parents, Mr.. and Mrs. j. G. Worrall,
Miss. Sadie L. Worrall, aged "a years
and % days.
Miss Worrall was well known in
this county as successful teacher in

w. A. Bosworth in the Walnut Valley
United Brethren church, and was

to US is loss but to her is gain.

they seem to be contented and happy,
but very immoral; they all appear to
have plenty of money, but do not take
any interest in politics, generally
voting the way their employers ask
them to.

Yesterday the woman went to the

eyed narrowly every one who stepped
down the gang plank Suddenly she
rushed effusively up to well-dressed,

him and kissed him several times The

THE San Diegan has brought out the
name of w. j. Hunsaker, of San
Diego, for the nomination for congress
in this district on the Democratic ticket.
There does not seem to be a rush for
this nomination, and if Mr. Hunsaker
should prove to be the successful candi-
date he will make strong run and be a
most excellent and useful representa-
tive, if elected. The Republican ma
jority was so enormously large in this
district at the last general election
that there seems to be disinclina-
tion amongst popular and available
men to face it. But we have
reason to believe that the Republican
majority OF two years ago does not exist
today. Indeed, we believe that Harri-
sons mal-administration and Reeds
malodorous parliamentary tactics, coup
led with McKinley's outrageous tariff
scheme, have so turned the tide of
public opinion in this district that a
good Democrat can make the trip this
time successfully. OF course, it looks
like forlorn hope, but there have been
greater surprises in politics than the
election of Democratic representative
from this district would prove to be.
Los Angeles herald., 1890-06-24

THE coalition between Germany and
England to swap territory in Africa that
belongs to neither for an islet at the
mouth of the Elbe that has no import
ance whatever, except as menace to
France, has aroused warlike feeling in
the latter country, which will be accel-
Grated by the continued cause for irrita-
tion given by England in her evident
determination to make her military oc-
cupation of Egypt permanent one.
There is manifest tendency towards an
alliance offensive and defensive between
Great Britain and Germany. This is not
brought about by public opinion in
England, nor is such pact favored by
her people. 1t is more the result OF the
family relations between the rulers of
the two powers than of diplomacy based
upon the exigencies of the times.
Frances irritation is further increased
by the events that are taking place in
the fisheries along the Newfoundland
coast. English and French cruisers are
gathering there in threatening num-
bers. If matters continue to drift
in the direction they have taken
lately, the complications between
the three powers will get beyond the
reach of arbitration, and hostilities
may eventuate at any moment. A delib-
crate design on the part of Great Britain
to make common cause against France
on any question of disagreement, will
not fail to bear dangerous fruits. A
close alliance between England and
Germany will bring France and Russia
together, and when it is once settled
that this is the situation the least spark
of trouble will burst out into flame OF
war that will light up all Europe.
