splendid boy, Just one week old. The
outfit of the infant has Just arrived in

AN encouraging and impressive lea
ture of the splendid exhibits which
have been made by the press OF San
Francisco in their superb New Years
numbers is the fact that the manuiac-
tured products of California last year
amounted to $4,000 900. In no re-
spect is the bright future OF Gallior-
mia more pleasantly outlined than III
this fact. In Los Angeles we should
take to heart the lesson OF the need
OF manufactures. Our increase IN
production has been tremendous
We ought to aim to make our progress
equally thorough in the manufacture
ing industries, which are the best
guarantees of large urban popula-
ton.

Gun esteemed contemporary, the
Times, in its issue OF Sunday, begs the
question as to the printing OF the
County Delinquent Tax List. 1t re-
fers TO the fact that, in the past, the
rates on advertising for County Print
ing have been larger than they are
now, and it tries to attach some re-
sponsibity to the HERALD for this state
Of things. While it is quite true that
the rates have been larger in the past
il is also true that they have been
fixed by the Board OF Supervisors after
a conference with the different pub
fishers of Los Angeles, of whom the
publisher of the Herald was but one.
We do not claim to have exercised
any overshadowing influence in bias
ing the judgment of the Board. We
were generally sandwiched in between
the Messrs. Yarnell and Caystile, who
at that time were connected with the
Times. What our esteemed eontem-
porary studiously ignores is the fact
that the printing OF the County Delin-
auent Tax List has always been ex-
cepted by the Board OF Supervisors
from the ordinary advertising which
was governed by the rates, whatsoever
they we're, which were fixed by the
Board. The advertising which was
covered by these rates during the time
in which we had Democratic Board
OF Supervisors, or at least within the
period of the eleven years residence
of the publisher OF the Herald in Los
Angeles, never amounted to over$200,
orat the outside, $500. The Delinquent
County Tax List was always given to
the lowest bidder, except last year,
when County Tax Collector Ham
mond most indefensibfyS handed it
over to the Times, giving neither the
HERALD nor Express a chance 10 bid
upon it. This freak OF Hammond's
cost the county great deal of money,
and there are people who are un-
charitable enough to assume that
gratitude to one OF the proprietors of
the Times, in certain bond matter,
Influenced the County Tax Collector
who, in affairs which concern the in
terests OF the taxpayers, ought to act
without fear, favor or affection. We
have not arraigned nor shall we ar
raign our contemporary for taking all
it can get for printing the Delinquent
Tax List or any other matter as long
as it stays within the limits OF its
published schedule OF rates. We
have strictly confined ourselves to ac-
complished and contemplated dere-
lietions OF duty ON the part of county
officials The pretence of having
been influenced by the necessity OF
making great haste, which was adj
vanced by Mr.. Hammond last year,
was rendered all the more absurd by
the fact, well known to all the
printers of Los Angeles, that the
facilities of the Herald for doinl
work OF the kind contemplated Were
then and are now twice those OF the
Times. Our contemporary can scarce
" throw up dust enough to obscure
the real merits OF this question. M
Republican Ring can blunt the popu
lar intelligence.

DAY DISPATCHES.

CINoINNATI, January "A daring and
unique robbery took place on Harrison
turnpike, Just outside the city limits, at
an early hour Sunday morning, the burg
lars being two boys, who were masked
and conducted themselves in regular
dime-novel style.
Theodore Wolfe lives in a small house
little apart from his neighbors. His
wife was alone in the house and asleep,
She was awakened by knock at the
front door accompanied by the summons,
"Opon this door. or we will break it
down; we are robbers. Then, while
the woman almost tainted with fright,
the threat was executed and the masked
marauders stood before her, "Where
ia your money and your silverwareg" de
handed one OF the robbers. The woman
detected the voice of boy attempting
to speak like man. She refused to
give up the valuables; one of the ruffians
threw her upon the floor and ehoked
her, while the other went through the
house, scattering everything right and
left, and shouldering and packing what.
ever struck his fancy, When the house
had been thoroughly rifed, the two
youths made good their escape, and have
not vet been arrested, nor is the identity
Of either OF them known to Mrs, Wolfe
When Mr.. Wolfe returned, scarcely hall
an hour after the robbery had been com
mitted, he found his wife nearly over
come with fear, and she has been dan
gerously i'll ever since.
