ing to pass, he thinks the Southern
Pacific folks should also be assisted.
Both Scott and the Southern Pacific
folks appear inclined to leave San Di-
ego out in the cold; but the San Diego
people have strong friends in Congress
and 20 votes are counted on to oppose
him or Cotton, if San Diego is not
included in the provisions of the bill.
Sound Legislative Protests.
CHICAGO, January 8th. The Demo-
cratic State Central Committee yester-
day adopted resolutions declaring that
the subversion of the rights of the
people of Louisiana by military force
under orders of the President, is des-
potic and utterly violative of every
republican or democratic principle of
government; that the Legislature is
urged at the earliest possible moment
to demand that the wrong shall cease;
and that they extend to the people of
Louisiana the sympathy of her sister
States.
CINCINNATI, January Sth.-In the
Ohio Legislature q resolution was
offered declaring that the interference
of military force, under command of
United States officers, with the Gen
eral Assembly of Louisiana, was an
uncalled-for, high-handed outrage and
an assault upon the reserved rights of
the State, and calling on President
Grant to use his influence and power
to stop this unnecessary interference
and avoid bloodshed, at least until it
shall appear that the State is power
less to govern itself. The resolution
was laid over under the rules.

vasquez Found Guilty.

The trial of VAsQUEz is over and he
is doomed to death. The jury returned
a verdict of guilty of murder in the
first degree, with the death penalty.
1t will be remembered that while in
Jail in this city the bandit stated to the
editor of the HERALD, and Others who
visited him, that he was innocent of
murder-that he had never taken the
life of a human being. 1t was the
theory of his defense that though he
had wounded and robbed men, he was
not a murderer; that the killing had
been done by others without his sane
ton or authority, and that he was only
a genteel robber, while his associates
were murderers. This theory would
have been all right had there been no
testimony to contradict it; but, unfor-
tunately for VAsoUEz, the evidence of
a number of witnesses went directly to
prove that he killed two of the victims
Of the Tres Pinos tragedy, and was
rather free with his revolver on other
occasions. 1t is more than probable
that VAsQUEz has killed not one but
half dozen men, and 1t is almost cer-
tain that he will partially atone for
his crimes with his life. The world
can do without VAsoUEZ and will
doubtless be the better for his speedy
taking off.

the WILSON series of school books.
BANCROFT, as publisher, Is feeble
imitation of HARPERs, and his ambi-
tion to be called the great publishing
house of the Pacific is so great that we
have no doubt he would not hesitate
to reward handsomely the majority of
q Board of Education that would ena-
BILE him to do the people'of the State
out of SS00,0O0 on his cheap and i'm
perfect school books. We shall not
say outright that BANCROFT, and not
his books, induced the Board to make
the change in readers, but that some
thing of the kind is the case is an
opinion that fire cannot burn out of
us. That the Board has consummated
an.infamous transaction is the almost
universal verdict; and that no men,
ber of the Board voting to impose the
heavy tax on the people which this
change entails will ever again receive
a position at the hands of their fellow
citizens, is something of which we are
more than confident.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1875-01-12

LITTLE AARON A. SARGENT, of
Quaker Hill, Nevada county, has
again made himself ludicrous in the
Senate. In discussion on THUR
MANS Louisiana resolution few days
ago, HAMILTON, of Maryland, said, in
answer to question of LOGAN, that
according to report of LOGAN and
CARPENTER, there was no such thing
as State Government in Louisiana
in 1873. This was so pointed that the
Senate laughed and the galleries APP
plauded. Little AARON took this as
an insult to the Administration and
warned the galleries that if they ap-
plauded again he would have them
put out. They did applaud again, and
little AARON made his motion, but
crawfshed in favor of q substitute.
The day when such servile tools as
little AARON could WELD an influence
in the Senate, or elsewhere, has passed
let us hope, never to return.

Traitors to the People.

The press generally condemns the
action of the State Board of Educa-
tion in changing the text books of the
public schools. Added to the verdict |
of condemnation is the somewhat
strongly expressed conviction that the
change was effected through the infu-
ence of the book dealers; and, what is |
still more unpleasant to consider, is
the suspicion that the influence
brought to bear on the majority of the
Board was something more persuasive
than the eloquence of argument. We
have no disposition to charge the
Board with being influenced by brib-
cry, and we would fain persuade our
selves that the men who have effected
change which will cost the people of
this State half million of dollars,
were actuated solely by principle and
a belief that they were performing
their bounden duty; but such result
is difficult of attainment. The people
generally had expressed their opposi-
tion to change; nearly every Grange
in this State had passed and published
resolutions opposing the change;
majority of County Superindents sent
communications setting forth that no
change was desired; State Superin-
tendent BOLANDER asserted in the
Board that none, save dealers,
had ever broached the subject to him;
the school teachers almost universally
opposed change and the press gener-
ally favored a retention of the books
now in use. These facts were well
known to each and every member of
the Board; aud, knowing that they
were thus well advised, we find it diff
ficult to offer reasonable excuse for
the open defiance of the will of the
people so palpable in the action of the
Board. The BANCROFT series of read
ers, which have been substituted for
those of McGUFFEY, are pronounced
by those who have examined them to
be defective in binding, compilation,
grammar and rhetoric. Their produc-
tion was n speculation based on that
of the HARPERs, in the publication of
Los Angeles daily herald., 1875-01-12

THE Express has turned its atten-
ton to counting the bales of paper re-
ceived at the HERALD office, and as
usual does not perform its task well.
We are not in the habit Of nosing
about the private business of our CO.
temporaries, but we will venture a
small wager that the HERALD has re-
ceived and used up within the last
three months mere paper than has
been consumed by the Express since it
sold out last, or even the time before
the last.

Breathing through the Mouth.


A fact which cannot too frequently
b, impressed on the mind, says the
Science of Health, is "that pernicious
habit of breathing through the mouth
while sleeping or waking is.very hurt
full. There are many persons who
sleep with the mouth open and do not
know it. They may go to sleep with
it closed and awake with it closed, but
if the mouth is dry and parched on
waking it is a sign it has been open
during sleep. Snoring is another sure
sign. This habit should be overcome.
At all times, except when eating,
drinking or speaking, keep the mouth
firmly closed and breathe through the
nostrils, and retire with a firm deter
mination to conquer. The nOstrils are
the proper breathing apparatus, not
the mouth. A man may inhale poison
Gus gases through the mouth without
being aware of it, but not through the
nose"
Los Angeles daily herald., 1875-01-12

JUDGE DURELL, of Louisiana, and
Judge BUsTEED, of Alabama, have
both resigned. Against both these
men the House had taken steps for
impeachment, and now that they have
resigned it is proposed to drop i'm
parchment proceedings. This is prob
ably the end sought to be reached by
their resignation. If there are grounds
for impeachment, the verdict should
be rendered. No such avenue of es-
cape is offered to the common offender
against the law, and there seems to De
no just reason why derelict officials
should be allowed to escape the dis
grace of their unlawful acts by re-
signing their office.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1875-01-12

THE editor of the Record in his issue
of the 9Th inst. raises howl against
the law abiding people of the United
States, for daring to impeach the con-
