THE poet hath it that time at last
makes all things even, time hath its
revenges, etc, etc. There are even
oblique references to the whirligig of
time in the works of the most APP
proved bards, all these poetical saws
going to confirm an observation which
would have approved itself to the soul
OF Sancho Panza himself, and which
confirms the truth of that ancient OBJ
servation running, "the case being
altered that alters the case" Through
the medium of the late elections SEN
ator Farley, Democrat, of California,
and Senator Malone, political her
maphrodite, of Virginia, will be re-
tired, in the ease of Farley probably
only temporarily, to the private sta
tion. This would still leave the SEN
ate as it stands now, with one Repub-
lican majority. The returns from
Illinois look as if the Legislature of
that State will be a tie. In that event
Logan will also retire to the shades of
private life, and all the Democrats
would have to do to give Vice Presi-
dent Hendricks the casting vote would
be to lock horns with the Republicans.
This operation might be continued
until the tenure OF Office bill, an
unconstitutional device, intended to
tie the hands OF President johnson,
is repealed. 1t might also be desra-
BILE to continue it long enough to add
seven or eight good Democrats to the
Supreme Court of the United States
Should there, however, prove to be a
Republican majority in the Illinois
legislature it is absolutely incumbent
upon the Democracy to secure Rid
dleberger. The same cogent logic
which was effectual with Malone,
under Republican dialectics, will
doubtless, under Democratic auspice J..
be efiectual with his colleague. The
one having proved himself open to
the iair processes OF logic, the other
cannot well do less. The same per-
suasive agencies which the Good and
Morality party" brought to bear on
Malone should certainly be open to
the Democratic party, which has the
honest intention OF sweeping as clean
as all other new brooms are supposed
to do.

THE vote of Los Angeles county at
the late election lacks fraction OF
eleven thousand. 1t is II matter well
understood by those who watched the
struggle to vote in the city, in pre-
cincts like that at Turnverein Hall
the White House, and others, that
fully one thousand ballots were lost
in this city alone This shows how
amazingly our population has in
creased. The highest vote hitherto
polled in this county was 1912, which
was gathered into the ballot boxes
two years ago, when Stoneman was
elected Governor. Ii there had been
a sufiiciency of polling places the vote
OF Los Angeles county this year would
have exceeded that of Alameda
county. As ii is, it is nip and tuck be-
tween the county by the Bay and the
Orange Grove county. Make way foI
the future teeming center of California

WHILE the silent hostility OF Roscoe
Conkling and the affirmative hostility
of st. John and his Prohibtionists
were all potential in bringing about
the defeat of Blaine in New York, the
real coup de grace of the Plumed
Knight was dealt out by the Rev
Burchard, at the meeting OF ministers
at the Fifth Avenue Hotel. This
Reverend Stiggins OF the Republican
party mathematical the Democracy as
a combination OF " Rum, Romanisn
and Rebellion" This alliterative bou
quet ut once attracted the attention o
the Roman Catholic Irish who wer,
tempted to vote for Blaine, and the
procession halted, with the result Of ,
small but secure plurality for GroveI
Cleveland. II is hinted that the Rev
Henry Ward Beecher set up the Rev
Burchard to his allterative task. l
this is true it is an exemplification o
the ordinary idea of the word Jesuit
ism. All the same, il cooked Blaine
goose.

and he has printed them. For some
weeks past this gentleman has been
contributing to his journal number
of very interesting articles devoted TO
Los Angeles county He is leading
member Of the California sportsman's
Association, and acquitted himself OF
several highly enjoyable screeds de-
scriptive Of the doings of that decid-
edly creditable and beneficial organi-
cation during its recent session in this
city. OF the exhibits at our Agd-
cultural Fair proper, held in Turn
verein Hall, Mr.. Harnett writes:
Along with the races, the Agricult-
ural Fair deserves some notice, rs in
many respects il was creditable 10 the
district. The exhibits in horses, cat
tie, pigs, poultry, cereals, vegetables,
fruits, flowers and fancy articles were
not large, but 80 far as they went were
Of excellent character. The only ex-
hibits disappointing me were the
fruits and vegetables. naturally ex-
pected from the rich soil, abundance
Of water for irrigation, and the favora-
Bile climate, TO have seen these cN-
hibits much finer and more numerous
than they were. While, however, in
character they were unquestionably
fine, they did not seem to me 10 ex-
eel - in some cases not even to
equal, the same exhibits at the north
ern fairs, and as n fruit and vegetable
raising country, Los Angeles county
has TO wait few years TO lead the
State in such productions. The ex-
hibts of wheat and potatoes were
eminently good, the latter being bet
ter than have seen for n long time.
The largest squash or pumpkin,
whichever il may be called, on show
at the pavilion weighed 1913 pounds,
The dried fruits deserve special men
tion, for they embraced all kinds and
were perfect. In canned fruits Los
Angeles beats the State so far as my
experience goes, and her local wines
may be ranked very high in our
products of that class. Here the
mission grape, the best for wine man
ufacture, grows larger and sweeter
than anywhere that ] have seen. In
oranges, lemons, citrons and decidu-
ous fruits, of course, the exhibits
were far ahead Of State competition,
and they might be favorably com
pared with the choice products of the
Mediterranean. The best Of these
came from Pasadena, Downey,
Duarte and other suburban districts.
at the foot Of the hills, or where they
were more sheltered from fogs than
around the city. Many samples of
corn were immensely large and well
developed. The banana trees with
fruit on were interesting, but one Of
the exhibitors and owner of one of
the best lots, told me that this fruit
was not success even down here.
The desert palm of the Mohave and
Colorado deserts was conspicuous
and large. The fibre of this plant is
the best material known for making
paper, and it is intended to try it on
our desert places. There was fine
exhibit of newly obtained tropical
and semi-tropical plants, which at
tracted much attention.

Hung by Thread.

An explanation OF the hanging Of the mur-
derer Wasielewsky at San Jose, by means
of single hair, Is given as follows: The
gallowstrap on which the condemned stood
had double doors, swinging from the center
to both sides These doors constituting the
trap, were held in position so as TO form a
spring bolt. The bolt was sprung, thus
opening the man weight trap, but the falling
OF fourteen-pound weight. This weight
wassuspended by small cord which came
up to the rail on the gallows, back of the
condemned. The cord, instead of being at
once and simply fastened was wound around
n "barrcl," which might have been short
section of the large end of a broem stick.
This barrel was lying In horizontal po-
sition, parallel with the rail, and held few
inches above II by upright supports Mt either
end. The cord holding tthe weight was
wound around the barrel until the resisting
power of the friction almost held the
weight This almost" was arrived at by
previons experiments, until 1t wns reduced
| TO such n fine point that the additionaI
| strength OF Il single hair was enough to sus-
pend the weight; or more properly, prevent
the cord from slipping. one end OF the hair
| n screw driven in the birrel. When the
| hair was cut the cord slipped arouud the
barrel, the fourteen pound weight drop
| ped ten feet, springing the trlpbolt, and
| Wasiclewsky shot through the opening. 1t
| Is stated that Judge Belden,w who tried Waste
| lewsky. suggested this peculiar scheme OF
retributive Justice, b It the details were
worked out by sheriff Barnhnn. The hair
which was used came from II lock Of the
| murdered woman's hair In the possession of
| her brother. The bare statement that the
murderer was dropped by the cutting of a
| single hair Is calculated to make one gasp In
| trying to swallow II, but one need only re
member that a single man can hold mn ocean
| steamer against the tide, with n hawser
wound enough times around pile, to un-
derstand the resisting force OF friction
