4 LABOR convention for the Pacific coast
is to be held in San Francisco the last day
of the present month. 1t will accomplish
good if it is controlled by dignity, con-
servatism, breath of view and cool deliber-
alton. For the calm and reasoning ex-
change of views by men in deliberative
assemblies is always beneficial; the attri-
ton of ideas evolves wisdom, but if the
cranks are admitted to the convention, if
there is not enough moral backbone and
determined sincerity for the cause of the
good of the laboring classes to sit down
upon the steaming socialist, and the long
haired communist, and the vaporing politi-
cal demagogue, itwere better for the work
ing men Of the coast that the convention
had never been called.

TIE idea that the people of this coun-
try viii take kindly 10 the proposition to
accept the Kingdom of Hawaii as a State
of the Union is absurd. The rumor that
it is to be made sounds like a hoax. We
have no need for more territory. When
we do acquire it, we want a very different
class Of people than the natives of the
Sandwich Islands as population for the
country annexed. The cost of governing
the islands would be greater than any pos
sible new benefit we could derive from
them. They are quite as useful to us as.
they are. In the light we now have of
the rumored scheme, we can see nothing
favorable in it. It might become a more
important question If some other power
should endeavor to take possession of the
islands, since as mid-ocean stations, and
possible naval supply depots and stoppage
points, it is undesirable that any foreign
power should possess them, and altogether
desirable that they shall remain an in
dependent estate. Above all, before we
can consider the question at all, we must
overhaul our reckoning as to treaty obliga-
tions with other countries relative to the
continued INDEPENDENCE of the islands of
the Kingdom as distinct State.

AT one time we believed here in Cali
fornia that we were exempt from grass
hopper invasions and the terrors of the
cyclone, while our Eastern friends felici-
tated themselves upon their exemption
from earthquakes, such as afflicted US
occasionally. But latterly there have been
enforced notifications of these views.
Earthquakes have several times, within
the past four or five years, shaken up the
people Of the Atlantic coast, while the
locust and grasshopper plaques of the East
have crossed the plains and paid us severe
visitations, and now it is recorded that a
genuine cyclone of the West has found its
way out here, and given us warning of the
terrible force of these atmospheric con-
WILSON'S. But we still have left our
glorious climate" Let us rejoice.

No MAN of the world to-day can so
sincerely pray for deIiverance from his
friends as Prince Alexander. He is not
very wise at best, and his political expert
ence is of the six-by-nine order. At pres
ent he is being bufeted between the
suspicious and intrigues of the Powers in
way to confuse and distract man OF
much larger caliber and greater force Of
character than this petty ruler, whose fate
depends wholly upon the within of those
who have nothing but contempt for him.

STRANGE SToRY.-The responsibility for
the annexed rests with the Santa Maria
Times
We visited Zaca Lake on Saturday last.
and while there a strange story was told us
by the man in charge OF Mr.. Smiths place.
He said that some time since an old Indi-
an visited the lake and told him that when
he was boy the Indians never bathed in
the lake, because in the center there was a
whirlpool that took everything down that
came within its reach When one con-
siders the sudden rise of Zaca creek at the
foot of the mountain the old Indian story
has q plausible look.

BEES VS.. GRAPEs.-The San Bernardino
Times says;
The case of Randall and Moves against
Gustave Bonn, which was decided in JUS
tice Knox's Court yesterday, is probably
without parallel in the history of law
suits. The plaintiffs are raisin-growers in
the Highlands, seven miles northeast of
this city. Adjoining their vineyard the de-
PENDANT has bee ranch. The action was
for damages which the plaintiffs claimed to
have suffered in consequence of the fre-
quent visitations of defendants bees to
their grapes. In support of their claim
they introduced numerous witnesses who
swore that they had, in various instances.
witnessed with their open eyes. the per-
foration and destruction of plaintiffs
grapes when alighted upon by the busy,
busy bee of the defendant. The latter. in
turn, introduced evidence to show the i'm
possibility of this condition of things. He
proved by a score of witnesses that the bill
of the insect is tubular and not pointed,
and can, therefore, be used only as extractor
of sweets, not as a borer after them. The
evidence of the eyewitness of the plain
tiffs, however, had the weight with the
jury, and they accordingly returned a YER
dict against the defendant for $75 and costs
of suit, which amount to over $50. A STAY
of proceedings has been asked for and the
case will probably be appealed 1t is one
of interest to bee ranchers and Eaisin-grow-
ers, and is attracting much attention.

ARTIFICIAL PETRoLEUM.-The action of
superheated steam on molten cast iron,
rich in carbon, has yielded product iden-
teal with the hydrocarbons forming crude
petroleum. Berthelot thinks this discovery
offers possible explanation OF the origin
of petroleum, viz: Sea water penetrates
assures to depths where the earth is very
hot, forming superheated steam, which,
coming in contact with melted iron
rich in carbon is decomposed into
hydrogen and oxygen. The oxygen
unites with the iron to forms oxide
of iron, and the hydrogen combines with
the carbon, the resulting hydrocarbons
passing in a gaseous state 10 rock strait
suitable for their condensation as oil.

A BOTANICAL ANoNALY-So universal
is the cylindrical form of the stems of
grasses that reports concerning square
stemmed bamboo of China and Japan have
been generally discredited. Very recently,
however, such plant has been proven to
exist, and specimens of the stems have
been secured by few English botauists,
some OF them being now in the Kew Muse
I'm. Unlike other bamboos of its locality
thesquare bamboo, it appears, sprouts in the
autumn, and attains its full hight of ten to
fourteen feet the following spring. When
young the stems are quite round, their
most perfectly square shape being attained
at the age of several years. The Chinese
take great interest in the plant, and at
tribute the form of its stem to supernatural
powers. The species have been named by
Fenzi Bdinbltsd q,tadrang,.ldriS.

made to give the President time to prepare

would be impossible to restrict public men

them specify in advance their business
with him.
