SOME distinguished English statesmen
are quoted as being a little drastic in
their criticism on the killing of Sitting
Bull. That willy Sioux was the red
handed murderer of Custer and his
brave band He was a disturbing ele-
ment in his tribe at all times, and his
whole life was spent in fomenting war
between his people and the whites. He
was not warrior, but a skulking cow
ard, whose influence was gained and
maintained by being a medicine man.
He was humbug, and most danger
Gus one among his ignorant followers.
He was killed while he and his
followers were resisting arrest, he
being at that time fomenting war be-
tween his people and the government.
Let us see! We believe it was these
same soft hearted people OF England
who blew the Sepoys of India into
mince meat from the cannon's mouth,
when these people mutinied against un-
just English rule and usurpation. Our
Indians are incapable of civilization.
The Hindus are highly civilized and ca.
pable in all respects of self government
if England would but let them alone.
There is nothing to justify England's
usurpation of power over India.

THE Hawaiian government has made

THE Hawaiian government has made
the latest onslaught on the Mckinley
bill. BY the reciprocity treaty existing
between that kingdom and our govern
ment, sugar was admitted free, whereas
other imported sugar paid a duty. This
was decided advantage to the Kanakas.
This advantage is done away by the Nc
Kinley bill, which admits all sugar duty
free. King Kalakaua now claims that
to make his interests whole we must
pay the bounty provided for sugar of
domestic growth. Feaifully and won-
derfully made is this Mckinley bill.

THE great work which a newspaper
can often perform was shown by the New
York Worlds expose OF the Harrison
Huston conspiracy 20 colonize the north
with negroes from the south, with a
view to securing some of the close-mar-
gined pivotal northern states for the
Republican party. When Senator Voor-
hees, in his place in the senate, spoke a
few words of just condemnation OF the
contemplated infamy, the whole country
rang with his words, but it was only a
small proportion of the people who knew
that the sole merit of the expose be-
longed to our able New York contempo-
rary.

THE fact that the Farmers Alliance
carried South Carolina is not whit
more remarkable than the other fact
that it had previously carried Kansas.
Both OF these states had been wed ded
to the Democratic and Republican par
ties respectively. The result OF these
elections proves that the politicians will
have to reckon with the new movement.
What force it will gather in California
remains to be seen. 1t is almost certain
that the percentage OF loss must run
largely to the Republican party here as
elsewhere. All the leading demands OF
the new organization are, as matter OF
fact, embodied in the attitude of the
Democratic party. California is such an
eccentric state, however, that it is
scarcely possible to forecast the effect oi
any new movement long i'll advance.

IT is noteworthy circumstance that
Los Angeles on Christmas night filled
two large theaters to enjoy the rendition
OF opera as presented by Miss Emma
Abbott and Miss Juch. Amusements OF
a standard character are sure here to
receive liberal and appreciative recog-
milton. There is no other city of the
size vi Los angeles iii the United States
where two great audiences could be
called out to hear English or
any other opera in single night.
1t has long been remarked that
entertainments OF a really high charac-
ter are sure to be well patronized in this
city. Some OF the conductors of snide
shows have left here after failures which
were deserved on every ground, and
have sought to create the impression
that ours was city which was not re-
sponsve to the claims OF art, but the
prodigious success of the National Opera
company, of the Abbott and Juch COM
binations, and of score OF other mer-
itorious ventures. has shown to the
contrary with great emphasis.

A MERRY CHRISTMAS.
A Day That Was Full of Enjoyment
and Satisfaction.


Yesterday was only eyentful in a pleas
ant way in this city; at nearly all the
churches services were held, and the
Sunday school scholars in particular had
a good time, the annual distribution Of
gifts being feature of the occasion.
The services at the Cathedral Of st.
Vibiana were of most impressing
character. The affairs were elaborately
decorated with the beautiful inscription,
"Gloria in EXcelsis Dec" above the main
altar, indicating the lovely feast the
church was celebrating. Rev. Thomas
Shaw, G. M, delivered most excellent
discourse touching on the principle parts
of the days feast Father Shaw is in
deed an orator. The music at the 5
o'clock mass was Prof. A. G.. Gardner's
St. Joseph's mass and was eX.ellently
rendered.
At 10 o'clock Pontifical mass was cele-
brated by the rendering of M. A. Gil
sinn's grand Italian mass. which was
rendered by quartette of soloists
and a grand chorus The beauti-
full solos in this mass were
impressively sung, and the orches-
tration by Prof. A. G. Gardner, under
the direction of his baton, added greatly
to make this the best rendered mass at
the cathedral for some years. Mr..
Joseph F. Mule, the tenor, proved to be
in excellent voice.
At s 80 a. m. Father Farley, assisted
by Master Walter Morgan, held high
mass at the county Jail.
At2 p. m. the prisoners had a fine
dinner OF ox-tail soup, boiled ham, pota-
toes, bread and cup of wine, supplied
by Jailer Darcy. This was followed
with cup OF ice cream for each pris-
oner, the gift OF Mr.. Fred Linde, for
whom three rousing cheers were given.
At 4 80 in the afternoon, contrary to
general custom, third meal OF coffee,
bread, meat and cabbage was served
the usual Jail meal.
At the city Jail the prisoners had a
similar treat by the generosity OF Chief
Glass, who saw that they all had piece
OF turkey and better meal than some
OF them ever had before.
The perfect weather attracted many to
the seashore, and West Lake park was
well filed. Altogether it was very
merry Christmas. The stockings were
found we'll filled in tie morning, and no
one could be found who had had tough

ADJUSTMENTS,
How Christmas Was Passed at the
Theaters.

Theaters.
That Los Angeles will always do
handsomely by theatrical attraction
has so often been proven beyond doubt,
one wonders that it can ever be called
in question. Yesterday Emma Abbott
closed an engagement at the Los Angeles
with matinee and evening perform
ance. and Emma Juch opened an en-
gagement at the Grand in the evening.
The matinee was the Rose of CASTLE,
with Abbott as the Queen. The house
was very good one, despite the fact
that Christmas dinners were being pre- :
pared and eaten. Both as queen and
peasant Abbott was eXquisitely dressed.
Her robe of state was splendid cos
tune, such as it is doubtful if any
queens ever equaled in real life, The
sweet songs of the pretty opera she sang
with delicate grace and admirable taste.
The very soul of the music she drew
from the phrases.
In the evening the opera was Verdi's
II Troyatore. Abbott sang Leonora, a
role in which she is so familiar

The house was densely packed

Annandale as Azucena, Pruette as the

They all won warm recognition at the
hands of the packed house. The
choruses were excellently done, the
Anvil chorus being notably fine. Miss
| Abbott's season was a most successful
one, as is always the case when she
visits Los Angeles.
1t would certainly be matter of re-
gret to have to chronicle the demise oil
SO sweet singer and so great an artist
as Miss Juch, but it looks as if she were
to be the late Miss Juch in Los Angeles
When she appeared at the Grand some
what more than year ago her train was
hours late, and the curtain did not rise
until 10 O'Clock. The good nature
OF great houseful of people was at that
time matter OF general remark. 1t was
case of the same thing over again last
night. The train was hours late, and sc
was the performance. A house filled to

AT LEAST in one respect there was a
marked difference in the way Christmas
day passed here and at the east. The
day with US was absolutely cloudless.
and the temperature ranged at 20 de-
grees most of the day. At midnight it
was so warm that one not only did not
want an over coat, but he was tempted
to dof the under one. People enjoyed
strawberries, tomatoes and green peas
fresh picked from the vines, in almost
every house in the city. At the east as
the people sat down to their turkey and
stale turnips and cabbage taken from a
pit in the cellars, a snow storm OF un-
usual violence was driving everything
indoors and making life burden over
there.

AN INTERVIEW in the telegraphic dis
patches today, giving the opinions Of
Senator Paddock OF Nebraska, is a fair
specimen OF the serious rent that exists
in the ranks OF the Republican party
This western senator is at open war
with the leaders of his party, and de-
clares that his constituents are so too.
The Lodge force bill finds no adherents
in Nebraska, where the people are clam
oring for more money to develop the
latent resources OF great new empire.
But what can men like Paddock do?
The Bouroon ring controls the party,
and his voice is drowned in hubbub Of
discordant cries for partisan legislation.

Telegraphers Present Her With &
Pretty Christmas Greeting.
The Western Union telegraphers in
1882 went on strike that will long be
remembered. Miss Lizzie Annandale,
the contralto OF the Abbott Opera COM
pany, was then in Chicago, and she
volunteered for and successfully gave a
benefit performance for the strikers
which netted them a comfortable sum
in their hard times. The operators in
the Western Union Office of this city,
knowing Miss Annandale's presence in
the city, and remembering her kindness
to their craft, dubbed together and at
last evenings performance presented her
with probably the most magnificent
basket OF roses ever seen, even in this
land of blooms. Accompanying the
blooms was decorated card bearing an
expression of the good will felt for the
kind singer by the donors.

A Woman of the Present.

For my own part don't consider the
American woman the creature of the
future. l regard her as the individual
OF the present. She is healthy, wealthy
and wise-enough. We don't want her
to know too much--the nation objects
to it. We like her just as she is, with
out one plea in favor of dress reform, or
physical culture, and we grow extrava-
gantly proud of her when we see her
contrasted with other women. She
may be bit like the lily OF the field,
toiling not, nor spinning, but when she
is it is because the American
man considers it his greatest pleas
ure to have lily in his establish
ment and to admire it. When she does
toll she does it in about half
the time that it would take the French
woman, and, if it is a question t
money-making, can do more in one
day than the average English
woman could in year. l don't
believe in her having to make money.
| belong to the association that believes
in the cuddling-up-close-to a-man-and-
eing-taken-care-of, but my heart does
beat bit quicker when think how an
American woman can do it if she wants
to. She has lovely determination tC
"get there'-and she arrives on time

THE San Francisco Examiner set out
to get present for every poor child in
that great city. 1t was most laudable
undertaking and proved most success
full. Here is the way the paner speaks
on Wednesday morning, the day before
Christmas: "Please stop That is
what the Examiner is compelled to say
this morning to the generous contribu-
tors to the Orphans Christmas fund.
The fund is full-full to overHowing-
and today the poor children are going
to get the benefit of it. There is enough
to give every orphan present, and if
single poor child in San Francisco fails
to have merry Christmas it will be be-
cause we have not been able to find him."
That tells great story in praise of the
bay city. The book that Christmas is
founded on says, "Charity covers a null
titude of sins" 1t is proper that it
should, for as we see things, it is the
crown OF all virtues. San Francisco peo
pie have won name for themselves in
this response.

there is work cut out for any company
that attempts to sing the ponderous
score Of Les Huguenots. There are few
operas more difficult to sing satisfac-

that make loud and repeated demands
for great work. Juch was exceedingly
satisfactory in her part. Her voice has
