The Right Of Opinion.

The HERALD has lost subscriber.
We are depressed; and as we know
that in an onion there is strength, we
shall provide ourselves with a large
one and weep--if we can. A gentle
mana respected gentleman = has
stopped his weekly HERALD, and all
because we have shown ourselves SO
disloyal as to disapprove the Admin
istration's policy toward Louisiana.
We do not know that the respected
gentleman runs a small Postoffice or
that he expects and Indian Agency
appointment; but we do know that
the President ought to do something
handsome for q man who foregoes
reading the HERALD for his sake.
But a few words to our respected ex-
subscriber. The HERALD does got

He Will Not Resign.

The New York Herald is pursuing
an absurd course in filling column
after column with demands on Presi-
dent GRANT to resign. The President
belongs to the class who filled the rail-
road offices of which the Superintend-
ent said, few die and none resign. He
will fight it out to the end of his term,
and he is right in doing so. The most
enthusiastic friends of the President
must admit that he has made mis-
takes, but what man in his position
has avoided making them? We are
not sure that the President has been
guilty of an intentional wrong. He
pursues plans and policies that are
undoubtedly wrong, but does he know
them to be so? We may condemn a
mans act without impeaching his
motive. We cannot endorse many
acts of President GRANTS administra-
tion, but we do not propose to de-
nounce him as fool or rascal in con-
sequence, nor shall we try to black
guard him into resigning.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1875-02-14

endorse the Administration recon-
struction policy, and it is independent
enough to say so. We know that
nine-tenths of the people do not en-
dorse that policy, and when they have
an opportunity to say so at the ballot
box, they speak as with one voice.
This beautiful policy has been played
for the last six years, and we now
have a bill in Congress which pro-
poses to declare martial law through
out the South. Is this not sufficient
evidence that we have had enough OF
this magnificent policy? Perhaps our
respected ex-subscriber is one OF q now
sadly decimated tribe that believes
whatever President GRANT does is
right! We know our friend will bor-
row the HERALD of his neighbor and
read it, and we therefore write for his
benefit that the HERALD is an inde-
pendent paper-one of the most inde-
pendent papers in the State. 1t is
neither toadylng worshipper nor an
enemy of President GRANTS, nor is it
the tool or organ of any party, ring or
clique. 1t endorses what it believes
to be right and condemns what it be-
lieves to be wrong, and it has the in
dependence to express its sentiments
for or against, no matter whether it be
to endorse or condemn the action OF
President GRANT or that of town

The Prospect Frightening

"Now, by st. Paul, the work goes
bravely on.n The determination and
activity manifested by Engineer
CRAWFORD and those in his empty is
encouraging to the friends of the Los
Angeles and Independence Railroad.
The company have opened offices over
TEMPLE & WoRKMAN's Bank and are
going to work with a will. Weshall
not be surprised to hear that several
miles of road bed is completed out
from Truxton within the next ten
days and that at least fifteen miles of
the road is surveyed and located dur
ing the same time. Everything is
moving on finely and we hope every
one will encourage the enterprise by
taking stock. They will thus show
that they appreciate the magnitude
and Importance of the work and are
desirous of encouraging it to the ut
most Of their power.

Yesterdays Proceedings,

NEW YORK, February 1Oth.-After
recess Tilton's cross-examination was
resumed by Evarts, who questioned
him about the charge against him in
interview with Bowen and Oliver
Johnson about something that occur
red at Northport, Mimi, where he lec-
turcd. He remembered nothing of any
such charge. Being asked in regard to
the kiss given him by Beecher at
Moulton's when the latter was sick, he
said after any period of estrangement
he and Beecher occasionally saluted
each other with a kiss. 1t was a nota-
BILE event when it happened. He
didn't know how or when Beecher's
so-called letter of contritien received
that name. In his (witness') letter to
DR.. Bacon he had called it that letter
of apology. Witness was shown and
identified the letter from Beecher to
Mrs. Tilton, which, as near as he could
tell, was written in the Spring of '73.
Evarts read the letter telling Mr.. T.
he (Beecher) was glad that Theodore
had seen the dangerous pit which
opened before them, and expressed his
(Beecher's) sorrow for the great wrong
done her. .i7
Witness stated that this letter re-
fered to the Woodruff scandal. He
was then asked in regard to statements
he made to certain persons, none of
which he could remember. He don't
remember saying his wife was as pure
as light, but said: "You wouldn't be-
lieve me; go to Beecher; he will tell
you she is pure as gold" Witness
said the true story was in existence in
December, 1872, having been written
by him about the last of that month.
The tripartite covenant was not pub
lished. In the true story this paper,
to the best of my knowledge, was de-
stroyed, think by Mrs. Tilton, but
not by me or my desire. 1t is long
time since last saw this paper in ex-
istence. / think it was about the
Spring of 1878. / took this paper to
several persons and left it with them
for perusal. 1 showed it to Geo. A.

The Queen City of the Pacific.

A wealthy mining speculator of San
Francisco, in conversation with one
of our leading citizens the other day
remarked that there was no reason in
the world why, next to San Francisco,
Los Angeles should not become the
greatest mining center on the Pacific
Coast. There is more than mere talk
in these words. They embody prob
ability neither remote nor difficult.
This city is the nearest eligible point
to what, in the opinion of those OF
experience and judgment, will soon
develop into the richest and most ex-
tensive mining region yet discovered
in this State or that of Nevada There
is much here to attract men of great
wealth and induce them to make this
their home, and the homes of such
men means highly cultured grounds
and palatial residences. With her
genial climate, her rich soil, her vast
mining resources and her beautiful
surroundings Los Angeles will soon
become city of wealth and popula-
tion beyond the most extravagant ex-
pectations of the most sanguine of her
present residents. We expect to see
the day when Temple Block is con-
verted into stock exchange, and Los
Angeles will have her California
street on which business activity will
be no less active than on the Califor-
mia street of San Francisco. We ex-
pect to be able to point out the resi-
sdences of HAYWARD, SHARON, JONES
and others of San Francisco's wealth.
est citizens who have loft her foss, her
sand hills and her feas and made their
homes in the Queen city of the Pacific
Los Angeles. We expect to see this
valley one broad forest of orange, lem
on and lime groves. We expect to
see at least one hundred thousand
people in valley which now contains
less than thirty thousand, and we ex-
pect to see the city of Los
Angeles grow, expand, spread out,
until land we now speak of as farms
in the country will be covered with
solid blocks of houses. 9f ss,s.

A Bold Move.

With the people, all thought OF con-
sideration of the third term seems to
have passed away with the last Fall
elections, which were such an en-
phatic rebuke to the ambitious preten-
sions of President GRANT that less
determined person than he would have
at once abandoned all hope of MAIN
tanning himself in the Chief Executive
chair during the term of his natural
life. The third term was one of the
main issues of those elections, and the
opposition to the proposition was so
decisively and Enthusiastically expressed
that it's advocates, both journals and
individuals, ceased urging the measure
and it's discussion was no longer one
of the topics of the day. Recent devel-
opments at Washington, however,
indicate that the President and his
intimate friends and advisers were not
among those who bowed to the will of
the people. They were bafffed, but
not defeated. The third term snake
was scotched but not killed. The de-
termination of the President to force
the measure is becoming more appar-
ent day by day. 1t is now believed
that the Louisiana trouble was created
and SHERIDAN sent to New Orleans
in the interest of the third term busi-
ness. The Arkansas difficulties were
another move in the same direction,
and the following synopsis of bill
just adopted by the unanimous vote of
the Republican Senators and Con-
| gressmen, is another and the boldest
step yet taken toward perpetuating
the reign of U. S. GRANT. We advise
all to read this synopsis carefully:
| 1-Re-enactment of the fourth section of the
Ku KluX Act, which allows the President to
suspend the writ of habeas corpus in certain
cases, and gives him full power to use the
| army to suppress disorder and maintain the
peace.
2-The appointment of Deputy U. S. Mar
shals and Supervisors of Elections, with full
powers to conduct elections, count ballots
supervise returns and arrest persons who at
tempt to intimidate voters or unlawfully in
terfere with the conduct of elections.
3-To provide for full and fair registration
of legal voters and make it unlawful for any
reconstructed State TO impose an exclusive
poll tax, OF require the payment of such tax
as qualification for voting at any congress
SiOuaI election.
4-Declaring the exhibition or use of deadly
weapons on days of registration or election,
for the purposes of intimidation or violence, q
criminal offense, punishable with fine or inn
prisonment, at the discretion OF court.
This means, if it means anything, to
place the Southern States under mill
tary control-to declare that martial
law has superseded civil rule = and
thus secure the electoral vote of those
States for GRANT. The bayonet shall
supercede the ballot box and United
States Marshals shall direct for whom
ballots shall be cast and count the bal
lots. We repeat this is bold move
but it is desperate case and can only
be saved by desperate remedy. The
bayenet in the South and bribery and
corruption in the North seems to be
the weapons with which the President
is determined to perpetuate his Presi-
dency. Are the people to be defied
and their will and wishes set at
naught?

Dioceses of the Episcopal Church in
