Cities to be Abandoned.

EDITOR HERALD: There are so
many phases of the social picture to
be considered that one is at times
puzzled to choose. But the humani-
tartan will invariably recur to that
view which takes in the broadest con.
ception. Bearing in mind that peo-
pie, to be happy and successful, must
be healthy; hygiene takes precedence
Of aesthetics. Harmony requires such
a blending of useful and beautiful that
it seems impossible for the philoso
pher to so astray, provided the phi
losophy be pure and honest; there
fore this sharp and persistent contend
ing for an equitable distribution of la
Dor and its rewards. The conservation
of the peace well being of society re-
quires that every member should not
only be self-sustaining, but sound in
body, mind and morals. The surest
mode of achieving this result is to in
sist upon each member receiving a
thorough industrial training. No
knowledge is promotive of social we'll
being without this ingredient-the
practical development of the physical
by the actual performance of the man.
ual exercise attending productive la
bor. Moreover, this labor, to be
of the utmost benefit, should
take in such variety of en-
ployments as to give thorough
self sustaining knowledge. For the
average individual, the city does not
afford the school for obtaining this
knowledge. In fact, if one desires it
in its best and normal shape they must
seek it in the rural districts. The city
is an after-thought-a contingent not
at all necessary in any view we may
take of industrial education. For, as
the world grows older, cities will come
to be the exceptions tand less fire.
quently recurring EXCEPTIONS at that.
Rural life is the norma condition of
mankind and the best Informed. Now
look upon cities as eXcressences to be
avoided. They contaminate, and this
contamination reaches all, whether
urban, suburban or rustic, none can
escape. The vices and disorders that
afflict humanity originate in cities,
and to obtain respite and cessation
from these Affections, cities must be
abandoned. Cholera, the more malig-
nant types of eruptive and other
fevers, and numerous other dis
eases could not exist but for cities.
The earth was made to neutralize the
obnoxious effiuvia and emenations of
animals, if properly distributed. To
teach these truths and the way to
avoid disorders of every name and ma
ture. is one of the primary objects of
the organization of the Southern CAL
fornsa Sanitary Hotel and Industrial
College Association. Land enough
has been secured for the inception of
the work within nine miles of Los
Angeles and six miles from the ocean,
at all altitude of one thousand feet or
more above its level, where pure
water and air contribute to make the
location desirable. The land is suited
to the propagation of fruits aud indus
trial works of various kinds can be
carried on. We invite cooperation.

The Wrecked KaIorama.

The last advices received from San
Buenaventura are no more favorable
concerning the wreck Of the Kalora-
ma. All hopes of saving the unfortu-
nate ship are now given up. The fol-
lowing dispatch was received yester-
day by Mr.. H. Mcclellan, Agent of the
Goodall, Nelson IL Perkins line of
steamers in this city. 1t explains
very briefly the manner in which the
vessel YVES wrecked and her present
condition:
SAN BUENAvENTURA, Feb. 26th.-
H. Mcclellan, Agent Came on TO
blow. Had to let go lines in hurry.
One got in the propeller and stopped
the engines. Hove in a head line.
Buoy was hauled to ship. Anchor Of
buoy did not hold, and brought buoy
and moorings home. Let go anchor.
Failed to hold. Drifted into trough of
sea and ashore. Seventeen feet of wa
ter in hold now. Stern-post started
and end timbers open. Prospects for
saving her slim. SAGER, Purser.
The Kalorama was a sound ship with
freight capacity of 1000 tons, and
was probably worth from sixty to sew
enty thousand dollars. She had par
tial cargo of grain taken on at San
Diego, and some 400 hogs shipped at
Santa Monica. She had put in at San
Buenaventura for an additional lot of
hogs. There was probably some in
surance on the vessel and nothing on
cargo. The hogs belonged to Mr.. Far
ley, of Los Nietos.
Captain Elliott, of the Kalorama,
has always been considered careful |
seaman, and the circumstances of the
wreck, as explained in the telegram
of Purser Sager, would seem to indi-
cate that the calamity was entirely be-
yond human intervention. This addi-
tional blow will fall heavily upon the
Steamship Company, as the Kalorama
was one of their most reliable boats,
and her destruction dates second in
the list of casualties during the last
three months.

AsSEMBLYMAN LAMBoURN yester-
day introduced bill creating the
county Of Santa Ana, defining its
boundaries and providing for its or
gahization. 1t was referred to the
Committee on Counties and County
Boundaries, and when it leaves that
Committee it will carry with it a rec
ommendation that it do not pass. The
HERALD's Legislative reporter says
the entire delegation from this county
is opposed to the creation of the new
county. We may add that this is the
sense of nineteen-twentieths of the
voters aud taxpayers of Los Angeles
county.

\ FEW evenings ago, at Stockton,
the Republican State Central Com
mittee presented the Republican Gen.
trail Com mittee of San Joaquin coun-
ty with a flag, and the event was
made the occasion for q few Republi-
can speeches, which were intended as
the opening guns of the Presidential
campaign in this State. The princi
pie speakers were HENRY EDGERToN,
of Sacramento, and Ex-Governor
WOODS, of Oregon. The remarks of
both gentlemen were to the effect that
the Republican party was the only
party that could hold the Union in
tact-and it must, therefore, be main
tanned in power. The people were
told that to elect Democratic Presi-
dent, was to give the Shareholders
power over the whole government.
This bosh and nonsense is the key
note of the campaign. Do those
frothy gentlemen suppose the people
are so wanting in intelligence as to ac-
cept such utterances as fact ?

SENATOR RAYMOND asks an appro-
priation to erect monument in the
capitol grounds. He does not say
what individual, folly or virtue the
column is to commemorate nor does
he define the width, breadth and
htighth of the shaft, but in the ab-
sence of object and details we object
Just as we should if we had them all.
The State has already erected monu-
ment considerable in size and fearful
in cost at Sacramento. There is not
the slightest occasi on for further eff
fort in that direction. In after ages
the taxpayers will look at the capitol
building and curse the folly of their
forefathers. We regret the necessity
for opposing this last effort of our
Sacramento friends to get their spoon
into the State Treasury, but we prefer
the botanical garden to the monu-
fneut,

of a higher sense and the expression

said of the man who will write stat

There is music in everything. All

pose any increase In the tariff, but to
meet the reserve by reducing the esti-

prevailing depression to the general
initiation protecting the policy of the
United States, and had also injured
Canada. The policy of Cuba was pa
tience and economy. DR.. Lepper at

The temperance lecture, delivered
last night at the Presbyterian church,
was attended sparely. The lady lee

We would again invite the attention
OF our citizens to the call for mass
meeting to be held tonight at Enter
prise Hall. The object of the meeting
is to adopt some feasible plan for rails
ing means to erect new school build
ing. The present school buildings are
inadequate to accommodate our school
population, and are certainly no cred
it to our town, viewed from an aesthe-
tic standpoint. A handsome school
house surrounded by tastefully laid
out school grounds, would contribute
more to enhance the value of property
and facilitate the growth of our town
than any other public enterprise we
can inaugurate. We hope there will
be general turnout of our citizens.
Messrs. Lewis and Davis returned

They succeeded in capturing the stol-

would allow. One of the horses was
found at Julian and the other at Oak

san Diego and Julian. The animals
had been traded for fresh ones, on
which the thieves had made good
their escape. When last heard from
they were at Sweet-water, near the
