PLEASANT views are taken by some OF
our local railway agents as to the coming
winter. Some of them will be found in
the H ERALD's local columns today. The
excur sion people did much in the past
to spread broadcast over the East a
knowledge OF the attractions OF this sec
ton. 1t is encouraging to learn that
impressarios of immigration like DR..
Ennis, of st. Louis, are to enter the
arena anew this fall, and rush in solid
trains of sightseers and settlers. There
are plenty Of interesting things for the
former to see, and there is room for the
others to benefit themselves, inn
proving their condition by cast
ing their lot in section whose
soil is so prolific, whose resources
are 80 various, whose crops are 80
plethoric and of such large value. Last
year the trsDscontineptal roads raised
the rates to $50, an advance of $40, or
3331 per cent. over what had been the
rule before. They thought as many peo'
pie would come at the advance 81
had come at the old rate. The agents
eyes are opened now by the experiences
of last year. A lower rate than sec
would result in putting more money
in the purses of the companies than one
OF higher figure than that. The road:
that have large mileage in the State
are particularly interested in the attrac
ton of actual settlers into California
The tourist may come and go, and the
one round trip may be the beginning
and end of all the railroad fares he shal
pay for in the Golden State. The settler
who makes this his home is customer
for all time to come, and pays the loca
rates not only for passenger travel, bu
for freight traffic until he dies, and ther
he leaves his family to continue to en-
rich the railroads. A liberal policy il
the wise one to pursue.

SEVERAL of the Eastern States, among
them old Massachusetts,, crowned with
the cumulative wisdom of century,
and young Minnesota, pulsating with all
the vigor of new enterprise, have found
it necessary to modify the laws govern
ing the application in detail of the gen.
eral principle of Eminent Domain. AS
the statutes stand in California, the pro-
cesses of condemnation suits are slow as
the procession Of the equinoxes. 1t
sppsls the stoutest heart to look ahead
through the dark and labarynthine diff
culties lying before the man who seeks
by legal process to wrest private property
to public uses. The general prin-
ciple is of universal application. There
is no private title to property
that may not be destroyed if the public
good demands the uses of the property.
All that is intended to be reached in the
legal processes is that the individual be
paid the full value of that which the
community needs. The reformed stat
utes of enlightened commonwealth are
in consonance with this view. Any cor.
porstion seeking to condemn private
property for public uses, has only to sat
isfy the court that the matter is neces-
sary, or highly expedient, and that
when appraisements are made and
damages assessed the money will be
paid. This latter affair is settled by the
giving OF a sufficient bond for the pay
ment of whatevsr assessment shall be
determined upon. 1t would be we'll to
reform our State laws in this line.

THAT money is quite abundant in Los
Angeles is proved by very significant
fact. One of our leading real estate
operators is returning to the East capi-
tai sent to him to be invested here.
In one sense this is very agreeable, be-
cause it shows that those of our citizens
who are in need of accommodations, and
who could furnish acceptable security,
have no difficulty in being supplied.
But it is a mistake to remove this capital
to the East as long as real estate is so
cheap and bargains-genuine bargains
in eligible property are to be obtained.
1t will not be long before the capital
which finds no field in loans will be
tempted to invest in our low priced lands
and lots, and the moment the tide eets
that way the effect will be most crafty.

and rural, will begin in Los Angeles

THE Los Angeles Ice and Storage
Company import monthly from the
East $4,000 worth of hog products.
The freight alone on these hams,
flitches, ETC., amounts to fully
$4,000 a month. This company's
importations of other necessaries of life
are also quite large. This association
has ample capital, and is willing to buy
two or three hundred hogs a day at five
cents a pound. Why are they not raised

HE trust of the shorthand

THE trust of the shorthand reporters
is the greatest imposition in a small way
that the people OF California suffer from.
Justice is made intolerably expensive
thereby, and litigation is blocked. The
Board of Supervisors ought to take a
spirited action in the matter and it will
be sustained by the people. Five or six
dollars a day for mere mechanical ac-
complishment, with ten cents folio for
writing out notes, is liberality itself.

STRANGE views sometimes get into the
mental retina of otherwise sensible
. people. The other day some one con-
ceived the notion that there were too
many school teachers in the city who are
of the feminine gender. He wanted a
q cast-iron rule to regulate the proportion
of men to women. giving the wesrer of
the bifurcate garment large advantage
over the wearer of skirts. Now if any
where in the world petticoat
government is to be preferred,
it is where the control of children
is concerned. Any one who has had
much experience with teaching school
knows that, as broad rule,
the school "marm" is greatly to
be preferred to her more robust,
but more positive brother of the ferule.
But the true philosophy of the matter is
that pantaloon and petticoat are matters
immaterial and irrelevant in the selection
of school teachers. The woman has at
least as good a claim, so far as sex goes,
as the man. Gallantry and charity
WOulu give ucl LILO Hdu
is better able to face the world in other
lines and win his bread than the woman.
As handler of the shovel and the hoe,
as a plowman or teamster, his services
will be of more advantage to the COM
munity than the woman's. But, in
selecting a teacher, the whole de-
cision ought to turn on personal
fitness, not on sex; and the best to be
secured for the money, ought to be the
rule, irrespective of other considerations.
Then there is the Police Commission.
And, by the wav, there may be those
who will dispute our right to put these
smisble and estimable gentlemen in the
category of sensible people. But that
aside. Here are these gentlemen set to
select police force for the city. The
new Charter sets forth very good limita-
tions as to who shall wear a star. The
Commission supplement this by other
qualifications, the queerest ever resorted
to to determine such a matter. 1t was bad
enough when the rule was made reuuir-
ing that the "finest' should be found
named on the Great Register. What, in
the name of sense, has that to do with
the matter? Win this fact make cow
ard brave, drunkard sober or a cruel
brute kind? But the climax of imbecil-
ity is reached when to this is added the
supplemental rule that the star bearer
shall have voted at the last city election.
Not only this, but the rule is made retro
active; An er post facto force is given it,
and men who are on the force are put off
because they exercised the privilege
secured by right to all citizens to vote or
not, and for whom they like, and be
responsible to none but themselves for
the exercise of their franchise. Who
will believe that such stupid rule is
made in candor, is made in the interest
of good government, or is made by men
with the courage of their convictions? 1t
is made for ulterior ends. 1t is subter-
fuge, to cover up policy that will not
bear the light.

a motion looking to the impeach-

custom in Indo-China to make presents,
and if the charge of corruption was based
upon the acceptance of them, the same
charge might be made against himself.
His reply to the motion was to wave the
previous question, which was agreed to.
