WITH the Republican Convention to
come off about the middle of August it
is yet early in the day to claim that the
candidate has been already selected, but
it is quite apparent that Col H. H.
Markham, of this county, is away in the
lead. There is plenty of time, however,
between now and the day of the assem-
bling of the Convention, for the appear
ance of formidable contestants. 1t is not
always healthy sign when the aspir-
ants for gubernatorial honors are reduced
to one man. The specter of the cele-
brated "off year" doubtless has the effect
of making Col. Markham's competitors
few and far between.

ORCHARDIsTs should exercise extraor-
dinary care in keeping their trees clean.
A sprig from an apricot tree was exhi-
bited in this Office yesterday which
shows that a new species of scale has
made it's appearance hereabouts, which
has no resemblance to any we have pre-
viously seen. Hitherto the apricot has
been free from any pest of the kind. 1t
would not be pleasant after the thorough
work which has been done by the vedolia
cardinals to have our congratulations
marred by the havoc of new parasite.
1t ought to be exterminated before it
has had time to spread. A pleasant
note reaches us from Orange county.
Readers of the HERALD will remember
the havoc that was wrought in
the raisin vineyards of that county
three or four years ago. The
work of destruction was almost
universal, and many beautiful
vineyards were uprooted outright by
their owners. These have been re-
planted in many cases, and the new
VlueS are lOOklIlS vigorous anu Utility.
The people of Orange are confident that
they have seen the last of the pest and
are looking forward to the old prosperity
in raisin growing. The time is rapidly
approaching when Mr.. Robert Barton's
theory of the destruction of the vine
pest will be tested. All over Southern
California the vines this year are look
ing healthy, and the expectations of
vineyardists run high. The announce
ment that the pest had been extirpated
would give new life to the wine and
brandy interests of Los Angeles and the
adjoining counties.

FRIDAY, APRIL 25, 1890.
OUR WATER SUPPLY.

A full supply of pure water is of the
highest Importance to all communities.
1t is more essential in maintaining the
health and happiness of a people than
climate, it matters not how excellent it
may be, ,and how charged with the health
giving tonic, ozone. 1t must be remem-
bered that about so per cent. of all the
water we drink goes Immediately into
the circulation of the blood, and however
Mother Nature may try in her wonderful
processes to purify the water, in spite of
this it goes into the system charged with
all the contaminations it has met with,
or loaded with all the mineral salts it
carries in solution. The process may be
slow one, and yet as surely as
night succeeds the day, bad water
poisons the system, breaks down its in
tegrity, and oftentimes the different
forms of diseases are directly traceable to
the water used for domestic purposes;
and, if not so easily traced, cause ply
sicians to wonder why so many patients
succumb to diseases where the violence
of attacks would not suggest fatal ter
mination. While we have always
championed the advantages of our own
city, and in reason and justice gave
praise to all it's unrivaled possibilities,
yet we must confess we have always felt
that we were inclined to draw the line
ON the water we were compelled to drink
in this city.
The water has surely never been what
it might have been, and has oftentimes
been positively unpalatable. Our city
cannot afford to allow this state of affairs
to exist; in fact, it threatens our future
growth and development.
While we do not feel inclined to take
sides in the controversy which is re-
ported to have sprung up between the
old company, using the valley water of
the Los Angeles river, and the new COM
pany, which has lately received fran
chise from the city authorities, and pro-
poses to bring the waters from the
mountains into our city; yet if it be
true that the latter water is so far
superior to that of the Los Angeles
river, as is claimed for it, we will
hail with delight the advent of the new
supply. Nor do we feel that the old
company should view with displeasure,
the expression of these views, for should
it be superseded entirely in furnishing
the drinking water for the city, it still
has grand future as was stated in the
interview with Mr.. Caswell, published
some time since, in its irrigating posi-
bilities. The old company would there
fore, according to Mr.. Caswell, not be
injured, while the people of this city
would be benefited to an enormous ex-
tent by using the mountain waters
taken from a point above all possible
pollution and with pressure, it is
claimed, of over six hundred feet above
the datum plane of the city.

MONEY is abundant in Los Angeles for
gilt-edged security and the rate of inter-
est has dropped from two to four per
cent. A considerable loan was made on
ranch property at 8 per cent. gross,
which, considering the mortgage tax, is
a very reasonable rate. A gentleman
who has had considerable money to
place on loan, the other day sent a large
quantity of it back East, finding that he
could get better rates for it there. This
follows on the heels of the reduction in
the rates of interest by the Hibernia
Bank of San Francisco few
weeks ago. A leading Los Angeles
banker assures the writer that there is a
great abundance of money here seeking
investment. He added that the famous
"bed rock" had been reached and passed
in Los Angeles, and that matters were
decidedly on the up grade. Two years
have been put in in liquidating the trans
actions growing out of the boom, and
nearly all old deals have been adjusted.
The business men also report much
improved condition of affairs.
Los Angeles herald., 1890-04-25
THE DEMOCRATIC CURRENT.

The Republican aspirant for political
honors nowadays must be endowed with
good deal of the Mark Tapley spirit.
The elections which have lately taken
place all over the United States are cer-
tainly not calculated to make the average
member of the grand old party hilarious.
From all quarters notes of woe reach the
party of Quay and Wanamaker. The
Democratic victories in Ohio and Iowa
are now old stories, and it is not neces-
sarv to go back to them to point politi-
cal moral or adorn a partizan tale. The
recent municipal elections in the Buck
eye State are, if possible, even more en-
couraging. The Democrats have carried
Cincinnati, Cleveland, Columbus, Toledo
and Dayton, many of them by over
whelming majorities. The Hon. James
H. Manning, son of the late Daniel
Manning, was elected Mayor of Albany,
New York, by a majority of 7,245. The
elections in Harrison's own State have
gone Democratic pretty uniformly, his
home, Indianapolis, being carried by
a majority of from 1,200 to 1900 as
against the 300 Republican majority of
two years ago. The local elections in
Michigan and Connecticut have gone
heavily against the Republicans. Away
out west, in Montana, the scene of pc
culiar Republican methods, scathing
rebuke has been given the leaders of
that corrupt organization. Helena,
which is usually Republican by four to
six hundred majority, went Democratic
by from three to four hundred. So uni
versal is the revolt from the Republican
party that it seems to make no differ
ence what the previous predictions of
city or town may have been, a Demo-
cratic victory is a thing of course. For our
Republican friends to attempt to main
tain cheerful air under such circum-
reminds one of nothing so much as
whistling in a graveyard. Universal
disgust with the hypocrisy and in
efficiency of Harrison's administration
has had much to do with this general
flop over from the party of great moral
ideas, and what Harrison failed to con-
tribute to the grand result may be
passed to the credit of Speaker Reed
and to the Republican majority of the
Committee of Ways and Means, who,
instead of meeting the expectations of
the people for reduction of the war
tariff, have increased it. Verify, the
good work goes bravely on
Los Angeles herald., 1890-04-25

TwENTY-oNE Cinnamon, who came
over the line from Lower California, are
now under Indictment in the United
States District Court of this city under a
supplemental law whose provisions have
not been generally understood. By the
terms of the Scott bill Cinnamon who
had succeeded in crossing the border
were simply again sent over the line to
the place from which they came. This
is no punishment, and is as little
of preventive. John Chinaman
simply watched his chance and tried
the experiment over again, no doubt
in many instances with success. By the
statute under which these Mongolians
are to be tried, entering the country
illegally is made misdemeanor, the
punishment of the offense being i'm
prisonment for not more than year or
fine of $1,000, one or both, at the dis
cretion of the Judge. There is some
thing decidedly deterrent in this last
statute, and it pulls John up with a
round turn.

THE city authorities are at last mov-
ing in the matter of putting the roads
which lead from the city in something
like fair condition. Those who use
the Mission road have had reason to
congratulate themselves of late, and now
the people vino live out in the direction
of the San Fernando and Tejunga val
leys are about to have benefit. 1t is
high time that the Board of Supervisors
and the City Council should put their
heads together with the view Of creating
number of splendid boulevards. The
famous Arlington drive is a perpetual
reproach to Angelefos.
