A Parliamentary Knot.

WAsHINGToN, D. C., Sept. 10.-Accord- ing to the views of some of the democratic members the house has got itself into an unprecedented parliamentary knot, which prevents the speaker from assuming the duties of his office. The first rule of the house provides that the speaker ''shall cause the journal of the proceedings of the last days sitting to be read, having previ- ously examined and approved the same" The speaker not having been present yes terday, and his place having been taken by the speaker pro tenn, he, of course, could not approve the journal, and until that is done he cannot (according to this view) as- sume the office of presiding officer.

 LONDON, Sept 10.-The striking dock laborers, sailors and fremen at South ampton still maintain menacing attitude and the authorities fear that there may be further rioting. Notwithstanding the fact that large force of police from London and other places are at Southampton for the purpose of aiding the local authorities in preserving order. further attachments of troops have been summoned to assist in putting down any overt demonstrations that the mob of strikers may attempt. Some of the strikers have gone out in small boats to await the arrival of incom- ing steamers with the object of persuading their crews to join the strike. The admir- alty has been asked to assist in preventing this move of the strikers. Eight men were arrested for taking part in the rioting yes terday. To-day a mob gathered about the mayors residence and made threatening demonstrations. The mayor telephoned for assistance and number of soldiers were dispatched in cabs to disperse the crowd

The Naval officers indicated.

POMONA, CAL, Sept. 70, 1890.
EDITORS HERALD: In an editorial
entitled "The Barrundia Surrender"
appearing in the Weekly HERALD of
September 9th, you animadvert most
severely on the conduct of the naval
officers for not rendering assistance
when appealed to by Captain Pitts. At
the close of the article you say: "We
blush for our flag, we bow in deepest
shame at the unworthy conduct of the
American naval officers, etc., Now
in all this you do yourselves as well
as those naval officers the greatest
injustice. The whole responsibility for
the disgraceful affair rests with
Minister Miner. If you will take
the trouble to investigate, you will
find that the commanding officers of
those gunboats were under the orders of
this man Miner. =. 1t is customary in
such cases for the naval forces to act
under the orders of the minister to the
country where the trouble occurs. am
intimately acquainted with the person
mel of our navy; it certainly is of the
very best, not excelled by that of any
nationality on earth. So blush for the
administration that appointed such an
incompetent coward if you will, blush
for the man himself, and you will do
we'll; but spare the naval officers your
bushes and shame, for they certainly do
not deserve them. Hear both sides and
do justice to all. JUsTITIA.

THE Republicans begin to realize the
serious error they committed at Sacra-
mento when they gave deaf ear to the
earnest request of the representatives OF
the Federation of Labor to endorse in
their platform the Australian ballot
system. The labor committee was not
even treated with decent courtesy, as
has been publicly stated, and to show
that the party had no sympathy with
the class to be protected by the secret
ballot, it entirely ignored the whole
matter in its platform. Republicans
have been trying in feeble and ineffec-
tual manner to retrieve their error ever
since. Their state central committee
made lame declarations in favor of the
Australian ballot system, and Markham
himself declared that he also wants it.
Now we have our own county Republi-
can convention also placing an Austria
liam plank in its platform. But all this
eleventh hour effort at repentance does
not bind the party, or alter the fact that
the only authority that could have spok-
en- for the party failed to do 90. The
party, as party, is bound by the action
of its state convention, and on that action
it must stand or fall. The Aus tralian
ballot law is live issue in this cam
paign. The Democratic party stands
square and fair upon it. The Republican
party has repudiated it, and all the
patchwork of it's state central committee,
the declarations of its leading candi-
dates and the fulminations of county
convention here and there will not suf-
fee to overcome the unfavorable at
titude which was assumed by its only
authorized mouthpiece, the state con-
yentiOn
Los Angeles herald., 1890-10-02
The Republican convention yesterda

The Republican convention yeste rday
took new departure which it will be
well for the Democrats to initiate when
they meet to make county nominations.
The manipulators and ward strikers had
parceled out all the nominations in adj
vance, and had carried the primaries in
this city in the interest of slate. The
country delegates, who are always square,
and who only want fair deal, arrived
here to find that the ring had already
parceled out the Offices, and filled the
delegations from the wards with men
compromised in favor of the slate. But
the country delegates soon decided upon
their course. They stood in with the
few independent delegates elected in the
city, and passed resolution which fell
into the ranks of the .manipulators like
q bombshell. They declared for secret
ballot, to be cast individually by each
delegate as his name was called. This
acted like a stemwinder upon the slate
makers. A secret ballot meant that
they could not tell whether the goods
hankered after would be delivered or
not. We shall see today how this new
departure will work. 1t will certainly
prove advantageous to the country as
pirants for nominations.
Los Angeles herald., 1890-10-02

some of the third-rate Republican pa
pers seem to be carried off their base by
Markham's triumphal hand-sh aking
march, and declare that he is just con-
quering as he goes. Just SO. But it
would be far more in keeping with truth
for these papers to give out the cold facts,
and say, what everybody knows, that
whoever listens to Col. Markham s
schoolboy Rotations, realizes at once his
intellectual feebleness and his wonder
full ignorance of state affairs, and goes
away, if Republican, Inundated and
chopfallen; and if Democrat, amazed
thata great party should be SO namely
represented at the head of its ticket.

A FEW years ago Mr.. George w. Leck-
les, in intelligent and enterpiising Ger
man, went up into the mountains back
of Sespe, took up government claim,
and set up an apiary on a small scale
He cleared patch of land and planted
it in trees and vines and made himself a
snug home. He now has most pictur-
esque and beautiful place, which he has
aptly termed Oak Park. He has so
greatly improved it in every way
that there is not a more invit-
ing mountain home in Califor-
mia. He has steadily increased his
stands of bees and made honey his prin-
cipal industry. A few weeks ago he
sold to the agent of an eastern firm
forty tons of honey at the rate OF 81
cents pound delivered on the cars at
Rivera station. This was his seasons
crop, and yielded him net nearly FIVE
thousand dollars. 1t will surpass that
next season, as he is constantly adding
to his Glands. In the meantime his
fruit trees are coming into bearing and
M. Leckles is on the road to fortune.
This shows what foresight. pluck and
energy can do in our mountains, where
there are etill thousands OF acres OF
government land to be had.

ADJUSTMENTS.
Mr.. Henry E. Dixey In Adonis at the
Grand. ~fr

An immense house of all the first
nighters, the fashion, youth and beauty
of Los Angeles, assembled at the Grand
last night to welcome back Henry K.
Dixey in his Adonis. The play is not
what it was when here last, for it is
very much improved in many important
features. Mr.. Dixey's own part is the
same. 1t could not easily be improved
upon. But all the accessory business in
Guiding the music is nearly all new, and
all changed for the better.
The house went into ecstacies OF APP
plause and was uproarious in
its appreciation of the entertain
ment. At several points it was
next to impossible to satisfy the
appetite of the people who would have
more and more of the fun.
Adonis tonight again, and tomorrow
night the Seven Ages.
The Circus Today.
Old John Robinson's great circus will
be here today. 1t is really the greatest
show on the road, or rather a dozen of
the greatest shows all rolled into one.
At 10 a. m. there will be great street
parade from the place where the covers
will be spread, near the Arcade depot, up
Fifth street to Main, to the Plaza, back
to Spring, to Eighth, to Broadway, to
Second, to San Pedro and back to the
Arcade. There will be a matinee at 2
p. m., and the great performance at
night. See the herd of elephants in the
street parade and the show too.

which will take place at the pavilion on
Saturday and Sunday evenings, promises
to be largely attended. The tickets are
selling rapidly and the ladies of the w.

many requests have reached the man.
agement for reserved seats, that the en-
tire lower portion of the house will be
reserved at ten cents extra. All, how
ever, who purchased tickets previously
of w. R. G. members will be admitted
down stairs at the admission price of
twenty-five cents.

THE prompt conviction and sentence
to death of Burchell, in Canada, has
drawn the attention of Americans to
the marked difference between the
United States and the Dominion in the
administration of justice. Burchell
was accused of an atrocious murder.
The evidence against him was altogether
circumstantial, and the force OF
it was weakened by the witnesses
for the defense, who gave credible
testimony pointing to an alibi, and also
to facts that tended to show that the
crime might have been committed by
other parties. We have no hesitation in
saying that Burchell could not have
been convicted in the United States,
notwithstanding the conclusiveness of
the proof adduced against him. The
lawyers would have hung the jury, and
each successive tria! would have
been weaker, until finally The
would have been released on nolle pros
equi, and miscarriage Of justice would
have been the result. Criminals in Can
ada, no matter what their station, are
convicted. With us it is almost an alb
solute impossibility to convicta criminal
who has friends, and if he is backed by
wealth he can snap his fingers at the
law
