The New Bouleyard.


The new boulevard recommended by
the HERALD has been fairly inaugurated,
in moderate manner, by the City Coun-
ell The official channel of the river is
established at 300 feet in width, and the
Council, with the limited appropriation
at their command, have commenced the
work of excavation in the channel of the
Los Angeles river from the upper rail.
road bridge southwark along the chan
mel, center channel fifteen feet wide
and three feet deep to Seventh street.
This improvement will absorb all that
the Council will be allowed to appropri-
ate, and now is the time for the land
owners in that part OF the city to con-
tinue and add to the work which the city
is doing. The city is putting the sand
which it is removing in bank on the
west side of the river, just where it is
wanted by the majority of the citizens.
On this bank, which will do for be-
ginning, the citizens can put what they
excavate from the rest of the river.bed,
and then rip-rap it with boulders and
cover it with stiff earth, composed of
clay and gravel, which can be obtained
in any quantity on both sides of the
river. In this way drive can be made
at least six feet above the present bank
Of the river, at small expense. The City
Surveyor, Capt. Knox, has staked out
the bed of the river, and marked it with
proper bounds. Whenever our citizens
are ready to go to work to complete
what has been begun to establish levee
and boulevard in one and the same
construction, the City Superintendent of
Streets will give them all necessary in
structions how to do the work.
This work is easy. There is no sur
vey required. All is plain and simple
moving of earth into one great broad
winrow. and then cover it with gravel
to the depth of foot at least. There is
large amount of earth being hauled
from excavations for cellars. foundations
for buildings and grading of streets.
This earth can easily be put there to get
it out of the way, while the boulders to
guard the banks are in abundant supply.
Such grand and convenient highway
would add beautiful drive to the city,
removed from contact with railway
tracks and cars, and add largely to the
value of all property between San Pedro
street and the river as far south as the
the city line. The best time to do this
work, is while the teams and men who
have been engaged in repairing and
threshing are unoccupied. Such q
boulevard would be one of the most de-
sirable permanent improvements of the
city and add to the value of land own
ers five times what the road would cost
them. 1t would be work for centuries
and we can well afford to make it, and
make it now. A committee OF land
owners in the district should go to work
tomorrow and push this work forward
as rapidly as possible, and future genera
tions will rise up and call them blessed.

Democrats of His Dfstrict-The work
OF His Republican Helpers.

WASHINGTON, February 12.-Reed and
his Republican associates on the House
Judiciary Committee are doing their beat TO
stihe inquiry into the reasons for Gen.
ChGlmers's appointment as assistant district
attorney for the Northern District of Mis-
sissippi. Chalmers was assigned under hrs
commission to the investigation and prosecu-
ton OF alleged election frauds. The APP
poiutnIons e4eitoJ ruepiCiou from the hrs',
because it was known that Chalmers spent a
week here in November, solely for this pur-
pose, and that a commission meant the sup
port OF the administrat alton in whatever de-
signs Chalmers might have against his pc.
litical opponents in the November election.
1t was clear enough that Chalmers wanted
10 put the voters of the district in position
10 which they might feel that opposition 10
him was a risky business to whomsoever
might have political hopes, and bis return
home with authority from the administration

allegiance of half-hearted voters and patron

Chalmers had been appointed expressly 10

Gently been a candidate, thus disclosing the
anmus of the administration, Mr.. Manning
offered in the House early in the session d
resolution of inquiry. Il went to the Ju-
dietary Committee, and, although at several
meetings Mr.. Manning tried to call it up for
action, the Republicans have regularly put
him off under plea of more important busi-
ness than the exposure OF piece Of politi-
cal chicsnery. Meanwhile Chalmers has
been annoying his opponents. and upon
fimsy pretext seeking to dishonor the Demo
cratic leaders in his district by prosecution.
These operations have been nothing more
than annoyances, for not only has he failed
to secure a conviction, but it is claimed that
he has not collected sufficient evidence TO
warrant single indictment. 1t has APP
peared, moreover, Mr.. Manning says, that
Mr.. Chalmers's official action has been
guided entirely by malicious motives. Mr..
Manning intends to press the matter upon

Oh, no, this is not the way protection works.
The strong infant clings to the taxes he has

Resolved, That, with our facilities in man

Europe for the trade OF the world and vastly
increase our production, if not crippled by
unwise and impartial legislation, and a
discrimination in favor of the foreign manu-
fsctursr, or of the few special and limited

An Alabama Tragedy,

HUNTSVILLE, February 12.-At Hazel
Green, small village In the northern por.
ton of this county, about sixteen miles from
Huntsville, Fisher OldGeld shot and perhaps
fatally wounded Daniel Moseley, a WELL
known citizen and prominent planter of thal
section. For a considerable period Moseley
and Od6eld have been at 'outs," and on
more than one occasion have disturbed the
quietude OF the neighborhood by their rows.
Yesterday they met. Both were evidently
prepared for business. After brisk war o!
words, Moseley is said to have opened the
ball By firing the contents of d. uble-bar.
relied shotgun loaded with buckshot at Old
field, who was just acrossthe road. Neither
of the shots took effect. Oldfeld responded
BY firing a load from his gun at Moseley
Five of the shot took effect in Moseley'c
breast and he is supposed to be dangerously
wounded. Oldield and Moseley are both
men Of respectability. The Eeud between
them is of long standing. Public opinion al
Hazel Green is said to be favorable to Old.
field, who only acted in self defense. Later
accounts say Mr.. Moseley has died, but the
report lacks confirmation,
