The peace Of Europe is again
threatened. The renewal Of war
between France and Germany is
only q question OF time. The
Church question foreshadows blood.
France long ago took upon herself
the championship of the Pope, and
Germany is making arupon papal
claims. The feeling III Germany is
antagonistic to the authority of the
Ultramontanes, or those who ad-
here to and support tine claims OF
the Roman Church proper, while
the feeling in France is directly op-
nasite to this. Therefore is it that
the French Bishops have issued
many pastoral letters containing
sentiments Of extreme hostility to
Germany Germany complains of
this, insisting that France, through
her Bishops, shall not interfere in
the controversy now waglng be-
tween that Empire and Rome, but
attend to her own business. Ger
man papers say that if the moral
influence Of France shall continue
to be exerted against Germany in
favor OF Rome, the peace of Europe
will be compromised.

An Woo was His Name.

Forsome time past Mr.. /. M. He'll
man, who lives on south Main street,
has been missing small sums of money
which chanced to be kept III the house.
He was unable to fix his suspicious on
anyone and was content to put up
with the annoyance for while, keep
ing a sharp lookout for the thief. Last
Monday, however, the matter was
brought to a crisis. On that day a
lady from Anaheim who was stopping
with Mr.. Hellman as his guest, missed
her pocket-book., Mr.. Hellman at
once reported the case to Officer Har-
ris, and the detective went on the
track of the missing treasure. He
suspicioned the Chinese servant,
named All Woo, and by his advice a
trap was set for the Celestial on We'd
nesday, by placing some marked coins
in drawer to which he had access.
In short time the coins We're missing
and All Woo was confronted by the
officer and accused of the theft. At
first he stoutly denied having taken
them, ybnt upon threats be-
ing made of locking him
up, he confessed the act and
showed where he had hid the money
The amount last stolen and the $1l
belonging to the lady were recovered
yesterday morning in the fume under
the house where it had been concealed.
The money previously stolen, amount
ing in alto nearly $50, has not been
found. Ah Woo was lodged in Jail,
where he will await the action of the

The Good lime Coming.

The municipal election now nearca at
hand is to, be fight on clearly defined
principles There. Is not a voter in
the city who does not correctly under
stand the conflict In all its bearings
and there are none so lily informed
that they do not know the struggle to
be one between the people and the
ring-a struggle which will determine
that either half a dozen. men shall
manage or smismanage the govern
mental affairs of this city, or that the
people-they who own the property
and furnish the revenue--shall direct
its expenditures and know how andf fer
what it is disbursed. 1t is but reason
able the residents of city should de-
sire that the majority of the voters
should guide and direct its municipal
government, and we presume Los An-
geles is the only city in the State
where the majority does not manifest
that desire by asserting their right to
the control which belongs to them.
The axiom that the world is governed
|. too much is aptly illustrated in the
case of Los Angeles, a place which
as town and city, has been controlled
by a. ring for nearly a quarter of a
century. Her streetsrand sidewalks
are the same to-day that they were a
decade ago; her vast revenue raised
from heavy taxation and the sale Of
her lands has melted away and left
neither improved streets nor public
buildings as remembrances of the
"dear departed" The people are
weary of this and propose to inaugu-
rate o new era in which visitors shall
mark the Improvement of the city
an improvement which will show the
people, and not q rapacious ring, con-
troll her municipal government.

done, the cars will run some distance
into Tchachape Pass and the stage
travel between San Fernando and the
end of the track will be reduced to a
short days drive. When the road has
been completed thus far 1t will not
stop. The visit of the officers named
to this part of the State cannot but be
fraught with beneficial results to the
people of Los Angeles. 1t impressed
them with the importance of closing
the gap between San Fernando and
Bakersfield as soon as possible, and
their report to the company will con-
tain such Arguments in favor of the
work as will be convincing and hasten

is here to take look at Southern
California. He made the trip to this
place i'll precisely seven days, and
such were the conveniences of travel
ing over the route that he felt himself
unable to realize that the distance is
anything but inconsiderable. His
name was widely circulated in the
newspapers a few years ago in connec-

The Promise Redeemed.

The promises of an immediate re-
sumption ofwork on the Southern Pa
cific Railroad made by Messrs. Crock
Err and COTTON when in this city a
few days ago, were not mere:t talk, as
many of our citizens seemed inclined
to think. They announced that. an
order had been issued for the building
forthwith of twenty miles more or
track from bakersfield in the direc-
tion OF Los Angeles. The correctness
Of this statement is nowverified. The
Courier, published at Bakersfield, in
its issue of the oath inst. saws the
wagons, scrapers and other road build
Ing implements that were sent away
a few weeks ago have been sent back
with additions, which indicate that
track laying is to be resumed with
more vigor than characterized the
work Of the Summer and Fall. The
additional twenty mile section is then

General COTTON expressed themselves
confident that between now and next
spring at least fifty miles of road
would be added to the track now ter
minating at Bakersfield. If this Is

Importance of an Immediate organiza-

ahead as rapidly as circumstances will

impressed runs within about eight

Liquor and Politics.

We are always pleased to give both
sides of question and as there has
been good deal said, in which there
has appeared no small amount of ad-
verse criticism on the action of the
German-American Club of this city
in expressing an opposition to the Lo-
cal Option law, we give the proceed
ings of the other side. On the 25th
instant the Executive Committee of
the State Temperance Alliance held a
meeting in San Francisco to determine
the policy of the State Alliance which
meets in that city on the 18th of next
month. The sentiments Of the Com
mittee were expressed in the follow
ing resolutions, which were unani-
mously adopted: ai
WHEREAS, The liquor interest OF this State
has declared its determination to prevent the
election of any man to office who Is not
pledged to defeat the liquor traffic; there
Resolved, That the time has now come and
the necessity exists for the formation OF a
temperance political party, to EN- brace all the
temperance elements in the State.
Ifesotced, That we recommend the formation
OF such political party at the coming meeting
of the State Alliance, called for 18th Novem-
ber, 1874, in this city,. - .-..-. .

The President called the meeting 10
order, stating its object to be to devise
measures for Inviting the Governor
and members of Congress of this State
! to visit our city and county
Judge Widney stated the object more
explicitly; he expressed hlmselif ia
favor. of extending the Invitation, and
thought such visit would be much
to the advantage of our city. This is
the most favorable time of year to re-
ceive such visitors, our public enter
prises being In an active condition

On motion of Judge Widney, it was
resolved that an invitation be extend

that they arrange between themselves
the most convenient time.
Mr.. Caswell, from the Committee on
Roads, reported in the matter of the
Panamint road that Mr.. Caswell had
returned without effecting his purpose
of defining the road projected, and the
matter was virtually at a stand-still.
On motion, the committee was dis
charged. Wf7AWn aa
1t was suggested that the annual
meeting of the Chamber would occur
on the first Monday in November for
the election of a new Board of Direct
.ors, but it was found upon investiga-
l tion that the time had already passed,
the regular day being in August, as
provided by the BYLAWS. CEtlH
On motion, it was ordered that as
there was no election of Directors held
at the time appointed by the By Laws,
the election take place at 1880 p. N. on

for eleven Directors. ~ Go
