lie all but nine votes in the State
Central Committee. Out Of total OF
fifty-four, they have forty-fve; we
have nine. That is we have one
sixth, or 1873 per cent OF the
total representation in the Com
mittee, whereas the voting strength
of our district in 1886 was one-ffth, or
20 per cent. of that OF the whole State.
If we 60 back to 1882 we find the total
vote of the three Northern Congress
sional Districts was 10000, while
that of the Fourth or Southern Dis
trict was AZ 600. In 1884 the five
Northern Districts cast, respectively,
$4,000, 37,O93, 81 227, 25,676, and
80, 1854. In that same election the
Southern District, the same as now ex-
lists, cast 35, ,444 votes. Making allow
ances for the changes in the territory
embraced, it appears that while
the upper part of the State
has increased but little in voting
strength, the southern counties have
increased very greatly. This increase
on our part has gone on at an acceler-
ated pace in the two years since the
the last general election. At the
coming National contest this District
will cast 45, 900 votes, perhaps $4,000.
And in view of these facts we are en-
titled to fourteen votes in the State
Central Committee. In all other rep
resentative bodies we ought to have a
like increase of representation.
But the glaring inconsistency Of our
repr esentative in the State Central
Committee may be more clearly en-
phasized by taking the votes cast for
the Attorney General at the last cleo
ton. Taking that vote as fair stan
dard, the Northern counties, exclu-
sive of San Francisco and the Bay
counties, have one representative in
the Committee to every 1850 Demo-
cratic votes; whilst the
Southern counties, from San
luis Obispo and Kern to San
Diego have only one representative
to every 2,946 Democratic votes. OF
course with this disparity of strength,
we can only get the Convention here by
the assistance of Committeeman from
the Mi ddle and Bay counties, many of
whom will stand in for Los Angeles.
1t will be the duty of the delegates to
the next State Convention from the
Southern counties, to insist on much
fairer representation in the State Cen
tral Committee than we now have.

proved. A communication was re-
ceived and read from the residents on

streets, protesting against the erec.
ton OF saloon there. License was
denied. Several applications fol
saloon licenses were received and
placed on file.
The matter of branch police sta
ton for East Los Angeles was dis
cussed. Moved by Mr.. Humphreys

accompanied with plans and specifi-
cations, including plumbing, and for
warded to the City Clerk.
The charges against Officers Walsh,
Lennox and Romans were continued

A WRITER in the Oakland Enquirer
says that he is told that there is not
a sewer in Los Angeles. This is a
specimen of the way in which our
city is traduced by her enemies
There are over eleven miles of sub.
stantial brick sewers in this city, run
ming from the Southern Pacific depot
on San Fernando street, down Main,
Los Angeles, San Pedro and Alameda
streets to the limits Of the city. This
m ain system is intersected by a num-
Der of other lateral sewers ON the
cross streets. It will therefore be
seen that Los Angeles is not so badly
off for sewers as some people would
make out. But the city has grown SO
extensively that the present system
will have to be greatly elaborated.
As soon as we can perfect our plans
and get decision on the power of the
city to issue the bonds required, Los
Angeles will be provided with all the
sewers she needs. Then our streets
win b paved, 20 that before another
winter ssts n Los Angeles will be per.

AMUSEMENTS.
ssPrince Mathusalem" at the
Pavilion.

The Pyke Opera Company produced
Strauss Prince Methusalem at the
Pavilion last night. This was one of
the company's favorite productions
when here a year ago. 1t was a de-
cided hit at that time. The produc-
ton last night was quite artistically
done. De Lange introduced his
"Birdie" song, and gave hint of the
accent" ditty, but failed to give more
than a hint-a decided objection from
the audiences point of view. Miss
Winston in the title role captivated all
hearers with her clear and flexible
notes, and Miss Manfred was as pretty
and as winsome as is her wont.
The Methusalem is where Clark in
the role of Duke Cyprian does his
very best. A lady in one of the
front rooms expressed wonder as to
where he got those legs, and her COM
panion ventured the opinion that he
had robbed grasshopper. His diet
is decidedly the air, not promised
crammed like that of the Prince of
Denmark. In Clark's case the prom
ises are omitted, and the air is
thinned down by some means of rari-
fication, else surely he would be fatter
than he is.
Methusalem for tonight and Satur-
day matinee. For tomorrow the
most tuneful of the operas, Millock-
er's Beggar Student, and until further
notice.

Frank Emmett, the head waiter of the
Sherman House, and the story she
told of her antecedents, which she
is given to telling, was en-
tirely different from that she has told
to the police. Her romance at that
time was that she was the sister of
the Fenian patriot, O'Brien, who was
executed in 1867. She was addicted
to the cup, that not only cheers, but
inebriates, and those she was thrown
in contact with were convinced that
her indulgence had unhinged her mind
and that the accounts she gave of her.
self were but the creations OF disord-
cred fancy.

Lying About ls tverywhere.

We have received the following
letter from our well-known fellow
citizen, Mr.. ]. M. Stewart:
EDITORS HERALD If you cannot
use any portion of this letter to ad-
vantage, commit it to the flames or
waste basket, and no hard feelings
will result. The enclosed articles are
all cut from the Minneapolis Tribune
of the same date, and contain more
falsehoods than are often found
crowded into one paper. l thought
perhaps you might wish to comment
on some portion of the same, and as
you may not have had your attention
called to them, 1 enclose the three.
l have been asked twenty times if
had read them; if they were not true,
etc., and have tried to point out
wherein the writer erred. l have
been told by gentleman whosis in
terested in this city, and who has
lived several years in Los Angeles
county, that such articles, while they
are intended to benefit Minneapolis,
are doing it great injury, for the in
telligent portion of the community
can easily see several falsehoods
stamped on the face of each article.
J. M. STEWART.
Minneapolis, March s, 1888.
The articles to which Mr.. Stewart
alludes appear in the Minneapolis
Tribune. One is written from Pasa-I
dena by Mr.. j. M. Bartlett; anoth-
er by G. A. Gordon, from Los Ange-
les. Accepting the wild statements
and false conclusions of these gentle
men as true, the editor Of the Tribune
regales his readers with a whang-
doodle leader headed "The Busted
Boom" He lays particular stress on
the verdict of Mr.. Bartlett, whom, he
says, is one Of the oldest and shrewd-
est real estate men in Minneapolis.
That settles it. Mr.. Bartlett
is one of those fellows who
knows on which side his
bread is buttered. He found that the
rush of people to Los Angeles and
Southern California was damaging
his business, so he comes out here
with the predetermined purpose to do
all he could to stop this diversion of
fish from his own net. Minneapolis
must be hit hard by our boom when
it sends out one of its leading real
estate brokers to write it down. Cor
don's letter is too grossly fabulous to
need review. Whether he is also
Minneapolis real estate man we do
not know, but his falsehoods are like
staff's-"gross, palpable." When
the Tribune took these letters as
text for it's article on "The Busted
Boom" we had just concluded the
"boomiest" month of the epoch,
having recorded transfers OF realty to
the extent of ~ 900, 900 during that
month. How does that look for a
"busted boom ?''

the Conried Opera Company at the
Grand last night. The piece ran
smoothly, as it did on the two previ-

the strength of the Conried's con-

must needs run smoothly enough.

Evidence has accumulated which shows
that thousands of dollars have been spent by the
Democratic State central committee to get pro-
fessional repeaters and thugs OF all kinds to
come to Indiana, and assist in carrying the
State for Cleveland. The result of all this ex-
penditure is that the State is being over

already begun to arrive, and many of them will
likely make their headquarters in this city until
election day. One gang has already been ids nti-
