STOCKTON, Nov. IS.
At the Gar,lenrace course in tr0tting
yesterday mile heats . in 5, there were
three cntries--Hazard, Culver and
Snowstorm. The race was closely con-
tested, and considerable money staked.
Culver won the frs, two heats when
the hackers of Hazard demanded 4
new driver, and the third and fourth
heats were won by Hazard. Owing to
the darkness, the race was postponed
until to-day. This afternoon horses
got the word. Culver was in the lead
all around, but was closely pressed on
the homo stretch by Hazard, when
SnowStorm induleed in a run, passed
Hazard, running over his leg, and
pocketing him, thus giving Culver the
heat. As Snowstorm passed hejudges'
stand, his driver, Charley Blood, was
greeted with curses and q shower of
missiles, and the driver of Hazard,
without dismounting from his sullley,
commenced vigorous chastisement
with a horsewhip. Snowstorm was run
like quarter horse to avoid this pun
ishment, but Hazards driver followed
him to the quarter pole, plying the
whip over face, head and shoulders
without mercy, the crowd crying out
Kill himl" "Give it to him." etc.
The judges gave the heat, race and
money to Culver, and severely rcpri-
manded the driver Of Snowstorm and
ruled him off the track for years.

houses Wantes,

One of the most pressing demands
Of the times in this city, is for good
and comfortable dwellings, buildings
that while they arc suitable for an orr
dlnary family, are. yet Of moderate
cost, and can be rented low. There
are q great many eastern people IN
town and more are coming. Ii they
can be induced to stay here a few
months, many of them will remain
permanently. But they are accus-
toned to comfortable houses, and un-
less such can be had at reasonable
figures, they are apt to drift away from
us before they have staid long enough
to fully appreciate the beauties OF our
climate, and the peculiar excellencies
of Los Angeles as place Of residence.
Private capital and enterprise do not
seem adequate to supplying the de-
mand and We suggest that the only
way to speedily solve the problem, is
to form Building Association with
sufficient capital s1put upa number
of neat and tasty cottages. II some OF
our largest real estate owners would
make q move in this direction, We be-
lieve they could enlist the aid OF capi-
tai, and in very short time could
have fifty or a hundred buildings ready
for occupation, every one Of which
conld be rented at once at remunerative
rates, or sold at handsome advance
upon cost. II such an enterprise were
once started we have no doubt that
much of the stock would be taken by
our mechanics to be paid In labor, and
that many of them would in this way
secure n home and become permanent
ly identified with the place. Dealers
in lumber and other materials would
also be interested, and if our own citi-
zens would take hold and show their
faith in the future of our city, eastern
capital could be secured 10 aid in ex-
tending the enterprise. An energetic
move in this direction would very
shortly work marked improvement
in the appearance of the place, and
while ii would reduce the cost Of living,
itwould enhance the value ofreal estate
and increase our population. Wo hope
that those interested in the continued
prosperity of the town will give the
subject their earnest attention, and
either in this manner, or by some
other means remove what is very
serious obstacle to the progress Of Los
Angeles. EMMA sarfa @

THE SCHEME oE Mr.. SpINNER.-The
Cincinnati Times, speaking ofthe proposition
for the issue Of 3.65 convertible bonds,
says:
Mr.. Spinner is not alone in his idea,
having, it is believed, the President on
his side, most, if not all of the Cabinet GER
tainly Mr.. Richardson, together with the AS
sistant Secretary and the Controller OF he
Currency. Most of the Senate Finance
Committee also favor an nterconVer'ipie

that the main opposition in Congress will
come from the national bank interest.

The Boston Journal gives an account Of
the present condition of the Lawrence Mills.
The Everett Mill has reduced the working
time to eight hours per day: The Pacific
Mills are in full operation, but the manage
ment have under consideration the reduction
of wages or the reduction of hours of labor.
1t is thought no necessity will arise to cause
reduction of the number of workmen. The
Atlantic Mills arc at work on their basis for
the Winter-four days each week, and ten
hours per day-and if any change occurs it
will probably be for increased rather than de,
creased production. The Washington and
Pemberton Mills are in full operation. The
Duck Mills are obliged to run four nights
each week to meet the demand tor their
goods. The Lawrence Mill has made slight
reduction in the hours Of labor. wages
have been reduced in but one mil, though
how soon it may occur in other mills is not
known. The demand for the products OF
the mills is at the present time very small,
consequently manufactured stock is accumu'
| lating.

BAD FOR THE LAwYERs.-Quite num-
Der of the subordinate oranges of Iowa have
incorporated into-their constitutions clause
binding members, in cases where differences
occur between them, to submit in all cases
to the decision of arbitrators This they
rigidly adhere to, and lawsuits are becoming
things almost unknown, and the lawyers and
courts find little to do. A member who re-
fuses to abide by the pledge he takes in this
regard when he signs the. constitution, is
said to have greater regard for law than justice
and is subject for grange discipline, even
to expulsion. This feature of grange man
agement cannot be too highly extolled nor
too widely adopted among the subordinates.
If we could get at the expenses of litigation
among farmers-the lawyers and court fees,
the time squandered. to say nothing of the
i'll feeling and permanent enmity resulting
in the rupture of social intercourse, which
is so palpably essential to growth in morals
and happiness-we have no doubt it will be
found to go long way towards paying the
farm taxes Of every community. Let the
example presented by our Iowa friends
spread, not only among Patrons, but among
all organizations of farmers.
