The Order of Masonry is the pro

while protesting no particular creed

Igious opinions, it is closely allied,

NJ. f. Ingalls,, president of the Big
Four" railroad, is the latest candidate
on the democratic side for senatorial
honors. Payne and Brice would find
him a formidable rival if by any pos
sibiIity the next legislature should be
democratic. Payne, Brice and In

boodIers, therefore, look forward to
the fi0ht with a remarkable degree Of
satisfaction, born OF the knowledge
that if the democrats should by any
possibility happen to secure the legis-

would prove a rich harvest for the

improve. Beneticient are the effects of the

SEWAGE WATER FIGURES.
The Produce shipped from Station
I'm the Vernon Bistri,

The Produce shipped from stations
In the Vernon Distri,t.
What the sewer water of this district
is worth may be estimated from some
figures given by the Southern Pacific,
which goes through the district where
the water is now carried. There are two
stations in the Vernon district; these are
Winthrop and Vernondale. The former
of these was established late in the year
1888, and before the first of January,
1889, had exported 6S carloads of oranges,
vegetables and general farm produce. In
the first six months of 1889, $50 carloads
were sent out from this same station.
From Vernondale, which was established
at the beginning of 1889, $50 carloads
were sent out in the first six months of
the year.
These figures include both local and
through freight. A good deal of the pro-
duce grown in these places is carried
through Los Angeles to other points in
the State.
As matter of fact these are about the
only stations in this section OF the
country where produce to any consider
able amount is grown and exported.
Omitting barley it is doubtful whether
all the other freightage OF this part OF
the county would equal that OF Vernon
dale and Winthrop. These ara resi- Its
that come from the use of sewage on the
lands and from that alone. The scheme
of the Council, it might be added, pro-
poses TO empty the sewage in the ocean.
