Read Carefully.

TO read Silhout research is to read
"hL--. r-..-" h""a"sn whatever be
our native aptitude and our cducaticne
preparation, there cen be no prop 5
power without labor As the exertiou
of smit.ng developes the muscles o1
the smiths arms into brawny breadth
and strength; as the exertion of walk
ing similarly develops the muscles OF
the pedestrians legs, so the exertion OF
thinking, Of analyzing, Of comparing,
OF combining, Of testing and determin'
ing, ofpatieut and diligent intellectual
mining, developes and increases intel
lectual capability. We want both
knowledge and The power to know
and the power to know, the power Of
quick perception, of accurate judge
ment, of ready recollection, of graceful
combination, Of comprehensive classifi'
cation, can b. acquire only by thor
cugh and persistent addiction to inde-
pendent research, to sound criticism,
and to acquaintance with the writings
of wiser or greater men. All this calls
forth aud increases our cogitative ca
liability, and forms such intellectual
habits as are of priceless value in the
walks and ways OF true intelligence
Power and possession are too often con
founded. 1t may be thought that a
boy at school, ora young man in
college, or student in hislibrary, Or a
professor in his researches, has wasted
his time by learning what he will new
er have vocational use for; but if he
thus increases his poyer for vocational
labor or for intellectual labor of any
sort, he is richly rewarded, though the
particular knowledge thus acquired
may never be turned to direct opera
tive account. Ability to distinguish
is increased by Distinguishing; ability
to assort is increased by asserting ;
ability to remember is increased by re-
memberihg; ability to critlcise is in
creased by criticising; ability to a
chieve Is increased by achieving; and
so the right rule Of Judgment, IN rela'
ton to any intellectual pursuit, is to
ascertain how far we have increased,
or may increase, by it, not only our
intellectual possessions but our intel
lectual power. by this rule both early
education and self.education should be
examined and determined and by this
rule too tie real worth and rival claims
Of classical culture and mathematical
study should he weighed and settled.

"Remember, now" said an Indiana
Daily Los Angeles herald. [microfilm reel] (Los Angeles [Calif.]) 1876-1884, 1879-10-31

THERE is little doubt but that
the exaggerated opinions and ba-
rangues of such men as Denis
Kearney have produced violent
reaction in favor of the Republican
party. The remedy is u simple
one. 1t is for those who are DEM
ocrats by instinct to fall back into
their proper place in that grand
old historic organization. They
may be assured of one thing, and
that is that every Plutocrat, every
natural snob and every lover of
a "strong government" will
do his utmost to assure the success of
the Republican party in the
ensuing Presidential election. We
say this without intending any dig
respect to the Old Guard of the Re-
publican party, which is composed
of materials strong, staunch, sa-
gacious though INSCRIPTIONS.
With anything like division in the
ranks of their opponents, Republi.
can success 10 California next year
is inevitable.

SHOULD Gen. w. S. Hancock
prove to be the next candidate Of
the Democratic party for President
he will receive very enthusiastic
support in Los Angeles county. AT
the outbreak of the war Gen. Han.
cock was stationed here and he is
we'll known to many of our people.
Pretty much all the old time resi-
dents have met him, and he is a
favorite with every one who en-
joys his personal acquaintance. AS
the Union General who first an.
nounced that the military power
was subordinate to the civil he has
a claim upon the good will of his
countrymep, irrespective of party.
Should Mr.. Tilden fail to receive
the Democratic nomination next
year Gen. Hancock would loom up
as very formidable contestant for
the headship of the Democracy.

Too MUCH commentator can
not be given to our horticultural
Society for their wise determina-
tion to have spring exhibition oil
our citrus fruits. 1t is haZarding
nothing to say that in no spot on
earth can a more charming display
be made than in Los Angeles in
the spring months. Golden oranges
can be heaped up in pyramids, dec
GRATED with orange blossoms with
out end. And SO of lemons and
lines. The fragrance would be al
most excessive. Then our floral
display would be simply incompar-
able. The market garden would be
represented by strawberries, green
peas and every esculent which, in
colder climates, holds back till
mid-June or July. The idea is
capital one, and it cannot fail to
bear frult-no pun intended. 1t viii
be the distinctive exhibit Of

which will show that this section
differs from Oregon and Washing
ton Territory. We expect to see
the idea caught up with enthusi-
asm-by our orchardists and nur-
serymen. The tree exhibit will be
worth of itself the coming of miles
to see.

WE have two important trans
continental railway announce
ments. One is from Gov. Brown,
the Vice President of the Texas
Pacific, who says that that corpo-
ration will not again be an appii-
cant for aid from Congress, but will
build the road from its own pri-
vate resources. The other is from
Mr.. Baker, who says that he has
$40, 600, 900 with which to push for
ward the st. Louis and San Fran
cisco Railway, formerly the At
lantic & Pacific, from its present
terminus at Vinita, in the Indian
Territory, to.the Pacific Coast. No
wonder all the rail mills of the
country are running full handed,
night and day, with all these torpid
projects awakening to life.

IT is generally understood that
Hon. Frank McCoppin has sue
ceeded, In the councils of the Cen,
trail and Southern Pacific Rail-
ways, to the place left vacant by
the death of Gen. Colton-that OF
general financial agent of these
powerful corporations. This is a
responsible and lucrative position.
A recent decision of the Supreme
Court Of this State places the Hon.
orable Frank in the category of
whom it was said in the Scriptures
that If they already had store of
good things other pleasaunces
should be added unto them. The
tribunal of last resort holds that
Mr.. McCoppin is entitled to eight
months salary as Harbor Commits
sioner, though Mr.. Burns has dis
charged tho duties of that office.
Though strong effort has been
made to declare Mr.. McCoppin not
q citizen of the United States, the
Supreme Court proclaim him an
office-holder of the State of CaIifor-
MIA In spite of the Vaccinations of
his enemies, and maugre the fact
that he has officially had nothing
to do, poor Burns discharging his
functions vicariousiy for the eX-
Mayor. This ia probably an in
stance OF involuntary generosity
on the part of an office holder.

THE path to office is not always
strewn with flowers. Freud, the
Workingmen's candidate for Coun-
ty Clerk of San Francisco, has in
sisted on a recount. The law pro-
vides that in contests of this kind
the contestant shall bear the cost
of the recount. The officers whose
duty it is to supervise the operation
insist upon Freud's putting up the
sum needed to cover eXpenses-S42
a day-punctually every morning
before they begin their task. This
conduct on their part shows either
a great distrust of Freud's pecuni-
cry responsibility or great official
churlishness.

THE Wauyaman dry washer

THE Waugaman dry washer has
come into favor and the machine is
being bought very generally. There
are thousands of square miles III
Los Angeles, San Diego and San
Bernardino counties that, on the
dry wash system, if it should prove
successful, would pay handsomely.
1t is not too much TO say that,
from Bodie Bluff to the "MOnu-
mentn on the Mexican line-a dis
lance of nearly five hundred miles
there are tens of thousands Of
gulches which would yield large
returns to the owner Of q dry

WE have heard SO much abon

WE have heard so much about
Democratic "bull.dozing" of white
and colored Republicans at the
South that we have thought it the
right thing to do to give the reverse
side OF the medal. The other day
ve published an extract from the
louisville Courier-Joaraal, which
gave very ingenious view of the
violence question in that State.
We take, from the Bellesontaine
Examiner, of September goth, the
following, which shows that even
Ia Ohio Democratic colored man
can only avow his political prefer
ences at the risk of his life. Mark
how plain q tale will put these
hypocrltes down. We quote:
On Monday afternoon of this
week, small party of Democrats
from this place accompanied Mr..
A. ]. Davidson, a colored Demo
cratic speaker, to point in Boxes
creek township, this county, where
he was posted for speech.
Arriving in the vicinity of where
the speech was to be made, they
asked q well-to-do but narrow
minded and bigoted Republican
farmer II they could have their
horses put in his barn and fed,
promising to pay him well for his
trouble. They received an insolent
refusal. This was the first intima-
ton they got that the right of free
speech was at discount in that
strong Republican locality.
The meeting was large and rea-
sonnbly orderly, and the speaker
was we'll on with his speech, when
= mob of drunken blacks and
whites appeared upon the scene,
and by their riotous aud threaten
ing demonstrations, compelled the
speaker to cut short his remarks.
The preparation of the party ac'
companying the speaker to depart,
was the signal for the mob to at
tempt to get In its murderous work
and with shouts of "Remembel
Fort Pillow ! damn the Demo
cratic Niger ~ "Cut his &C
id heart out ~ ETC., the scoun'
drels began to press upon the car
riages. But there were men o.
courage and determination there tt
oppose them-friends of free speech
who knew their rights, and know
ing dared maintain them. Revolv
ers were promptly drawn, and thu
mOhitea coOllv warmed to stand of
or accept the consequences. AMI
thus was the life of most worthy
coloreu man (whose only offenst
consisted in making Democratic
speech) saved from the fury of
drunken Republican mob !!
We submit these facts to th'
people of Logan county, and asl
them to consider well their duty
since it has come to pass that tn,
sacred right Of free speech can onl.
be exercised among them at tn
muzzles of Democratic revolyers.
