Two Practical Matters of Great
Imnarfnnce.


Good weather may now be expect
ed to continue, with but slight inter
ruption, the remainder OF the season.
The next two months will show Los
Angeles county at its very loveliest.
With splendid days and lovely nights,
the brief visitations OF storm during
the past winter will be soon forgot
ten. The streets of the city and the
rural highways will be at their best
for travel. The minds OF our people
will be turned away from everything
relating to the exigencies of winter
Under these circumstances the an
cient routine. with reference to street
impaovefhents, may be again pre-
1l6A In the dry weather coming,
the flood, with its accompaniment OF
a loss OF several lives and large
amount OF property, will probably be
entirely dropped from public recol-
lection. In short, nothing will likely
either be thought or done about either
river or streets until another winter
is upon us. This procedure should
stop. The plan OF the backwoods
Arkansan in the cabin with leaky
roof should be followed no longer
Our people and the city authorities,
despite the lulling influences OF dry
weather and streets, in spite OF the
counter allurements of politics and
the anti-Chinese crusade, regardless
Df all other Inducements, no matter
how worthy or entieing they may be,
should see to it without fail that be-
fore the advent OF next winter some
practical and proper plans for the
confning OF the waters OF the river
and prevention of future floods and for
1 paving the leading streets of the city,
are adopted and commenced to be car
ried into execution. These matters OF
leveling and confning the river and
of paving the streets should not be
allowed to drop out OF public atten-
|. tion. There should be just as much
interest in them now as at any other
time. No repetition of last years
flood thould be allowed if it be possi-
BILE to prevent such calamity by
any species of engineering work.
That future floods can be prevented
bv proper effort admits of no doubt
And in addition TO the intense incon-
yenience and disgusting appearance
NJ the principal streets on account OF
he mud and their want of paving, TO
ythe great disadvantage OF our people,
il is a fact that large numbers OF
Eastern visitors who came here TO
spend the winter left Los Angeles
and went elsewhere simply on ac-
count of the horrible condition OF
the streets. This not only directly
affected the business of the city, but
these Justly dissatisfied people gave
our place bad name abroad. Streets
of mud and slush, hardly admitting
H>ss.J ,comotion or travel, present few

That contaminating and foreign ele.

gestion is the cause of rheumatism. This
settles on the sensitive sub-cutaneous
covering Of the muscles aud ligameuts Of
the joints, causing constant and shifting
pain, aud aggregating as a calcareous,
chalky deposit. which produces stiffness
and distortion of the joints. No fact
which experience has demonstrated in
regard to Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
has stronger evidence to support than
this, namely, that this medicine of com

to the poisons often used TO arrest it,

The Chinese are beginning TO
threaten retaliation against American
residents in China, by driving them
from the country. There are only a
handful Of Americans in that country,
and they would be in better business
nj home. AS far as trade is con-
cerned, our commerce with China
practically amounts TO nothing, II
all relations with that country, OF all
kinds, were cut off, it would be inf
nitely better for us. The San Fran
cisco Bulletin, conservative paper,
puts the yearly drain of money from
this coast TO China at "twenty mil
lions of dollars, il it is a dollar"
The Statistical Abstract OF the
United States for 1886" shows that in
that year the United States only ex-
ported to China commodities to the
value Of SO, ,3G0 ,50l while our exports
the same year TO Great Britain and
Ireland amounted TO the enormous
sum Of 1898, JOB, ,2O3. Our country
exported the same year to the Argen-
tine Confederation 1866, SOL, and TO
the insignificant Kingdom Of Belgium
$28, ,45s, ,240, $7,3l7 ,293 to Brazil,
SAG, ,70s, 900 to France and $62, ,222, 79l
TO Germany. These figures show that
our trade to China, OF which so much
is prated by pro-Chinese advocates,
amounts to nothing. And as
TO the Americans who have
voluntarily expatriated them
selves in the land of rats and
rice, they had better return to their
own country or at once don the queue
and wooden sandal, and permanently
'renounce the home of their birth.
OF course, no oneacan excuse or ad-
vocatc any outrage or Violence
against the Chinese already here in
California, but il the few American
cranks who prefer to live in Asia to
staying in the United States are to be
made an excuse for perpetuating a
treaty which threatens to impoverish
Z the Pacific Coast, and to fasten the
Mongolian incubus upon us forever,
then we say the sooner John carries
out his threat and drives them home
the better. As a matter of fact, the
few Americans in China have little
protection and small privileges at any
time. They are not allowed to travel
and locate anywhere at will, as the
Chinese are in this country. There
are only certain specified points
where they are allowed to stay at all,
and even at those points under the
most strenuous restrictions. They
serve no good purpose in staying
there, unless for private gain or the
qualification OF useless whims. They
cannot hope to build up trade ol
any Importance with China, as, small
as that trade now is, statistics show
that II is gradually decreasing, year
by year. The American residents in
China deserve little encouragement.
But, OF course, our Government must
protect them against personal vio-
lence, as far as possible, and will
doubtless see that China does not
visit any blind fury upon them. Yet,
as said before, they are in poor busi-
ness, and had better be at home.
There is little probability, however,
that the Mongols will do more than
threaten. The Oriental mind is given
TO exaggcration and buster, which
generally means but little. We are
a long ways off from a war with
China, as far as yet shown.

point raised by the Chinese in their fight
