WHAT ONE CAN DO MANY CAN DO.

A few days since very suggestive
article upon success in viticulture ap-
peared in the San Francisco Bulletin.
The writer takes his cue from the fire.
quent complaints of men engaged in
viticulture, especially in the culture Of
the wine grape, that they found it i'm
possible tG make money on their grape
products. But there are vignerons who
make money out of their vineyards. If
one man can obtain satisfactory returns,
why may not all others, with equally
good soil and locations, obtain equally
satisfactory returns? The writer goes
on:
A case might be cited, and it is not a
solitary instance, where viticulturist
on the border of one of the northern val
leys has a vineyard of say 100 acres.
The product is mostly the wine grape.
He is not troubled with the phylloxera
or any other destructive insects. 1t is
one of the cleanest vineyards in the
state. This viticulturist makes his own
wine, selling it all to particular custom
ers in California and in the eastern
states. He is not in the least troubled
about the market. The tourist going up
the valley will have this vineyard
pointed out as remarkable exception
to the condition of many others. Why
should it be an exception? The simple
fact is that this viticulturist has brought
more skill to the cultivation of his vine
yard and to the production of wine than
his neighbors. This is not a solitary in
stance, but not a great number could
just now be cited of a similar character.
Now, if one man succeeds, or ten men,
in this particular branch of industry,
why may not all the others? If it is a
question of skill, why, with years of eX-
perience, do not all the other viticultur-
lists attain the same skill and the same
success?
1t is certainly about time that our
vignerons had acquired very thorough
knowledge of their business. A man
who has for several years been raising
wine grapes ought to know whether he
has put out the right kind of vines, or
whether there is variety better suited
to his success that he might plant out.
So, too, he ought to know, after having
made wine for a number of years,
whether he is getting the best wine pos
sible out of his grapes, and if not, why
not? He ought to be able to tell
whether all the processes he has used are
the ones best adapted to his particular
grapes, and whether there are other
means to adopt that will produce bet
ter and more salable wine than he has
so far obtained. 1t is only a question of
intelligence. If in the same neighbor-
hood there are ten men growing grapes
and making wines, and only one of these
ten is making money, there must be
something wrong with the other nine.
1t is not the fault of the soil, the eli
mate or the seasons; it is in the men
themselves. If one man can succeed
ten men can, and, if ten men, so can
ten thousand. 1t is oftener in ourselves
that we fail than in our surroundings.

WE take great pleasure in saying that
our friend, Judge w. F. Fitzgerald, of
the very respectable law firm of Fitz-
gerald & Anderson, is not the VIM.
Fitzgerald who, with l. j. Horrell and
George w. Knox, appears as the attor-
ney of Stefan Nicoletti, the keeper of
low dive where pimps and prostitutes
congregate, in his suite against the
HERALD to recover $50, 1000 for alleged
libel. Fitzgerald is lawyer of high
position in his profession, and man OF
honor, and when we say that, we say all
that is necessary.

Printers Wages.

Negotiations have been pending for
week or two past between the prop
rietors of the daily newspapers OF the
city and the Typographical Union with
a view to a reduction in the scale of
wages paid at the present time. Prior
to the commencement of the boom in
Los Angeles forty cents per thousand
ems was the price of composition, but at
different times the scale has been
changed, and at the height of the boom
it was fixed at forty-fve cents per
thousand on evening papers and fifty
cents per thousand on morning
papers. During the past two
years business of all kinds has
been depressed and newspapers have
particularly been sufferers from the loss
of advertising and other newspaper pat
ronage. All the newspapers have made
reductions in their working force and in
the salaries paid in all departments of
their papers except in the composing
room. After consultation upon the sit
uatlon from newspaper standpoint.
the prOprietOrs of the various journals
concluded to present the facts to the
Typographical Union and request that
the rates be modified.
At the regular monthly meeting of
the Los Angeles Typographical Union
on Sunday the representatives of the
various papers appeared by invitation
and stated their case. Addresses were
made by Colonel H. G. Otis and A. Nc
Farland, of the Times; j. H. Morrow. of
the Tribune Colonel j. j. Ayers, of the
HERALD, and H. q. Osborne, of the
Erpress. These gentlemen all agreed in
the statement that the condition of
business would not permit the payment
OF the present rates, and they unan-
imously expressed a desire to main
tain the pleasantest relations that have
heretofore existed between the union
and the newspapers, and united in urg-
ing the printers to assist in tidng over
the depression. The remarks of the
editors who spoke were received with
courtesy and good feeling and it was an
ticipated that there would be favora-
bic response to request so reasonable
in itself and urged with moderation and
frankness.
Today, however, the proprietors Of the
various papers have been notified by
committee of the Typographical Union
that their request would not be granted.
and further, that the various publishers
would be required on or before IL O'Clock
tomorrow to affix their signatures to the
present scale of prices, and bind them
selves to their payment for the period of
oney year, Evening Express, August 4.

THE SECOND-STREET CABLE FRAN
CHISE.

The city council rushed through an
ordinance yesterday granting right-of-
way and franchise for fifty years to H.
G. Wilmer, or his assignees, for cable
road with double track along the line of
the present Second-street cable road, and
to continue from Second and Spring
streets along Spring to Fourth, and
along Fourth to its intersection with
Third, and thence to point on Santa
Fe avenue opposite the Atchison, To-
peka and Santa Fe depot. There are
grave reasons why the public ought to
have had chance to look into the
merits of this franchise before it was
passed in the shape of contract-ordl-
nance. One of the serious objections we
see to it just now is that it authorizes
the laying of double track along streets
that are already too narrow to accommo-
date wagon traffic with a single track.
The width of Second street in front of
the HERALD Office is thirty-six feet from
curb to curb. Take off at least
sixteen feet for the two tracks, and
there are ten feet left for carriageways
on each side of the tracks. With the
single track now ON this street there is
not enough room for two wagons to
pass each other on either side of it.
Then think OF double track on Fourth
street, below Main. Why, there is
hardly room enough now for two
bicycles to go side by side, let alone a
double line of street cars, along the
Westminster block of that street.
We have no objection whatever to the
city treating enterprises of this charac-
ter literally. Yet there are rights be-
longing to the people which ought to be
respected. If one will 60 over
this city he will not fail to see that
double track franchises have been
granted upon streets that practically Y
give the railroads a monopoly OF them.
Temple street is destroyed for vehicles
by the double track, so is Ninth, be-
tween Spring and Pearl. The true prin-
ciple to be observed in these franchises
would be to have kept the companies to
single tracks in narrow streets, and if it
were not desirable to have suitable turn
outs, then to permit them to lay the sin
gle track in two parallel streets and go
down one and back on the other.
This could be done with the Second
street cable. Instead of destroying Sec
ond and Fourth streets with double
tracks, the company could have been
granted single tracks on adjacent paral-
lei streets.
The indecent haste with which this
contract-ordlnance has been hurried
through the council gives rise to the sus-
picion that its managers were not anx-
ious to have the measure carefully con-
sidered by the public or fairly criticized
by the press. We invite Mayor Hazard
to examine this ordinance in all its
phases before he vitalizes it with his sig
nature. He might, at the same time,
take look at Spring street, and see
whether another double track besides
the broad-gauge one there now is desira-
BILE from Second to Fourth street.

ELSEWHERE we publish an article
from the Euening Express headed
printers Wages" 1t will be seen that
the newspaper publishers applied to the
Typographical Union, in view of the de-
pressed condition OF business here, for a
reduction in the price of composition.
This fair and reasonable request was not
only met by positive refusal, but by a
peremptory demand on the part of the
union that the publishers should, within
twenty-four hours, sign an obligation to
continue to pay present rates for one
year! 1t is needless to say that this ex-
traordinary agreement has not been, and
will not be, signed by the publishers

ties. When the building was finished
and before the thirty days had expired
the material men filed liens against it.
The court held that the law provided
that cessation of work upon build
ing for thirty days operated the same as
a completion of the structure and its de-
livery to the owner, and that lien to
hold upon such building must be filed
thirty days after the expiration of thirty
days from the time work had ceased
upon it. This is point that has never
before been passed upon by the supreme
court, for the amendment to the lien
law under which the decision was made
had just passed when work upon the
building in question was stopped.
