PUEBLO, Colorado, gets an appropria-
ton OF $3.50, 900 for public building. In
the meantime Los Angeles, far more
important city than Pueblo, gets moth
ing. All the cities in the northern part
of the state of the slightest importance
have received large appropriations for
federal buildings. San Francisco,
through the efforts OF Sens ator Stanford,
is likely to get million dollars merely
to buy a lot suitable for postofice.
Los Angeles alone is left in the lurch.
The fact is this great commercial en-
porium, the seat OF a federal court and
the place in which, next to San Fran
cisco, more federal business is transacted
than in any other city on the Pacific
coast, is, and has been for four
years, without friendly represent
ative in congress- The only valuable

THE FAIR.
Many Attractions and Much Pleasure
Provided for Patrons.

Many Attractions and Much Pleasure
Provided for Patrons.
Owing doubtless to the many counter
attractions elsewhere, there was not q
very large attendance at the Catholic
fair at Turnverein hall last nj ght; but
what was lacking in numbers was made
up to some extent by the generosity oi
those who were present, and all the
booths we're we'll patronized. Father
Hartnett, as usual, was indefatigable in
his kindly efforts for the good OF the
cause. The. programme consisted o1
a series of selections by Doh's
popular orchestra, and at the conclusion
of their enjoyable performance, Mr.
Louis Mesmer, in his official capacity
as auctioneer, sold an immense mum bel
of valuable articles at ridiculously low
figures.
Many of the booths have been re.
touched and present more picturesque
appearance than on the opening night
Particularly is this the case with the
flower booth in the center of the hall
which was decorated with fairy lights
and pretty hanging baskets. Another
attraction has been made in the person
of Miss Annie Allen of San Francisco.
The fair continues for the rest Of the
week, lunches being served every day.

AS THE country division controversy

AS THE country division controversy
has already led TO a passage at arms be-
tween two pugnacious gentlemen in the
legislative lobby, we may presume that
the contest from this time forward may
assume more seriously bellicose aspect
than heretofore. The physical war was
opened by an unprovoked blow from the
fist of divisionist, and it is said the
effect OF his inpensate prowess will be
prejudicial to the cause he espouses. II
this controversy cannot be carried on
without exhibitio ns Of this kind, the bet
ter element OF the Legislature will do
we'll to bring it to an abrupt end by
,summarily tabling the bill.

In THE application Of the owner Of tn

In THE application of the owner Of the
British schooner Sayward to the supreme
court OF the United States for writ Of
prohibition to restrain the American
government from exercising jurisdiction
in Bering sea, beyond the three-mile
limit, Attorney General Miller, who ap-
peared for the United States, made a
most humiliating display of his ignor-
ance and incompetency. A special from
Washington says that his address was
more in the nature of stump speech
than an argument on admiralty law be-
fore the highest judicial body in the
country. Miller arose in all his official
importance and delivered himself of a
mixture of bad grammar and worse
rhetoric that was pitiful to listen to. He
was somewhat behind the time also in
his pronunciation. The "Beering"
sea frequently dropped from his
Lips and fell like clod OF
cold earth on his auditors. The second
syllable Of the word prohibition" was

OCCASIONALLY the HERALD likes to in
dulge in a plain statement OF fact which
will give intelligent people an idea ol
what can be done in Los Angeles by i'll
.dustrious people. The old cooperative
nursery, down in the Vernon district,
now known as the Spencer place, orig.
inally consisted of seventy acres of or
anges and thirty acres planted to vine
yard. The latter was attacked by the
vine pest. and SO last February it was
decided to lease the thirty acres to
Chinamen, who grnbbed up the vines
and had potatoes planted by the middle
of March. Since then these people have
raised two crops of potatoes and one
crop of beans. All this has been done
in ten months and half, and new
crop is maturing. Surely there is nc
excuse for Incidence in a country like
this!

ANOTHER MYTH DISCOVERED.
Rouget de l'Isle Did Not Write the
Music of the "Marseiilaise."

Yet another tradition disproved and q
graceful legend upset and discredited.
Every one knows who wrote the music
of the "Mareeillaise, and how Rouget
de pIsle, lying in prison in Paris, heard
the troops marching from the south
sing the famous war song which he had
composed to cheer the conscripts at
Strasburg. The troops were coming
from Marseilles; Rouget de pIsle's
hvmn was henceforth called the
"Marseillaise," and in 1880 it's
composer was pensioned by lonis Phil
lippe. Well, Rouget did not write the
music at ALL There lived at St. Omer,
in the department of Calais,Sa modest
old chapelmaster, who had controlled
the music of the cathedral and believed
himself to be composer. He wrote
hymns and anthems and pieces during
the years of his Office, which began in
1875 and ended in l7S7. He even wrote
an oratorio, taking the choruses from
Racine's Esther for his libretto, and
calling his magnum opus by that name.
When he retired from his peaceful
office. two years before the taking of the
Bastile, he drew up an inventory Of all
his works and deposited it and his man
uscripts in the archives Of the town.
There they have remained, cared for,
certainly, as the old organist would have
wished, but also wholly undisturbed.
In the introduction to the oratorio was
that very hymn to which, two wears
after the choir masters retirement,
Rouget de PIsle set his famous words.
The manuscript has lately been
brought forth from obscurity and the
air discovered in the composers auto
graph. There is even something
stranger. The battle hymn, as Rouget
wrote it, had certain forid passages
which he judged in accord with martial
music. Subsequent arrangements by
more skilled composers have reduced or
omitted these, and in so doing have left
the composition exactly as it appears in
the old chapelmaster's autograph score.

Axs WE zUElcIPALLY lHnAcuLArEs

One Of the amusing developments of
our later days is that our esteemed con-
temporary, the Times. has no particular
howl about gamblers and other people
who correspond, in our later day par
lance, with those who, in the time of
Jesus Christ, were known as publicans.
Not now for 10 these many days has o
cacophonous note emerged from the
sanctum onvthe corner Of Broadway and
First street anent the backsliding of the
police force in failing to haul in some
body or other, for some dereliction or
other. If it had been the HERALD that
had been thus quiescent our lack OF
-tongued resonance would have
been correctly ascribed to the tradition
al good nature that prevails in this Office
on all but special occasions, as in IN. re
Ling, for instance. Those who are not
acquainted with the special and not al
ways charming idiosyncrscies Of our
esteemed contemporary, would probably
conclude from its placid demeanor since
the Republican party came into power
that a great and signal refor-
nation had been worked in the
genus homo as exemplified in Los An
geles, and that the substitution of a
Republican for Democratic chief OF
police was responsible for the whole
matter. OF course there is no gambling
now. Perish. the Thought! Is not Mr..
Thomas Lewis, stockholder of the
Times, member of the police board
Is not that fact itself enough to silence
comment?
And yet, we are ashamed to say that
there are people in Los Angeles, and
who assume to know, who say that there
are more skin gambling games running
in this CITY today than when the Times
was splitting its lungs about the un-
licensed license of that fraternity dur
ing the regime OF Tom Cuddy. For any
thing that one can hear to the contrary
in the columns Cf the Times just now,
Los Angeles would appear to have been
washed whittier than hyssop.
OF course, nobody would be naughty
enough to gamble in Los Angeles today
The ''white wings" chief of police ad-
ministration of Chief Glass, with the
vigilant supervision of the Times and
Tom Lewis, forbids the entertaining OF
such proposition for moment.
We really cannot resist the conviction
that we are becoming good, with big,
big G. Anything like moral delinquency
has disappeared from our municipal
bailiwick. The HERALD is half afraid
that we are too good for "keeps," and
that some revelations Of moral rotten
ness are imminent. The Times, having
secured the promotion of its own special
censor, seems to have concluded, like
Homer, that its business is to nod. All
the same, we have reliable information
that more gambling is going on in Los
Angeles today than ever prevailed dur
ing the time when our contemporaries
howlings were loudest, under Cuddy's
control of the police force.
