A MOVEMENT is on foot to con.
solidste the Horticultural and the
Agricultural Park Societies. On a
cursory view this seems to be Of
doubtful utility. Both societies
have been Of notable benefit to
this section. and their cordial rival
ry would doubtless result more to
the benefit of all concerned than
their consolidation. We regard
Agricultural Park ~ the best guar
Antee for our advancing stock in-
terests that could possibly be de.
vised. Taken as q race course
alone it is, by long odds, the finest
in the United States, dwarfing its
San Francisco and Sacramento
rivals to the point where the COM
parison Is emphatically "odorous"
to both the northern and central
strougholds. In the short period
during which 1t has been organ
ized, the Horticultural Society has
been an unmixed blessing to this
section. It has aroused our farm
ers and horticulturists as by
hugle blast, and they have put
forth creditable efforts, which have
been noted from Point Conception
to the Mexican line. There is one
point of view from which the Bor.
ticultural Society, as at present
constituted, would seem to be an
advantage. 1t admits of those who
have conscientious scruples about
Identifying themselves with the
turf thraRing their whole energy
into Pathological and agricultural
displays. ON the other hand, the
devotees 0ll0Ae turf can always be
relied upon to come up to the sup
port Of an interest which appeals 10
the pride of Southern Californians.
The notable success of Los Angeles
bred stock, of late years. is q slim
illus which will spur the owners Of
fine h0rse.fesh in Southern CALI
fornia to new efforts. Unless there
be some overwhelming reasons to
the contrary, we cannot help think.
Ing that it is to the best interest
OF our people that both Societies
should be preserved In unimpaired
vlgor. As yoks.fellows, though
distinct, and both pulling cor.
daily together, they will make
their influence felt for good.

especially % to the Inhabitants Of
the Pacific Coast. Hope springs
eternal In the human breast, and
No cannot repress an aspiration
that this may prove to be so.
There was time In the critical
history Of the Trojans when it
would have been wise In them to
have distrusted the Greeks bear
ing gifts. We cannot rid ourselves
of the suspicion that a treaty ne.
gotiated by Hayes's Commission
will be found, on close inspection,
to have concealed In 1t an African
Of formidable dimensions. 1t will
probably be found to be q nero
diplomatic dodge or evasion, W ich

the Chinese Six Companies to
modify the phraseology Of their
previous contracts. or course, we
may be wrong, and the gentlemen
named on the Com mission,
yielding to the earnest per
suasiops of John F. Swift, from
this State, may have carried
the negotiation though In good
faith. Should this prove to be the
case the HERALD will cordially
acknowledge its mistake and give
the due need of praise where 1t
belongs. But what q howl will
arise from the centers of Eastern
sentim entalism II this Coast really
proves to have had square deaW

Hunting an Eastern Terminus.

its movements to the San Fran

Louisiana Oranges.

There are not many persons who
appreciate the ex tent OF our orange
trade, or who realize what an enor-
nous source Of revenue the culture
OF this delicious fruit may be made.
On the 28th Of this month there
were shipped from here on the Chi
cago. st. Louis and New Orleans
railroad, eleven carloads Of or.
anRe-, destined to Denver, st..
Louis. Cincinnati, Chicacp aud
Evansville. There were Ia this
hipmeDt 1920 barrels, and average
ing the barrel at 800, we have a
total Of 396. QUO oranges sent in one
day by Que railway to supply the
increasing demand In the West for
Louisiana's juicy and luscious
fruit, which Is far superior to the
oranges Of Cuba, aud even the much
vaunted fruit of Florida.
Between the LIST of October and
the 18th there were shipped by the
same road to the Western cities
q, 900 barrels, an aggregate Of g..
300 QUO oranges. The demand for
this healthful and universally fav-
orite fruit is such that 1t can never
be fully supplied, 90 that there is
every inducement for our people to
go largely into orange culture.
