be committed by citizen of the country which
asks for eXtradition, since under ordinary
PRACTICE no Government sIrrcnders It's own
citizens for trial by foreign court. Tho
dynamite workers, sentenced yesterday in Eng
land would under this treaty have been ex-
,raditabc if they had escaped to America and
had been British subjects This is the precise
extent TO which the convention can be applied
against this class of crimes. II excmpts polrti-
cal offences and restricts legal proceedings to
the prccisc offence for which cNtradltion is
asked. II does not arm either Government
with power 10 prosecute political offenders.
II establishes ample safeguards for innocence
and patriotism,
These remarks apply only to the original text.
Il is rlmorcd that important additions have
been made to the treaty by amendments, and
that in its altered form the British Government
NAV be able to make political use OF it In
carving on its warfare with the Irish people.
If this be true publicity ought to be given both
to the amendments and to the debates. Amer
leans generally are disposed to think we'll of a
treaty which will cut off the retreat OF bomb
throwing Anarchists and embezzling cashiers
to Canada, and they are willing to send back
TO London British subjects who can be con-
yicted on valid evidence of handling explosives
for the wanton destruction Of life and property
They will not consent, however, TO the sur
render of political agitators or conspiiators,
nor will they deprive the oppressed of any
nation or race of the sacred right of asylum.

The now managers Of Jerome Park propose 10
improve that renowned race course and make 10
more generally attractive and popular. first they
should make it easier to get there Another track

so convenient of access Lovers of racing can go
to the Coney Island course at every hour OF the
afternoon, and even if they miss the nrst tnree
races they can still get much enjoyment OUT oi
the last race Jerome Park has been as hard 70
reach as if it were in Central New-Jersey instead
of within the city limits Few trains have oecn
run and none Of these in recent years mas nao
drawing room cars attached, while all the oldest,

Only small percentage OF the metropon'aa
admirers Of racing can drive out to Fordham and
the ride, though delightful in pleasant weather
is dctestablc ON stormy days when Jerome-ave. is

vance in wages OF Is per cent. The demand Is

EXHIBITION WITH ENGLAND.

Senator Riddlebcrger will be certain to enlist
public sympathy in his resolute efforts to have
treaties discussed in open session. Star Cham-
Der proceedings are not popular In America
There may be circumstances when secret DC
alterations over treaties are ncccssary but
ordinarily. when commercial or extradition con-
conventions are before the Senate
nothing is gained and much time
is wasted by the practice or con-
Quoting debate with closed doors. The
cxtradition treaty with Great Britain. which
Senator Riddlcbergcr wishes to discuss in open
session. was published in TIE TRIBUNE year
AGO. No harm resulted from tho enterprise
of Our Washington bureau in obtaining the
text of this important convention. In like
manner no harm would result from the pub
LEGATION of tho debates on the treaty. Inc
SunY may take too extreme view when it says
that this practice of secret elaboration Is "a
vcstipe of the snobbish and exclusive spirit
which survived the separation from the British
monarchy: but We believe that it is right IN
condomnine executive sessions for the con-
sidoration of ordinary treaties. The Senators
could easily dispose Of the pending treaty in
single open session. AS it is, they arc frltter-
ing away time for no purpose.
Tn consequence Of the r-chamber proceed
ines of the Senate much confusion has been
caused in regard to this treaty. IL is currently
believed by Irish Americans that they will be
deprived by the convention of the right of
asylum. that subscriptions to Nationalist funds
will be prevented and political asitators handed
over TO the tender mercies OF Nh. Bailour'
The original text of tho treaty shows that thcsc
spprcbensions are groundless. -Four crimes
,rn adaed to the cxtraditable list: man
slaughter, burglary, embezzlement and mali
cious injuries to property whereby the life OF
any person shall be endangered. Under the
lest clause any British subject who had used
dynamite in destroying buildings or endanser,
ing life anywhere In the United Kingdom wouio
be liable 10 eNradition If he escaped TO the

The Russian journals may protest too much
when they say that war Is not desired by the
Car and his advisers. There Is always war
party in St. Petersburg. There are AMBITIOUS
officers and restless dare-devils who cannot en-
dure the dull, plodding routine of barrack LIE.
They crave opportunities for distinguishing them
selves in the field and winning rapid promotion
There are more officers in the Russian service
who love the excitement of war for its own sake
than there are In any other European army
These mad-cap soldiers always exert great infiu-
ence In St. Petersburg, and the innermost circle
Of the Cars advisers frequently feels the pressure
Of this aggressive class.

An elaborate revision of the Civil Service
rules has been made by the National Commits
sion and amended and approved by the Presi-
dent 1t will be noticed that no mention Is
made of a rule favored by the majority OF the
Commission few months ago, requiring the
reasons for removals to be fled. This was
urged in connection with the case OF Post
master Harrity, eff Philadelphia, whose devo'
ton to Civil Service reform was shown by
making a clean sweep of his subordlnates.
Commissioner EdgertOn has consistently OPP
posed such a requirement, and the President
has taken the same view. Will MIR. Clevelands

The commission of experts who examined the
ceiling of of the Assembly Chamber on Ihurs-
day found that its condition was really alarm
ing. Their report. which is printed In another
column, describes the defects IN detail In
private conversation they declare that they
were thoroughly frightened while engaged IN
their task, and one of them, believing his Ire
to be iu danger. refused to proceed with the
examination. further inspection yesterday
revealed at least one new crack of considerable
proportions There seems to be no reason to
doubt that the ceiling must be removed, and of
course new quarters must be found for the
Assembly. Some place for its meetings ought
to be available in the Capitol itself. The State
should not be put to the expense OF paying
rental for acostly private building.

One of the finest valleys in Southern
California is the one that heads this
notice. When the Catholic Fathers
first settled in California they locked
around for the best locations and the
most fertile valleys in which to es-
tablish Missions. San Gabriel, San
Fernando, Los Angeles, Santa Bar
bara and Santa Ynez Missions, with
their old churches fast going to decay
and the best lands in the State of Cali
fornia surrounding the same, are
ample evidence Of such being the case.
Santa Ynez being shut out from all
railroad communication, has not ad.
vanced with the rapidity that it should
have done, but at the present time
two transcontinental railroads are sur
veyed through the valley (the South
ern Pacific and Atchison, Topeka and
Santa Fe), and in every probability
one, at least, will be finished past this
place before the end of the year.
The Santa Ynez Land and In
provement Company intends during
the coming year to make a great
many improvements. The water. of
which there is an abundance for every
acre Of land owned by the company,
both for irrigatiDg and domestic pur-
poses, will be carried in irrigating
canals over the lands OF the company,
and pure mountain water will be
piped for domestic purposes. Avenues
are being laid out and lands subdi-
vided, and are being sold very rap
idly, great many of the purchasers
being old settlers of Riverside, Po-
mona and other parts of Los Angeles,
who have sold out at good prices here
and are reinvesting where lands can
be bought cheap and where any crop
that is raised in Los Angeles county
can be grown.
Residents of Southern California
who have sold out and wish for
another boom should visit Santa
Ynez, the coming settlement.
To Eastern people seeking home
this is one of the best opportunities
offered in the State. Fine lands at
low prices, essy terms and a settle
ment that is bound TO go ahead as
rapidly as Riverside, Pomona or Santa
Aua did when first put on the market
and the advancement in values will
be just as rapid.
Photographic views of Santa Ynez
and surroundings have been taken
and recoppied and placed in descripti e
books, which can be had of Sidney
Lacey at 106 Nor'h Spring street, Los
Angeles, the agent for these lands
and also any information as regards
lands, prices, etc. This is without
doubt one of the best investments in
the State to-day and will well repay a
visit to this section. Every informa-
ton with regard to these lands will
be furnished by Mr.. Lacey.

Chino valley Railroad.

After long and unexpected delays,
materials enough have arrived to iron
this railway from Ontario to Chino.
The iron is being laid and the work
will be completed toChino within two
weeks from date. The first locomo-
tive is long overdue and is liable to
arrive any day. If it were here the
whole track would be laid within one
week. The rails and track ma 'erials
were shipped from Johnstown, Pa, last
October, with guarantee" of deliv-
cry here in thirty days. This is a
sufficient explanation for the delay in
completing the road. In the course
of even delayed business, the locomo-
tive will surely arrive soon, and sew
eral trains run daily between Chino
and Ontario. Just as soon as the cars
are running Wells. Fargo & Co. will
establish an office here. We have q
daily mail now.

In addition to this large number OF
pieces of mail matter handled by the
carriers, about as much again was pl
in the boxes and handed through the
windows to transient visitors. In the
month of January, 1887, stamps Were
sold to the amount OF sc, 400, but this
year almost double that amount was
realized, the report showing that
$I1,17O was received for stamps alone.

The Carleton opera Company

The Carleton opera Company.
Commencing with tomorrow night,
the Carleton Opera Company will oc-
cupy the Grand Opera House, and
judging from the advance sale OF seats,
this engagement will be even more
successful than the first of a few weeks
since. During Mr.. Carleton's absence
he has changed the complexion of his
company somewhat by engaging Miss
Alice Vincent, who made hit
when here before, and Miss Tellula
Evans, who was also a favorite
here. Miss Lilly Post, who was
here a few weeks ago with him has
been left behind, but in other partic-
ulars the company is just the same.
Since his absence Mr.. Carleton has
obtained a large number OF new
dresses for his company, and these
will be used for the first time here.
The repertoire has been enlarged by
the addition Of Fra Diavolo. which
will be given twice. Mr.. Carleton
will 60 East from here.
