Doylestown Democrat.

The state needs good militia system,
whose efficiency should be strengthened,
instead of weakened. The militia are tho
safeguard of tho country and an organized
body in each state cannOt be dispensed
with. Ours has little too much " fuss
and feathers about it, and there is a
notable disregard of elementary instruc.
ti0n. If the Legislature wish to increase
the efficiency of citizen soldiery, it should
pass a law compelling the officers to give
more attention to drills in the school OF
the soldier. Without this, it is as impos-
sible to make soldiers as it is to teach
children to read without their knowing
the alphabet. Our militia system is ex
pensi7e where it should not be. The
amount asked for the expenses of the
arscnals 1--WE speak from memory, not
having the figures before us) is about
445, 600, which we think too much. The
annual expenses of the adjutant generals
Office is $1S 600. of which clerk hire
amounts to s12, 600, in face of the fact that
the law allows but three clerks. These
are exceedingly we'll paid officials. The
annual encampments are not what they
should be. Instead of schools of instruc.
tiOn, where officers and men are brought
down to hard work, they are made too
much the occasion of parade and display.
The state should lease ground for these
and have it properly fitted
mp, and there each brigade should en-
camp in turn. II we are to maintain
militia system, let US have a good ono and

A Mining Story.
San Francisco Bulletin.

Not many miles from Shasta City is
the gulch OF which the following story
was told 1t is pretty deep ravine, with
rocks showing all the way mp the sides.
Gold in paying quantities had been found
along the stream, but it seemed to again
disappear few feet from the channel.
One day, while gang of busy men
were toiling in the stream, stranger,
evidently green at e mining, came
along and leaned with ragged ell
bows to watch with protruding
eyes the results OF their toll. The
miner nearest him took out n s. nugget,
and anxiety overcame the greenhorn
Say" he asked, "where can ! 90 to
diggin' to find it like that" The hardy
miner stopped his work, and giving the
wink to all the boys, so that the Joke
should not be lost, pointed up to the
barren rock whore no gold had ever been
found. 'Nou see that rough-looking
place." "Ies, yes, said the new hand
"Well, thar it is rich, Jes' yer stake
out claim and so to work, and when
we finish here Wen come up too >
Then the new hand thanked the
honest miner, and the boys all
grinned appreciation of the joke,
That afternoon there was solitary
figure picking away on the slope, and
every time the miners looked up they
laughed, The next day the greenhorn
struck pocket and took out something
like $50, 900 in a few minutes. Then,
innocent to the last, he treated all
around and thanked the miner who had
sent him up there and took his money
and went down into the valley and
bought him farm. Then the unhappy
miners arose. leaving their old claims,
and dotted the hillside for days. But
there were no more pockets anywhere.
The whole thing reads like traditional
fairy story. But then, saw the gulch.
Much more unbelievable things have
happened in the mines.

TIE success of the HERALD, as our
esteemed Republican contemporary, the
San Bernar,lino indcr, remarked the
other day, is something phenomenal. 1t
has been won by downright honesty and
plain dealing. In retrospect of the
career of this paper, as administered
editorially for over eight years by us,
we are pleased to see that we have
opposed every humbug idea and every
rotten politician, which or who, accord.
ing to the exigencies OF the English
grammar, have made their appearance in
this city and county during that time.
We have helped, during that whole
period, to elect large number of splen-
did Democrats, and not, in the whole
number has there proved to be q de-
faulter or scrub. Nine out of ten of
the men supported by the HERALD for
office during this almost decade have
been elected. In few instances, as in

pressure of high popular excitement,

on the ill-advised judgment of the peo-
pie without the imprimatur of this
journal. We knew that West was a
fraud ab initio. He belonged to
the disgusting, demagogic breed,
who are ready to promise everything
and to perform nothing. Of which this

to make it worth while to buy him off,

when he reached Sacramento, was to
sell out the sumptuary law plank OF the
San Jose platform on which, prior to the
election, he ostensibly stood. With
these exceptions, the experiences of the
HERALD, in attaining its marked and
exceptional prosperity, have been meas.
urably pleasant. We have every reason
to believe that the future will surpass
the past in things of agreeable import to
this journal.

be decided to be, goes for the cleanly

towns. Indian filth, endured for ages,
is to that extent protection. In view
Of our coutiguity to this plaguc.infected
region, and Of tho advent OF Winter,
which will arrest its progress even in
Sonora and Sinaloa. it would be
good idea to apply ourselves
to improving the sanitary conditions Of
Los Angeles. We should not trust too
much TO our matchloss climate. We
have reached stage 10 which the per.
fecting Of our sewerage system is an alb.
solute duty. We cannot expect always
to postpone this cxigent obligation. We
have attained stage Of growth in which
what was desigod originally as the main
sewer OF the city Is absolutely aud hope
lessly insufficient Awaiting ourselves
Of all tho facilities thus already secured
we ought to project and carry into exc
cution lar larger sewerage system, win
ample provision for flushing all the sew
ers in the Summer months. The fact
that, during the coming Winter, Nature
will do this Office for us, ought not to
lull US into false security. Nature has
made Los Angeles almost the healthicst
spot upon the American continent. Ar
tiiicially, by crowding immense masses
of human beings into our old Pueblo, we
impinge upon this benign arrangement.
Let us soc to it that, during the coming
period Of six months grace, we shall so
put our house in order that, no matter
how maIarial and endemic and epidemic
diseases shall rage elsewhere, here they
shall find NO lodgment.

lS late issue of the HERALD we dwelt
upon the. singular fact that, although
Los Angeles county is so specially adapt.
ed, in climate and other respects, TO the
cultivation OF the hop, thus far we knew
OF only one man who had yentured upon
this industry upon large scale. We
stated that the pecuniary results in his
case had been eminently satisfactory,
He had been previously engaged in the
raising OF hops in New York, and said
that he could realize three dollars for
one, in the same pursuit, on the same acre.
age in Los Angeles county, the soil being
so infinitely more productive here, and
tho weather conditions guaranteeing an
absolute immunity from mildew and all
other ills that attach to the growth OF
hops in the Eastern states and in Europe,
evils which, last year, raised the price
of this indispensable staple from twenty
four cents to 81 aud upwards pound.

man, late of Santa Ana, who informs us
that Mr.. J. b. Rains, near Santa Ana,
is an addition to the number OF hop
growers in this county, and is probably,
by long odds, the largest. Last
year Mr.. Rains, on twenty acres OF land,
raised fifty thousand pounds of hops,
which he sold for twenty -four cents n
pound, realizing $4,000 off of his land, or
an average Of 5000 au acre. just think

not yet been told. If Mr.. Rains, instead
of crowding his hops into the market
early, had held them, as many farmers
very sensibly hold their wheat and bar.
ley, on hand, he would have received
round American dollar for every pound
Of his hops. In other words, he would
have cleared, from his twenty acres of
Santa Ana soil, fully $50, 200, or an av-
erage of 50, 800 an acre. OF course this
kind of thing cannot be done often
But, with the great devastation
which has been wrought in the
hop production by the unfavorable
weather OF last year, this staple will, for
a long time to come, command excep.
tionally high figures. With the ability
of Los Angeles county to produce hops
in the proportion OF three pounds to
one, as compared with Eastern and
European fields, we know of nothing
so inviting rs this business. In addi.
ton, so spontaneous is the wood growth
in Los Angeles county, that eucalyptus
slips, of the requisite height and size
for hop poles, can he grown in a few
months in this sectiom In the interest
OF diversifying our products, the HER.

to growing hops right and left. Collect

TmE growth Of the southern portion Of
Los Angeles county Is q marvel in a
section in which advances of all kinds
trench upon the marvellous. Ten years
ago the editor of the HERALD took u
stage trip from Los Angeles to San
Diego, where he was then engaged in
editing daily paper. South of Ana
helm, with the exception OF Post Office
and grocery store in one, and black
smith shop, at the then tentative.
almost invisible, Tustin City, there was
not house to be seen from the stage
road between Anaheim and San Juan
Capistrano. Now there are at least two
settlements south OF Anaheim larger
than many New England towns of note
which are two or three hundred years
old, and these spontaneous and ncwling
settlements are signalized by a growth
and prosperity, in every line of life,
which are almost without precedent in
California or elsewhere. Santa Ana is
the more prominent of these miraculous
growths. There is no exaggeration in
saying that tho visitor who will hire a
buggy in Santa Ana, and who will drive
down to Tustin City, win pass more
elegant and elaborately ornate homes
than are now embraced in the ample
expanse of the San Gabriel valley, ex-
Guiding Pasadena, although the one is
about hundred years old aud the other
scarcely numbers lustrum in years.
The HERALD feels like exclaiming,
''Speed the good work" Nevertheless,

The drear and grisly facts. OF the
devastation of the yellow or Tonto fever
in the northern States of Mexico, this
Summer and Fall, are not well under
stood. Some of the details of this
calamity, which have not appeared in
the newspapers, have reached us. We
do not care to dwell upon them, they
are so affective to the humanitarian.
The old idea was that fell pestilence,
which amounted to so much as a deci.
nation, was something inexpressibly
horrible. In the present instance, in
many portions of Sonora and Sinaloa,
defamation is a mild and inadequate
expression of the still-existing calamity.
Strange to say, in proportion to the
possession of Caucasian blood in those
States, has been the mortality. The
nearer to the true Castilian blood the
greater has been the death rate, and the
American has even led the Castilian in
the frightful calendar. Unlike small;

it was kingly. Nor was this feeling of
cordial welcome confined TO the Templar
fraternity, The entire Pacific slope

TBE old formula, an incident OF n
thimblerig game Of NOW you see it and
now you don't" has been lately illus
trated In the fluctuations OF the Willard
stocks. A week ago the Northern
Pacific stocks, preferred and common,
with their subsidiary stocks, were
plunging down to the lowest deeps OF
the financial slough Of despond. The
prescient d. o. Mills, late of this State,
was represented TO be loser to the
extent Of 50. 600, 900 through these fuc.
tuations. The probability is that, as d.
o. Mills did not sell out any of his hold
ings at the abnormally depressed figures,
he did not lose cent. II the market
shall keep its present course he will
probably, instead Of being loser, turn
out to bo a big winner. as he has always
done hitherto. Verify, the ways of our
modern finance and iinanciers are mys-
terious beyond the computation of the
average human being.
