ing copy of the Los Angeles DAILY
HERALD, were found to be in fine state
OF preservation.
The edifice will be very prominent

pare unfavorably with the half-dozen
fiue new churches that have been recent
ly erected in that part of the city.
Messrs. Kysor & Morgan have taken the
utmost pains to make this ediice beauti
full and imposing.

THE man who secures thousand acres
Of alfalfa land in Los Angeles county,
and who starts in on the proposition OF
raising graded cattle for beef, is bound
to make fortune. The profits Of orange
groves and vineyards have been so ex-
travagant that one scarcely ventures the
assertion that tho man who devotes him.
self to the raising Of graded cattle will
exceed tho profits Of both; but, at the
same time, we believe it. While the
world may possibly become prohibi.
ZIONIST, II will never become vegetarian.
Los Angeles county ought to become the
mart where graded cattle and mutton for
the shambles shall be leading industry
in the near future. That 1t is not SO
now Is owing to the stupidity of people
who are neglscting their opportunities.

Mr.. CASSIDY, the gifted and eloquent
Democratic Congressman from the State
of Nevada, has given an entirely new
versien to accounts of tho call which
the California delegation was known to
have made, lately, upon Mr.. Tilden, at
Gramercy Park. 1t has generally been
thought, as a result OF that visit of cere.
mony, that Mr.. Tilden had peremptorly
declined, under any circumstances. to be
a candidate for President. On the
contrary, Mr.. Cassidy reports Mr.. Til.
den to be in a state OF pronounced physi.
cal and intellectual vigor. The impress.
sion left upon the gifted Nevada states-
man was that, if Mr.. Tlden was disposed
to be the Democratic nominee, he would
be veritable stalwart; and further, that
II the Democratic party needed him,
he would be on hand. like modern 10.
litical Hercules. That the party and
the country need him cannot well be
doubted. With Tilden as the phylac.
terry inscribed on the Democratic ban
ners, representing, as he does, every
wholesome Democratic principle, the re-
suit would not be doubtful even for the
forty-second subdivision of second
The verdict would be for Tilden, De-
mocracy and the rectiiication of an in
famous electoral anl constitutional mis-
adventure.

Of the fact that tho lady who is about 10

FoRTuNATELy for the sense Of justice
Of the people of the United States there
is developing remarkable concordance
Of opinion among them. as to the fact
that Mr.. TiIden was elected President in
tho year Of grace, 1876. There has, as
q consequence, been great degree Of
Indifference as to our politics since the
Eight to Seven delivery Of that famous.
not to say Infamous, year, which nulli-
fed, by Congressional device, the will
Of the people. Wearo not without hope
that tho present year. in addition to see-

Notes From Petrolia.

The oil development at Petrolia APP
pears to have settled down to steady
and permanent business that is encour-
aging and will soon be very rewarding
All the storage is filed with oil which
has been pumped from the first well.
More tanks have been ordered and are
now due at the wells. The second well,
250 feet deep, has ten feet Of lubricating
oil standing in the casing aud it will be
put further down to obtain lighter
gravity of That valuable fiuid.
Work has been commenced on the
third well northeast of well No. |, and
in addition to the two engines already
on the ground for drilling aud pumping.
n portable rigging will be procured to
put down shallow wells in various parts
of the 900 acre tract, belonging to the
Chandler Oil Company. About fifty OF
these wells will be sunk, aud the create, t
center for lubricaiiug aud fuel oil in the
United States will be established at that
place and La Puente adjoining.
To further enhance the value Of the
oil. a sill aud refining works have been
purchased and in few days the most
valuable OF refined lubricating oil will
be made on the ground and adapted to
the finest and fastest running machinery.
The process will make oil now worth s 6
per barrel, worth S25 per barrel, at II
small shrinkage and expense. With
these steps accomplished the oil industry
will stand on its feet as one of the per-
manent sources OF wealth and prosper.
ity of this county. At the Puente
wells the oil is very tine, no better lubri-
eating oil in crude state can be found
in the United States, and the wells will
yield more than the storage capacity of
the tanks all the time. What is needed
at Puente is u powerful engine to pump
the wells, and tanks for the storage OF
oil. There is any amount OF petroleum
there, but not enough vigor displayed
in pumping the wells and shipping it.
At Petrolia the case is different.
There the operators appear to be going
right onward to establish a great and
permanent productive and manufactur-
ing industry, and are already assured
Of success. Los Angeles will be here
after known as the great oil center OF
the Pacific slope.

nopolists, or bloated bond holders, as
we have been termed by, was going to
say, raving madmen, but ! will be char
liable and call them ill-natured men.
/ hold that the business part of
the community represents in many re-
spects the best interests OF our whole
country aud business men, perhaps more
than any others, require stable govern
ment. They do not care so much about
policies, because they can adapt them
selves to policies, but they do want to
be able TO look forward TO stable and
uniform policy OF government. We
have met here simply as a voice to sng.
gest to the convention at Chicago what
Is the will Of the Republicans Of New
York, together with as many Democrats
as God has made rational and intelligent
(applause and laughter). We are not
here to inveigh against any other
prominent gentleman whose name
has been mentioned, nor make threats
that II our choice 10 not nominated we
won't play (laughter). We express our
wishes and then, II in the minority, we
will submit to the majority. Who Is
Chester A. Arthur! He is man who
has proved himself, under trying cir
cumstances, one Of the most able pre-
siding officers this nation has ever had.
That be has been subjected to the criti-
cism Of little men isno marvel. The enmity
displayed towards Arthur il nothing
compared to the invective heaped upon
Washington and also upon jackson,
Lincoln and Grant, up 10 Hayes. When
Hayes took the Presidency the country
had been SCARED with the fires of war
and as the physician applies sweet oil
and poultices to the skin OF scalded
,nan, so the nation needed u poultice
and it got it. Laughter.) When
elected Vice President, Mr.. Arthur had
been an ardent New York politician,
loyal to his party and his friends, carry.
ing himself, perhaps, beyond the line Of
prudence. But honor the man whose
imrrudence springs from the integrity
and loyalty Of his heart. (Applause.)
When by the terrible deed of an insane
man he became President. he forgot
things that he remembered merely
as o politician OF New York
and turned with greater trust
and wider horizon TO confront the
duties before him; and when it was nee
essay that he should sacrifice his bosom
friend rather than involve the country
in the old troubles aad bitterness again,
he gave up his friend. Now as to Civil
Service. / think investigation will show
that President Arthur was the first to
institute civil service reform. He be.
gan it when he was in the Custom House
and he still continues it. do not believe
in the nonsense of no third term. [
hold that If man proves competent he
should be put in for the third or fourth,
or even the fifth term. If by his acts
any man ever earned q denomination,
Arthur deserves his. l don't say the
election Of Mr.. Arthur is going to
ruin the country. The country will
prosper whoever is President, but it is
certainly the case that it's prosperity is
assured SO far as it can be assured
by the action of any one man.
