MAYOR WORKMAN has done most
sensible thing in taking time by the
forelock in the matter of giving the
city better streets. In his message to
the Council on Monday he urges all
diligence from now on in order to
provide paved stress in the business
center of the city before the rains Of
next winter set in. This is precisely
what the HERALD has advocated for
years. Winter after winter it has
reiterated the demand for an early
movement in order 10 give us good
streets by the following winter. Each
year the authorities have let the
months roll by, and about the time
the rains began to come some talk
was indulged in about the streets.
But the talk did not pave the city, and
here we are to- day with thoroughfares
so bad they would disgrace back
woods village "the winter after the
woods were burned" The Council
has ordered the paving of several
more of our chief avenues of bust
ness, and we earnestly hope that by
next December the city will be in de-
cent shape for the next season. Un-
less something very material is done
in this direction we may all prepare
to see the city retire grade, and some
rival with more OF the spirit of the
age will walk away with the pros
perity which rightfully belongs on the
qneen city's brows.

NEXT week the great Horticultural
Convention will meet at Riverside.
Distinguished fruit-growers from all
parts of the Union will be there.
They will come here from San Jose,
where they will have seen all there is
of the fruit interest OF the Central and
Northern counties. We must net be
content to talk about our "boom,"
we must show these people on what
basis our "boom" rests. Let them
see what the semi-tropic paradise re-
ally is from fruit-producing point OF
view. Let every community in the
country put in its exhibit, and thus
dazzle the eyes of our visitors from
the East. We can astnnish all be-
holders if only trouble is taken to
show what grows hereabouts. 1t will
pay us all many hundred-fold, what
ever trouble there is attached to the
effort

OnreoN has always been partieu

ORreos has always been particu-
1arlv fortunate in the substantial Ia
vors she has secured from the FEDERAL
Government. For nearly thirty years
the development Of that State has
been literally aided from Washington.
And Portland, the metropolis OF the
webfoot country, has benefited the
most by this smiling encouragement
of the powers that be. AS long ago
as just after the close of the war, or
twenty years since, Senator Corbett
secured a fine public building for that
city, which was then place OF not
more than 10000 population. The
edifice was erected on fine block in
the very center Of the city. And now
the Senators who represent Oregon
are before Congress with modest
request for $500, 900 for a new public
building for their city. Portland
has about half the population
of Los Angeles. When she had
one-e,ghth of our present people she
received not less than 100000 for a
Federal building. That is more than
has been voted for such purpose in
this city up to this time; and now
that we are in Washington with a
modest plea for more liberal treat
ment, Webfoot is by our side for her
second building, the one of twenty
years ago being deemed too small.
Yes, and she asks for twice as much
money as we ask for. We hope Ore
gon will get her 100000 We do not
refer to the matter with any desire to
put straw in the way of her receiving
her dues in this respect. Our pur-
pose is to point out the modesty OF
our own demands and the fact
that this is the first thing we
have asked. 1t is our own fault,
or rather that of our representatives,
that We have been so neglected. But
when you come to that, the fact OF
the matter is, Los Angeles never has
had any representative in Congress,
and has not now. The State Senators
have always been from the central
section of the State, and their influ-
ance has for the most part been ex.
erted in favor of their own locality
In the House, the members from oui
district have nearly always been
rom the northern rim Of the district.
The one exception has been Colonel
Markham, and he did some service
to the city. Oregon has had very
able men in both Houses of the Natl
onal Legislature, and in the mos
cases they have been from Portland

Uncle TOMS Cabin.

AT the Grand Opera House, Uncle
Toms Cabin continues to draw large
houses and will probably do SO for the
rest Of the week. The real Negro
singers who take part in the planta-
ton scenes make very pleasing music
and the antics of the donkey give the
people a good deal of amusement
The principal characters are all wei
taken and is a good presentation o1
the familiar piece.

One by one the great protected iron

One by one the great protected iron
concerns OF the country are reducing
the scale Of wages ten per cent. or
more. The last one tells its poorly
paid employees if they do not wish to
accept these terms the works will shut
down. On the other side the protect
ed mine owners with their "trust"
work up the price Of coal in the midst
of winter, and the poor laborer is thus
ground between the two millstones OF
this policy which benefits the rich at
the expense OF the poor. Ii the work
men strike, these great advocates OF
American labor import few ship
loads of paupers from overpopulated
Europe, who are glad to work at any
price.

The material progress OF this State
is at very rapid pace just now. The
Southern Pacific Company has orders
at Sacramento for the construction OF
sixty-four new locomotives, and now
it is reported that the same company
has placed orders with Eastern makers
for seventy-four more, to be delivered
in this State within six months. These
one hundred and thirty-eight new en-.
gines are an index OF the growth Of
California.

ing of his own disastrous defeat,
and of the probabilities of the party's
carrying California at the coming cleo
ton. He is very ingenious, quite as
unselfsh, and, paradoxical as it may
seem, decidedly ingenious in the
theory advanced to account for his
losi ng in the gubernatorial race. Heis
ingenious in setting up claim that his
party lost because of the existence OF
the American party. He is unselfish
in that he takes to himself the
odium of the larger part OF
the blame for the defeat. And
he is ingenious in the confession
that Republicanism and Knownoth-
ingism are nearly if not quite convert
ible terms. Mr.. Swift thinks the
chances for his party to carry the
State next fall particularly brilliant,
but bases his opinion on the hope OF
there being no Knownothing ticket in
the field. How he knows this is hard
IL puess. Has Mr.. Boruck burned his
Native American craft behind him in
order to prevent his return to the party
of Mr.. Pixley; and c.aes the absence OF
Boruck insure the absolute aeath
of the party? Where is Mr.. wig
gington? Mr.. Swift is wrong.
The Nemesis OF his party is the
Prohibitionists and not the Know
nothings. With a "dry" ticket in the
field, the party will have work cut
out to carry this State. Blaine is the
only man in the party who has any
chance of carrying California, and it
is not a walk-over for him.

THE Post called attention some
months ago to the extraordinary GRIM
inal record of the southern part of the
State, and the apparent paralysis
the law and the courts in the face OF
the outbreak. The cause, as we be-
lieved, was the attraction the wealth
and prosperity OF the section offered
to criminals, while the judicial and
prosecuting machinery had not pro-
gressed beyond the needs Of country
town. The extraordinary number Of
crimes, from murder down, has found
no power capable of dealing with it.
The inefficiency of the courts and
prosecutors, and the bad character of
the juries, have become notorious
[San Francisco Post.
Under the caption "a little hound
ing needed" our esteemed contem-
porary refers to the Anschlag murder
and then goes on as above. We well
zome mber the previous article in the
columns of our esteemed neighbor.
We wondered at the time who had
been making an ass of the writer. In
the light OF new facts it looks as if
Nature mad done this. The city prison
Of San Francisco is filled with mur.
derers Of all sorts, sizes, ages, col
ors and degrees of enormity. The
slayer of poor Mamie Kelly
y there. and DIR. Bowers is there fol
wife murder. There is Summerfielt
who murdered pretty Sarah Inidig.
But why stretch out the list. There
( are over a score of them in all. We
have some of the criminal class here
and by the way most of it halls from
Gan Francisco too. Anschlag came
4 - Us from there, and SO did others now
