The Feliz Rancho Water Rights.

EDITOR HERALD: Some one, under the
title of "Regador," vents his spleen
against the Feliz Rancho water rights,
in this mornings issue Of the Times. If
"Regador" had as much brains as there
is bosh in his communication, he would
not be so silly as to talk of the decision
of "the subordinate court" Turn, Mr.,
"Regador," to the 50 CAL, p. 469, and
you will find decision of the Supreme
Court affirming the decision of the lower
court The decisions of both courts
were, to some extent, based upon FORM
er adjudication of the rights of the same
parties to the waters in question. The
city was the appellant in this last case,
and was represented by Col. Godfrey
and A. w. Hutton. [See case cited
above. How many'decisions adverse to
the city it will take to satisfy "Rega-
DOR" | do not know. One thing do
know. There has been no encroach-
ment on the rights of the city by the
Feliz Ranch people, claiming under the
Baldwin title, at any time this season.
At no time have we taken our share of
the water. Suppose we did, for day
or more, take all the water in the ditch,
if in doing so we did not get our eight
cubic feet per second, how was the city
injured? Did we encroach upon the
rights of the city, unless we took more
than the law allowed us No sane per-
son will claim that, while the Baldwin
case stands, we are not entitled to the
water by it awarded us. This amount
we intend to use until it is taken away
from us, if the necessities of the ranch
requires it's use. Los Angeles city, how.
ever, ought to be thankful to us that we
have used as little water as we have, in
view of the amount we are entitled to.
Instead of gratitude, however, we re-
ceive curses, whenever well runs dry
within five miles of the city, or some
hapless irrigator fails to get water when
he wants it. We know our rights under
the law, and the rights of the city, and
are prepared to maintain the one and at
all times respect the other.
Respectfully, j. A. GRAVES,
Agent Thomas Bell, owner of Los Feliz
Rancho.

San Fernando Notes.

DEAR HERALD: l suppose all sorts
of reports as to the crops from our val.
ley have arrived at your office, Or head
quarters for crop reports, which is the
same thing, for the HERALD is the ac-
knowledged weather and crop author

Moffitt We are not going to have a
full crop of grain; but, nevertheless, we
will have lots of feed, seed and fright
smart chance" of grain to sell. A brisk
shower fell to-day that will materially
help the grain. The weather is, and
has been for ton days, all that could be
desired by the farmers.
Senator Maclay has just returned
from your city, where he has been ON a
visit to Judge r. M. Widney, his
nephew. He is buoyant and gladstone,
as is his wont. Without him San Fer
nando is lost. VETO.

Telegraphic Paganism.

EDITOR HERALD: In keeping with the
general sentiment permeating the salu-
brious atmosphere of the semi tropics,
the Western Union Telegraph force of
this city have erected an altar to the
glory of the great esthete in one corner
of the operating room. Thus, as the
Celestial heathen presented his prayers,
burnt offerings of cat-stew, rat-pie, etc.,
to the tinseled joss above his ironing
board, so also do our knights of the key
make daily sacrifice of ink eau Carter,
cigar q Ia stump, smoke, tomales, album
degas, ad iafnitam, to the telegraphic
Brahma embodied in their gaudy temple.
The ground plan of this remarkable
structure is a quaint and somewhat COM
plicated maze OF figures of oriental de-
sign, with elaborate border to "ibe, !"
telegraph technicality, meaning to
agree or to sympathize with, the same
being furnished by Dotter & Bradley for
thirty cents a.roll. In the lower right
hand corner is an idol representing a
crane or stork, the same being the chief
deity or good spirit of the tribe of tele-
graphers, and encyclopedias say orig
mated from the early representatives of
this people worshipping kind of spirit
called "Beer, and that this bird, having
such long and symmetrical neck, could
enjoy for longer time the taste Of q
mug of their favorite beverage made in
those days and called after the deity
who bestowed it upon the race. In the
centre are representations of the great
men of the tribe who by their prowess
came to be in time deifed. The central
figure is that of the great Sachem, or
Commodore, whose benign and we'll
ordered sway has made him the chosen
one, beloved and revered. At his right
hand sits the "Chief," or ebay Chief,
as he is called, who was great poet
and mighty with his pen in his day and
generation. At the left of the 'Com-
modore" is the might Chief or "Guar-
dian of the Evening" He was warrior
in magic and science, being skilled in
mysteries and commonly seen in cloud
of blue smoke. On the right of the
'Night Chief sits the "Arizona Chief"
a subordinate diety, having supervision
of the bugs and cattle in the Arizona di-
vision of the clan. Back and above are
respectively the "Owl," spirit who
only comes out during the small hours
of the night, when graveyards yawn;
next, the great Vishnu, 'Tom," the
spirit of labor, and beside him the repre-.
sentation of the Mercury of the Tele-
graphers, the spirit of wind or zephyrs,
these for central piece. At either up
per corner are the local deities of the
clans of San Francisco and Tucson. On
saints days these idols are beseeched
with offerings of ink, blanks, paper wads
and other confectionery relished by the
spirits, amid great illuminations of
Greek fire from the gas-works, enchala-
das and expiring cigarette stubs. @.

Was it Designs

Harry M. Schiller called at the San
office yesterday and stated as his reasons
for non-attendance at the Los Angeles
examination for cadet to represent the
Fourth Congressional district at the An
napolis Naval Academy, that by invita-
ton he wrote to Hon. G. Wiley Wells,
asking to be considered competitor in
the class, but that the latter did not
send instructions, etc., as promised in
his call for applications, and in no way,
shape or manner acknowledged the re-
ceipt of the letter. Mr.. Schiller then
arrived at the conclusion that through
some fault of the mails the letter had
miscarried. His first knowledge that
snch was net the case occurred when
the item to the effect that his name had
been presented was published in this
paper yesterday. In view of these facts
and in justice to San Diego county,
which deserved representation with as
much show of equity as any other Sec
tion, we deem it the duty of the Hon,
G.. Wiley Wells to rise and explain in
the premises. Diego Sun.

Desmond, the Halter, invites the at

A monkey is blame funny insek.
You can't tell how many feet he has,
cause he amt made up his mind yet
whether his front feet is hands or feets,

smiles his feechers work hard enuff to
pan out somethin ginowine, but the
reel flavor don't seem to be fetched out.
Monkeys hang on tree just like a
grapevine, but there's more meat to 'em.
Monkeys don't dress enough to suit most
folkes, an besides their clothes is made
of such thin stuff that it wares off wen
tina sit down.
