LAUNCELOT GILROY.
His Opinion on the Success of I'll
Democratic Ticket.

Democratic Ticket.
Learning that Launcelot Gilroy, Coun.
ty Clerk of Tulare county was in the city
in attendance upon the United States
District Court, a HERALD reporter
was dispatched to seek an interview with
this honorable politician. Mr., Gilroy
carries the distinction OF being one OF the
leading Democratic lights of Tulare
county. That he is a most popular citi-
zen as we'll as an ardent follower of the
principles enunciated at the st. Louis
convention, is evidenced by the fact that
he refuses a denomination for the respon-
sible office which heihas held for three
terms.
The HERALD scribe found the gentle
man at the New United States hotel, on
Main street, and after making his mis-
sion known, Mr.. Gilroy declined to be
interviewed and the reporter asked:
"Well, since you will not submit to an
interview, Mr.. Gilroy, what Democratic
majority, in you private opinion, do you
estimate that Tulare county will give ?'
"Now, am not down here on politics,
but figure that Tulare will give a clear
one thousand majority for Reel Terry"
"He must be very popular then in
your county"
Popular. Well, l rather think he is.
Reel is a young gentleman of more
ability than his constituents give him
credit for. Because he is young man,
that should be no drawback. He
possesses remarkable brain power, and
can do more hard work in committees or
otherwise than any man l ever
associated with. He grows stronger as
the days steal on and oer him, and
when l say that Reel Terry will sweep
Tulare county by a cool thousand
majority, am not stretching the truth
and further if "Oregon" Sanders is nomi-
mated as the Republican standard
bearer in the Sixth Congressional dis.
trict, he will have to be more speedy
than a Swift itself to win in this heat
and race"
Chow do the sheep men stand, Mr.
Gilroy?"
"Solid as brick wall for Cleveland
and Thurman. They are alive to the
tariff issue, as is also every voter in Tu
lare, and will cast their ballots where
they will do the most good"
"Do you know of any prominent Re
publicans who will vote the Democratic
ticket?"
Several; amongst them T. w. Ma
pies, one of our largest and most intelli
gent farmers"
care you going to take the stump, Mr.
Gilroy, in this campaign"
''No; I'll do most of my work on {
blackboard"
"And will you do yeoman work as il
former campaigns ?"
"Why, don't you know that / am {
whitehead? Work! Well, l should say
so. But here, guess l am talking to-
much"
And with the last ejaculation Mr.. Gil
roy Strengthened himself, shook hands
with the scribe and suggested that ht
had to 60 up to court.

MURDERED.
A Young Man Found With a Bullet
Hole I'm His Forehead.

Hole I'm His Forehead.
A murder was committed night before
last on the outskirts of Los Angeles City,
on the San Gabriel road. Early yester.
day morning the body of young man
was found near the track of the Southern
Pacific Railroad, lying face down with a
bullet hole in the forehead. Word was
brought into the town early in the fore
noon, and the Coroner went out after the
body. A post-mortem examination re-
vealed the presence of bullet near the
base of the brain, the course of which was
such as to preclude the possibility OF a
supposition of suicide. The body, when
found, was lying near fence on which
there were numerous blood spots. The
dead man had evidently been seated
upon the fence when the shot was fired,
and had fallen forward. His face was
buried in the dust. The man was appar-
emily about 23 years of age, weighed
about 100 pounds, and was five feet seven
and half inches in height. He had
short, black hair, light grey eyes, and
no beard or mustache. There was moth
ing on his person by which he could be
identified. In his pockets were variety
of trifing articles, such as keys, a
brass watch chain, kid glove,
and a red silk handkerchief. The
keys were on a ring which bore tag
lettered "6,-J. D. c." His clothes
were not those Of tramp. On his feet
were pair of well-made CATERS. His
trousers were new and respectable in ap-
pearance, and he wore under clothes. 1t
is possible that he is Mexican, though
his complexion was rather that of an
American. An inquest was held on the
body yesterday afternoon at half past 2
O'Clock. The jury was composed of Nell
son Williamson, B. w. Doane, Thomas
Billings, A. G. Auten, w. E. Norford, Jr.
and William Harper. DIR. Cohn testified
as to the nature of the wound, but no
other information could be supplied. A
verdict was returned that "the man,
whose name was not known to the Jury,
had come to his death on the 25th OF
July from gunshot wound, in the head,
inflicted with gun in the hands of some
person or persons unknown" The affair
is shrouded in considerable mystery, and
will afford the police and detective force
OF Los Angeles matter for study and in
vestigation.

TWO WRECKS.
Passenger Trains i'm Trouble on

Passenger Trains i'm Trouble ON
the A. e. r.
The east-bound passenger train which
left this city over the Atlantic and Pacific
road on Monday night has been wrecked
near Laguna, this side of Albuquerque.
The train had to cross a bridge at that
point, and this structure had been very
much weakened by violent waterspout,
which had loosened the stringers from
the caps. When the engine ran upon it
it succumbed to the weight, and the en-
gine was swept down the stream with
the bridge, the connecting link fortunate
ly breaking and leaving the balance of
the train on the track. Engineer Kauff-
man was seriously hurt, but to what ex-
tent is not known.
Another accident occurred earlier in
the day at point near Flagstaff, in
which the mail, baggage and express cars
were derailed. 1t is reported that bag
gage man and several others were
dangerously injured, but no particulars
can be obtained.

THE RAILROADS.
New Tariff Rates to Eastern
Points.
TWO WRECKS ON THE A. & P,
The Declez Spur in OperatiOn-Mr
McCOOl Moves Into the
Phillips Block.

Proofs of the new tariff sheets were
received at the railroad offices in this
city yesterday. The changes are prin-
cipally advances on the lettered and
numbered classes and few reductions
ON commodities. The lowest rates now
are 81 100 instead Of 81. 10, and wherever
possible, carload rates have been made
and advances have been made in less
than carload lots. Summed up, the new
list shows an advance on rates to interior
points and reductions to the Atlantic sea-
board, this being result of the compe-
tition by water, for which allowance has
been made by the Interstate Commerce
Commissioners. The whole business
is the outcome of the recent meeting OF
the Transcontinental Association, which
adjourned from San Francisco to st.
Paul, and from there to Chicago, where
the necessary business was finally tran
sacted. None of the changes are very
great, as can be seen by the following list
of new rates, only those having been Sc
lected that apply to California industries
Raisins to all points East, $1.40 in car
load lots; hides, $1.20; nuts, $1.60
wool in grease, $3.50; wool, secured
$3.50; Dried fruit, $40; po
tatoes, to Missouri and Mississippi
river points, 80 cents, to Chicago 81
cents; wine in wood, to New York 81 to
Chicago and all points west of New York
$1.25; barley, to Missouri river 60 cents
to the Mississippi 621a cents, to Chicago
IS cents; beans to all points 81; honey
strained $1.20.
No announcement is made as to wher
this tariff goes into effect, but as ter
days notice is compulsory legally. it il
come law before August 18th, though
Chairman Leeds may announce al
earlier date, of which due notice will b.
given to shippers.

Des Arc Picnic and Barbecue.

Our Des Are picnic and barbecue passed
off in fine style. There were over 800 people
here, but not as many as were expected on
account of picnic at Rockwell's mill and
Moss Ferry. There was plenty for 1000
persons. We also had several speakers:
Judge Carter for one. He handled the tariff
question. Well, he was followed by a nice
little speech from our next representative,
Mann Ringo. There were several other can
d1dates here, including Buford, Whitworth.
Reyburn and Henderson. Our lemonade
and ice-cream stands, including the swing,
did well. Their receipts were over 5000, but
hardly enough to meet the expenses, as they
were over $3.50.
We were very much disappointed in not
having Samuel Byrns here. He did not get
the letter or message in time. We would
like very much to hear him, as he will be our
next Congressman in place of Martin l..
Clardy.
Although there was plenty of beer and
whisky here, there was hardly drunken
man on the grounds and the best kind Of
think, went home fully satisfied with their
visit to Des Arc picnic. Our music was by
the band from Fredericktown and they did
their part we'll and made first-class music
and seemed to enjoy themselves very much,
coming from dry town. must also say
that the dancing was kept up all day and
until midnight, and the Ironton boys and
girls handled themselves very nice, with Mr..
Moss Fenelon as prompter.

From GOOdiand.

Ed. Register-ou the afternoon of 10Th
inst. we had the heaviest rain of the season,
which will insure an excellent crop of corn
in this vicinity,as Mr.. Corn in most all places
here is quite early. But should another rain
fall come within ten days from this writing
the yield of corn, both in quantity and quail
ity, will far exceed any crop raished here for
four years past.
People are through with their hay harvest
and the yield in most places was very good.
Millet,w when sown close to wheat fields, lowing
to the prevalence of chinch- bugs, is compar-
atively worthless.
Since my last Mr.. Wart, d. D., organized
a Farmers Alliance at the churchhouse near
here. 1t consists of nine members and has
Mr.. Hawk, Jr., for president and Nelson
Stricklin for secretary. While I am not a
member, presume that the organization is
achieving great results, for hear old church
members say that it, as conducted, is super
Tor to the church.
Mr.. Hendricks, merchant at Camp Ground,
is selling goods for the Alliance on a ten
per cent. margin. That his efforts are ap-
preciated is eminent from the fact that three
clerks were kept busy at the time my in
formant was there. The Alliance at that
place, Camp Ground, will, 1 am informed,
give picnic on the 18th proximo. Since the
people at Camp Ground are whole-souled
people, I, or we, or all of us, predict grand
success.
The mail route from Goodland to Oates
has been extended to West Fork. Mr.. Crock
er, the carrier, made the first return trip on
the 14th inst. The round trip is about 81
miles; and, while it is easy enough to make
now, when the days are long, it will push
him in the short days of winter.
s. p. Reyburn was out here on the first of
last week.
made trip to Red Point last week, and,
while there, observed that the merchant,
David Cureton, Esq, is doing an excellent
business, with a probable stock of 5000.
A unknown man broke into store at Gen.
treville not long ago, and secured about $50
cash. But the people there caught him, and
made him fork over the cash, of course. He
said that, had he known the grounds as well
as they, they could not have caught him at
all; for when he was getting away as fast as
possible, they after him, be ran into ditch
about four feet deep, which, of course, put
a stop to his momentum, when they caught
him.
Rev. Mr.. Lightfoot, of the NJ. E. church,
held series of meetings not long ago on
Big Brushy.
John Gallaher, Edge Hill, purchased
mule not long ago of George Sumpter, price
paid, 500.
Mrs. Henry Asher, Big Fork, is visiting in
the family of Mr.. and Mrs. Jno. Mcmahon.
Messrs. l.. Alcorn and John Harral, both
of Belleview, were out here this week: the
one electioneering for the county ticket,
am informed; the other for his own personal
interest.
