In is heartily to be hoped that,
hereafter, there shall be more
hearty accord between the several
classes of producers OF Los Angeles
county. Four or five years ago it
was possible to get up spirited and
interesting speed prog rammes and
thorough expeditions of stock and
soil products. Los Angeles county
never stood near 90 we'll as she
does to-day. And yet there is little
use In disgusting the fact that one
who takes warm interest in the
periodical expeditions Of this coun-
~, and which have given eclat to
this section, experiences a feeling
Of unmixed disappointment now.
Why palter with the fact that we
need concert of action ard the
stimulus Of the latent Iiberality Of
our citizens? Let us take a new
departure now; and by united ac-
ton. assure good purses aud splen-
did exhibits both of stock and soil
products. There have, of late,
been cross purposes in this section
Let US see to it that they shall
never, hereafter, be apparent, tt
the detrimsnt of Southern Califor.
mia and the Impairment of a just
local pride.

look Is the attitude OF Italy, which,
for over thousand years, was
made up of score of petty States,
to which France gave form and
consistency, and which France
made into nation by the in.
terposition of her potent sword.
We cannot think that the people
of Italy can share that infatuation
OF her sovereign which threatens
to reduce the Latin nations to an
Insignificant position in the coun-
ellis of Europe. France oncs dis
posed Of, Italy would be but dis
prixed lacquey to the tremendous
Germanic power which would rise
on her ruins, and Austria would be
q contemplate tumble of amor
phous and even antagonistic ele-
ments, deprived Of her Germanio
population. In view of the devel-
opments of to-day It is hard to real
izs that Frederick the Great,
scarcely more than one hundred
years ago. said that, If he were
monarch of France, not gun
should be fred in Europe without
his consent. France just now is
suffering from two .calamities, the
absence Of electric and magnetic
leaders and of far-seeing states
men. The time was when, with
her Astounding wealth, and with a
Richelieu or n Mazsrin at the head
Of her civil administration, che
would not be obliged to look long
for allies. AS is is now, the single
Republic of Europe seems to be in
q state of painful isolation. Even
Louis PHILIPPE, the Citizen Mon
arch, could have given better ac-
count of himself than the present
Republican administration of
France seems able to do. The un-
fortunate and ungrateful attitude
OF Italy recalls a violent speech
made by M. Theirs in opposition to
Louis Napoleon's scheme OF reha.
bilitating Italy as nation. That
fsr-seeipg statesman said that such
an event would be found to be o
menacs to France. Victor EN-.
manuel was a warm-blooded and
admirable man, in many respects.
He never forgot the tremendous
debt of gratitude which he and his
people owed 10 the neighboring
Latin race. His degenerate son
Humbert, however, is without a
single Que of the redeeming traits
of his father. He has voluntarily
accepted the task Of emphasizing
ingratitude, and of SO control
ling the policy of Italy as to de-
liver over the Latin race bound
hand and foot to the Germans and
the Muscovites. Fortunately, ly-
ing back of the dynastic purposes
Of q lot of echeming despots, is the
great heart of peoples, in which
the German of Republican in
stincts sympathizes with bis
brother of the French Republic,
and in which the Russian helot
aims not at aggression but at
emancipation. When the projec
tors of the new Holy Alliance start
out to execute their malign pro-
jscts, they may find out that peo-
pies, like rulers, have plans of their
own; and that Europe is far ripper
for the determination of the masses,
Irrespective of geographical lines,
than they have dreamed of. In the
developments of the future demar.
cations Of race are destined to
count for very little; and the first
overt step made in the line Of riv.
citing the chains OF despotlsm may
result in their falling prone to the
ground, In discovered links.

The whole talk of the Star Route
investigation has always seemed to
~ highly absurd. The Republic
can party dares to investigate
nothing. It's administration of its
national trust, during the last
twenty years, has really been du.
plicate Of the Cashier Baldwin's
administration OF Newark, New
Jersey, bank. After confidence
Of years, directors and stockholders
and depositors, waken up and End
that the institution, in which they
oonfided, 10 simply honey.oombed
with fraud. They thought they
were buttressed by a pillar of gran
lite and find, In truth, that they
have been leaning on q frail and
swaying reed. For twenty years
the honest Republican masses have
been asking for bread, and they
viii find, in the bitterness of the
scriptural simile found In Mat
thew, that they have Teen tender
Cd stone. Probably the most i'm.
pudent and infamous thing ever
known in American politics was
John 6herman's destinations ask
log for the presentation Of the re-
port, In the United States Senate,
relating to alleged corruptiens in
his administration of the Treasury
Department.. There was a brazen
and pharisaic atmosphere about
this whole incident. But, when
Senator Farley, Of this State, got
up and moved that the accompany
ing testimony should also be pro-
ducsd, the Ohio fumblechsok
changed his whole attitude. With
. singular and unexampled hardi-
hood, he objected to the production
OF the evidence on which the whits-
washing report was asserted to be
founded! We have here the In
spiriting spectacle OF sx-Secretary
Sherman demanding the exculpa-
terry report Of lot of Treasury
stool-pigecns, and yet trying to
shut out from the people OF the
United States the evidence which
would show what hypocritical and
partial thing those who desired to
shield him had done! There 10,
after all, some consolation in
knowing that the only time in the
history Of the United States when
suoh . scandal could be possible
was In the infamous era in which
such public men as John shesman,
whose business is politics and moth
ing else, on salaries Of from five to
eight thousand dollars q year, and
whose possession, besides, involved
their living In the expensive capt.
tai Of the nation, could become
millionairss.

An Extraordinary story.

]
Yesterday morning public interest
was excited by an announcement which
appeared in the papers that the infant
daughter Of DR.. DOwn.%, divisional
Police surgeon in kcntiSh-town road
had been kidnapped 10y her nurse, BE.
fore the intimatiun met the eye of thu
reader, the child had been discovered,
and the nursr, having been appreheud'
ed, was charged at the Marylcb"nt
Police Court with Kidnapping the doc,
/ tors daughter. The extraordinary de-
| fence 10 which she rrSOrted was that the
child was her own, and that it had been
palmed OFF upon DR.. Downes by his wife.
Her story, which is very cirrunnStantial,
and can he easily verified or lliSprUyc,l-
is to the effect that not only did Mrs
DowneS PASS of the child in dispute ~
her own by articles which certainly
ought not to have been able to deceive
the practical eye Of Police surgeon,
but that second child was procured
last January in similar way, and sur
reptitiouSly introduced into the family
as a Legitimate offspring of DR.. DowneS.
The nurse, Il young woman Of -, r0uld
hardly have invented Il story 50 I'M
necessarily detailed and Circulnstantial
and yet that can bc more incredible
than that n lady who had already had
four children should have rr>orted to
such deception in order to add fifth
and sixth infant to her already numcr-
GUS family.
