that he has based his proceedings upon
the monitions of that moral sensitive
plant. Stuff and nonsense Mr.. Mason
has assessed property of equivalent value,
and on opposite sides of the same street,
by standards varying more than
a hundred per cent. The HERALD
gave an instance, the other
day, of his assessing thousand acres OF
land belonging to Mr.. G. F. Bixby at
less than it was assessed by Mr.. Venable
six years ago and at about one-half OF
what it was assessed for by Mr.. Bilder-
rain in 1884. The other day the Board
of Supervisors. sitting as a Board OF
Equalization, doubled this assessment.
This is but one instance of many that
could be given. 1t is mere specimen

Board with view of raising assessments
are nearly all addressed to rich men,
who have been assessed, for reasons
which Mr.. Mason could perhaps best ex'

which have been applied to their poorer
neighbors.

The Prohibition party of Los Angeles
county bids fair this year to make a
memorable record for itself. The meet
ings held under its auspices are large and
enthusiastic and earnest to degree
never heretofore known in the history OF
that organization in Southern California
As between the Prohibitionists and the
Republicans it is another case of Cortez
burning his ships. The teetotalers are
determined to make total and, to en-
ploy happy phrase of one of the illit-
erati, ''teetotacious'' capture of the
machinery of the Republican party, or to
blow it higher than Gilderoy's kite. There
is nothing of vaporing in their claims to
holding the balance Of power either in
the State. National or local contest. In
the latter this is especially true that
they hold this balance. Their claim to
be able to poll twenty five hundred votes
in Los Angeles county this year seems
to be perfectly we'll founded. There is
no chance of the figures going below two
thousand. AS seven-eighths of these
voters formerly acted with the Republi.
can party the significance of their defec-
ton and the strength of their position
are apparent to the most prejudiced
mind. The Prohibitionists are power
they know it and such meetings as that
Of Saturday night prove it. The colored
orator, the Rev. Mr.. Hector, and the
Roman Catholic Priest, the Rev. Father
Nunan, are both doing woik of grea
efficacy in knocking the Republican
party out of it's double-dealirg sense o
security. The Rev. Hector exposition
of how little the colored men owe to tn,
Republican party was masterpiece o
forcible, argumentative presentation
The good work goes bravely on. ~y

THE circulation of the HERALD has
been increasing of late at phenomenal
rate, which shows the interest the people
take in fair, calm and honest discussion
of our current politics. In the presenta-
ton of the great issues that will deter
mine the result of the coming Presiden-
tial election-which have already deter
mined it in the interest of Cleveland and
Thurman-we are determined that this
journal shall maintain the splendid
status it has always held as leading
exponent of Democratic principles. The
Democratic party is the party OF the past,
the present and the future, and the

sentative. Itought to be in every house

WASHINGTON, July 29.-The Sundry
Civil bill will probably occupy the atten-
ton of the Senate tomorrow. 1t is
Senator Fry's purpose to ask that the
Fisheries treaty be taken up for continu-
GUS debate until disposed of after the
Sundry Civil bill is passed. The bill for
the admission of Washington Territory,
and the bill to encourage the holding OF
National Industrial Exposition of Arts.
Mechanics, and products of the colored
race, will be brought forward for consid-
Grafton. It is now thought to be doubt
full whether the Tariff bill will make it's
appearance in the Senate this week.
The General Deficiency Appropriation
bill is likely to occupy the attention of the
House several days this week. After the
bill providing for the payment of French
spoliation claims is disposed of, Sayers
will endeayor to secure consideration for
the Notifications appropriation bill. AS
the Senate amendments to the Army Ap-
preparation bill cover nearly the same
ground, it is expected the Committee on
Military Affairs will antagonize the Forti-
fications bill and try to have their bill
first acted upon, with view to throwing
it into conference and ultimately adopt
ing the Senate plan of defense. 1t would
appear that whatever time remains after
disposition of the Deficiency bill, will be
consumed in discussion of the subject of
Notifications.

OBsTREPEROUS REDSKINS.
GerOnimO's Old Tribe Threatening
Fresh DeYiltrY.

Tucson. Ariz., July PA general
feeling of restlessness and insubordina-
ton has existed among the Indians at
the San Carlos reservation for some
months, but open hostilities had been
avoided in every way possible by the
military officials until within few days
past, when several Indians committed
offenses necessitating their arrest. The
attempt to arrest them has caused gen.
eral uprising among them and they
defy the officials and threaten to leave
the reservation. 1t is expected that
they will go south, raiding the settle
ments along the San Pedro river and will
endeavor to reach the Sierra Madre
mountains. Their old rendezvous, the
Santa Catalina mountains, have been
thoroughly secuted by Captain Wint
and Lieutenant Malone within the last
month, from Fort Lowell, to familiarize
themselves with every trail, anticipating
an emergency like this. General alarm
exists among the ranchers and stockmen
on the San Pedro river. Most of the
trouble is anticipated from the Chihuahua
Apaches, Geronimo's tribe.

Hon. FRANK 7. REED, who so nearly
carried Tennessee four years ago as the
Republican candidate for Governor, is
out for Cleveland and Thurman, being
impelled to change his political allegi-
ance by the surrender, by his own party,
of its hypocritical professions of devotion
to tariff reform. There is no doubt but
that the issue raised by Mr.. Cleveland in
his celebrated message of the 9th of No
vember last has changed the political
affiliations of many honest, well inten-
toned citizens of the United States. In
our opinion there is equally little doubt
that the overwhelming percentage of
change is in favor of the Democratic
party.

CHICAGO, July 29.-The police have
succeeded in capturing 16-year old rob.
Der whose achievements in the horse
stealing line are unparalleled in this part
Of the country. His name is given as
Edward Brown, and he claims to have
come from Kendall county, Texas, about
the 9th of June. He soon formed the
acquaintance of Charles Crane, aged 10,
and also hailing from Texas. Brown
proposed that they 60 into the horse
stealing business. A barn was rented
on the west side of the city. Nightly
forages were begun and were successful.
In lees time than twenty-four hours after
they started they had stolen five
horses and sold three of them for
liberal prices. The boldness of their
deeds was remarkable. Their stable be-
came full of valuable horses and citizens
began to frequent the stable for the pur-
pose of buying stock. The business
prospered exceedingly. All the time
complaints were coming into the police
thick and fast, but they could not find
the thieves. July 18th, however, was a
fatal day for the adventurers. They
stole horse and buggy from north side
citizen and drove to blacksmith shop
near by to have slight repairs made.
While waiting, one Of them stole the
blacksmith's watch and was soon
accused of the theft. Both
drew revolvers and compelled the
blacksmith to apologize for the charge.
AS soon as the boys had left Smith com.
planned at the Lake View police station,
giving description of the bandits. A
detective was detailed on the case. He
was about to give up the search in the
early part of last week. when he saw the
boys driving on West Washington boule.
ward. He secured horse, followed them
to their barn and shadowed the place TO,
three or four days. Crane became sus
picious of espionage and fled, but Brown
was arrested. On his person was found
fonr hundred dollars in cash; twenty-five
horses and eighteen stolen vehicles have
already turned up, and more are coming
in every day. The horses are uniformly
fine, and the vehicles range from dos
cart to four-in.hand.

which occurred while l was hold

nificant of the campaign and the result.
The Springfield Republican epitomizes
the Republican platform in the following
very succinct and condensed language:
We favor the development of our mer-
chant marine, and yet we favor taxed
ships. We favor the growth of our car
rying trade, and yet we favor the ami
hilation of our foreign commerce, which
makes up that carrying trade. We favor
prohibitory taxes on imports, and yet we
favor the extension of our trade with
Mexico and South America, which would
increase imports. Was there ever such
a mixture of cross purposes and illogical
conceptions.
Let every voter reflect on this declar-
alton of principles, and if he has any
doubt as to the accuracy of the deduc-
tions drawn, let him carefully read the
Republican platform. Study it carefully.
It is stated that the receipts of the bar
at the Grand Pacific Hotel at Chicago
during Convention week reached $4,000 a
day.
And still these old rummies, masquer-
aiding as the God and morality party,
put a temperance plank in their platform
and expect the people to discover the
stamp Of sincerity on it!
The nomination of Morton was so evi.
IDENTIFY for the sake of his barrel that it
rather nauseates the better class of Re-
publicans. The Springfield Republican
says of him:
He is u very rich man in a doubtful
State, where the sinews of war are most
urgently needed. Mr.. Morton has never
occupied place in the public eve be-
cause of any quality of his own. He has
sat quietly in Congress; he has enter
tanned generously as Minister at Paris !;
he is shrewd man of business; but for
a trace of statesmanlike character his
record may be searched in vain. Placed
in contrast with Allen G. Thurman. he
appears as he is, essentially insignificant
What is the Republican alternative !?
By the Chicago platform they are com
mitted to increased expenditures to get
rid of the surplus, and, these failing,
"the entire repeal of internal taxesS

der of any part Of our protective systemp .
(the war tariff forever). Will the Re-
publican Senate stand upon this plat
form? Will it kick the plank aside? Or
will it simply smother the Mills bill |?
In either case the responsibility will be
upon the Republicans Of preventing re.
duction of needless taxes. And the
Democratic party could ask no better is
sue than this -lNew York World, (Dem).

Watterson's Poor Opinion of Har-


The chieftain for this Republican crisis
was Depew, and his rejection shows how
little of the genius of political instinct
and sagacity is left in Republican leader
ship. Next to Mr.. Blaine, Mr.. Depew is,
to say the very least for him, the showi-
est member of his party, and there are in
him magnetic possibilities which might
have rivaled those of Mr.. Blaine him
self. Had he been the nominee we
should have felt very much like
throwing up the sponge, and taking to
the woods. But he was not nominated,
bless God. He was banged and fouted,
and sent home disappointed, perhaps a
resentful man, and has assuredly the
right to feel himself, with "Acres, !" "an
ill.used gentleman" The Republicans
will, of course, try to raise an 1910 Juror,
and to make log cabin and hard
cider, "Tippecanoe and Tyler too"
campaign OF it. But the old chicken
won't fight. The present Harrison is
not that sort of man. He lives in a
palace and drinks only champagne out
of cut glass. He never wore homespun
in his life, and would not know coonskin
if he saw it. He is cold, selfish, exclu-
sive, arrogant, and vain patrician. He
hates poor man worse than the devil
hates holy water. There is nothing
popular or magnetic about him. If he
lived in the East he would be- merely
drawling Anglomaniac. Living West,
he is merely the grandson of his grand
father. With Morton for yokemate, it
is simply rich mans ticket on poor
mans platform, and will poll only the
party vote. IL Louisville Courier-J Journal.
