THE cry of "stop thief" always
calls for the exercise of some careful
disc rimination. The light-fngered
gentry ages ago learned that the best
way to escape is often found in the
midst of the pursuers and joining in
the hue and cry. The attenuated and
diaph anous policy of our esteemed
Republican contemporary in report
ing an alleged attempt to corrupt
those patriotic Republican office-hold-
ers in charge of registration in this
ci y, looks much like case in point.
That the registration Of voters can be
50 ma nipulated by our friends
as to rebound to the greatest
good of the greatest number-fiom a
purely party standpoint-in this
county, we know too we'll.
That the best use will be made
of the registration bureaus-from the
sam e high and patriotic standpoint
we need not doubt. Is this the
fire beneath so thin a smoke Of al
legged corruptive attempts ? Watch
and see!

THE BELL.WELLS LIBEL
To be Taken 10. higher Tour,
I'm Appeal.


Major Horace Bells, libel suit
against Col. G. Wiley Wells, again
engrossed the attention Of Justice
Taney's court yesterday to consider
able extent. At the opening of the
morning session, the Court overruled
the demurrer, and at the request of
the counsel for the defense the case
was continued till IL o'clock in order
to give time to take out writ of ha.
beas co pus. The matter, however
went by default as the defendant was
not in the hands Of the Sheriff. Major
Bell hen came forward and asserted
that he was the plaintiff in this case
and rehearsed his grievance, stating
how the defendant Col. G.. Wiley
Wells, in company with A. M. Thorn
ton, did on the 23rd OF February last.
cause the distribution OF a pamphlet
entitled "The Life of Horace Bell" in
which plaintiff was grievously libel
led. At the 2 O'Clock session Attor-
ney Stephens raised question as to
the jurisdiction of the presiding Judge,
it being alleged that more than one
year had elapsed since the filing of
the complaint, defendant having been
absent from the State at the time the
papers should have been legally
served, and that three months must
elapse after his return before the pa
pers can again be legally served.
Pending the decision of this point by
the Superior Court, the action was
adjourned and eset for hearing sew
eral weeks hence.

A FEW years ago the San Jacinto
Valley in San Diego county, was al
most an unknown land. There were
hardly dozen people in this. section
who thought it of much value or capa-
BILE of being made much of. To-day
it is the center of a large population.
Improvements OF many kinds are be-
ing pushed along with much vigor,
and there is promise that one of the
most fourishing communities in
Southern California will be in San Ja-
cinto. There are 5000 acres OF
grain in the ground this
season. Many fine orchards have
been planted which are in u
most thrifty condition. The railroad
from Perris is nearly finished; nine
miles of tract is laid, all the grading
is done, and by the first of May it is
expected that the neighing OF the
great iron horse will ring through
every nook Of the valley. A big ex-
cursi ion to open the road is on the
programme. and then We can all see
for ourselves how rapid the march of
improvement is in this part Of the
semi-tropics.

The San Jose Herald, in a recent
issue, takes the railroad shipments
from points in this State to the East
as given by the Southern Pacific Com
pany, as text on which to preach a
pretty little sermon upon the pros
perity of its section. San Jose is a
ch arming spot, rich in many resources
and with very alluring attractions to
the home-seeker and settler. She is
quite deserving. of all the prosperity
she enjoys, and will, with each revolv-
ing year, find her productions more
sought for in Eastern markets,
and her Golfers filed to a
point nearer overfowing from the
large returns they will draw back.
We endorse every suggestion as to
our fair sister of the central plain
every one but one. Our esteemed
contemporary Of the Garden City
wanders from strict construction OF
his text to DEPRESSION as unfounded
as it is unwarranted when he insti-
tutes comparison-odious, of course
lin which he seeks to show his city
ships more goods t, the East than Los
Angeles does. The Herald says:
San Jose begins the year auspi-
ciously. During the first three
months of the present year the guam
tity of overland freight shipped from
this city eqnaled the combined ship
ments of Sacramento and Oakland,
and was almost as much as the total
shipments from both Los Angeles and

ton of allegations and innuendoes-
but with nothing relevant to the matter
in hand, and with not fact. Things

Mr.. Tarpey was a mere boy, and in
which he was in no way concerned.
What has he to do with this? One of
the propiietors of this paper is ap-

A writer in one of our French pa
pers, L'Union Nouelle, discusses the
question of sewerage in a manner SO
pra actical and unusual that We are
quite taken with his views. He says
the very first thing the city ought to
do would be 10 secure proper outfall
for the drainage Of this city. That
once accomplished, the local sewerage
becomes a mere matter Of connecting
the lateral streets with the main sewer
or its branches. The outfall Of this city
would lead naturally to the ocean.
Ballona creek would serve as a natural
canal, but to carry our sewage to
that creek might lead tocomplications,
- parties living along its line have a
right to its waters. and could prevent
us from cor1uptipg them. Therefore
We would be obliged to adopt the
sea for the deborchure of any canal
we might construct. The fall from
this city to the ocean is three hundred
ieet-eighteen feet to the mile-ample
to carry our drainage rapidly away, and
to render flushing from our reservoirs
effective. 1t is not necessary
that this outlet-sewer should be
an expensive work Of masonry. A
mere canal, or zaDia, such as we used
TO have here, would subserve every
purpose. At points it might be
necessary to cover it, to keep the
effiuvia from spreading in the settled
neighborhoods through which it
would pass. But all this would be
inexpensive. The city should at once
get the right of way, either by con-
demnation or by consent of
the owners. Then, with a large
force of men, the canal could
be cut from the present outiall at the
edge of the city to the ocean in the
vicinity of Ballona harbor. 1t would
not be very costly work, nor would
it consume many days in order to
finish it. The ocean outlet once
secured, whatever we shall then
do in the city in the shape
of substantial sewer work will
be as effective as it will
be lasting. Now is not the time to
talk about the value Of the sewage we
shall convey to the ocean. But it
will not be long before cultivators
along the line of this canal will be
willing to pay quite a bonus to the
city for the privilege Of taking out the
sewage so as to spread it over their
lands.

THERE is, as the matter stands now,
on the very threshold Of the National
campaign, a very pretty fght-a fac
tional one-in the camp Of our es-
teemed Republican contemporaries.
The appearance Of new morning pa
per on the scene OF action here couple
of years ago, was taken by certain
me mbers of that political family very
much as new addition to any family
is taken by whathad been the baby
of the household. Someone felt his
nose likely to be put out of joint. The
family quarrel in the late campaigns
were bitter, as such disagreements
usually are. 1t has seemed for some
time past as if the tomahawk and
scalping knife had both been laid to
rest; but that evidently was a
mistake. Mr.. Boyce still lives
yes, and has pretty numerous
following. He is a politician-spell
the word as you will. His is figure
which will not down at the Republi-
can lovefeast; and Banquo's CORY
locks never APPALLED, the heart of guilt
shaken Macbeth more terribly than
does the figure of the genial Colonel
DISTURB the mind Of certain of his po-
litical and journalistic brethren. The
question is which will yield
the field? Will this political
Banquo hence and quit the
sight of those whom he So much dis
quiets, or will he break up the meeting
in most admired disorder? Sit at
the same board the two factions will
not.

The Boston Commercial Bulletin says that
a close combination of the twenty I've nail
manufacturers, employing 1900 machines,
in New England, New York, New Jersey,
Eastern Pennsylvania, Maryland and Viz
ginia, has been formed. At q private
meeting held in New York, on Thursday,
thirteen Of the manufacturers signed an
agreement 10 cut down production about
forty per cent, and the remaining twelve
were expected to sign by Saturday. Each
concern will pay into the pool 5000 to be
forfeited in case 1t exceeds its restricted
production. Prices have already been
slightly advanced. It is claimed that the
trade has suffered from over production
for some years. The members Of the pool
expect the Western manufacturers to fol-
low their example. Gen. PowelVs pet
project may yet be realized.
