THE extreme closeness OF the result
on the election for Governor this year
has surprised every one. Gov. Bart
lett may say of his majority, as Mer-
cato said of his wound, that it was
not ssas wide as a barn door, nor as
deep as we'll, but it will dot will
serve" The Democratic candidate
suffered from two sources = the
O'Donnell and the Wigginton vote.
1t seems almost incredible that there
should be genuine opponents OF the
Chinese curse who voted for man
who was put up expressly to defeat
the Democratic candidate for Cover
nor, but there were undoubtedly such
eccentric beings. Then, in Alameda,
Fresno and other counties, Bartlett lost
heavily by the American vote. This
party, by the way, was expressly or
ganized to beat the Democratic State
ticket and to defeat the Democratic
Congressman in the Sixth District.
Under the circumstances the miscar-
riage of this abortive organization
which died a borning-is phenomenal

THERE was an incident in the DEM
oc ratio caucus in the First ward last
night which was OF very gratifying
character to genuine Democrats.
When the caucus convened one
George l.. Stearns planted himself
in the chair as if he intended to pre-
side and dominate, SO to speak. A
blooded young Democrat raised the
question that this Stearns pattern OF
apostates was not the right man for
the place. He alluded to Stearns's
recent affiliation with the Republican
party, and his having lately sought
membership in that organization. As
q result Mr.. Stearns was relegated to
a back seat, where he ought to re-
main, in any Democratic organiza.
ton, to the crack of doom. The
Democratic party can't afford to
place its betrayers in places either OF
trust or profit.

THE NEW RAILROADS.
What is Doing i'm the Way of
Preparation.


Tomorrow for certain work begins on
the grading of the Los Angeles and La
Ballona Railroad. The delay has been
owing to the storm and to desire to
get the new harbor along to a certain
point before stopping the work. The
grading contract has been let to W. r.
Lewis of this city, and in the morning a
big gang of teams and men will 60 to
work. As the grade is very easy one,
with but little cutting and filling to
make, the sixteen miles grading will be
but the work of very few days. BY
the time it is graded the iron will proba.
bly, be here ready to lay.
The storm has likewise delayed the
arrival of the timbers for the new wharf
and harbor at La Ballona. Word
arrived here day or two
ago that the stuff was loaded
at the shipping point, and would
arrive about the middle of December.
There are two ship loads of the timbers
for this purpose. Both vessels will
arrive about the date noted above. Mr..
Campbell, the Superintendent, has been
instructed to have his pile-drivers and a
gang of men all ready to begin opera.
tions Immediately on the arrival Of the
vessels. From these points it looks as
if by the early spring, the new harbor
would be all ready for the ships, and the
line in operation from the harbor to the
city.
The levee along the river bank will
probably be begun very soon. The city
has already ordered timbers for this pur.
pose. to be paid out of the $4,000 ap.
propriated for the river levee. This
order has of course ba5n turned

rHE exhibition at Turnvereln Hall

THE exhibition at Turnvereln Hall
last night was the modern reproduc-
ton of the gladiatorial combats OF the
old Roman arena. While, even with
the protection OF four to six inch
gloves, the entertainment is somewhat
shocking to the dilettanti nerves, it
must be admitted that it is great
improvement upon the old style OF
things. While man with but sin
gle lung might find it as an opera
tion, to stand before John L. Sulli-
van, almost as dangerous as the
dying Gladiator found it to be when
the Roman ladies pointed thumbs
down, nevertheless the casualties in
the prize fighting hippodrome are
few and far between. 1t occurs to us
that John Lawrence as hygienic
agent might, after all, be very good
recourse. The man afflicted with
neuralgia, for instance, might find
certain cure in single round; while
the gentleman loaded up with tuber-
culosis would in all likelihood be re-
lieved OF his ailment as well as of his
life by good right handler sent from
the shoulder. 1t is true that the
remedy would be drastic, but then
it would not have to be repeated
often. Muscular Christianity ought
to engage Sullivan as its professor I;
while the devotees of vegetarian
diet would find in his abnormal BIZ
ceps and his tremendous fexor and
extensor muscles confirmation sure
a. proof of Holy Writ that only in
pears, beans, onions, potatoes and
parsley are the guarantees for a
race of men in which the intellectual
shall dominate over the brute. We
are inclined, we confess, to deprecate
the introduction Of the padded glove.
After all the bare knuckles are the
true arbiters of genuine pluck and en-
durance; and it is a great pity that,

track of the Ventura division of the

that he had been the first passenger,

dead-head on that virgin track. He
