Briqandaqe in America.

Probably Mexico has from time to
time been infested with the worst set
of robbers of any country under the
sun, for they never scruple to shoot
and kill when they betake themselves
to the road, and the killing generally
precedes the robbing, But in daring,
audacious ventures of this kind
this country bids fair to surpass
anything that has ever transpired
either in Italy or Mexico. The masked
robbing in the vicinity of New York
city; the robbery of two railway trains,
one some time ago in Iowa, and the
other only few days since in Mis-
souri,, in boldness and reckless audaci-
ty surpass anything of which we have
ever read. That train Of cars should
be stopped in broad daylight and its
passengers robbed of their money,
jewelry and watches seems almost in
credible! The postoffice department
has been recently engaged in the vain
effort to ferret out an audaciOus rob-
berry which was perpetrated on the
mails and passengers in the stages
running between Shreveport and Mon
roe, Louisiana, which occurred on the
9Th of January. The stages running
each way were stopped at point in
the road where they met, and the pas
sengers and the mail bags were plucked
as scientifically as the job could have
been done by the mountain brigands
of Italy. Each passenger was allowed
to retain SIS, and his revolvers were
purchased at $40 piece, and paid for
with their own money. In these af-
fairs the robbers seem to have peculiar
advantages, for they can travel over
the routes and learn everything neces-
sary to their purposes; and select such
time and occasion as best suit their
purposes, and the passengers are en-
tirely at their mercy.
Notwithstanding this species of rob-
berry has frightfully increased within
a few months, little has been accom-
plished in the way of bringing the vii
famous depredators to justice. We
seem to be fast approaching time
when men who travel must not only go
heavily armed for their own prOtec-
ton, but must also have some kind of
organization and exercise military
vigilance lest they be bounced upon
and robbed at any obscure place or
turn Of the road. Some means ought
to be devised for offering very heavy
rewards for the detection and appre-
hension of such robbers-enough to in
duce their companions to betray them
and when captured, the punishment
should be very prompt and severe

Los Angeles daily herald., 1874-03-04
Abolition Of the Fee System.

Some effort has been made by the
friends of economical government to
secure change in the present system
of compensating county officers. The
reckless scramble for these offices is
evidence enough that they are profit
able to the holders, and If more is
wanted We have it in the fact that any
attempt to reduce the perquisites of
officials is resisted with bitterness.
There are doubtless counties in the
State that under the fee system do not
pay their officials large, or even an
adequate compensation, but there are
counties in which some of the offices
are much more valuable to the incum-
bents than they ought to be. Fair,
and even liberal salaries ought to be
paid to all our public servants, but the
rate of their compensation ought to be
definitely ascertained and fixed by law,
and this rate should neither be increas-
ed nor diminished during the term
of an incumbent. Instead of giving
the official the fees accruing to his
office, and thus increasing or decreas-
ing the compensation according to the
wealth and population of the county,
a general law should be passed fixing
the salaries that shall be paid to
officers, and empowering the Board of
Supervisors to supply them with such
clerical assistance as the demands of
their business justify. If this were
done, and the fees collected, were
turned into the Treasury, we are con-
tident that a great saving to the peo-
pie of the State would be effected,
even after allowing salaries that the
most open-hearted would agree were
amnla

The Demand for Skilled Labor.

Amid all the distress and misery
that is pressing on the poor of the
Eastern portion of our continent, the
fact remains that in the great manu-
featuring towns of New England there
is comparatively little suffering. The
great Pacific Mills of Lawrence, en-
ploying over 5000 operatives, have
not lost an hour during the Winter,
and its employees have received their
pay promptly, and with regularity.
The significant assertion of the New
York Herald, that mechanics and
skilled artisans have little difficulty
in obtaining employment, but that
thirty per cent of tire common laborers
are ont Of work." in itself tells half
the tale. Labor-saving machinery
may enable manufacturers to do more
work with fewer hands but the in
creased demand consequent upon a
cheapened production more than
makes up the reduction and those
skilled in the management of ma
chinery are rarely thrown out Of en-
ployment. The moral of this lesson is
plain. No one should rely simply on
his ability to labor for livelihood. A
trade, thoroughly mastered and indus
triously pursued, almost always in
sures living. The skillful and indus
trious mechanic does not have to wait
long for employment. On this coast
there has been little complaint, but in
San Francisco we find numbers COM
planning that they cannot find work
In almost every case they are men
without trade, common laborers, OIL
those who do not like to work, but
would prefer to earn q precarious liv.
ing by clerking in store. The sobel
and skillful mechanic need not hunt
long for work anywhere In California
