Democracy in DOxvney.

DoNNE1, OctOUeT o. 1000.
EDITOR HERALD.-This has been gala
week for the people OF Los Nietos Valley.
One OF the most successful fairs ever held
in Los Angeles county closes at this place
to-day. The Pathological Society has also
been in session aud has added to the attrac-
tions of the week. But the richest treat OF
all was the grand Democratic rally which
took place last night. A stand was erected
at steps OF Central Hotel, and large bonfire
made in middle of the street. Anyils
doomed the glad tidings to the thrifty
people of this valley that at the coming
election the Democratic party-the party
OF the people-will sweep the State as well
as the county of Los Angeles. Long before
speaking began, the gallery of hotel, steps,
sidewalks and street were filed with people
eager to hear some OF the most gifted ora
tors OF our State. On motion, Judge Ven
able was made Chairman of the meeting
and J. N. Pemberton. Secretary As Vice
Presidents Messrs. Kerns. Bulls, Palette
Kendrick, Cochrane and Caruthers Music
for the occasion was furnished by the
"Norwalk Band" which like all OF Nor
walks efforts was splendid. Every speaker
was enthusiastically cheered and but one
sentiment seemed to be visible, viz. that
the Democrats had started in to win and
were going to do it. Speeches were made
by Messrs. L J. Rose, Patton, Smith, Mar
tin, Spurgeon. Wicks, Eaton, Bragg. Kays,
Shaw and stephen NJ. White. 1t would be
useless for me to give an account of each
speech. Such names as stephen NJ. White.
L. j. Rose, J. C. Kays are too well known
for your correspondent to dwell upon them.
Mr.. Shaw is at home when in Downey, as
he was Principal of the Downey schools for
several years. He has made himself de-
servedly popular here, both among Demo.
Gratis and Republicans He is a schoolman
in every sense of the word and this valley
will east its vote solid for him. But to at
tempt to say who is the popular man on our
ticket is an impossibility.
Every candidate is so well known and So
well identified with the best interests of
Los Angeles county that even Republicans

lican admits anything, You may know his
