OF course our Los Angeles contemporary
knows that Mr.. Clunie's candidacy for the
Senate is not to be taken seriously. This
is not the year to elect Democratic Sena-
tor. The Republicans have their inning so
far as the Legislature is concerned this
year, and the Democrats take the chances
of 1892 when a Legislature will be elected
to fiji the vacancy caused by the expiration
of Senator Hearsps term. Mr. Clunie is a
rather smart young man who will neve +
stand in Mr.. Hearst's way. He will be
content with the Fifth District until in the
fullness of time there is an absolute Sena-
torial vacancy.
But we would suggest to our Los Angeles
friends that the less talk about South

Noted Men Who Biusbed and Were Con-

The writer, says the Boston Journal,
knows it for fact that Caleb Cushing,
who, with the exception of Rufus Choate
(par mobile fratrum), was the best man to
sit and listen to he has ever been acquainted
with, was substantially dumb in the society
of women. He either did not know how to
talk to them or he would not and he could
scarcely look in the face of one of them
without blushing. He could not look them
fairly in the eyes, in fact, nor could he men
either, for that matter. There seemed to
be an unaccountable timidity and shrinking
about him, as there was even about Choate
himself great man as he was.
And the writer would remark in passing
one evening at one of the large hotels in
Boston there was reunion for some pur-
pose of the graduates of Harvard College in
and about Boston, and Choate was one of
the invited guests. The late brilliant To-
siah Quincy, junior (as he was them, pre-
sided at the table with his usual inimitable
grace and piquancy. While the company

gait and his head down, looking as con-

glimpse of the writer, he rushed eagerly
toward him, and, grasping his arm, said
substantially, You must help me up TO the

AN "oR1GINAL PAoKAGE" CASE.

The Cincinnati Brewing Company some
time since sent one Charles Sherman to
Leechburg, Pa, with stock of beer in the
original packages-barrelS. half-barrels and
kegs. Leechburg is prohibition town in
prohibition county. and was selected by
the Ohio company to test the reach of the
recent original package decision. When
Sherman had sold a pretty good lot Of
beer he was arrested OH a charge of vio-
lating the laws by selling liquor without a
license; also that he had sold liquors to
minors and men of Incorporate habits.
Sherman admitted that he had sold beer
in kegs, half-barrels and barrels, but de-
MED that lie had sold liquors to minors or
persons of Incorporate habits. The Judge
ruled that it was mere question of fact to
determine whether the packages sold were
the identical and unbIoken cases shipped
from Ohio to Mr.. Sherman. II the jury
found that they were it followed that
Sherman had a right to make such sales
according to recent decision Of the Su-
preme Court. But the Judge instructed tine
jury that if Sherman should Je found
guilty Of selling to minors and Incorporate
men he would come under the clause OF a
Pennsylvania law prohibiting such sale {;
for. while the State might not prohibit the
sale of the Original packages" the right
to protect its citizens, which the minor and
Incorporate clause was designed to do,
came more directly within the police pow
ers of the State. The jury acquitted Siber-
man Of selling liquor without license and
of selling to minors, but found him guilty
Of selling to persons of known Incorporate
habits. The decision was all the Cincin-
natl Brewing Company wanted. The right
to sell in the original package was reeog-
nized, and its agent could be required not
to sell to minors or persons Of known in
temperate habits. Under this decision
prohibition town in a prohibition county
can be flooded with liquors SO long as the
vendor takes care to sell in the original
package and not sell to minors or men Of
incorporate habits. The high license paid
in towns and counties that accepted the
high-liceDse law of the State would become
of little value to the holder under the de-
cision that liquor might be sold in the
original package without license.

PoSToFFICE SITE.

One OF the Postoffice Site Commissioners
is reported as saying that opposition to the
location at Second and Howard streets has
greatly lessened. One of the objections to
this location in the first place was the fact
that in the opinion of experts the lots COM
prising that location were bonded to spec
ulator, who offered them at about 40 per
cent above their market value. Now there is
no objection to land speculation as an occu-
patton, but in this case the Government ex-
poets to buy site at about its market value.
a great deal has been said of the made
quacy of the first appropriation, but the
force of these representations would be
much impaired if it should appear when
the selection is finally made that the Gov
eminent has paid $4,000 for a 100000 site.
There should not be any speculation in a
transaction of this nature. The very fact
that there is a difference of 100000 be-
tween the estimated value of the Tehama-
street lot and the appropriation available
for site, will inspire the interrogatory if
this margin of profit had not something to
do with the lessening of the opposition to
the site in question.

OUR "KINGS."

For once the ECamiRer is engaged in
work which meets general approval. Its
exposure of the shams perpetrated under
the head of personal biographies is at once
cruel and thorough. The public is allowed
to see exactly how crowns have been won
and the means employed by "king- max
ers" to procure subjects to crown. The ex-
posture is opportune, as the Chronicle has
gone largely into the business. if the APP
pearance of its last Sunday issue may be
accepted as an indication of the direction
its enterprise will take in the future. 1t
was not exactly kind in the Examiner to
commence this expose just as the Chronicles
king making factory was getting to work,
but the exigencies of business sometimes
drive competitors to acts of unkindness.
We nave some sympathy for the three or
four really prominent men whose histories
were given, doubtless, without compensa-
ton to give character to the rtf-raff who
got place by paying for it. They Will suf-
fer in consequence of being made to illus
trate the point of the old adage that "a dog
is known by the company it keeps"

Prince Augustin Yturbide of Mexico,
who is reported by special kilograms to be
under arrest in the City of Mexico for Sc

criticising the Administration of President
Diaz is young man OF "a years of age and
well known and popular in in Washington.
His career has been very romantic. His
grandfather was the Emperor Yturbide,
who sat on the throne of Mexico for only a
few months. His father was educated in
the University of Georgetown and married
Miss Alice Green, one of the bellies of
Washington during the war of the REBEL
ion. During the reign of Macmillan in
Mexico, that Inflated adventurer aud the
Empress Carlotta adopted the young
Prince as the heir to their property aud the
throne of Mexico, and when POOR Carlotta
left Mexico to appeal to the powers of Eli-
rope and the people for aid TO re-establsh
her husband upon the throne she took the
little chap, then an infant, with her. But
his mother, Mrs. Alice Green Yturbide. met
the Empress at Havana and recovered her
child, who was brought to Washington and
has lived here most of the time since.

mocracy," and the young Prince. the heir
of two eX- EmperoTs, took radical grounds
in favor of popular government. Immedi-
ately after his graduation he went with his
mother to the City of Mexico and took a
course Of military training in the National
School at Chapultepec, and was afterward
commissioned as Lieutenant in the army.
Last fall he obtaiued leave of absence and
spent the winter in Washington, where he
has been a conspicuous figure in society
and favorite, both because of his quasi
rank and his attractive personal qualities.
He returned to Mexico only few weeks
ago, and announced his safe arrival by teie-
graph to his friends in Washington.
His regiment is stationed at San Juan de

was made. His friends here regard the

WHAT WE LOST.

The New York Tribune speaks of the
8100-ton cruiser, which has been awarded to
the Cramps in spite of the fact that the
Union Works Of San Francisco put in the
lowest bid, as designed to be 1.-THE strongest,
fastest and best cruiser afloat in any navy
of the world" While San Francisco will
always regret that it was not given a fair
chance to build cruiser that is designed to
be the best all-round war-vessel afloat, we
will join in the general hope that the
Cramps VIII construct a vessel that will
realize all the anticipaJions of its designers.
The S100-ton cruiser is not yet named, but
it will likely be called the New York. We

ImPoRTANr OMISSIONS.

The Chronicle on Sunday published more
or less interesting history of the life of that
journal. We say "more or less interesting"
because the history was not so interesting
as the proprietor could easily have made it.
There are many facts within his knowledge
of which no mention is made. This is the
more to be regretted because the books of
the paper show no indication of some of
the most momentouS transactions which
have contributed to the construction of the
building which is designated as its NEW
home" We do not know that positive and
accurate knowledge of these transactions
can be obtained from any other source than
the mind of the present proprietor. The
accounts of Republican State and county
committees which have existed in the past
might tell one side of story, but probably
there is no means of verifying these ac-
counts unless the proprietor of the Chron-
icle can be brought to the confessional.
Railroad companies and water companies,
gas companies. sugar trusts and private in
diYiduals possess scraps of dearly purchased
information which the compiler of this his
tory might have made complete. But we
much regret to say that the history as
printed does not add to the indefinite but
not uncertain knowledge persons not oSten-
sibly connected with the paper possess OF its
secret history. There is a pretty play
called THE Palace OF TRUTH" in which
persons given to concealment are repre-
scented as being seized with sudden and
uncomfortable desire to speak the truth,
the whole truth and nothing but the truth
when they come under certain influences.
1t is pity the proprietor of the Chronicle
could not have been brought under these
truth-inspiring conditions. He could have
given a history of the Chronicle which
would have told much better than the Sun
day issue did and not have cost half so
much in the way of dollars and cents. But
the mental anguish that would have at
tended ruthless uncovering of the past
would have been terrible
