been supposed that Croker cher
ishes an enmity to Los Angeles on
account of q certain notable coun-
Gil scene, but 1t don't look like 1t.
We should not be surprised
If the developments. of the near
future would show both Stan
ford and Crocker settled dewn iu
Los Angeles county, cheek by
jowl, as large landowners, deter.
mined to live as long as our spe-
clally preservatiye climate would
admit of their doing. For our part,
we should be glad TO see them
both here, as there could not be a
greater guarantee than their pres
ence would afford OF u pleasant
railway deal for this section. Their
residence here would mean at least
ten more years of life to their al
lotled span, and we cannot divest
ourselves of the belief that one OF
both of them will be here within
the next two years.

THOMAS NICHOLSON,

THOMAS NICHOLSON, in his
talk at Tucson, yesterday, on re-
turning from his trip to Sonora,
struck the true railway keynote for
this section when he declared his
preference for moderate rates OF
fares and frsights, and policy
which builds up q country, by en-
cauraging settlement aud develop
msnt. This, we are Informed, lie to
be the policy of the Southern Pa.
cific Railway. If 1t is carried out,
1t will be money in the pockets of
that powerful corporation and will
make them friends and business.
Daily Los Angeles herald., 1881-12-02

WHILE of course we do not
claim the right to go behind the
fading of the court in the carp
brothers investigation at Tomb
stone we nevertheless cannot re-
frain from warning the people of
Arizona that, if in addition to the
lawlsssness which prevails there
on almost every side, there shall
arise q suspicion that ministerial
officers uss the cover of their off,
cial positions 10 take vengeance
upon their personal enemies, the
effect upon the territory cannot
fail to be inimical. It Is certainly
bad enough to have to run the
gauntlet of cowboys and despera.
does of every kind; but if to this
by no means uncomfortable peril
is added lawIess set of officials,
many people-apd people who are
In no sense "tenderfoots," ut that
will prefer not to take the
chances OF Arizona life. Admit
ing the fact that the Judge who
tried the Earps was conversant
with all the evidence which
was developed in the case to. the
minutest detail, it is nevertheless
true that there are great numbers
of Arjzonans who look upon the
transaction in different light
from that accredited by the court.
While there is no use of crying
over spilled milk, and the case
seems to have been disposed of for
good, yet the circumstances are
such that it behooves the people of
Arizona TO insure their Oblivion by
the cultivation, at least upon the
part of the officers of the law and
the respectable classes, of law
abiding and peaceable spirit. The
Apaohes and the criminal classes
have always done and will con-
tinue to do Arizona much injury,
but the evil ought to be made to
stop there.
Daily Los Angeles herald., 1881-12-02

PRECISELY the difficulties which
were encountered when the Union
and Central Pacific Railways were
first opened are now experienced
on the Southern overland. While,
fortunately, no disasters have been
reported, detentions of trains have
been quite numerous. In a little
while all this snarl will be
Strengthened out, and the weak
features will have been done away
with. Culverts and bridges will
be strengthened and modified to
suit the local exigencies of the
country. From the start the new
overland road has had one advan-
tage, its rails are steel from the
San Gorgonio Summit East, and it
requires but little time to adjust
the minor difficulties. AS winter
is fairly under way, the fact has
been demonstrated that snow sheds
| and other nuisances, which make
| travelling on the Union and Gen.
trail Pacific 30 uncomfortable, will
not be known on the new southern
routes. In addition, the mild
temperature which prevails on at
least fifteen hundred miles of the
new route will be highly attractive
to most people. The southern lat
itudes for railway travel are
further recommended, of late, by
the present or almost Immediately
prospective opening of the new
through rail route to New Orleans.
1t ia to be hoped that arrange
ments will soon be made between
the various parties to the southern
SYSTEM of roads which will admit
of any one who desires to go East
making the detour via New Or
leans, without great additional ex-
pense. AS respects tourists in
SeueTaii WIN uoSiro w Visib tho a.
cific Coast, no travelling expert
enee could we'll be more attractive
than to go from New York to st.
Louis, thence by steamer on the
Mississippi to New Orleans, and
from New Orleans. by rail, to Los
Angeles and San Francisco. That
this route will soon come greatly
in vogue We do not for moment
doubt.

Something About Bricks.

In the antiquity of the brick as 4 building
material it is needless, nor is it indeed our
intention, to insist. The great national collec-
tions of Europe, the British Museum foremost
III the number, show us bricks sun dried and
baked, from the ruins Of Nineveh, and from
the days of that city to the present moment
bricks have never ceased to be an important
instrument in the hands of the builder That
throughout Asia Minor they were largely
employed we have seen, only very recently,
proved in these columns; M. Rayet, in his
work on Miletus, having shown that the far
famed palace OF CrCesus was built OF no more
costly materials than honest bricks What
those bricks were, and their quality. are even
to this day appreciated by the natives, who
for many centuries have plundered the ruins
to build Or patch up their own even more
ruinous houses. The use Of bricks among
the Romans, who largely employed them as
building materials as we see in the familiar
instance of the Temple of Concord, has been
more than once the subject OF the inquiry of
industrious antiquities for the Romans were
not content with producing the fiat tile-like
brick which is so often to be met with in the
lower portions OF antique structures scattered
over the Empire. and that are krown in Eng
land, but ther bricks were indelib)y stamped
with the mark OF their maker, the names of
the reigning consuls, and sometimes the year.
From this source, then, more than one patient
archaologist has gathered rich store of in
formation. But few inquirers have ventured
tar on the apparently arid and difficult road,
which has hence remained little explored.

Plea For Children.

There is no sovereignty on the earth more
abSurdly absolute, more capable of out
rageous abuse and tyranny than that of the
household monarchy. Next to it in point of
unenviable capacity for the abuses of arbi-
trary domination comes the monarchy of the
school-room. In either case, children are
the subjects-tor the most part, pitifully
enough, unconsidered and defenseless. They
are just in the condition of weakness, ignor-
ance, ineXperience and dependence, which
entities them to the utmost injustice, and
often brutality. They cannot retort. They
often cannot explain. They can ask for no
forms OF examination. Nothing stands be-
tween them and an almost irresponsible per-
son who is law-maker, judge and executive
They are easily frightened into suspicious
aspects and into talsehoods, which are their
only conceivable means of self-prOtection
Even their trankest confessions are sometimes
utterly false. How to enter the household
and erect there some more desirable constitu-
honal forms of government by which the
abuse Of absolute power shall be restrained
does not appear. But it would seem as if
our school rooms, ut least, might be some
what reformed in this respect, and the chill
dren in them provided with securities and
projections against the outbreaks of titful,
passionate and, at best. stupid persons who
use teachers position with a tyrant's capri
clous temper.

Conversation.

Conversation is the choicest flower of cul-
ture. 1t needs, in order to come to anything
near perfection, a consciousness of inward and
outward conditions, the absence Of any one
Of which is fatal. The delicate exchange
and alienation which it implies is impossi-
bic not only if there is not some parity OF
value in the thoughts exchanged, but also
the tact and art Of selection among them
1t requires, above all things, a light hand,
the power of taking up q subject easily and
readily, Of holding it not too tightly, of
adapting the treatment of it to the interlocu-
tors need OR point Of view, of loosing it when
it has ceased to serve as q mental stimulus
and OF taking up another with the same
readiness, to be dropped, in its turn, as soon
as 1t has served its purpose. A thorough
discussion OF subject is always out of place
in conversation-you want hints, guesses,
glimpses, the suggestion of varied points of
view, side-lights, the play of fancy and
humOr, even the ironical treatment of ones
own serious interests, all colored by direct
reference to the individual mind to which
you are for the moment brought near. To
dull natures good conversationalist always
looks inconsistent. His many-sidedness seems
contradictory; his instinct and need to be all
things to all men has an air of insicerity
about it, while in fact it is only a sublimated
veracity; his sense of the relativity of truths
and of the multitudinous phases, sides,
shapes and references, wears to the narrow,
plodding understanding look of sophistry
and frivolity. The homely wit, which stays
where it grew in its own little plot of earth,
is puzzled at the vagabond instinct which
sends other minds soaring and crcling in
search OF fresh and distant prospects,
