FoR years past the HERALD has been
urging upon the Board of Supervisors
the necessity and good sense of making
some good roads in Los Angeles county.
II is one OF the shames OF the day that
we have not in this city or county a
single passable drive. We have almost
been forced to the conclusion that we
noed never look for any help in an
official direction. Why should not some
Of our more enterpising fellow.citizens
start the project of toll road! There
would, we doubt not, be decent return
upon the Investment in well macad'
amized roads, for instance, which should
lead from Los Angeles to Santa Monica
and from Los Angeles to San Gabriel.
As matter of fact, we know Of two
gentlemen in this city who will make a
downright donation of $500 a piece to
such road, and we doubt not but that
the temper of the community al large
would be found very liberal towards such
scheme, ii 1t were only tested. 1t is
high time that we should bestir our
selves in this matter. 1t can hardly be
that we have stolidly settled down to
the determination that Angelenos,
old and young, shall never, during the
period OF their natrral lives, know the
delights of lively spin on a good, hard,
well-kept thoroughfare. Los Angeles
has grown at such rate lately that she
will be compelled to shake off village
habitudes which did well enough, per.
haps, some ten years ago, but which are
now totally unsuited to her population
and to the demands of the hour.

From very frequent paragraphs we
have encountered even in Republican
papers II would seem that the scandals
in the Treasury of the United States are
not only numerous but grave. The pas
sage Of billet.doux, even in the press of
business hours, between Secretary Fol-
ger and some of bis lady clerks is the
subject u daily remark, and the airs put
on by these favored ones over their
homely and more virtuous sisters are
said TO be sight TO see. Secretary Fol-
gor, 1t is asserted, verifes the adage
that there is no fool like the old fool.
1t would be of immense service to the
public If the departments in Washington
were thoroughly renovated and run for
a while by new set of officials. There
would then be found to be more things
than are dreamt of in the philosophy of
the unsuspecting rustic voter.

THE thirst after fame assumes all sorts
Of shapes. II appears that the
members Of the San Francisco
School Directory have lately been seized
with an Unsuitable desire to immortalize
themselves, an ambition which has
taken on the concrete form Of dropping
such names as jackson, Lincoln, etc., as
applied TO school houses, and plastering
the name Of school director on them
instead. Thus, the Jackson School,
which was named after glorious Old
Hickory, by recent decree Of the
Board, has been changed to tho Hast
ings School. A witty Golden Gate
journal suggests that the Lincoln School
should heneeforth be known as the
Cahalin School, thus concentrating a
neat little piece of bribery which was
brought to light in the Board the other
day. A visit from the Fool-Killer
would be blessing to San Francisco
Just now.

PERHAPS the coolest joke of the age
i the way England is shipping paupers
and criminals to this country by the
process known as ''assisted" emigra-
ton. When some unfeeling landlord
has "rackrented" destitute family into
the highway, the poor wretches, often
old and decrepid, are approached by
agents of Dublin Castle, are given a
steerage passage to the United States,
and John Bull, through the expenditure
OF few pounds, finds himself forever
shut of the victims of his oppressive
laws. II is understood that these help
less people are landed in Boston and
New York with the munificent sum of
S2.40 in their pockets with which to
fight the battle OF LIE in strange land.
There is something so very neat in this
operation that, unless our government
puts peremptory stop to it, all the
parish authorities of England and Ireland
will be apt to initiate this noble example
OF the British Cabinet, thus guarantee.
ing to the Ind of .he free and home of
the brave hts, class ready made pau.
per population. We have not heard,
lately, how President Arthur's health
is, but it is to be hoped that
he will take enough soda water and
brandy to clear his head sufficiently to
understand that the people of the Unit.
ed States will not tolerate a continuance
OF this imposition, The whole thing is
aggravated by the statement, apparently
on reliable authority, that British con-
victs are being "assisted" to this eoun.
try in a similar manner. The right way
to meet the exigency is to pack these
poor people home again, rendering to
Great Britain a bill for the outlay to
which we have been put in thor extra
dition.

THE approaching session of the Board
OF Supervisors sas.kes it proper that we

responsible parties are prepared to make

House and of s4s, 900 for the County S

Ia addition, the sum of $50, 1000 or

work with. II Sl25,000 Or slSO, 900
