EXIT REFORM.

1t is generally conceded, even by
some Of those who came here at the
beginning of th session flushed with
the spirit of reform, that his is the
last of the Reform Assembly. The
next session will either be Democrat
&c or Republican, aud ten chances to
one il vii be the latter. The people
must be convinced that Reform a.
expounded by the leaders in the
Assembly is q humbug. and those
who anchor their hopes 10 that party
must now see that they have mis-
placed their confidence.

A Suggestion.

EDITOR HERALD: Will you per-
nit me to add one to the many sug-
gestions that have appeared from time
to time in the columns of your jour-
nal calculated to increase the beauty
of our city, and add to the convent
ence of pleasure of our own citizens
and to the many attractions for visi-
itors from abroad? We ought by all
means to name one good drive-not a
windy, dusty, magnificent fraud like
the drive to the Cliff House, or to the
(Seligman's) Golden Gate Park, San
Francisco, but Il good square honest
macadamized road--(say Main street,
from the initial point, the Plaza,
City Park, City Gardens-or what
ever the little spot of arid desert oppo-
site the Pico House might be called)
that could be built and kept sprinkled
at cost insignificant as compared
to the benefits resulting from the i'm
provement. Strangers who are en-
thusiastic over our unequaled climate
and our matchless natural advanta-
ges, invariably express surprise that
we have no we'll graded streets and no
good drives. New Orleans has a very
magnificent dustless drive of fifteen
miles on the shell road to the Lake
Ponchetrain; Boston, her elegant
drive to Brighten and RoXbury;
Brooklyn, IN. " magnificent drive
of ten miles to Carey Island; and in
fact prominent feature, and one of
the most attractive to strangers, of
every considerable city, is good ma
cadamized road to some point outside
the suburbs. Sewerage is difficult
problem with us here, but it is GER
tainly feesible, and will prove profita-
BILE to property-holders and business
men generally in Los Angeles, to
have our streets improved, and as q
beginning, to have Main street prop
erly graded and macadamized to
Washington Gardens. This is mat
ter in which the property owners, es-
pecially the owners of suburban resi-
dences along the line of the proposed
improvement, who are now annoyed
by the dust, as well as livery men,
hotel proprietors and in fact every one
here is interested, and hope my sug-
gestion will be responded to by some
one who may have some definite and
practicable plan to propose. b.

On THE BATTLE FIELD.-The Re

met In political conflict on the Marion
County battle field on the 18th. Of
October, 1874. Sampson, the mighty,
carried the Congressional banner,
Winslow the Judicial, and Hamrick
the banner bearing the device of the
Clerks seal, at the head Of the Repub.
lican army. Gates, Anderson and
Shaw led the opposing hosts.
Now happily the roar of political ar
tillery Is hushed. Peace once more
smiles upon the scene of the conflict,
and the allurements Of commerce
invite the participants to a friendly
meeting upon the same field, under
the white banner of peace, to attend
the grand sale of Pianos, Organs, Mel.

and Musical Merchandise of all kinds,
