Conversation between a coal
dealer and a printer:
Printer.-I have bought a stove
that will burn wood, and | shall
buy no coal until the coal monOp-
oily has gone to pieces. / don't
propose to be robbed any longer.
Coal Dealer.-That's the only
way to break the monopoly that l
know of. | think the price of
anthracite is too high, but so long
as people will pay 81 we will prob
ably charge it, and we have
agreed to stand by each other.
BY the way, l want some printing
done. Tom & Jerry wanted to
charge me $40 for a few circulars.
Could you do it cheaper?
Printer.-NOt for the world.
We have a union, and Tom & Jerry
named tho union price. / have
agreed to stand to the union figure
in every case and to charge it as
long as men will pay it.

TmE firm stand taken by President
Cleveland against the attempted en-
croachments of the Senate has been
one of the happiest incidents OF
official public life which has been re-
corded for years past. tits high time
that the office OF President should be
restored to something OF the vigor
and power with which the trainers oil
the Constitution intended that 1t
should be endowed. The tenure oil
office bill is a very serious invasion oil
the Presidents prerogatives. 1t was
passed in the heat of the resentments
following the war, and was intended
largely as an expression Of the hostility
of Republican Congress to Andrew
Johnson. A great many OF the men
who sanctioned this unconstitutional
measure have changed their views
as to both its expediency and legality
We notice that even such an uncom-
promising Republican newspaper as
the San Francisco Chronicle advo-
Gates the repeal of this act. Its re-
peal could be very readily carried in
the House and the chances are thata
few Of the Republican Senator'S would
vote for it, Immediately upon
Grants election to the Presidency he
recommended the repeal OF the Ten
are OF Office Act, but Congress treat
ed the suggestion very cavalierly.
There are in the Senate Of the United
States a few Republicans with wGom
the force of the Constitution OF the
United States has more weight than
mere party behest, and they might
be brought 10 vote for the repeal II
the President should show an earnest
desire TO have his office restored to
its full yigor and efficacy. His re-
cent victory over the Senate in the
controversy as 10 whether or no he
should give his reasons for removals
mas directed public attention to the
matter, and the present would be
highly propitious time for introducing
such ill.

We are much amused at the as
sumption in some of the up country
papers that because the Herald has
denounced the imposition sought 10
be practiced upon the public in the
matter OF an asserted Northern citrus
fruit belt we are therefore hostile TO
the northern and central counties.
There is nothing in this idea. All
Angelehos will see with pleasure the
growth of all portions of their impe-
rial commonwealth. He who seeks
TO create wrong impression as to the
resources Of his own section is its real
enemy. There are enough genuine
elements Of wealth all over California
to make it foolish as well as criminal
to advance claims which are not sus-
tanned by the facts. The Citrus Fair

the people there as fraud and when

WHEN Mr.. l.. J. Rose made his
first report as Viticultural Commits
sioner he estimated that there were
in the counties Of Los Angeles and
San Bernardino five thousand and
seven hundred odd acres planted in
these grapes have by no means in
grapes. To-day there are prob
ably thirty-hye thousand, or an
increase OF seven hundred per
cent. The facilities for crushing
creased in like ratio, with the natural
result Of making the wineries abso-
lutte masters Of the situation. As a
consequence, they placed the price OF
grapes at very low figure last year.
That this was the result OF combina-
ton and Of the power thus given to
the owners Of wineries was shown by
the fact that the stock OF wine is
quite small in California just now-so
small, indeed, that the dealers have
lately advanced the price OF all lines
of wine twenty per cent. The rem
edy for this inconvenience lies in the
vineyardists' own hands. They
should organize little corporations
and make their own wine. BY pur-
suing that method instead OF getting
ten cents gallon for his wine--which
is the equivalent of $40 ton for
grapes-he will get twenty, thirty
and even fifty cents gallon for it,
according to the care with which he
makes and handles it. In tbs Bor-
deau and other famous wine districts
of France the whole country is dotted
with small wineries, and in this way
the vineyardists secure all the profits
attending the raising of the wine
grape. The example ought to be
generally initiated in Los Angeles
county.

The movement against the Chinese
on the Pacific Coast has assumed a
phase which never characterized 1t
before. We have had anti-Chinese
riots in the past and some OF them
bloody ones, but we have never yet
seen the whole people OF extensive
sections rising up as one man with
the unalterable dissemination to ex-
pei the Monaghan. Such unity oil ac-
ton cannot fail to accomplish its pur-
pose. An atmosphere is being crea-
ted in which the Chinaman cannot
live. That he realizes this fact no
one who now strolls through China
town In San Francisco OF an evening
can doubt. Not human creature
can be seen In the streets there after
six O'Clock p. and the shops are
religiously closed at that hour. The
desolation OF death seems to brood
over the place. This il the more sin
gtiIar because, only lew weeks ago,
Cinnamon were swarming in myriads
in the upper portions Of such streets
us Sacramento. The thousands OF
Cinnamon arriving from the points in
the interior from which they have
been expelled bring with them an
addition TO the gloom which already
exists there. The little brown man"
at last realizes that he must go, and
extensive preparations are being
made for his return to the Flowery
Kingdom. Agreat many OF the Mon
golans will go East, and will thus
enable the people of the trans-Rocky
Mountain States TO gauge the draw
backs from which we have suffered
on the Pacific Coast. Wherever they
may go one thing is evident-we are
at last 10 be happily rid of them.

surdity of the whole scheme is real
lied by all who have any knowledge
of the requisites for the profitable
growth Of the citrus fruits. The raw
ings Of the Sacramento papers are too
ridiculous for serious notice, but their
febrile energy in creating imaginary
resources is inspired by the quite
manifest decadence of the States
boarding house. Whole business
blocks in that city are vacant and the
enterprising newspapers Of Sacra-
mento are hard put TO IL to discover a
remedy for such malign state oil
things. II lies in developing the sta
ples--fruits Of the temperate zones
and cereals--for which that section Is
80 happily adapted. The situation
must be met intelligently and no
frantic attempts to divert immigra-
ton from the southern portion of the
State will avail to arrest the decay Of
towns which owed all their promi-
nence 10 the mining industry. In
pointing out these things the HERALD
is not inspired by any spirit OF ill
will. II is glad 20 know that the
State at large is growing with more
rapidity than at any time in its his
tory. A splendid enrrentof immigra-
ton is setting in from the East, and
il is not confined TO any locality.
While Los Angeles has large share
Of it-probably the greatest in ratio
counties like Tulare and Fresno are
filling up as il by magic. All over
the State there il abundant evidence
that new impulse Is at work which
will probably result in giving Caliior-
mia a population of two millions OF
souls by the next census. The north
ern counties will receive their full
share Of this new and highly desira.
bic population, but they will most
surely secure it by telling the truth
about their soil and its capabilities.
The rich wheat and fruit lands OF the
foothills and valleys of the upper por-
ton Of the State can very we'll afford
TO stand on their true merits.
