and Eastern Kansas.
ATCHIsoN, Kan, November 9.-The
most phenomenal snow storm that ever
occurred in Northern Kansas began this
morning and has continued furiously all
day. Trains are delayed and telegraph
wires ere Frustrated in all directions,
with the exception of one line to Kansas
City. In Atchison over 200 telephone
wires are 80 broken and tangled up with
electric light wires that the electric light
works has been suspended to prevent &C.
cidents. The storm is the heaviest tina,
has occurred at any season of the veal
since 1873. The extent of the damage
cannot be ascertained, owing to the sus
pension of telegraphic communication.

SAN DIEGO, November 9.-Sef1or Facio,
Special Inspector of Colonies for the
Mexican Government. who was sent to
Lower California some time ago to report
on the extensive contract and concessions
to the International Company of Mexico,
in his report made public October 25th,
ana which has just been received
here, claims that the company has
not fulfilled the terms of the con-
cession in regard to the settlement
of lands; that large tracts are sold to for
eign spectators, not to settlers; that
most of the colonists are foreigners, not
Mexicans, and that the company appro-
priated and sold lands of private individ-
uals. He recommends the lands con-
coded to the company to become public
public lands, and that all the moneys
paid on improvements made thereon be
forfeited to the Mexican Government.

THE Democrats made good deal of
noise last night, but they seemed to have
very confused idea of what they were
yelling for. However, they exercised
their lungs, and considerable amount
of money was put into circulation among
the liquor dealers.-[Los Angeles Times.
We had been under the impression,
until we encountered the foregoing para
graph from our esteemed morning con-
temporary, that the Democrats Saturday
evening were acelaiming Cleveland and
Thurman. We have yet failed to see
any evidence that they shouted for free
whisky, which is what our Republican
friends seem to think great desidera-
tum in order to keep up the tariff on the
necessaries of life. Probably when a
Democrat felt thirsty Saturday he took
glass of the wine or beer which are
products of California. If our memory
serves us right, whisky straight, even
with the tax on, was the clamorous de-
mand on the occasion of the feeble Re-
publican demonstration in honor of the
nomination of Harrison and Morton.
Ii there was ever more sober, enthusi-
astic or earnest outpouring of voters in
the history of Los Angeles county than
that which was fully reported in the
HERALD's columns Sunday morning our
memory fails to serve us with the details.

SAN Francisco, July 15.-To-day was
truly day OF rest to the members of the
National Educational Convention. All
visitors were domiciled and there was no
convention work done except by the local
committee who were busy perfecting
their arrangements for the arduous work
of the coming week. The Ohio delegation
SO strong, arrived this afternoon, accom-
panied by small parties from other States,
some coming from Virginia, Nevada, In
diana, Nebraska and Utah. The weather
was unusually warm and sultry.
The headquarters to-day of the Ma

but those of the Local Executive Com
mite, Press and State headquarters were
open. The following visiting journalists
registered at press headquarters in the

A SLICK SWINDLER. =
HO w He Fleeccd the lambs of WALL
Street.

New YORK. July 15.-Richard Stone,
alias Frederic Livock, a handsome and
adroit swindler, who has feeced several
Wall street brokers, has been run down
by Inspector Byrnes. He recently came
from Philadelphia, where he lived at y
502 Walnut street, and it is feared he has
played a similar game on the brokers in
that city. He called on President Will
liams, of the Northern Pacific railroad,
and said he had just arrived from Eng
land with $125, 900, part of which he de-
sired to put in preferred stock OF thatroad..
Williams said he did not do stock brok-
erage but gave him g. note to Gold, Bar
bour & Corning, of 1S Wall street, who
on the strength of the note received him
with open arms. They purchased 5000
shares for him at 541a. 1t fell and as,
the margin was not covered, they sold.
Meanwhile Stone went to Tewksbury &
Co. and said he had this stock at the
Office of Gold, Barbour & Corning for
sale. Not fearing any difficulty about
delivery they sold it on advance at 545s6.
They will have 10 purchase this stock
elsewhere for delivery. He was then
learned to be swindler and was ar
rested. Decker, Howell & Co., Harvey,
Fisk & Co. and Whittenham & Co. are
among his other victims.

STATEMENTS are publishe by the San
Francisco Produce Exchange showing
that there were on July 1st 1881 800
centals Of old wheat in the warehouses
of California. There we're also seventy
one thousand nine hundred and twenty
barrels OF -four in store, which if reduced
to wheat and added to the above figures
would swell the stock of that cereal to
4.097 ,720 centals. The total production
of the State for the harvest of 1887 is set
down at $4,000 to $4,000 short tons,
or about 100000 centals. Reduced
to bushels of sixty pounds weight,
the Eastern method of measuring wheat,
would give us close to $1,000, 900 bushels.
The surplus Of the State available for ex-
port is set at about 11,0O0O0 centals.
Those who think Los Angeles county
produces oranges and other fruits but fails
in the more prosaic programme Of wheat
and the other cereals, are much in error.
Los Angeles ranks among the first of
wheat producing counties, and is the
banner county of the State in corn. She
also ranks very high as barley -produc-
ing section.

PEOPLE who have no interest at stake
in the tariff matter affect a great deal
more concern about it than do the people
directly interested. A multitude of peo-
pie who never planted a vine, nor cured a
grape, foresee dire disaster 10 this indus
try in the passage of the Mills bill. A.
B. Butler, of Fresno, is the largest raisin
grower in the world; but he is mem
ber of the Democratic State Central
Committee, and says his industry is too
profitable to be disastrously affected by
the the taking taking eff CT fourth CT the pro
tective tariff. Wool-growing is another
industry which men who do not know a
sheep from goat are shedding crocodile
tears over. G. W. Mordecai is one
of the largest wool growers in
California. He is candidate for the
State assembly on the Democratic ticket,
and says the abolition of the duty on
wool will be benefit to his interests, by
quickening manufacturing by means OF
imported raw material not of the same
grade as his clips. He is followed in
this judgment by most of the large wool
growers OF Fresno, who are nearly all en-
thusiastic Democrats.

DIsMIssING all speculative politics the
importance OF California in determining
the result of the current Presidential
election will magnify as the campaign
progresses. With the States certain to
go Democratic we shall only need either
California or Connecticut to win. Saga.
cious party leaders, appreciating this
fact, will concentrate much attention on
these two States. Of course Indiana will
not be neglected, nor will Illinois or
Michigan, Or Wisconsin, CT Minnesota,
all of which, in addition to New York,
New Jersey, Connecticut and California,
are liable to go Democratic. But for
practical political purposes the best
plan is to give each of the
Presidential candidates his own
State, put New Jersey in the
Democratic column from which she nev-
er swerves, and then root around for the
three additional electoral votes needed
to elect Cleveland and Thurman. They
can be had in Connecticut or California,
with an overplus, and they can be had
to the exact nick in Nevada or Colorado.
The fact that Connecticut or California
will do the business, with something to
spare, cannot fail to make them specially
interesting localities this fall from a
political point of view.

THE fact that the graud stand of the
Republican party is erected on the va
cant lot adjoining the HERALD office has
created the quite general impression that
this journal owns the effete representa-
ton in Los Angeles County of the grand
old party. This is mistake. We are
not hunting the proprietorship of defunct
affairs. The truth is that the Republican
party has endeavcred to borrow little re-
flected responsibility by iamming its office
against our building. Woodson's little
game won't work. The platform has
shown several signs of going off
by spontaneous combustion, and
HERALD Office employees with
political good samaritanism which
cannot he too much praised, have extin-
guished the flames, but the situation is
really too critical for comfort. Our fire
insurance rates are likely to go up; then,
in addition, the whole paraphernalia,l like
the party itself in both the State and
Nation, is liable to go up the spout.
When fished out from our plum bing ap-
pointments its general dilapidation
which is merely sympathetic with that OF
the party at large, will be ascribed to our
malice. Why not take it away and erect
it against some Chinese washhouse,
where it would be piously guarded by
the Mongolian supporters of All Ben
Harrison?

Let u, Ser our stakes nigh.

Since the grand Democratic demonstra-
tions of Saturday night there is not the
same confidence in the local outcome
which had prevailed amongst our Repub-
lican fellow citizens prior to that tidal
wave, epochal manifestation. The fact
is that our Republican men and brethren
have begun to adopt the idea that some
things can be done as we'll as others. 1t
is solid truth that this community is
pervaded by strong, dynamic Demo
cratic impulse, and this is also true of
every township in the length and breadth
of the United States. The most interest
ing feature of the Democratic parade
Saturday night was the turnout of the
German-American club. 1t embraced
even in its marching membership the
solid respectability, character and signif-
canoe of the Teutonic population of this
city. This element is even more pro-
nouncedly Democratic than it was in
1882, when its detection from the Repub-
lican party, on the sumptuary law issue,
gave us the election in California by an
unprecedented majority. There are
three encouraging circumstances in Cali
fornia this year. They are (l) Blaine is
not running; (2) the Irish have come
back, which is a corollary to the former
position; (3) the Germans are absolutely
solid in their support of the Democratic
party, and their reputation of the
sumptuary law plank of the Chicago
National platform.
Not only have the Germans come over
to us en- mcsse in California, but they
have done SO throughout the whole
United States. In all its tables as
to electoral majorities the HERALD
has been very prudent, thinking it better
that in positive estimates extreme eau
ton should be used; but, as matter ot
fact, the wholesale German detection
from the Republican party seriously
menaces the ascendancy of that party in
Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin and Mime
sofa. In addition, Harrison's identified
ton with the gold-bugs very gravely
threatens his chances OF winning in botl
Nevada and Colorado, both pronounced
silver States.
Since the demonstration of Saturday
night, our friend the enemy-viz., thu
Republican party-has awakened to th'
fact that it has tremendous task before
it. The Los Angeles Democracy
reinforced on all hands, may al
most be relied upon to redeem
this county from its quite recent Repub
lican affiliations. Assisted by strong
local ticket, we do not see why this can
not be done. In 1886 the Republican
State Central Committee claimed this
county by twenty-five hundred majority
1t was reduced to 293 on the Congress
sional ticket and to less than 600 on
Bartlett for Governor. Let us set our
stakes high and aim to make clean
sweep in this year of grace 1888.
