Las Virgin es Rancho.

A dispatch from Washington
says that both Pacheco and Booth
have introduced bills authorizing
the claimant to the unconfirmed
half of Rancho Las Virgines, In
Los Angeles county, to present
their Mexican titles to the courts
for adjudication. The bill lie intro.
duced upon the recommendation of
Surveyor General Wagner, who
reports that there is no question OF
the genuineness Of the grant, and
that while the claim for the other
half was confirmed the ignorant
owners of this half failed to obtain
. United States title for their por-
tion because they trusted to an un.
faithful attorney, who neglected
his business by omittlng to present
proofs which they had furnished to
overcome technicality that alone
caused their claim to be rejected by
the Land Commissioners without
their knowledge, until it was too
late to take an appeal. The claim
ants are still In undisturbed posses

K.arney'. Reason. for Going.


Dennis Kearney started for the
East on Sunday. At meeting of
one of the Clubs, the night before
he started, he gave the following as
his reasons for going:
He had been invited to a confer
enoe. of labor organizations to be
held In Washington, and he hoped
the result would be the selection of
. man for President whom the
Democrats would nominate in Ma
tional Convention. His reasons
for going were that there are eight
hundred Postoffices in California,
and every little precinct In this
State has q Republican Postmaster.
He has two or three friends, so that
on election day they are prepared
to make a splendid fight for their
party. II the National Green
back Labor party and Working
meu's party of California and the
Democrats will nominate the same
man, they will carry California
and four other Republican Sta tes,
and every State south of Mason and
Dixon's line, and will elect a Presi-
dent who will clean out every Post.
office, and give all the places In
them and In the Mint and Custom
House to the Workingmen, with
occasionally one to the Democrats.
When the Workingmen have these
places they can carry the next Gu
bernatorial election. In regard to
the dissatisfaction with the distri-
button Of petty offices, he said the
officers were in fact n0tput in Office
by those who had voted for them,
but by those who had furnished
their bonds. Desmond had to
award three places in his Office to
assist In obtaining bonds for Sha-
Der. He hoped that there would
still continue to be unity.
