THE DAKOTA ELECTION.
The State Constitution Indorsed-The False
Cry of Railway Monopoly Disregarded.

The State Constitution Indorsed-The False
Cry of Railway Monopoly Disregarded.
Special to the Chicago Inter Ocean.
Clark, d. T. Nov. 9-Oficial returns
have not yet been made Of the vote on
the constitution in south Dakota, but it
is enough to know that the bitter fight
waged BY the few parties who vouch.
safed to take the stump against it, and
whose motives have been brought into
serious question by the leading newspa-
pers Of Dakota, has failed to defeat the
measure. even on very light vote.
Every effort was made to array the farm.
ers against the constitution on the
ground that it favored the railroads, and
it was owing chiefly to this arrant
demagogy that any considerable vote
against it vas secured ut all. Early in
the canvas the oppsition of the prohibi.
tionists WAS virtually withdrawn, and
probably less than thousand votes we're
| polled sgainst the constitution on this
ground. The cry of railroad constitu.
ton" was raised as last resort, and
raised by men who could read and see
for themselves the similarity in this re-
spect of the Illinois and proposed Da.
kota constitutions. In few counties
the democrats made something of = party

An AGadsvit Which VIII not be Rellshed

Sioux Falls Press.
Ordway denies the assertion made by
Washington paper that he had been con-
nscted with man named Blumenburg
in purchasing District of Columbia
bonds issued to contractors, which by
subsequent legislation were made equal
to government bonds" The Press

Washington paper, and 30 long rs it can
do 30 quite readily it feels like Offering
evidence as to the validity of the asser.
tions therein contained, Ordway's denial
to the contrary notwithstanding,
which it does BY the publication
Of an extract from an afi-
dsvit of VIM. P. Wood, who was fully
posted regarding the transaction. An
explanation of the case would occupy
more space than it deserve, as our pur.
pose at this time is to show Ordway up
as q falsifier rather than as swindler.

transactions:
"Wm. P. Wood, being duly sworn,

and dollars each; that the said bonds are
now in the hands of N. G. Ordway, and
we're passed to him by w. B. Moses. who
obtained them from said Blumenberg,
and that at the time they were received
from him and passed to the said Ordway
by the said Moses, both the said Moses
and the said Ordwsy knew and were
fully informed of the existence of tn,
papers Aforesaid, and of the understand
ing and arrangement between sale

were privy to the arrangement BY
which the bonds were obtained from
Cullinsne, tho money used being
advanced BY said N. G. Ordwal
through ". B. Moses to Rudolph Blum

The Eagle Minstrels.

The audience which attended the en-.
tertainment Of the Eagle Dramatic and
Minstrel Society at Turnveren Hall,
last evening, was not nearly commensu-
rate with the excellence Of the perform.
ance. The minstrel first part was re-
markably good, the scene being well
grouped, and the costumes Of the old
plantation style. The singing was ex-
cellent, while too much praise cannot be
given to the exquisite Instrumentation
of the orchestra. The finale was origi.
nal and funny, while nearly all the jokes
were new. Mr.. J. NJ. French gave a
very excellent German dialect character
sketch, and was twice encored. A farcical
sketch entitled Truthful James," fol-
lowed by AL. Adams and George A..
Atwood as actors. B. C. Holmes, A.
Adams and George A. Atwood then
sang character songs. and were com.
PEELED to again respond to the demands
of the audience, which was very en-
thusiatic. The side-splitting farce en-
titled "a Quiet Family" closed the
performance, and was listened to with
great attention. The performers all did
exceedingly well. To Mr.. George A.
Atwood. the moving spirit in arranging
this excellent entertainment, much Of
the credit for its success is due. To-
night will close the season Of two
nights.

Notable Births and Purchases and
Classic and Historic Names.

Five years ago Mr.. +. NJ. Slaughter,
OF the Rincon, called on Mr.. L. w.
Noyes. the popular auctioneer, and asked
him to name a lilly by Echo out Of Belle
Mason. Noyes, who had the sale of
books, reached to his shelf for copy Of
Moore and read to Mr.. Slaughter from
Moore's Paradise and the Peri. Mr..
Slaughter said, 'That settles it; my
filly's name is Peri" The mare Peri was
afterwards purchased from Mr.. s. by C.
A. Durfee and bred to Mr.. L. j. Roses
Sultan, out Of Sultana by the Moor.
Yesterday, May lst, she dropped colt
by Sultan, and Mr.. Durfee asked Mr..
Noyes. who had named Peri, to give his
colt name, and insisted that that name
should be from Lalla Rookh, adding that
it should be apropos. Instantaneously
Noyes exclaimed, "Call him Cashmere. u
Our friend Noyes was also called upon,
during the past week, to give title to
a yearling Richmond belonging to MIR.
George A. vignolo. With his custom
ary felicity, he required to the last scene

A Capricious Pistol.

A party Of young people that had
been spending Sunday last at Santa
Monica, on their way home to Los An
geles at night. stopped at the house Of
Jerala Boiorqui for bailo. During the
night young man named Francisco
Slert, who lives in SonoratowD, con.
ceived the idea that he would have q
little pistol practice, using cat for a
target. The cat was under the house,
aid Francisco had bad luck in hitting
the feline creature, and indulged
in some profane remarks about the quail.
ity Of the gun, denounciug it in ungram-
matical Castilian as fraud and good.
for-nothing piece Of firearms.
His friend, Felipe Manriquez, sympa-
thized with the despised pistol and
offered to show Francisco that it would
shoot ii properly handled, proposition
that was cheerfully accepted by the
owner. He handed the gun to Felipe,
who showed promptly that it had good
shooting qualities by sending bullet
through the legs Of Francisco, who now
has firm belief that that particular gun
when in the hands of friend will do
good execution on man even If fails on
cat. There Ia no accounting for the
caprice of a pistol at bale, and the
safest way is to leave the little things at
home. Mr.. Blacklaw, Of Centinela,
brought the wounded man to town for
surgical aid. He is sadder and mad
der man than formerly, and thinks that
his remarks previously were too previous
for the poor pistol. Ii there is any
moral in this e-pistol the discoverer is
welcome to it.

Why is it wastedp


No one probably ever heard Of fresh
orange peel being utilized for any pur-
pose in California, where it Is SO abun.
dant. Yet. in other orange growing
countries, it is an important article Of
commerce. Havre, France, is the prin-
cipal place of shipment, whence about
two hundred sacks are shipped monthly,
and are valued at twenty-five francs
each, representing sl2. 900 year from q
single port. Many shipments are also
made from Southern France, via Mar
seilles. The peel at wholesale, will
average eight cents per pound in price.
In Spain. Italy and the West Indies,
the trade is also very large in this arti-
Gle, tho sweet variety being transmitted
iuto marmalade, and the bitter kind
equally valuable-into bitters. The
juice OF either kind is used in the max.
ing Of acids. To show the vast imper.
tance Of this industry. statistics show
that over 200, 900 pounds were imported
through the port of New York last year
from Europe. valued at nearly $4,000.
At present there is no duty on the
article. but it is probable that our local
supply could easily compete with the
foreign peel. Flcrida orange growers
are waking up in the matter, and com.
mencing to place this product in the
principal markets. Why should not
Los Angeles and other Southern Cali
fornia counties follow suit and utilize an
article at present wasted! 1t would be
an excellent way to utilize punctured
wind falls, which will not keep; all that
is necessary being to dry and pack the
skins. Probably it might not pay to
ship them East in competition with
France, but if the industry were started,
undoubtedly San Francisco chemists
and druggists would furnish
market, or, better than that, ono could
be established in Los Angeles, and keep
the money at home. 1t is a question Of
economy and profit from what is not
now utilized. What public spirited
orange grower will lead out in this i'm
portant industry, and become more
wealthy than he Is at present.
When the fact Of the value of orange
peel becomes known it will be such an
OBJECT to save he article, that the peo.
pie will be spared the danger and annoy.
auce of slipping on the sidewalks or
stairways. where this product is hourly
stresn by careless and thoughtless per-
sons. The custom is infamous aud
should be stopped. There is probably
not single public stairway in the city
but is strewn with this golden rind,
golden in double sense, and the lives
Of the people endangered thereby.
There seems to be no way Of stopping
this pernicious practice, except by max.
ing market for peel that ia now thrown
away.
Daily Los Angeles herald., 1883-05-02

1t is said, was caused by the stories told
by the boy, and it was in revenge for the
tale-bearing that the unnatural sister
inflicted the cruel punishment noted
above.
1t may not be known that the venera-
ble Albert Pike, who is visiting Los An
geles, was one OF the first and foremost
advocates Of the overland railway. The
writer saw him in 1854, when Tom Ben.
ton, Peter Cooper, William Cullen
Bryant, Washington Irving and VIM. e.
Dodge were pioneers in advocating a
railroad. Albert Pike favored south.
ern route from Norfolk to Guaymas,
aud it would have been built twenty
years ago, II the slavery quarrel had not
divided and diverted the people. We
are glad the old man has lived to see his
hopes realized.
Mr.. s. w. Luitweiler, in a double col
umn advertisement elsewhere in this
mornings HERALD, announces that he
has just received five carloads of the
celebrated Studebaker farm wagons and
header trucks. These wagons, as every.
body who has occasion to use wagon
knows, for durability, light running and
every other desirable quality, cannot be
surpassed. He also keeps at his ware
rooms on Los Angeles street, a large as
sortment Of carriages, hnggies and spring
wagons built expressly for this climate,
all Of which he sells at very reasonable
prices. His establishment will well re-
pay visit.
In its account Of the late meeting Of
the state horticultural Society the s. F.
Eramiaer says
The principal paper Of the day was by
w. B. West of Stockton on English
Walnuts in California" He said that
the walnut crop Of this State for 1882
was $4,000 pounds, Of which 400, 900
pounds were sent to the East, where the
nuts met with great favor. Los Angeles
gave 400.00 pounds, San Bernardino
100, 900 pounds, Santa Barbara and Ven
tura 100000 pounds. The best nuts
came from Los Nietos, in Los Angeles,
Santa Barbara and Ventura. But few
nuts were grown in the northern coun-
ties. The walnut tree made q good
wind break for orange groves.

THE TtRTlo-MlLlENNlAl.
The Most Unique Event in History
Where and When 1t VIII be-of
What 1t VIII Consist.

The HERALD acknowledges the honor
of an invitation to the Tertio- Millennial
celebration of the founding Of Santa Fe,
City Of Holy Faith" in 1850. This
journal was the first ON the Pacific Coast
to call attention to this great celebration
and to urge the people of Los Angeles
to attend. In clden times the people Of
Santa Fe used to come to Los Angeles
to purchase horses and mules on account
of their great superiority over the little
animals which they possessed. They
have been our friends and distant neigh
bors for three generations.
The Roman Catholic fathers settled
both cities, and there is bond Of re-
lationship between them that has out
lasted century. To those who think
Los Angeles is an ancient place because
it is two years older than the Indepen-
dence OF the United States and six years
older than the Constitution thereof, they
can modify their views by contrasting
it with venerable Santa Fe. which
was established in the days Of
Copernicus, when Charles the v.
was King Of Spain and the
Netherlands, and Emperor OF Austria
and Germany, being Monarch (I.) and
w. at the same time, and controlling
half the population of Europe. Ed
ward the VI was King of England,
and Queen Mary was plotting for the
succession. Columbus had been dead
but forty-four years, and the earth
had been only twenty-eight years before
circumnavigated by Magellan, and only
forty-seven generations had passed since
the birth of Christ, when His faith was
planted at Santa Fe. Los Angeles
should be well represented at this great
national event which will continue
thirty-three days, from July I'd to
August Sd. 1883, all going by threes.
III &C oayc VIA po gwen W hoPi csch'a-
tives Of three centuries. One day each
to the 10Th. 18th and 18th centuries,
each DAY will have procession in the
costume which it wore. There will be
midnight assault on Fort Marcy, horse
races. foot races, Indian battles, tourna-
ments, orations, Mexican theater, Aztec
races, burro races, hurdle races, Indian
dances, chorals in the cathedral, bailes
in costume, military band concerts, and
a view Of the Oldest church in America.
The Knights Templar and the g. A. X.
will be there, and the event will be the
most unique in the history of civilza-
tion. The HERALD has heretofore men-
toned this entertainment at length, and
will give the readers of this Journal a
full description of the grand and MEM
orable celebration.
