PLUCKY FIREMEN.
They Fight an Oil Fire with Energy
and Success.

ana SUCCESS.
At 20 O'Clock yesterday morning the
fire brigade was called out by an alarm
rung in from box 90, to extinguish
lively blaze at the yard OF the Standard
Oil company on San Fernando street, the
contents of two large oil tanks having
become ignited from too close proximity
to timers furnace, used for soldering
oil cans. Engines Nos. 2 and 4, the Park
hose and the hook and ladder companies
were soon on the spot, and the firemen
worked like Trojans to prevent the
flames from spreading to the five other
tanks filled with the combustible fluid,
which stood within fifty feet of those
which were already burning. Fortu-
nately but small quantity OF oil, com
paratively speaking, was in the two
tanks which caught fire, and after half
an hours hard work the blaze was ex-
tinguished. The damage, amounting to
about $500, was covered by insurance.
The members of the fire brigade de-,
serve great credit for their promptitude,
and the manner in which they worked,
in the face of the great danger which,
threatened them.

The San Francisco Bulletin, with its
usual claptrap and insincerity, says
California goes Republican and the east
Democratic, because our people, as a
rule, are more intelligent than our old
friends whom we bade goodbye at the
east a few years ago. If the late cleo
ton had been a matter of intelligence,
this great silver-producing state would
never have voted for the party that
failed to pass the free coinage bill, be-
cause it was scared away from it's duty
by the squeak of the little man under
his grandfather's hat, the little corpora
tion lawyer, who threatened to veto such
a bill if presented to him.

q TASK you, in casting your ballots on
Tuesday next, to remember that you
can sustain the administration of an
able, conscientious and independent
president, or you can set seal of doubt
upon it; you can do much to perpetuate
Republican administration or you can
do much to destroy it. 1t is in your
hands. l have come here, not with the
purpose of eulogizing the administra-
ton, but to bear my testimony and give
you warning, that as Pennsylvania
votes on Tuesday next, the nation votes
two years hence.
So said James G. Blaine at Philadel-
phia on the Saturday preceding the cleo
ton. Ergo. in 1892 the administration
will go Democratic.

ON HIS LAST LEGS.
Stanford's Great Stallion Electioneer
Nearing His End.


Electioneer is on his last legs. He is
twenty-five years old and is now a
wreck. The great stallion has produced
mal.y famous trotters, and has more
than any other horse contributed to the
renown of California bred stock.
Electioneer was purchased of Mr..
Backman of Stony Ford, N. Y, by SEN
ator Stanford in 1877. The sum paid for
him was $4,000. He is by Rysdyke's
Hambletonian, out of Green Mountain
Maid, by Henry Clay, his second dam
being Shanghai Mary. Electioneer's first
get was Fred Crocker, who made at the
time the worlds fastest two-year-old
record-2 PSI. Wild Flower followed
with 2 :2l at the same age. Manzanita
made 2:1734 in her three-year-old form.
and 2 :16 in the third heat of a race when
four-year-old. The 2:16 stood good un-
til Sunol tapped at fame's door. Hindoo
Rose held the yearling record, 2:3615
until Norlaine beat it with 2:31. Nor
laine was by Norval, another of Elec-
tioneer's get, SO the hon + was IN the
family. Hindoo Rose also made the
three-year-old record OF :19]9.
Sunol, with her two-year-old record of
2:1S and her three-year-cld record of
2:101a, of course capped the climax of
greatness in the Electloneer family. Palo
Alto also came in for his share Of glory
for the stables along with the others.
The prices brought by Electioneer get
have been something phenomenal. Sunol
sold for nearly 100000; Anteeo sold for
0,000; his brother, Anteevolo, sold for
$4,000; Bell Boy brought SOL 900 at
public auction; the t~o-year-olds sold
at $12,500 each, and one yearling sold
for $12,500; Nnrval sold for $4,000. and
large number have brought 10000
each.
Charles Marvin, the driver of Sunol
and the manager of the Palo Alto stud,
is strongly in favor of sending the great
old horse to this city for change of eli
mate. His owner, however, does not
favor the plan, but has sourrounded him
with every comfort that money can pro-
cure. Electioneer has never stood pub
licly. However, with his great progeny,
it is probable that his blood will flow
freely through many generations to
come, his get numbering something over
400, an aristocratic number.

CANADA is pushing the beet sugar in
dustry with renewed vigor since the
passage of the Mckinley bill, which
permits the introduction of sugar, duty
free, into the United States. Yet we
ought to be more than match for any
country in this industry. The Canadian
beets produce only IL per cent. OF
saccharine matter at best. Our beets
run at IA to 20 per cent. Then for fif-
teen years at least the new tariff law
provides a bounty of 2 cents per pound
on domestic sugar. California is the
best place in the world for this industry,
and Southern California has this ad-
vantage over other parts of this state,
that beets may be grown and the plant
kept active all the year round.

IT WOULD be difficult to explain why
the United States AZ per cent bonds due
in 1901 do not find their way more rapidly
to the treasury for redemption. There
are nearly SIC, 1000, 900 of them out, and
the secretary offers their face, plus inter
est to August 81, 1891, for their surren-
der, yet they come in slowly. That is
all they can bring at the end of the year.
Such of these bonds as are not held for
the circulation of national banks,
one would suppose, would be rushed in
for redemption, but they are not. Yet
they will cease to draw interest after
next year.

THE Terminal Railroad company is
really making good progress in putting
in the levee on the east bank of the
river. 8 A cargo of lumber is being rap
idly placed as facing along the piles be-
low the Downey-avenue bridge. An
inner line of "anchor" piles has been
driven from the Santa Fe bridge to be-
low the Kuhrts-street bridge to tie the
levee to from behind. Other develop
ments in the same line are promised in
a short time.

BACCALAUREATE SERMON.

The Baccalaureate sermon of Rev.
F. A. Cone, at the NJ. E. church last
Sunday morning, was of character
to be we'll worthy of reproduction in
print. The text was from I'd Cor.
iv: 19, "While we look not at the things
which are seen, but at the things
which are not SEEN" The speaker
contrasted that class of people who
boast that they are practical and de-
vote themselves only to the building
up of material things, to those who
have enough of ideality to see unde-
veloped possibilities in science, in bus
mess and in social life. He dwelt up
on the need of faith in practical life,
as well as of faith in things which are
not seen on the part of the Christian.
The example of the Apostle Paul was
held up for admiration-his patience
under persecution, his humility and
serene hopefulness, sustained by faith
in things unseen but wonderfully real

Architect Orff, of the Minneapolis
firm of Geo. w. and F. D. Orff, was
here Tuesday comforting with c. A.
Francois preparatory to drawing the
final plans and specifications for the
new hotel block. Messrs. Orff have
designed many of the handsome pub
lie and private buildings of Minneap-
oils, and drew the plans for the East
man Hotel, at Hot Springs, Ark. Since
our interview with Mr.. Francois last
week, that gentleman has decided to
make the new block full three stories,
instead of two. It will also be built
with view to removing the present
corner building in the near future and
replacing it with solid brick to CORE
spond with the building now under
way. The excavation and foundation
work for the latter is to 60 forward as
fast as the weather will permit, to al
low the masons to begin as early as
possible.
