to irrigate every acre of land in both San
Bernardino and Los Angeles counties
clear to Pomona. The Bear valley water
company can alone furnish a supply
equal to the irrigation of the larger part
of it. Then there are hundreds of other
recourses. The rivers and creeks that
are now reversed, can be made to flow
on top instead of under the surface.
Artesian belts will be found in these
very plains, and perhaps the develop
ments of another decade may show us
that it is not the lack of water but the
plethora that may bother us.
One is lost in wonder at the tre-
mendous possibilities OF this vast region.
Cut up into ten acre farms and orchards,
under high state of cultivation, Ras-
selas' Valley OF Delights in Abyssinia, as
depicted by DIR. johnson, would be a
mere daub to this magnificent picture.

SUNDAY. SEPTEMBER IA, 1890.
A FIASCO.

The Republican procession last night
was the poorest in point OF numbers,
and absolutely the most devoid in en-
thusiasm, of any political demonstra-
ton we have witnessed in Los Angeles
during the past ten years. The HERALD
would not in the slightest degree under
value the demonstration if the truth had
called for its being written of in any
other vein. We have always regarded the
Republican campaign in this year in
California as one without any real capa-
bilities for the Republican party. From
the moment that Pond and Del Vale
were nominated the seal was set upon a
Democratic victory which involved let
ters patent, with the official stamp of the
State, upon Democratic supremacy for
four years to come. Lacking in num-
bers, and still more lacking in enthusi-
asm, it was really the handwriting upon
the wall.

OUT OF THE DESERT THE GARDEN.

In continuation of the many interest
ing facts that are suggested by
the "loop trip" of which we wrote
yesterday, none is more strik-
ing to the stranger than the
sudden transitions from what appears to
be an arid desert to wealth OF rich
growths that might be likened, in their
exquisite developments, to the tabled
gardens of the Hesperides. To one not
acquainted with the country, and VINO
had not seen how rapidly these deserts
are made to blossom by the aid OF lit
ed, it would appear impossible
that these sudden transitions could
be produced A few years ago
there was stretch of ten miles
from Pomona eastward which was
called the Cucamonga desert. In ante
railroad times this stretch was the terror
of teamsters, and truly it was very for
bidding part of the road to San Bernar-
dino. Now, how changed 1t is dotted
here and there with luxuriant orchards
of apricots and groves of oranges. The
old Cucamonga vineyard, which eight
years ago stopped at the border Of this
''desert," now crosses it and reaches far
beyond its ancient confines.
Wherever water has been brought
there is wealth of horticultural i'm
provement. For miles we will see a
tract which rabbits would starve upon,
when presto some brave and adventur-
GUS settler has planted his home there,
and the beginning of a promising place is
discernible. In few years from now that
settler will have an orchard and vineyard
that will insure him competency. This
is only a sample of thousands of places
that may now be seen.
As time rolls on every acre OF these
vast mesas (now so forbidding) will be
brought under the highest cultivation.
The Cucamonga mountains need only to
be tapped to repeat the miracle of the
rock when struck by the rod of Amram's 8
son, and give forth living stream. Ir-
rigation has become a progressive
science. The better it is understood,
the less water is needed. And the less
water used and the more the soil is cul-
tivated, the greater the crop and the
better the quality. These facts are dem
onstrated by the experience of every
intelligent cultivaior. Where a farmer
believed that he required ten inches of
water to produce crop ten years ago,
he will now produce the same result
with one inch. AS rule, vines, after
thev have had enough irrigation to root
them we'll in the soil, will find their
own moisture and thrive.
But there is no lack of water to be had

ecessors. Hon. M. M. Estee was intro
duced and read lengthy address, which
did not arouse much enthusiasm, but
apparently bored his audience to death.
during the hour and three-quarters he
consumed in its delivery. 1t was full of
glittering generalities, and fairly bristled
with figures, comparative statements
and statistics of all kinds, but many who
heard it remarked that it bore marked
resemblance to the address he delivered
here four years ago. As by actual meas
urement the address would occupy thir-
teen columns of this paper if set up in
nonpariel type, lack of so much space
forbids the intliction of it upon the read
ers of the HERALD.
After another song by the colored glee
club, the proceedings were brought to a
close with three cheers for Markham,
Reddick, Estee and the Republican tick
ct; and the distinguished visitors hur-
ried off to catch their train for the north.

THE NEWS FROM MAINE.

The Maine Democrats last June had
an unfortunate and unseemly contest in
their state convention over prohibitory
legislation. A resolution was unexpect-
edly introduced which declared against
the whole prohibitory system, demanded
the substitution of license and the con-
sequent change of the organic
law as expressed in the recent
constitutional amendments. This reso-
luton was opposed by the whole body
of country delegates and overwhelmingly
defeated, the temper of the convention
being against any attempt to make po-
litical issue out OF the temperance ques
tion, since it had been left out of the
platforms of both parties for years, by
common consent, and long ago relegated
to the realm of social and economic dis
cussion and experiment.
Francis w. Hill, popular citizen,
and farmer, was nominated for gov
ernor. Three days later he died from
an attack of pneumonia. The state
committee, instead of filling the vacancy
as they were expected to do, were pre-
vailed upon to re-assemble the conven-
tion, at which only about one-third of
the former delegates were present. BY
some strange fatuity OF judgment-or
something worse-the disturbers of the
former convention sprang their resolu-
tion again and after a sturdy opposition
by the conservative element it was car
ried, and candidate in sympathy with
the license policy nominated.
There was wide and outspoken dissat-
isfaction over this entirely unexpected
and unauthorized action of the city poll
ticians who brought about this thing,
and both quiet and open disapproval
became apparent. breaking out into
mutiny in some of the rural regions
where Democrats and Republicans alike
have agreed it were best to let the con-
stitutional amendment alone OF course,
under this state of things the Democrats
would not and could not make any
really united fight, and yet they gained
thirteen members OF the lower house,
and elected four senators to the senate,
in which body not one Democrat has
ever been permitted to sit since the
time when the memory of the young
man runneth not to the contrary. In
view of these facts, the real state of
things in Maine is scarcely less disquiet-
ing to the Republicans than in the case
of Vermont.

CONE to the front, ye Irishmen, and
demand an authoritative declaration as
to whether Col. Markham, in his mining
transactions, preferred Mongolian to
Irish labor? 1t is high time that this
thing should be determined, once for all.
If it be true that Markham wrote such a
letter he will be overwhelmed under the
indignant ballots of Californians of all
parties. If it is not true, let him say so,
and prove his denial.

SANTA MONICA.
A Days Doings BY the Lovely City
by the Sea.

We are having the finest weather of
the season by long odds. The atmosphere
being as clear as a bell, perfectly free
from fog, and exceedingly bracing. To-
day North beach presented an old time
appearance, with the numbers of bath
ers frollicking in the surf. In the after
mood the concert on the bluff was we'll
attended. The polo grounds presented
an animated appearance with numbers
of gaily attired ladies who were among
the crowd of witnesses to the game.
which was intensely exciting.
The false rumor that the Southern Pa
cifc had purchased Redondo was not
believed by our citizens nevertheless, it
had depressing effect, and yesterday
morning, when the HERALD came out
with its positive denials from the au-
thorities who would certainly know, the
few remaining copies at the newsdealers
were taken up and read with
great guslo, and the enterprise of
the HERALD IN probing the canard
was duly appreciated by our citizens
generally. The statement has also been
going the rounds that there was some
terrible bar in the bay which would
prevent commerce. There was never a
more foolish story started. Years ago
wharf was here 1880 feet in length,
at which the Panama steamers touched,
and then it was the only place between
San Francisco and San Diego where they
could stay during storm. There is a
bar across the bay and it has fifty
fathoms of water over it.
Mrs. Newhall, the gifted authoress,
returned home yesterday.
Grand open air concert by Meme
Bros. band will be given this afternoon
on the esplanade.
Hunting is enjoyed by many OF our
citizens and guests who bring home
quantities OF game, II. /. Clark and
Edward Brice being particularly fortu-
nate.
Major C. ]. Fallon and family, of Los
Angeles, are enjoying the charming Sep
tember days on the beach.
Mr.. and Mrs. A. L. Palm, who spent
the summer months here and made
many friends by the geniality of their
manners, celebrated the fourth ami
versary OF their little girl, Miss Julia
M. Palm, today at their Los Angeles
home.
The veterans at the soldiers home
gave most interesting entertainment
last Thursday evening, at which the fol-
lowing programme was well rendered:
l. Music, Miller, Willets and Robin
son. 2. Comedy, He could not read
English, by Miller, Coulter, Criss and
Shay. 8. Recitations, Hoods Chickens,
by Barney. 4. Music, Gen. Grants
march of victory, by Miller. 5. Music
on the guitar, Hilbron. 6. Recitation,
Miss Jersey Hasse. z. and s. Recita
ton, Asleep at the switch, Coulter. 8.
Music, the band.
Many of our young ladies and gentle
men would be welcome visitors at the
home, and any assistance given the
entertainment committee would be very
thankfully received.
The home bus would be sent for them
and bring them home.

A SECTION of the Republican party
small in numbers but great in influence,
is said to have their eyes on Gen. Nell
son A. Miles as their candidate for Pres
ident. The Generals supporters include
Senator Stanford. 1t is not always a
sagacious thing to select military lead
er as standard-bearer unless his ex-
ploits have been very recent and still
ring in the public ear. By 1852 Gen.
Scott's achievements in the Mexican
war were not remembered with suffi-
cient liveliness to do him any good, while
all recollections of Lundy's Lane were
completely obliterated.
Los Angeles herald., 1890-09-14

THE Pond campaign is both practical
and poetical. The attempt of our es-
teemed contemporary, the Times, to
create a war somewhat equivalent to
that of the roses in England, has been
submerged in the grand renaissance OF
the Pond lily. The Democratic party
did not begin floral war; but, being
challenged, the party comes to the front
with the best man and the representa-
tive flower. The lily, besides, is the
emblem of innocence and his partners
say that Markham is not altogether in
nocent. Who knows man as well as
his partners? If it be true that the in
terests of his partners were not safe in
the hands of Mr.. Markham, how would
fare those of the state?
Los Angeles herald., 1890-09-14

THE Hon. M. NJ. Estee opened the
campaign in the Pavilion last night
from his usual argumentative point of
view. This gentleman's speeches read
well, but they have a most dissolving eff
feet upon an audience. The most not
able appearance of this distinguished
gentleman in Los Angeles was in the
campaign OF 1882, when he was the Re-
publican candidate for Governor. He
spoke remarkably we'll then and his SEN
tences were well rounded He reasoned
a priori-and poste-riori; he INDUCED
in political syllogisms without end but,
with all his force of argument, elo-
quence and logic, Mr.. Estee found him
self defeated by some twenty-five thous-
and majority by Gen. Stoneman. In
Los Angeles he has come to be regarded
as a sort OF avant courier of defeat, and
this year will be no exception to the
rule. 1t will rather enforce it.
