CAPTAIN BARRETT'S VIEWS
Concerning the Political Situation
Up North.


UP North.
Capt A. w. Barrett, member of Coun-
Gil from the Fifth and prominent Dem
ocrat, has been spending week in San
Francisco. He returned from there yes
terday morning and shortly afterwards
was seen by HERALD man. Concern
ing the political outlook in San Fran
cisco, Captain Barrett, in response to
queries addressed him said:
''San Francisco Democrats did heap
of rejoicing over the nomination OF
Cleveland and Thurman. Any amount
Of enthusiasm prevailed, especially on
receipt of the news that the California
delegation had carried the point at st.
Louis and had Thurman nominated. All
Democrats with whom | conyersed re-
garding the situation were most sanguine
as to the success of the ticket. They
pooh-poohed the Oregon bug-a-boo, and
they claimed California would 20 Demo-
cratic this year.
"How about the other side, Captain ?"
the HERALD man asked.
Well, | must say Republican San Fran
cisco is just about as confident OF success
as is the Democratic party. In pursu
ance of business that called me north /
met cosmopolitan kind Of crowd-Re-
publicans, Democrats and Prohibition
lists. Leading Republicans hold that
success is assured their party as against
the Democracy because OF Cleveland's
tariff policy. On top of all this, though,
let me tell you l did not meet single
Republican who could even give me an
idea as to who the party's next candidate
would be. They are Blaine crazy, and
three thousand people who went over to
Oakland to see the Delegation off to Chi
cago yelled only Blaine" The San
Francisco Democracy is admirably organ
lied. We here would do we'll to emulate
their example. Each ward has club,
some two or three. Their big point is a
thorough canvassing OF every ward and
precinct in the county. They have any
number OF men at work in this direction. I"

| would, if | were you, inform the
Committee of this state of affairs, and
urge the fact upon them that there is no
hurry for some three months to come.
You see, the Australian spring cores
ponds with our fall and the proper time
to study the parasites in their active life
will be our late fall or winter months. |
do not mean by this that it will be the
best time to ship them to California be-
cause the probabilities are that the best
time for that will be the season cores
ponding to our spring, in which event l
should be in favor OF arranging with
some local agent there, or, perhaps, leav-
ing one of the party there until spring.
| have found it extremely difficult to
get the Committee on Agriculture to
realize thefull Importance OF this matter,
at all appreciated by the more influential
members of the Committee.
| notice that the papers are publishing
a good deal about the introduction of our
little dipteron, aud that my part in this
matter is entirely ignored. Such notices
as those in the Los Angeles HERALD

far as you have any influence you ought
to have the facts properly stated, and
whatever success you or Koebele have
had in the rearing and subsequent multi
plication of the parasite on Icerya should

division, though the fact should not be
lost sight of that Mr.. Crawford sent on
material to both of you and to Mr.. Klee

pertinent may prove successful, and /
hope you will not lose any opportunity to
make it so. Sincerely yours,

ON A CLIFF.
1t Was Mrs. Davis, and Not Miss
bradbury.


Bradbury.
The account OF the perilous position OF
a young lady at Santa Catalina Island on
Sunday last was somewhat incorrect.
From friend of the ladies concerned,
who was one of the party, it appears that
they did not go down with the excursion
on that day, but had been staying on the
island for some little time before the ac-
cident happened. Miss Bradbury and
her friend, Mrs. Davis, having strolled
over the hills from the hotel, separated,
and Mrs. Davis finally came to steep
and precipitous cliff, which she attempted
to descend. After proceeding a few feet
she lost her foothold and slid down some
distance, when she fortunately grabbed
a projecting bush; just at this mo-
ment two gentlemen, Colonel W. A..
Morford and ex-Sheriff Burns came
around the bend of the cliff in a small
pleasure boat, and seeing the lady's per-
| il, pulled for the shore as hastily as pos
sible. The Colonel then climbed up the
cliff, and getting above Mrs. Davis, low
cred one end of a rope, which Mr.. Burns
had thrown to him, to the lady, just as
the bush came out by the roots. She for
tunately was enabled to encircle her
waist with the rope, and after no little
difficulty had been encountered, owing
to the Colonel not being able to haul the
lady up by himself and having to hold
on until Mr.. Burns came to his assistance,
their combined efforts were at last sue
cessful and Mrs. Davis was landed on
terra firma. As there was pile OF hugh
boulders Immediately below the spot
where Mrs. Davis hung in mid-air, but
for the timely assistance OF the two gen
tlemen named, she must have been hor-
ribly crushed in another few moments
Miss Bradbury was mile away at the
time awaiting her companion, who is moi
her aunt, but who has been visiting hel
aunt, Mrs. VIM. Ferguson, of this city.
