An Afflicted Town.

EDITOR HERALD:-I read in your issue
Of Thursday, the 10th instant, cont
munication from Ben Martin, calling at.
tsntion to the filthy condition of por'
ton of San Gabriel. l can say this foi
Mr.. Martin that he is not too severe in
his remarks.
In the heart of the town occupied by
persons having families and who own
the property on which they live, on the
Main street, about 800 yards from the
San Gabriel Hotel, three nuisances are
maintained, two in the shape of China
wash houses, who allow their filthy
waters to collect in two large pools, which
are now filed with green death-dealing
waters, which have been collecting there
for years, having no outlet, other than by
evaporation and absorption by the soil.
The stencil arising therefrom these hot
days and nights, are enough to knock a
person down, who has occasion to pass
there. The two nuisances complained
of do not seem to satisfy the owners of
the property, or perhaps their appetite
for filth, but another is added in the
shape of pig.pen, not fifteen feet from
the road, where persons passing along in
their teams or on foot can have full view.
and full benefit of the stencil.
There is considerable sickness here
amongst children, and during the last
week two have died in this place, and
think the cause can be safely traced
to these filthy places.
The members of the families living in
this filth are always ailing, aud people
have warned them as to the cause, and
they take no heed. AS the cholera is
now raging in Europe, yellow fever in
Mexico; but, let one single case ever
obtain foothold in this beautiful val
ley. and God only knows where il will
end.
l hope that the Supervisors will take
some action. and that the citizens OF
this place will show the same spirit
that has prompted Mr.. Martin, and we
will never have occasion to fear any
disease. TAXPAYER.

Hail and Deluge at Riverside.

Friday, August 22d, 1884, will long be
remembered in Riverside, when this
season of phenomenal weather seemed
to eliminates About O'Clock in the
afternoon black clouds began to gather
in the southeastern horizon, and moved
toward the doomed town of Riverside.
Soon pattering drops of rain began to
fall, increasing faster and faster until it
seemed as though the flood-gates of
heaven were open. People looked on in
wonder, but when glistening white drops
of hail began to come down wonder
turned to dismay. The intensity of the
storm increased, Riverside streets were
rivers of water, the irrigating canals
overfowed their banks, cellars filled up
in few minutes, waste pipes from roofs
were unable to carry off the sudden
volume, and the interior of buildings
were drenched. Hail an inch in diameter
fell, but the average was about the size
of the end of the little finger.
The hardest of the storm did not last
much over half an hour. AS nearly as
we can ascertain now, the town OF Riv-
erside saw the severest of it, some rain
falling in the lower part of Arlington,
but no hail south OF the government
tract.
1 is impossible at this writing (Satur-
day morning) to learn or even guess at
the damage done, but persons we have
seen think that the grape crop in the
track OF the storm is badly damaged.
Oranges do not seem to have suffered,
but peaches and pears are all knocked
I, .FN 4. a
storm was about three miles wide. Very
little rain fell at Cotton, and none at
San Bernardino. About three inches OF
rain fell in Riverside. Some damage
was done by wind, two windmills hay
ing collapsed so far as we have heard,
and some trees broken down.
Three bents are gone from the flume
on the lower canal, and the damage done
to both main canals will take weeks to
repair.-Press and Horticultural.

THR fiasoo Of Saturday night ls con.
ceded even by Republicans TO have been
triste 10 the extreme. They endeavored
to account for the lack Of enthusiasm by
belitiling the orator OF the day, with In
timaiions that Fitch is getting old and is
not the man he once was, etc, etc. This
is an ungrateiul device. Since the first
time we heard the cidesant ''Silver
Tongue" he has become greatly ideal
lied in his personal appearance, and he
has perhaps advanced intellectually and
morally as well as physically, but the
truth Is that the dishonest characters
tics Of his candidate sit heavily upon
the soul Of Don Tomaso. He tries TO
ignore Blaine's blank dishonesty; but,
from = sensitive moral fibre begotten In
him In Arizona, Fitch Is no longer so
eallous TO moral ebliquities Us he once
was. The Mulligan letters parhlyzed
him, rs they paralyzed the audience
which listened to him, the result being
memorably tame and uneventful rally
--tame and uneventful, though II had
been advertised for weeks.
Daily Los Angeles herald., 1884-08-26

The other day Gov. Hoadly, of Ohio,
put in an appearance at the Democratic
National Headquarters, in New York
City. He had no hesitation in express.
ing the opinion that the Democrats would
carry Ohio in the October election. Why
should they not? For two years in sue.
cession Ohio has shown herself to be
staunchly Democratic. Last year the
undaunted Ohio Democracy elected
Hoadly though he was in the full access
of an attack of typhoid fever at the time,
If Blaine shall fail to carry Ohio in the
October election his goose is cooked. All
the same, the Democratic party, in view
of the certainty of their carrying New
York, New Jersey, Indiana and Connec-
ticut, have q sure and solid thing with
the ''solid South" without the Buckeye
State. To make the Democratic situa.
tion something like a walk-over is the
imminent certainty that Cleveland and
Hendricks will carry Pennsylvania, Wis
consin, Illinois, and, shall we say, Iowa
and Kansas, owing to the detection Of
the German vote in those Statesl
But we forbear. We desire to leave
to our adversaries some such forlern
hope as was noted in the Wing campaign
of 1852, when General Winfield Scott
carried four States, the antipodes OF
which were Vermont and Kentucky,
against the tremendous roster rolled up
by the Democratic candidate, General
Franklin Pierce.

DEVOTED TO DEATH.
Another Idiotic Trip to the North
Pole.

SAN Francisco, Aug. 25.-The
Chronicle Philadelphia says: At a ban
auet rendered to the Greedy expedition
officers by the New York Yacht Club,
of which James Gordon Bennett, Jay
Gould and Cyrus w. Field, Jr., are
members, Chief Engineer Melville made
long speech, in which hs set forth the
feasibility of settling once for all the
question of an open Arctic sea, and stat.
ed his willingness to take command of
such an expedition. Mr.. Field, in re-
ply, said he was convinced of the truth
of Melville's t cory, and would advance
half the sum necessary to fit the expe.
dition out if other membels of the yacht
club would subcribe the remainder. The
amount was subcribed on the spot The
expedition will sail some time next year.
