Another Overland Road.

Some months ago on information
furnished by Colonel CRAWFORD. the
HERALD pointed out the practicable
ty of making Los Angeles the Pacific
terminus of q transcontinental rail-
road. At that time many Of our citi-
zens were disposed to regard the
scheme as Utopian and were content
to secure for the present the construc-
tion of the Los Angeles and Indepen-
dence railroad. We were, however,
confident that If one enterprise was
carried out the other would immedi-
ately follow, and information just re-
ceived confirm the correctness of the
position We then assumed. Messrs.
JONES, PARK and DILLON have given
the subject their consideration, and on
the information which Colonel CRAw-
FORD has laid before them we UNDER
stand they have decided to build the
five hundred miles Of road which will
connect the Los Angeles and Indepen-
dence road with the Southern Utah
road which connects with the Union
Pacific at Ogaen. The overland road
will leave the Los Angeles and Inde-
pendence road at the Point of Rocks
and run directly eastward four hundred
and ninety miles, to connec ting
point with the Southern Utah. The
route of this piece of road runs directly
through rich mineral section, which
will of itself supply alarge amount
Of carrying trade to say nothing of the
through business. There seems to be
but little room for doubt but that this
through road will be built. If the en-
terprise is carried out 1t will be glo-
rious thing for Los Angeles and all
Southern California.

The |" Record. Unionr and "Post.r

The slanderous articles in reference
to Southern California which have
appeared in the above-named journals
recently were written by aperson who
is temporarily stopping in this city.
He is a stranger here, knows nothing
of the country or the people about
whom he is writing, and we are cred
itably informed that he is the same
individual who wrote those scurrilous
articles from Santa Barbara to the
New York Herald. This anonymous
scribbler is tramping around the ceun-
try with purse too light to
pay his board, and we hear
that his misrepresentation of
Southern California are the result
offailures to obtain money for puffs. 1t
is remarkable that journals which
make any pretensions to respectability
will open their columns to communi-
cations slandering their neighbors.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1875-04-30
Wanted State Governor.

One of the qualities which the peo-
pie of California should require in the
man whom they elect their next gov
ernor, is comprehensiveness of the
States wants and necessities with the
ability to devise ways and means to
meet those wants. One Of these wants,
perhaps the greatest, is system Of
irrigation, which shall utilize as far as
possible the water which is now al
most entirely lost. The broad valleys
of the Sacramento and San Joaquin
are now comparatively non-product-
i've, yet there is water enough flowing
into those valleys, if properly utilized,
to render productive their almsst
every acre. The State needs a govern
or to understand this and the determ-
ination to devise some means to force
from those millions of acres an annu-
al crop. The task is one of large di-
mensions but it is not impossible of
accomplishment. 1t is a work that
must be undertaken and carried out.
There are among the aspirants for
governor two or three and perhaps
more whom we think capable of inau-
gurating and carrying forward this
great and all-important enterprise,
and we trust the people will be wise
enough to elect one of the number.
The governor Of a State should be a
man who has q general knowledge OF
the whole State. With such gov
ernor class legislation and local bills
will be unpopular. while such meas
ures as work the good of the entire
commonwealth will seldom or never
fail to receive his approval and en-
dorsement,

The Ventura Affair.

We have hitherto refrained from
expressing an opinion as to on whom
rests the responsibility for the loss Of
the Ventura. We know that in the
excitement and confusion following
the striking of vessel, persons on
board are apt to see things in differ
ent light, and their reports and opin-
ions are generally so different and
contradictory that it is difficult to ar
rive at the facts. But in the case of
the Ventura there IL q striking SINH
larity in the statements of one hun
dred and thirteen of her one hundred
and sixteen passengers. They all
concur in the belief that it was gross
and objectionable neglect on the part
of the commanding officer that drove
the steamer on the rocks and there is
but one opinion as to the management
after the vessel struck, which is that
the Captain either would not or could
not control his crew. The record of
marine disasters, we are pleased to
say, affords but few instances where
the boats were taken possession Of by
the crew and the passengers left on
the stranded vessel. Where was the
Captain while these men were doing
what no commanding officer should
permit them to do? The vessel struck
within a quarter of mile of shore;
yet these two boats, filled with the
crew, did not return until next morn
ing. Their excuse that they could
not find the beach, after a ten hours
search in an almost calm sea. will not
be accepted by intelligent people. 1t
seems reasonable, aud the idea is
borne out by the reports of the passen-
gers, that had the Captain maintained
control over his crew, the two boats
which the crew ran away with could
have landed the passengers and their
baggage during the time the boats
were absent from the ship. We are
now assured the baggage is all lost.
In permitting the departure Of the
crew with the boats, the Captain lost
ten hours of valuable time-ten hours
of calm sea- The facts enumerated
and many others of the same charac-
ter which we have not space to re-

The Immigrants.

A gentleman from Sacramento who
made it his duty, in connection with
a number Of leading citizens in that
place, to visit round among the immi-
grants and ascertain their condition
as to health and comfort, gives flat
tering report OF the situation. 1t was
found that the immigrants are of an
excellent class-men and women. of
thrift and industrious habits, who are
fully alive to the fact that their future
prosperity depends mainly upon their
own efforts and who come prepared to
perform hard labor for subsistence,
If the contingency required it. These
people all brought more or less money
with them, and are not regarded as
objects of charity, which they neither
expected nor ask. Most of the num-
ber had theirp point of destination fixed
upon before leaving their old homes,
and are moving off from day to day,
in quiet and orderly manner, to the
various points selected for location. -

One of the finest improve ments In
the city will be the rebuilding of the
Lafayette Hotel. The whole Of the
back of the house is already being
torn down, and the front will shortly
be built up. The stores will be just
half as large as they are now, and, as
the Important has y very large stock
on hand, they will not have half room
enough for their goods and in order to
prevent them from being damaged by
dirt and dust, they have decided to
sell all their Spring goods at less than
cost, and others, such as cottOns, table,
linen, etc. ,sat exact cost. We advise
all to call at the Important and con-
vince themselves of the great bar

get again, and in order to prevent. a
great rush, we advise all to call early
and take advantage of the building Of

Secretary Del.no Not {. Resign.

WASHINGTON, April 26th.-Secre-
tary Delano to-day freely expressed
the belief that the recent newspaper
charges affecting his official integrity
are the result of conspiracy to COM
pei his retirement from the Cabinet.
He is in receipt of numerous letters
from friends in various portions of the
country, advising him to abandon his

Delano now says that in accordance
with this advice and with his own
judgment of his duty to himself and
to the Republican party, he has now
postponed his resignation indefinitely.

The Hawaiian Treaty.

WASHINGTON, April 2S.-The Secre-

application from Portland, Oregon,
for the free entry Of a cargo Of sugar
from the Sanwich Islands, telegraphs
to the effect that an entry cannot be
permitted at present, as the treaty is
not yet in force, but that parties desi-

fit of the treaty may protect their
rights by protest, and appeal in the
usual manner to the treaty as approved
by the Senate. 1t provides that it
shall not go into operation until the

New YORK, April 26th. Panama
Railroad stocks continue to advance
under the new management, Of which
Senator Jones is the chief promoter.
Jones is now one of the largest stock
holders in the Company. He has
made $400, 900 since he was elected Di-
rector. His name is becoming popu-
lar on Wall street as a successful,
shrewd and bold operator. The dis
covery Of the weak point in Jay
Gould's monopoly schems, and his
boldness in measuring swords with the
King of Wall Street, is the subject of
much comment. Panama stock is
expected to rise to $500 soon, as it is
estimated to pay twenty-four per cent.
per annum. The stock advanced to-
day from $l72, and fell back to $l81.

count impel us to the belief that the
Captain of the Ventura is to blame
for the wrecking of his vessel and for
the loss Of the passengers baggage.
Had the sea been rough and had the
steamer gone to pieces, under the
management or mismanagement
which prevailed, the loss of life would
have been frightful. The steamship
company should retire the Captain of

The following cure-all for squirrels
has been furnished to the Alta by w.
M. Newhall, of Belmont, San Mateo
county: Pour boiling water on two
quarts of wheat, let it boil for fifteen
minutes, or until soft enough to mash
in your fingers, strain the water off,
mix in pint of brown Sandwich
Island sugar, spread the wheat thinly
over the bottom of tin pan and sift
three bottles of Powers Il Whiteman's
strychnine, when finely powdered,
over it. Put one teasponful at each
hole, and it will not be long before you
will be rid of the squirrel nuisance.
