Was America Ever Discoyered7

At the time when Columbus started in search
of the new world nearly every man, woman and
child In Earope insisted that there no new
world to discover. When he came back crown ed
with success, large proportion OF these good
people adhered to their theory; aud if they were
alive to-day. many of them would doubtless in
sist that America had never been discovered at
all. A man will give up anything in the world
more readily than pct theory. For example,
look at the individuals who still maintain that
consumption is incurable. DIR. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery has cured thousands upon
thousands of cases, and will cure thousands
more, but these people cant give up their point.
Nevertheless the Discovery" will cure any case
of consu mption, if taken In time.

the nine deputies CHOSEN were men
selected by reason of their past expe-
rience in the work, and he considered
them all competent men. They were
ready to go to work at 12 NJ, but when
they heard the committee had fixed
their salary at $50 per month several
of them refused to accept the place,
preferring to remain in the office.
Mr.. Collins moved to amend by fix
ing their salary at 500. Motion lost.
A vote was then taken on the rec
ommendation of the Finance Commit
tee, which was also lost.
Captain Barrett moved to fix the
compensation at $95 per month, which
was adopted after considera ole debate
and upon the information from Asses
SCI Stevenson that the whole bust
ness would come to a deadlock if
some satisfactory arrangement was
not made at once.
The further report of the Finance
Committee was read relative to the
Turf and Grain Exchange in which it
was recommended that special or
dinance be passed licensing the Ex-
change, and fixing the amount at
$1,000 per year.
Mr.. Sinsabaugh said he was glad to
know that decision as to the legiti-
macy of the Turf and Grain Ex-
change had at last been passed upon.
If the institution could not be sup
pressed then he was glad to see a H.
cense imposed, but the idea of fixing
it at $1,000 was simply farce. The in
stitution was looked upon by the pub
lie as disreputable, and the inaction of
the Council was q subject Of remark
all over the city. They were accused
Of having been bought off, and even
the legal department of the city gov
eminent was under suspicion. 1t was
time that the Councilmen relieved
themselyea from such 4 stigma, and be

Afternoon 8 Session. /.

The Board OF Fire CommiSSi Oners
presented a report recommending that
contract be let to E. G. Burlingame to
construct an engine house on Temple
street, near Edgvare road, similar to
that erected in East Los Angeles by
that gentleman.
Mr.. Hanley favored purchasing a
lot on which to erect building. Mr..
Lowell stated that the Commissioners
recommended that q lot be rented,
| for the reason that there were no
funds in the treasury with which to
make the purchase.
The recommendation of the board
was adopted.
The report of the Police Commits
sioners, recommending an ordinance
creating detective force, and that
Mr.. Emil Harris be appointed Chief,

amended, deferring action one week.

adopted.

Freeholders offering the formulated

companying the report.

President Humphreys called atten-
ton to the fact that there was not
sufficient number Of Councilmen pres
ent to pass the motion.
Captain Barrett moved that the

What Don Carlos Has to Say
About That Affray.
A HERALD reporter met Mr.. Carlos
Cruz yesterday on the street and he said /:
81 would like to give you my side of
that difficulty with officers Arguello and
Methvin."
"All right, Charlie" said the reporter,
out with it,"
"Well, he ereplied, II want particularly
to do so, because the stories heretofore
published are all wrong in many ways.
1t is stated that l was on the Santa
Monica train and that Arguello was
on the same train, and that the difficulty
took place on the train. That is all
wrong. 1t took place near the CONNER
cial-street depot. l had been on the
train and got of. Mr.. Osborne had
given me a bill against Arguello to col
lect. 1t had been standing two years.
He came up Alameda street on horse
back. l went up and told him !
had such a bill; that 1 had
been waiting since pay day
to present it; and asked him to pay it.
Arguello thereupon used to me grossly
abusive language and refused to pay the
thCu tuilCu W Walk away, anu
when my back was turned he struck me
a heavy blow on the neck. saw Officer
Methvin standing there looking on, and
| said: 'Methvin, l do not want to have
any trouble with this man; will you arrest
him?' Methvin never moved from
his place. l appealed to him two or
three times for protection. told him l
do not want to get into row, and that if
l turned Arguello might strike me again,
or perhaps, shoot lme. Methvin then
told me if 1 did not shut up he would
arrest me. asked why 1 should be
arrested and he then said Il
will arrest you and with
that he grabbed me by the
throat and struck one over the head with
a revolver"
7 'Now," said Cruz, "these men are
charged, one with assault and battery,
the other with assault with deadly
weapon. Why does the Police Commits
sion not suspend them pending the in
vestigation Of these charges ?''

distribution on the lands. 1t is the lard
owner who reaps the profit in the appli-
cation of sewage by the enhancement OF
the land SO brought under irrigation. II
the City of Los Angeles had accepted the
proposition of the public spirited gentle
men of the Centinela Rancho it would
have been one half million dollars
richer at the present time. We need
not go beyond the irrigation system OF
our own city to demonstrate that it does
not pay to sell water for irrigation pur-
poses. The revenue the city has
thus derived has not been sufficient
to keep our works in good order. As to
the statement that the Centinela route
was selected for the subsidy that it was
expected to yield, l challenge the
gentleman to show by figures from actual
surveys wherein the other routes men,
toned by him possess superior advan-
tages, in respect either to the adapta-
bility of soil for sewage application,
economic construction or ocean outfall.
