Too MUCH TEMPERANCE.--Our friends !.
have frequently cautioned US against too much q
temperance in the WORLD, and our enemies ]
boastfilly proclaim that we will not last . year
in the course we are pursuing, as the people Of
idaho will not support . temperance paper.
We are grateful toOur frieads for their we'll,
meant caution, and are aware that their fears
are not without foundation. We have respect,
foo, for the opinions OF our enemies, and know
that they are not altogether chimerical. But
TO all we will say: The WORLD is not tenn.
perance paper. It treats upon all subjects, and
upon all subjects but that of religion, which is
not permitted to be canvassed, it takes the side
it believes to be right, and maintains it because
it believes it to be right It gives all of the
local news it can procure; the latest reliable
news from abroad; readable selections from
the best current publications scientific liter
airy, witty, imaginative whatever it thinks will
instruct or please, and comprises in its edito-
rial department q greater variety of subjects
each week than any paper of its size. While
the WORLD is not temperance paper, how
ever, it's editor will not debase himself by be-
coming the advocate of that he knows to be
wrong and an inestimable curse; but he would
like to publish temperance paper, and would
do so ii he believed it would be supported. The
subject of temperance is SO palpably right and
its practice SO clearly beneficial to the individ-
ual and to society, that we really do not know
of any argument possibly adducible against it;
if any of our readers know Of any, the columns
of the WORLD are open for their publication
as they are for the publication of any opinion
Of any individual, which is decently expressed;
but we will never give place in the columns Of
the WORLD to anything indecent or immoral,
if we know it. Editorial matter in any uews-
paper is simply the opinion of the editor, which
as citizen, he has, or should have. an undoubt-
ed right TO express, especially when he is will
ling, as we have ever been, to grant like
privilege to others; and as there is no law re-
quirins any of US to accept or reject an opin-
ion because another accepts or rejects it, there
can be no valid reason urged, as we think,
against the fullest and freest discussion-a
thing we have always practiced and always
shall. But the columns of our paper will show
that, Notwithstanding our fanaticism on the
subject Of temperance, we have not forgotten
other subjects, nor neglected them. We do
not wish to be understood as apologising for
advocating temperance. The right needs no
| apology and we shall offer none.

The Assessment Roll for the Yoas is7a.

EDITOR HERALD: A long column of
figures presents nothing very attract
i've; it is eminently suggestive of un-
liquidated grocer's bills, and generally
gets the go-by. But in leisure mo-
ment to-day my eyes accidentally fell
upon the Assessment Roll of Los An
geles county for the year 1874, and
noted some things there that are
rather startling to our pride as citi-
zen of the empire county of the South.
At first we were disposed to attribute
it to typographical error, but on ex-
amining other papers the facts stood
out with redoubled force.
shall not attempt to analyZe the
whole of the Assessors report, but
confine myself to one or two items. Is
it possible that this county produces
but 719 tons of grain of all sorts, worth
but $7,l95? Or that l, ,14l tons is the
extent of the hay product in this
county? Think for a moment, reader,
of our broad fields! Or that we have
but seventeen miles of irrigating
bitches, valued at the magnificent
sum of two thousand dollars. To bal
ance all this, however, we have very
fiattering showing in the dog line.
The number given is 1901, and the
value $6,610-a little less than the
whole grain crop! have no objec-
ton to the value placed on these ours,
but am inclined to think the number
greatly underrated. But have no
time to pursue the subject farther, my
only object being merely to call your
attention to the matter. 1E

Oil Matters.

The. San, Fernando Oil-well Boring
Company had meeting yesterday in
this city. The Secretary's report
showed an expenditure, up to the
present time, of seventeen hundred
dollars. Mr.. Spangler, the Superin-
tendent of the we'll; was present and
reported that the we'll was ninety-four
feet deep, with considerable oil running
into it; that they drilled seven to nine
feet per day and that everything was
in perfect order, and working like a
charm. When we consider the work
that has been done, and the material
on hand, we must commend this Com
pany for economy. Fifteen hundred
dollars, the amount paid for an en-
gine and set of tools is said to be very
cheap. This does not include the der
rick, freight, ana labor of putting the
machines up. Success to the Well
boring Company may they strike
it big !

The first communication in order was by Prof.
Henry on the Recent Earthquakes in North Caro-
lima. At the conclusion of his remarks, the Hon.
T. L. Kliugman was introduced. and stated that he
had for 80 wears ndustriously collected all nforma
tion possible relative to the shocks felt throughout
the six western counties of North Carolina. The
first on record occurred in 1911 or 1872 and similar
ones had been experienced i'll some place other
every two or three years since that date covering
country about 80 miles in extent north and south
aud 30 miles east and west The principal shocks
that he had witnessed or knew of definitely were
those of ISL 1920 1874 1916, 1880, 1855. 1872 aud
1874.
The next paper was read by Prof Powell of the

yice-Presdent Psof Hilyard in the chair. The first
communication was by Prof F. W. Clark of Howard
University on Atomic Heats He stated that having
had occasion to compile table of atomic specific
heats for nearly 400 bodies he had been led to
Inc the agreement of observation with the law of
Dulong and Petit He found that the slight differ
ences from the simple law follow the rule that the
atomic heats vary as the atomic weights. He ex-
planned this as depending the fact that the spe-
cifc heats could have temperatures removed at va
rious distances from the melting points of the
substances in question. and showed that much
better agreement would be found if the determina-
tons referred to the bodies under similar circum-
stances.
Prof. Stephen Alexander of Princeton College
presented communication on the Zodiacal Light |;
this was read by Prot. j. E. Hilgard. Dr. L. ID. Gale
