Fares and Freiehts.

Twins bill to regulate fares and
freights will come up for discussion
next Monday. In the meantime, as
we predicted, opposition is developing.
The Bulletin shows that the rates for
shipping grain for distances of one
hundred miles and under are much
higher than those contemplated by
Freeman's bill, and also that the great
bulk of the grain shipped by rail is
raised within that distance of San
Francisco. The Union opens fire on
the substitute, and particularly calls
attention to the Objectionable provis-
ion in reference to the transferring Of
passenger tickets. The railroad organs
are mum, probably because they have
been taken by surprise, and want a
little time to consider how to attack
the strange monster. AS they are OPP
posed, however, to the principle of
legislative control of railroads, they
may be expected to fight as soon as
they find out just how the old thing is
going to work. So far as this section
of the State is concerned we feel
that our best security for cheap
freights depends on the ease and
readiness with which we have access
to the sea, and believe that the re-
moval of the bar at Wilmington and
the building of narrow-gauge road to
"Shoo-Fly," both being within the
range of early probabilities, will do
more to regulate fares and freights
than all the legislation of whole
Winters session. Still we shall look
with interest on the struggle, hoping
that solution of the difficult problem
may be arrived at which will relieve
the people Of the State from oppressive
charges, and yet encourage the build
ing of the system of railroads that is
to make Los Angeles the great city of
the Southern Coast.

The Panama Steamers.

The communication from Edward
Higgins, the General Agent of the Pa
cific Mail Line, printed in the pro-
ceedings of the Chamber Of Commerce,
while not entirely conclusive is mat
ter of congratulation, for the hopes it
holds out of the final accomplishment
of q much desired end. Direct COM
munication with New York is of great
Importance to this section of the State,
and everything that our city can do to
facilitate such communication will
tend to advance it on the road to pros
perity. AS soon as we can count with
certainty Oil the safe and easy access
of the vessels of the Pacific Mail Line
to the harbor of Wilmington, the
trade already existing with the East
ern cities will increase to important
proportions. Our wool and wine will
nearly all take that route to market,
and quantities of merchandise that
now come by ayzof San Francisco
will be shipped direct to our own port.

A Late Discovery at Pompeii.

The form of another human body
which has been impressed on the ashes
of Pompeii has been preserved in plas-
ter of Paris within the last few days.
The cast is said to be extremely beau
tiful and far superior to any which
have heretofore been taken. The head
is a portrait; the nose is long and de-
cidedly aqualine; the lips full and
half open, the ears enormously large.
There Is no muscular contraction de-
noting a violent death; the whole per-
son, which is in the pose of one who
sleeps placid sleep, shows that the
unhappy citizen of Pompeii died of
asphyxia. He lies on his left side,
resting his head on the right hand,
while the other arm, bent under the
breast, is almost concealed; the legs
are drawn up unequally, the left more
than the right, which is stretched out
naturally. Around the loins was a
linen covering, which concealed a
small portion of the legs; the breast
was naked, without the shirt, unless
there be some appearance of one under
the left arm-pit; but the feet were
naked, and these have been cast mag
nificently. 1t is worthy of note that
this body was found at remarkable
hight, almost on level of the second
story, and near it were a few pieces of
money in bronze and silver. Thus an
other interesting addition is made TO
the cast of human forms now in the
museum. The first experiment of the
kind was made "a long time ago" by
COmmandatOre EIOrelli now directnr
of the National Museum. 1t created
a great sensation at the time, as we'll
it might, for 1t brought to light, If not
to life, some of the victims of that
great eruption which buried whole
city beneath its ashes, and presented
us with q type Of the race who once
peopled the streets Of that now silent
city, London Athonaeum.

THE value of the United States Sig
nal Service has received substantial
demonstration at Cairo, Illinois. A
destructive storm swept over that To-
cality day before yesterday, unroofing
buildings and destroying property.
The steamboat men, however, warned
by means of the Signal Service, were
prepared forit and preserved their frail

THERE seems to be no disposition
on the part of Congress to do anything
for the relief of the Mission Indians.
The Senate Committee on Indian AT.
fairs have asked to be discharged from
further consideration of the matter,
and the request has been granted. If
the Mission Indians had only proven
themselves as troublesome as the
Apaches they might expect some
thing, but having always behaved
themselves, their claims are dismissed
without consideration.

4 8 THE CHARMING CHARAC-
IA ter of Southern California, and more
especially that most favored section called
Santa Barbara, becomes known to the world,
1t is not surprising that a widespread and
growing interest In this region should be
awakened. 1t is the constant aim Ofthe PRESS
to furnish perfectly reliable information on al |
points of interest to tOurixs, invalids and
hOme-seekers, which we are now able to do
with greatly increased facilities.
While the PRESS seeks to promote the
prosperity OF all Southern California by all le-
Ultimate and honorable methods, 1t Is more
directly interested in the growth and coming
greatness OF Santa Barbara. The unequaled
loneliness OF the climate, its almost incredible
healthfulness, the beauty of the scenery, the
wondrous variety and fertility Of the soil, the
almost unlimited range of products which
flourish there without irrigation. will be
known from time to time by facts which can
not be controverted, in the columns of the
PRESS. Any intelligent person can become
familiar with this part of the State by reading

EiTnER GRANT, lIELMBoLp, OR \ CIR-
CUs-The Washington correspondent Of
the Chicago Times, of the 18th in
slant, says Tho Presidents new team
composed of four handsome bays, with
gold-trimmed harness, made it's second APP
pearancc on the avenue this afternoon.
Very wide and very white rcins controlled
them, and the team surpasses anything OF
the kind ever seen here. About the only
thing that ever came up TO il in style was
Buchu Hembolds turnout with gold-trim-
med harness also, which was here four OF
five years ago. The horses Of the Presi-
dents fourth hand are all superior, aud it
is said the team can get over the turf at a
three-minate gait Two of the horses, the
leaders, have done better than this on the
private half-mile track south Of the Exec
utiye Mansion, on the White House lot
on more than one occasion, and once, at
least, President Grant himself held the
ribbons.

The HudsOn's Bay Company.

The Hudson's Bay Company, one ofthe
oldest of stock corporations, will shortly
surrender its title to lands and vested
powers, all the arrangements for the
transfer having been made. II will still
retain, however, 10000 acres of the best
lands in British America, besides claims
upon onc-twenticth of the remainder. In
return for the surrender of its other prop
crty and rights, it will receive 81 500 900
in gold from the Dominion of Canada.
The company was organized more than
two hundred years ago, and in 1873
declared its first dividend. Its first char
ter gave the company the exclusive
privilege Establishing trading factories
Grading posts) ON the Hudson's bay and
its tributary rivers. a new charter gave
it the exclusive right to trade in nearly
the whole of British America from 1888 to
1859. The Company also leased large
part Of Russian America. The capital of
the Company in 1888 was about $4,000
900, and was held by about 25O stockhold

The stock has been sold for four hun

iers. In Xenia, Springfield aud Jcffer-
sonyille strongly offensive warfare was
carried on against the saloons. In Xenia.
the women also visited disreputable
house where liquors were sold, and knelt
in prayer with the proprietresj, and indue-
ed her to sign the pledge not to sell any
more liquor. Reports from fourteen towns
and villages in Ohio show that so out of
40 liquor saloons have been closed since
the beginning of the movement. In five
OF these places all the bars have been clos
ed. At West jefferson two saloons out
of six have been closed as the result of five
days operations. At Lancaster, women
from Logan have been leading in the
work, and all the saloons have been closed.
Operations have begun Mt Canton, South
Charleston aud Greenville. In some pla-
ees, however, the saloon keepers show fight
against the movement. At Macarthur
" the people are divided, and one saloon
keeper has engaged band of music to
play while the women are praying about
his premises. At Shelby one hundred
ladies were grossly insulted on the street
by saloon keeper At New Holland.
the women were assaulted by liquor sell
or with drawn poker but the man was
arrested.
The anti-liquor agitation has broken ont
in New York State. The women of Wat
kins, in Schuyler county are reported to
have called in body on Hatch, drug.
gist and saloon keeper, and requested him
to sell no more "fire-water. The Presi-
dent of the New York Union Temperance
Prayer meeting gives notice of similar
movement in New York city.
Similar movements are being made in
the New England States; also in Penn
sylyania, New Jersey and in some of the
Northwestern States.
The womeus temperance movement
continued vigorously at Jelfersonyille, Ind
on Tuesday and Wednesday, devotional
exercises being held-inside such saloons
as were open, and in front of such as were
found closed. No disturbance occurred,
but none of the saloon.keepcrs were CON
quercd The movement in Columbus,
Ohio, has been virtually failure,
