CITY MATTERS.
Mayor Hazard VetOes An
other Ordinance.
He Differs From the Councils
Ideas.
No Reason Why Dedicated Streets
Should be Accepted.
The Board Of Public Works Makes
Recommendations Regarding
Street Matters.

A few weeks ago the city council
passed an ordinance accepting all streets,
parks or alleys heretofore or hereafter to
be dedicated to the city. This, in it's
regular course, went to the mayor, who
yesterday sent to the council the follow
ing message, giving his reasons for de-
clining to sign the ordinance: l think
the best plan is not to accept any park
or street until we know the terms on
which it is dedicated and the conditions
surrounding it. 1t may not be for the
public interest to accept every street or
park that is offered to be dedicated for
such purposes as provided by this
ordinance because there are certain OBJ
legations resting on the municipality
regarding the maintenance of our parks
and streets, and don't think it advisa-
BILE to thus, in advance of any dedica-
ton and in the dark, practically an
nounce that any one may dedicate a
piece'of land for street or park, and it
thereupon becomes such without further
action on the part of the city, carrying
with it a corresponding obligation on
our part to take care of it. To illus
trate: A short time ago piece of land
was offered to the city for park. 1t
consisted of a triangular piece of land at
the intersection of three streets, con-
tanning less than 190th part of an acre,
and estimating to the center of the
streets bounding the triangle was
street surface thirty times as large as
the proposed park, the improvement
of which would have been saddled on
the city, not to mention the cost of inn
proving this park and maintaining it
subsequently. In many parts of the city
unnecessary streets are laid out without
any regard to the topography of the sur
rounding country or their necessary con-
nection with other streets and without
any consideration for drainage, which
has of late resulted in so much trouble
and inconvenience to. our people. To
accept all these streets without question
would hardly be justifable after our ex-
periences in that line. This ordinance
is loaded. Let every street or park
scheme be presented on its merits be-
fore action is taken on it.

PUBLIC WORKS.
Recommendations to be Acted Upon
by the Council,

Recommendations to be Acted Upon
by the Council.
The board of public works met yester-
day and decided to make the following
recommendations to the council:
That the city engineer be instructed
to present an ordinance of intention to
grade, gravel and curb under specifica-
ton No. the sidewalk on the east side
of Alameda street from the north curb
line of San Francisco street to the west
erly curb line of San Fernando street
opposite the northerly corner of lot 145
of the Beaudry water works tract.
That on the protest of Mrs. A. Huber
ct al, as the street superintendent has
since published notice in accordance
with ordinance of intention and as pet-
tioners were laboring under misappre-
hension as to the side of the street for
sidewalk, that the protest be denied.
That on the petition OF John Colds
worthy ct al. the city engineer be in
structed to present an ordinance of in
tention to establish the grade on Sixth
street between Main and Alameda.
That the petition of M. McGreal to
establish the grade of First street from
Booth street to the west city line on
grade of one in twenty be referred to
the city engineer for investigation and
report.
The board recognizes the necessity OF
better system for keeping clean the
streets in the business portion of the
city, and is only waiting for the street
superintendent to repair all defective
places in cutters, etc., of bituminous
rock streets, which was ordered two
weeks ago, when, together with the
board of health, we will consider the
subject of sweeping, sprinkling, flush
ing cutters, etc. Flushing cutters full
of holes would only help to create one of
the nuisances complained of. We can
only urge that the street superintendent
Immediately begin the work referred to,
which, we learn will begin today, July
2Sth.
In regard to the change in the grade
of Teed street, recommended that the
accompanying ordinance be passed.
In regard to the repairs on Mozart
street, which matter was referred to this
board, recommended that the street su-
perintendent resume work and complete
the repairs.
In the matter of franchise of the
Elysian Park Railroad Company, call
attention to a protest which represents
nearly the entire frontage, on account
of which recommended that action be
deferred two weeks.
That the protests of Mrs. William
Ferguson and G. H. White ct al. against
the proposed grading of Yale street be-
tween Alpine and Bernard, be filed, as
they have protested under misappre-
hension as to the flow of water.
That the city engineer be instructed to
present an ordinance of intention to
grade, gravel and curb Fourth street,
between Wall and San Pedro streets,
under specifications No. 5.

SANTA BARBARA FISH.
They Are Being Killed by Giant Powder
Explosions.

There are mountain trout in the
brooks of Santa Barbara county enough
to satisfy any sportsman, but the supply
will not last, for mercenary vandals are
blowing the fish out of the water with
giant powder. Eugene Maxwell, every
protoplasm of whose being vibrates with
sportsmanlike tendencies, arrived on
Tuesday from an extended trip through
Santa Barbara and Ventura counties.
He went up to Santa Ynez, and on the
down stage noticed couple of boxes of
trout, probably containing twenty-five
pounds of fresh fish. He made some in
quiries and found that they had come
from the Santa Ynez river; that the
man who shipped them to the Santa
Barbara market sent about the same
consignment every day, and he was in
formed that the fishing was done by

A DOCTORS REBUKE.
Immensely More Mischief than is GEN
orally Suspected.

Dr.. King, the eminent medical writer, in a
learned disquisition on our national COM
plant, constipation, says:-
The great quantity of cathartic pills, etc.
which are annually swallowed by the people of
this country has been productive of immensely
more mischief than is generally suspected.
True, the physc unloads the bowels, but in so
doing its action tends to diminish the tone of
the intestines; SO that, instead of removing the
costiveness, it aggravates it, leaving the bowels
in more torpid condition.
joys Vegetable Sarsaparilla was designed to
fill just such contingency as the doctors ar
raignment anticipates, viz: instead of being
powerful mineral purgative, it is a mild vege-
table laxative, that, owing to its solvent and
gentle stimulating properties, is SO certain re-
lief in constipation that it has been given away
to hundreds, not to be paid for unless it was of
positive benefit. treplaces constipation almost
Immediately with a natural easy habit, and is
SO mild that, unlike drastic purgatives, it can
be taken indefinitely with perfect freedom and
safety.

THE RAMONA CONVENT.
How Visitor Was Impressed by the
Institution.

To the Editors of the Daily Herald.
DEAR SIRs-Passing through the San Gabriel
valley, saw looming in the distance structure
of no ordinary mien. Wishing to take cogniz-
ance of every interesting feature of this privi-
the newly laid out grounds of the aforesaid
building, ventured to solicit admission The
courteous, kindly reception rendered me made
me free to inquire into the aim of the institu-
ton, its methods of teaching, curriculum of
study, etc., and the result of these inquiries
was both earnest and convincing. Here, be-
thought me, is the proper place for the child to
be trained int o the refined cultured young lady
and, as a natural consequence, to see her
develop later into the noble and cultured woman
Away from the turmoil of the city, which is
such a favorable condition for study, and
breathing in the pure air of the country, rare
physical boon; the mind naturally charme by
natures lovely surroundings, taste is uncon-
sciOusly developed, while the soul is elevated
by refined and chastened influences. What
more could we desire for our daughters,
whose great mission is to raise the moral
structure of society? For, says well known
writer, "the hand that rocks the cradle, governs
the world
We, therefore, wish this newly rising institu-
tion all the success which il has right to ex-
pect; and we citizens of the southern part of
California, must remember we have duty to
perform, viz: making the foundation of society,"
as well as giving it moral status, by sending
forth into its arena virtuous, refined and
educated women. TRAVELLER.

SUPERIOR JUDGES.
The Question as to How Many Are to
Be Elected.

EDITORS HERALD-How many superior
judges are to be elected in this county
next November? The almost universal
opinion is that there are to be four and
that Judges Van Dyke and Wade hold
over for four years more, being elected
in 1888 for six years. But carefully
read the constitution of 1879 on the SUBJ
ject (article vi, section g. and the act
of February Z, 1887, increasing the num-
Der of judges, and see if you do not
think they all 60 out of Office.
Article vi, section 6, provides that
there shall be at least one superior
judge in each county. To this rule,
Yuba and Sutter together shall have
only one; class OF counties, including
Los Angeles, shall have two, and San
Francisco, city and county, shall have
twelve, four of whom, by special pro-
vision, go out of office each two years.
The term of Office is fixed at six years.
The last clause of the section is as fol-
lows:
eff vacancy occur in the Office of
judge of a superior court, the governor
shall appoint person to hold the office
until the election and qualification of
judge to fill the vacancy, which election
shall take place at the next succeeding
general election, and the Judge so
elected shall hold Office for the re-
mainder Of the unexpired term"
Article VI, section g., of the constitu-
tion, provides for increasing the num-
Der of judges.
The legislature of 1887 (see statutes of
1887, chapter q increased the number of
Judges for this county from two to four,
and enacted that:
Sec. 2.-Within ten days after the
passage of this act February 7, 1887
the governor shall appoint two addi-
tional judges of the superior court OF

They Are High and the Market is
Good.
The Producers Union" appears to
be booming prices; it sold yesterday "a
tons of apricots at 134 to 141s cents per
pound, and contracted for 16 tons more.
Peaches it is disposing OF at from 13 to
IA cents, and walnuts are up to 9A
cents.
1t has also made dicker with some
Denver dealers to take all the cabbage
crop, or as much as can be contracted
for at from 80 to IS per cent. higher
prices.
A new enterprise which is being fos-
tered by the union is that of evaporated
vegetables. There is a firm in San
Francisco which is now buying all the
onions they can contract for at from 13
to 131a cents per pound, when the price
formerly was but AZ cents. They
evaporate and compress the onions and
have developed large export trade for
them.
