Our Population.

In 1880 Oakland cast 5,S62 votes at the
Presidential election, and the United
States census taken the same year
showed a population of 34,555. The
ratio was, therefore, 1896 persons to
each vote, and the presumption is fair
one that the ratio is very nearly the same
this year. At least it is hard to assign
any reason why the ratio should have
changed materially. There were cast
this year in Oakland city S,6O3 votes,
and by the ratio of 1886 the population
would be so 715. Though this is some
thing less than the population which we
have been claiming, it shows an increase
OF about fifty per cent since 1885, Oak
land Enquirer.
In 1880 Los Angeles city cast vote of
little over 5000. In 1884 the vote of this
city was but little over 5000. In 1886
the registered vote of Los Angeles city
was only about 5000. In the recent
election the vote of this city actually cast
was over $4,000. Calculating on the
basis of Oakland as given above, the pop
ulation OF the Angelic city is now 65, ,OO0
But there were more than two thou.
sand voters in this city who did
not vote at all, although they
were registered At the rate of five
population to the voter it will appear
that we have $4,000 souls in this pueblo
But even that does not represent all oul
population. It requires years resi-
dence in the State to give the elector the
right to vote. A city which is increasing
as ours has zone, from 5000 in 1880 tc
5000 in 1884, 5000 in 1856 and Il, 900 in
1888, must have about 4, 1000 citizens who
have not been year in the State. This
raises the Lumber Of voters to nearly
20, 900 and gives us population of about
10000. Making all possible allowance
for exaggerated statements, and it mus
appear that the population of Los Ange
les city is about $4,000. By the end O
the spring it will have made large
stride towards the 100000 point, if il
has not actually reached it.

No WONDER that Frank NJ. Pixie

No WONDER that Frank M. Pixley
grows atrabilious as he sees the shrunken
figures of his precious American party.
With all the incentives of presidential
year, it poIled only bare sixth of the
the vote of two years ago. The eloquent
and splenetic Pixley talks of treason to
the organization, forgetting that he be.
trayed it himself, first accepting, then
rejecting and then accepting again the
nomination tor Congress in the Fourth
District. He grows wroth at an Italian
organ-grinder, who could not speak a
word of English, being in charge OF the
American party's ballots in precinct
that sounds to us very mnch like the one
in which Pixley himself lives. Frank
must cultivate more equable temper if
he wants to be big success as political
leader. Then, above all things, he must
pray for longevity. He will have to live
. thousand years to see his party elect
constable the way things are going now.

INDIANAPOLIS, November 16.-The Gen.
eral Assembly of the Knights of Labor
occupied most of the forenoon in com.
mittee work.
The first business of the afternoon ses-
sion was an address by Rev. Wilbur F.
Krafts, of New York, on the question Of
Sunday labor. The central thought Of
his discourse was that Sabbath reform
needs naturalization, and it had in sub.
stance been delivered by him before.
The Committee on Appeals and
Grievances reported the protest Of Dis
trict Assembly No. 70 against the organ.
ization of National District Assembly No
226, their report being favorable to tie
latter. District Assembly No. IS,
through A. d. Best, claimed that the
other organization had not been legally
perfected. As both were composed o
street-car drivers, decision was asked
to settle which Of the two certain local
Assemblies should be attached to. The
report of the committee was adopted
and District Assembly No. 226 will make
an immediate gain in membership o.
8, 900 or 1000 members.
The Committee on State of the Ordel
desired action on the eight-hour law, anC
recommends the appointment OF a specia
committee to look after the matter anC
take proper action. 1t was so ordered
by the General Assembly. Some mem
Der, whose name was carefully suppress
ed, introduced a proposition which was
defeated, that newspaper men be made
ineligible to membership in the Knights
OF Labor.
A lively discussion ensued over the in
PRODUCTION of a proposition to form Chi
nese independent organizations; as the
present law stands the Chinese stand or
the same footing as all others, a sufficien
vote being the only requirement for theil
admission as mem bers.
Tonight the Committee on Appeals
and Grievances meets to consider tht
case of Thomas 3. Barry, of Michigan
and j. NJ. Bloomer, of Toledo, Ohio
Bloomer was formerly editor of an indus
trial newspaper published at Toledo, AM
his statement is that his case is to decide
whether the Executive Board can expe
member without trial. He furthe
claims it to be to settle whether Dis
trict Assembly can destroy property. Or
the other hand it is asserted that he wal
expelled for villifying officers of th'
| Order. Both of these cases will be re
ported to the General Assembly in th'
morning and their action is looked for
ward to with considerable interest.
Mrs. L. M. Barry, whose work in th'
interest of the working people, ant
especially of women and girls, has beel
constant for long time, is confined II
her bed at her hotel from nervous ex
haustion. She has been working yer,
hard with insufficient rest.

Correct Election Returns.

The sHERALD has wisely preferred to
wait until the Board of Supervisors had
made their official count before giving
more election tables of Los Angeles
county. The wild figures given yester-
day by our contemporaries in their haste
to be first, shows that it is better to be
accurate than ''too previous" The
tables we published two days after the
election are borne out very gratifyingly
by the official count. For instance, in
our first returns, we gave Harrison's
plurality as 1902. The official count
makes it 1893. Now look at the wild
discrepancies OF our contemporaries in
prematurely giving the official returns.
The following table of comparisons, with
the actual official returns for President,
for Congressman and for Sheriff, will
exemplify our criticism:

Mr.. CLAUS SPREcKELs is said to have
pronounced favorable judgment. upon
the possibility of establishing gigantic
sugar beet industry in California, and to
contemplate abandoning his extensive
plantation in Hawaii. There is no reason
why the sugar beet industry should not
be as great and profitable thing in this
State as in France. Our rich virgin lands
are specially adapted to its growth, the
Southern California sun and soil COM
bined are just suited to developing sac
charine matter in the beet and the most
improved machinery is readily available.
Mr.. Remi Nadeau made partial expert
ment on his lands near Florence with
the sugar beet, but abandoned it. Never
theless the industry is one particularly
suited to this county.

Resignation of the Mother superior
of the Sisters of Peace.


UTICA, N. Y, November l6.-Sister
Mary Frances Claire, 'The Nun of Ken
mare" and recently Mother Superior Of
the Sisters of Peace, is now living in re-
tirement in this city, engaged in literary
work. To-day she made public her letter
of resignation to Pope Leo XIII. Fol-
lowing is an extract from it:
Holy FATHER-It is with great grief
and regret that / address tt is letter to
your Holiness. | am obliged to resign
into your hands the Office to which you
we're pleased to appoint me, and to
leave to others the work of the
Order of Peace which your Holiness has
authorized to be established. Ihave not
taken this step without long and careful
consideration, for l see every day more
and more the necessity of such work as
this for working girls. They have indeed
been great support to the Roman Cath
olic Church, and they deserve all tha
can be done for their comfort and en-
couragement. But 1 have found suct
opposition to this work, which | 81
dearly love, for certain bishops, whose
influence is 30 powerful that other bish
ops do not like to support what they dis
approve, even though it has the sanction
of Your Holiness, that 1 am obliged t.
retire from it. My health, alwas deli
cate has given way under the pressur,
and pain of encouragement.

THE season has begun very auspi-
ciously. At noon yesterday the Signal
Service had registered two inches of a
rainfall, while a private rain gauge on
Bunker Hill avenue showed 2.1l inches.
1t came down gradually, and every drop
was utilized. There have been violent
downpours of six and seven inches that
did not do half the good accomplished by
this rainfall. 1t continued all through
the afternoon and is falling as we write,
at SP.M NJ. The season begins right and
promises an old-fashioned year of plenty.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1888-11-17

The late Mr.. Sacriste. whose funera
took place the other day from the Cathe
dral, was the originator of what at one
time seemed very promising industry
in Los Angeles. We allude to the estab
lishment of the Woolen Mill. This en-
terprise was inaugurated by Mr.. Sacriste
some fourteen years ago, and one would
have thought that success would surely
have attended it. For years and years
the people of Southern California have
been shipping their wool to the Fast
where it has been manufactured aud
then sent back to this city and sold as
finished products in the shape Of
blankets, cloth and what not. The
transportation was highly expensive.
Fully half of the weight of the
wool was dirt, which had to
be secured out of the staple before
it was fit for use in the woolen mill. For
years and years and decade upon decade
we were paying freight not only on the
wool but on the dirt, and freight on the
manufactured staple brought back here
to be sold. And yet the woolen mill,
with abundant water power, which the
city furnished gratis, never paid while
under Mr.. Sacriste's supervision. This
is a matter of considerable astonishment.
is now in the hands OF Mr.. Coulter,
but has not been worked for some years
past. There is something very mysteri-
GUS in this history of the infant woolen
industry 0f Los Angeles. 1t is said, with
what truth we do not know, that even
with our own merchants there was a
prejudice against Los Angeles made
woolen goods-blankets and cassi-
meres. This would almost seem to be
incredible, and yet it is the plain infer.
ence from the stoppage of the work.
Such prejudice is very unworthy one,
and should be frowned down by a COM
munity which can only attain it's legiti-
mate growth when self-sustaining. Our
wool aud hides and other raw materials
should never be permitted to leave
Southern California except as finished
products.

gether. There is great good sense in this
new departure. The open sesame to
success is in planting, always planting,
whether OF vineyard or orchard. Few
people realize the profits that may be
made from fruit trees. Take the French
prune, for instance. The Flemings Of
Santa Clara county realized an average
OF 5000 an acre from prune trees covering
a period OF six years. The California
prune is surpassed by that of no country
on the face of the globe. Orange trees
are even more profitable. Keep on
planting. There is both wealth and
beauty in it.

Gone to the Wall.

CHICAGO, November 16.-The heavy
wholesale clothing firm of Lindauer Bros
& Go. fled confessions of Judgment in
the Superior Court to-day, aggregatinp
$1S1 1852. The firm is regarded as one
OF the largest of the wholesale clothiers
in the country. The failure is due tc
slow collections and poor sales on ac.
count of the extreme mild weather. The
firm did business OF million dollars q
year. Assets are 100000; liabilities
$40O, 900.
Dming the last sixty days the firm
paid out between 5000, 900 and $500, ,OOO
for the manufacturing department. The
capital stock was originally $3.50, 900.
They look forward to an early settle
ment and expect to resume business in
about fifteen days. They employed
about two hundred hands in their manu-
featuring department, and these en-
ployees had about $25, 900 deposited with
the firm. These sums were covered in
the confession of judgment.
The firm of Lindauer, Bros. & Co. ex.
tended all over the West and Northwest,
and it was regarded by the trade here
and throughout the territory tributary to
Chicago as one of the foremost firms in
it's line of business. Most of the in
debtedness is to firms in the East,
chiefly in small accounts. The suspen.
sion wes precipitated by the peremptory
refusal of Fl. A. Kohn, a well-known re-
tired capitalist of this city, to renew a
note for $4,000 which he held from
the firm.
