THE Laramie papers have already te-
gun to claim that the vote cast in Lara
ME City at the last election was greater
than that cast in Cheyenne. The vote
cast here was not so large as it should
have been, but the official returns show
2,643 votes cast for delegate as compared
with /, 944 votes cast for delegate in Lara
ME. A trIfing difference OF 705 votes
doesen't worry a Laramie editor when he
goes into the claiming business.

MIR. MARK MCDONALD, the we'll
known operator and capitalist of San
Francisco, has just returned North,
after quite tour of observation in this
section. Mr.. Mcdonald gave us a
call before he left, and said that he
was more impressed than ever with
the prosperous future Of our country.
The growth of Los Angeles city, he
said, was justified by the boundless
resources Of the rich territory tributary
to her. Personally he was delighted
to know that his home, Santa Rosa,
was about to be placed in immediate
connection with one section of the
new railroad running direct from his
town to Benicia. This would enable
bis people to get their oranges-of
which they are very fond-direct from
our orchards.

s. S. Cox. of New York, has a bill
be fore the National House OF Repre-
sentatives, which looks to fixing the
salaries of railroad mail clerks at from
$1,000 to $500 per annum. We can
only speak from knowledge of this
matter as it affects the route clerks on
this coast. Speaking within these
limits we can safely say that their du-
ties are very onerous, that they make
very long rnns-sometimes as much as
nineshundred miles and back. They
have no home and are obliged 10 pay
transient rates OF board at both ends
of their run, and in many ways incur
heavy expenses. As salaries and duties
go in these parts the limits are far
from xtravagant.

THE Republican papers are trying
very hard to make it appear that
there is serious split amongst the
local Democratic leaders. The differ
ences between two or three Demo
Gratis upon points of local policy
amount to nothing. But what are we
to think of the Republican happy
family The split with that men
agerie is 80 broad that it forms an
impossible chasm. The long hairs
and the short hairs blend like
oil and water. They are as har-
monious as monkeys and as loving as
cats and dogs. They have their
separate newspaper organs, and agree
to disagree, not only locally, but. upon
every question OF State and National
party conduct. While the long hairs
are boosting John Sherman, the short
hairs are getting in effective work for
Jim Blaine. And the mush-a-fa-las
will make it very binding for the
good-Lord- -deliver-us fellows.

THE fact is noticeable that in the
discussion on the Tariff bill before the
House, Mr.. Mills argued upon the
merits of the measure and the effects
the proposed changes would have
upon the industries OF the nation but
when Mr.. Kelley" "Pig-iron" Kelley
of Pennsylvania-took the floor to
reply, he at once branched off into
an utterly irrelevant matter-into a
matter which has no bearing on
the subject in dispute, nor on any
other subject in which the great
American people are interested.
Mr.. Kelley spent large part OF
his time in setting forth what we all
know, but what only the Kelley kind
see anything in-that most of the
me mbers of the COMMITTEES on Ways
and Means are from the Southern
Stares. Mr.. Kelley is old, cold and
astute, but he is far behind the age.
He was born too soon.

Here is the way our lumber barons
are helping to build up the country
and make a permanent business for
themselves. Some months ago there
came to the Semi-Tropics and made up
his mind to settle in Los Angeles, a
wealthy citizen from the East. Buying
a lot, he sent to friend at the East
an order to draw plans for a fine
house. The drawings and specifca-
tions being finished, bids were received
from some of our contractors for the
erection of the mansion. The sum
seemed somewhat enormous to the
new arrival; SO he sent the
plans back to his home in Michi
gan to get bids there for pur-
poses of comparison. Imagine his
amazement, when these were read, to
find them but little more than fifty
per cent of the figures made by
builders in this city. Such differ
ence in the cost OF the house set this
thrifty immigrant from the wolverine
State to seek reason. He found
what he was looking for in the enor-
nous cost of all the materials used in
building a house. Now, the man
from Michigan is the fortunate pos
SCISSOR of a big pine forest in the upper
peninsula of his native State, and he
proposes to use it in keep
ing down the cost OF lumber to
60 into his house in Los Angeles
He will have every stick to go into
the edifice sawed, surfaced and other
wise prepared and made ready to fit
right into his new house. The work
will all be done in Michigan, and we
lose all the benefit of having the labor
done here. He says he can do this,
ship the material across the continent,
and yet save $l3 per thousand feet on
an average for all the lumber used in
the building.
He also made inquiry as to the cost
o + the iron material used in such
work, and the result is the same as in
the case of lumber-he can save an
Q normous percentage by buying at
the East, and he will do so. The same
is true Of everything used in the con-
struction of house. He will import
the lime that goes into the mortar
from the Missouri river.
The policy which makes such
things necessary is neither right
nor wise. 1t will result in re-
tarding our development in this
section in no slight degree and it will
result in destroying in a large meas
ure the business of those who pursue
such a policy. The lumber barons
of this coast are at this moment doing
their utmos to strangle the industries
of this section, to bring the present
era of development to standstill, and
to ruin hundreds of people.

LUCAS ARRESTED.
A Serious Charge Against a PrI
vate Detective.

n ScHtOus CuaTRc against n Fri.
vate Detective.
Among the excitements yesterday
in police circles, there was none that
created such profound sensation as
the arrest Of A. j. Lucas, of Lucas &
Co. 3 Pacific Coast Detective Agency
by the Mayors detectives,
Messrs. Harris and Metzler. Vari.
GUS reports were afloat all the
afternoon and evening as to the
grounds on which the arrest was
based, and as to the probable outcome
of the proceedings. In order to get at
the bottom facts in the matter a
HERALD reporter was detailed to make
an investigation, which he did by
prosecuting series of interviews
from which the following information
was cleaned:
The primary cause of Mr.. Lucas
arrest lies with William Elton, now
held in the county Jail to answer the
charge of burglary. Elton's arrest
and incarceration occurred the latter
part Of last week and is still fresh in
the minds Of the public. It was
stated at the time that he was noted
crook and to avoid punishment for
crime had escaped from England.
This statement is now corroborated
by his own confession. Jailor Russell
is responsible for the statement that
last Tuesday Elton made confession
to him in which he not only admitted
his own guilt, but also implicated De-
tective Lucas.

the abolishment Of the entire Internal
Revenue system was defeated because Il
carried with it the abolition Of the tax on
whisky and other liquors and that was
really not intended, by Garfield Assembly.
But in regard 10 that section opposing
the Mills tariff bill as whole, it was de.
feated by the Trades Assembly solely be-
cause 1t was too much in the nature of n
political measure. and the Trades As,em-
bly, did not desire to handle anything of
that kind, as was shown by the majority
OF the delegates who took part In the dis-
cussion and by the vote that defeated II.
