Although the immigration west,
the past two years is unparalleled in
the history of any new country, it is
stated by eastern journals, by parties
from the east and by private letters,
that but the advance guard of those
who are desirous of obtaining gov
ernment land for homes has vet
come west; thousands upon thou
sands east, north aud south are pre-
pairing to come west, and this fall
will see the greatest number OF peo-
pie seeking homes that was ever
known in the history nf any country.
Kansas, for a number of years has
beeen their promised land, and while
that is one of the best of countries,
the best land has been taken aud the
home seeker who does not want to
90 too far from the railroad will, be
compelled to come to Colorado. The
land seeker in the east already knows
this and his desire now is to learn
something about Colorado, and for
the eastern part we will say it, in
appearance, climate and quality of
soil, is but a continuance of Kansas,
with the advantage in favor of Colo
RADIO for the reason that the liver
and most of the creeks are
lined with timber. There is the
finest system of irigating bitches

there is not sufficient rainfall, crops

| Gen. VIM. Vandever, of San Buenaven.
tura, arrived in town Saturday morning
"a little late. He was to give the
faithful "whoop.up" later in the day.
In fact the General is inclined to be late
and remote, and is now running for Con-
gress as the representative of the ideas of
the late Republican party. He spoke
in the Opera House Saturday night and
before he was half through had so de.
monstrated his untitness for the position,
to the complete satisfaction of the audi.
ence that about half of them got up and
left. However, he went on manufacture
ing history just the same--some of which
was funny, ''very-very funny" He
arraigned the present National Admins.
tration for not standing up to civil SER
vice reform; and notwithstanding the
fact that Commissioner Eaton when he
offered his resignation expressed his en-.
tire approval of President Cleveland's
policy on that subject, and at the request
of the President extended the date that
it was to go into effect, in order to give
the administration time to hunt up good
Republican successor, the Republican
paleontologist held it up as crying
shame that Mr.. Eaton was forced to re-
| sign on account of the rottenness of the
Democratic administration, whereupon
the faithful chesred-not Justify, but a
good healthy cheer. We may say that
they INDUCED in this relief from the bor-
ing of the big auger on the stage two or
three times during the evening-once
when he closed the history of Andrew
Jackson's administration; once when he
told them the hitherto suppressed fact.
that the Democratic party which had
taken the territory of California from
Mexico, opposed its admission into the
Union of States; and again when he quit
speaking. The last though feeble was
sincere. AT that point he had got down
to the modern period of 1860, and that
was the only time that he came out
squarely and admitted the existence OF
anything modern, except when he took
his long range kick at the present ad
ministration; and when he wept over the
downfall of John Roach the famous con-
tractor of modern RATS, in Pennsylvania
whose failure he attributed to want Of
protection; and also when he predicted
that New York City would become 6
wilderness within twenty-five years un.
der free trade policy. 1t is doubtful
that he would have even acknowledged
anything in existence to-day had it nc
been for the fact that J. G. Rhodes in in

they think he is worthy of place in tn

The Diet of strong Men.

The Roman soldiers. who built such
wonderful roads and carried a weight OF
armor and luggage that would crush the
average farm hand, lived on coarse
brown bread and sour wine. They were
temperate in diet, and regular and con.
slant in exercise. The Spanish peasant
works every day and dances half the
night, yet eats only his black bread,
onion and watermelon. The Smyrna
porter eats only little fruit and some
olives. He eats no beef, pork or mutton,
vet he walks OH with his load OF 500
pounds. The coolie, fed on rice, is more
active and can endure more than the ne
gro fed on fat meat. The heavy work
Of the werld is not done by men who eat
the greatest quantity. The fastest OF
longest winded horse is not the biggest
eater. Moderation in diet seems to be
the prerequisite of endurance. Detroit

JOSEPH d. LYNCH.
This Democratic nominee for Congress
in the Sixth Congressional District, is a,
the present time editor and publisher o.
the Los Angeles HERALD, one of ths
staunchest Democratic dailies in Cali
fornia. He was born in Pittsburg, Penn
sylvania, March 5, 1874, aud has beer
engaged in newspaper work from the
time he arrived at the age of manhood,
and his career as publisher aud an
editorial writer has been marked with
continued success. His father was
Major David Lynch, veteran of the
war of 1872, who fought in both naval
and land forces. and spent some time in
a Canadian prison. He occupied the
position of postmaster OF Pittsburg un.
der Gen. Jackson for eight years, and
during the greater part of the period
John Bigler, afterwards Governor OF
California, was bis chief clerk. Joseph
d. Lynch spent some OF his early life in
his fathers office, and also in the Collec-
tion office at Pittsburg, and the office of
the Pennsylvania Canal Company. In
1864 he applied himself to the study OF
law in the office OF Thomas j. Keenan,,
at that time the Prothonotary of the
Supreme Court of the Western District
of Pennsylvania, and also the proprietor
and editor of the Pittsburg Legal Jour
nal While pursuing his law studies he
acted as compositor on the Journal
and when he was admitted to the bar
became editor of the paper. After about
one years experience he accepted po.
sition on the local staff of the Pittsburg
Dispatch, and was afterwards engaged
in the newspaper business in st. Louis
and New York city. He came to Cali.
fornia in 1872 and became the editor OF
the San Diego World, Democratic
paper published by Gatewood & Briseno,
in which position he continued for two
years, when he returned East and re.
NAMED there for several months. In

Los Angeles his home. For several
years he was associated with the present

the control of the daily and weekly

paper in Southern California. His earn
est and intelligent championship of the
interests of Southern California has COM
mended him to the friendship and con.
fidence of men of all parties in that half
of the State. As consequence he will
receive at the next election great many
votes Of men who usually favor the Re.
publican ticket. His frank, bluff, and
outspoken manner, and his genial

One carload of steel rails for our
street railroad arrived this week, and
will be used in finishing the line to
Tustin. Two carloads more are due, and
when they arrive the road will be ex-
tended to the terminus of Fourth street.
The cars are nearly ready, and can be
finished up in short order. 1t is likely
that systematic effort will be made to
push the road from Santa Ana to Orange.
A few thousands of dollars have already
| been subscribed 10 stock in the enter.
prise.
Articles of Incorporation of the bank
ofk Orange are now being prepared. The
capital sock will be 500, 900. The
promoters of the enterprise are solid
citizens of Santa Ana and Orange. A
two-story brick building will be erected
on the lot adjoining C. M. Woodruff s
on the south, which was purchased
some time since for that purpose. A
public hall will be made of the upper
story. The bank will be equipped and
appointed as we'll as the other banks Of
the county. Orange is growing rapidly,
and such a bank will no doubt be well
patronized.
The big dryer Of the Tustin company
steamed up last Hweek, and will dry about
one hundred tons of grapes this season
A large pipe is being connected witt
their steam apparatus so as to dry rails

factured by this company sold last yeal
for good price. Some of the last sea

cellent. The dryer has a capacity o
eight tons at time. The grapes th'
company are now curing were partially
dried by the sun, and only require thrc,
or four days to finish them into excel
