truth, and it should therefore be your
fourth watch.word. Our sages have said
that the seal OF God, is everlasting truth,
whilst the lie, is utter darkness. The lie
comes from sheol, and it leads the liar to
everlasting darkness; whilst truth origi-
mates from God. 1t comes out from the
height of light, and leads to the highest
regions of everlasting light. Truth is
clear and precious, like the diamond
Truth is all and above all. Truth very
often comes in conflict with liars and
frauds, with hypocrites and deceit.
These evil and injurious spirits very often
assume the mask of truth, and endeavor
to crowd themselves against truth, but
the light of truth will always come out
OF the conflict in great victory, just as
the sun is victorious over the dense fog,
just as the light of the sun gains its vic
tory over the darkness OF the night-so
will truth forever exist, while the lie will
pass into oblivion. therefore hope and
pray, that the Lord God will forever
spread His great light of truth upon you
all, and guide and lead you to His holy
height, and Heavenly virtue.
And now, my friends, we come to the
last cardinal point of light, and that is
the light of the "Thorah" or the crown
OF the holy law, that great knowledge Of
Gods sacred treasure, which he gave to
his people on Mount Sinai as an ever
lasting inheritance. That light is the
source of all light, which l have here
enumerated. Faith and virtue, knowl-
edge and truth, are certainly Gods preci-
GUS gifts, but the light OF the "Thorah''
is Gods most sublime light, to all man
kind. 1t is lamp for our feet, and a
bright shining light, to our path, and in
whose heart this light exists, there is NO
fear for darkness. If that great light
had not risen on Mount Sinai thousands
of years ago, mankind would to-day,
still be wandering in night of utter
darkness, in night of heathenism. and
in night of the darkest love OF idolatry.
The children of Israel always had light
They said with King David: "When the
Lord God is my light, of whom should |
ever be afraid ?" "And when the Lord is
my fortress and my strength OF
whom should l have dread or lear." AS
you are now permanently organized and
established as Young Mans Hebrew
Association, and as you have the word
Hebrew as your motto, it behooves
you to follow in the path of our ances-
tors. The thought of God, and to God
should be your constant light, and your
constant watchword. Then, will light
always be around you. There will be
light in your hearts, light in your heads
and light in your souls. In the midst oi
your darkest evenings you will have a
bright shining light. All dark problems
and questions of life, will forever be
banished from your minds. All your
tribulations and sufferings of doubt will
be easily explained to you. Even the
the darkest night of the grave will be to
you as a beacon light. Then will the
light of faith and virtue and the light OF
knowledge and truth, be your everlast
ing guide. Then, and only then, will
there be peace and good will amongst yor
and Gods light will forever and ever &C
company you. Amen.

THERE are precious few clear-headed
men in the United States who think
that Cleveland is in any danger of losing
his own State. There are beginning to
be great many clear-headed Republi-
cans, on the other hand, who are begin
ming to distrust Harrison's ability to
carry his own beloved Indiana. The
contemed Greenbackers and Work
ingmen are closing up in II solid phalanx
OF opposition to the silk-stocking candi-
date. The campaign in the Hoosier
State, opened so auspiciously by Voor-
hees, promises to be memorable from
the completeness of the Democratic VIC
tory. Thurman is tower of strength to
the Democracy in Indiana. Postmaster
General Don M. Dickinson has applied
his masterhand to the good work in his
own State of Michigan, and the result
will be an almost certainty, through a
fusion with the workingmen and green
hackers. Of eight of the electoral votes Of
that State for Cleveland and Thurman,
and the loss of all her electoral votes to
the Republican candidates. The Repub-
lican leaders are also beginning to think
it we'll to look to Minnesota, where one
Republican member of Congress has
seen fit to respect the will of his constit-
uents, irrespective of party, by voting for
the Mills bill. With the Germans of the
northwest heading in a body for the
Democratic camp, it is highly expedient
for the Republican managers to keep a
steady eye on Wisconsin, which is trem-
bling in the balance. Coming nearer
home, San Francisco is good for
five thousand Democratic majority !;
and, with such handsome
send off, the State ought to be sure for
Cleveland and Thurman by a rousing
figure. With New Jersey assured to the
cause of good government, as of old, and
Connecticut prepared to vote as she did
in 1884. there is small comfort for Re-
publicans anywhere on the political
horizon.

he thanks of the people of the whole
State for its frank admissions. In this
light we can well forgive that journal for
its fling at the Southern counties.
The Post goes on to say:
1t is true, as the Stockton Mail charges,
that San Francisco, by means of a false
school census, did attempt to get more
than her share OF the State school money.
In connection with this detected and
acknowledged villainy of San Francisco
the Post undertakes to reflect upon the
reliability of the school censuses OF
Southern California, and adds that if the
thing is not stopped our school census
enumeration will shortly outnumber our
total population. AS far as Los Angeles
is concerned we assure our San Fran
cisco contemporary that while our school
census this year exceeds $1,000, the
Great Register will contain the names OF
26,000 voters, of whom probably 22,OOC
or $4,000 will cast their ballots at the
ensuing Presidential election.
The Angelefio, as he fixes his minds
eve upon 100000 which will 60 to Sac.
ramento this year on Mr.. Mason's valua
ton, of which only about $15O,OOO will
ever find its way back, may be assured
OF two things: G.) He will never know
what it is to have fair play until he is a
citizen of the State of South California
CD that there is no chance o.
such State until We get the
new and honest representation which
will be ours by the census OF 1890. The
northern and central counties have go
hold of too good thing ever to let g
OF it voluntarily. 1t is true, as a third
postulate, that we are growing at such 6
rapid rate that we may shortly have the
preponderance of population of the
whole State, and thus run things to sui
ourselves, returning the compliments W,
have received, a la the game of shuttle
cock and battledoor, but that is a contin
gency that will take five or six years, il
all likelihood. Our most immediat,
remedy is to elect sensible Democratic
successor to County Assessor Mason.

BUSINESS of all kinds is decidedly on
the up grade in Los Angeles. For this
season of the year the activity reported
in all lines of trade has never been sur
passed. The demand for good real estate
is much greater than ever before noted
in the Summer months with the single
exception of last year, and it is steadily
on the increase. This is true of the
whole of Southern California. The sale
of Mr.. Scott's Colonia rancho in Ventura
county, the other day, with receipts of
nearly $3.50, 900, shows that the inquiry
for farming lands in this section is large
and increasing. The table of real estate
sales in this city and county will shortly
take on something of the "boom" di-
mensions of the past.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1888-08-09

THE assessment Of the city of Los An
geles last year was $29, 900, 900 and the
tax rate vas $1.30 on the $1OO of val
uation. This year the assessment is
$39, 800, 900 and yet the tax rate has been
increased to $1.50 on the 500. This is a
great increase in the assessment and a
very considerable one in the rate. We
warn the Council that the people expect
some great and substantial improve
ments for this large expenditure. Last
year the city spent $342 1854 and this year
she is preparing to spend $591, ,1s7-a
large sum for city of $4,000 souls. The
municipal finances are not model Of
good administration. The different funds
are badly adjusted and the cash fund i.
already empty.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1888-08-09

Jose, averaged a net profit of 5000 year
from four acres OF French pruues, the
average covering a period of six years.
We have heretofore given in the HERALD
an account of the profits from single
acre of oranges, and the mean average
of a matured grove will far exceed the
profit OF Mr.. Flemings prune orchard.
But miracles will yet be done in
truck gardening in Southern California.
The day is not distant when this region
will supply the early vegetables for the
whole United States, as we'll as con-
tribute a large share of the wines and
brandies drunk not only in this section
but in the world at large. All these
things are as yet in their infancy. The
prolific lands adapted to these miracles
of production are after all limited in
quantity, and it is certainly not exagger-
ating one whit to claim that, some day,
they will command the yearly rental now
received for lands in France which have
to be nourished to the productive point
by expensive fertilizers and by artificial
devices of all kinds.
Ten years from to-day Los Angeles
county alone will be selling $10,000,0 ZOO
of wines and brandies yearly to the out
side world and Southern California will
be supplying the United States with
three-fourths of the canned fruits used
by our people.
These possibilities point to large
population hereabouts. which will build
up great city in Los Angeles, and nu-
merous prosperous minor cities and
towns at all points OF the compass which
| look southwark.

Hon. H. T. GAGE, one of the delegates

Hon. H. 7. GAGE, one of the delegates
to the Republican National Convention,
has returned from his trip East, and, as
in duty bound, gives Harrison and Nor
ton good send off. He expresses the
opinion that Cleveland and Thurman
will not carry single northern State.
Well, Henry, with the exception of New
York, New Jersey, Indiana, Connecticut,
California, and possibly, Minnesota and
Wisconsin, you are about right. The
Democratic candidates are chivalrous.
and don't want to make their opponents
feel too lonely. Though off on politics,
Mr.. Gage is all right on Los Angeles.
and truthfully says that it is the most
delightful spot he encountered in all his
travels.

meant that the import tax was to be re-
duced on sugar. Oar esteemed and
learned contemporary, starting out to
correct the HERALD, shows its ignorance
in an appalling way. 1t says that there
is no internal revenue duty on alcohol,
whether FUSED in the arts" or otherwise.
The writer is probably ignorant of the
fact that spirits and high wines are alco,
hol, and that they pay duty of ninety
cents gallon. We would suggest that
when the Express next undertakes to play
lector, it might be we'll to know what it
is talking about.

IS The Wife,,

At the Grand Opera House this morn
ing the sale of seats will begin for the
engagement of six nights and Saturday
matinee, commencing Monday evening,
of Mr.. Daniel Frohman's Lyceum Thea
ter Company of New York in their great
success by Belasco & DeMillc, The Wife,
now in its fourth week at the Baldwin
Theater, San Francisco. The Wife will
be given by the same cast and in exactly
the same manner as it is now being seen
in San Francisco, and was during its 25O
nights run at the home theater in New
York.
The legitimate stock companies in
New York since the closing of the Wal
lack organization consist of Mr.. Daly's,
Mr.. Frohman's Lyceum Company and
Mr.. Palmer's at the Madison Square.
Mr.. DAILY devotes his productions to
adaptations from the German, Mr..
Palmer looks to the English market, and
Mr.. Frohman's policy remains the same
as when, being manager of the Madison
Square Theatre, he presented success
fully Hazel Kirke and other American
plays. The present Lyceum play is said
to be thoroughly American, both as to
its authors and scenes. When it was
presented IN New YORK early last season
by this company it was intended for a
run of about two months. The success,
however, was quick and lasting, and al
though contracts were made to produce
other works The Wife continued to pros
pef throughout season which extended
over eight months time. 1t was only
withdrawn to carry out the contract for
its presentation in San Francisco and
this city. The success of the play equalled
that of the Bankers Daughter, and the
Lyceum Stock Company may be said to
have taken the place to-day in New York
that was once occupied by the Union
Square Company in the days of the late
Charles Thorne and other conspicuous
players. At the conclusion of the engage
ment in this city the company will at
once return East and again present The
Wife at the home theater.

A Queer Mishap.

A man named McAllister fell with a
clay pipe in his mouth fast evening near
the depot on San Fernando street. The
pipe struck the ground first and the stem
was forced back through his palate,
where it was broken. He was taken to
the Police Station, where DR.. Choate re-
moved the broken pieces of pipe.

Cotton & Motifs NIinstrels,

This excellent company had another
good house at the Academy of Music last
night. They have certainly caught the
public favor, and they are we'll deserving
of it as they give fine entertainment
with a number of new and novel fea-
lures. The audience was very enthusi-
astic last evening, giving encore after
encore, together with continuous roars of
laughter, and left the theatre delighted.
There will be an entirely new programme
given this evening.
