OSTRICH farming, the latest Of our 10.
cal industries, seems TO be a pecuniary
success. The bird thrives In Los Angeles
county, the feathers are Of n fair grade
and they command good price and
an unfailing market We have had
occasion to notice that almost the first
inquiry of our Eastern visitors is about
this farm. Many OF them, even when
they learn that it involves journey by
rail and vehicle to get sight OF this
novel chicken ranch, persevere to the
end The existence OF the camels turned
loose by the government many years ago,
and which have propagated themselves
in the valley of the Gila, taken In con
nection with the ostrich plantation. gives

VIZ are glad to see that the project of
holding Worlds Fair in San Francisco
is being taken earnestly in hand by the
solid men of the Golden State, 1t was
= happy thought, and we believe our
people owe the original suggestion to
Hon. NJ. d. Boruck, whose indefatiga-
bic labors did much to make the
knights Templar Conclave such pro-
nounced success. Right in the track of
the commerce aud travel between Asia
and Europe, no more fitting place for
such an enterprise could possibly be hit
upon than San Francisco, with possibly
the exception of New York. Some years
ago an effort was made to hold Worlds
Fair in the Empire City, but through the
total lack of interest of Gotham's bust
ness men the project fell through. The
expenses of colossal scheme of that
kind would, Of course, be immense; but,
to lessen them, there ought to be liberal
subscriptions by the railways aud other
corporations. the State ought t, make n
handsome appropriation and cveu the
national government might be induced
to lend helping hand. The pennsyl-
vania Central Railway Company sub
scribed million dollars towards making
the Centennial success, and doubtless
the Central and Southern Pacific Rail-
ways would meet the situation in lib
eral manner. BY all means, let us have
the Fair 1t will be of incalculable ben.
eft to the people OF this Coast.

A French court, on the second of this
month, sentenced the Marquis de Rays
to four years in prison for having
swindled lot Of people through Cape
Breton colony The scheme was fraud;
and, through its agency, the Marquis
was enabled to line his pockets com.
fortably. The French people have dis.
tinguished themselves honorably ever
since the French revolution by their i'm
partial administration Of justice. No
matter how high the rank or great
the wealth Of culprit may be, when
he stands in French dock he Is no bet
ter than the humblest peasant in the
land. If the gravity Of his offence calls
for II he goes into the galleys and rows
with the vulgar malefactors. There ia
more than suspicion in this country. OF
late yeas. that O different sort Of justice
is dealt out 10 the poor mon from that
administered to the rich, and that, in
fact, justice has become commodity 80
scarce aud dear that none but the rich
can hope to secure any Of il. In addition,
therich criminal caninterpose such delays
to the operation of the laws, eau employ
such trained skill in the process of con.
fusing justice that. in too many instances,
he escapes altogether. We can we'll sit at
the feet of the French damaliel and learn
thcreat lessons looking to the ceptainty
and impartiality Of the administration Of
the law.

THERE are large masses Of moderate
and sensible Republicans who think that
the bloody shirt has been 50 much worn
that 1t has become tho dirty shirt.
While large number of Western
organs Of the Republican party are
waving the red rag furiously the word
has gone out from headquarters in New
York that the country cannot be carried
for the party on that issue. 1t has been
determined to adjust the key notes for
the coming campaign to the tariff For.
tunately the Democratic majority Of the
House Of Representatives dominate the
situation and can derange all plans Of
campaign founded upon an assumption
that the business interests Of the coun.
try are to be disturbed by simply not
disturbing them. This is very en-
barassing position for our Republican
friends to be placed in, but 1t is never
theless just where they are, and such
mastery parliamentary leaders rs Ran
dali, Morrison, Cox and Carlisle know
well how to keep them there. Tariff
and revenue reform, not FREQ trade. will
be the watchwords of the Democracy,
and they are certainly acceptable to the
people.

Two Young Lions Killed.

The San Diego Snn says: On Satur.

Hope district, commonly known as TIE
Arroyo Barro, as two Of Mr.. Smiths
little gill, were passing along the road
from the house of Mr. Higbee to that of
Mr.. James, they saw two strange leok.
ing animals on the bridge ahead Of them.
Beng greatly fr;ghlcAed, they ran back
and informed Mr. IIigbee, who went to
the spot with Lis dog and found to his
utter surprise two young California lions.
The dog started after them In hot pur-
suit, and in short time compelled one
of them to take refuge in the top of a
walnut tree. Master Joe Tripplett was
sent for, and coming to the scene with
his rife he killed the lion ut single shot

knows very well that every acre Of land

lavished on railways were voted by Re.
publican Congresses, is very much con-
oerned about the present House Of Rep.
resentatives. 1t affects to think that
long years Of Republican prodigalty
can be repaired by partially Demo
cratic Congress while you could say Jack
Robinson, as il were. 1t is fact highly
to the honor Of the Democratic party
that the assembling at Washington of n
Democratic House Of Representatives
always and at once disorganizes the lob
by. The New York Herald has had the
grace to cnll the attention Of the people
to this fact. OF one thing the Chronicle
may be fully assured, and that is that no
favors will be granted to the railways
by the present Democratic House. Mr..
Huntington appreciated the situation
by announcing that no effort would
be made to obtain for the Southern Pa
cific the land grant of the Texas. Pacific
Railway during the present Congress.
That declaration of itself tells the whole
story of the relations of the two great
national parties to the corporations.

The Possibilities of Land Culture.

A remarkable illustration of what may
be done with ten acres of land only, has
been furnished by fruit planter named
Dillon, OF Woodland, California. Six
years ago he planted five acres with
Muscatel grapes, since which he has ad.
ded two more acres. He has also plant.
ed one acre with prunes, nectarines and
peaches. From the five acres iint men
toned his gross returns last year were
$1,000. Last year he planted three.
fourths of an acre of beets, which yield.
ed thirty-iiye tons. By the aid of these,
and little bran or shorts, he kept a span
of horses and two cows seven months,
besides which he sold $50 worth of beets.
One OF the cows yields from 10 pounds
to II pounds of butter per week, be-
sides the milk which the planters
small family uses. BY the side of his
fencing Dillon further planted 20
walnut trees, which have borne fruit for
two years. From the wood cut from
these trees this year in the trimmings he
made little over three cords Of stove

interests on Turkey Creek, consist ng OF
fourteen claims, to Theodore Case, OF
Turkey Creek, tor $50, 900. he money
being paid over aud the deed placed on

made mention Of this property hereto

by simply doing assessment work
on it and working the ore pro-

Mr.. Chase Is an enterprising man, who
