THE transference of Mr.. l. w. He'll
man from the presidency of the Far
mers and Merchants Bank of Los
Angeles to the presidency and control of
the Nevada Bank of San Francisco,
formed one of the financial episodes of
California finance. 1t is significant
circumstance that his translation to
theater of wider influence has in no whit
diminished our late townsman's devo-
ton to his old home. One of the editors
of the HERALD recently had occasion to
look in on Mr.. Hellman, and was pleased
to find him as enthusiastic on Los An
geles as ever. AS he said to us, although
he could disengage his monetary affairs
here in six weeks, he has not with
drawn dollar from Los Angeles, nor
offered dollars worth of his property
here for sale. He has carefully re-
Trained from forfeiting his residence as
Los Angeles voter, and we are quite
likely to see him down here to vote for
Mayor Pond, his favorite Democratic
candidate for Governor at all stages, as
the writer happens to know-a circum-
stance in which he agrees with nearly
all clear-headed Democrats. Angelefios
will be pleased to know that Mr.. He'll
man entertains the most sanguine views
of the future of this city and county.
He thinks that we have safely passed
the crisis; and that an era of prosperity,
founded on actual production, and un-
limited possibilities OF production, has
set in. Many of our people will be glad
to know that this is the real opinion OF
this sagacious financier, which is the
reason why we throw it into the shape
of an editorial note.

has used up all the surplus that was
caused by European demonetization.
The statistical situation as set forth in
the most unfavorable light shows that
supply will not equal demands, which
fact must advance prices and sustain
them, regardless of the efforts of the
monometalists.
There are two other factors in the
problem, however, which have been
left out of the calculation, because they
are not important. One is that the adj
vanced price for silver will stimulate
production and increase the supply,
and the other is that advanced
prices will curtail manufacturing con-
sumption, thereby reducing demands.
AS the price of the silver bullion used in
manufactures is but small part of
their cost, the latter item will be signif-
can't Production will be stimulated, it
is true, but we do not believe it can
cause an increase that can possibly
exceed 100000 ounces per year. Both
factors combined do not affect the fact
that supply will not equal demand by
several million ounces.-[ Intermountain

Silver Shortage Likely.

The London Economist is authority for
the statement that India will require
65,OOO,OOO ounces of silver during the
coming year. The United States will
purchase, if the new silver act is ex-
ecuted in spirit 54, 100000 ounces, while
all authorities estimate that 10000, 900
ounces is small amount to be used by
the manufacturers of the world. Thus
there will be absorbed 100000 900
ounces in these three directions
alone. Then there is the
demand from China, and the
amounts used for coinage in Mexico and
the South America countries, which GER
tainly will amount to several million oun-
ces more, while the world production
as estimated by the United States mint
in the most productive year did not
equal 13O, ,000, 900 ounces. This is the
estimate Of production and consumption
as made by gold monometalists, and it
shows that the known consumption
for the coming year will be 10000
600 ounces in excess of what production
has been in the most productive year
that has ever passed. There are other
statistics gathered which show that for
fifteen years past the consumption of
silver has been over 100000 ounces
per year more than production, which

DISCUSSING DROWNING.
Keep Your Breath and Your Head are
the Main Points

The New York Times in some "Hints
on drowning" says: keep your
breath is, of course, the best advice to
people who wont be advised not to trife
with the liquid which both floats and
strangles. The next best advice is: /:
'Keep your head" If in threatening
circumstances, think. If you are swim
ming in the breakers, reflect that the ap-
preaching wave, which suddenly looks SO
high, will certainly lift you to its
heighth before the foamy comber breaks
about your ears. And when the pass
ing wave sinks beneath your falling
body, have no fear that you will be
swallowed in the watery abyss. Moth
ing more eXhausts an ocean swimmer
than useless efforts to climb an approach
ing mountain OF water, or to float down
ward more slowly than the receding
wave.
The water will float very nearly all
women and most men in such position
that they can breath if the limbs are
allowed to sink. But the arms can only
be thrust higher than the head at the
cost of submerging the nose. In exactly
the same way, If one edge of a life pre-
server be depressed it's mass will turn as
on pivot and the opposite edge will
rise without giving much increase
of floating power. Just as nearly the
whole body must be submerged to ele-
vate the nose, so life preserver must
be wholly depressed to give its greatest
floating power. Therefore plank or a
log should be grasped at its middle and
not at its end, but, on the other hand, a
boat should be seized at the stern in
stead of the middle, unless the object be
to roll its gunwales under and fill it.

The Stock Yards Trouble.

CHICAGO, August 2s.-Representatives
of the Switchmen's Mutual Aid Associa-
tion held a meeting this morning with the
grievance committees of the switchmen
on all the roads running into Chicago.
The meeting was called to devise means,
if possible, to settle the difficulties threat
ening the railway traffic of the city. Before
the meeting was opened, Grand Organ
izer Hall said to reporter: ''The stu
alton is just this. If any road attempts
to compel the switchmen to handle
freight from the stockyards, it will
speedily have strike ON it's hands.
In this way the matter will be
brought to the attention of the associa-
ton, which will make the fight it's own.
In that way general tie-up of all the
roads may become reality"
There is prospect of a settlement OF
the Chicago and Alton strike. The
committee of the strikers was in con-
ference with the general manager

PROSPERITY VERSUS POLITICS.

Even in periods OF political excitement
there are other questions of great
interest. In Los Angeles this is especially
the case. There are points of great
moment in this section which are in
dependent of both the great political
looked. For now these two years and
four or five months the celebrated Los
Angeles boom has been thing of the
past. The process OF liquidation has
gone on with memorable force, and many
a good and sanguine citizen has been
frozen out, although the fact should be
borne in mind that there has been
nothing like a panic hereabouts,
and although all solid men have
held their own. Just now,
new railway developments are on the
tapis. We have no hesitation in advis-
ing our readers to stand in with them.
When has Los Angeles county ever suf-
fered from the building Of railways?
The easy answer is, never" And we
might add, she never will. 1t is the
thronging advent OF railways to this Sec
ton that has already made the city and
county as opulent region as places Gel
ebrated in the storied lands of the Med
iterranean that were hoary with age when
Christopher Columbus importuned Fer
dinand and Isabella for aid to launch
the expedition which resulted in the
discovery of America. Whether Mr..
Pond or Col. Markham shall be elected
governor of California, the fact remains
that new, enduring and substantial
boom is ahead for this region-a boom
based on production remunerative
without parallel, and absolutely without
a precedent in variety OF staples. AL
ready Los Angeles county is grid-ironed
with railways, local and trans-continen-
tai. More trans-continentalr railways are
on their way here, and they will be at
tidewater on the Pacific within eighteen
months. They will bedistinctively tribu-
tary to Los Angeles, as the old ones are.
What prescience is needed to tell
what the inevitable effect of our enor-
mously stimulated production and rail
way development will be in country
like Southern California, and particular
ly that portion OF it known as LosAngeles
county Any man who has seen the 'dobie
houses fashionable here ten years ago
transformed into the palaces of today will
be excused for looking for tremendous
results, and the actuality will exceed the
anticipation just as greatly as was the
case in the last decade. The new era is
on hand. 1t will be one of marvellous
development, and no man can even
family portray its glories. The forerun-
ners of the new and substantial boom,
founded not upon the destruction but
the extension of vineyards, orchards
and other wealth-creating agencies, are
already here. By the middle Of Octo-
Der even a wayfarer, though fool, will
be convinced that the best place in
which to invest money on the American
continent is in Los Angeles city and
county.

The Republican papers are still keep
ing up their miserable twaddle about
Buckley having nominated Pond. The
desperation of their cause could not be
better shown than by such imbecile
tactics. The HERALD showed conclu-
sively yesterday that Pond would have
been nominated without single vote
from Buckleys followers in the San
Francisco delegation, and that the boss
threw his strength for Pond in order not
to be left out in the cold in the final
stampede. This effort of the Republican
press is the more laughable because
Dick Chute, Crimmins and Sconchin
Maloney went over to Markham .on the
first ballot. 1t is not alleged that any
followers of Buckley's voted for Pond
until the fourth ballot. The attempt to
blind any intelligent voter to the true
state of the facts will be loves labor
thrown away. The square record of
Pond in all official quarters is too clearly
outlined to be obscured by twaddle
about Buckley.

American and Spanish Intervention
Restores Peace.

GUATEMALA, August 2S.-The peace
treaty has been signed in San Salvador
by President Ezeta and his minister Of
state. and submitted in all its parts to
congress. The ultimate success of the ar
rangement is due to the combined efforts
of the American minister, Miner, and
the Spanish minister, Alrellano.
Cry OF MEXICO, August 28.-A Qua
temala dispatch today received by Seilor
Dieguez, the Guatemala minister, an
nounces that Barrillas last night ratified
the stipulations of peace with San Sal
vador, presented by the diplomatic
corps, which stipulations were approved
beforehand by Gen. Ezeta. The principal
condition is that the de facto Salvador
ian government binds itself Immediately
to convoke the legislative assembly
which existed before July 22d. This
assembly will decide on the presidency
of Ezeta. This proves that Ezeta has
accepted Guatemalan intervention in
Salvadorian affairs. In this he did we'll
because this affair is not
of local but of Central American
interest. This assembly is not constitu-
tional, but is an ordinary legislative
body, and as such can only decide ques-
tions in compliance with the constitu-
ton. Geronimo Pou, the Salvadorian
agent here, says he has received no
news of the signing of peace.

THERE seems to be a terrible lot OF
travail at Fresno over the nomina-
ton of congressman. Senator w. W..
Bowers, of San Diego, went there in the
full assurance that his transcendant
merits would be recognized, and that a
very early ballot would declare him the
victor. By this time he is sadder and
wiser man. The fight has been an
envenomed one, and it will doubtless
result in vendettas. The natural Bit
terness incident to such prolonged
struggle has doubtless been intensified
by the antics OF the mercury, which, at
this season of the year, at Fresno, has
often been known to knock the top off
of the bulb. Without being the eseventh
son of seventh son, the HERALD ven
lures the prediction that the squabbles
OF the Republicans under superheated
sun will result in enmities of long stand
ing that will inure to the profit of the
Democratic candidate.

YESTERDAY the Los Angeles Typo

graphical Union, which, in naughty
manner, flung itself out of the HERALD
Office, sought conference with the pro-
prietors of this journal. They showed
a disposition to reconsider their imper'
ious determination, and would have
abated some of their high pretensions.
As the HERALD had nothing to do with
inaugurating the strike, and simply
sought to protect its own business inter

satisfactory service irrespective of the
Union, and as it did not propose to
betray the workmen who had aided it

MUZZLING THE TICKERS.
A New System in Distributing Stock Ex-
change Quotations.


New YORK, August 2S-It was stated
on Wall street today that the governor
of the New York stock exchange had de-
cided to change the present system of
distributing quotations, and that
after September 1st immediate re-
ports of transactions and quotations
would be given only to members of the
exchange. This statement is apparent
ly confirmed by the fact that the stock
quotation tickers controlled by the New
York exchange were yesterday
placed in the Western I'm
ion building on Broad street,
building where heretofore no wires
or instruments but those of the Western
Union company had been allowed to be
placed. This departure from past usage
gives ground for belief that arrange
ments have been made by which the
gold and stock telegraph, which is owned
by the Western Union, will be
allowed to distribute quotations to out
siders after they have been received by
members of the exchange. Whether
there be an advance in rates, or how
much preference in the way of time be
given members, cannot yet be ascer-
