REPUBLICANS are scattered around
Los Angeles thick as leaves in Val
lambrossa. The delegate and the
boss are cheek by jowl, and the work
Of exeogitating ticket is proceeding
with exemplary expedition. Alas !
that 80 much labor should be be-
slowed upon such bootless under
takingl However, adversely is said
to have its sweet and bitter uses, and
many a man who will be put up to be
beaten in the coming session OF the
Republican State Convention will be
the better for it for years to come.
Hereafter he will know how to dis
cover the signs of the times with a
more incentive and sagacious eye.
Our people will take it kindly on the
part of Republicans in all portions o.
California that they have come in
person and not by proxy. Even the
delegates from Inyo and Mono coun'
ties will be on hand. This degree o
interest is quite hattering to the
Angelic City, and will be returned
through an unstinted hospitality. II
was at first supposed that the dis
lance to Los Angeles was so great
from the central and northern coun
ties that a plentiful use would be
made of proxies, and it is pleasant tC

No time should be lost in thorough
ly imbuing the Internal Revenue Off
Gals with the necessity of SO admin
istering the law as to protect the
brandy maker, which is another way
OF saying the vine grower. The sys-
tenn as administered prior to the APP
pontment of Hon. Asa Ellis was sat
isfactory to the producers, manufac-
turers and people generally, and it
yielded a large income to the govern
ment. Instead OF attempting to make
a partzan matter of it Angelenos
should get together and move upon
the Department in force. The grape
growers are doing their share, but
the movement ought not to be re-
stricted to them. The prosperity OF
a portion OF our people concerns and
is part of the whole; and any one
who can bring any influence to bear
in the premises ought to do it at once.
The Internal Revenue officials are
doubtless acting from misappre-
hension as to their duty. They
should be convinced, or overruled
from Washington, rather than rallied
against.

THE Los Angeles grape growers
yesterday expressed their preference
for our excellent townsman. Mr.. l..
j. Rose, for the Democratic candidacy
for Governor. This handsome com
pliment was rendered without regard
to party. There are few men who
deserve more of the people of this
section than Mr.. Rose, and, in ordin-
airy years, his friends would probably
rally and put him through, ii he de-
sired it. lie stated in the Convention
yesterday that he did not desire it,.
Just now there is an overmastering
impulse amongst the people which
will doubtless not end until Hon.
George Hearst is landed in the
gubernatorial chair. Under other
circumstances Mr.. Rose, eminent AZ
viticulturist and developer OF the
leading interests of the. State, woulC
prove TO be most formidable com
petitor. He is a man of whom hi
section is proud.

Governor Stoneman has at last
published the list Of the signers to
the memorial which induced him to
call the special session Of the Legis-
lature. OF the one hundred and six
teen members Of that body-the orig
inal number, one hundred and TWEEN
ty, had been reduced by death and
absence from the State TO that figure
--eighty-ave, or within a triae Of
three-fourths, had invited him TO
give them the opportunity TO be use
full to the people Of the State. The
language in which the appeal is made
is sweeping and unequivocal. Every
man who put his name to this paper
knew exactly what he was doing,
and he cannot look his constituents
in the face after his shameful legis-
lative fasco and plead the baby act.
We observe that there are no pro-
tests on the part of the signers, and
there probably will not be. We are
thus treated to the spectacle Of men
who solemnly ask for the converting
of the Legislature OF which they are
members, under the plea Of urgent
public necessity, and who, when it
assemblies, deliberately pervert its
mission to selfish and personal pro-
jects. At an outlay, as pointed out
by Senator jeremiah Lynch, Of $780,
900, all the legislators have done has
been to forget utterly the purpose for
which they ostensibly caused them
selves TO he convened, and TO unseat
George Hearst, to put in his place a
Republican who will hold his seat at
the most for two weeks OF actual
Legislative work, and that in the
holidays. The entire responsibility
for this indispensable outrage rests
upon the Republican party, which is
overwhelmingly in the majority in
the Legislature, and the masses will
know how to hold il to accountability
for its gross breach of trust.

as M. de Lesseps saws, the company
could not afford TO risk great interests
by legislative DELAYS. The neople of
small means in France being with
him, as they were in HE Suez enter
prise, he felt that he might trust them
to protect their own interests, and
the sequel shows the correctness Of
his Judgment.
M, de Lessons cites various author
tiles 10 show that the measurement
OF the vessels which will pass through
the canal the first year after its COM
pletion will probably not fall short Of
five millions OF tons, which, at a Toll
of $3.50 per ton, will yield hand
some revenue, expenses deducted.
In January last Mr.. de Lesseps in
vited the various European chambers
Of commerce TO send some Of their
members with him to Panama In
order to examine and report on what
had been done, the difficulties TO be
overcome and the means at control
TO secure success. His invitation
was accented and. in COMPANY with

DELEGATIONS of the chambers of COM
MERGE and many visiting strangers
sailed up the canal for a distance Of
seventeen kilometers, say ten miles,
finding il of full width and OF an
average depth of nineteen feet. pass-
ing ON the way thirteen dredgers, Of
which two were of 300 horse power,
and one, the Dingler, was capable of
excayating 10000 cubic metres in
twenty-four hours. At Boca, ON the
Panama side, he found two large
river dredges and four others in
course Of construction. In all, seven
dredges must now be at work at that
point. In the deep cuttings steam
paddles and excavators of all known
descriptions are at work, the removal
of the excavated material employing
1902 cars and 1853 locomotives. 1t
appears that $40 kilmeters of narrow
gauge road have been laid to facili-
tate matters and that some 1900
men, principally negroes from the
French West Indies, are employed.
All the foregoing may appear very
rose colored; but one thing is beyond
doubt, and that is that the French
people have pinned their faith to Mr..
de Lesseps and are determined in
this canal matter to sink or swim
with him and to secure final success
they appear willing to yield up their
last cent. As far as the balance of
mankind is concerned, it can afford

He expects that the force will eX-
cavate 100000 cubic meters per
month during the year 1887 and that
it will increase it to 100000 cubic
metres per month, thence on to its
completion in 1889.
To illustrate what may be the value
OF the Panama canal, he states that
that OF Suez has paid in dividends to
the French stockhol ders the sum OF
twelve hundred and twenty millions
of francs, or, say two hundred and
forty millions of dollars. Such a
piece of property cannot be looked
upon with contempt, even in a coun-
try where interest is one per cent per
month. Independently OF her desire
to control it, such must have been
England's idea, for, under Beacons-
field, she bought up all the stock OF
the Khedive Of Egypt, and she would
own it all probably were there any Of
it on the stock boards OF the world.
