EDITORS HERALD-In the matter of
county assessments, Mr.. Mason, it seems,
is gentleman of superabundance of
conscience" as he terms it, and has q
judgment superior to the representative
men in the Board of Trade and Chamber
of Commerce, and gentlemen of high
standing outside Of those organizations
throughout the county. He is also better
qualified, in his own judgment, than the
State Board Of Equalization, which re-
buked him last year. 1t is generally es-
timated in California that rain is worth
one million dollars an inch. Now, it is
to be hoped that Mr.. Mason will not find
this out, as then Los Angeles county will
be mulcted again in the sum of twelve
million dollars on the twelve inches Of
water which has already fallen to date.
For conscience" sake, don't let him
hear Of it. CITIZEN.

General Gordon ora Southern
Loyalty.

Gen. Jno b. Gordon of Atlanta, who was
chosen general of the United Veterans Con
federate Association, which was organized on
the 10th OF June last, has written his letter of
acceptance, addressed to the ex-soldiers of the
Confederacy. The General expresses his gra-
iticatiou, etc, calls attention to the objects
of the association and asks the cooperation not
only of the survivors of the Southern army,
but also of that contingent, the SONS of veter-
ans The honor Of the American Republic,
says tue General, the just power OF the Fed
eral government, the equal hts Of the States,
the Integrity of constitutional union, loyalty
to the law and the enforcement of all orders
have no class of defenders more true than old
defenders of the South and their worthy des-
cendants. But principle and strength Of
chaE8eter is idealized IN cherishing memories
OF !. &c deeds whether crowned with success
or consecrated in defeat. Whether the
Southern people under their changed conhi-
ton may ever hope to witness another ciyii-
cation which shall equal that which began
with their Washington aud ended with their
Lee, it is certainly true that the devotion to
their glorious past is not only the surest qua
rautee of future unity, but is also the strong
est claim they can present to the confidence
and respect of other settions of the Union.
! rejoice that the org laization, so long neg
lected. has at last beef perfected, and call
upon veterans in every late and community
wherever ex- -Confederauts may reside, to rally
to the support of the association.
