SAN PEDRO.
A New TOwnsitc Being Built Up by

A New TOwnsitc Being Built Up by
the 3. p.
When the Southern Pacific announced
its intention of building over the plateau
that bounds San Pedro on the west so as
to get at the point where it decided to
build its new wharf there was only one
house on the piece of ground. To-day
there are $50 and others are going up
This is doubtless due to the fact that it
is generally known that the late Mr..
Crocker owned a large quantity of the
property referred to, and would doubtless
improve it as much as possible. At the
present time an outfit of well-borers
are hard at work on it looking
for artesian water, and have instructions
to sink 1000 feet if necessary. They have
already struck water several times, but
it is not as good as desired and they will
60 still deeper. In addition to the main
track, the s. P. has established yard
on the plateau, and six side tracks have
already been laid. 1t is stated that the
S. P. is endeavoring to purchase large
quantity of property adjoining the Crocker
townsite, but the owners hold it at a
figure that is considered exorbitant.

THE LATEST ARRIVAL.
MIR. Quigley Hard at work Practic-

N1r. Qutgley Hard at Work PractiC.
ing ''KOck.a.Bye."
Mr.. ]. B. Quigley, the vigilant and
courteous representative in this territory
of the Burlington system, is the happiest
man in the country. For the past week
he has been sleeping with his clothes on
at his Santa Monica residence, and when
in town has never ventured very far
away from the telephone. Yesterday
morning as he was listening attentively
to Col. Scott's recital of the reasons why
that gentleman did not enter holy orders
as was intended for him in early youth,
a wild-eyed boy announced that Mr.. @.
was wanted at the phone. Five minutes
later and the gentleman in ques-
tion was beating the record in
trip to the Commercial street
depot where he was soon whirled away bv
steam to the oceans side. About II
O'Clock the ringing of the electric bell
called Col. Scott to the "Hello" trumpet
and that gentleman received communi-
cation that wreathed his face with a
thoughtful smile. He spoke to nobody
but went down the Burlington short cut
and soon appeared and handed around a
box of choice Havanas on the lid OF which
was engrossed: Compliments of Miss
Quigley, arrived August 27, 1888. Weight
81 pounds"
Mr.. Quigley came in on the evening
train and had to undergo hand shaking
that must have developed his biceps far
beyond their normal size. He carried back
with him handsome silver cup, knife,
fork and spoon which were sent down to
little Miss Quigley by the railroad boys
with their regards and congratulations
and the hope that her walk through life
would be pleasant one.

A Loss to the 8, p,

About ten days ago Mr.. G. J. Wilder,
Freight Auditor of the Southern Pacific,
led to the altar the daughter of Mr.. J. G..
Burt, of San Bernardino, who is one of
the wealthiest residents OF that place, be-
ing President of the Bear Valley Water
Company, President of the Board of
Trade, President of the Electric Light
Company and chief owner of the Stewart
House. Mr.. Wilder's many friends has
tened to congratulate him on his good
luck, but those officially associated with
him are sorry to hear that as an outcome
of it he has resigned his position in the
company. His reason for so doing is to
take charge of the Stewart House, which
has hitherto been run by Mr.. M. F.
Thompson, and it is only to be supposed
that he expects to make more than the
$4,000 per annum that he received from
the Southern Pacific.

The quality of our ice is superior to nat
ural ice in purity. The water of which it is
made is taken from a deep driven well, is
first boiled, then filtered, and thus is abso-
lutely free from all impurities. It is frozen
evenly and solid, and will last 25 per cent.
longer than natural ice. Actual tests will
always prove this, and scientific men have
long ago demonstrated and now admit IL.
We are now prepared to furnish resi-
denCes, and on application by postal card or
otherwise, our canvasser will visit and ar
range for delivery, 1t should be generally
taken, so we can have paying routes By

constitution, Matthew Lyon, of New
Hampshire, was fined $1,000 and
cast into prison for speaking of AID
ans oral message to congress as
"the kings speech from the throne. J"
This is only one of many similar
outrages, and the democratic party
was so incensed that it elected Lyon
to congress while he was still in Jail
serving his term AS late as 1910
congress refunded to the heirs of
Lyon the $1,000 paid ON his fine,
with interest. The sedition laws
were repealed under Jefferson, and
congress forever stamped its dissap,
proval of any laws tending in any
wise to abridge the liberties of the
press. Mr.. Grain struck a popular
chord in his timely speech, and has
won for himself national reputa-
ton.

CHAMPION OF THE PRESS.

Although Congressman Grain is
somewhat erratic at times, and did
not add much to his popularity nor
to his reputation as statesman by
the recent stand taken in his letter
with reference to the tariff on wool,
it must be admitted that since he has
been a member of congress he has
added as much to his reputation and
to that of the state as any member
of the Texas delegation, and Yields
as much OF more infuence-not only
in congress on the floor of the
House, but with the president him
self, although he is the youngest
man in the delegation. Grain is a
man that is not content to occupy
mere passive position, contenting
himself simply with guarding the
interests of his own state and of his
own constituency. He takes a deep
interest in the general affairs of
the government, and is not at all
timid or backward about launching
forth in the arguments on all ques >,
tons of public and national impor-
tance. He doesn't wait for the ayes
and noes to be called before it can be
ascertained where he stands. The
latest role in which he appears be-
fore the public is as the champion of
the liberties of the press. An effort
was made to exercise congressional
control over the policy of newspa-
pers published in the District of
Columbia, if the BANNER is correctly
impressed, and to control and die
tate the line of advertising and
policy of the press that might be-
come the recipients of federal pat
ronage. The complete liberty of
the press is guaranteed by the con-
stitution, and anyone who is familiar
with history will recognize the wis
dom of such a safeguard. Under
the sedition laws passed at the very
beginning of our government, in
violation of the plain letter of the

AN UNJUST CHARGE.

The Galveston News is one OF
those papers that lends too ready an
ear to the rumors in regard to the
internal discussions alleged to exist
in the democratic party of New York
State; and, taking the situation as
being in the worst light depicted by
the enemies of the president, pro-
ceeds to arraign the democratic par
ty as being altogether corrupt and
selfish, as being run by machine
of which Gov. Hill is the head, and
as being controlled by the ward
bosses in New York City. The News
saws that, patriotism with them 1.-THE
democrats of New York City is
synonymous with plumber" This
imputation could be much more fit
tingly bestowed upon the democrats
of Galveston than upon the demo-
Gratis of New York; for to the square
inch and according to population
there is more political shystering go
ing on in the Island City, and the
politics of that city and Galveston
island is more in the hands of ward
bummers, ward strikers and ward
manipulators than in any other city,
possibly, in the the United States.
The democratic politicians of Gal
weston are responsible for the
slaughter of their candidate for con-
gross few years ago and for the
election of that champion liar and
notorious dead beat, Tom Ochiltree,
because of a stronger influence he
was supposed to exert with repub-
lican administration in favor of Gal
weston. The masses of the democ-
racy of New York City have been
true to the interests of
The party, Notwithstanding the fact
hat in a city of such size and of
such Importance in political cam
oaigns, corruption is bound to exist
20 a less or greater extent The
New Workers are more cosmopolitan,
ess selfish and, more patriotic than
anywhere in the United States.
The New York democracy remained
rue in feeling and sympathy with
he South during the bitter struggle
or constitutional rights, and when
Sherman in his march to the sea-
'oard set fire to, laid waste and
impoverished and devastated the
air southern land to such and eX-
emit that, as has been aptly said, a
row could not fly across the coun- i
ry without taking its provisions
long with it, the patriotic and gen ,
rous people OF New York contribut-
d money and provisions to the suf- {
sring people of Savannah and
charleston, who were left starving =

NOWADAYS a statesman cannot
take ground against any proposed
Ubiquitous measure (such as the
Blair bilD from a constitutional
standpoint, without being sneered
at by smart Alecks as a "consti-
tootional" statesman. If these pop
iniays would but study the constitu-
ton and see how reckless and ut
ter disregard of it brought on the
civil war and other evils to this
country, they would, if they were
capable of a thimbleful of sense,
have a little more regard for that

NATIONAL BANKING.

The great ana glorious old repub
lican party o. past "reminiscences
which is without single lofty act o.
patriotism or of wisdom to recon-
mend it, is wont, when challenged
to cite an instance of any last
ing good secured by it when in pow
er, to refer to the abolition of slave
ry in the South and to the establish.
ment of the national banking system
These, however, were both wal
measures. However far-reachine
may be the good results of freeing
the negroes land no sensible man
will deny that it was blessing both
to the master and slave, and that the
relation was bound to be dissolved
sooner or later) the republicans de-
serve only eternal condemnation on
that score for the way in which it
was brought about. AS to the ma
tional banking system, it was another
war measure made use of to enable
the administration to secure funds
from the capitalists and money-lend-
ers for the prosecution of the war,
and should have been abolished as
the necessity creating it ceased.
Salmon P. Chase, himself the author
of the system while in charge of the
treasury portfolio in President Lin
coins Cabinet, admitted just before
his death, according to the Cincin-
natl Enquirer, that this was the
greatest mistake of his life, and pre-
dicted that great danger in future
would come upon the country from
this source. The reason that the
system has not long ago been repeal
ed is because the interest is so pow
erfnlly represented in congress, and
even in the presidents cabinet. Re
Gently Hon. Beriah Wilkins, of Ohio,
who is chairman of the committee
on Banking and Currency, introduc-
ed bill into congress authorizing
the banks to increase their circula-
lion ten per cent-that is, to give up
the reserve held to secure the re-
iemption of the bonds, and to make
The circulation equal to the par value
Of the bonds pledged. The Enquirer
n its very able leader denies the
necessity for an increase of bank cir
denounces it as purely q |
Measure for private profit, comforting |
lpon corporations more complete
control over the volume of currency,
nd granting to money-lenders dis
'retionary powers to determine the
question so vital to the interests of
abor, trade and commerce, which
hould be the exclusive prerogative
# congress. It says: eff more
money is needed, Congress should
'royide for the unlimited coinage of
9th gold and silver, the issue of
DIN certificates and treasury notes,
nd not leave the people to the ten
er mercies and kindly offices of
indicate of usurers." The BANNER
onfesses that it is not initiated into
Ii the intricacies, mysteries and
omplex issues arising out of the
of the question of
but believes to the best of 1
S knowledge that next to the in
Lmous robber tariff the national {
