TRUTH STINGS.

A. c. Buell., correspondent of the St
Louis Republican and the Detroit Free
Press, has been forbidden the privilege
of entering the reporters gallery of the
Senate. The reason is, that Buell. said
Chandler, from Michigan, was drunk.
The charge was true, and Buell. would
not retract it, so Chandler gets even by
having the privilege of using the report
er's gallery drawn from Buell.. The only
conclusion 10 be drawn from all this is
that it is not crime for Senators to get
drunk, but shocking offense for any
one to say so.

The Los Angeles Express says that the
Wolfskil vineyard, one of the best in the
county, has been torn up. 1t is said that
on account Of the low price of grapes, the
owners of this vineyard have been losing
at the rate of $4,000 year. Other not.
able vineyards have yielded no profit to
the owners. Grapes sold last year in
that country from so cents to IS cents
per hundred pounds "a price which
barely covered the cost of production
orange growing has been such success
IN Los Angeles county that VINEYARD
owners have been turning their attention
10 oranges, and are willing to tear out
'heir old vines to make loom for that
purpose.

Governor Booth, of Cal
ifornia, has proved true to the pledge he
made to the people of California, that he
would resist the devouring railroad mo-
nopoly. He shows this by the veto Of
the San Francisco Harbor Commissioner
bill, which we are glad to see was sus-
tanned by the Senate. The bill was a
most impudent attempt to wrest the
control of San Francisco water front
from the people and give it to their mos,
dangerous enemy the railroad. We con.
graduate the people Of San Francisco on
their victory.

THE San Francisco Bulletin SAYS, and
with reason, that it is no good sign to see
Democrats and Republicans banded to.
gether to fasten the chains of monopoly
on the people of California. The Bull
letin is right; it is not only not good
sign, but an evil one. In Washington,
rs we remarked the other day, there
seems to be a similar alliance between
the Grant Republicans and the Demo-
Gratis. Both these coalitions are simply
held together by the cohering tie of
plumber; nothing else in the world. 1t
Is Just fight for booty, present and to
come. Viewing this massing Of the forces
of corruption, would it not be well for
the honest men of all parties to get in
harness and see if they cannot give these
monopolists, ring-men and lobbyists a
lesson they will not forget?
