LETTERS FROM TINE PEOPLE.
a Protest Against a Recent Editorial
Article in the Herald"

To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD: The
City Council propose to license gamb.
ling for the sake Of the revenue the
gamblers are willing to pay into the City
Treasury for the privilege of leading
young men astray, and robbing all citi-
zens they can inveigle into their dens Of
vice. You, sir, am told, have lived in
81. Louis, where gambling was formerly
permitted by law l also lived there.
You must have seen what have seen
thousands of times--the low crowds of
roughs swarming into and out OF the
gambling dens in open day. You could
not fail to notice the haggard look upon
the faces of these poor wretches. You
must have seen how years OF vice had
transformed the handsome boy into a
criminal OF the lowest class Nowhere
have ever seen SO low type of human
ity, nor SO degraded a crowd as those
who emerge from lottery den in an
afternoon after the drawing is over.
But you have never seen what only
women can see--the worst results of this
terrible vice. Visit, as have done, the
wives of the poor, deluded victims of
the gambler. The father has spent his
weeks earnings at the gambling table,
and the mothers scanty earnings are not
enough TO give each child a crust
of bread Starvation begets illness,
and death carries off the Youngest and
feeblest Of the family. The poor broken
hearted mother knows that death is to be
preferred to the life she is bound to lead,
and often wishes that she and all her
remaining children could join the dear
ones she has lost, One day her eldest
boy is arrested for robbing till that he
might get money with which to gamble.
The poor mother is Frustrated by the
blow, and in a few days she dies Of a
broken heart-a gamblers victim-leav-
ing her babes to the tender mercies OF a
besotted father. This is no fancy sketch.
Ten years ago one-third Of the houses in
the poor quarter of st. Louis could each
furnish an almost parallel case. Few
young men can resist the fascination for
gambling when once INDUCED in. In
all properly governed cities and well
regulated communities gambling is
treated as crime, and looked upon as
vice that degrades whoever indulges in
it; and this keeps all respectable young
men from disgracing themselves. But
once legalize this crime and it assumes
different aspect. Your city may get a
revenue from the gamblers, but it will
certainly be the loser in the end by the
increased cost of caring for and punish
ing the criminals the gambling houses
will create. Is this revenue large enough
to compensate your citizens for the loss
OF your good name, fame and reputa-
tions Can you afford to make this step
backward, and thus show the world that
the gambler rules in Los Aanges?

The reason for the decreased size Of
the buildings being commenced in the
city at present, was recently stated by
the HERALD to be caused by the con-
slant work Of contractors, to complete
large contracts now on hand. We are
informed that at least two of our con-
tractors have secured the contract for
erecting two large buildings in the busi-
ness part of the city, the money to be
furnished by San Francisco capitalists.
The buildings now commenced regard
less Of the structures in course of erec-
tion, are yet of consequence. when it is
considered that one of these edifices
is Of a greater value than $1,000. They
are fourteen in number. and their con-
tract price is about s66, 600, or trifie
over "a, 900 each. The more important
edifices are on Los Angeles, Alameda,
Commercial, Spring and Upper Main
streets, while those of minor value grace
five other streets, or ten in all. 1t will
be but few months. during the fall
and winter, when the rush will subside
a little, to commence again with re-
doubled vigor in the spring. All of the
brickmakers are preparing to burn large
kilns of brick for the spring trade,
which is sure index of what it will be.

A Poor King.

A few days ago report was received
here that Al. King, who used to run
variety show in Los Angeles, had drawn
a large sum in lottery and was on the
highway of happiness and good credit.
AL. was in Tombstone at the time and
at once came into great popularity. But
the following dispatch from Tombstone
to the Citizen at Tucson changes the
whole scene. 1t states that Gal. King,
manager of the Palace Variety Theatre,
skipped out this morning about 8
o'clock. He is said to have been driven
to Dragon Summit, where he took the
east-bound train. His wife and one of
the Campbell Sisters accompanied
him. The other one is still here.
The reason, assigned for the fight is the
importantly OF creditors. A few hours
before leaving he borrowed quite an
amount of wine from different saloons
here, which was used by party in the
theater. Members of his company, to
whom he owes their salary, are furious. /"
Daily Los Angeles herald., 1883-09-21
A Mineral Curiosity.

AT the HERALD office is q curious spe-
cimen Of ore that excites peculiar atten'
tion. 1t is a rock strongly impregnated
with petroleum, iron and gold. This
mine is in Los Angeles county. about
eighty miles north of Los Angeles city,
and is q most remarkable combination.
The sample shows rich iron ore with
free gold and strong smell OF petro-
leum. How the rock is to be reduced,
we are not prepared to state. II is a
question whether the ore, il put in an
ordinary furnace, with the presence of
petroleum in the rock would not destroy
the iron before reducing the ore. It
may be that moderate roasting of the
ore would expel the petroleum before
placing the ore in the furnace. The
combination is SO peculiar and unusual
that the ordinary process will probably
not apply. and some new method Of
treatment will have to be devised.
From the character Of the country,
and the vast deposit of petroleum that
exists beneath the mineral rocks to the
north of this city, 1t is evident that q
large amount Of the mineral bearing
rock is impregnated with oil, and exper-
iments should be made to ascertain how
this reduction should be carried on.
In the north part of the county is
vast amount OF this kind Of ore, rich in
gold and it may be impregnated with
petroleum. Now will some of our as.
sayists, millers and smelters inform the
public through the HERALD all about
the reduction Of such kind Of ore. There
is here fine field for discovery
and profit. If the presence of petro-
leum in the rock adds to the
facility of reduction, and reduces the
cost Of the same, then it is time to know
that fact There is no doubt Of the fact
that there is an immense amount of gold
bearing rock in Los Angeles county, and
that it is in the oil bearing section is
well known. 1t is now to be determined
whether nature has put the fuel in the
rock to aid in the reduction or whether
it is destructive of the metals with which
it exists. Some great discovery is immi
meet in this connection.
Daily Los Angeles herald., 1883-09-21
Homemade Syrup

The production of all the syrup used
in Los Angeles should be accomplished
in Los Angeles county. This eau easily
be done by planting sorghum on some Of
the fine corn lands at Westminster, Ger
ritos, Ell Monte, Cienega and Ballona.
All these localities are specially adapted
to the growth Of sorghum. which yields
enormous crops in all of them. Indian
corn yields from so to 100 bushels per
acre and yields return Of about $50
per acre.
Sorghum will readily produce a yield
of seed nearly equal to that of Indian
corn besides yield of 1000 pounds of
sugar to the acre worth 500, besides
syrup and seed worth at least $50 more,
or Sl40 per acre. In some instances
return of $500 per acre has been made
from the seed and syrup Of sorghum.
These figures are given from actual
experiments in this county and in the
States Of Indiana and Illinois. The pro-
cess of syrup and sugar making from
sorghum ] very short, simple and mex
pensive. 1t is matter OF regret that
our farmers do not give more attention
to the production of sorghum sugar. 1t
is invariably more profitable than corn,
wheat, barley or oats. The seed makes
good food for hens and hogs, while the
syrup pays debts and makes a good
bank account. The farmers of Los An
geles on their semi-moist land can do NO
better than to raise sorghum and make
syrup.

freed by a Grizzly.

On Monday last, our well and favora-
bly, known friend, Mr.. G.. Washington
Buffer, while angling for speckled beau
ties in San Antonio Canon, was fright
ened beyond recognition by his most
intimate friends, by the sudden appear
ance of monster grizzly bear, which
made straight at him, and showed every
evidence Of longing for Canibal
feast. Bruin did not manifest the slight
est inclination to spare our friend, even
after George had tried to bluff her,
[Blufferl. by various gesticulations and
yells, calculated to rob her bearship Of
her fondness for gentlemen out Of town.
All attempts to frighten the brute away
proved vain, and every moment brought
her nearer, and showed the long, white
fangs and murderous claws, that would
speedily convert Washington into fish
bait, assorted sizes, unless he found
some means Of immediate escape. which
fortunately stood near him in the form
of tree, up which he climbed in less
time than it would require to see that he
was the worst scared man in Cal. He
realized that unless he succeeded in kill
ing or binding the bear with his six
shooter, the small tree that supported
him, would soon be torn from the
ground. After shooting five times with
out effect, he steadied his nerves with a
few whiffs from Tansill's Punch &c
cigar, with which he was plentifully
supplied by Ball, at the P. o. Cigar Store,
and killed his prosecutor with his last
cartridge. jy3l-tf.
