THE Tribune is in great travail over
the Federal offices in Los Angeles, and
displays profound anxiety to have the
Democratic officials turned out. On the
other hand, the Times shows a marked
Difference to the Civil Service professions
of its party, and would be quite resigned
to seeing the present incumbents hold on
till the expiration of their commissions.
In this little contest the attitude of the
Times is by far the most consistent and
respectable. The hypocrisy of the Chi
oago platform would be exemplified in a
very signal manner if number of COM
petent and attentive officials were decap-
itated simply to make places for lot OF
hungry ofice-seekers. The fervor of the
Tribune arises from the fact that the next
friends of its controllers are supposed to
have tha inside track in the scramble for
the flesh pots. The 30th of June is the
end of the fiscal year. and if that date
passes without any removals the prob
ability that incumbents will be allowed
to serve out their commissions will be
greatly increased.

him in the penitentary.

THE Cross railway is an applicant for
franchises over certain streets of Los
Angeles, and, if the council grants this
concession, Pasadena will have greatly
improved railway facilities, as Captain
Cross promises good service. This road
will pass through Garvanza. The Board
of Public Works yesterday inspected the
ground, and will doubtless recommend
to the Council the granting OF the priv.
lege. That railway building is still quite
lively in the Angelic City is shown by the
tac: that the Elysisn Park street railway
is seeking franchise by which it can
run its cars to the heart of the city. Both
of these franchises will probably be
granted at the meeting OF the Council on
Monday.

as a separate organization from the
Union Pacific proper, with the hope that
by separate management it would be
able to earn operating expenses. On
May 18th the manager of the division
made a reduction in the wages Of
the engineers and firemeu on certain
special runs. This action brought to-
gether the Grievance Committee of the
Union Pacific system, who have claimed
that the executive officers have no power
to make separate organization of lines

General Manager Kimball offered to leave
the matter to arbitration. The Commit

Of-a-Gun ImpOster.
SAN Francisco, June 20.-The EGam'
iner's Boston special says: The Cor
hams, of Boston, are very rich people,
and the family is scattered somewhat.
Arthur residing in the West and another
brother in Denver. Richard Gays that
Arthur will not return here for
ten days and will go west again soon.
When shown the dispatch &C encerning
the agreement with Williams, he said it
was all an absurdity and that Arthur
never signed paper agreeing to support
Williams, though he might have signed
some kind of paper for him. He is
simply levying blackmail and his brother
has been generous with him. Williams
was arrested in Chicago Tor
diamond robbery in Gin
cinnati. He has travelled through
the west, and Arthur has sent
him money when he was without it, but
Williams must have beaten other people
to ave got to San Francisco, for Arthur
cut him off some time ago. He never
gave him $4,000, for he could not afford
to. There is no secret or fear of scandal
and the draft will never be honored
Williams talk is all bosh and the scamp
is an impostor.

INDIANAPOLIS, June 20.-On November

Washington, Ind, was found tied to a
from ear to ear. His death was thought
to be case of suicide. A few days ago,
while laboring under religious excite
ment, Mrs. Charlotte Allen, the seventy
year-old widow of the dead man, con-
fessed to two colored servants that she
committed the crime. She said that she
and her husband had trouble as to who
was the rightful owner of the farm, and
to settle the dispute she killed him.

TIE next Presidential election will be
an affair of good sense rather than states
manship, unless some detail OF inter-
national complications, which nobody
can now forecaste, intervenes. Ii GOOD,
common sense Democrat who is IN line
with his party is nominated, he will be
elected overwhelmingly. If he is simply
the choice of Mr.. John G. Carlisle and
Mr.. Henry ]. Watterson, OF the Louis
vile CoEier-Jottrnal, the Republicans
could nominate a yellow dog and have a
walksover. The Democratic choice is re-
stricted to two propositions: Cd Gov
ernor Hill. of whom the Republicans are
very much afraid, and who, when
Grover Cleveland carried New York
by $4,000 for Governor, carried
the Empire State for Lieutenant
Governor by 10000; and who, when
Cleveland lost New York by $4,000 to
Harrison, carried it by nearly 10000,
all of Hills we'll. pronounced friends vot-
ing for Cleveland, and all of Cleveland's
Mugwump friends voting against Hill.
That was of itself one Of the most remark
able developments in American political
history. The fact that Mr.. Carlisle and
Mr.. Watterson are busily engaged in get
ting up organized utterances against the
candidacy of Governor Hill simply shows
thet gentleman's strength, which will
not be shown prematurely. Running
campaign simply for glory, and on the
one-man principle, was exhausted las
fall. (2.) The Democratic party is through
with such expensive vagaries, and will
probably not adventure the stupid gams
again. This time it will insist upor
naming its own candidates and indicat
ing it's own policy, in which event i
| could not do better thing than in nom
mating General A. E. Stevenson, of Hi
nois. for President, on platform of fret
coinage of silver and square protection
for American industry, with corporation
and trusts held to strict accountabilit,
and the understanding that neither Wal
street, New York, nor Change no
Leadenhall street, London, should hav'
the slightest voice in determining wha
ought to be genuine American policy
which is another name for the Demo
cratic party properly administered.

PARIS, June 2O.-A bill passed yester-

The Parnell Commission.

LONDON, June 20 AT meeting of the
Parnell Commission today, Thomas P.
O'Connor, member of Parliament, was
examined. He stated that the turning
point in the agrarian struggle in Ireland
was the rejection of the Compensation
for improvement bill. Thereupon ten
ants were compelled to combine in &C.
cordance with Parnell's policy, which
substituted constitutional agitation for
revolution and for secret combination.
O'Connor denied that either the League
or he sympathized with crime.

THE singular immunity of California
from all great convulsions of nature must
by this time have impressed itself upon
the minds OF the people of the East. At
one time a great scare was created by our
earthquakes, the last considerable one.
that of the spring of 1872, having oc-
casioned some trifing damages, but Of
no serious moment when compared with
the disaster which dismantled Charles
ton. South Carolina. In Inyo county, in
1872, there were some lively "shakes, z"
and they tell story of farmer who was
chasing colt seeing it disappear in
rent of the earth. But since then the
center of seismic disturbances has un-
questionably, at least as respects the
territory OF the United States, been
transferred to the Atlantic Coast. We
are not only blessed with immunity from
cyclones, billiards. and disastrous floods,
but the temperature here is so mild and
equable that our meteorological draw
backs are reduced to minimum. Sum
stroke is unknown in California. So
dry and rare is the air that
farmers can work in the fields when
the mercury has climbed to figures that
would make it certain death to do the
same thing in the East. Hydrophob ia
is unknown in the Golden State. When
to all this is added the fact that the land
and sea-breezes, alternating daily, make
the summers delight, and the most
delicate flowers bloom in the open air
all through the winter, as is notably the
case in Los Angeles, the wonder is not
that this city and county have grown 30
rapidly, but that there is not general
hegira from the Eastern States to place
80 highly favored. The blizzard of the
winter of 1887 SS, and the floods and
cyclones of the current year, ought to
bring multitudes to region where ma
ture never takes on repellant moods, but
delights rather in cherishing mankind.
