A Couple of Ola Brass Pieces

Maj. C. H. Ross, of the G. A. r. oi
Milwaukee, received recently two small
cannon, which have been playing their
part in the worlds events for nearly four
centuries. They are brass pieces, and
were cast in Holland in the year 1914.
To gaze upon this miniature artillery is
to carry one back to the times of Charles
V. and his ambitious schemes. which left
his heir one of the mightiest empires of
this world. The cannon in question are
twenty five inches in length and five in.
ches in diameter at the breach. The
bore is one and three. fourth inches. The
handles, for convenience in mounting,
which are prominent features in early
artillery, are shown in the pieces. just
forward of the breech is plate bearing
the date of casting, while few inches
from the muzzle is raised profile head
of sixteenth-century nobleman. prob
ably the governor of the district in which
the guns were made.
They are both mounted on old-fash.
ioned, but miniature, ships carriages,
about fourteen inches in height. AS the
guns are plainly meant for field service,
with none of the peculiar characteristics
of carronades, it is probable that the car
riages are of different and much later
era than the guns. In fact, as now
mounted, they bear the appearance of
having been used on board yacht as
signal guns. What their earlier history
is must ever remain enveloped in mys.
terry Chicago Times.

The Now Currency.

The national banks are retiring their
currency quite rapidly, and it is forum
ate that the siloer circulating notes, in
small denominations, are now being is
sued.
The elements of confidence in this cur
rency are such that it will be as uniform
| in par value, and as current everywhere,
as are the greenbacks and national bank
notes.
On the back of every silcer note is
plainly printed this legalized condition:
"Ihis certificate is receivable for Gus.
toms, tares and all public dues, and
sohen so receiccd may be reiSsued. p"
They can be legally counted in nation
al bank reserves, and no national bank
can be member of any clearinghouse
that refuses these notes in settlement of
debtor balances.
These conditions are such that the
siluer notes will sbe as popular and as
universally current1as greenbacks.
The financial bearings of this issue OF
paper currency are:
First-1t more than neutralizes the ef-
feet of the surrendering of national bank
notes.
Second-It takes from the Treasury
its ownership of some ninety millions of
silver dollars, and substitutes an equal
amount of gold and greenbacks, thus
warding off any danger of dropping from
the gold to the silver standard.
Third-It enables the Treasury to call
in all the 3 per cent. bonds without the
risk of having to offer silver dollars in
payment.
Fourth-It will work a gradual and
desirable expansion.
Fifth-It obliterates the necessity of
handling any metallic currency except
small change.

The Buena Vista Bridge.
Los ANGELEL. Cal. Oct. s. 1856.

Los ANGELEL, Cal., Oct. 8, looo.
EDITOR HERALD:-Will you kindly
publish the following in the columns OF
your esteemed paper:
Several parties belonging to the First
Ward, who are particularly interested
in Chavez street, are opposing the con-
struction of the Buena Vista street
bridge, and favor the building of a
bridge on the line of Chavez street.
They claim that the Chavez street roate
is the most practicable and convenient,
for the residents east of the city, on
account Of the connection it has with
the city through Main street.
We should be lenient and excuse the
supporter of the Chavez street bridge,
for It is nothing but natural that each
person should look out for his own par.
ticular interest; but looking at the mat.
ter from another standpoint, as the
directors of the community should, the
question is, which Of the proposed routes
will be of the greatest public benefit?
The maps of the city and county dem
onstrate clearly the location of the pop.
|ulous districts surrounding our city and
| the routes thereto. Examine these, and
it is readily seen that the proposed Cha
vez street bridge will only benefit Q
a small portion of the eastern part oi
the city, because the Downey avenue
bridge is the most central, and is mostly
travelled by those living in that part o.
town.
| A bridge on the line of Buena Vista
street besides being useful to part Of
the town east of the river, will also b,
of great benefit to the travel to ant
from Arroyo Seco, Hunter, Highland
View tract, Highland Park tract
Highland Park addition, Verdugo, SaI
Fernando, Tujunga, Garvanzo ant
Pasadena. The Buena Vista stree
route is now the most travelled, the mos
direct to the center of the city and to tn
Court House which is to be built, ant
has the advantage of not crossing th
railroad, which on Chavez street is il
constant motion. The right of putting
on cars is granted, and in my opinion
will fill all requirements in that direc
ton.
In point Of economy, the expense o
building the bridge will be the same il
the one place as in the other, but if it i
to be built, let it be built at the mos
useful. A. +. Y.

Ira q. II Oitts

The Office of Superintendent of Public
instruction is one that, little less than
the Justices of the Supreme Court,
should be above and beyond the mere
exigencies of partisan politics. 1t should
be filled by a man not only thoroughly
versed in the art of education and famil-
lar with its routine and necessities, but
one also in complete sympathy with the
aims of the public school system and
who will bring earnest, honest and in
telligent endeavor to the promotion of
its efficiency.
There are reasons independently of
party politics why Ira G. Hoitt. who is
the Republican nominee for the office of
State Superintendent should not be elect.
ed. These reasons are such as will ap-
peal to the common sense ef every man
in sympathy with our public schools, no
matter what may be his political beliefs.
Mr.. Hoitt was, up to the time of his
election as a School Director of this city,
an employe of the book publishing firm
of Bancroft & Co. In this there is no
discredit. But Bancroft & Co., are in.
terested in the school textbook question.
When the bill providing for the printing
and distribution of textbooks by the
State at merely nominal cost was be-
fore the Legislature, Ira G. Hoitt used
his utmost to defeat it. He personally
importuned members of the Legislature
to vote against it, or kill it in some other
way. At the time he was in the employ
of a book publishing firm largely inter-
ested in the defeat of the measure.
Fred. M. Campbell, present School Su-
perintendent OF Oakland, who placed
Hoitt in nomination at Los Angeles,
used every expedient in his power to
defeat the bill. He and Hoitt 'rked
together for that purpose. Nevertheless
the bill pa sed. Now the textbooks
printed by the State are nearly ready for
distribution. They will cost the people
only from one-thlrd to one.half the
amount now paid for books of the same
class. They afford great saving to
poor people desirous of giving their
children all the educational advantages
the State affords. If the system under
which they are printed is successful we
shall be done with book monopolies, and
rings and combinations in school boards
which rebound to the benefit of some
publisher at the expense of the public,
Now the test of the system will be
made during the administration of the
next State School Superintendent. Sue
cess in a great measure will depend upor
his friendship and zeal for the new books
A lukewarm friend may cripple the sys
tem and secret foe may have i. in his
power to destroy it or render it so bur
densome and annoying as to cause its
abolishment. The State has incurred
something like $3.50, 900 expense in per
fecting this system. Ii it is destroyed
now there will be this great loss to the
working people OF the boon OF cheaI
school books.-S. F. Examiner.
