EDIToR BULLETIN Whilst read
ing the gospel last Sunday( John III,
l-l2), a thought flashed through
my mind: "If Mr.. Horner had been
in Cana at that time, what a wise
lesson he might have given TO
Christ" That thought was merely
distraction, and a wicked one at
that. In general | sympathise with
that gentleman in his honest endea-
vors to stamp out intemperancc
winch is undoubtedly the fruitful
source of many evils. He seems to
be well posted on the rum question
as far as practical experience is con-
cerned. He Is at liberty to hold the
theory OF prohibition, which is his
own private opinion; he may even
try to make converts. Very likely
his plantation would gain by the sue
cess of forged temperance. Still, it
is to be regretted that the cn.ight-
ened writer does not content him
self with using sound arguments,
fully understood by himself. He
had no business to talk repeatedly
about Indulgences of which he
seems to have no correct idea. He
must have taken his notions on that
subject from writings composed by
ignorance, or by malice, or by both
combined. He accepted that rub
bish as the genuine doctrine of the
Church in the "dark ages" If Mr..
ii. knew this matter half as well as
10; ear old Catholic schoOlboy he
would never have compared lndul-
gences with Intemperance.
1 do not wish TO discuss this sub
iect at present. The doctrine of the
Church can he ascrrtained by con
sulting anysapproved Catechism OF
the Catholic religion. For the be
neiiL OF Mr., H., however, and OF
those misled hy his insinuation' al
low me to say a few words on thi:
| matter.
Indulgence, as defined by the Ca
thOlic Church, is not Il permission OF
license to commit sin in the future
nor does it remit the guilt or cterna
punishment of sin; it does, however
remit the remaining temporal pun
i.hmcnt after the siI. is forgiven by
the merits of Christ in the Sacra
menl Of Penance. This latter sup
poses q sincere repentance and {
real conversion of the sinners heart
the reparation Gas far AS possible,
of all the damages done to hi'
neighbor, with the desire to unite
with Our Saviour in giving satsfac
ton TO the Divine Justice for pas
sins. The conditions under whicl
the indulgences are granted by th'
supreme authority OF the Church
are voluntary good works, both in

EDITOR BulIETM:-W What is the
matter with the editorial department
of your conten porary-the "Adver-
tiser"! For al out month past the
editorials, and some Of the cores

seem to have been written by some
one who cannot be held accountable
for his actions.
The general characteristics of the

disguised carelessness of assertion,

the SAMOAN AFFAIR.

EpITOR BULLETIN: Permit me once
more space in the columns of your
paper to answer the correspondent
of the "Adverliser' of Jan. 2Sth,
whom | may call in imitation of his
own gentlemanly 60 style The long
handled Yankee friend of patriots.
He writes that the Germans make
a great hue aud cry because Klein,
etc, etc. Now the fact is the Ger
mans have done nothing of the kind,
ut least no information has reached
this shore to prove this assertion.
All the facts brought us is that an
adventurer belonging to Il nation
not as yet officially interested has
excited the natives into attacking
the small German forces which were
landed in order to protect German
interests, i. e. n German plantation,
(version Of the other side.
That the punishment will fall and
does fall, on the poor misled natives
is evident and natural, as no great
power will allow herself to be insult
ed by a weaker one, (vlde the llayti
affair.
But all this does not bear on the
point | intend to make, namely this,
that an American editor, who wants
to see the Germans thrashed, and
an American friend of patriots, who
wants TO see Mr.. Brandeis beheaded
though | do not blame the long
handled friend, because it was Oh
his part only retaliation, as / COM
mcnced the murderOus racket by
wishing that his friend, Mr.. Klein,
may adorn some tree in Samoa
should forget the maxim usually 80
generously adhered to by his nation,
namely, the old rule, ''Audiatur ct
altera pars.
The fact is that the whole trouble
in Samoa is caused by and through
the jealousy Of a few American trad
ers towards the German firm, whC
does not merely control one third
but in fact three-fourths of the trade
in Samoa, and these traders have
been intriguing for years in ordeI
TO bring about the present troubles
and have partly succeeded, as oc
currences will show, (vide Grinbaun
affair years ago),
Now, | think, we might let th
matter rest and not hurt each other
feelings until the evidence of thi
case is in. The BULLETIN has al
ready disproved assertions abou
this subject made in the "AdveI
tiser' by waiting for a little evi
dence, and think it but fair t
postpone judgment in this Who'll
case until both sides interested, j. {
the German long handled firm (b
the way, firm so respectable tina
it would be waste Of your yaluabl
space and of time to defend aghins
the long handled friends blood
curling insinuations) and the ie
American traders who ARE shieldin
themselves behind the poor natives
have pleaded their case.
Since writing the above j read tn
letter of your correspondent "Co'
mo" and thank that writer for hi
impartiality. Now, permit me I
add to my epistle that such higl
flowing terms as breaking falti
rising in dignity, resented indigna
tion, and further such terms as sea
pirates, dark deeds, prostitution q
ships, piratical outrages, etc, etc.

DRY WASHERS.
How Placer Mining is Done with
out Water.

h~W FAaCeE Mhhthx AS Dohe "keh
out Water.
Some days ago HERALD reporter had
occasion to inquire into the methods pur-
sued in placer mining by means of sort
of tanning machine such as is used in
cleaning grain. This is used where water
cannot be obtained for regular placer
washing. The tanning machine method
is designated by the misnomer of dry
washing" and this term will be applied
to the process here.
A couple Of years ago there was quite
an excitement about this way OF extract
ing gold from the dirt, and numerous ex-
periments were made at Monrovia, in
the San Gabriel cafion, and other places.
Recently less noise has been made about
the matter, but all the same good deal
of this sort OF work is going on.
The regular miners and the mining en-
gineers do not take kindly to the dry
wash" method of mining. Two gentle
men representing these pursuits were
first interviewed, and they were as unan-
imous in their opinions as "Poo-Bah" in
Mikddo. They stated that the machine
most in use was as perfect as machine
could we'll be. The principle was per-
fectly applied in the mechanical aPpara-
tus. Theoretically there was nothing to
add to it. But as these miners and mine
engineers took it, in practice it is a fail.

SINCE THE BOOM.
A Fair Sample of the Improvement
That Goes On.

A Fair sample OF the Improvement
That Goes On.
improvement in residence sections of
this city is very much inclined to ad-
vance in piecemeal. While there is
general advance all over the city, as is
shown by the number of residences and
business buildings, it often happens that
some particular spot will undergo
special boom. Building is always con-
tagious, and where one man begins
to improve his property, those who own
in the immediate vicinity, are very likely
to follow suit.
A very good instance of this is Bunker
Hill avenue and the adjoining streets.
Starting at Temple and Bunker Hill, let
one drive over the summit and back by
Grand avenue, taking in some OF the
cross streets. On the crown of the hill,
within the past six months, dozen or
more residences have been completed
and number are now in the course OF
building or of Improvement.
At Court street there are three two
story houses owned by G. L. Mansfield,
and two cottages owned by Mr.. Trantnm.
which have been built and finished since
the boom went down. Near Second is
Few house of three stories, costing about
So, 900, which Robert Perry has just
built. Between Second and Third,
Joseph Bouts is putting up q
very elaborate and pretty two story
residence to cost about $500. In this
same block number of people are max
ing additions to their residences or COM
pletely remodeling them. Miss jerry
back is having her house raised one story
and high basement inserted underneath.
GIN. Holton has put in an addition costing
about 81, 500. ]. H. Stewart, the cashier
of the Los Angeles County Bank, has an
addition costing about $4,000, and Judge
Brosseau is remodeling his place and
building wing on one side at cost OF
about 81 500. At the vacant lot num-
bered l31, bricks and lumber are on
hand, and the construction of residence
to cost about 81 900 will soon be begun.
The elegant residence of r. M. Baker has
been finished within year.
On the adjoining cross streets there are
several small dwellings either in process
of erection or recently finished. On
Grand avenue, near Second street, res
idence of unusual size and beauty is
nearing completion. 1t is the four-story
domicile of M. w. Connor. The exterior
is covered with much handsome carving
and the house, when completed, will be
an edifice of which, not only that section
alone, but the entire city will feel proud
Next door to it is the new residence o.
r. Larkin's, built since the boom is sup
posed to have died down. Also on Grand
avenue is the $1,000 new residence oi
Mr.. Sewers.
On Flower and Hope streets a good
deal of improvement is in progress, moi
only in the building of residences, but
also in the leveliDg off of lots preparatory
to building. The hill section of the city
takes its turn with the rest in seizini
upon every opportunity to gain in beauty
and comfort.

sistance the entire building wa
stroyed with most of its contents. ae

to the cellar was locked and the en-
ployes in the place had to work at 3 dis

carried out but these were all that was
saved, and as the nearest fire hyorsne
was two blocks away the engine Was OF

THE NATIONALISTS.
A ConStitutiOn Adopted by the A.
sociatioM.

Constitution Adopted by the AS
ISOLATION.
The Nationalists met yesterday after
noon in Upper Turn Verein Hall, which
as usual, was we'll filed. The proceed
ings opened with vocal solo by Ere
Coan, and then the Chairman read a
communication, setting forth some ideas
as to how the proposed great movenle ent
should be ina ugurated. He advised or
ganization and warned the association to
have nothing to do with politics. He
thought the aims of the movement could
be accomplished by capturing the M n3-
bers of Congress. The two great polit-
cal parties should, he thought, be allo Fed
to make their nominations and then ey
resentatives the association shouli ex-
tract pledge from the nominee to up.
port the measures of the Nationalist
when introduced in Congress. MI j.
Newberg read long essay on the Gins
and objects of the association, in which
he set forth in brief manner the ideas
contained in Bellamy'sbook. Carl Browne
talked for some time on the sewer ques-
ton. The Committee on Constitution
and Bylaws offered report which was
unanimously adopted and the meeting
adjourned.
