Los Angeles daily herald. [microfilm reel] (Los Angeles [Calif.]) 1884-1890, 1886-04-14

Canada nnd Caiifo rnia.
Some otss has sent MS a marked
copy Of the Toronto (Csnada) World
Of 3oth March, containing an unjust
attack upon Mr.. Freeman, as the
author OF a letter which appeared in
the DAiLY HERALD OF DIST ut. be-
fore pointing out the injustice done
10 Mr.. Freeman, and the Ignorance
displayed by the writer oil the artlcie
IN the World, we will state that Mr..
F's letter was not sent TO thS Herald,
as the World implies, nor was 1t IN
tended by him for publication. IL
may be possible that a letter written
lby a gentleman in Canada, whose
Ihome had been turned into on hos
pital by the execrable and unhealthy
climate OF that country, to an init
mate friend who was enjoying the
sunlight Of Los Angeles, would draw
such strong contrasts between the
two that Canadian, ignorant oil Cal
ifornia, would pronounce them ex-
aggerated. We receive hundreds OF
letters from parties in the East and
in Canada condemning the Eastern
climate much more bitterly than did
Mr.. Freeman and many OF the let
ters from farmers assure us that II Is
almost impossible for the average
farmer to make both ends meet. IL
has very often happened that we have
been able to discover in the very
columns OF papers sent to us, con.
tanning attacks upon California ana
praise OF soms frozen Eastern locality,
i. evidence to convict the writer OF will
FIJI falsehood The Toronto Worfd
is very diminutive sheet. The
copv sent us was enclosed in an ordi-
nary letter envelope. 1t cannot,
therefore, be expected to furnish us
with many clippings; but we have
been favored by Los Angeles Ca
madam with the Globe, Mail and Ne0s
of the same date as the World con-
tanning the article we are referring
to, and also the Globe and Mail OF lst
instant. We know good deal about
the Canadian climate and the Cana
djans, but we will let their own pa
pers tell their own story, and then
the World will not think it exaggs-
rated. The World says that;
oAround Los Angeles is the dis
trict OF which it has been said that
all it needed to make it Paradise
was water and good society"
Now every one knows that the socl'
ETY. OF Los Angeles is made up largely
OF cultured and wealthy people from
Great Britain, France, the Eastern
States and some parts OF Canada
Let us see what Toronto society is as
represented by the World. In the
very next column of the issue OF that
paper containing the article attacking
California, we find this

Editor World. Owing TO the
wretched taste displayed by fully one
hundred persons at the Monday Pop::
Muslin was compelled to stop his iirst
number until these individuals were
seated. 1t was hali-past eight O'Clock
when Mr.. Rummel came on the plat
form. still the late-comers were
trooping i'm and he, too, was obliged
10 wait at least three minutes before
he could proceed. 1t is worthy OF
note that the delinquents were, al
most without exception, gentlemen
attired in ciaw-hammer coats and
ladies' in opera c'oaks and low-necked
dresses; those persons who, 30 the
plebian is given 10 understand, repre-
sents ''society," and who ape the
English in everything but good breed

To which the editor adds;
Our correspondent, though he
writes bad-temperedly, exposes a
genuine grievance in Toronto.
The Globe of Both March says:
Can nothing be done to stop the
talking and giggling OF foolish under
bred and often overdressed feather
heads of both sexes ut public con
certs, lectures and theatrical exhibi-
tionss Neither man nor woman is
responsible for not having Il musical
ear or 80 much general culture as to
enable him or her to appreciate and
take pleasure in any artistic perform
ance or exhibition. But surely all
who do not deserve to be put under
restraint ought to have as much good
sense as not to disturb by their mind
less chatter those who can appreciate
what has brought the assembly to-
gether, and would do 80 but for the
rude and uncultivated noisiness oil
those who might be described in the
words of Madame Mohl as, very
gorgeous, but vulgar, my dear, and
quite ridiculous"
A Toronto Alderman in the Mail OF
lst April says:
Toronto had been made dumping
ground for paupers from Europe.
We are willing to admit that To
ronto has the other element OF its
paradise-water-in abundance. We
are brought to this admission by
reading the weather probabilities in
the papers above named. We will
reprint them so that our readers may
see the beautiful Spring weather en-
ioyed by the Canadians:

Here is another little item from th'
