. good taste and Judgment to be
commended, is generally applied
to the Reverend .combatant. II
we are to trust to the off.hand and
unpremeditated exchange of cour-
tesies which generally signalizes
these meetings, Mr.. Auditor Dunn
is In danger Of having the top of
his head shot off by Mr.. Registrar
Tharp. OF one thing We are con-
vlnced, and that is that the Re-
publican plan for "bull.dozing" the
voter and counting In San Francis
co for Garfield Is meeting with
very serious distractions. or
course, we know the old adage that
when gentlemen meet compliments
pass, but this wholesome old rule
hardly explains the warmth and
fsrocity of the struggle between
Tharp and the Election Commits
sioners. We have never for a mo-
ment doubted that the object Of
those who advised Gov. Perkins to
remove Registrar Kaplan was to
put the election machinery of San
Francisco into unscrupulous hands
that would repeat the fraud of 1876.
Indeed, it is q matter Of common
report in San Francisco that, to
avoid the scandal OF removing
Kaplan, that gentleman was offer'
ed by Republicans $4,000 to re-
sign. The responsibility of remov.
Ing him was great, but it had to be
undergone or the unholy scheme
would have had to be aban-
doned. 1t is pleasant to know
that the Louisiana carpet.bagger,
Tharp, is experiencing such diff
culties in carrying out his contract
that he loses his temper, and talks
about blowing peoples heads off
All that the Messrs. Kalloch and
Dunn have to do is TO persevere In
the way they have begun. They
have evidently struck the righl
scent, or Tharp's doublings woulG
not be so painful and apparent.

At an average weight Of 14o lbs.

handsome total Of 675.0 bushels
Of wheat ~ the yield Of the San
Fernando valley this year,
There 10 great emulation in the
threshing operations in this busy
valley. Mr.. A. E. Smith, with q
four cylinder Gold Medal Thresh-
ing Machine. at three sittings daily,
has averaged 1000 sacks . day.
When It 10 borne In mind that at
least half an hour is lost In shifting
1t each sitting, this is very rapid
work indeed. Mr.. Smith has thus
far In the season threshed out
so, 600 sacks.
The Messrs. Smith & Patton re-
port . yield Of $4,000 sacks from
their three thousand acres. Some
Of their land has gone as high as a
ton and q half Of wheat to the
acre.
The quality Of the grain is said
to be exceptionally fine and heavy.
A comparison with last year will
show the splendid character Of this
years growth. The average weight
to the sack over the whole valley
last year was only 127 pounds. This
year 1t 10 easily 140 pounds.
The outside world may at once
make up its mind that Los Angs.
les has been added to the wheat
producing counties Of California
In addition to the San Fernando
valley. en- rough wheat has beer
raised In other portions Of the
county to bring the total up t.
more than q million bushels. ThiI
is but the entering wedge. Having
discovered their ability to rails
specially fine wheat on land
which were formerly supposed
to be useless for any
purpose save that of q sheep pas
ture, energetic and industriou
men stand ready to put their hand

Daily Los Angeles herald., 1880-09-19

THE other day we gave some
speculations Of our own as to the
probabilities Of the wheat market
which were founded upon q careful
collation. OF the several European
reports Of crop prospects. The New
York Herald, Of the 9th inst, says
Of the English outlook:
The English wheat crop this
year, though considerably better
than that Of 1879, 10 somewhat be-
low an average. The early promise
was excellent, but heavy, drench-
ing rains In the month Of July i'm.
paired the filling out Of the kernel,
20 that, In spite Of the excellent
harvest weather In tho latter part
Of the season, the crop has fallen
short both In quality and abund-
ance. Most OF the other English
crops have been good, particularly
oats and barley. OF the root crops
turnips are far above the average
and tho potato harvest 10 magnifi-
cent. An abundant supply Of other
kinds Of food 10 an alleviation ol
tho short wheat crop, since the
bread and more roots.
In the course Of its article, the
Herald says that the wheat crop In
the United States this year is al
least fifty millions of bushels
greater than the enormous crop Of
1879. Our New York contempo-
rary, In its roview Of the condition
Of the English agriculturists, says:
English agriculture is subject to
hard conditions. In most other
countries deficient harvest raises
prices, and there is Q partial COM
pensati0n for the shortness OF the
crop In the increased value per
bushel. But the English farmers
are deprived Of this advantage In
years when the American crop 10
abundant. The price Of wheat In
Eng land 10 regulated by the price
In America, and 1t DO happens this
year that we shall be able to sell
wheat In the English market at
rates % low that the tenant farmers
cannot materially reduce their &C.
cumulated debts out of tho i'm
proved yield Of their land.
It 10 thus apparent that the
Herald looks for low prices this
year. Our own review covered .
much wider extent Of territory
than that to which our New York
namesake restricted itself, and we
are inclined to stand by the con.
illusions reached In It.

Hon. Marshall Jewell, Chairman

New York:
We have complete returns, with
the exception ofa few distant plan.
tations, and I give you summary
Of the result: In the election of
1870 the Republicans lacked 1045
votes of majority. This year we
have made gains in twelve coun-
ties, held our own in two counties
and in two other counties we have
made slight losses. Our net gain
in the whole sixteen counties is
reckoned ut 1900, as a minimum,
with o possible maximum of 1900,
making Gov. Davis's re election a
certainty. Ills election Is no long
er denied by his opponents. His
plurality over Plaisted will proba-
bly, not vary much from 400. We
have chosen three-fourths. of the
county officers, more than two
thirds of the State Senate and q
large majority of the House
Of Representatives, giving us
complete coutrol of the
State government in all it's
branches. Our .only regret is o
failure to regain the Fourth and
Fifth Congressional districts. We
succeed in reducing the majority
in each to about one.third the Flu.
sion majority two years ago; but
Democratic alarm over the result
in Vermont caused the application
of arguments in both districts, dur.

New YORK, Sept. 1S.-The Ma
tionsl Democratic Committee has
issued the following statement rel
alive to the election in Maine: The
latest reliable and official returns
received from Maine give returns
from 42O towns, giving Plaisted
70,O19 and Davis 70,69S; Republi-
can majority, 679. In the same
towns in 1876 the opposition vote
was 67,499; Republicans, 72,765;
Republican majority 1926; Re-
publican loss in 1880 from corre-
spending election In 1875, 1857.
There are So towns and plantations
yet to be heard from. A relative
gain in these towns, as compared
with 1876. would give US, at low
estimate, over 1000 majority for the
