SUNDAY, JANUARY go, 1883.

The murderer of Mr.. and Mrs.
Hitchcock has confessed his crime,
and this sets all doubts at rest as to
his guilt. His confession comports
with the rational theory which every
body had formed about the crime and
its guilty author. Indeed, Anschlag
had concocted his plan and car
ried it out in such manner
that the circumstances themselves
were an unerring index to the
main facts of the entire tragedy.
Whilst he thought he was shrewd and
cunning, he left trail that even dull
ness itself could follow. 1t was hardly
necessary that he should have con-
fessed, for every circumstantial detail
that came to light, including his own
shallow declarations, were "confirma-
tions strong as proof of holy writ"
OF his guilt. He was surrounded by a
wall OF facts, all leading to the door
of truth, from which there was no
escape. His confession is even yet
wanting in verify in some minor and
incidental points; but there is no
doubt that his declaration exculpating
Decker from all connection with the
crime is true. This makes us doubly
thankful that the lynching threats at
Anaheim we're not successful. Had
they been carried out an innocent
man, as we'll as the murderer, might
have fallen a victim to the fury OF the
exasperated mob.

IN II. DIERKER, Treasure
Then and Now.

Editors HERALD: Fourteen years
ago 1 visited Los Angeles, then an
original Mexican town of adobe
houses with goodly sprinkling OF
Americans and their improvements !;
but quiet and listless country town.
What is my surprise in visiting here
now! Lind one of the most thriving
cities in America-beautiful build
ings, elegant homes, the pink of fash
ion, and streets filed with people from
the four quarters of the globe.
l strolled to the Santa Fe Depot,
along the river, and returning through
the Wolfskill orchard tract, a place
that then filed me with wonder and
delight. Trees by the thousand,
filled with golden oranges, inter
spersed with most beautiful orange
blossoms, s,-enough bridal wreaths for
New York City marriages for a year.
Then it was beautiful. Now what a
change! The trees cut down to make
streets; men at work building stone
cement sidewalks; horse rail cars
running through its entire length;
new street railroads through Fourth
and Fifth street; surveyors working
everywhere, and, not least, an i'm
mense structure under way for the
Southern Pacific Railroad Company's
depot, with twenty-six carloads OF
material from their shops in Oakland
and Sacramento and everything on
the rush, making it the liveliest por-
tion OF Los Angeles City. All OF the
pueblo's beauty is passing away with
this tide of improvement. Only a
few spots are left to remind one of the
former Los Angeles, and in few
years we will not know the place that
we visited with so much pleasure
fourteen years ago.
A NEW YORKER.

crop of all sorts of products. There is
plowing to do, orchards to put in trim,
new ones to set with young trees, vine
yards to clean, weeds to keep down,
and all the thousand and one things
which keep the farmer awake all
through the spring and summer.
In some instances recourse has been
had to the East for a supply of good
farm laborers. The new immigration
has been mostly of men with means,
who have set enterprises in motion
which draw ON the stock of labor
already here. There is but small
increment made to the supply by the
newcomers. The South has been
looked to for supply OF negro labor
ers, and some of these people have
come here already. Good, steady
farm hands will be in active demand
in this State from this time on; and
there is no possible combination now
in sight which will bring us anything
like an adequate supply of this neces-
sary element to our future progress.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1888-01-29

SOME of us allow the false notion to
take possession of our minds that real
property is uncommonly high in this
part of the world. 1t would seem
that property in this eclectic section
OF the greatest nation on earth would
be worth more than that in out of the
way corners Of the globe. The pro-
mise of this nations growth is certain
and it is brilliant. There are over
60,000,000 of us now. We are
growing more numerous at no
slow pace. Of all parts of the
American Union this is destined
to be the most densely peopled spot.
New Zealand is a remote and crude
colony. We do not mean remote
from our standpoint merely. That
island of the antipodes is remote
from every place. Auckland is city
OF about the same population as Los
Angeles, and it is the largest place in
New Zealand. A copy of the Herald,
published at Auckland fell under our
eye the other day. Here are two of
long list of advertisements of real
property found in its columns:
Five acres excellent volcanic land,
situated in the Epson District, all
we'll fenced. Price, only 5000.
Pretty suburban villa residence, to-
gether with four acres rich volcanic
land, in good cultivation house con-
tains seven rooms. There is also a
good stable and buggy house. Price,
only ESQ.
The first bit of unimproved land is
held at 5000 per acre. The second
little residence comes to lump sum
of 1880. Now, land can be had near
this city for 5000 an acre. And one
can get little suburban home for
$500 to $4,000. Los Angeles, remem-
ber, has the United States at its
back. New Zealand has nothing but
its own comparatively paltry self.

Mr.. JOSEPH PULITZER, editor of the

MR.. JOSEPH PULITZER, editor of the
New York World, passed north by the
Southern Pacific train yesterday after
noon. The party will go to Monterey
for short time. Mr.. Pulitzer's eyes
do not impro thus far, and he is still
deprived of the use of them. His
own health is not the only motive for
his visit to the coast. His eldest
child, q boy eight years old, is suffer-
ing from asthma, and that fact had
much to do with the journey
to the coast. Should Monterey
and the central part of the State
not prove beneficial to the child, Los
Angeles will be re-sought for the sake
of the child's health. Whatever may
be the effect of our climate on the
fathers eyes, there is no room for
any doubt that the sons health would
be much improved by the dry, Gear
air of this section. 1t is most earn
estly hoped that Mr.. Pulitzer anI his
child may find speedy relief. I.

TIE Santa Fe Railroad Company

The Santa Fe Railroad Company
have just done truly patriotic thing
Listening to the loud complaint here
about the enormous price of fuel,
they have brought in train of coal
from the Gallup Mine in New Mexico,
which they will sell in limited
quantities to consumers by the
sack, at IS cents per sack,
or at the rate of SIS per ton. The
local dealers have been charging sos
per ton. More will follow. There
will be forty cars mall. This arrival
will bring fuel down to about its norm
al price, and enable our people to
keep their houses warm with
out going into bankruptcy. The
credit of this very opportune
relief is due to Don A.
Sweet, the Assistant General Mana
ger of the Santa Fe system, who came
here on visit, saw the difficulties
under which our people were suffer-
ing for the want of fuel at reasonable
cost, and telegraphed to G. w. Smith,
Vice President of the road, who, on
MIR. Sweets representation, ordered
the supply which will reach here to-
dav.

THE HEALTH OFFICER.
Elect a Good Physician at Once
for the Place.

for the Place.
The need of a good health officer
for the city is pressing. The Board OF
Health should at once proceed to
give this city good man to fill the
place, and there is no use Of being
mealy-mouthed about this, let him
be Democrat. The HERALD is not
a whit backward in proclaiming its
belief in the matter. The Board is
ours, and the query is pertinent
"What are we here for?" If
any one wishes to attack this position
it is quite competent to say it is per-
fectly decent position, but that of
Republican applicants is not decent.
The one idea left many of that politi-
cal camp is that OF holding on to any
bit of political pap there may be.
We asked nothing of them when they
controlled the city government. 1t is
noticeable they put their own political
con freres there every time. The Democ-
racy only claims the same privilege.
Some superserviceable partisan writes
to an esteemed contemporary a
plea for the reelection of the present
amiable occupant of the Office. He
goes out of his way to cast unworthy
aspersions on the Democrats who de-
sire the place. The writer of that
miserable begging for the lucre OF
Office in favor of rich man, does not
know what he is talking of. He does
not know Dr. Orme, physician who
has been here 20 years, and who always
has had an excellent prac-ice AS for
DR.. Reese, a comparatively new man
here, the following letter from his for
mer home in Illinois will clearly ndi-
cate the esteem in which he was held
there:
