Removes From Hartford to P1Gtsburg.
 MT. George W. Westinghouse, jr., of air. break fame, has purchased 8 controlling in terest in the Warehouse Electric and Manu- featuring company of Hartford, and contem- plates the immediate removal of the plant tc Pittsburg, Penn. The change is made to get larger accommodations, 8 factory many times larger than they have had in Hartford being required. The factory they now move into has accommodations for 1000 work men. The failure of Hartford capitalists to take sufficient stock in the enterprise is also assigned as the reason why the concern did not stay in Hartford.

  English and Farnam Drives and
 West Haven Drives.
 To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 Although late in the season, these drives to the mountain and the mountain top itself are in some respects more attractive than ever. First the braoing mountain air, min gled with the wind coming from the Sound and ocean, is a health-healing panacea. Next, the roads, with no mud or dust. Then the enchanting views in more open, wide- finally the improved surroundings of the monument, revealing new beauties and causing well deserved admiration. On Mon- day last focks of quail were ranging the fields prettier and as tame as chickens.
 The West Haven drives are in fine condi- tion. Both those from the city and back and those intervening in the village and around it, and those by the sea and shore. The immense extent of these flat meadows surely betoken at no very distant day great city, with every water and railroad ads vantage. It will be our Brooklyn or Jersey City, when New Haven becomes another New York. Could our city's name be changed now to Fair Haven, instead of New Haven, or, still better, have it's own Indian name, Quinnipiac (rather than Quinnipiac) would it not be good now in it's infancy age to so christen it before it's soon coming 1raatnAsa3

 Local Humors of the Oampaign-Exas-
 perated at Defeat-The Dead Crow
 Takes a Flight.
 A prominent New Haven gentleman had gentle reminder recently that his favorite candidate for the presidency, Grover Cleve~ land, had been ingloriously defeated. He was a strong Cleveland man and Democrat to the backbone, and had counted confidently on Cleveland's election. The presumption is that he backed his opinion up with some of his money in several disastrous bets. He req turned home last Friday evening in no pleas
 ant frame of mind. Bet after bet had been
 paid and the news had rolled up more and
 more gloomily for our Democratic friend all
 the week. His wife greeted him at the door
 of the sitting room with genial face, and holding out a basket tied up and the contents covered with napkin with card attached, said here is some token of friendly regard, I should judge, from some kind friend. have not opened it as it was addressed to you, and presume it is something very nice from the appearances. The sturdy Democrat relaxed from his gloom trif1e. The clouds began to break. He severed it's cords and large bird appeared ! to view It had red silk ribbon tied to it's neck, and on @ card inside the basket it was written, Democrats should now eat crow" With a mighty bang the remains of the
 unfortunate crow sped across the room 1 regardless of expense, thrown by the vigorous arm of the irate adherent of Cleveland, and
 smash went $20 looking glass, which the ! dead crow struck vehemently. With the
 shivering of the mirror consternation seized the Democrat, and, meekly tottering to the doorway, he announced his intention of retiring immediately to bed and woo the gentle Goddess Sleep.

THE TOTAL TOWNS.
Here are nearly $50 towns accounted

than 100 are in Los Angeles county.
They are of all ranks as to population
and other importance. The central city
has nearly 100000 souls. Pasadena has
$1,000. Pomona ranks at least 5000.
Santa Ana stands shoulder to shoulder
with Pomona. Monrovia is not two

The real estate sales in this county in
the months of June, July, August and
September, 1887, eclipsed in volume any
thing of the kind ever put on record in
the world. The sales averaged during
the four months in question at from over
Sic, ,000, GOO to nearly $l2 100000 in each
month. That business was done largely
by local dealers. During the previous
winter spectators had cleaned out near
ly all their holdings to new settlers.
They had made large sums in these
transactions, and they proceeded to load
up for the winter campaign. In three
days sales of $1,000,000 in magnitude
were not by any means rare. Great
ranches were bought up by syndicates
and cut up into small farms for the pur-
pose of selling them to actual settlers.
During the present year there have not
been recorded any such sales. The
greatest number of these ranches have
gone into the hands of dealers and have
been cut up. Sales of these lands in
small farms are going on at no slow pace.
Nearly $500 transfers of realty in one
month is a figure that does
not mean dull market. Of that num-
Der nearly 1000 are at sums running
about 81 900 each, and about as many
more are for sums ranging below
81 900 each. The lowest daily sum of
sales is nearly $4,000, while the
million. In this land OF the "boom"
these transactions are supposed to indi-
cate a quiet market; but in any other
section they would be brave figures in
deed. There is certainly no wild rush
going on in speculation. The dealing 10
strictly legitimate; purchases are made
by actual settlers and are for immediate
improvement. The feeling one of great
confidence in real property. Holders
have cast up their accounts they are
able to see just where they stand there
is an utter absence of selling pressure,
and strong feeling OF certainty that the
coming winter will be marked by very
large influx of people from the East who
will be home-seekers, and as such buy
ers of real property. At this particular
season of the year it is nearly always
easier to buy piece of property at a
rather moderate price than is the case
later in the year, when there are three
times as many enquirers in the market
and when holders are sure of ettecting a
sale to-day. This has been the rule all
the years, with the single exception of
1887. This year will follow the rule
rather than the exception which proves
it.
THE CURRENT MONTH.
To show that the sale Of lands is not
slow here at date, the following resume

THE BIG BOON.

How Land Has Sold Here for the
Past Few Years.
All the world has heard of the big
boom in real estate sales in Los Angeles
since 1880. A very large number of
people have become independently rich
in these transactions. The cold facts are
always the most satisfactory. Here they
are: 1882, $6,393, ,139; 1888, $9,14s, ,131
1884, $S,954 $40; 1885, 1856, ,S52; 1885,

Neither OF these cities quite matches
US, nor does Kansas City. But they do
enough real estate business to show that
there is a red hot demand for that sort of
investment in other places as we'll as in
Los Angeles. The reason why we run
away from them all is found in our
climate, whose record is given on page
