The silver QuesfiOn

The gold.bug contingent is very
slim one in this State. The people by
a sort of intuition have recognized that
it would be TO their interest to prevent
the plot of the moneybsgs to demone.
tize silver and thus appreciate the
value of gold. They learned without
difficulty the important lesson that the
producer is at terrible disadvantage
when prices shrink, and they knew
without being told that it would be i'm.
possible to knock out with one blow the
immense mass of silver doing duty as
money without ruinous contraction
following. What they learned so read.
ily A. A. Sargent was incapable of
understanding. In the debates of lS77S,
whom the silver dollar was remonetzed,
he was the loudest in his opposition to
the movement. He insisted that gold
and gold only could fairly be paid to
the bondholders. He denounced those
holding views opposed to his in the
fiercest fashion, and by his attitude
conveyed the impression that he was
making special plea for Wall street
and the neybags generally. He was
reckless in prediction, and his speeches
when re-read to-day are as amusing as
Mother Shipton's prophecies. We be-
lieve the silver question TO be para.
mount one, and think that it is of inf
nitely more consequence that United
States Senator should stand square up
on this subject tran any other. The
silver men of California we are sure
will agree with us on this point, and
will do all in their power to prevent
the election of A. A. Sargent, the enemy
of silver, to the United States Senate.
The advocates or silver will bear in
mind that the original draft of the Re.
publican State Convention at Los
Angeles contained frees liver coinage
plank, which was struck out at some-
body's instance. Sargent was the man
chiefly concerned, and the presumption
is not violent one that he had some-
thing to do with its elimination. Let
silver men remember the fact and vote
against every legislative candidate sus.
pected of favoring Sargent, if they do
not wish TO be betrayed on this point =

Scale Bug Poison.

"To make 100 gallons.-Take 10 pounds

that 60-test cannot be depended upon);
gallon fish oil; p to 8 pounds blue
stone, To mix it place 10 or 10 gallons
of water in an iron boiler; then put in
the soda and oil, and bring it to boil.
Then add water until it makes o thin

Drain into your spray tank; add water
to the quantity you want, leaving room
for the bluestone, which is put in last.

take about Is gallons of water, put in

The Oil Wells.

Truck loads of black, sticky looking
casks filled with crude petroleum from
the oil wells to the railroad station, and
truck loads Of well pipe, machinery and
empty casks from the depot bound to

streets, and evidence of something being
done at the wells just north of Anaheim.
What that something is, and its impor-
tance, seems to be but slightly under.

quietly but diligently, and with such sue.
cess as to satisfy the projectors that they
will strike it big. The Mcfarland. Stew.

and day on land owned by the Chandler
Oil Mining Company. Their well is now
down to the depth Of $50 feet in fine oil

oil has been obtained for considerable
distance owe. This we'll is one of four
to be drilled by this company to the
depth of 500 feet. The Chandler and
Maxwell Company is sinking well one.
half mile east of the McFarland.S Stewart
well, which has reached depth of 325
feet, with eleven.inch casing to the bot.
tom. Work has been temporarily sus.
pended on this well, owing to a defective
boiler, but will be resumed on Monday
next with everything the ground for
a deep well. The Puente wells are but
three miles west in the same belt, and
are producing 100 barrels of fine oil per
day. A pipe line connects these wells
with Puente Station, seven miles distant
which delivers the oil on the cars by
simply turning faucet. The sixth well
is now being put down. The gentlemen
now engaged upon the Auaheim wells
having the necessary experience, finan-
cial ability and determination to succeed
will undoubtedly get what they are after.
Oil is there, and they are bound to have
it. A pipe line, one OF the attendant
necessities of the enterprise, we are as.
sured will be laid as soon as required,
and any day may bring the expected
flow of oil to the urface.-Anaheim Ga

proven itself true to its promises in so
far as it did repeal the Sunday laws
although M NJ. Estee prophesied that
it would never dare to touch them--is a
matter of fact; that the record of the
Republican party in this matter is not
only not unknown but directly repre-
hensible, needs no further elucidation.
What are we to do now? Shall we
initiate the negro woman, who once
said: ''1f de Lord tells me to butt my
head against q stone wall do it, but
it's the Lords business to look out that
my head does not get hurt?" Shall we
assist the Republican party in demol.
ishing the bulwark of our liberty and
then trust to its magnanimity that our
rights will be secure in its tender
keeping? mol thousand times 70!
Take away the liberty of thought, re-
strict the citizen in his lawful pursuits,
and what remains to which intelli-
gence can aspire?
This is German. American meeting.
| need not tell you that we are Ger
mans only in the love of cur mother
language, in the remembrance of the
country of our childhood's happiness
and in the attachment to some of our
harmless customs and modes of life. In
every olherirespect we are American
to the core and as American as the most
incarnate Yankee can be. We love
this, our adopted land, with fervid en-.
thusiasm, and with our last drop of
blood would we defend it against the
world Germany not exoluded-if the
occasion should arise. And if we old
foreigner" are sitter all thus not trust
worthy, we have left to the republic the
dearest we possess, our children, as hos
tages, whose past, present and future is
bound up in, and who stand and fall
with the republic. For that reason
alone, if for no other, would we be com.
PEELED to be good Americans. What,
then, has the country to fear of such
"foreigners?"
And yet, in the face of all that, has
the tendency to restrict us in our rights
gained headway in the ranks of the
Republican party. MIR. Swift has DUR
ing the whole of his public and private
career been warm enemy of foreign ers
and German sentiment. He voted in
the Legislature for local option and
against the repeal of the Sunday laws,
and for that and various other rea sons
deem it duty of German.America ans of
all political compilations to vote against
Mr.. Swift and his associates.
