October 9th was the anniversary
of the great Chicago fire, and the
$50, OO0 wage-workcrs of the city
celebrated it by subscribing for the
Worlds Fair stock. About twenty
thousand books were circulated in all
the stores, factories and workshops
and an hour was designated by the
Mayor at which the workmen
knocked off. Everywhere the great
es, enthusiasm was manifested and,
it is thought that the total amount
subscribed will be something like
100000. The movement was intend
ed to popularize Chicago's effort to
secure the Exposition of 1892, and
Secretary Cragin says they are per-
fectly satisfied with the result.

The fallacy Of the free trade
argument in regard to the benefits
of raw material was clearly shown
in paper read before the wooden
manufacturers at their meeting in
New York comparing manufactures
of cotton and wool. I'm 1860 the
value of cotton maIufactures was
$115,671, ga while that of wool,
was about S65.595, 364. But in 1880
with a heavy duty on wool and free
cotton, the value of cotton manu-
features was l72, O9O.1IO, while
that of manufactures Of wool was
S265,292,8l3. In 1870 the product
Jon of cotton and wool per capita
was the same, $40 in each case,
while in 1880, with heavy duty on
wool, wooden manufactures had in
creased to 1894, and cotton manu-
features, with free cotton, had fallen
to 1888 per capita. In 1860 they
supplied 81 per cent and it was
agreed to-day that if it had not been
for mistakes made in revising the
tariff in 1888, putsIde of carpet
woods the American producers
would practically supply all the
wool now required for domestic
manufacture.

The territory OF Wyoming will be
knocking at the door at the next
session of Congress, for admission
as state. With a Republican
majority in both branches there is
but little doubt that her application
for statehood will be granted. The
rapid increase in the population is
shown by the fact that in 1850 the
census returns showed a population
of only 20, 600. In 1883 the Re-
publican candidate for delegate to
congress received 1881 and the
Democratic candidate ,557, within
1855 as many votes as population
in 1850. 1t is safe to say the voters
to-day would exceed the population
of 1880, SO that her population
would clearly entitle her to one
representative in Congress.

The Buena Park Creamery.


The work of putting up the condensed
milk factory at Buens Park is making
rapid progress. 1t will be ready for use
by the FIRST of next month. The South
ern Pacific is running spur track to the
establishment. The present capacity OF
the concern is for the milk of 5000 cows.
It can readily be enlarged to take the
milk of twice that number. A meeting
will be held at Buena Park tomorrow, to
which the farmers of that region round
about are invited to take counsel as to
how much milk will be forthcoming to
run the factory. In the district referred
to 1000 COWS could readily be support ID.
It is an ideal place for pasturage. Many
landowners are wide awake to the bene.
fits in store for them in the establish
ment of this factory, and ere seeding
their fields to alfalfa, with the intention
of going into the milch COW business.
The beauty of the thing is that the
man at the head Of the condensed milk
factory is experienced in the business.
He had a factory at the East, and nearly
all his product was sold to California.
This put plant in this State in his
mind, and he came out to investigate.
The result of his observations was that
he selected Los Angeles county az the
best place he found for the enterprise.
It is probable that if plenty of milk ie
forthcoming, he will add butter cream
cry and cheese factory to the condensed
milk plant,

very dark and tha streets quite deserted.
Edward strolled along slowly, all the
time expecting that he would soon be
overtaken by his brother and constantly
ON the watch for him.
At last he turned into Olive street,
and there discovered man standing
still in the middle of the highway. It
occurred to him that George must have
gone around by some other street and
was now waiting for him here. So he
walked softly, thinking to surprise him,
and when he came up to the man took
hold Of him by the arm.
The other turned around with sud-
den jerk and showed himself, not George
Lownes at all, but somebody else that
Edward had never seen before. Who
ever he was, he was badly frightened,
and before Lownes could say word he
drew q revolver and pushed it under his
nose, his hand trembling go that he
could scarcely hold the weapon rested
upon the trigger.
Now it was Lownes' turn to be fright
ened, and he jumped back and tuned to
run. Just at that instant the man
dropped the revolver, and moment
later, when the me IN came out from
under q cloud, it looked down on the
center of Olive street to see deadly
weapon lying there harmless and Edward
Lownes and stranger running for their
lives in opposite directions away from
one another.

Improving the Country.

James w. Kew has been in Pomona
during the past week, preparing for the
improvement of the twenty acres of land
he and his brother own, mile east of
this place. The land was bought from
the Pomona Land and Water Company
two years ago, and now MIR. Kew, who
has come from Canada, intends to settle
upon it and improve it. He has .n
abundance of water for the property, and
intends planting all the twenty acres to
fruits. He will devote ten acres to an
orange and lemon grove. The remaining
ten acres are to be set out to figs, English
walnuts, olives and guavas. About one
acre will be devoted to the production OF
small fruits. Mr.. Kew has ample means
and intends to devote the next few years
to thorough demonstration OF the posi-.
bilities of fruit culture in this region. He
will build a residence on his property
later, and intends making his permanent
home in this valley, which he pronounces
the fairest and most fertile he has ever
found in his travels on this continent

A Good Project.

The original owners of the San Pas
quail ranch were Spanish family named
Carlos. These people sold the ranch to
DR.. Griffin and he to the Indiana colony,
which was led to this land of promise by
the late D. M. Berry. The present rep
resentative Of the Carlos family is an
old lady well remembered here twenty
eight years ago. She had at that time
several beautiful daughters just arrived
at womanhood. The old lady is now in
circumstances less afHuent than she was
at that time. The people of Pasadena
have taken up the matter, and propose to
make little contribution as memento
to the representative of the family whose
ancestors once owned the spot where the
Grown of the Valley il. 1t is q very

The Califernia Exhibit

One of the chief attractions at the
south end of the Exposition, is that of
the Ventura county, Cal, exhibit of
dried and green fruits, vegetables, wines,
oils, etc. This handsome collection, the
only one from "The Golden State" is
due entirely to the enterprise of DR.. g..
A. Cutler, the General Manager of the
Chicago Colony. and illustrates what in
dividual pluck and energy can do in
matters of this kind. The Chicago Col
ony, as its name indicates, wes organized
in this city, left here in November last
for their homes in the Simi valley, Ven
tura county CAL, and es much of the ex-
hibit is from their immediate neighbor-
hood, it would certainly seem that their
claim to the "Garden of California" was
beyond dispute.
The suu-dried fruits, consisting of figs,
prunes, apricote, nectarines, peaches, etc.
are not only handsome to look at, but
exquisite in tasts and flavor. The evap-
Grated fruits, such as pears, apples, april
cots, nectarines, etc., are far ahead Of
anything ever brought to this market.
The crystalized fruits-oranges, figs,
not as handsome to the eye as the French
lIulb, Uub l6I hnOh0 VI tuC CI0uCA AL AUU-
ural taste of the fruit. The wines are
from the extensive establishments of the
Germain Wine Company and San Pedro
Winery. The oils, asphalt, bituminous
rock, etc., were contributed by Hon.
w. L. Hardison, of the Mission Transfer
Company. The big equashes, tall corn,
etc., were contributed by the farmers
Of the county. The honey is from the
extensive spiary Of Hon. @. E. Hoar.
TIE Ventura Cannery, the Santa
Paula Fruit Drying Works, and in fact
the whole county responded to the ap-
peals for assistance, the ladies as we'll.
The beautiful sea moss and fern work,
contributed by Mrs. Gotta, of Nordhoff,
Mrs. Bellah, Of Ventura, Miss Wood and
Mrs. Newman, Of Springville, are the es-
pacial admiration Of the ladies. This
booth is also well supplied with reading
matter, and these desirous of learning
something of the great "frait belt," will
find copy of Los Angeles or q Ven.
tura paper always on the table-a free
copy of either to all who call. Venturs
county is certainly the best advertised
county in the State. DR.. Cutler, as the
Vice. President of the California Aux
iliary," is doing good work for Chicago

Fair here. Chicago Sporting News.

ago by the Fairview company, who are
endeavoring to purchase the right-of-way

the tide land to the wharf. The purchase
is in fair way to be completed in few

The Shorthand Reporters.

The Shorthand Reporters
The Grievance Committee OF the Bar
Association did not get ready to make q
report in the matter of shorthand report
ers' exorbitant charges on Saturday, and
in consequence the association did not
meet on that day. 1t is expected that q
report will be made next Saturday. The
members of the committee have little TO
say, but there is shrewd suspicion that
much difficulty is experienced in getting
testimony. 1t is not probable that any
whitewash will be attempted or ormit-
ted. The committee is made of just the
material to get at the facts in the case.
The investigation may get beyond the
purview of the Bar Aeso ,iation, and the
final arbitrament of the affair may be in
the State courts.
