right that they should pay for bless
ing so priceless. But they pay for
more than the climate. They pay for
the schools, churches and superior
society which these Southern Califor-
mia colonial experiments guarantee
them. 1t must be said that they seem
quite willing to pay for them, and
they are as much pleased with their
bargains as child with new toy
and the longer they stay here the bet
ter they are satisfied. 1t must be
borne in mind that in buying a poet
zeal home in San Diego or San Der
nardino counties the experience OF
the purchaser is very different from
that OF those who buy country resi-
dences in the East. There when a
wealthy man buys a rural abode his
friends indulge in gentle humor at his
expense. They know that it means
large outlays and absolutely no mon
eyed return. Here he has his elegant
residence, surrounded by his own
vine and fig tree, with an orange Or
chard in the perspective, and makes
large income withal Small wonder
that the Fastener warns up to such
a prospect. The most notable circum-
stance about this Eastern settlement
in Los Angeles and San Diego coun-
ties is that it impresses the observer
so favorably that colonies are now all
the rage. There are in Los Angeles
to-day at least half dozen men who
are authorized to treat for large prop
critics with the view of bringing well
equipped colonies here. The oppor-
tunities for making such experiments
are not as abundant as they were,
and they cannot he had at such low
figures. But for years to come there
will be no difficulty in supplying new
corners with what they want Mean
while Crescenta Canada, Monte Vista,
Monrovia, Lamanda, the Los Feliz
Rancho, and dozen other spots, to
which must now be added the San
Fernando valley, are filling up with
settlers at a rapid rate.

WASHINGTON, December l5.-The an
nual convention of the National Guard
Association of the United States met
here this afternoon. The Association
consists of five delegates from the mill
tia OF eaeh State. Eighteen States were
represented at the meeting. President
George w. Wingate, of New York,
called the meeting to order. In his
opening address he said that the objects
OF the association had been thwarted in
part by objections that it was the inten-
lion to deprive the States of their uu
thority over the militia, and then on the
other hand that there was a desire to take
the money of the Treasury of the general
government for purely State organiza-
tions, without permitting proper SUI
pervision by the War Department; but
the greatest obstacle that they had TO
encounter was the apathy among the
people. the militia and in Congress. In
regard to the entire question which the
association had at heart, he thought now
that the situation was more favorable
and that the bills before Congress would
receive favorable consideration. Gen.
Taylor, of Colorado, was elected Re.
cordipg Secretary Col. Charles +.
Bridge, of New York, was elected Cor
responding Secretary.

TINS question OF taking from the
Committee OF Appropriations Of the
House of Representatives n portion oil
the powers which that body formerly
possessed seems ohave created more
interest at Washington and in the
press of the country than any subject
of a purely non-partizan character
which has been mooted Tor years.
Mr.. Randall contends, and with II
great show OF reason, that its practical
results have been, as far ms it has
been tried extravaganza and increased
expenditures. The River and flarbor
and several other Committees have
been allowed OF late years to make up
their own appropriations, and since
the change their appropriations have
been largely increased, MIR. Randall
naturally does not desire to see the
committee of which he is Chairman
shorn of its most important functions
but in fighting IA change in the rules
he is undoubtedly influenced by high
public motives. The final decision
will be made by vote in the House
and members will divide upon the
question to great extent according tc
personal preferences. Speaker Car
isle il opposed to making the change

DAY DISPATCHES.

ATLANTA, Ca, December l5.-One of
the most terrible railroad accidents ever
known in Georgia occurred at midnight
fifteen miles from this city, on the Geor-
gia Pacific Railroad. The East Tennes-
see and Georgia Pacific roads use the
same tracks to Austrell, and last night
the Georgia Pacific mixed train, with
coach and one sleeper, stopped at a tank
for water, The coach and sleeper were
on a trestle thirty feet high. The East
Tennessee passenger train, going at
speed of thirty miles an hour, struck the
sleeper and went nearly half way through
it. The wreck was terrible. The fire
man sprang overheard and received but
slight injuries. The engineer held to
the throttle aud was unhurt. The fol-
lowing persons on the Georgia Pacific
train were killed; Bointn Peton, OF
Charlottesville, Va Nathan Hanley, OF
Admission, Ala; Jacob and Mary Banks,
oil Jonesboro, Ca; Il. Wright aud wife
and two children, ofJonesboro,a wealthy
Texan, of Aberdeen, Texas, and others
Of East Point, ia. The two children
who are dead are unknown. The follow
ing were fatally injured. Mrs. Eliza
Brown, residence unknown, who was in
company with Pierce, and about ten
others more or less seriously injured

mia Southern are about to build a

cral different routes may meet at a
common point in order that passen-
gers and freights may he transhipped

California will be located at Los An

THERE is just now very strong
colonial movement towards Los An
peles. Considering the great success
which has attended all these enter
prises this is not surprising. There
has been no exception to the uniform
pleasant outcome which has charac-
terized them all. Anaheim may be
called the parent colony, and it is rs
hard to find mortgage there rs 1t is
to find a huckleberry in mid-winter
on an Eastern hillside. Riverside
was the next great colonial enter
prise, and the development OF wealth
there has been something ont of the
common. Everybody has made
money and is satisfied Pasadena
follows next after Riverside, and it
would be hard to find more remu-
nerative experiment on the lace of
the earth than is disclosed in this
lovely valley. 1t is true that most OF
this wealth has resulted from the en-
hancement in the values OF lands, but
the man who has paid $50 Tor an acre
Of ground il not going to cut up
rough because somebody is willing to
pay him $40, 900 for il lie would as
liefmake money one way as in another.
II is sometimes sneeringly said that
the people who come here from the
East are made TO pay high iorclimate.
This is measurably true and it is

THERE has been an extraordinary
number of railway magnates in
Southern california of late. In Los
Angeles one runs across gentlemen
who have big financial standing in
New York, Boston and the other
Eastern cities nearly every day. In
connection with the rumor that the
Atchison, Topeka d Santa Fe people
are abont TO buy Jim Fairs South
Pacific Coast railway, it looks very
much as ii coast road to san Fran
cisco might be one OF the eventuali-
ties of the near future. The people
of Ventura, Santa Barbara and OF the
other coast counties may well be OF
good heart, as either the Southern
Pacific or some Eastern transconti-
mental railway is certain to give them
n road at an early day. The South
ern Pacific will surely build from
Newhall north and from Soledad
south, but the new road may move
more promptly. The South Pacific
Coast Company has magnificent
water front at Oakland, together with
a splendid wharf and all other facili-
ties and road bed which reaches rs
far south as Santa Cruz. 1t was
until lately under the control OF the
bonanza people, but was turned over
TO James & Fair in settlement of his
interest in the Nevada bank. No re-
gion of the American continent seems
likely to be favored with So many
railways as California They were
late in coming bnt IN the end, our
people have had the benefit OF the
scripturai aphorism that the first
shall be- last and the last first.
Many a State which had railways
forty years ago have not half the
mileage which California can already
boast
