MANY Of our prominent citizens
have addressed a memorial to our
delegation in Congress, TO give their
support TO the bill granting a pension
to the surviving officers and privates
Of the United States army, who
served in the war with Mexico in
ls46-7-s, and particularly emphasize
ing the claims Of Col. J. d. Steven
son. No more worthy object could
commend itself to our repI esenta-
tives. Through the valor and sacri-
fees of the heroes OF the Mexican
war, we possess our grand Pacific
empire to-day, and in their old age
and days Of helplessness, the Govern
ment should not desert them, but
should support and recompense them,
as far as recompense is now possible.
As TO Col. J. ID. Stevenson, now near
ly 80 years old, it was largely due TO
his efforts while in command OF the
oOutucin Ebliltuiy Rcpaiihichs ~
ls47, with headquarters at Los Ange-
les, that Southern California was
saved to the United States
1t was during his administra-
ton that formidable uprising
Of the native Californians took place,
which he with great ability was
chiefly instrumental in suppressing.
He was in command Of the regiment
Of New York Volunteers, which did
service on this coast during the Mex
lean war, and made with biH COM
mand bright record throughout.
We commend the memorial TO the
favorable attention of our representa-
tives as matter which should be pro-
vided for at once. Even tardy justice
is better than never-ending neglect.

Ex- United States Senator Hender-
son, lately in Los Angeles, had a
great deal to say about the "homo-
geneity" Of the Republican party,
aud the claimed dissensions and an
tagonisms in the Democratic party.
The silver coinage question is about
the only measure OF great national
importance that has come before Con-
gress the present session. 1t does
not appear that the Republicans are
more Homogeneous" on that prop
osition than Democrats. Many of
their leading men, like Edmunds and
Morrill,, are found on one side, while
others, like Stanford, Jones and Ev-
arts, are flercely opposed, and are
seen fighting ardently side by side
with such Democratic champions as
Beck and Pugh. And it is likely that
on other prominent matters that will
come up the Republican party will
find itself in the same plight. There
are many able and honest men in the
Republican party. IL was once the
case that the only things required to
be good Republican were hatred of
Democrats and desire to Cypress
the people OF the Southern States.
But the clear-headed, honest and
really patriotic members OF the Re
publican party are beginning to see
that il Is not the proper thing to do to
stick together in all things, regard
less Of right and justice, simply be-
cause they call themselves Republi-
cans. Consequently they assert their
individuality and vote AZ they deem
right, regardless Of what their party
associates may do. They are not as
Homogeneous" as Republican states
men used to be, when all individual
conscience and expression Of opinion
were stfled, and all who hated
Democrats and favored oppress-
ing the Southern people, were
compelled to vote as solid mass or
were driven out Of the party by the
lash Of the party whip, and de-
nounced as traitors and rebel sympa-
thizers. The first decided difference
in the Republican party, which al
most amounted to split, was be-
tween the Stalwarts and Half-breeds
in 1880, which eliminated in the de-
feat OF General Grant for the nomi-
nation for the Presidency, the nomi-
nation of General Garfield, the resig-
nation Of Conkling from the United
States Senate and all the sensational
episodes thereafter, and the wounds
OF which differences were not healed
in 1884, and are still open. Besides
this, the Mugwumps are still alive,
and claim party recognition, with
threats Of vengeance in case of re-
fusal, while in New York and some
other States enough Republicans will
hereafter vote the Prohibition ticket
to always defeat Republican Ma
tional ticket, even il the Democrats
did not have the majority which they
possess. The idea OF Republican
@'homogeneity" is myth. The ma
iority Of the people Of this nation are
Democrats, and, in addition, the Re-
publican party is house hopelessly

LONDON. FEBRUARY 3.-The Mark Lane
Express in its review OF the British grain
trade for the past week, says; The
early sown crops are hoalthy. Trade in
wheat is unimproved. The sale Of Eng
fish wheat during the week was $4,000
quarters at Dos I'd, against 72,77S quar-
tiers at 34s Cd during the corresponding
period last year. There has been lib
eral supply of flour. Prices tend down
ward. The foreign wheat trade is no
tirmer. The political situation has had
disquieting effect. The latest phases
of the silver question in India and
America are not conducive to confidence
here. Eight cargoes of wheat have ar
rived, and none sold or withdrawn.
Eight remained, including four of Cali
fornia and two Of Oregon. Trade for.
ward is stagnant ON account of the alb.
sence of confidence in any department.
No new feature in to.day's market. The
inquiry for wheat is limited. Flour is
very dull.

How the human system ever recovers
from the bad effects OF the naseaus medi-
cines often literally poured into it for
the suppositive relief Of dyspepsia, liver
complaint, constipation, rheumatism and
other ailments, is mystery. The mis-
chief doae by bad medicines Is scarcely
less than that caused by disease. If
they who are weak, bilious, dyspeptic,
constipated or rheumatic, would oftener
be guided by the experience of invalids
who have thoroughly tested Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, they would in every
instance obtain the speediest aid deriv-
able from rational medication. This
medicine is q searching and at the same
time thoroughly safe remedy, derived
from vegetable sources, and possessing
in consequence of its basis of pure spir.
its, properties as medicinal stimulant

The Proportionate Growth OF
Crime tn the United states.


Crime in the United states.
The increase OF crime in the United
States is alarming. There are many
problems which our present civiliza-
tion presents for solution, that are
new In their nature, and in dealing
with which there must necessarily be
much that is simply experimental.
1t is true that there has always been
crime committed among men. But
the kinds OF crime, their causes and
their consequences, and their varied
peculiarities, at present exhibit n
different aspect hom that OF any
other age. Railroads, telegraphs,
and the thousand and one diff
ferent inventions and conveniences
introduced into the life of the people
by this century, have undoubtedly
augmented the aggregate OF ihtelli-
gence. as well as ministered to the
Injuries and pleasures Of existence.
But along with all this there has been
an under-current, apparently moving
in the opposite direction. 1t would
certainly not be just to ascribe
demoralizing moral influence to the
grand material accomplishments of
this age; yet the fact remains, in
spite of all the progress, mental,
moral and material, that crime for
years Mas been increasing in the
United States, much faster, relatively,
than population. And it is not un-
likely that statistics would show u
similar condition in other civilized
countries. Many theories have been
advanced TO account for this, but
none seem sufficient, except the
general idea that modern civili-
zation tends to produce extremes
of thought and action, and
that people are now, generally speak
5ng, either better or worse than they
were In the days gone by, when the
influences Of their environ ment were
not so heavy and controlling, and
when communication between differ
ent portions OF the land was not so
easy as now. Nowadays good ideas
and examples fly over the world with
the rapidity of thought on the electric
wire. The same thing is true OF bad
ideas and examples. Neither are
confined las formerly to "a limited local
area. And as both classes grow they
intensity. But, strange TO say, statis-
tics do not show that the efficacy of
the law is increasing in the same
ratio as other accomplishments of our
modern civilization. II NAV seem
startling, but the figures establish
that lynch law" is on the increase
in this country. The statistics for
1885 are not ascertainable, but in 1884
in the Uniled States, there were 1917
murders, and in punishment of these
there were only 1903 legal executions.
while there were 2l0 "lynchings."
This is an exhibit that will amaze
many people. The number of muir
ders for 1884 were far in excess Of
the number for 1888, and the same is
true for the same year Of other crimes.
The same rule holds good with refer
ence to the crimes of 1888 over those
committed in 1882, and still further
back. The matter of crime goes to
the Reorganization of civilized soci-
ETY., and is of practical interest to all.
Why II should relatively increase

Can cities Levy a Tax on

ST.. LOUIS, February 3.--The case Of
the Western Union Telegraph Company
for failure to pay tax on Its poles, which
has been pending before the Court Of
Criminal Correction for nearly year,
was decided yesterday by Judge Noonan.
The city ordinance provides that the
city can levy tax of five dollars per
pole ON all poles'erected within its limits
by telegraph companies. When the Col
lector attempted to collect this tax the
company refused payment and prose-
cution was at once initiated by
the city in the District Court.
When the matter came up
before Judge Cady, he discharged the
defendants on the ground that the
ordinance was unconstitutional, and
therefore invalid. Tho city appealed
from this decision to the Court Of Grim.

yesterday affirmed Judge Cady's deeis-

Ell PAso. Texas, February 3.-The
report of the commanding officer of the
Mexicans who attacked Crawford's COM
mand has been published in the Estado
de chihuahua newspaper, which reached
here to-day. 1t states that ON the l1th
instant the Mexicans combatted great
number OF tame and wild Indians. prob
ably over two hundred, led by foreign
United States) officers and over twenty
soldiers. Fonr Mexicans are reported
killed and four wounded. The report
also states, sthey displayed not sign
of legality, as was evineed as much by
their stately as by the animals which
they had, and which l hold to prove
that they were stolen. The report is
dated from Dolores mining camp, Janu-
uary Goth and signed Santa Anna Perez.
Ii is believed that the animals referred
to in the report are those captured from
the Indians, which the latter had prob
ably stolen.
