Los ANGELES has ranged herself
about at the top of the California
counties for Increase in wealth and
population in the decade between
1870 and 1880. While gain of one
hundred and twenty.tbree per
cent. for the county at large may
not realize the expectations of the
more sanguine, 1t is as rapid an adj
vance as is consistent with true
progress. There are some features
of our Roadway worthy of note.
Seven years ago the country below
Anaheim scarcely boosted Of any
settlement whatever until San
Juan Capistrano was reached.
Where Westminster, Orange,
Santa Ana and the heavy Gospel
Swamp settlements now stand,
several of them with a vote larger
than many ambitious Eastern viii
lagos hundred years old. there
was then absolutely nothing in the
shape Of habitations to be seen. The
same marvel Is to be witnessed at
Pasadena and, owing to excep.
tional causes, at Santa Monica.
There are three or four COL
onies at least in Los Angeles
county whose ratio of growth has
rarely been surpassed In
an agricultural region. River
side, in San Bernardino county, is
also an instance of an astonishing
ly rapid growth. We should not
be surprised, owing to the impe-
tus lately given to our wheat and
vineyard interests to see, shortly,
q resumption of this rushing set
Element. There are half dozen
ranches in Los Angeles county ad.
mirably adapted for a repetition Of
the Westminster, Orange, Santa
Ana and Pasadena experiments.
The Lsguna, La MERGED, Cienegs,
San Joaquin, and other properties,
will ultimately be the centers of
large rural populations and of re-
munerative and beneficial colonial
plans. Its nearness to the city
would seem to. point the Laguna
out as the next scene for a colonial
experiment. 1t is compact and
we'll located body Of land, Of at
least ten thousand acres, every
inch of which could be irrigated,
but most OF which does not need
any artificial moisture. The La
guna ought, in the next ten years,
to be the home of five hundred
families. Every twenty acre
patch of such lands, properly
worked, would lay the foundation
for modest competency.

about forty men. The fight lasted
several hours, in which some thir-
ty were killed aud as many more
wounded on both sides. Most of

The Republican organs have be.
gun to shake the bloody shirt q
little earlier than they Intended.
They have discovered q tremen.
dous Ku.Klux conspiracy in the
State Of Blank, and the account
which they give of the proceedings
Of this gang of desperadoes reads
like q six column article fresh
from the pen of the excellent HUI
morist Of the New York Times.
These unparalleled ruffians have
been spotted by the organs, and
kilograms to that effect have been
sent to the Cincinna att Gazette, and
to the Chicago Tribune, and to
other organs on the circuit. It has
not only been discovered that the
villains are operating in the State
of Blank, but that they have their
headquarters in the county of
Hiatus, near the town Of Dash.
The information to this effect is
private, but 1t has been made pub
lie by the organs at great expense.
Mr.. has been torn to pieces
with q corkscrew; Mr.. - has
been shot under the coat tail with
q chunk 81 fat meat, and the unfor-
tunate Mr.. has been warned
to leave. 1t IL to be observed that
the similarity In the names Of
these oppressed gents is very strik-
ing, and the supposition at once
arises that they belong to the same
family-at the very least to the
same congregation. The affair
would be mysterious under any
circumstances, but with the State,
county, town and victims all labor
ing under the same genera. name
and address, the situation becomes
really romantic. Blank, Dash,
Hiatus, and - bear a remarka.
bic resemblance to each other, so
far as the public is concerned, and
the most sensitive philanthropist,
regardless of sections, will scarcely
know which to weep for. Under
these circumstances bur advice to
the organs Is to look out for their
liars. They appear to be wholly
unframed. They have the humor
OF Eli Perkins, without his genius
for compiling names and dates, and
they will presently make the great
Republican organization ridicu-
lOus. Once more, esteemed con-
temporories, look after your liars.
Employ the old professionals.

A CAREFUL. observation of the
field in the Fourth Congressional
district leads us to the conclusion
that whomsoever the Democrats
nominate has an unusually good
chance Of election. Wallace Leach,
ESQ, made entirely too good, able
and staunch fight last year to be
ignored by tho Convention. He
will doubtless rally o formidable
following in that body. AS an An.
geief1o, however, we must be ex.
cused for pressing, with great en-
ergy, the claims of Mr.. L. j. Rose,
citizen of this county. Even
amongst Republicans 1t is general.
ly admitted that Mr.. Rose would
poll tremendous vote in Los An.
geles county-a vote SO large as to
be of itself almost sufficient to de-
termine the contest. But that is
by no means all. Mr.. Roses char
acter as o representative citizen of
Southern California is known all
over the district. He has done
more than any other one man to
develop our distinctive Interests of
the vineyard and semi-tropical
fruits. While not stump speaker
In the ordinary sense of the words,
our Sunny Slope vineyardist can
be relied upon to present the Wig
orous and original ideas which
characterize him in n clear
and intelligent manner. His
large property interests in this
county and district, all acquired by
the sweat of his brow, Joined to an
intellectual acumen not often sur
passed, would be guarantee that
our Congressional concerns would
be well attended 10 by him. No
man better than Mr.. Rose under.
stands the needs of this section.
II nominated, his election would
be assured. He would get vote
largely independent of party. AS
to a third party candidate, if he
should remain in the field to the
end, the small vote he would re-
ceive would be made up of larger
percentage of Republicans than of
Democrats. The Democratic por-
ton OF the Workingmen's party
has largely returned to its natural
place In the Democratic ranks;
aud, when the bugle-notes of q
campaign of exceptional warmth
and excitement have sounded oil
along the line, a very great effort
indeed will be needed to persuade y
spectator that anything but The
old battle between the two greal
national parties is under way. Few
men, when great contest, fraughl
with the essential Issues of the Re.
public. is being decided, will

attitude of cold and indif.
ferent isolation. The Democrats

Denver and Rio Grande shares was
due to the earnings of the third

times greater than last year, on an
increased mileage of only one.hAlf.
The figures are SSS,s0O for 1880,
against Sl7,S0O in 1879. The sud-
den advance in Central Pacific
stock to-day was due TO the report
that the time for the second option

and that Huntington would
not renew the option with the SYM
dictate except at much higher
