REPUBLICAN politics in these midsum-
mer days is not consolatory subject OF
reflection to those most interested.
Here is Mr.. Blaine, who is generally re-
garded as the flower and crown of Repub-
licanism, back-capping the tariff bill of
Major Mckinley, of the Buckeye state, is
positively heartless manner. The big
sugar trust wants free sugar, not to
cheaper the cost of sweets to the con-
sumner, but to lessen the cost of the raw
material to the combine, and Mr.. Blaine
thinks it would be to the purpose to get
a reciprocity treaty with the Latin
American republics in lieu of free sugar.
Mr.. Blaine might have gone on and
pointed out the iniquity of enhancing
the cost of socks, underwear, blankets
and all other woolen goods to the poor,
and the endangering of the existence of
woolen manufacturing GO in all parts
OF the country in order to benefit a
lew sheep men in Major McKinley's IS
own district. These are merely speci-
men bricks for the house this political
Jack has built for his own behoof.
Then there is the silver bill. Mr.. Reed
is sure OF his own election in Maine,
and wants to stand we'll in Washington
with thes Harrison ring that is running
things, so he hangs up the silver bill

passed by the senate. 1t may appear to
these gentlemen that the long-suffering
patience of the American people is in
exhaustible, and that the people will
endure to be juggled with till doomsday.
But they will find out their mistake in
these premises. The passage of Major
McKinley's bill and the failure to pass
the silver bill, will surely prove too
much for the party of all expediency, Of
much policy and no principle. Its back
has been weak for long time, it's bur
den of sins of omission and OF commits
sion is heavy, and these two added
weights will break its spine.

Among the documents filed with the
county clerk yesterday were the follow
ing new complaints:
Lewis Davidson VS.. Alpine Plaster and
Cement Company, suit to obtain judg-
ment for 81, 269.50 alleged to be due as
damages sustained by reason of the fail
ure of the defendant to comply with the
terms of an agreement made March Sd
last, whereby plaintiff was to be en-
ployed as foreman for one year at a
salary of $3.50 per day. By reason of
this offer plaintiff broke up bis home at
Grand Rapids, Mich. and Brought his
wife and family to this city, but after
working for few weeks he alleges he
was discharged without cause.

HE ALSO HAD RULES.
How the Restauranteur Got Back at tn
Bank Teller.

He had opened a restaurantin Buffalo
and after two or three weeks he called
at bank to get the cash on a small
check received from some one in Phila.
delphia.
''Have to be identified, SIR said the
teller as he showed it back.
'But | am Blank, of the new restau.
rant around the corner"
"Must be identified"
This is payable to me or order, and
I've endorsed it," protested the res
tauranteur.
Cant help it, sir. Rules of the
bank"
The man went out and brought some
one in to identity him, and the money
was handed over. Three DAYS later the
teller dropped in for a lunch at the new
restaurant. He had taken a seat and
given his order, when the proprietor ap-
preached him and said:
''Have to be identified, sir"
GLOW What?"
"Have to be identified before you can
get anything here, sir"
identified | don't understand you,"
protested the teller.
"Plain as day, sir. Rule of the house
that all bank officials have to be identi-
fed. Better go out and find some re-
sponsible party who knows you"
Hanged if do" growled the teller,
and he reached for his hat and coat and
banged the door hard as he went out

The Fashionable ParasoI.

The extremely fashionable parasol to
be used at the seaside or at the noun
tains is the most unique japanese one
that can be got. On top must be tied a
large black ribbon bow, the ends Of
which come far down on the parasol
when it is opened. 1t really looks very
pretty when worn with a cotton gown,
and makes bright speck on the land
scape. The red parasol is also in vogue,
and is of plain, heavy silk, with nat
ural wood handle. One having a silver
handle is voted extremely bad form. The
very pronounced liking for red is thought
to be the outcome Of the general woman s
disposition. Lining her coat with scar
let, wearing a scarlet frock, having a
scarlet parasol, and wearing a scarlet
bonnet, is the nearest she can get to
painting the town red, which from her
youth up she has always had yearning
to do.-From ''Bab's" New York Lette r

AN AzUsA rancher has refused an
offer of $4,000 for so acres of orange
orchard. He holds for $4,000. The
tract is all planted, and, as we are in
formed, all bearing. If hewere a young
and vigorous man who owns this prop
erty, situated as it is in one of the very
best districts for orange culture in the
section, and with abundance OF water
for irrigation, he would be foolish to sell
for the higher sum, or for twice that
money. Good orange groves, as things
are going here now, are worth $4,000 to
$4,000 an acre, and raw lands suitable in
all respects for the industry are cheap
at $500.

MR.. L. f. MosHER, the superintend-
ept of the census, suggests that it would
be well that any citizen of Los Angeles
who has not been caught by the census
enumerator should communicate with
his office, either by letter or postal card.
MIR. M. says that immediate steps will
then be taken to properly enroll him
and his family. This should be done by
all means. Every Angelefo should see
to it that we do not suffer from the neg
ligence of those who have been en-
trusted with the task of executing this
important work. As a matter OF fact,
there are in this city whole streets which
have not been visited. There is a
restaurant in the very heart of Los An
geles employing sixteen walters, and
thus far not one of them has been en-
rolled This is a specimen brick OF the
way the census has been slurred.

THE whiskey ring has proved too pow
erful an influence in the senate to allow
the house bill for the fortitication OF
sweet wines with untaXed brandy to
pass that august but time-serving body
of politicians. What a refreshing thing
it would be just now to see some meas
ure of a really statesmanlike nature
pass both houses OF congress AS things
are, only merely expedient measures
can get through, where politics and
doodle cut any figure, and the good Of
the country is a subject of no sort OF
importance.

Mr.. HoRATIo n. RUST, the United
States Indian agent for Southern Cali
fornia, has addressed to the HERALD a
communication that deserves serious at
tention. He has left in this Office a
series OF photographs of the Chiricahua
Indians of Geronimo's band, who were
sent to the government training school
at Carlisle, Pennsylvania. When they
arrived at that post their counterfeit
presentments' were taken, and a sorrier
looking group it would have been hard
to find anywhere. Their matted hair,
lowering looks and attitude of sullen in
difference as to their fate were calcu-
lated to suppress the interest of the
most lively philanthropist. Four months
of kindness and salutary discipline have
worked wonders in these savages. The
companion photographs, taken after
the Indians had been at Carlisle
four months, and had profted
by the philanthropic attentions OF their
teachers, show a magical change. In
these last the Indians look bright, intel
igent and happy. There can be no
question whatever but that the true
policy to be pursued towards the rem
nants of the Indian tribes of the Pacific
coast should be one of kindness and de-
velopment. They can be made useful
members of the community and brought
into the ways of civilization with one
half of the outlay that was formerly re-
quired to coerce them into subjection
This plan ought to be pursued all over
the United States.

A Slight Error.

In reporting Mr.. Leach on oranges in
Florida yesterday an error crept into the
article that does violence to that gentle
mans reputation as a horticulturist.
Instead of saying that SO cents worth of
commercial fertilizer is put over the
roots OF the young trees, it should have
been that that much money per tree is
spent for fertilizing the grove and caring
for the tree for wear.

AN EXPLOSION.
A Mechanic Badly Burned by Coal
Oil

Levi Booth, Jas. Chapman and Chas.
Christie, three mechanics employed at
the Fulton Iron Works, went to the de-
pot of the Rapid Transit Railroad Com
pany, on Macy street, yesterday after
noon, to repair an engine which was out
of gear. While working under the boiler,
Christie placed a can containing about a
pint of coal oil too near the fre-box,
and the result was an explosion. The
burning oil was scattered over Christie s.
clothing, and he was horribly burned
about the chest and arms. In rescuing
him his fellow-workmen were also
