The people who were placid and qui-
escent when the question was as to the
size of the bar'ls of Senators Sharon and
Miller are wonderfully excited when it
comes to a bar1 which is supposed to be
owned by Mr.. George Hearst, promi-
nent Democratic candidate for Governor.
"'Tis wonderful what difference may be
betwixt tweedledum and tweedledee.
They were similarly grievously exercised
at Mr.. Tilden's barl. Barl's, even if
they happen to be replenished by money
drawn from the United States Treasury,
are all very well as long as they are
made to do duty for the Republicans.
The difference between Hearst's barl
and the others is that it was headed up
over honestly earned money; and, as re-
spects any undue attempt to influence
the voter, will be kept headed up. The
fact is that Republican rage is unspeak-
able when the press and strikers of that
party realize that any bar'ls are in exist
ence whose heads they may not have the
delight of knocking in themselves. This
is one of the neatest farces of the age.

Feliz Ranch Water Question.

EDITOR HERALD: My water friend
wanders blindly in the dark again this
morning over the Feliz rancho. The
trouble with him is that he does not
grasp the decisions in favor of the
Baldwins in all their fullness. The
water was not divided between the
ranch and the city according to their
relative irrigable area. By no means
was this the case. If "Regador" will
examine the findings closely, from find
ings XI. to XVII. he will see that the
Court distinctly found that the Bald
wins and their grantors had for years
used and needed in the cultivation of
the rancho the amount of water awarded
us. Now as to our not using our full
allowance; we will say we have forborne
doing SO from pure Christian charity to
the city. We can plant such crops in
the Feliz that the entire eight cubic feet
of water will be necessary to carry us
through the irrigating season. But we
do not want any trouble with any one.
Our motto is "Live and let live." But
we warn "Regador" that if all of this
senseless clamor about our extravagant
use of the water is not hushed we will
stand upon our strict legal rights and
use all the water that the strong arm of
the law has awarded us. Another
thing: "Regador" should understand
that the late decision of the Supreme
Court is not final determination of the
Elms case. A motion for a new trial is
pending therein and shortly all the evil
dence in the cas- e will be before that
august tribunal. When it rendered its
last decision it was on the judgment roll
alone. The Court below found the facts
one way and gave the judgment the
other way. The Supreme Court were
bound by the findings, and it remains to
be seen whether that Court will adhere
to these findings with the evidence be-
fore it. We do not know Mr..
"Regador. We would think more Of
him if he had the manliness to sign his
name to his communications. AT pres
ent we are of the opinion that he is
either one of our many chronic grum-
blers or is under an assumed name, la
boring in the interests of some of the
many attorneys who are seeking to be
employed by the city to fight the Bald
win water title. If at any time we are
convinced that we are wrong in our con
clusion we will render ''Mr. Regador" a
handsome apology. Respectfully,
j. A. GRAVES.

The connection had been broken, and

her ear to the "phone" when the man
said, "Have you got any liver?" The
girl was nearly frightened to death, but

Poker as a Disease.
IN. Y. Graphic.l

Draw poker is most fascinating vet
deceiving game. One of the peculiar
tiles of the game is that the beginner. as
soon as he finds out that one certain
kind of hand beats another, and that a
bluff, if successful, beats any hand,
thinks he can play the game better thau
any man. If he holds poor one and
bets big on it and scares out an old vet
eran, when he rakes in the money he
cocks his hat on one side and thinks how
rich he might have been if he had learn
ed to play poker before. He wonders
why everybody does not give up business
and play poker and get rich. As he
counts over the chips he has won so
easily by . simple display of nerve, he
says to himself: "This game is good
for yours truly. Henceforth hard work
and me will dissolve partnership. He
keeps on playing. When he wins
his hat is cooked on one side,
and when he loses he wears
it straight. At first it is on one side
most of the time, then he gets to wear
ing it straight pretty frequently until
he finally loses every dollar he has got
aad goes out and clubs himself. Coun-
trymen who think they play d pretty
good game of poker find themselves in
large cities and they are not contented
till they get into a game, and nine times
out of ten they get~ so everlastingly
scooped that they can't tell their own
names till they look at it pasted on the
inside of their hats. However good
man plays, there is always some one
that plays better. There is no game
better calculated to take the conceit out
of man than poker. We have had it
taken out of US seventy.five dollars
worth by cuss that didn't seem to
know half as much as we did.
A man has to have the the conceit
taken out of him about eleven times be-
fore it will stay out, but after he has
once got it eradicated from the system
he never catches it again. He can live
right amongst it, where all around him
are down with it, and he will not take it
not if he knows himself. If you have
an idea you are good poker player,
there is no hope for you till you get the
eonceit taken out of you, and the sooner
you get it out the better. Some can
get it out by losing 500, others have to
lose farm or house and lot. In some
cases it takes years to get it out, and in
others it can be got out in one evening.
Do not delay in having it taken out, as
long as your system is in condition to
retain the seeds of the disease, but hunt
for games you can get into, till you lose
enough, then call yourself monumen-
tai, colossal, enigmatical ass and jump
the game. You will never think as
much of yourself after it is over as you
did before, but you will be worth more
to society.

IT is pleasant to note that even the
workingmen of Canada rebeing aroused
to the dangers of Chinese immigration.
At Hamilton, the other day, there was
q meeting of protest. While we were
careful to say nothing which might i'm
peril the passage Of the mutilated Chi
nese bill, bill which would have been
worse than mockery except for the
amendments of Senators Farley and
Grover, we nevertheless have profound
distrust of the efficacy of that measure,
especially if it shall be administered by
Republican executives. Secretary of the
Treasury Folger is at present busy max
ing up lot of certificates which will
yet prove to be the Trojan horse that
viii defeat the aspirations of our people.
The certificates Of previous residence in
the United States will be found, under
Republican administration, to multiply
at wonderful rate. In addition, China
men will be smuggled into the country
wholesale from the British possessions
and Mexico. 1t is for this reason that
we desire to see the sentiment of hostil-
ity to Chinese immigration spread until
it shall embrace the whole people of the
continent, irrespective of lines of nation
ality. Without brutality or infringe
ment of the law, an atmosphere or pub
lie sentiment should be fostered in the
United States and on other portions of
the American continent which will repel
the Mongolian. The American of to-day
Daily Los Angeles herald., 1882-05-28

who ventures outside of the treaty ports
of China is rash man, and the proba-
bility of his getting back safely is dim
indeed. While we should not initiate
the Chinese in that regard, the China
man who lands here should be made to
feel that life will be pleasanter and more
profitable at home. Canada seems to be
en- rapport with our people ON this prop
osition and we are heartily glad of it.
The ball should be kept rolling. The
real solution of the evil will be reached
when Democratic President shall send
his first message to Democratic Con-
gress.

To an extent never hitherto known in
the history of California the San Jose
Convention will be representative body.
1t is safe to say that more of the dele
gates will be elected directly by the peo-
pie, and that more votes will be polled
at the primaries at which they have been
or will be elected, than at any time since
California became body polite. In
this respect the Democratic State Con-
vention will probably present a striking
contrast to the Republican body which
will meet later in the year; and in
which, in all likelihood, the delegates
will be appointed by the County Com
mittees. 1t is pleasant to note how rap
idly the practice of appointing delegates
by County Committees is giving place to
the direct choice of the people.
