SPEAKING of a well-known California
orange, the Grocery World, a trade jour-
nal OF Philadelphia, recently said: "The
Washington navel orange is grown with
any perfection only in Southern Cali
fornia. 1t is remarkable and liked so
well because of its rich, delicious favor,
it's high, beautiful golden color, and it's
delicate texture, all the coarse qualities
being concentrated at one end of the
orange, thereby forming protuberance
from which the fruit derives its name.
A true Washington navel orange is very
juicy and bleeds at every vein when cut,
and abounds in medicinal properties.
California is undoubtedly the home for
this species of orange, as the product
from Florida is not entirely seedless,
while in eating a California navel or
ange one is always agreeably surprised
to find them wholly seedless."

multitude will proceed to give
that party a. dressing at the
polls. The sagacious David Ben
nett Hill sees the signs of the times,
and interprets them Alright. He will
have nothing to do with free trade or
single tax heretics; but clings to the
old Jeffersonian formula of tariff for
revenue, so levied as to give all possible
legitimate protection to American in
dustries, and thereby to American la
Dor. The tariff affects business, most
delicate and sensitive affair. Handle it
with gloves, and make haste elowly in
radical changes therein, or the people
will make great haste in their eagerness
to handle without gloves the party that
checks the onward wheels of progress.
Verbum sap, sat. That is, if there is not
too much sap.

THE noble red man is a great hero and
a model OF all physical, if not of all
moral perfection, in Cooper's novels, and
Longfellow's Hiawatha. In real life Lo
is svery low. He is a lazy, shiftess, thrift
less, filthy, sneaking, thieving, cowardly
and treachcrous being, whose lack OF
moral sense would shame cur dog, and
cause wolf to feel shame that any liv-
ing thing should be so abhorrent. The
government has been trying to enlist
the Indian as soldier, but he will not
go into the infantry because he
is too lazy to walk; and he
will not go into the cavalry unless
he is allowed to take his squaws
along. He wants his squaws, who are
his slaves, that they may feed and clean
his horses and burnish his arms. 1t is
further reported that the Indian, as a
rule, is physically deficient, according
to the standard of the United States
army. What fall is here from that
high pedestal on which the novelist and
poet placed the children of the forest !!
And the notion of the novelist and poet
is the notion of the eastern people,
while the report of the army officers is
the bold and naked truth.

ARE WE A PROGRESSIVE COMMUNITY

Los Angeles lays claim, sometimes
with not too much bashfulness, to be
very progressive and enterprising city.
And to tell the truth, without fear OF
being thought conceited, we have some
right to lay claim to this distinction, and
to lay the flattering unction to our soul,
and to lay ton little thick. People who
have seen every city of50, 600 population
and upwards on the North American
continent, and nearly all such cities in
Europe, say with much emphasis that
we have the best built, best streeted,
best lighted and best severed city of
them all. We have the best railroad
service and the best street car service,
the best theatrical attractions, the great
est number of banks, with more capital,
more churches of greater cost, and more
schools, better built, than any OF these
cities.
And yet in other respects we are woe
fully behind the times. And there
seems to be line of demarcation we'll
defined, and very suggestive. In all
that is done by private enterprise we
excel. In all that depends on the hon.
esty, vigor or intelligence of our public
officials we are woefully deficient. That
is somewhat alarming state of affairs
but it seems to be the fact. Let us
take one line of public improvement.
While our streets are generally so good,
because they are built by direct tax
on the aligning property, which is not
easily diverted to the benefit of
others, our roads in all direc-
tions are simply execrable, be-
cause these are made and repaired out
OF road funds, which usually seem to be
spent in the most recklessly stupid way,
if not stolen out and out. 1t seems abb
solutely discouraging to one who has
lived here twenty years, to realize to
this day there is not good road to the
sea at the nearest attractive point. Not
a good road to Santa Monica, sixteen
miles from the city,in this year of grace
Here is drive to match which, for
scenic beauty or for invigorating air,
you might search the terraqueous globe
and fail, and yet there is no good road
between the two points. Snow
capped mountain, sparkling ocean,
sea-girt isle, green plains, long vistas
of orchard rows, Towering meadow, and
waving grain fields, rose embowered cot
tage and leafy shaded farm house, all
combine to form picture matchless,
even where Greece and her old poetic
mountains inspiration breathe around.
or where the perpetual roses bloom
around Postum since the days when
Alcibiades roamed beneath their shade.
Yet there is no road fit to drive over in
this sixteen mile stretch of loveliness.
The air fans ones cheek like softest
velvet, and fills the lungs with pure
ozone off the Pacific waves. But there
is no road fit to drive on.
For the thousandth time and
one, Dame Rumor is wagging
her usually unveracious tongue to the
effect that such road as will delight
the tourist is about to be constructed.
Let us hope that the mendacious old
Sibyl is at last telling the truth.

FLOWER FESTIVAL.
Seventh Season and the Authors Car
nival.

Seventh Season and the Authors Car
nival.
With the return of the flower season
flower festival, which has been written
and talked about all over the continent.
This great flower show has been given
year after year by the ladies of the
Flower Festival society, which has
taken it's name from the flower display,
and which has for its object the found
ing and support of young wOman's
home. The history OF this home is too
we'll known to the readers of the HER
AID to need recounting at this time.
To give variety to the citizens who
have so generously patronized the
flower festival from its Inauguration,
the board of managers of this society
has this year combined with the flower
festival an authors carnival, in connec-
ton with which brilliant tableaux will
be produced at every performance, in
which many of the familiar characters
from Shakespeare, Dickens, Tennyson,
Bret Harte, Mother Goose, DeFoe and
other authors will be recognized. AS
usual, there is work of almost every
kind for ready hands and willing hearts.
There NAV be ladies who could cut
flowers, vines, etc., at home, or make
cakes, while others may be able to
work at the pavilion in trimming and
other kinds of work; still others may
have buggies and horses which they
could use in the service, while others
may be able only to assist by their
presence at the entertainments. Let
all come to the front cheerfully and
promptly to the pavilion and give their
sympathy and cooperation. Those
who cannot be at the pavilion and can
work at home in the ways suggested
will be acknowledged by the society if
they will address to Mrs. A. L. Flint,
the president, at the pavilion.
Seventh Annual Flower Festival and
Authors Carnival
Will open Monday, April 9Th. The
managers will take possession of the Pa
vilion on Friday of this week. Help is
solicited as usual in preparing the deco
rations for the booths. All helpers are
urged to be at the Pavilion early Friday
morning, provided with aprons, ham,
mers and scissors.
Ivy, palm leaves, cypress, banana
leaves, pepper leaves, ETC., will be needed
at the Pavilion very early FRIDAY and on
successive days of the festival. These
can be left near the Olive-street door of
the Pavilion as early as Thursday after
noon.
The festival and carnival open on
Monday evening with a series of bril-
liant tableaux. 1t is very important
that cut flowers should be brought for
the flower booths early on Monday
morning. If the donors cannot send
their flowers to the Pavilion they are
requested to notify Mrs. Flint, the presi-
dent, at The Heathman, until Friday,
and at the Pavilion after Friday morn
ing, where to send for them. The man
ayers desire all donors of flowers and
other decorating material, also of cake,
lemons, ETC., to send their names with
the donations, so that the society may
acknowledge the same through the
press.

There is a wonderous differ
ence in the meaning which diff
ferent men ascribe to the words
vein, lode and ledge. Scientif-
ically speaking they are syno-
nymous terms. Some miners
speak of the vein only as their
pay streak. Others speak OF
it as the proper name for Gre
vice, rock. streak or indication
of any kind which a miner
would follow with the expecta-
ton of finding ore. Custom
varies in different regions.
The old geological idea of a
vein is a hssure in the earth s
crust, which was filled by a de-
posit from fumes, or from boil
ing waters. Previous to the
adoption OF these theories the
prevailing one was that the
assure was filled with melted
rock injected from the interior
of the earth. While modern
authorities are inclined to re-
ject the three theories mention
ed, the oldidea of a vein being
the filling Of a hssure remains.
This necessitates the existence
of two we'll defined wall rocks,
the matter between them con-
stituting the vein. This is
the commonly accepted mean
ing of the word, and for ordl-
nary purposes it would be well

The census agents were able
to discover only 81 boys under
10 years of age in the gold and
silver mines of the United
States, and it goes without
saying that they did not find
any women there. In some of
the highly civilized European
countries both women and chill
dren are to be found at work
underground. Most of our
States prohibit by law the EN-
ployment of boys under IS in
mines. There are perhaps
some sturdy lads of this age
able to do mans work, but if
hoys.are employed about mine
it should be in light work. as
for example carrying drills, as
they do in some eastern copper
and iron mines. Legislative
restriction on this point may
not be needed in the West,
but it is certainly a good thing
in some States that might be
mentioned; for example, those
where convict labor and con
tract foreign importations Of
the least desirable sort have
created SO much trouble.

All the good mines do not
declare dividends so that the
public can know the profit they
pay. In fact the largest profit
payer in the State, and many
which rank among the best, do
not make their business public.
1t is known the Aspen has paid
as high as $2oo, 900 per month
to its owners. The Sheridan
and Mendoza has paid III per
cent of its capitalization in div
idends, besides spending over
100000 in permanent i'm
provements, and has millions
of dollars yet in sight. The
Virgenius has been alarge profit
payer for years, as well as the
North Star on Solomon, and
rumor places profits anywhere
from $4,000 to 100000 per
year. The even-Thirty at
Georgetown paid over hun
dred thousand year for years,
and the Lamartine paid$365,-
ooo in about a year. All these
properties are yet paying large
ly and constantly, and dozens
of others could be mentioned
which pay largely, though per
haps not SO much as these.
1t is great mistake to suppose
that the public companies
which declare dividends tell
the profit made in mining.
They 60 not tell one half of it.
