A Prisoners Break.

Yesterday morning Constable G..
jenkins was escorting five prisoners
from Justice Taney's court to the
County Jail. A wagon that was pass
ing at the time caused the group to
separate, and not being handcufed,
they seized the opportunity to escape
and bolted. Three were recaptured
and taken back again to Justice
Taney, who added 20 days to the
sentence Of each.

IT STRIKES us that our Republican fell
low citizens must experience some little
quaking as they observe the hegira of
the whole German element from their
ranks, while an almost equally large
stream of Prohibitionists are following in
a parallel column. 1t is no exaggeration
to say that in California the German is
through with the "grand old party. /"
The shadow of the Connecticut Blue
Laws is too much for the delicate stom-
ach of the Teuton. He believes that.
within the limits of reasonable laws. a
man should be allowed to do as he
pleases. The German-American Club of
this city is really the most remarkable
political organization we have ever known
in Southern California. 1t comprises in
it's membership the brain, brawn, educa-
ton and respectability of the race, and
Germans are getting to be very numer-
GUS hereabouts. They will not be with

vote of California for Cleveland and

deficient. We doubt very much whether
there are any standard wines, in COM
mercial lots, in this State, that are three
wears old. California has been almost
drained of her approved vintages.
The demand has steadily exceeded
the supply. This is simply another
way of saying that very remunerative
market is to the fore now; and that,
if we prepare ourselves to supply it with
pure wines and brandies, it is practically
llimitable in the future. Capital in
vested in wineries in Los Angeles county
will earn magnificent return. No busi-
ness in the world will pay a better inter
est on the money invested than that
which shall intelligently apply itself to
making, holding and grading wines. In
this section just now we are behindhand
in wine-pressing facilities. Grapes can
be bought here for $15 ton which can
be converted into wines and brandies,
held for three years, and a profit o.
three hundred per cent. realized. This
sounds like the language of extrava
gance, but it is really the statement of &
prosaic truth. The margin of profit is Sc
large to capital, experience, intelligence
and energy combined that one has some
reserve in naming the figures.

A RATHER novel call appears in our
local columns addressed to the Demo.
cratic Central Committee, and signed by
representatives of the Anti-S4loon, Re-
publican, Democratic, Prohibitionist and
Southern California Women's Christian
Temperance Union. 1t is an invitation
for delegation Of ten persons identified
with these interests or sentiments, each
to be represented by chosen spokes-
man, to assemble in convention at Long
Beach and discuss the Temperance ques-
ton. 1t would doubtless be very in
teresting meeting, and the discussion
could not fail to afford instruction as we'll
as amusement. Both the Republican
and Democratic parties would be at q
disadvantage in the controversy
because, while they occasionally change
their opinions or argument, the represent.
atives of the Anti Saloon, Prohibitionists
and Women's Christian Temperance I'm
ion never do. AS to that proposition, il
does not even admit of the old worn out
Pinafore joke of hardly ever" While
it was said of Sir Hudibras of old that
Though vanquished, he could argue

ularized never could be vanquished,
while their ability to argue is illimitable.
You can never conquer persons who never
know when they are whipped. The same
old misleading statistics, and inference
from false premises, would be employed
the day after they were confuted that
had been employed the day before. But
if any sanguine orators want to try their
prowess against these champions before
a Long Beach jury, with not even a
draught of cool beer attainable to wet
their whistles in the agony of the strug.
gle, the HERALD will watch the contest
with an absorbed interest.

DEBATE CLOSED.
Upon motion of Mills this closed the
discussion and consideration of the bill
in Committee of the Whole, and upon
motion it was reported to the House with
favorable recommendation amid hearty
applause from the Democrats. It's fur
ther consideration was then postponed

Dibble, of South Carolina, as ques-
ton OF privilege, called up the Allentown
public building and the Presidents veto
message. The report of the Committee
was read, recommending that the bill be
passed notwithstanding the veto.
The House refused to pass the bill over
the veto; yeas 141, nays "a, not the
necessary two-thirds vote in the affirm

fore the Department of Secondary In

ONE OF the editors of the Euentnq E.r-
press, Mr.. III. q. Osborne, is engaged
just now in making trip through the
country, and he writes his impressions
of men and things to his paper, all of
which is very right. He also has some
thing to say about politics, which is
proper enough. But there is a passage
in his last letter which, though unim-
portant in itself, deserves rebuke. In
referring to Mr.. Cleveland this censor of
men and manners calls him a "boor,"
There is something exceedingly unwar.
ranted and impudent in such language
as applied to the President of the United
States. The fact is that Mr.. Cleveland
is quite the most agreeable official one
encounters in Washington. His manners
are the perfection of politeness, which
has been rightly defined as delicate
regard for the feelings of others.
There is nothing about his per-
sonal habits or relations that
justiies such brutal remarks. He is
the peer of any man who has sat in the
Presidential chair for many years, anc
while he makes no pretensions to aristo-
cratic airs, he was brought up in the re-
fining influences of a clergyman's house
hold, his father having been a worthy
and respected minister of the Presby-
terian church. To apply the term "boor''
to such man, who has been Governor
of the Empire State and President of the
United States is simply to commit an in
defensible outrage. Our Republican con-
freres have professed to desire decent
campaign, but if this is specimen of
their "decency" we have grave forebod-
ings for the future.

The TroubadOurs.

On Monday next salsbury's Trouba-
dours will appear at the Grand Opera
House. Of this Company the San Fran
cisco Chronicle speaks as follows
The Company at the Alcazar comes
very near to being the best show OF the
kind on the road. 1t certainly has the
cleverest company that has been seen
here for long Time. 1t is better than
the old Salisbury Troubadours were. 1t
is simply stream of clever,
bright, witty and amusing, very
amusing things. Nellie McHenry is
a long way the best eccentric SOU
brette on the stage. She can sing even
better than she used to, she can act
anything from straight business to bur-
lesque, she dances with a comic art that
is rare. She does great deal of work,
clean, vivacious, enlivening work, with
out single dull or stupid movement in
her whole performance. Her singing,
which includes operatic burlesque, little
bits of sentiment and amusing character
songs, are exceptionally cleverly written
and full of new and amusing points.
Indeed, if it were only for Nellie
McHenry herself the entertainment
would be worth the money. But all are
clever.
