PRoF. PoHSDoRfF, in his recent visit
to this section OF the State, lays
the following compliment To the
soil of San Diego for the olive. 1t may
also be added that Los Angeles county
has large area Of ferruginous soil, in
which the olive grows apparently for the
very love of growing. The whole Cahu-
enga range, from Santa Monica to La
Providcncia, is impresnated with iron
and is the natural home of the olive.
This is what the eminent professor says,
in the San Francisco Merchant, about
this royal tree:
"Right before the Horton House there
is an open square, the center of which
is fenced in and serves for an ornamental
garden. Among the shrubs in this en-.
closure Mr.. Alvarado, one of the old
California proprieto,s, who gave me such
valuable intm nation of the region where
his parents lived before him, called my
attention to two young olive trees about
five feet high These young trees,
which, as four or five years branches
had been put into the ground there, in a
simple hole without further preparation.
had on that day, the 23d of March, an
abundance of fruit blossoms on them and
are of surprising vigor aud beauty Of
foliage. The fertile soils OF sandy loan,
when their power is excited by water,
may give good results, but the noble
tree of Minerva will also perform its
functions without that stimulant from
man. hand, nature having, at least in
many parts of San Diego and where no
hard pan underles the abundant iron
oxide soil, sufficient moisture stored be-
meath.

A Significant Keynote.

The Republican State Convention, Of
New York, which met at Utica, the other
day, formulated resolutions recommend.
ing the suspension OF the coinage OF
silver and the adoption of the
single standard Of gold. During the
early part of last week the HERALD con.
tained, in two successive issue', editorial
leaders dwelling upon the importance Of
the silver product TO this county and to
the United States, and asserting that
the moneyed leaders Of the Republican
party were devoted 10 the adoption OF
the British standard OF gold. This Gle.
ment has nothing 50 much at heart ns
the retirement and curtailment Of the
greenbacks, their funding In the shape
of interest. bearing bonds and the de
struction OF silver rs an element Of the
circulating med um. As we intimated
last week, this means putting the Amer.
ican people in sort OF financial straight
Jacket. II means, In short
while, the setting Of the country
up at auction by the oapi alists and sell
ing it out by the hammer. 1t means,
further, that the whole welfare of the
Pacific Coast aud OF the masses Of the
people Is to be sacrificed to the mono
Gratis. This is no Democratic outgiving,
devised by the leaders Of the opposition
to discredit tho party in power. 1t is
the deliberate aspiration Of the kepubli'
cans of the Empire State, who would
stranglo the free and distinctive life oi
the new world to chain the United
| States to the chariot wheels OF lot oi
hugger.muggering British capitalists aud
their traitorous afliliators in this coun-
| try. We have too recently gone into
details ia this matter to make II expedi-
ent to discuss its several momentous ma.
tional aspects in eatenso just now, but
we shall shortly recur to it.
Western people, especially those vot'
ers who reside west of the Rocky Noun.
ta,ns, ought to know, in view Of such an
authoritative oulgiving of thesmug New
York Republicans, just where they
stand politically y-or, rather, econon,i'
cally. "Undrr which king, Bezoniani
Speak or die!'
Certainly No Angoleno ought to have
any difficulty in deciding with which
party he will ufiiliate when such NOR
tai blow is aimed at the prosperity OF
the city in which he lives.
The truth is, few Angelenos know how
their city is now being enriched by sill
yer mines. They ought to study ont
this local question aud vote accordingly.
