OUR attention has been called,
hy Mr.. Henry Martz, to the re-.
narkable waete of the water re-
sources Of the Pueblo of Los Ange.
les. Based upon data largely sup-
piled by him, we shall tomorrow.
and in succeeding issues of the
HEkALD, present some views
which ought to have force with
our people, whether the seasons
shall prove to be dry or wet. AS q
matter Of fact, there is ample
water In the Los Angeles river, II
piped and sconomized, to irrigate
fifty thousand acres Of land, a cir
cunstanee which, II rightly un-
derstood, would impart a value OF
one Thousand dollars an acre to
this land, and bring up the agri-
cultural total of the thirty six
thousand acres OF the Pueblo and
the immediate surrounding coun-
try to . capitalized value Of at
least hfty millions Of dollars. We
propose to agitate this matter,
and to keep on agitating it, until
oar people shall show q realizing
sense Of the natural wealth that
lies at their doors, In the shape Of
an abundant water supply, which
they can utilize at comparatively
trlfing outlay.

Wheu little George owned up to
hacking that cherry tree, his
father exclaimed, "I am glad to
hear you tell the truth, my son;
but I had thought of making q
lawyer Of you. 1t will never do, 1
see; 80 yeu will have to go into the
army. You will become a fret
GLASS liar after you leave it and be-
gin telling of your exploits. Then
we will put you into law office"
So you see the life of the Father
OF his Country might have been
altogether different had he not
owned up to his arbericultural
achievement.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1st.-Ex.
Senator Ssrgents nomination as
Secretary Of the Interior was not
sent In to-day, as originally intend
ed, for the reason, mainly, that the
Sobrante case has not reached the
point Of final action in the Interior
Department, and Sargent, Of
course, is not willing to have it
left over for his decision, as he has
been and still is an attorney in the
case in behalf of the settlers. The
unexpectedly long delay in the de-
cision by Secretary Kirkwood has
been caused by the voluminous
character OF the papers and the
pressure Of the current daily busi-
ness of the Department., which does
not admit Of postponement, but
the case is now before the Secre.
tary and he promises to Announce
q decision within the next few
days.
