THERE are two significant things which
have been lately developed in our cur
rent politics. The first is that the Dem
ocratic party shows no disposition what
ever to do rash things In Congress Col.
Morrison, who was the chief Of the raw
head and bloody bones brigade, and who
is the Chairman of the Ways and
Means Committee, only proposes to re-
port bill which horizontally reduces
the tariff by from fifteen to twenty per
cent, with the stipulation that, when
this reduction ia less than the Morrill,
Republican tariff of 1861, 1t shall not
count. All Democrats who were in
doubt as to the future of the party on the
tariff issue will now draw breath OF re-
lief. Tue next pregnant proposition is
that the Democratic party in New York
and In Ohio proved itself able to carry
those States in an of Democratic year.
In other words, il has carried Ohio twice
in succession for the first time since the
Republican party was first organized,
and it has twice carried New York as to
all candidates on the Democratic State
ticket who were not teetotallers. The
lesson of this New York election, which
was decisive victory, Notwithstanding
the malapropos and purely accidental
appearance Of prohibitionist on the
Democratic State ticket for Secretary OF
State, Is that is an anti-sumptuary law
plank should be inserted in the platform
Of the next Democratic National Con
vention. In that sign, to reproduce the
phylactery of the Emperor Constantine,
we shall most assuredly conquer.

IT has been some consolation to the
pride of Angelenos. when their attention
is called TO Chinatown, that all cities
have their blemishcs. This is nowhere
more apparent than in the great COM
mercial centers like London, Paris and
New York. For years we have needed
some snch solace to our sslflove. Mig
ger Alley Is to-day, Notwithstanding the
prodigious advances which have been
made in this city aud county, precisely
what 1t was when Los Angeles was n
'dobie town and the county was range
for wild horses, cattle and sheep. While
we have made splendid advances In the
taste and judgment shown in the erec.
tion of new and costly buildings; while
we have also created attractive suburban
regions which are almost entirely free
from the Irregularities OF the older por-
tions Of the city, we have nevertheless
tolerated blotches upon the fair face OF
our pueblo which cannot be rivaled In
any town on the American Continent,
even the old "Five Points" OF New York
City having had dnothing comparable to the
hideousness Of our own Chinatown. We
are glad to learn that an energetic move
ment Is now under way to expunge this
blot upon our civilization. We are II
course conversant with the fact that nu-
merous abortive efforts have been made
to the same end in the past. There Is q
form and purpose about the present cru
sade, however, which lead us to believe
that Chinatown will soon be as extinct
as Carthage Of old. Present and future
denizens Of this city will rise up aud
bless the men who shall be instrumental
in the demolition Of this nuisance.

THE Los Angeles river is fuller than
for years and years past, and it will take
but little more liberality on the part of
the clerk OF the weather to give us an
old-time hood-such an one as, in the
past, has changed the courses of our
streams and made two rivers where but
one existed before. In San Diego, where
the watersheds are extensive and the
length OF the famous dry river of that
name is nothing to speak of, they are al
ready having taste of foods.
