THE true inwardness OF the war
upon petroleum for fuel is cropping
out. By wire it is announced that on
Saturday last Congressman ap-
peared before Inspector-General Du-
mont, ON behalf Of the petroleum pro-
ducers in California, and stated that
the fight against the use of petroleum
as fuel was instigated by the coal in
fiuence in San Francisco, and had beer
going on secretly for months. He
asked that further investigation be
made, supplementary to lnspecto,
Lubbock's report on the matter. II
is not likely that the petroleum mer
will relax their efforts until they have
exposed the whole scheme.

A DISPATCH from San Diego an
nounces the death, yesterday after
noon, of Wallace Leach, Esq, for
many years a prominent lawyer Of
that city and conspicuous Democrat.
Mr.. Leach ran for Congress in this
District in 1879, and he was always a
familiar figure at the Democratic State
Conventions. He was bright young
man, a captivating of-hand speaker,
and successful as practitioner in the
courts. Mr.. Leach had great many
friends throughout the State who will
learn of his death with sincere regret.

THERE is 10 place in the world that
equals or even approaches South Cal
ifornia for the small-fruit farmer.
Five hundred dollars profit an acre is
often made. But more than all, a
farmer whose health will not permit
him to work even small farm else
where, is enabled to do it in this
genial climate. No billiards., no
snow-drifts, no life. chilling cold spells,
no cause to risk his life that his
stock may be sheltered from The
fierce storm. In the summer
time he may take life easy
too as there are no rain
storms to ruin his crops if left for a
time ungathered, and no fear of
drouth. The small farmer of South
California, with his fruit crop and his
half ac e OF Italia, or his acre or two
OF barley or wheat-hay, is independ-
ent OF care and surer of good returns
each year from his ten or twenty
acres-better results than the farmer
East Of the Rockies can show with
his one hundred and sixty acres.
Thousands OF persons in South Cali
fornia know all this, and are estab-
fishing themselves on small farn in
choice locations. This kind of settle
ment will in few years make South
California the richest and most pros
porous farming region in the world.

is well-deserviDg of the position OF IA
vorite, which he has held throughout
the winter betting, and the son OF
Falsetto would have started one Of
the hottest favorites ever known had
not some of his opponents in their re-
cent efforts proved themselves won
derfully improved performers. .To
my mind the most dangerous
|of his opponents is White,
whose meritorious second to Emperor
of Norfolk the other day, with such
good horses as Hunters, Cruiser and
Badge behind him stamps him as
very dangerous. He will count for
nothing in the way OF jockyship as
Barnes will be on his back although l
am well-aware that the King Bau
colts are as a rule non-stayers | must
cast my vote for White, with Gallifet
second and Chevalier third.

T,,e Crcat eai,ure.

Those who are at all conversant
with the house OF VIM. I. Coleman &
Co., whose failure is now the topmost
subject of interest, will with perfect
unanimity pray the best they know
how that the firm may be enabled to
tide over their difficulties and
go on. with their multifarious
and far-reaching business. The in
terests Of the Coast from Alasks
TO the Mexican line are most
intimately bound up in the fate OF this
great house. Salmon, hops, barley,
beans, oranges, raisins, canned and
dried fruits of all sorts, came within
the scope of the operations OF VIM. I.
Coleman 4 Co. AS these industries
were developed, as one by one they
came into prominence and market
had to be made for them, this firm
took them in hand. The methods of
handling the products, how to pack
them, to make them attrac-
tive, the advertising of their
merits - all ID points were made
q special study. Information was
spread abroad among those engaged
in the special industries. No stone
was left unturned to make the enter
prises successful and to make them
net the largest profits to the produc-
ers. Should the firm disappear from
sight much of this work will have
been in vain. The resumption OF
business by Fthis house should be
brought about If there is.any possible
way to do it.
1t is known that the embarrassment
of the house is due not TO its legiti.
mate business, but rather to branching
out into extraneous enterprises. The
Borax 4Company, which is legal
ly distinct from the company
han ding our fruit products, is
said to have drawn on the latter
VIII en- in need of funds. 1t is further
ass serted that the managers of the
borax business followed methods long
in vo que ON this coast, but more hon
ored in the breach than in the observ.
ance. They sold their goods
at an absolute loss in order
to drive ali competitors out
OF the field that they might enjoy the
privileges of a full-fedged monopoly
Then again the intimation is given
that the New York house which foi
some y ears past has been independ
ent of the fountain head at San Fran
: cisco, and which owed its existence
; to Mr.. Coleman is the real and imme
y diate cause of the failure. Here is
/; where the pressure came from-so 1t is
. said-and at time when it was boil
unexpected and unnecessary.

BETWEEN the years 1850 and 1860
low wool tariff prevailed, and the
increase of sheep in the United States
was three and one-half per cent. But
between 1860 and 1870 protective
tariff prevailed, and the increase of
sheep was twenty-seven per cent
Sacramento Record Union.
Did the tariff do this? Not bit Of

was cut off and we had to rely on our
wool to replace it.

Reception 10 Jesse shepard

A reception was given to Mr.. Jesse
Shepard last evening by w. d. S,
Harrington, President of Young
Mems Institute No. 81, at his resi-
dence on South Olive street. The
parlors were filed with the select
company invited, including the Right
Rev. Bishop O'Connell, the reverend
clergy and prominent ladies and gen.
tlemen of this city. The guests as
sembled at 9 O'Clock, when Mr.. Shep-
ard gave some of his mastery COM
positions for voice and piano.
The double solo for basso and
soprano was especially marvellous
for powerful intonation and brilliant
execution, and electrified all present.
Mr.. Shepherd is tall, good looking and
has a rich, sonorous voice. He has
given up music as a business and is
devoting himself to literary pursuits,
and is becoming as famous with the
pen as he is in music. After the
music refreshments were served, and
the guests departed highly pleased.

change of gold for bonds puts little
more actual money in circulation
Most of the bonds are now held py
National banks which base their eircu-
lation on these securities. For every

banks 500 in notes must be retired
The gold paid out merely offsets this

put the small pox hospital in the tract

shows a fine sense of the eternal fit

a congestive chill and in thirty min
utes her spirit was on its way to its
home in Heaven. She was brought
home and inferred in the garden
where she had spent so many hours
of pleasantly in her childhood. A
concourse of friends attended her fun
eral, and her parents and brothers
have the sympathy of the entire COM
munity. r. 2. ii.
