The Pocahontas mines are today
shipping coal to Halifax, n. S., when
within short distance of the city
are mines. Southwest Virginia can
put it On The docks Of the great Cana
dian port cheaper than it can be had
from any other source.
The mines and furnaces Of the South

N England, which for hundreds ofyears
has, been exporting il all over the
world. We can do it cheaper even with
their low wages.
These are two lessons which show
the direction in which the coal and iron
industries are moving better than any
thing else. 1t is such facts as these
that are turning The eyes of capitalists
in our direction and opening their

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
The Court House Bonds.

EDITORS HERALD-You have had much
to say in regard to the bonds to be voted
for next week, and my opinion is that
the county will vote against them; and
if such should be the case, the reason
will be that the board of supervisors
ought to sell the county property and
let it go as far as it will, then issue
bonds for the balance. We believe it
will be many years before property will
bring as much as it did in boom times.
Besides, people want change in the
board. Taxes have been too high for
the results. Look at that 80 per cent
for road purposes, and what have we
got to show for it? Had it been left for
the farmers to say, they would not have
voted over one third of the amount.
Nice times these are to be
spending money for boulevards |!
Why don't they spend some here? The
road between here and Norwalk is used
by Downey, Whittier and Buena Park,
and is the main travelled road all sum-
mer to Anaheim Landing, Alamitos Bay,
Long Beach, Wilmington, etc. l have
been here ten years, and the road is
little better than it was at that time,
and Mr.. Rowen proposed some time ago
70 shut off the only comfort we have, a
little straw on the sandy roads in the
summer. In fact, this is all we get for
our 30 per cent, leaving out that other
little matter-I mean that So road poll
tax. l call it steal, because it operates
only on the small farmer and working
man, while the owner of thousands OF
acres may 60 free if he lives out of the
county. If justice was done, this tax

Yesterday was the nations memorial

commenced to arrive, but the parade
did not take place until 80. Then the
officer of the day, Mr.. Martin, formed
the column on Second street. 1t was
composed of the military company and
band, the G. A. r. and flag corps,
she relief corps going direct from the
hall to the church. The parade moved
down Second and thence to the M. E.
church, where the people were enter
tanned with an address by G. Wiley
Wells, of Los Angeles. A recitation
from Miss Gould and a duet by
Mesdames McClintock and Newerf and
solos by Mesdames Abbott and Garcelon
and the G. A. r. memorial service
formed the programme. There was a
large concourse of people out, and the
lkoonations furnished by the relief corps
were beautiful.

Far down the river, near the bend,
Where massive trees their shadows lend,
The stream has formed a basin deep,
So sheltered the ripples scarcely creep.
Here now, beneath a leafy screen,
watched the water fowl, myself unseen
Now upon the placid waters breast
They languid float, or quiet rest,
Now, sudden seized with sportiye turn,
They dash and splash-to foam the waters
churn;
Or needing demands OF appetite,
They dive and vanish from my sight.
But now a quadruped draws near the brink,
Perhaps to have its sides perchance to drink.
The ducks are startled-in great alarm
They huddle close. as If fearing harm,
Save one brave bird, with flashing eye,
Who makes the base intruder ny.
Now upon the bank in swift pursuit
He follows close the frightened brute,
Till with his bill he seized its tail
To tell the rest my pen would fail,
For swifter than flash OF light,
Beast and bird both vanished from my sight.
But on that very spot within the wood.
