TIE orgn sud growth Of the Alliance
i notesoEthy. Il reads Ike = romance.
IL : oaly foar OF i've years since the
initial organization was formed and
that was merely FOR the purpose OF pre-
venting the ghieying cowboys OF Texas
from rounding up aud running on the
stock OF the farmers ia the vicinity Of
their ranges Al first there Was no at
tempt AZ secrecy, but soon some Of the
farmers WHIP had been members Of the
knights Of Labor established a system
OF signals and passwords similar 10
those Of the Knights, and since then
there has been just sufficient secrecy 70
prevent the admission TO the meetings
OF those who were not members of the
order
Within two years the Alliance has
absorbed the wheel, an organization
OF farmers that three years ago came
near reyoluhonizng the politics OF
Arkansas, and has taken IN the Mutual
Benefit Association of several OF the
Western States. 10 now has twenty
four different State organizations, with
upwards of 100000 members. 1t
stands IN very friendly relations with
the knights of Labor and the trade
unions, IS proceeding rapidly towards
organizations in the remaining States,
and promises at It's general assembly,
which meets at Ocala, Fla. on the "a
of December, TO have representatives
from State organizations IN every State
Of the Union TO make a formal alliance
with the Knights OF Labor and to play
a mighty part IN the politics of the
country.
In the recent elections the Alliance
secured clear majority of the Legis-
latures of North Carolina, South
Carolina. Florida, Georgia, Alabama,
Kansas ana South Dakota. In these
United States Senators are TO be elected
to succeed Pugh in Alabama, Vance in
North Carolina. Hampton in South
Carolina, Call in Florida, ingalls, in
Kansas, Brown in Georgia and Moody
IN South Dakota. Just what will be
the outcome of this Alliance preponder-
ance can not as yet be determined.
The Alliance members are for the ALI
ance first, last and always and yet 1t
would not be safe to predict that they
will Gust all the well-known Senators of
the South and West.
One thing is certain, hOwever-the
political Office seeker, or prophet, who
ignores the alliance in his calculations
is liable to Strike far wide of his mark.

however, he had insisted upon having
removed then and there.
The ditch ran through Mr.. Griffith's
barn yard further up. Here was an
other pig stye with SOW and litter,
right on the bank Of the ditch, while on
the other side was filthy duck pond.
He saw lots of dogs swimming in the
ditch. The worst place of all, however,
dently kept at night. The first rain
would certainly carry off the refuse of
the whole summer directly into the
ditch.
Further up again he found places
where cattle and horses were watered.
The only filter along the ditch is near
the County railroad, and that, Mr..
Wicks informed him, was out of order.
1t was his opinion that the ditch
should be condemned by the board in
it's present condition. For the present,
it should be fenced in until other means
can be devised. The true remedy was
that the water should be piped.
The report gave rise to a lengthy dis
cussion, during which DR.. Davisson sug-
gested that the water be subject to
chemical tests so as to ascertain first
whether or not it was as bad as it ap-
peared to be.
DIR. Kurtz suggested that the council
be requested to furnish policeman to
prevent cattle or other animals from
communicating the ditch.
DR.. Davisson said it was simply nom
sense to talk of fencing the ditch when
the reservoir itself was open, not ce-
mented, and on the side Of hill where
there must always be more or less sur
face drainage.
Mr.. G. M. Wells said that DIR. MacGow-
ans statement was all true, as he and
Mr.. Steward had gone along the line of
the ditch on Sunday last for the purpose
OF devising remedy. The immediate
remedy was within easy reach. It was
to fence in the ditch where it ran through
the plains, in order to keep out cattle
and stock; and to have it periodically
cleaned as a sanitary measure after the
causes of contamination had been
removed.
MI. Steward said that DR.. MacGowan
had made very fair statement of the
affair, but he had not conveyed one half
of the disgusting details. When he aud
Mr.. Wells went along on Sunday last
they found the water very muddy at TIE
ninety-fve head of cattle had
just gone through the ditch. This
was a daily occurrence, and they
were kept in the corral every night.
He depicted the horrible sights he had
witnessed, among them being focks Of
geese, pigs, dogs, clothes being washed
by Chinaman and several other equally
disagreeable things, all in the ditch on
one day, to contaminate the domestic
water supply of the Hillites. At least
$4,000 people used that water, and to
supply them with filters would cost at
least $780, 900 at a low estimate. He
therefore thought it the duty of the
board to compel Wicks to put inlflters,
as he got his water for nothing and

The People Demand A Better

A Ditch Contaminated by All
Sorts of Domestic Animals.
The Citizens Water Company VigOr
Ously Denounced.
Last Nights Session of the Board o
Health-Dr. MacGowan's Report-The
Council Asked for Assistance.

At the regular meeting of the board of
health commissioners held last night in
the city hall there were present, in addi-
ton to Mayor Hazard, Drs. j. B. Davis
son, M. Hagan, Jos. Kurtz, and health
officer MacGowen, the following mem
bers of the citizens water committee.
Messrs. G. M. Wells, j. T. Sherward, B.
A. Breakey. j. Yarnell and Jas. Burdett,
who appeared to call the attention OF
the board to the disgusting condition
of the ditch through which the water
supplied to the residents on the hills,
was run by the citizens water company.
After disposing of several unimportant
matters of routine business, Health
Officer MacGowan reported verbally that
at the request of Mr.. Steward and
other residents of the hills, he had on
Saturday last ridden on horseback along
the line of the ditch of the Citizens
water company from reservoir No. 4
to the other end through the Los
Felis ranch, to the receiving reservoir at
Ivanhoe. He found that the reservoir
was in fairly good condition, but
though he did not regard it as prejudi-
cial to health, there was in his opinion
more grass and weeds growing in it than
there should be. The ditch itself had
recently been cleaned under the direc-
ton of the zanjero, but there were
places along it's tracks that were in
horrible condition. The first of these
was at a point about quarter
of mile above the place where
the water was taken out. Here was
found a cattle corral, which though not
very near the ditch, was in such loca-
ton that after rain, the surface water
must inevitably drain into the ditch;
and that cattle had free access to the
water, was evident from their tracks on
the bank. From this point the ditch
was fairly well protected until the Los
Feliz ranch was reached, although it
was open all the way. Close to Grit
fith's house he found cattle trail lead
ing up to the mountains, crossing the
ditch, and stock had evidently been
allowed to stand and wallow in the ditch
at this point to their hearts content.
Further up was found a filthy pigstye,
which was drained into the ditch. This,

Coleman Oyated.

When the convention met at 2 O'Clock
this afternoon there were loud cries for
Coleman. Mr.. Coleman appeared on
the platform, and was received with
great enthusiasm. He made short
address, declaring that he intended to
work with all his power to secure the
election of E. B. Pond.
Del Vale for Lieutenant Governor.
OF Jones, of Butte, then nominated
r. f. Del Valle, of Los Angeles, for
lieutenant governor. The nominat lion
was made by acclamation.
Stanley for Chief Jus tice.
After r. f. De Vale OF Los Angeles
had been chosen by acclamation for
lieutenant-governor, John A. Stanley OF
Alameda was placed in nomination for
chief justice Of the supreme court, by T..
G. Coogan, of Alameda. Stanley's NOM
ination was seconded by Joseph Roths-
child, of San Francisco. Judge w. T.
Wallace, of fSan Francisco, was placed in
nomination by P. F. Dunno, and second
ed by Baldwin, of San joaquin. Stanley
was nominated for chief justice on the
first BALLOT. The vote was Wallace, 2S2 !;
Stanley, $780,
Hatch for Associate Justice.
Alter the mountainous OF candidates
for lieutenant governor and chief justice
of the supreme court were disposed of,
the chairman announced that nomina-
tions for associate justice (short term)
were i'll order. Three candidates were
placed in nomination Jackson-Hatch
OF San Jose, J. w Hughes OF San Diego,
and Robert Y. Hayne, San Mateo. By
this time the delegates had
become tired of listening to speeches,
and interrupted the seconding speeches
by calling ilnpatiently for roll call.
Hatch led strongly on the first ballot,
and when the second roll call was
half finished, the San Diego delegation
withdrew Hughes's name, as it was
apparent that Hatch would be
nominated.
San Francisco, which had given Hayne
102 votes, changed to Hatch, other
counties followed suit, and when Hatch
had received AL votes to Haynes 1870,
the nomination was made unanimous,
and the convention adjourned until morn

Totals
Intense Excitement.

The excitement which accompanied
the taking of the fourth and last ballot had
not been approached before during the
convention. Delegation after delegation
cast heavy votes for Pond, and when the
first half of the roll call was completed,
Ponds nomination seemed assured.
When San Francisco was reached Pond
was given al votes, almost the full
strength of the delegation, and the con-
vention was then thrown into perfect
uproar. The call progressed as rapidly
as possible, but owing to the great
confusion and excitement, the secretaries
were scarcely able to read and record
the votes. When Sonoma county was
reached, the there waf no longer any
doubt OF Ponds nomination. The chair
man of that delegation announced eigh-
teen solid votes for Pond, andthe excite
ment broke out afresh. Almost every
man in the convention hall was on
his feet, and the building rang hitw
cheers and shouts The red, white and
blue shields which were used to mark
the seats of the different delegations,
were torn from their fastenings and waved
in the air.
