Los Angeles daily herald., 1875-12-18

We present herewith Mayor Bean.
dry's Annual Message which was read
before the Council at its session last
evening. 1t is replete with satisfacto-
ry statistics C oncerning our city gov
ernment and the progress which we
have made during the last year and
has many valuable suggestions which
we are sure will meet the approval of
the entire tax-paying community.
THE MEssAGE-CONGRAT
To the Honorable the Members of the
Common Council of Los angeles
City.
GENTLEMEN:-In reviewing the
events Of the past year, we have rea-
son to thank an All-wise Providence
Tor the singular immunity from disas-
ter which has been vOuchsafed to us.
While other portions of the country
have been frequently visited by devas.
tatlng storms and fires we have enjoy-
ed an uninterrupted season of peace
and prosperity. The tide of immigra-
tion has been immense and steady in
Its flow, and has brought: to our midst
class of citizens who are intelligent
and industrious, and who will aid us
very materially in advancing the best
interests of our favored city. It is
true the financial troubles of the COM
mercial metropolis of this coast, sup
plemented by the effect of the Virgin.
ia City fire, have touched us to some
extent, but we have lost nothing and
our whole damage is confined to the
Inconvenience of a slightly stringent
money market. That we are not se-
sIously affected is amply shown by
the real estate transfers. Prices have
kept firm. and sales are nearly as rap
i'd as is usual at this season of the
year. Building operations have been
carried on with unexampled activity,
and the number of houses erected is a
great Increase over that of any pre-
viOus year. In the past twelve monl hs
no less than five thousand people have
been added to the population of this
city and that of the surrounding coun-
ty has increased at as great ratio.
FINANCIAL.
The financial condition of the city
is as follows:

INDEBTEDNESS.

Inls is Cne same as last year, no new
Indebtedness having been created.
The money collected for licenses and
for fines has paid the salaries of the
city officials of every grade, and there
is balance on hand of 81, ,769. 40. The
receipts from the sale of water for ir-
rigation have been sufficient to pay
the salary of Zaniero and his deputies,
beside all the expense of cleaning and
repairing the zanjas. Also leaving q
balance in the Treasury of $2,434.95.
The revenue derived from all sources
has met the current expenses of the
City government and leaves bal
ance of $20,6 ,634.38 In the Treasury. The
assessed valuation for. last year was
$4,589, 746, this year the valuation has
increased to $5,935,219. The rate of
taxation being l.03 on the 100 dollars
of valuation, gives total income from
that source Of SCI, 1873 which will nec-
essarily be expended in improvements
during the coming year.
STREET IMPROVEMENTS.
A large amount of work has been
done on the streets. In 1874 there
were no graded streets in the city;
since then, ten streets have been i'm
proved to greater or less extent, ag-
gregating 81 miles of grading actually
done. Experience has shown that our
method of street grading does not pro-
duce the best results. The provisions
Of the charter on this subject are
crude, and can, think, be materially
changed for the better. The recon-
mendations embodied in the commu-
nication of the City Engineer on this
subject commend themselves very
strongly, and 1 would suggest that
this matter be Investigated and the
necessary measures adopted to remove
the present lack of system. A great
deal has been said in regard to the red
gravel of Fort Hill which has been
used quite extensively as surfacing
material. Upon suburban streets, with
proper wetting and rolling, this will
undoubtedly meet all requirements.
For the streets in the business portion
of the city where the travel is inces-

A careful examination of the compar-
ative merits of the different materials
that are available for street cOnstruc-
ton should be made, and that one
adopted which Is the most economical
and durable.

The Caledonian and several members Of
Wide Awake Grange think the FARMER has
been bssely treacherous and cowSrdly
mean in regard to the dance at Farnham's
hotel last week. The facts Of the case are
that Mr.. Farnham procured notice to be
printed in the FARMER, and also advertised
ia other ways we believe, that "the Patrons
would have levee (those were the words
used in the FARMER). A card was brought
In last week from Wide Awake Grange,
which grange had never been mentioned in
connection with the affair, Mr.. Farnham not
even being member Of that grange, which
We took merely reading enough to know that
il was a communication from the grange,
and said "it was all right" When we read the
card we did not consider it " all right" in
asmuch as it carried the false impression
that MIR. Farnham had been using the name
OF the grange TO advertise his levee. The
CaIedonian seizes at the opportunity to an
nounce that I" the grangers have found their
self-chosen champion about as true to them
as il has been to everybody and everything
else" The FARMER is neither the organ Of
any political ring nor clique, as is the Gale
DOMAIN, nor Of any society. We uphold
the grange movement, which the Cdledonian
has steadily opposed and mlsrspresented +,
because we believe it to be right. But We
are not controlled by any grange or other
body, and shall use criticism as we'll as praise
where we think il is deserved. The point Of
the communication from Wide Awake
Grange was that they protested against the
use of their name. We gave the fact Of that
protest, though we further stated that no
such use of their name had been made We
do not know but Farnham and other Patrons
have right to use the word "grange" in
connection with their entertainments, howev-
er, especially when the invitation is given to
the grange of which he is a member, and
that grange makes ne objection, as was dsne
in this case.

PRAcTCAL acknowledgements. - Among
practical labor-reformers we know Of none
more sensible or successful than the Messrs.
Hoe, manufacturers of printing presses, etc.
Instead of making speeches about the rights
Of labor, and drafting sympathizing resolu.
tions to be presented at public meetings,
these gentlemen went to work with such ma
tera as was at hand. They bought lot Of
textbooks, fitted up a recitation room in
their own factory, employed capable per-
son to hear recitatlons, and then compelled
all their own apprentices to take the whole
course Of study which had been projected
This coure, while it does not make exhaus-
tive demands upon the apprentices leisure
hours, effectually prevents his spending those
particular hours in the bar-room, which are
the exclusive and high-priced universities
patronzed by laborers who do not care to
increase their stock of knowledge To the
projectors Of the enterprise there is an i'm
mediate and constant reward in the shape of
immunity from that scarcity OF skilled labor
which cripples most Of the great industries
OF the United States. The Messrs. Hoe s
apprentices instead Of being, like those Of
most houses, a set Of incompetent automatons
whose oulY complete awakenings are on pay
day, are becoming trained constructors and
are repaying many times over the cost OF
their Standardization Union.

A BUSINESS TRANSACTION. man went
into clothing store, 10 Lawrence, Mass,
aud bought hat for S8 80, left his old one,
aud said he would pay for it when he come
back. In half an hour he returned, and
entering the store met the proprietor, who
was absent at his first visit. The proprie-
tor was glad to see the mana neighbor Of
his---but observing bis new hat, shadow
passed over his face aud be said "Where
did you buy that hat2 L can sell you a hat
just like that, and good deal cheaper than
what you paid for it, know" This pleas
ed the neighbOr, and his eye tWinkling, he ask.
ed how cheap he would sell him one. "Well,
you are neighbor of mine, and you shall
have one for just S1.75." "Vcry WE'LL" re-
piled the customer, "I'l take this one l
have on, which L got here half an hour ago,
and just returned to pay for" aud he count

Vermont has furnished TO the world sew
era successful founders of communities, -
Brigham Young, Noyes ofthe Oneida COM
muuitY, ETC., but her atmosphere does not
appear to be favorable 10 the communities
themselves The last venture in this line was
the establishment on Valcour Island in Lake
Champlain, aud they are already in trOuble.
The facts in the case may be briefly stated
as follows The president, secretary, and
all the other members of the Dawn Valoour
community but six, have signed a statement
that tho representations of Orrin Shipman
in regard to the property on the shore Of
Lake Champain and on Valcour Island +,
which the Community occupies, are "stu-
pendous fraud" Mr.. Shipman, it is alleged,
represented that the property was worth
$3.50, 900, but he would give it to the COM
munity for S3l 900. The home farm, how
ever, is not worth over $4,000, and Shipman
paid only $1,000 for Valcour Island, which
has considerably decreased in value. Mr..
Shipman has kept the Communists 10 ignor-
ance Of the facts for the several months pas t
during which the organization has existed,
but they themselves now seem dispose to
discourage people from joining them. They
have come from various states, and the
breaking up OF their homes will cause them
great trouble.-Rutla'ld Herald.

The Chicago Tribune hopes and believes
that the Arkansas message was misundcr-

loyalty are worthy of the highest praise.
The present winter has disprovod some
popular EIllacies; Wis that cold weather
can't set in until the springs are filed up;
that ''signs" of u mild winter may be relied
on; that cold winter is healthy with other
nonsensical theories. II, after this winter,
any one shall utter either OF these absurdi-
ties "shoot him on the spot'

Another Job.

The subject Of opening the mouths of the
Mississippi river is attracting great deal
Of attention 10 the wost The political stu
atiouFs hardly more thoughtiuIly considered.
The plan proposed by Capt. Eads is the one
most widely Endorsed. He proposes to es-
tabIish depth Of twenty feet on the bar,
which he will agree to maintain for twelve
months. Then he is willing to contract to
increase the depth four feet, and also main
tain that. His compensation for the under
taking he fixes at several millions below the
estimates Of the army board, aud he is will
ing not to draw any funds from the treasu :
ry until the depth Of twenty feet is satisfac-
toriy maintained. But Eads' plan is not
acceptable to the Senate committee having
the matter in charge. They desire to exc
cute the task as government work, dole out
appropriations as occasion requires, aud put
the execution Of the scheme under the super
ntendency of Capt. Eads. In other words,
influential men want chance for a job, out
of which noble fortunes can be made.-Rut-
