WE have been in some doubt as
to how Pixley demeaned himself at
that Platts Hall meeting. Every
journal which reported the pro-
ceedings represented him as frater-
nizing very cordially with Dennis
Kearney. Pixley endeavored to
escape the responsibility by saying,
in his Argonaut, that paper
which was only issued once n week
could not cope with numer-
Gus papers which were Is
sued every day in the week. This
was clever evasion, but still
only an evasion, and il was not
helped by the fact that the editor
with an acrid volubillty which
reaches the Thersites standard
poured in a fresh batch of Billings
gate on Kearney, which the latter
has answered in kind but more
crudely. There is an artistic fin
ish of personal invective which
Pixley reaches at bound, but to
which Kearney cannot hope tc
aspire.

WE have kept pretty observant
eye on the development of the la
boringmeu'5 organization in Los
Angeles county, and We believe
that if q vote were taken tomorrow
it would poll about four hundred
ballots. We don't think even a
saDguine Workingman would put
the figure at over six hundred.
We are inclined TO think that the
rank and file are made up of DEM
ocrats and Republicans in almost
equal proportions. The great ma
jority of the leaders have been Re-
publicans. We see 10 reason to
doubt the ability of the Democrat
ic party TO elect its ticket in this
county as triumphantly this year
as last were the election to come off
tomorrow.

Now that we are all eagerly dis
cussiDg the subject of home pro-
duction, 1t is not out of place to
expend few segrets ut some of the
opportunities we have missed, of
late, to establish home industries
in our midst. Los Angeles county
IS now large producer of petrole-
um, the manipulation of which
should center in this city, and yet
we have scarcely anything to do
with that interest. 1t should have
been our aim to have the retineries
which convert the crude petroleum
into the oil of commerce located in
some suburb of Los Angeles. We
do not know what progress is be-
ing made of late in converting
cactus into paper, bur the paper
mill for that purpose is located in
the Soledad canon, and not in Los
Angeles. We remember holding
with the gentlemen
who established both these enter
prises. and they complained Of u
lack of cordial encouragement from
our people. Had they been met
in the spirit they expected, Los
Angeles would have been made the
headq quarters of both interests. Of
course, there is no use OF crying
over spilled milk, but we recur to the
matter to point moral. In every
case where man who understands
a branch of manufactures comes to
Los Angeles we ought to extend a
cordial helping hand to him. An
industrious, well remunerated la
boring population is the basis of all
real estate values, and we should
multiply the means of earning a
livelihood here.

WE print elsewhere the pastoral
letter of Archbishop Alemany, in
which that ecclesiastic takes coca
sion to partieularize Aearneyism
as gross irreligion. Archbishop
Hughes, in the famous anti-draft
riots during the war, thought
proper to caution his flock to have
nothing to do with violence, and
Archbishop Alemany evidently re-
CARDS the present crisis as equally
grave and equally calling for his
words of warning.

cedentedly low and yet nearly every
one has gone about complaining of
the scarcity of money. In proper
ton as the interest demand has
fallen, the scrutiny as to the secur-
ity offered by the despairing bor-
rover has become more and more
severe. Probably no one would feel
like disputing the fact that there is
to-day more money on the Pacific
Coast than at any previous period
of our history. During the past
two years the rates of interest in
San Francisco have closely APP
preached the moderate scale prev
alent in the East. And yet there
has been an universal complaint
that money, in the every DAY life
of the average citizen, has never
been so hard to get hold of as dur
ing the past twelve months. The
period when we may again rely
upon an easy money market may
now be calculated almost to GER
tainty. When the crops begin to
move large sums will be drawn out
of the strong boxes of the rich for
that purpose. This money will cir
culate amongst the masses, from
Siskiyou to the Cajon valley, in
San Diego county. When the re-
dundant crop of grain is well on its
way to Europe, the real flush times
will come, "stoeks" will go sky
ward and every body and his neigh
Dor will be happy.

THE first trial of the strength of
the Workingmen's party in Los
Angeles county will probably be at
the election for members of the
Constitutional Convention. We
are entirely of opinion that the
Democracy, by calling their best
men to the front, can elect a solid
delegation. We believe that Los
Angeles is as fully the banner
Democratic county now as at any
previous time in her history.

Col. HEwITT's trip to New
Mexico reminds us that, within
the past few months, an extraordi-
nary number of high railway Off
Gals have visited Los Angeles and
Yuma. Amongst these were the
President and superintendent of
the Denver and Rio Grande Rail-
way. We should not be at all sur
prised if a number of very impor-
tant railway combinations were
under way, contingent upon the
failure of the Scott guarantee.

NEVER has the paradox that the
lower the rate of interest the harder
1t is to get money been more thor
oughly demonstrated than in the
United States during the past five
years. There has been a perfect
glut Of money in the centers of
trade but absolutely no enterprise.

If war shall, after all, succeed

If war shall, after all, succeed
the innumerable embassies, cab
met changes and hostile fulmina-
tions of the past six or seven
months, the whole world will
draw a breath of relief that
something has come Of it. There
was protracted controversy over
the Luxembourg question between
France and Prussia and nothing
memorable resulted. England
made o terrible din about the
Schleswig- Holstein question, and
allowed the allies to consummate
their plans. The old adage that
barking dogs don't bite applies to
nations to some extent. Most
great wars break out with the sud-
denness of q thunder storm in
tropic lands. A few sharp words
at q New Years reception at the
Tuileries preceded the war which
liberated Italy. 1t was word and
blow in the epic Franco. Prussian
struggle. But in this case it is q
succession Of growls, each angrier
and more resonant than the last.
The full diapason of theBritish lions
roar has reverberated again and
again through all the halls of dip
lomacy, but the lazy old brute is
10th to get up out of his corner and
show his teeth. The very noise
and ostentation of the whole affair
Is probably the best guarantee of
peace. TO employ the familiar
phrase of the boys, Russia and
England both act as if the one

though a sufficiently strong tone
has prevailed, the number of sales
made since has been decidedly
limited. Some exception may be
made in favor of Calcutta wheat,
which was in better demand than
other varities, owing to the search
ty of good qualities on the spot and
the impossibilty of stocks being
replenished for some time, under
which circumsta noes prices may
be noted n shilling per quarter

SAN FRANCISCO, April 0th.-
Archbishop Alemany's pastoral
letter has evidently created flut-

versation with the arch-agitator,
to-day, he stated that he had just
called upon the Archbishop with
reference to the pastoral. The ill.,
terview was by no means of u pa
ciiic nature. The Archbishop
plainly enunciated his hostility to
the movement as conducted by
Kearney and announced his inten-
ton of continuing the work of in
huencing Kearney'S followers to
forsake their allegiance to the
Lieutenant General and be guided
by the couDseIs Of their spiritual
advisers. Kearney was equally
uncompromising and roundly as
serted his intention of continuing
the course on which he had entered
in defiance of the couusels or COM
mands of the priesthood, the press
or any other man. 81 talked to
him like a Dutch uncle" said the
RLieutenant General. The breach
seems irreparable, judging from the
tone of conversation maintained by
Kearney, who bluntly expressed
