As Others See Us

In the Sibley county (Minnesota) In-
pendent, of April 25th, we find the
following impressions from the former
publisher of that paper, MIR. ID. Pickett,
who has recently become resident of
this city, and is capable of enjoying the
good things of this life:
arrived in this city at noon on the
goth of January. At that particular
time believe the thermometer indicat-
ed about thirty degrees below zero in
Minnesota. Here the streets were per-
fectly dry, the grass green and the sun
shining as brightly as in June in Mime
sofa. My first week here was one of
warm and clear days and cool nights
Then the rain began, and for the next
fifteen days scarcely a twentyfour
hours passed that did not bring more or
less, and generally more, of that article,
from the heavens and deposit it Just
where it was universally conceded it
would do more good than it could do
upon any other spot upon the face of the
globe. This was well, but if the down
pour had not persisted in its deteimin-
alton to become perpetual it would have
been better; at least the winter would
have been more pleasant AMI few
people less disgusted The amount of
rain that usually falls here during a
winter is from ten to fifteen inches, but
this winter not less than forty inches have
fallen. Do not understand that it has
rained continuously, for there have been
many days and a few whole weeks of
very pleasant weather.
Los Angeles, "the City of the An.
gels, covers an area nearly equal to a
Congressional township, or nearly six
miles square, the business portion being
in about the center Within this six
miles square, or thirty six square miles,
the population has increased since the
census of 1850 from little more than
II, 200 to more than 25,000 inhabitants.
Loss ssAngeles is said to be century old,
but it is within the memory OF her young
men, "to the manner born,' that her
buildings were all one-story adobes and
her streets nothing but cow-paths. Had
you, dozen years ago, the presumption
to suggest to then City Father that to-
day the population of the city would
reach its present number, that the Los
Angeles river would be piped into every
abode, that horse cars would be running
to the outskirts of the city,
that gas and electric lights would
illuminate her streets, that colleges, uni
versities and a score of churches would
be founded, and hundreds of business
blocks of magnificent proportions,
erected, that she would be connected by
rail not only with the adjacent harbors
OF the Pacific, but with the Golden Gate
and the British possessions of the North,
with the ancient city of the Montezumas
on the South, with the Red rivers, with
the Cults, with Lake Itasca and with
the Creole City, with the Adirondacks
and with Manhattan Island, you would
probably have been forthwith arrested
as either madman or fool. The then
coming events castso uncertain shadow
that few of even the wise ones of that
day OWNED the future. As many, indeed,
have been made masters Of the situation
because they could not help themselves,
as have made themselves masters by a
wise insight into the future.

WHILE the statement that Mr.. l.. j.
Rose has sold his Sunny Slope property
was premature negotiations are undoubt'
edly under way which will probably re-
suit in its sale. The sum named, $3.50,
900, though large is not excessive. Two
Thousand acres of land, half of it in
vines, seven thousand bearing orange
trees and splendid water right, to-
gether with mammoth warehouses, wine
presses and stills are really worth well
up in the millions. A favorite idea of
the HERALD, which will not seem so alb
surd five years hence as it does now,
has always been that au acre of good
land in the San Gabriel valley with a
good water right will be worth at least
$1,000. This superb property, which Mr..
Rose seems at last willing to sell, repre-
sents twenty years of dauntless energy
and unceasIng labor. That he has
earned surcease of toll none of his ap-
preciative fellow citizens will feel like
disputing.

The long deferred failure of James r

that when he gets into deep waters he

twenty years ago, would have been re-

One Of the great beauties Of properly
made mines and brandes Ia that thoy
improve with age. Our old vineyardists
are now either rich or rapidly becoming
so, and can afford to store and grade the
products Of their stills and wine presses.
while the new comers are generally
forehanded and able to do the same.

A Bee Story.

Miss Valhe Case, principal of La
Sierra public school in this county, is
responsible for the following bee story:
Recently, on opening the stove, in
which there had been no fire for several
days, she was surprised to find that a
colonly Of bees had taken possession of
it and commenced making honey comb.
To get into the stove the bees came
down the chimney and pipe, making the
turn of two elbows before reaching the
bottom. The bees, on being disturbed
in their work, attacked the pupils
vigorously and drove them out of the
school house. The school mistress
escaped injury by flaming the bees
industriously with her pocket handker-
chief. The bees were at last thoroughly
subdued by being smoked ont and
killed. San Beraardiao Inder.
Daily Los Angeles herald., 1884-05-02

Our vineyardists have now substanti.
ally passed the period OF peril to their
vines and are looking forward to one of
the largest and best crops ever gathered
in this section. The yield will be large
and beyond precedent. While our
climatic claims have been temporarily
shaken by the prodigal downpours of
this phenomenal season, the rains have
at the same time been of incalculabe
eneft to all root crops. An unpreced-
ented acreage has been set out in vinss
this year and the old, hap-hazard
system of selecting the varieties has
been done away with. Only approved
kinds of wine.making grapes are now
planted, and it is very rare, indeed, to
sec the Mission grape adopted. The
fullest experiments have demons
trated the fact that to set out this old
time favorite is a waste both of time and
money. Los Angeles county ought to-
make fully s3,000,0O0 worth of wines
and brandies this year. Notwithstand-
ing the apprehension in some quarters
that the vineyard business viii be over
done, we are as yet apparently as distant
as ever from that calamity. The de-
maud still keeps abreast of and even
exceeds the supply. The crucial test of
this proposition will come in about three
years from now, when an enormous area
of new vineyards will come into bear
ing. Our own belief is that, by that
time, through a diligent spreading
abroad of the claims of our pure grape
brandies and wines we shall still find

Tariff Debate to Close Next Tues
day.

uAN.
WASHINGTON, May In the House
the morning hour was dispensed with,
and Morrison moved that the House 60
into committee of the whole on the Tariff
bill, and pending that, moved that all
general debate on the bill be closed at 4
o'clock Tuesday next.
Randall said he had no objection to
closing debate, but hoped he would be
afforded an hour on Tuesday.
Mckinley gave notice that, at the
conclusion of general debate, motion
would be made to strike out the enactipg
clause.
Findley hoped debate was not going
to be choked off.
"There is no occasion for talking
about choking off, replied Morrison.
In reply to a question by Deuster, the
Speaker stated that up to the present
time, forty-three gentlemen had ad.
dressed the committee.
1t was agreed that private business be
suspended tomorrow, and the day de-
voted to tariff debate.
Morrisons limitation motion was
agreed to without division, and the
House went into Committee OF the
Whole, as indicated.
