Is JAKE SHARPE dead? That is a
conundrum hard to answer satisfac-
torily. During recent weeks while his
trial has been in progress, Jake has
been leading life of dual existance.
Jake out on bail, has driven pair OF
spanking bays in the park, and out
along the rural roads beyond the
city. Mr.. Sharpe on these occasions
has presented the spectacle Of man
of hale old age. The SHOWS of winter
have whitened his locks, it is true, but
if the season of life was frosty, it was
kindly. In court Mr.. Sharpe has
been sharp enough to dress in all
the habiliments of decrepid and
broken old age. He has leaned his
heavy weight of years and infirmities
heavily on staff, and has shuffled
his steps painfully in the presence OF
the court. 1t will be remembered
that at his death much mystery sur
rounded the house. No one was al
lowed to see him, or come near the
casket supposed to contain the mortal
remains. The question naturally ar
rises, has Mr.. Sharpe mot with gilded,
but with cunning hand, put by justice
before the earthly court, yet escaped
the summons into the presence where
such tricks cannot be played.

THE Police Commissioners yester-
day granted the petition of the Joint
Boards OF Directors of the Girls Home
and of the Boys and Girls Aid So
ciety, asking that Mrs. H. A. Watson
be appointed a special officer. Mrs.
Watson has heretofore devoted her
services to the first-named institution
gratis. Her labors in that connection
have been largely OF a police character.
She has also for two years acted as
agent for the Boys and Girls Aid
Society of San Francisco in gathering
up and sending the vicious children
of our city to that institution. This
work she has also performed gratis,
and now that we are about to have a
Boys and Girls Aid Society here,
she will continue to carry out her
work in connection with our own
institution. 1t is no more than fair
that Mrs. Watson should receive COM
pensation for her services. They are
given for the benefit of the public
they are of a police character, and hel
salary should come out Of the public
treasury.

SENATOR MoRR,,1 favors the couptr,

SENATOR MORRILL, favors the country
with his views on taxation for sur
plus. He says that the withdrawal
of the impost on foreign woods will
wipe out sheep husbandry in
Texas, where cheap woods cannot be
grown without protection. The very
fact that graded foreign woods can be
had at cheaper prices will increase the
market for the cheap Texas woods,
which will be wanted by oui
manufacturers to mix with that
of the high-priced importations.
This is a fact that has been testified
to by California wool-raisers, whose
products increase in demand in pro-
portion to The volume Of importations
of fine woods from abroad.

State is in the grip OF a grinding ring
of fmonopolistic manufacturers. Strenu-
GUS efforts have been made to break
up this unholy alliance against labor
in all its forms. but the money-bags
of the State have been too powerful.
Last year the vote cast was larger
than any then on record. But the
late election called out 4,5l6
more voters than that. At the
election the other day there
were polled 7,02S votes more than in
the Presidential campaign of four
years ago. This was large gain, and
most of 1t rds Democratic-three hun
dred and fourteen OF it was Demo
cratic. The net Republican gain over
the Blaine vote was 1,73S, while the
Democrats polled 5,l53 votes more
than were cast for Cleveland. AS te
the gain made by the Republicans
over the vote of last year, it was al
the Prohibition vote which came back
to the parent fold in the day Of dis
tress. The Republican managers sue
ceeded in whipping the cold-watel
people back into line, and that saved
the ticket.

CaledOnian Club.

The entertainment given by the
Caledonian Club at the Grand Army
Hall last night was one of the most
enjoyable affairs Of the kind that has
ever taken place here. The pro-
gramme included vocal and instru-
mental selections, but the evening was
mainly devoted to the worshippers OF
Terpsichore Quadrilles followed
values with amazing rapidity, and
the iron constitutions of the Los An
geles girls was ably demonstrated by
the fact that they were always on
hand when a dance was announced,
and this in room where the temper.
ature could not have been less than
100. Master Robbie Burns delighted
all present with his graceful dancing,
and shared the honors of the evening
with Miss Pearl Gleason, whose abil-
tiles have asserted themselves on
many previous occasions. The festiv-
tiles were continued until "the witch
ing hour" when after the singing OF
"Auld Lang Syne" the participators
wended their way homewards, thor
oughly satisfied with the manner in
which they had passed the evening.

We are assured that not a single
white banking game has been opened
in this city since Chief Cuddy took
charge OF our police department, and
that the Chinese tan games have been
nearly altogether driven out.
This shows that really de-
termined and efficient Chief
of Police can suppress gambling
and make the knights of the green
cloth respect the laws. 1t is an
achievement that has never, before
been accomplished in this or any
other city of California. We had
come to think that there was some
thing inherently defective in munich
pal police administration which
rendered such consummation i'm
possible; but we are now confronted
with the pleasing fact that We were
wrong. The difficulty has not been
heretofore, it would seem, in the lax
ity of power, but in the laxity of
will and sapoir.faire on the part of
our Republican Chiefs of Police.
1t was left for a Democratic Chief to
demonstrate the fact that banking
games can be suppressed in the City
OF the Angels, if nowhere else. This
is a proud plume in Mr.. Cuddy's hat,
and we hope that it will continue to
adorn his triumphant crest.

The CampobeIlo Concert

We regret 10 say that the second
and concluding Campobello concert
last night was as poorly attended as
the first. Our people cannot have
been aware of the merit of these con-
certs, or they would have accorded
them generous patronage. Campo
bello himself is an artist of the highest
order, and he was supported, vocally,
by three very superior and trained
voices. The Joran sisters are really
wonderful instrumentalists on piano
and violin. Taken altogether, it will
be many day before the people Of
Los Angeles will have an opportunity
to enjoy so perfect musical treat as
Signor Campohello has offered them

silver or Tariff?

Some OF our tariff Tor taxatiOn
friends are in the throes lest the
American farmer be brought into
competition with the cheap labor OF
India in the wheat industry. In 1874
the first wheat was shipped to Europe
from British India. The amount was
$4,000 bushels. In 1885 the wheat
exports from the land OF the Parsees
had reached 42,50O,000 bushels.
Now, what had the tariff schedule OF
the United States to do with this
result. In 1879 there was failure OF
the India wheatcrop, and the steadily
increasing export of wheat was almost
cut off. The next season the ship
ments ran up to $4,000, 600 bushels
The exports OF this staple from oui
ports in the year 1879 were 1885,
252, 795 bushels of the value of $780,
546,305; while in 1885 we exported
only 81, ,759, ,2O9 bushels Of wheat bring
ing in return of $50, O,262,7l5. In the
former year the price averaged 81 20
per bushel, while in the latter season
the crop averaged less than so cents
per bushel. What had the American
Tariff Schedule to do with that? The
year 1879 was very dull one in near.
" all parts OF the Union; 1885 was a
I'D year, and other things being
J esS. &C y 70 price Of produce should
Eve 1HHn 1HHsen correspondingly better.
Is it the wicked Democratic
tariff tinkers who are to blame for
thus bringing our farmers-over whom
the tariff for surplus advocates shed
80 many crocadile tears-into compe
tition with this cheap labor of India
Certainly it is not, and for the infor
nation OF these parrot-like utterers O
a senseless shibboleth, who appear tt
think that the American tariff sched
ule is the cause of eclipses OF the
moon, of earthquakes, OF the retreat o
Xerxes and the confusion of tongues
ut Babel, let us say. this dire re-
suit was brought about by Mr.
John Sherman and the conspirator;
who demonetized silver by their ways
that were dark and their tricks that
were not in vain. Mark the date
when the exports of wheat from In.
dia began--just one year after the con,
spirators demonetized silver. There
Is the whole matter. The purchasing
power of gold was doubled by that
dark act of treason. The value of a
bushel of wheat was made less
by that underground legislation,
which put us in the hands
of bond-holders and gold hoard
ers. India is a silver country.
a dollar is dollar, and with plenty
of coin the farmer gets greater num-
,ber OF dollars for his work. With an
utterly inadequate supply Of circulat-
ing medium in the Union, our far
mers are put at disadvantage. The
cheap labor of India is able to com.
pete with us, despite the fact thai
India lacks our enterprise, our agri
cultural machinery, our railroad sys
TEN and all the other advantages
which progressive America should
have over slow-going Asia. Will the
Republican party remonetize silver?

First Congregational Church last
night, under the auspices Of the Y.
M. G. A. He was greeted with a
fair audience, whom he entertained
for an hou, aud half with a most in
teresting account of a journey to Je-
rusalem. The Rev. Mr.. Brown has
travelled extensively, and possesses a
vast fund of information relative
to the points of interest to tour
lists and the places usually visited
by them. In last nights nights talk
he recounted the journey from New
York to Liverpool, thence to London,
Paris, Milan, Venice, Florence, Rome,
Naples, Egypt and the Holy Land !,
terminating the journey at Jerusalem.
He described scenes and incidents
along the way, that were both in
structive and amusing. Rev. Browns
oratory is good. and his lectures are
spiced with just enough humor to
make an evening with him mirthful
and enjoyable. He promises in the
near future to lecture in this city on
his travels in China and Japan.
