THE Los Angeles Tribune says the at
tempt to develop an interest in southern
California "was made in the Los Angeles
newspapers five years ago this month, and
for three years it was a very discouraging
undertaking; but the opening of the fourth
year brought forth results that were never
even dreamed of. And since that time
Los Angeles has more than doubled in
population, and is now increasing at the
rate of several thousand a month. The
Tribune wishes its northern friends success,
and it viii surely be theirs if they have
the proper staying qualities" There is
probably in that paragraph the secret of
the whole matter 1t is the staying
quality" that insures success.

The awarding of the railroad prize of
$3.50 was the last thing that engaged the
attention of the Board of Directors of the
fair. This was no easy task, as there
were many meritorious competitors. They
finally gave it to Mrs. Mary Karr, of Marys-
vile.
The door receipts for the fair was
81 ,036 10, which is large, considering the
small admission fee and the large number
of strangers and producers who were adj
mitted without charge.
An excursion train en- route from the
East to Los Angeles, stopped over in this
city yesterday for several hours, and the
passengers by it visited the exhibition hall
Much of the fruit was packed for shipment,
but they saw sufficient to excite their ad-
miration and wonder.

taken away will be delivered to-day.

He spoke briefly of the silver ques
tion and the Chinese question, display

jects.
He then paid his respects to his op.
ponent, General Vandever, of whom he
spoke gracefully and without animosity,
as of worthy man, but not one fitted
by, reason of his age to represent the peo.
pie of this district at Washington as
they need to be represented. 'It is the
actual wants of the living present." he
said, with which we have to DEAL"
He spoke earnestly of the claims of
Washington Bartlett as an aspirant to
the Gubernatorial chair; and of his op.
ponent as dissembler and trickster,
unworthy of the suffrages of the peo-
pie.
His emphatic endorsement Of the pub
lie schools left no loophole for attacks
in that direction, and his views on ripar.
ian rights were identical with those ad-
vanced by the Hon. Geo. Steele, the Re.
publican candidate for State Senator, al
the Republican rally a few days ago.
1t seems that on this point the thinking
people of Southern California are prac.
tically unanimous.
Mr.. Lynch was followed by w. r.
Jacobs, of Tulare, young man of ora.
torical proclivities, who kept the audi.
ence awake to the end of his address.
Much of the ground gone over by this
speaker was the same as that traversed
by his predecessor. He began by saying
that he had been warned that Santa
Barbara was cold place for Democrat.
The city had been shamefully misrepre.
sented He followed up this statement
with quantity of the "taffy so dear
to the ears of the Barbarehos. He spoke
of the Chinese question, the silver ques.
tion, the public schools, the new idea Of
school books at cost, of Mr.. Bartlett, of
General Vandever, of the right of for
eigners to places ON the ticket, and
wound up with tribute to individual

Spare the Young Horse.

We have all noticed how tender the
meat and joints of a young but full.
grown chicken are when cooked, and
how tough the same parts OF a chicken
no larger but year or two older. The
joints of one drop apart on slight fore
ing; those of the other can hardly be
cut apart. A young horse may be full
grown and as swift and strong as an
older one, but his muscles and his liga-
nents that hold the bones together at
the joints are like those of young
chicken. They cannot stand much con.
tinuous strain upon them without in.
jury. Many young horses are injured
by overwork, and their owners never
know the cause of the injury. A horse
put to work at three years old is full Of
spirit and nearly as strong as one OF
ripper age. If allowed to do as much as
he is willing and able to do he will be
much less willing and able at four years
old. This is well-known fact. and is
usually referred to teething. The ex.
PLANTATION is that he was overworked
the year before. He has lost his spirit,
and his ankle Joints are little too large
on all his legs. The ligaments, lacking
6tIouRbn " UCak tAO otAoth Pus AROu
them, become thicker to meet the de-
mand. The joints are little cheese
shaped. If these warnings are unnotic-
ed or disregarded, and the horse is still
kept at steady work before he is matur.
ed. not much more evidence may be
manifested of injury, but when he should
be in the prime of his capacity he has
been already ''used up" to use com.
mon expression. and begins to fail. II
he is not an animal of exceptionally good
constitution, he will show at 6 or Z
what abuse did for him at 3 or a. In
buying horse of whose antecedents we
are ignorant, it is better to buy sound
one at 8 or years OF age, than or Z.
At about that age his inirmities begin,
the results of overwork during the ten
der period of life. If he is sound at 9
years old, he has probably not been in.
jured during colthood and will remain
sound. A colt may be used very gently
all the time after its second year, with
out harm, but there is danger of overdo-
ing.-[Dr. Ellwood Harvey.

and their relatives in tho matter of mar

Rose Culture.

In preparing the beds for Tea Roses,
make the soil rich and deep; we'll de-
composed manure spaded in thoroughly
is the best suited to their needs. And
nothing so promotes growth and plsnti-
full blooming as an occasional (say week.
ly) watering with liquid manure. Slugs
are the serpents that destroy the Eden
of Rose gardening. 1t is necessary to be
on the alert in june to dispose OF them,
for if these pests once get the start,
the roses are doomed, and are un-
slightly objects the remainder of the sea-
son. Nothing seems to serve the pur-
nose of determination so well as white
hellebore. 1t may be applied as powder
by placing dredging box and sprink-
ling the Roses thoroughly, early in the
morning when the dew is on the leaves;
or later, by sprinkling the foliage first
with water. If preferred, the powder
NAV be dissolved in water and applied
with sprinkling pot. But the surest
wav both far Roses aud Currants is to
use dry powder freely; and three appii-
cations at intervals Of few days is nsu.
ally all that is necessary. Whale oil
soap is also highly recommended as an
insect exterminator, but l have not
found it SO certain. The only way to
get rid Of Rose bugs is by hand picking.
Roses are heavy feeders and exhaust
the soil, and consequently should have
beds to themselves without low'growing
plants between, and should be mulched
during July and August. There is such
a bewildering list of new roses that one
hardly knows which to choose, and can
enlv tell which is best worth culture by
tying. Among the Tea roses, the bun
set, the American Beauty and VIM

Congregational Candidates.

There can be nothing said against the
character of General Vandever, the Re-
publican candidate for Congress in this
district, that we know of. He is good,
honest, slmple.minded old gentleman Of
the fogy school and of good morals, but
feeble mind. He knows nothing of the
needs of the district in comparison with
his opponent; is practically unacquaint-
ed with its material, industry and pro-
gressive necessities. If he were, he has
neither the vigor nor the ability to SUBJ
serve those interests in Congress where
it requires intense, combative struggle
for Congressman to obtain anything
like justice for far-away constituency.
Even Markham with all his persistent
push, would have failed, nay had failed
to secure the creation of U. S. judicial
district for this section, had not Senator
Hearst come to the rescue, with the iron
determination which has made him such
a success in his every undertaking. 1t
was only indeed as personal favor to
Hearst, that Senator Edmunds in whose
hands rested the fate of the bill, con-
senting to report favorably upon its
passage. How then could good, old,
superanuated soul like Vandever hope
to accomplish anything 10 such a strug-
gle? He would do his best, no doubt,
but uselessly. On the other hand, we
have in Mr.. Lynch, man of intense
determination and persistent purpose;
man thoroughly in touch with national
affairs; man 'as familiar with the dis
trict as with his alphabet; man who
would at once take q front rank among
his colleagues in influence and ability;
man with the fire, vigor and confidence
of the meridian of life; man with un.
tagging capacity for work; man used
to success, and ardently devoted to the
interests of his constituency; man who
has demonstrated what he can do, by
what he has done. Will any man, not
a narrow. political fanatic, prefer Mr..
vandever to Mr.. Lynch, incapability to
capability?-San Bernardino Courier.

Political Speaking.

The Democratic Rally at the Iheatre
last night brought o1t the largest and
most enthusiastic audience so far seen
in this campaign. And all was so quiet
and orderly that it was pleasure to
listen to the speakers, the Hon. j. d..
Lynch, our candidate for Congress, and
Mr.. Jacobs, of Tulare, who made quite
a hit with his oratory.
The meeting was called tc order by A..
DAVIS, as Secretary of the Democratic
Central Committee. Col. w. A. Hayne
presided as Chairman, and the following
gentlemen filled the long semi.clrcle OF
seats upon the stage as Vice. Presidents:

He then went on in vivid and convin.

prosperity which has dawned upon
Southern California. and congratulated
Santa Barbara upon the new impulses
given to trade.
He said he sought the suffrages OF the
people of tremendous territorial area,
the fourteen counties of Southern Cali
fornia, and went on to speak OF the re-
sources of this vast section, "oil from

Mr.. Lynch spoke warmly OF the ad'
ministration of Grover Cleveland; OF the
extinguishment of the national debt; OF

Judge j. f. sullivan.

The action OF the Democratic con-
vention in nominating j. F. Sullivan for
Judge of the Supreme Court is ap-
proved all over the State and by voters
Of both parties. His election is as eer-
tain as that the sun will rise on polling
day. His majority will be something
phenomenal, and this, although Ko-
waldsky, Barnes and the rest are still
spending the dead mans money in the
same old. fashioned way. But this time
they are face to face with court from
which there is no appeal. Public opin-
ion, that long since reached conclu.
sion, is at last able to pronounce its
Judgment. 1t will be handed down on
the first Tuesday in November, and it
might we'll strike terror into the sur
vivors, and even alright the dead from
the grave. 1t will be the peoples un.
appealable decision that Judge Sulli-
vnn's decision in the Sharon case was
lust and proper. 1t will be more; it
will be an intimation that the people
keenly observe what is going on, and
that when the proper time arrives, they
will know how to honor and reward all
that distinguishes Sullivan Murphy
or Toohy. Judge Sullivan's
promotion to the highest appellant court
as recognition and approval Of his
decision in the Sharon case must be Pc
culiarly satisfactory to everybody who
early insisted that the plaintiff had q
case that demanded fair hearing.
That was all that was at FIRST claimed by
those who promoted her cause, and
even that would have been denied her
if hired assassins, bribed grand-jurors
and bought witnesses had not enooun-
tered Judge who could neither be
bought nor intimidated. Judge Sulli-
vans especially triumphant election

sion out Of which to make name,
