and he put into one great pile the
wooden saddles of his cavalry, and the
spoils of the cities and kingdoms he
had sacked, and placed on top of this
holocaust the women who had accom-
panied him in his devastating march,
ordering that the torch be put to the
pile. What power broke that sword,
and stayed that red scourge of cruelty
that was rolling over Europe2 The
sword of Theodore and Actius.
THE COLONIES VICTORY.
To come down to later ages, all in
telligent Englishmen unite with all in
telligent Americans in saying that it
was the best thing that the American
colonies swung off from the government
of Great Britain. 1t would have been
the worst absurdity of four thousand
years if this continent should have con-
tinued in loyalty to a throne on the
other side of the sea. No one would
propose a governor general for the
United States as there is a governor
general for Canada. We have had
splendid queens in our American Capt.
toll but we could hardly be brought to
support queen on the other side of the
Atlantic, lovely and good as Victoria is.
The only use we have for earls and
lords and dukes in this country is to
treat them well when they pass through
to their hunting grounds in the far
west, or, when their fortunes have fail
ed, REINFORCE them by wealthy matri-
monial alliance Imagine this nation
yet part of English POSSESSIONS The
trouble the mother country has today
with Ireland would be paradisaic con-
dition compared with the trouble she
would have with us.
England and the Unit 5tates make
excellent neighbors, but the two fam
lilies are too large to live in the same
house What a godsend that we
should have parted, and parted long
agol But can think of no other way in
which we could have possibly achieved
American independence. George the
Third, the half crazy king, would not
have let us go. Lord North, his prime
minister, would not have let us go.
Gen. Lord CORVALLIS would not have
let us go, although after Yorktown he
was glad enough to have us let him go.
Lexington, and Bunker Hill, and Mon
mouth, and Trenton, and Valley Forge
were proofs positive that they were not
willing to let us &c. Any committee
of Americans going across the ocean
to see what could have been done
would have found 40 better ac-
than London Tow
er. The only way it could have
been done was by the sword, your
great-grandfather's sword. Jefferson's
pen could write the Declaration of In
but only Washington's
sword could have achieved it, and the
other swords bathed in heaven.

RATHER THIN.
ALvA uDELL's PECULIAR METHODS
EXPOSED.
He Now Claims that the $500 Bail Money
He Deposited While Charged with Big
amy Was His Mothers.

Alva Udell, acquitted few days ago
of bigamy, in department one, is after
that $500 cash bail, which has already
caused so much trouble through the in
tempestive action of the district attor-
ney when prosecuting Justice Savage, at
the time the superior court directed the
justice to pay over the money to County
Clerk Meredith, which he did.
After his acquittal Udell asked for
this money, but was refused on the
ground that he was insolvent in Solano
county, and that it belonged to his cred
itors. He applied then to three judges
of the superior court for relief, the last
one Of which ordered that the money be
paid to the bondsman, whoever that
was.
Mr.. Meredith having been notified not
to pay the $500 by the attorney for the
creditors of Udell in Solano county, un
less he wanted to repay it later out of
his own pocket, held on to the coin,
notwithstanding UdelPs efforts and
those Of Willis & Appel, his counsel, in
this following the exact course which
was pursued by Justice Savage.
Now, in order to get at the "boodle" a
suit has been brought against the county
clerk, in which the alleged plaintiff is
Mrs. Caroline Udell, mother of Alva. In
the complaint it is alleged that on the
28th of October, 1890, she was entitled
to the possession of seventy-tive $40 gold
pieces, which the defendant wrongfully
withholds. This complaint is verified
by the "canny" Udell himself, who al
leges that his mother is absent from the

Active Inquiry for Good Real Estate
and Important Sales.

Active Inquiry for Good Real Estate
and Important Sales.
All the real estate people say there is
quite active inquiry in their line. The
daily list of transfers shows that this in
quiry is leading to business. Some days
ago the HERALD announced that big
sale was being closed up whereby San
Francisco capitalist would put 100000
into Los Angeles real estate. This was
consummated two days ago, when DIR.
j. +. Fulton sold his property on New
High street, near Franklin, to Mr..
Henderson, of San Francisco, for the
sum named above. DR.. Fulton bought
the property in the boom and put up
the building. He has made hand
some profit on the sale.
Now the HERALD can make an
other more important announcement.
J. J. Bradbury, the mining millionaire,
has bought, through his attorney, the
property of DR.. Wollweber, at the corner
of Third and Broadway, 165 feet on the
former by 120 feet on the latter, for
100000. 1t is said that Mr.. Bradbury
intends to put up a block there which
will eclipse the Bryson-Bonebrake block,
as soon as the plans can he prepared.
Preparations are also under way to
put up fine block on Spring street,
nearly opposite the Los Angeles theater.

A BIG DOG FIGHT.
1t Occurred at Santa Anita and Cost
Some Money.


Some Money.
''Lucky" Baldwin, at his Santa Anita
palace, has a parlor which, besides
other expensive decorations, contains a
thousand dollar French pier glass and a
number of smaller ones. Yesterday
some visitors were taken through the
house, and at last were shown the salon
de glaces, which had not been entered
for two days. AS the door was opened
an immense creature sprang out with an
eerie howl and disappeared. Within
was scene of ruin and wreck. Costly
silk covered furniture was torn to pieces,
the thousand dollar mirror and all the les
ser ones were broken to smithereens, and
everything at all fragile was fractured.
Investigation showed that one of the
famous Santa Anita mastiffs had got
into the room, and seeing in the mirrors
countless reflections OF himself had
commenced fight with what to him
appeared to be hundred opponents.
In the course of the contest he had
broken the furniture, torn valuable pic
lures and smashed all the mirrors. The
loss to Mr.. Baldwin will amount to a
couple of thousand dollars, but he still
has the dog.

IN THE WRONG BANK.
A Mistake in Sending Funds Causes
Mr.. Bell Trouble.

NAIs Dell 4IOuplcs
F. v. Bell, young attorney, was ar
rested yesterday afternoon by Officer
Mcguire ON a warrant charging him
with having obtained property from
Gibson & Tyler, the Spring-street shoe
dealers, by means of false pretenses.
The complainant, a salesman named
Harry Jackins, alleged that on the 22d
ford tie shoes for 81, and rendered in
payment therefor a check for 81 on the
Broadway bank, for which he received
So in change. The cheo6 was not pre-
sented to the bank for some reason or
other until the 27th S.-st., when it
was dishonored, Bell not having
any funds ON deposit there.
Bell was communicated with and ex-
planned the matter by stating that he
was expecting some money from San
Francisco at that time, and as previous
remittances had been sent to the Broad
way bank, he supposed that this one
would also 60 there. 1t had, however,
been sent to the Los Angeles National
bank, and he expressed his regret at the
unfortunate mistake and offered to make
the amende honorable Apparently
this was not done soon enough to suit
Gibson and Tyler, as complaint was
filed in Justice Austin's court Yesterday,
and Attorney Bell was subsequently ar
rested as above stated.
At 4 O'Clock, however, Bell appeared
before Justice Austin, accompanied by
lacking, the complainant, and the latter
acknowledging full and entire satisfac-
tion, asked that the case be dismissed.
The court had no option in the matter,
and the costs having been paid, the
charge was dismissed and the defendant
discharged.

Reasons Why the Labor Unions Should
Not Vote for Him.

Not Vote for Him.
To the Printers Union and Other Labor Unions
of Los Angeles:
On the 9th of August the Printers
Union went out on strike. To those
not directly concerned, the supposition
was that the cause was mat
ter of wages. The Printers Union
has now had ample opportunity to
judge whether their movement was
wise zone or not; it was their fight, in
which others as general thing do not
care to mix. On the evening of the
strike, Mr.. Z. A. Forester. the Repub-
]ican candidate for supervisor in the
Third district, had published the follow
ing article in the Los Angeles Times:
"wil Help Out"
Los ANGELES, Aug. 6, 1890.
To the Times:
81 notice the demands of the Los An
geles Typographical Union. I think
them unjust, and will readily submit to
any inconvenience resulting from your
resisting such demands.
