Colorado Desert.

Senator SATTERWHITE OF san Her
nardino, has introduced bill to grant
OLIVER M. NAzENCRoFr and his as
sociates, about two and half millions
of acres of land, upon condition that
they introduce an indefinite amount
of water along the lines of travel
across the Colorado Desert. The HER
AID has frequently alluded to this
subject before, we have always eonsid-
cred it nothing more nor less than a
ring job, which was being put up on
the Government, but until this bill
was presented we did not know the
precise status of the affair. All its
previous advocates appear to favor the
idea of turning the desert into an in-
land bay, by which the whole South
ern coast was to be blessed with Sum
mer showers, and refreshing Summer
breezes, with general change OF eli
mate, which was to turn this whole
Southern coast into an Eden. Being
perfectly satisfied with our climate as
it is, and believing that If is the best
on the globe, we demurred to making
any change. 1t now appears that this
lake business was only blind presen-
ted by the ring as feeler. The o.
ect is, not to make lake, or change
the climate. but is one of pure benev-
olence, that of giving water to the
weary traveller.
The leader of this ring informs the
legislature that once he came very
near losing his own precious life on
that very desert. Under the influence
of thirst his humanity was so impress
sed, and his benevolence excited
to that degree, that he resolved to put
water OH that desert for the benefit of
all future wayfarer5 provided the gov
eminent would donate the pitiful
amount of two millions of acres of
land. Here is paragon of benevo-
lencc, the like of which we may not
see again in this generation. What
blessed thing suffering is.
"Affiictons though they seem severe
In mercy are often sent"
None but those who hive passed
through the furnace can appreciate
this wonderful stretch of benevolence
This is all very kind on the part of Mr..
WAZENCRoFr, but we presume our leg
islature will hardly tax his over
wrought humanity to perform this no.
BILE act of charity for us. 1t has been
twenty-s years since this unfortu-
nate man passed over the desert and
such suffering. Things have
changed considerably since that early
day. We have railroad running
across that country now and travellers
can ride over it in few hours. Be-
sides there are stations and settlements
framing all along the route and some
of this land is worth five, ten and some
as high as twenty dollars an acre, and
if the govern ment will spend few
thousand dollars iii digging a canal,
hundred thousand acres Of it can be
made to bring fifty dollars an acre.

saetions we can state without being more
precise that the deposits very largely exceed
ed the Withdrawals; in fact, we may say they
exceed in the proportion OF four dollars to
one.-I6id.
And this pink Of virtue and propri-
ETY. went on from the day the bank
reopened until it closed, filling its col
umns with statements which it knew
were false, intended to induce the
stranger and newcomer to deposit
their funds in bank which every
business man in Los Angeles well
knew was virtually insolvent and
could not meet the claims upon it
While the poor people were duped
into depositipg their money in
the bank, through the misfepresenta-
tions of the Egpress, that concern was
borrowing it out on the usual security
given there pointers-and it how
owes the creditors, or somel ody, q con-
siderable sum, which we presume will
be paid when the Express begins te
pay. Here is the key to hard times.
If the Express lad not deceived peo-
pile into depositing their funds i'll an
insoivent bank, money would have
been plenty and the stringency Of
which it now complains would not
exist.

DAVID MEEKER, one of the Direct
ors of the Odd Fellows Savings Bank.
III San Francisco, having aspired to
the Presidency of the establishment
thought to measure his chances for the
position by attacking the integrity
and financial ability of the long time
President of the bank, Mr.. :. BLOCK.
When the day of election came around
Mr.. BLOCK received nineteen votes
and Mr.. MEEKER one. This so ex
asperated the defeated aspirant that
he published a statement Intended to
impair the credit of the bank. The
Directors defeated this effort by pub
fishing q statement made by MEEKER
himself on September 81 of last year,
showing that the bank is in a sound
and prosperous condition. The attack
on Mr.. BLOCK will not impair him.
In unfortunate investments he las
lost the greater portion of his private
fortune, but no twenty years resident of
San Francisco bears more unblemish
ed reputation than he. He never inten-
tionally wronged any one out of cent,
and so long as he holds the Presidency
of the Odd Fellows Bank neither its
stockholders nor depositora will lGse n
dollar through any act of lis. We
