which amount was paid into the treasury. The cost of the office to the county in the same time has been $40,327.81, which does not include books, stationery and similar charges. The accounts of the office are well and accurately kept, and we have only words of commendation in this regard. We desire, however, to make these recom mendations in the interest of the public good: First. We have caused to be counted the words in a number of papers of record, and find that the system of mak ing estimates of the number of words in any given number of papers, on the basis in use in the office, works to the advantage of the county and against tbe person presenting papers for record; and we are satisfied, from the average charge on the papers counted, that not less than $5000 per annum has gone into the county treasury that should have remained in the pockets of the people. We therefore recommend that the re corder, by actual count of a sufficient number of instruments, form a new basis of estimate more just to the people, while giving to the county its just dues. Second. There has been considerable testimony showing that in the past trans actions erasures on tbe records and cor rections of words and figures and many interlineations on the books of record have been made without any certificates appearing therewith to show when and why made. Quite lately an improve ment in this regard has been made, but we recommend that in future no erasure of any kind shall be permitted in a rec otd book, and that when an error has been made, the comparer shall cause to be drawn across such error parallel lines of red ink, sufficiently light to leave plain the words to be defaced, and the words there above substituted or inter lined shall be closely written and that the comparer shall certify such changes at the bottom of the instrument, signed by the recorder. Third. The law contemplates and re quires that in all cases of sales of prop erty for taxes, the tax collector shall file "scopies of the certificates of sales with the recorder. The intent of this is that any taxpayer may examine the record and ascertain whether by mistake or Otherwise, his property may have been sold for taxes, a very proper and just provision, to which the recorder should give effect by causing to be prepared a suitable indexed record book, by which the person desiiing to satisfy himself may do so in a moment and without be ing subject to expense. We suggest that the board of super visors shall put into effect these several recommendations. Tax Collector. In reference to the office of tax col lecter, the committee reported as fol lows Your committee on county officials, to whom was referred the expert's report of the tax collector's office, beg leave to cay that we have given patient, careful and critical examination to said report, and also to the report of Expert Black man to the board of supervisors on the same object; after having the testimony of C. W. Blake, clerk of the board, and J. T. Smith, cashier of ex-Tax Collector Piatt, we have been unable to deter mine with any degree of positiveness to whom in exact justice belongs the sum of $204.02, which is apparently a surplus after Mr. Piatt's accounts for tax rolls, with which he is chargeable, as they passed into bis hands. The collection of one and one-third million dollars, evidenced by 45,000 stubs, involves so many transactions from a few cents to hundreds of dollars, that it is not at all strange that some errors and discrepancies occur, and the wonder is, really, that so few have oc curred. The adjustment ot the same should have been approached on either hand with the fullest exercise of pa tience and a disposition to do right, in the spirit of frank fairness. Whether or not such was the case in the settle ment recently had, we do not express an opinion. Mr. Piatt does not claim the apparently smallisurplus above named, and we deem it impossible to determine to whom it should go, and it, together with the sum of $132.71 now in the county treasury as a rebate fund, may never be called for and will, if not, re vert to the county. The cause of the apparent surplus of $16,855.54, arising from the 50-cent charge for advertising delinquent taxes and the 50-cent fee for certificates of tax eale, will appear, we presume, when the examination of the auditor's office shall be made by the committee having the same in charge, and we can only recom mend that in future the settlements made monthly should be adjusted to the mutual satisfaction of the board of supervisors and the tax collector. Sheriff's Office. Concerning the conduct of the sheriff's office from May 1, 1889, to October 1, 1890, the report is as follows Arising from an imperfectness of the register in nee and incompetence of persons (gener ally prisoners) who kept the record pre vious to last June, errors of overcharge and undercharge of boarding prisoners, .amounting to a difference of $137.55, were found, which sum has been paid into f*« county treasury, and the re ceipt thereof shown to your committee, also that a clerical error of $100 oc cure'd irtfhe footing of the column of disbursements for the month of Sep tember, which we have seen brought forward into the current month's ac counts. These two corrections bring the office accounts to a just and proper settlement to the first day of October 1890. We suggest that there be kept in the jail two registers, one for the record of the receiving and one of the committal of prisoners. Thus, with ordmary care, errors in board of prisoners will not so THE LOS ANGELES HERALD: WEDNESDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 29, 1890. easily occur, and can be more readily guarded against in the future. The fee book shows good system and is well kept. From May 1,1889, to Sep tember 1, 1890, the receipts of the office were $46,437; the disbursements, $18, --277; payments to treasurer, $28,160.76. For the same period there has been paid by the county Board of prison ers, $14,158; court deputies, $6,650; sheriff's expenses, $1,723; sheriff's deputies' salaries, $30,197.59; jailors, deputy jailors and matrons, total, $52,729.40. Charges for stationery and such claims do not appear. The committee find that the expendi tures of the sheriff'B office have con formed to law and the requirements of the board of supervisors. NEW SUITS. Matters Which the Courts will Have To Settle. The San Jose Ranch company yester day brought suit against Lyman Allen and others to foreclose a mortgage for $4264 and interest. Also one against the same defendants for $3549.75. Reisch Bros, filed an affidavit for a writ of review from a judgment of P. E. King, justice of the peace sitting in the stead of W. C. Lockwood. William Mayes sues F. S. Elder to foreclose a mortgage for $1000. Nora McCartney sues W. H. Toler and others to foreclose a mortgage for $9156. A Statement Corrected. The following letter, copied from an evening paper, explains itself: Editors Evening Post I observe in your paper of yesterday an item to the effect that my brother, Isaias W. Hell man, president of the Nevada bank of San Francisco, is expected down here to take a hand in the fight for county treasurer. I beg leave to say that my brother has no such intention, and that he and the banking institution with which he is connected, are entirely out of politics and have no intention of tak ing a hand in bebalf of either party, any further than his own individual vote may be concerned. Herman W. Hellman. Los Angeles, Oct. 28th. Aluminum the Barest Metal. Aluminum is now the rarest metal in the world, although it is the most use ful, and the earth from which it can be reduced is found all over the globe—in Ohio as well as far off India. The largest piece of aluminum in the world is the cap of the Washington monument. This weighs 100 ounces. A larger piece of the metal has never been produced. Not many years ago a Washington chemist discovered a process for the production of tile metal. He thought it was perfect, and found no difficulty in getting $500,000 to back him up. A huge plant was erected in Tennessee and work was commenced, but no aluminum was produced. The professor's theory and experiments were all good enough, but they did not work upon a large scale. There have been dozens of like experiences, and thou- sands of men are today trying to dis- j cover the perfect method that will be j commercially practicable.—New York Telegram. Money Invested ln Electricity. Some recent authentic statistics show the extent to which the electric lighting Industry has grown in this country. The returns from about 1,400 central stations aggregate a capital stock of $119,000,000, MS this may be taken to be very near the amount actually invested, as the plants, owing to increases and recon structions, frequently represent much more than the nominal share capital. These stations have a capacity of 137,000 arc lights and 1,500,000 incandescente of 16 candle power, and the dynamos which supply current for these lights are oper ated by engines of 350,755 horse power.— New York Post. A Novel Focketbook. What is known as a commuter pocket book is very popular with the young women who live in the suburbs of Cin cinnati and ride on railway trains to and from the city on visiting and shop ping expeditions. This pocketbook is flat, roomy and rectangular, and in the front is set a tiny watch, the face of which shows through a hole in the leath er.

FINANCE AND TRADE. financial. EXCHANGE REVIEW. New York, October 28.—There was very little stock market today, outside of a few leaders, but the transactions in them, while not as large as usual of late, rolled up a respectable volume, of business, at steadily declining prices. Sugar was again a leader, and it was hammered down 4 per cent, at the lowest point, and served to give a drooping tendency to the general list. The street was full of a story that the Union Pacific was the aggressor in the late difficulty in the west, and the stock was knocked off 2% percent. None of the active shares displayed recuperative powers, and final prices in all cases are close to the lowest of the day. Sugar is down 4.\4, snd Union Pacific 2%. Governments—Firm.
