CITYLANDS.

No doubt thsre is another scheme on
foot for the disposal of the city lands to a
local syndicate AT a price which in the
widest fight of the imagination would
not be considered extortionate. The Sra
has again revived the subject and alludes
to the fastthatths property was almost
as well as sold last summer to a syndicate
represented by City Treasurer A. D. Kd-
ley. The price offered was s4S 600 and
this it saws would have been sufficient to
construet the Central avenue visduct.
As the lowest bid submitted for the work
was about SIS. 600, We cannot conceive
how the price offered for the city land
would have covered the cost Of construc
ton.
According tn the SUI. however. the
failure to make the sale was- to a great
extent due TO the opposition Expressed by
TUE LEADEa. and T.. this We frankly
and eheerfuliy plead guiltE.7s As we
stated q tho time we, did not believe it
was an exhibition of good taste for the
city treasurer to come forward with a bid
to purchase city land. even though it was
known that he represented a syndicate
which was alleged to be composed Of
other city officials and at least one terri
torial official. 1t should not be forgotten
that the city council was then. as it is
now, composed OF eight republicans and
one democrat II The LEADERS pro-
test entered at that time was not based
on substantial grounds, it is not probable
it would have so radically influenced the
city council. particularly il. as is now
alleged. the movement was so conducive
to the public welfare.
The viaduct should have been built
last summer" says the Sun. and the
delay has been damaging to the city. to
individuals and IO-ths Union Pacific.
All of which is undoubtedly true and we
have never heard any one with preten-
lions to common sense who has alleged to
the contrary. That the viaduct was not
built Is a matter in which the city council
and railway company fare altogether to
blame. The understanding was that the
railway company would itself build the
viaduct. the city to pay it p specified sum
for the work with interest for five years at
the end Of which time the principal was
to be paid. On this understanding the
matter was allowed to drag along all sum
mer and now when it is too late to
egin o~jnstruotion this season 1t is
discovered that the city wall
be obliged to undertake the
work itself and the city council is at its
wits end to know what to do. Tho mu-
nicipal body has hung on TO the coat
tails of the railroad officials so long that it
seems unable to undertake any public
work unless the company will 20 security
for the city or actually do tho work itself
and wait until the city OF Cheyenne is
able to repay it. This has besn a hnmilt-
atins state OF affairs and it has rot
been conducive to the local pride which
should be part and parcel of every genuine
citizen Of Cheyenne.
We have now a long winter before us.
1t will afford ample time for a discussion
of ways and means, Let the subject be
gone into thoroughly SO that the people
may understand it. We have had enough
Of deals and midnight c~aueuses; the sub
ject should now be gone into openly and
above board.

TIE STATE VOTE


According to the footings made by the
state board OF canvassers yesterday the
total vote cast at the September election
was 5000. At the delegate election two
years ago there were 1900 votes, indi-
eating a falling off Of 1859. Carbon
county suffers most in this falling of even
when the vote of Natrona, which was
formed from Carbon. is excluded. The
loss is about 554 votes. Laramie loses
about $50. Albany 424, Sweetwater 40l.
This great falling of is OF course due to
the introduction OF the Australian system,
the indifference to registration displayed
particularly IN some Of the country pre-
cincts within the established railroad limit
and to the tardy discovery hat a section
Of the law had been omitted in engross,
ment so that, contrary to the general i'm
preston, when a voter failed TO register
because of absence or sickness he was not
permitted To swear ia his vote on election
day.
The Highest MATURITY received on the
state ticket was that Of e. d. Clark for
congress. amounting to 2s567;a falling
off from Carey's majnrity OF two years ago
Of over 800 votes, Ganey's majority having
her been 2. 1894. Warren.s majority is
l.726, or l,l6s less than Carey's.
The result 10 the case of the supreme
court ticket is, surprising because OF the
relatively small msiorities. Judge Coma.
way received the highest vote on the re
publican ticket aud Judge Corn on the
democratic ticket. The majority re-
ceived by Conway over Corn was ], 3o5,

HERETOFORE London has fixed the
price OF silver, but since the passage Of
the silver bill the price of that metal
has been regulated from this side of the
Atlantic. The fixing of the price OF sill
Yer by the London bullionists meant
more than appeared upon its face, for it
regulated the price of American staples
IN the markets ei tie world. Therefore
the lower down silver coSld be forced,
the less our wheat and cotton cou..d be
sold for, because the products Of the
East Indies were all paid for in silver;
and the less paid for them the less paid
for the American staples. The tables
are now turned, however. The monthly
demand of the United States govern
ment for 100000 ounces of silver will
force that metal to parity with gold,
and the British manufacturers will be
compelled to pay 100 instead Of 50 cents
on the dollar for their wheat and cotton,
whether they buy it in India or America

Mr.. F. M. PIxLEY has lately paid a
visit to the southern counties; and, in
the last issue of his hebdomadal, he
gives his impressions of his paseo. OF
course, when pundit like Pixley tray
els, his observations, evolved from his
inner consciousness, embrace every con-
ceivable subject in the line of religion,
philosophy, science, art and the bellies
gettrcs, with an occasional oblique and
furtive attention directed to the pope
and his faithful Irish. On his
ramble Pixley found that the southern
counties were altogether lovely, and
that politics were "bilin'." He dis
covered that Markham was big favor
ite with the Republicans of this section,
and that Stephen M. White was a very
unfit man to succeed Stanford in the
United States senate. True as the load
stone to the north pole, Pixley discov-
cred on his trip evidences OF the
strength OF Stanford as senatorial can
didate to succeed himself. Frank
brought this idea down with him and
took it back in the original package.

THERE seems to be a slightly strained
relation between Senator w. w. Bowers
and some of the journals of his party.
Bowers, according to some accounts. is
somewhat impatient of opposition, and
holds tomahawk suspended over the
head of Markham, ready to descend and
cleave that gentleman to the chine if
the aforesaid Bowers should fail to re-
ceive the support of the Los Angeles
delegation for congress. But how is
Bowers to know how he stands?
AS the Republican state convention
meets at Sacramento before the Repub-
lican congressional convention assem-
bles at Fresno it seems to us that
Bowers will have to be clairvoyant to
get in his work. In other words, if
Markham is nominated before Bowers
comes before the Fresno convention, it
would appear to man up tree some
what difficult to int1ict upon Markham
condign punishment if his friends should
fail to stand in with the aspiring San
Diegan.

"CAN SUCH THINGS BEq"

Miracles occasionally happen in every
line of life, and perhaps the most inter
esting development that has occurred
of late is the Chronicles finding fault
with James G. Blaine for backsliding on
The tariff. That the plumed knight has
undergone change of sentiment on the
tariff is by no means improbable; but
that our metropolitan contemporary
could ever, under any stress of circum-
stances, show surcease in its ef-
fusive admiration for the modern
Henry of Navarro we confess moves
us to unwonted wonder. We had
thought that the Chronicles faith in
and love for the Jingo chief was firm as
the everlasting hills, and that divorce
between it and its fetch was not only
an improbability but an impossibility,
The indissoluble tie that bound Ephraim
to his idols was, we supposed, a loose
strand compared to that cable rope which
attached the Chronicle to the fortunes of
Jim Blaine. AS we'll could Jonathan
have been expected to go back on David,
Patroclus on Achilles or Damon on
Pythias, as the leading Republican
journal on tn Pacific coast to desert its
special preference and Jingo statesman,
the plumed knight. But, in view of
what we have seen, it would really look
as if all human calculations were at
fault, and that the Chronicle has started
in after new and perhaps equally false
gods. In the old days to admit that
Blaine could err with journal
like our Bay City contemporary
would have been something like a
denial of the Trinity to a Christian.
There must be something out of joint in
the tall and new building, or such things
could not be, overcoming us like a mid
summer cloud amid our special wonder.
The times are quite evidently out of
Joint, and the wreck of matter and the
crush of worlds may now be confidently
looked for. All of which recalls the old
,rS' elegiac refrain, 'ssic transit gloria

JUST look at it. We had a call from
Mr.. Frank Fitzgerald yesterday. He is
one of the greatest mine-owners of Inyo.
He ships all his ores to San Francisco,
where they are reduced. In order to get
to Los Angeles he was compelled to make
a circuit of twelve hundred miles, whilst
his place is within two hundred miles of
US. With direct railroad connection be-
tween Los Angeles and Inyo, the ores
that are now carried eight hundred miles
to San Francisco would come here for
separation and reduction. Here is the
cost of six hundred miles of transporta-
tion wasted for the want of direct road
to Los Angeles.

THE force bill, says the New York
World, would put from two hun
dred to three hundred Republican
heelers to work at $5 per day in every
close congressional district. The pres
ent congress has sixty-three seats rep
resenting pluralities of less than 1,500
votes. If each 'tried and trusted Re-
publican" supervisor should be good
only for three votes it would save these
sixty-three seats. ''Blocks of fve''
would be necessary only in rare cases.
1t is a scheme to perpetuate Republican
congresses at the expense Of the tax
payers and through public officials.

IT is pity that Nicoletti did not call
upon US before he commenced his libel
suit. As he does not desire the $4,000
damages for himself but for his lawyers,
we might have made a satisfactory ar
rangement with him. Perhaps they
would have compounded with us for
$25, 900 cash down, a sum SO insignificant
to Los Angeles newspaper man that he
can nearly always find it lying loose in
his vest pocket. The names of the en-
terprising lawyers who have taken the

pies are l. ]. Horrell, George w. Knox

The editorial columns of our esteemed
contemporary, the Tribune, were replete
Yesterday with many gems OF thought
which were, alas, occasionally dlslgured
by typographical errors OF somewhat
pronounced gravity, and by confusion
of Typographical details as well. Take
for instance this passage;
Mr.. Blaine's letter will 60 down in
history as the equal of Secretary
Macy's famous Mulseman letter, and
of any of Webster's diplomatic cores
pondence.
We suppose this luminous passage is
intended to apply to VIM. L. Marcy's
celebrated Hulseman letter--a very no.
BILE document indeed, and celebrated
one, and one that brought Austria to
her trumps. a
Then there is something fascinating
while rather confusing in the following
passage:
1t is not improbable that the white
people, or the better portion, will have
| the greatest need for the law. The
Farmers Alliance and the Tighlmanites
of South California, and the Anti-Hogg-
ties of Texas, will likely have occasion
to appeal to that law in order to be pro-
tected against the oligarchic Democracy.
At first sight, this is rather bewilder-
ing reading to the average Angelefo at
the breakfast table. He wonders what
in the name OF Old Ned we have to do
with Hoggites and Tilghmanites. If,
however, he will just consent to substi-
tute South Carolina for Southern Cali
fornia little light will begin to break
in upon him, and he will begin to see as
through glass, darkly.

In THE debate on the tariff bill in the

In THE debate on the tariff bill in the
senate on Friday, Senator Vest resisted
the raise of the duty on lead, notwith-
standing he represented the largest lead
producing state in the union. He said
that the lead trust had declared divi-
dend of 20 per cent even under the
present protective duty, and yet the
rate of wages had never been raised by
them, notwithstanding the Republican
claim that the more the protection the
higher the wages. Senator MCPHERSON
showed clearly that even the present
duty on lead was too much. He said he
met friend in New York who owns a
lead mine out west. He told him he was
offered 81 900 900 for his property by the
lead trust, if he would come into it..
His plant and mine were worth 5000, 900,
and he explained that the trust could
afford to pay him $1,000,000, because
they could recoup themselves by raising
the price of lead and lead products up
to the margin of the tariff. The
Mckinley bill increases the duty from
21a to 31a cents per pound, and that
will give the trust still higher margin
to fleece consumers. Notwithstanding
this lndisputable showing against in
creasing the duty, and without any at
tempt to answer the arguments Of the
Democrats, the increase was passed by
a strict party vote, yeas, %; nays, 2l.
The Republican senators remind US of
the Scotchman who said Eyes, Pm
open to conviction, but I'd like to see
the man that can do it,"

PROBABLY HUNTING INDIANS.
Two Youngsters Start Out on Their
Travels.

About II o'clock yesterday morning
little Oboin Lewis, aged 5, and David
Smith, aged 7, disappeared from the
Emerson house, on the corner of Fifth
and Olive streets, where their respective
parents reside, and although diligent
search has been made in every part of
the city not single trace of the missing
youngsters can be found. The
police were notified, and. every officer
on duty during the night watch was in
structed to look out for the truants; but
up to the hour of going to press no re-
port of their capture had been made at
headquarters.
The younger boy, when he left the
house yesterday morning, wore dark
blue straw hat and linen pants. The
parents of the boys were almost dis
tracted last night, as they are wholly
unable to account for their sudden dis
appearance, and any information re-
garding the whereabouts of their chill
dren will be thankfully received by

IT is curious fact, and one without
precedent in litigation, that the HERALD
is sued for $50, 1000 for saying that Nico-
letti had not been a convict at San
Quentin. In the article in which we
stated that from information at hand
there was San Quentin convict amongst
the delegates, no name was mentioned.
