The banquet given by Mr.. R. Bidder
rain seems 10 have had singular effect
ON some newspaper reporters. One Of
them stated that all the Deputy Asses
sors were present and representatives
from the city press except the HERALD
and Express, which was important but
not true. The HERALD had rspres-
entative there and gave correct
account of the exercises without re-
ferring to other newspapers in terms
intended to be a slight, while an after
noon paper states the name OF their re
porter, who was present, and also the
name OF another reporter OF a morning
paper as present. Such verdancy aud
lack OF newspaper ethics is seldom met
with. For a newspaper reporter to
parade his name, as present at feast as
an Invited guest is peculiar journal
ism. How would it look in METRO
politan journal. What newspaper
would SO far forget good taste in such
matters. A public Journal is supposed
to be impersonal in all such matters.
The HERALD follows the custom Of all
leading journals in this respect.
II. L. Lcavitt was yesterday arrested
and taken before Justice Morgan on
charge of embezzlement. He gave bail
in the sum Of $1,000 to appear for exam
ination. The complaint recites that he
was entrusted in San Francisco, last
winter, with pawn ticket for q gold
watch in soak in Los Angeles, and given
the money to redeem and forward the
watch to the owner. Now 1t is charged
that he reported that he lost the ticket,
while the pawnbroker states that he
gave 1t to him in March last and sold the
watch. pocketing the proceeds. The case
is rich on q detective.
I Yrhe Iowa Prohibition law having gone
into OBJECT on the 4th instant, the rail-
ways of that State refuse to receive any
intoxicating liquors for transportation
over their lines. OR Los Angeles ship
pers of wine will bear this in mind and
not attempt to ship into or through that
State. Now let the California railroads
refuse to transport the hams and lard
and bacon and eggs of Iowa, and the
quarrel will be fair Offset in which
both parties will be ashamed Of them
selves.
Weare informed that most all Of the
work Of repairing the railroad in Temec-
ula Canon and Of gathering the material
OF that road scattered thereabout, that
can be done for the present, has been
done, but that Roadmaster Patten,
nevertheless, has been instructed by the
National City authorities 10 keep his
men at work doing something, SO as to
