Correspondence of the HERALD.
Although we anticipated a throng OF
people to our Colony the coming season.
we did not expect them in such numbers,
at so early date. Nor did we expect
so large a percentage Of the arrivals to
make their homes permanently among
US. but it seems to be almost an universal
opinion among prospectors that our
Colony is bound to prosper, bound to
become one of the most desirable places
in cur great valley, both as health re-
sort and as spot where the orange, the
lemon, the olive and the fig may be
grown to their greatest perfection; hence
a very large proportion buy lands. In
provements are consequently booming.
New firms and new enterprises are fast
appearing before US for patronage, and
thus the wheels of commerce and indus
try are fast rolling round,
A Mr.. Smith from Kansas arrived here
several weeks ago very much afflicted
with asthma. The short time he has re-
NAMED here has convinced him that our
pure, dry, bracing air is what he requires,
and in o few days be will open to the
public grocery and crockcry store.
One of our latest and also one of our
most desirable acquisitions is the loca.
tion here Of r. S. Black, M. d. and
family, who come from Halifax. N. s.,
and have purchased beautiful tract
upon the mesa lands, just at the foot
hills, where he will at an early day erect
q fine residence. DR.. Blacks opinion
upon medical matters, we regard as very
high, and his location upon our foothills,
after having examined the climatic quail
ties to be found at Los Angeles, Pasa'
dena and. other popular points, we re.
gard as another star in the crown of our
prosperity.
DR.. Keoneghan, of Philadelphia, also
finds Ontario air very excellent to breathe
and speaks highly of our Colony.
The Atchison and Topeka train, yes.
terday morning, brought back to us our
gentlemanly manager of the Land Com
pany, who has been absent in Toronto
| for some time. Mr.. Frankish locke we'll
after his long trip aud seems pleased to
again get to the land of sunshine, prefer
ring the little dust we have to the rain,
wind and mud he experienced East. Ac.
comranyiug him " were his father and Mr..
and Mrs. j. s. Anderson and child, also
| of Toronto.
We regret to announce the illness OF
Mr.. c. p. Lyndall, our genial station
agent. We hope for his speedy recov.
cry.
Lastly we are pleased to be able to say
that we hear the Democratic ticket high
ly spoken of from every quarter The
| few Democrats in Ontario are steadily
working on endeavoring to pile still
higher the great, grand victory which
will be ours November ID. 1t is daily
occurrence to hear men say: 81 always
vote Republican, but know Hiram
Barton to be solid on irrigation, not sure
Of Eckles. l know j. D. Lynch to have
worked these ten years past in the up.
building of our country, to have worked
like hero, ard to be solid on the irriga'
tion question, but don't know of
l;ngle act of Vandever's whereby the
public benefited. l know Washington
Bartlett to have administered the affairs
OF the city of San Francisco in manly,
straightforward, economical manner, but
what can I say of the tricks of Swift"
All Democrats are solid for the best
ticket and the best platform ever offered
the people Of California to vote upon.
All mugwumps," so.called, have the
good common sense to support ticket
which will elect good, sound, honest men
to control the affairs of the State. And
many Republicans refuse to support q
ticket whose head is a trickster only
surpassed by that veteran trickster,
James G. Blaine, and whose Secretary of
State, low in infamy as he has sunken,
dares to ask the suffrages of the people.
