THE conundrum, fare we going

THE conundrum, T" Are we going
to have another European warp
Is growing in interest day by day.
After having expended hundreds
OF thousands of lives and millions
of money in the Turkish war, 1t is
really not unreasonable that Rus
sia should aim to obtain an equiv
alent. War, or a back-down of
one of the powers to the bitter con-
trovery, would seem to be inevita-
BILE; and yet We cannot think,
in view of her history during
the past forty years, that Eng
land means war. Already her
shipping interests are beginning
to suffer by the multiplied rumors
of war, and a continuance OF the
present unsettled state of things for
many months would undoubtedly
throw much of the commerce of
the world out of British into
American bottoms. The suspense
is MORALLY exhausting 10 Russia,
also, and as it is just as impossible
to extract a moneyed indemnity
from Turkey as it would be to ex-
tract blood from o turnip, Russia
will feel for years the pecuniary
sacrifices of the late war, even
though a new one should be averted.

THE Kearneyites in San Fran

Ing. The proceedings of their
State Central Committee, which
met in San Francisco Saturday

Lucrative body. determinations
Of the lowest and gIossest kind,
clinching of fists, giving the lie,

A feud OF the most violent descrip-

amongst these WORTHLESS, and they
will experience the truth of the
scriptural aphorism, so often en-
ployed by A braham Lincoln, that q
house divided against itself cannot
stand. A more than Corsican VEN

longing to the working class or not,

commanding the Department of
Arizona. The principal charge
against the defendant is that lie
violated the army regulation for
bidding an officer writing or furn-
ishing for publication any matter
regarding military movements, etc.
In this case Gen. Kautz published
a pamphlet review of Judge Advo-
cate General Dunn's opinion of
Kautz's official action in the case
of Captain Campbell, of the Fifth
Cavalry, who was sentenced to dis
missal, but whose sentence was set
aside in Washington. The PAM
phlet was circulated privately in
the army. The trial is attracting
considerable attention, especially
in military circles both on account
of the high rank of the officers
composing the court and by
reason of the peculiar nature
of the charges against the Defend
ant. 1t is the first time 10 the his
tory of the country in which the
question has arisen as to whether
an officer has the right to impugn
the motives of his superior, as eX-
pressed in official papers. The fol-
lowing is the detail for the Court:
Brigadier General G. G. Augur,
Brigadier General George Crook,
Col. G. l.. Kilburn, Col. j. H. King,
9th Infantry; Col. w. f. Barry, I'd
Artillery; Col. T. G. Prither, LIST
Infantry; Col. J. Il. Smith, 14th
Infantry; Col. c. II. Smith, 10Th
Infantry; Col. Rufus Ingalls,, As
sistant Quartermaster General; Col.
I. N. Palmer, I'd Cavalry; Col. F.
F. Flint, 4th Cavalry; Major II. b.
Burnham, Judge Advocate of the
Court. The Court will be open to
the public. The defendant will be
allowed to employ counsel if he
sees flt-either an army officer or a
civil lawyer. Gen. w. n. Dunn,
Judge Advocate General of the
United States Army, who preferred
the charges, has arrived in the city.

WE learn from every hand a fact
which is confirmed by our Spadra
correspondent, viz that the late
rains have done very little damage
to the crops. We have for years
had occasion to remark the dispo-
sition of California farmers to
grumble at being visited by too
much and too little rain. Last
year the droulh was the farmers
bette noir, although the result
proved that our Los Ange-
les crops, outside Of the
mesa lands, were abundant,
Notwithstanding the scant rainfall
and commanded exceptionally
high prices. This year the com.
plants have been of too much
rain. The fact is that it takes a
barley field but a very short time,
with bright, sunshiny weather, to
get on its feet after having been
"lodged." The barley crop in this
county will be certainly twice as
large as in any period of our his
tory.
Daily Los Angeles herald. [microfilm reel] (Los Angeles [Calif.]) 1876-1884, 1878-05-01

ALL the conditions of legitimate
commerce will exist in Los Ange-
les county this year. We shall
have such an abundance of pro-
ducts of various kinds that there
will be valid excuse for the APP
pearance at our ports of quite a
number of vessels. We cannot
with truth say that this has been
the case heretofore. While we
sent three ship loads of Los Ange-
les wheat to Liverpool year before
last that was the initial shipment,
and it was succeeded by a year of
drouth which made the raising of
wheat without irrigation an i'm
possibility. The Messrs. Tanker
SHIN & Van Mugs did not COM
mand facilities for irrigating their
San Fernando ranch, so that they
were obliged to rest until the pres.
ent year. We shall, in all proba.
bility, have million sacks of bar.
ley for export this year. Canadian
and California barley will drive all
other barleys out of the market, on
account of its superiority, and it is
conceded that the California staple
is much the superior of the two.
While we shall have very con-
siderable demand for our barley
from Arizona this year, we ought
to be able to send it to market by
water. The experiment of five oil
six ship loads of Los Angeles bar
ley, sent to New York and Boston,
would undoubtedly be very profita-
BILE to the parties who should de-
velop the needed enterprise. The
cargoes would command very
high plice.

weather, work and crops record so
few complaints as at present. Bus
mess has been necessarily restrict
ed in Mark Lane, owing to the
Easter holidays. The supply of
English wheat has been light and
prices have undergone little or no
change, either in London or the
provinces, and a quiet but steady
tone prevailed. With political af-
fairs still unsettled, the holders of
foreign wheat have been content
to satisfy the retail demand. The
exports for the past week amounted
to only $500 quarters, against 5000
and $500 respectively in the two
preceding weeks, from which il
may be seen that the requirements
of the continent are for the present
supplied. This important element
Of strength being wanting, holders
had the ordinary consumptive
wants of the country to fall back
upon, which do not appear to be
large, although there has been
sufficient business to prevent prices
receding to any quotable ex-
tent. Millers, generally speak,
ing, hold fair stock. America
has furnished the bulk of the i'm
ports of wheat into London which,
however, have been quite moderate.
With fair arrivals at the ports, the
calls for floating cargo trade for
wheat ruled firm. Prices advanced
fully one shilling, apparently ow-
ing to the political uneasiness, but
business was restricted owing to
the holidays. Maize advanced six
pence. Barley steady.

ally understood that the San Fer
nando valley wheat of Los Angeles
county, and that grown in the
Cajon valley, in San Diego county,
make the very best flour known on
the American continent. The area
at present sown in wheat i'll this
county is probably not over one
tenth of that which will be planted
in this cereal ten years from now.
The old superstition about "rust'
has been pretty we'll exploded.
There are large areas, running up
to the neighborhood of three or
four hundred thousand acres, which
will yield bountiful wheat crops
six years out of seven. The sew
enth year of dreuth is amply COM
pensated for by tho fact that the
average yield of wheat to the acre
in this county Is two or three
times that of Pennsylvania and
Ohio. AS we have ready access to
the ocean; and, consequently, to
all the ports of the world, we COM
mand very much more satisfactory
prices than the farmers oil
the Middle States. Hun
dreds of our farmers to day
waste fertile acres on barley which
would yield magnificent wheat
crops, thus assuring a handsome
money return for their labor. W.

truths which we already diml

THE inspiration of the Constitu-
tional Convention campaign in Los
Angeles county should be desire,
in all parties, TO send our very best
men to that body. If the Work
ingmen shall prove TO have the
strength claimed for them by per-
sons whom we regard as not well
informed as to the political status
of this county, by all means let
them be ambitious to have them
selves represented by men of their
order who will do credit to the new
organization and who could be
trusted to honestly represent Los
Angeles county. The same as to
the Republican party. We have
never disguised our belief that the
Democratic party will elect their
candidates to the Constitutional
Convention from this county, if
they nominate good men. We
should bend all our efforts to secur-
ing from the mass of the Los An
geles Democracy the very ablest,
most reliable and representative
men as our candidates in struggle
which will demonstrate whether or
no this is still the banner Demo-
cratic county. We believe it is,
but we do not believe in TAX
ing a single chance. We concede
the fact that We cannot elect poor
men=we use the word poor, of
course, in the sense of inferior and
unfit men, for we hope that rich
men will be in as large a minority
in the Constitutional Convention
as they are in every day life. But

abundance of good material; and,
If it chooses to put them in the
front of the fight, it will undoubt-
