The agony Is over, and Newton
Booth despite the Vaccinations Of the

ate. No effort has been spared by the
agents Of the monopolies to compass
his defeat. All sorts Of unholy alliances
have been proposed and every species
Of combination tried, but the will OF
the people has triumphed. We have
not the vote of the convention before
US, bnt infer from the dispatches that
have been received, that the Demo-
cratic members Of the Legislature ale
not entitled to r1uch credit for bring
ing about the grand result. Some Of
them have given Booth a. steady sup
port; but the great majority, unmind-
full Of the great responsibilities that
rest upon them have stood aloof. We
regret this, for on Democratic assist
snce in great part the Independents
must depend for success. The Demo-
cratic masses are heart and soul In
favor Of a thorough reform, and they
do not care particularly under what
flag such victory iswon. They desired
to elect Booth, because he was the rep
resentative of the reform movement,
and they do not relish the idea of hav-
ing their servants in the Legislature
labor to defeat theiYiwishes. sncitoali'

EDITOR HERALD = Having been
seriously annoyed by the presence Of
disreputable house adjoining my
residence, 1 had the woman arrested.
She was arraigned before Justice Traf-
ford. Various efforts were made by
the authorities to get me to withdraw
the prosecution. Refusing to do this,
she was allowed to plead guilty in my
absence, and was fined the nominal
sum of So. After her dischatge, the
woman invaded the premises where /
reside, and maliciously interfered with
my affairs, throwing a pot Of coffee over
a lot Of clothing that had Just been
ironed, abusing the woman who was
at work, and calling her obscene
names. Iapplied to the City Attorney
to have her arrested, but he told me
woman could not be punished, and re-
fused to'do anything. Ilwaflt to know
if anyone can set up a bagnio along
side Of a respectable dwelling in this
city, and be sustained by the city au-

explains it, by claiming that owing to
the use OF fat and oil In the furnaces

any way Of obtaining the necessary
Information, but her own citizens have
taken no pains whatever to furnish
such information, and they can hardly
complain Of us fof not doing 1t. The

publish them Us we get them. OF
course 1t is understood that all these

make themany less our shipments be-

The Guardian would exhibit more en-
terprise by publishing the shipments

at the Los Angeles press for not doing
1t, and we promise that paper that If

duce at our depot will take the necessa-

ARalIroad 70 Santa MonIe..

A gentleman of wealth and expe-
rlence in railroad building, in discuss
ing the necessity Of better means Of
communication with the sea, suggest
ed that good landing could be made
at Santa Monica, and when the ques-
tion Of expense was preached, pro
fessed his willingness to contract to
build narrow gauge railroad from
this city to Santa Monica and equip
1t with two engines, two passenger
and twenty freight cars, for $4,000,
provided the right Of way was furnish
ed to him without cost. 1t was at
once remarked by one Of the parties
to the discussion, that this would be
cheaper and better than any other
plan that had yet been presented; and
We would suggest to our friends at
Wilmington, that unless they are
willing to take hold In earnest and
bring rail and ship together at an
early date, this project will engage the
favorable attention Of our most ener-
getic men. We have not examined the
locality sufficiently to express a posi-
tive opinion on the desirability ofsuch
an arrangement, but we do know that
the best friends of Los Angeles are
fully determined that something shall
be quickly done to improve our harbor
facilities, and are disposed to- enter
tain the project. No doubt some one
will cry absurd, but while they are
waiting for light draught steamers to
be built, or for the Government to
dredge out the harbor at Wilmington,
somebody Of : practical turn will 90
to work and build the road, and then
somebody will md themselves out In

There are several establishments In New York

from two dollars and fifty cents to three dol
lars and fifty cents night. How did lhesa

uents that have been suggested for and
against The making OF such levy at the
present session have been fHlly explained.
The lucubrations of the House committee on
ways and means to-day resulted In the follow
ing report:
The committee on ways and means having
had under consideration concurrent resolu-
tion, adopted by both branches OF the General
Assembly, TO request the committee on ways
and means OF the House Of Representatives 10
report, at as early day as practicable, tax
bill for the fiscal year commencing November
l, 1873. and ending October 81, 1874, beg leave
to say that, In reference to the said matter,
the committee have conferred with the inan-
cial board, consisting OF his Excelency the
Governor, the State treasurer and the attor-
ney-general, aud the committee have adopted
the opinion, unanimously expressed by these
officers, that such levy should be deferred
until the next session of the General Assem-
bly,, for the following reasons:
l. That after making levy for the fiscal
wear commencing November l, 1872, and end
Ing October 81, 1873, 1t Is necessary to have
the report of the ccnptroller-general to be
made to the General Assembly In November
1873, showing how much money shall then
have been raised and paid out, and how much
due and unpaid.
Q. That as the constitution requires that the
General Assembly should provide for any de-
levy In any year, and as it cannot now be
known what such deficiency, If any. may be
tor the current fscal year, the committee
cannot at this time report tax bill 10 full
compliance with the organic law.
The committee, fer these reasons, and 10
view of the experience and workings OF the
plan heretofore practiced, of making tax levys
at random, in advance of the comptroller's
report, and, therefore, Without reliable data
So to how much money would be required to
be raised, would hereby respectfully ask for
an expression of the sense OF the House for
their guidance in the premises, by which ex-
preston, of course, the committee will be
governed.
These reasons, howaver, did not appear to
appeal forcibly 10 the good sense of the
House, and the committee was ordered to re-
port tax bill forthwith. PICKET.
