IT HAS been most unfortunate thing
for Southern California that no United
States Senator for this State ever came
from any part of this section. Indeed,
the California Senators have nearly al
ways been men whose interests conferred
in San Francisco or around San Fran
cisco bay. Already Senator Dolph of
Oregon is in Washington getting things
pertaining to his State we'll in hand with
the view of pushing things two or three
months from now. The particular inter-
est of the Webfoot State which demands
such early attention at the hands Of Mr..
Dolph is q proposed improvement at The
Dalles of the Columbia river, which will
make these rapids navigable, or practi-
cally so, by means OF a boat railway
around them. A commission was ap-
pointed some time ago to in
spect these Dalles, then visit
Europe and see how engineers there
overcome similar obstacles in the way of
navigation. This commission has already
made these necessary inspections and
report is being prepared which will be
favorable, recommending an appropria-
ton for the purpose. Senator
Dolph is Portland man, but
anything which improves the Columbia
river, or any other Oregon stream, will
be Of advantage to the metropolis Of the
Northwest. The interests of Oregon are
almost universally the interests Of Port
land. Unfortunately for Southern Cali
fornia the interests of this end of the
State are often quite part from those of
the Bay City. For this reason
our interests are generally grossly
neglected. The improvement Of
San Pedro harbor is a matter vital to
the interests of the city of Los Angeles,
and to those of this entire Southern
country. For twenty years the National
Government has been toying with its
improvement, but little more has been
done. 1t is quite time that really effect.
i've work should be done at this point,
and if it is not done at the coming ses-
sion of Congress, it will be quite in order
for this end of the State to pledge its
representatives in the next Legislature
to do all in their power to secure q
Southern California Senator.

A GREAT FUNERAL.
Twenty.One Victims of the Quebec
Disaster Buried.

QUEBEC, September 22.-The funeral
of the victims of the recent land slide
took place today. A body of ship.labor-
ers about one thousand strong, headed
by President Mahoney, led the process
sion. Then followed the police force
bearing costly flowers presented by the
City Council; then came fifteen hearses
containing the bodies of twenty-one vic.
Tins. The funeral service took
place at st. Patrick's church.
Father Hayden, assisted by Rev.
Father Welsh, celebrated the divine
service. After the service the procession
proceeded to Woodfield cemetery, where
twenty bodies were deposited in vaults,
prior to the final interment. Some 200
men are actively working at the debris
tonight and more corpses are expected
to be found shortly. The anxiety and un-
easiness into which the inhabitants of
this city were plunged by the catastro-
phe has not yet subsidized nor will it until
all traces of the wreckage have disap-
peared and the overhanging walls made
secure.

CERTAINLY the Government seems to
be in the main very fortunate in the new
vessels built for the navy. The ships
are passing the ordeal Of the various tests
imposed with much success. Mr.. Whit
ney and his associates in the Cleveland
Administration took great pains in secur-
ing the best models and plans obtainable,
and then let the contracts with an eye
single to business and so as to guard by
every devisable means against jobs and
frauds of all sorts. But it seems to be
difficult to secure bids for ships on the
same reasonable terms secured for
those just being turned off the
stocks. The Government is there
fore contemplating putting in at
least twof fully equipped plants for building

THAT the present National Administers
ton is the most unpopular that has d.
rected affairs in many years becon.e s
each day more and more apparent. Mr..
Harrison has been in Office but six
months, and in that time he has done
nothing to make his Administration
popular, while he has done much to
make it the opposite. At the beginning
he found himself handicapped by the
overshadowing presence of Mr.. Blaine.
That magnetic person has both the
powers of all electric force. He can re-
pei as we'll as draw, and it is question
whether be repels or draws with most
effect. He certainly is hated by a
round number of enemies. To leave
Mr.. Blaine out Of the Cabinet would

WILL the farmers of all classes in this
section take the HERALD's sound advice
given yesterday and form a great Pro-
ducers' Union, whose object it will be
to open up markets and uphold prices
for their products? 1t is the thing the
grangers must come to if they expect to
realize fair returns for their labor.
Such an organization here few years
ago put the orange markets straight,
and they have remained so ever since.
A great combine of all the producers
will have enormous weight in many
matters of vital moment to our agricul-
tural interests.

TROUBLE is brewing for the Republican
party in regard to the coinage of silver.
A determined effort will be made to have
the Bland bill put in full force at least !;
and the movement may 60 so far as to
call for the free coinage of silver, thus
putting that metal on a par with gold.
Colorado is leading off in the fight, as ap-
pears from telegraphic advices from
Denver. As the party is in power in all
branches of the National Government.
the leaders will be forced to take some
stand On this question. The West wants
money to develop the resources of the
region, and to pay off the big mortgages
on the farms. The Wall street men and
the money-brokers who put up SO much
of the corruption fund Of the late cam
paign are really monometalists at heart.
A lively fight seems to be in the cards.

Ingalls, Is Indignant.

Mr.. Ingalls, is that kind of an old
soldier whose fighting has all been done
in peace periods with breech-loading
mouth. During the war he satisfied his
patriotic and valiant impulses by serving
as Judge Advocate of q Kansas home
guard organization.
Nevertheless, Mr.. Ingalls, is promin.
emit figure in an Old Soldiers reunion
now in session in his State, and in a
speech there he has given expression to
the views and aspirations of old soldiers
OF his own type-sutlers, bummers,
camp-followers and stay.at.home militia
officers.
He declares that "the wealth of the
Nation increases at the rate of 1920, 000,-
600 with every tick of the watch"-a
statement which will astonish econo.
mists and drive statisticians mad-and
adds that the soldier learned it all and
is entitled to his percentage of it."
This last utterance sounds like the
plea of pirate, but it is only the conten-
ton of ingalls,, and Ingalls,, as all real
old soldiers know, is blatant, bitter.
tongued demagogue who habitually
speaks falsehood in well-turned phrases,
and for the sake of getting his own per.
centage of political advancement de-
grades his intellect to the stirring up of
strife and the cultivation of "envy,
malice, hatred and all uncharitableness.' p
Mr.. Ingalls, has an eloquent tongue
which he habitually uses for purposes of
evil. He is man of large ability, and
the fact is scarcely less than calamity
to his countrymen. He resembles Tan
ner in the recklessness of his talk, but
his talk is eloquent where Tanners is
dull, neon, where Tanners is only
foolish, and vindictively bitter where
Tanners is drolly extravaganza New
