Farmers Coming.

W~ f4 - - 49, va - - 49,
BY the last trip of the OriZaba, there
arrived in this city one hundred and
fifty passengers. "A large proportion
Of those are people who come to see the
country and if they find ittall that it
has been represented they will take
up their permanent residence here.
Some twelve or fifteen farmers from
Sonoma county came down for
the purpose of examining the land in
San Fernando valley, which they have
heard is well adapted to the growing
of wheat and other small grain. A
number of the party went up to San
Fernando yesterday TO examine for
themselves an area of soil about which
they have heard SO much. Mr.. G.. X.
PORTER who is largely interested
with Senator MAcLAY in the San Fer
nando grant, also arrived on the ORR
zaba and has gone up to the land of
olives and oil. AS soon as the plans
for introducing an abundance of water
assume definite shape, the valley
about San Fernando will receive q
large accession TO its population, and
thousands Of acres that have lain un-
cultivated for years will be dotted
with farm houses and covered with
waving grain. if0lA sS.5A

Express" and the Farmers.

II the farmer community Of this
valley ever had any doubts as to the
unfriendliness of the .Epening Express
toward them, the following editorial
on the failure of E. f. MoRGAN's s Sons,
which appeared in it's issue of Friday,
ought to at once and forever settle the
matter. The little trimmer has never
forgiven the Changers for mailing
down its malicious falsehood concern
ing their notices carried in the Fourth
of July procession. To an article from
the Call on the failure and rumors con-
cerniDg it, the Express appends the
following: ft.f
These contradictions only give ground for
the most serious kind OF reflection, and when
all the rubbish Is cleared up and we get at the
truth, we will find that the house of E. E..
Morgan's Sons have only reaped the fruit of
an impossible attempt by the farmers of Cali
fornia, in conjunction with an agency of very
limited means, to control and influence the
markets of the world. II was an ambitious
effort, but an Ill advised one, as the sequel has
shown, to bull the price OF grain both here and
in Europe, and there can be no doubt that
every wheat farmer in the State would to-day
be better on II he had allowed speculation to
have kept its usual channels and have sold at
the prices prevailing, than TO have entered
into compact with one house for the purpose
Of escaping the brokers. The fact is, as we
have often said before, IL is the very competi-
ton of the spectators or middlemen which
causes the upward 1u uctuations OF the markets
Their anxiety to overreach each Other forces
prices to the utmost limit of the margin, and
in their sharp competition is the producers
greatest safety. Corners can better be made
against the producer in the absence of mid
dlemen than with them, and the reason is
simple. Ifspeculation between the producer
ard consumer or manufacturer be entirely
abolished, then the immense combinations of
capital which would directly purchase the
products from the producers could fix arbi-
trarily their own prices. 1t would be the old
contest of capital VS.. labor, and capital could
wait whilst labor could not. Labor must re-
alixe quickly, and this is an inevitable ele-
ment In its condition and one which capital
can always take advantage of. The fallacy of
the principle we are called upon to notice by
this failure will be found to have received in
this event a most striking and deplorable ex
emplifcation.

Friqhtful acknowledgements Bradley.

EUREKA, October 20th.-A fright
full accident occurred here this morn
ing about 8 o'clock. The boiler at the
Bailey mill and wood saving estab-
lishment of f. w. Perrin blew up, in
juring Perrin to such an extent that
he died soon afterward. Portions of
the boiler We're hurled half q mile
over the main town to the head of
Poverty Gulch. Three other men
who were in the place narrowly es-
capped being killed. Perrin was about
forty-six years of age, and leaves a
wife. He was the inventor Ofthe pat
ent iron-fastened wood pavement, and
had several contracts to pave the
streets Of Eastern cities.
A serious accident occurred this
morning at the Richmond smelling
works, caused by the breaking of a
fan belt. The shafting was considera-
bly, twisted. and if the machinery can
not be set to rights before morning a
serious loss of time will be involved,
as the fires in the furnaces cannot be
kept up after that time. r.t5. .,
Governor Bradley, who has been in
town for the last few days, leaves for
Hamilton to- morrow morning. Judge
Belknap preceded him here to-day.

Nevada Politics.


VIRGINIA CITY, October o0th.-The
political fight is gradually warming
up. General Williams is still on
hand, and is as confident as possible.
Kendall, despite the newspaper COM
ments on his recent speech, continues
aggressive and defiant, carrying his
war into the ranks of the chivalry
wing of the Democratic party. Some
Of the Democrats are disgusted with
Williams, because he wouldn't pay
for powder to celebrate the Democratic
victory in Ohio and Indiana. The
.chivalry Democrats are playing very
low. The registry of votes closed to-
night, and the Democrats are dis
gusted with the showing. The Demo-
cratic management Of the fight so far
has been very unskillful, while the
Republicans, on the contrary, seem to
be acting with concentrated force.
PIoCHE, October 2Oth.-Col. A. G.
Ellis and John r. Kittrell are now ad-
dressing the largest Democratic gath
ering ever held in Phoebe. The city is
ablaze with bon-fires and the speeches
of both gentlemen are being received
with cheers. The utmost enthusiasm

Los Angeles Raisins.

y. The Alden Fruit Drying Factory
jost completed in this city by Mr..
GEO. Ii. DAVIS, turned out its first
raisins yesterday. They were manu-
factured from the Mission grape and
confirm our prediction of some weeks
81 age that the fLos angeles Mission
grape would turn out raisin greatly
superior to that manufactured from
the same Equality of grape grown in
vineyards of Santa Clara, Alameda,
Solano and Sonoma counties. The
= raisin from the Mission grape of those
sections, is now in the San Francisco
market, and is in great demand
for common use, 1t Is small
and wanting in saccarine matter.
rhe rafsin produced from the Mis-
sion grape at Mr., DAVIS factory is
nearly or quite double the size of
that above described, and much
sweeter and finer flavor. Several of
our leading grocery firms, after
careful examination OF the Los An-
geles Mission grape raisin, pronounce
itequal tothef best imported Malaga.
There Is no longer any doubt but that
the grapes Of this valley will make a
raisin vastly superior to that produced
from the grapes grown further north.
Mr.. DAVIS factory will produce five,
or six tons per day, and by the close
of the season will turn out from fifty
to seventy-five tons of a superiorqual-
ity of raisins.
