The WEEKLY WISCONSIN has been received with
such marked approval by its readers and the rublio
that the publishers have determined to enlarge its
scope and improve its character to an extent that
shall give it rank with the great weekly Journals of
the country. As means for Introducing it to the
attention Of the people, place its price of sub
scription at about one half the price charged for
other newspapers of its character. Our experience
has proven that great newspaper be furnished
ior $3.50 per annnm. The experiment has been
tried and has been crowned with succ9ss. We now
are determined to extend its field to the uttermost
boundaries of the United States. While its scope
and field will be national. the WISCONSIN vii par
take of the better characteristics and enterprise of
the Great West.
In addition to the many attractions of the WEEKLY
WISCONSIN, its prOprietors will commence on the
10Th Of December, the publication Of a charming
serial novel entitled "The Story of a Fortune"
which will run about three months. Back numbers
will be furnished to those desiring them.

San Francisco News.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 17th.--
At meeting of the Board of Educa-
ton last evening long report was
presented going over the testimony in
the fraud Investigation in detail, and
closing by recommending the dis
charge of all teachers who had paid
money to secure their positions or
been guilty of any practices calculated
to place members of the Board in a
false position. The conduct of Director
Bradley in borrowing money from a
teacher, and maintaining such close
connection with Owens, ex-Janitor, is
strongly censured. Five ladies and
one gentleman were dismissed in ac-
cordance with the recommendation of
the report. This ends the case in the
Board. The matter will probably 60
before the Grand Jury.
The Coroner's jury, yesterday,in the
case of Samuel E. Oakley, who died
from the effects of laudanum, at the
American Exchange Hotel on Sunday
last, found verdict of death by an ac-
cidental overdose.
In tbe case of Thomas Banks, on
trial in the Fifteenth District Court
for killing Isaac Beard, the jury yes
terday returned verdict of murder In
the second degree.

Sectional Jealousy.

The little jealousies that once existed
between the Southern counties of Cal
ifornia seems to have vanished like
the early dew. Good will and frater-
nal relations are now, henceforth and
forever to exist. This is right, and sit
is like the precious ointment upon the
head and as the dew of Herman"
Upon such the Lord commands the
blessing, Even life forevermore.n
Now as we are unit shall we not
unitedly foster and energetically push
forward to completion all the great
enterprises calculated to make South
ern California prosperous and desira-
BILE. The editors of San Bernardino
and San Diego, speaking for their peo-
pie, disciaim all feelings of envy, and
we believe what they say; but as ac-
tions speak louder than words, and as
there is now the best opportunity they
will ever have to show their faith by
their works, we invite them to unite
with US in building a great highway
by which the rich mineral wealth of
the back country shall enrich all the
plains of the sea. Come, brethren
now or never.

THE city or county, one or the
other, or both together, ought to pro-
vide place in which to keep people
who are not violators of the laws and
yet their condition renders it necessa-
ry that they be retained in custody.
1t looks badly and partakes strongly
of the inhuman to thrust mildly in
sane person into q cell of the county
Jail. Yet the officers have no other
recourse. A case of this nature re-
Gently came to our notice. The man
was not violent, still it was hardly
safe that he should be at large uncared
for and unattended. Friends walked
with him during the day but when
night come on there was nothing for
it but to lock the unfortunate man in
the county Jail. We have no doubt
but that this treatment which is gen.
orally practiced in San Francisco, has
sent hundreds of men and women to
the Insane Asylum, whom few days
Of gentle treatment would have re-
stored to reason. We should not treat
the unfortunate insane as though they
were malfactors.

Congressional News.

WASHINGTON, March 16th.-Senator
Sargent to-day had an interview with
Benet, Chief of the Ordinance Depart
ment, as to the issue of new arms for
the militia Of California, to replace
those disposed of during the war and
burned in the Sacramento Armory.
If information as to what has been
done with the arms is promptly fur
nished, California will get her supply
without difficulty.
Senators Sargent and Jones called
on the Commissioner of the General
Land Office yesterday and protested
against Sutro's application to have his
tunnel-royalty clause inserted in the
patent for all the mines in the Com
stock lode.
The fight against Governor Axtell of
Utah originated and has been pro-
NOTED by Ex-Governor Woods, in the
hope of being reinstated. He is also
trying to get the Superintendency of
the San Francisco Mint, or some for
eign Mission, but he is regarded as
an impecunious place-hunter, with no
chance of success.

Rum0red Retirement Of fAttorney. Gem
eral Williams.

CHICAGO, March 15th.-A Washing
ton special with regard to the retire
ment of Attorney General Williams
from the Cabinet, that Beck of Ken
lucky, in q conversation with cor
respondent says that Williams retire
ment is certain, as he will never wait
till Democratic House of Represent
atives assemble, as they would surely
impeach him. Beck is represented as
saying that the same facts that war
ranted the impeachment of Judge
Durrell in New Orleans would be used
in the impeachment of Williams, for
he authorized the acts upon which
Durrells impeachment was based, and
this is only one among his official acts
deserving Impeachment. Beck thinks
that Carpenter would stand the best
chance of confirmation as the successor
of Williams.

The advance in real estate In and
about this city has been very great
within the past six months. The
rapid increase in population has ere.
ated strong demand for building
property, and the certainty of an early
increase in railroad facilities has es-
tablished firmness in land transac-
tions that astenishes the most san
guine of our Oldest inhabitants. 1t is
noticeable that the enhancement in
the value of landed property is not
confined to any particular locality OF
section, but is felt in all parts of the
city. The most striking advance,
however, is in East Los Angeles,
where we are informed, land, especial
ly desirable lots for residences, has
trebled In value within the last six
weeks. The prosperity of Los Angeles
is unequaled by that of any other city
in the State.

The Herald.

One must always go away from
home to hear the news. Looking
over the Santa Barbara Iader of the
11th instant, we see it announced as
an on dit that the Los Angeles HER
AID is about to become Republican
journal. Justice to ourselves and our
readers demand that we shall say a
few words in response to the totally
unfounded and, it seems to us, unwar-
ranted statement of our Santa Bar
bara cotemporary. The HERALD has
been, from the commencement of its
present management, thoroughly
independent journal-independent in
its views, political and otherwise. 1t
has expressed itself freely and frankly
on all questions and issues; and if its
opinions have not at all times been
such as to receive the cordial endorse
ment of the general public, they have
at least received the acknowledgment
of being honest and well meant in
their intentions. The paper has made
a speciality of writing up, in a truth
full and unexaggerated manner, the
vast resources of Los Angeles valley.
In doing this, it has avoided discrim-
ination in favor of or against locality
holding that we are one community
with a community of interests, and
that it is neither just nor polite to
extol one section and disparage an
other. The agricultural resources of
our rich and beautiful valley have re-
ceived especial attention, and the arti-
cles on the soil, products and climate
of Southern California have been the
direct means of adding largely to the
population of this part of the State.
1t has been our purpose to make the
paper the representative and advocate
of the best interests of Southern Cal
ifornia. How we'll we have succeeded
the financial success and general
popularity of our paper is the best evil
dence we can offer. What the HERALD
has labored for and advocated in the
past, it will continue to labor for and
advocate in the future. 1t will remain
under the same editorial and business
management as heretofore. By refer
ence to the proceedings of the meeting
of stockholders held yesterday, which
will be found in another column, it
will be seen that the new Board of
Directors is composed of some Of the
best men in the county. Politically,
there are Democrats, Republicans and
Independents. The agricultural inter-
ests are we'll represented, there being
three farmers and one stock-grower
among the number. 1t is the purpose
of the company to make the HERALD
a newspaper in every sense of the term,
and thus add to its already considerable
and widely extended influence.

Doubling Postage ON Printed matter,

WASHINGTON, March 10Th. The
Postmaster General disavows all
knowledge of the legislation doubling
the postage on printed matter until
after Congress adjourned. Mr.. Jewell
expresses great regret that careful
examination leaves him no opportu-
nifty to suspend, modify or evade its
provisions. Senator Hamlin, upon
whose appeal and explanation of the
amendment was passed, after Sar-
geant had moved to table it, made no
mention of its effect on newspaper, and
it was supposed to relate only TO mer-
chandiA sent through the mails.

Civil Rights.

MY DEAR BROTHER SAM: You ask
great many questions in your last
which are hard to answer, but what
you ask about the Civil Rights law,
which was just passed by Congress, 1
think 1 understand to a dot. The
meaning of that law is this: 1t gives
the black man the right to go where
nobody wants him, and when he gets
his head cracked, and is pitched down
stairs into the street, it gives the law
yers a chance to make somebody pay
some money to the lawyers.
The way the law came to be passed
was this: You see times has got to be
pretty hard about Washington, and,
in fact, all over.the country, and them
lawyers and roughs in Congress were
being watched so close they couldn't
cheat the Government much more, and
some of them was nearly strapped" }"
and all of them were getting hard up.
So they put their heads together to
fix up law which would help them
to make little when they go out of
office. Old Ben Butler is the keenest
man in the United States. He fixed
up that law. You see he can look
through and through darkey, from
beginning to end, and knows just
what's in him, and he could see that
the black man would always go
just as far as the law would allow him
and in some directions little further,
especially if nobody wants to GO.
Butler saw this, and he said to them
defunked Congress fellows: "Here is
our chance, if we pass this law we can
make lots of money when we leave
Congress-" Now, my brother, 1 have
give you the jist of the whole thing,
the law was passed to kick up a fuss
all over the country, SO that grand
rascals can make money out of it.
Wouldn't it be good joke if the black
folks should have sense enough to see
the trap and not walk in it?
Your Brother,
JIM MUGGINs.

McDIvITT, CAMPBELL & Co., Ill
Nassau street, New York, have issued
parts two and three of the TILToN-

NOTHING adds so much to the pros
perity of a city or offers greater in
ducement to families of wealth and in
tiuence to become her permanent res
idents, than good school fa-
cilities. These, Los Angeles
is taking steps in the right
direction to secure. Our school
cannot be better conducted. They are
we'll managed and a more efficient
corps of teachers could not be desired;
but we need few more school build
ings and these the Board of School
Directors are preparing to provide. A
school-house is sadly needed on the
Eastern side of the river, and there
are other districts where school build
ings are wanted Immediately. If the
people vote the money asked for by
the Board the city will soon be pro-
vided with all the school houses re-
quisite at present, and visitors will
have no reason to complain of the
crowded state of our public schools.

OUR neighbor of the HERALD yesterday, I'm
itating its colossal namesake of New York
thought fit to indulge in some very melan-
choly Vaccinations respecting the future of
the United States. If we took such O.
Respondent view of the future and saw cor
ruption taking on C@sarian front and rioting
unchecked In power, we would try to cultivate
the spirit OF Samuel Johnsons philosophy,
and say, in T0ots' felicitous phrase, sits of no
consequence" whether King, Kaiser, Presi-
dent or Senate rules the world, the sum of
human misery and happiness is still about
the same.-ErpreSs.
We have no objection to our neigh
Dor embracing the philosophy of SAM
UEL JOHNSON in respect to Govern
ment. 1t is probably better than no
philosophy at all, and particularly so
for the adherents of the present admin
istration, for in none other could they
find comfort. But it is the duty of
our neighbor to shield his party, and
having no argument to advance, seeks
to cover its iniquities with the mantle
of JoHNsoNIAN philosophy and other
platitudes scarcely worthy attention.
