Horse Railroad-Extension.

We publish this morning the ordi-
nance passed by the City Council,
granting a franchise to the Spring
and Sixth st, Railroad,t to extend their
road from its present northern ter
minus to the new depot grounds. The
limits of the franchise require the ex-
tension of the line within six months,
and we are informed by Judge Wild
ney, the superintendent, that it will
be completed and in running order
much sooner than the time prescribed.
The new portion of the road is to be
planked throughout and laid on level
with the street grade so that it will
offer the least possible inconvenience
to teams. The entire road is to be OPP
Grated as one line with a single fare
collectable for the whole distance.
This is another valuable improve
ment for our city for which the enter
prising managers of the Spring and
Sixth Street Railroad should receive
the hearty thanks of all who are inter-
ested in the welfare of Los Angeles.

The Territories.

Messrs. Bush and Hart start from
Walla Walla for California in a few
days with large band of fine draught
horses.
A Boise City hoodlum evidently
thinks of starting a newspaper. He
was caught stealing type from the
Statesman office.
On Tuesday, of last week, Jack
Frost very gently nipped the foliage of
the sweet potato vine, for the people
in Boise valley.
The recently discovered mines on
the Columbia amount to nothing, and
their richness only exists in the i'm =
agination of the parties who started
the report.
Virginia City, Nevada, is hard up
for magistrates. Those who are not
at the Geysers are prospecting for
gold mines, and so the criminals have
good time.
There is much anxiety felt in Santa
FIe, New Mexico, on account of the
prolonged drought. Crops are seri-
ously affected by it; the corn is sadly
in need of rain, there not being at
present sufficient water in the river
for irrigation.
Rev. Father Chirause has been ap-
pointed by the Government special
agent for five Indian reservations,
namely, Lummi, Swinomish, Port
Madison, Tulalip, and Black River.
There are 5000 Indians on these reser-
vations all of whom are Catholics.
The headquarters. of Father Chirause
will be at Tulalip, where there are
schools for both boys and girls, and
of about eighty pupils. In conse-
quence of the four reservations named
above being placed under the same ad-
ministration as that of Tulalip, the
Government has increased the salary
of Father Chirause from that of $1,000
to ST 800 a year.

A Good Movement.

The meeting held by our German
citizens at Turn-Verein Hall last Sun
day evening, resulted in the perfection
of an organization which, if its princi-
piles are adhered to as established, will
accomplish much good for the city.
The name, decentralization Elect
i've Union," was adopted, and the OBJ
jects of the organization set forth in the
following resolution, which received
unanimous sanctions:
Resolved, That we will support only
good and honorable citizens for office
at the coming municipal election,
without distinction of political differ
enceS. .a
The officers Of the Union are as fol-
lows: President, c. G. Lips; Vice
President, T.. Lichtenberger, and Sec
retary Isaac Cohn. A committee was
appoint ed consisting of b. Marxsen,
DR.. Jos. Kurtz and H. Fleishman, with
instructions as stated, "to find out,
and, if possible, to persuade good citi-
zens to run for office at the coming
election.n Another committee was
appointed consisting Of G. G. Lips and
Emil Harris, to see that full registry
ofvoters is secured, and if any Germans
have not become citizens, provided
they are entitled to the rights of citi-
zenship to assist them in procuring
their naturalization papers. The
union will hold another meeting at
Turn-Verein Hall on the 9th of this
month,

no benefit from the engine and would
object to the peoples money being
squandered for that purpose. The late
fires have fully demonstrated the fact
that our single steamer is not sufficient
to cope successfully with the "devour-
ing element" The firemen do the
best they can, but the best is not suffi-
cient. Had the city been provided
with a Babcock Engine on Sunday
night, the valuable time lost in get
ting water for the steamer would have
been saved, and perhaps some thous-
ands of dollars to the owners of the
property. Two destructive fires have
occurred within the past three
months, and both have resulted in
severe loss, from the fact that the city
is without the proper means to handle
them. The present Council will soon
retire from office; let them do some
thing which will rebound to their
credit as watchful guardians of the
public veal, and provide us with an
other engine. 1t will certainly be of
quite as much benefit as the grading
of our streets, and the money could
not be laid out to better advantage or
in a way which would meet with the
more universal approval Of those who
pay the taxes.

FREE MEXICO.
CELEBRATION BY OUR MEXICAN CITI-
zENS OF THE ANNIVERSARY OF
THEIR RELEASE FROM THE RULE
OF SPAIN.


At IL o'clock last night our Mexican
| citizens commenced the celebration of
| the day held in fondest remembrance
| by them as the date from which their
first political freedom commenced
sixty-four years ago. The ceremony Y
opened at the Plaza with the hosting
of Mexican and American flags and
the firing of salutes, under the direc-
ton of the Junta Patriotica. THIS was
done at IL o'clock, to commemorate
the hour of the day when the first flag
of freedom was raised by the revered
Priest, Hidalgo, who melted the revolt
against the rule of Spain over her
Mexican province on the 18th day of
September, 1910. At that time Spain
was engaged in severe contest with
France, and had more than her hands
full to attend to her little affair across
the water. Still, the coveted freedom
of the Mexican Nation was not ac-
quired by bloodless contest, and not
until the lapse of fourteen years was
her independence assured.
The part of the Priest Hidalgo was
represented last night by Sef1Or Pio-
quinto Davila, who upon the raising
of the flag, gave the first shout for free
doom. After the acclamations and
salutes had passed, procession was
formed by the Marshal in the follow
ing order:
1st. Band.
I'd. Rifleros de Los Angeles.
Sd. Mexican and American flags
\, h. Is,x, = TI@e
4th. Members of the Junta Patriot
lea.
5th. Car representing America.
9th. Mexican citizens and those in
sympathy with the cause.
18th. Triumphal car.
Sth. Citizens on horseback
The order of march was taken up as
follows: From the Plaza down Main
street to First; thence on First to Los
Angeles street; up Los Angeles to
Arcadia street, and thence 10 Main
street and the Plaza. Starting again
from the Plaza, up Main to Marches
sault street: thence to Eternity street;
thence to High street, and back to
the Plaza where the assemblage dis
persed.
The celebration will he continued
to-day, to commemorate the declara-
ton of Independence which was made
on the 10th day of September, follow
ing the raising of the flag by Hidalgo
At 4 o'clock this afternoon, the pro-
cession will reform the same as that
of last night, taking up the same line
Of march. At $50 in the evening, the
celebrators will assemble at Stearns'
Hall, where they will listen to ad-
dresses by f. p. Ramirez, the orator
of the day, and other prominent citi-
zens. After the addresses, there will
be grand ball, which will
be the affair of the season, in
social point, for our Mexican citizens
and their guests; and thus will close
with the good will and sympathy of
all who revere freedom and free peo-
pie, the celebration of Mexico's Fourth
of july.

TO A SUCKING PIG.
ny THE LATE J. BARBER.

Thou martyred youngling of the porclne race,
so pale so pure, so full of placid grace
why, by that cut-throat of creation, man,
Was thy existence "dwindled to span 2"
Alas! he knew thee succulent and sweet,
Thy fat am brosial and thy lean treat,
And when sweet mercy whispered let him
grow"
The savage appetite of man said mo"
o, luscious creature, e'en while PHYS tear
Bedims the eye, the thought OF such rich
cheer 80
Brings (by what process let wise causists telD
A gush of water TO my mouth as well!
1 see thee dished-thy blond complexion
turned
To deepest am ber-fairly crlsped-not burned
The cracking crest, through each crevasse Is
seen
Oozing with richness, tenderest gclatine!
Nor know | which most stirs the plates lust
The unctious lining or the umbered crust;
But with the twain with sauce and dressings
rare)
Few dainties known to epicures compare.
All! infant pig, so martyr-like and still,
Up from the vacuum thou'rt ordained to NIL
There comes, despite thy mournful fate, a
voice
That bids me cook thee, eat thee and rejoice.

EDITOR HERALD: "G," in O short
article under the head of "Spiritual-
ism," seems to take it for granted that
" b. l.. p" in his investigations into
spirit phenomena, did really discover
the proof of mans immortality. Now,
as "B. L. P" has failed to give us
anything but his ipSi dirit in support
Of his grand discovery, wouldn't it be
we'll enough for "G." to be less exul-
tant and less lavish of admiration un-
til "B. L. P" actually produces for
public inspection that mysterious
key" by the aid of which he claims
to have discovered this, the greatest of
problems We are all interested.
The world has been exercised with
this question for centuries, and cer-
tainly &C b. L. p" will do us the kind
ness to hand out the key. Yours,

Our Canned Fruit East.

Conversing, q few days ago, says the
San Francisco Chronicle, with gen.
tleman just from Boston, we alluded
to the subject of California dried and
canned fruits East. He remarked that
our canned fruits were considered a
great rarity in Boston, and that he
had paid seventy-five cents can for
quart cans. And with this knowledge
before us, that we can find an anxious
market for every can of fruit we send
East, we continue to sell for little or
nothing, cash in hand on delivery,
rather than to put up our fruit and
wait few months that will show re-
turns three times the retail price re-
ceived here. We shall be glad when
the day comes that California fruit
growers will have awakened to their
true interests in this matter.
Apropos of the above, have heard
it asked if it was probable that the
owners of the Alden process would be
likely to receive as payment for the
drying of fruits, the product. This
would enable some to save their fruits
that cannot sell at paying prices, and
thus cause many to bring forward
fruits that would not otherwise.
