THE RAILROADS.
SUNDAY OBSERVED ON THE SANTA
ANA AND NEWPORT ROAD.
A Railway President With Conscientious
Objections to Sunday Trains-News
Notes About Railway Matters.

President McFadden. OF the Santa
Ana and Newport road, recently opened
for passenger traffic, refuses cooperate
his line on Sundays. This action is
causing much adverse remark among
those Orange county people who want
to take run to the sea coast on Sunday.
Mr.. McFadden argues that there is no
necessity for people to travel to Newport
on Sunday and his conscience will not
otherwise permit him to run the trains.
The Orange County Herald says:
"The management is to be congratu-
lated and honored for the noble Chris
tian EXAMPLE they have set in obedi-
ence to the divine command, 'Remem-
ber the Sabbath day to keep it holy"
NOTES.
Little was talked of in railroad freight
circles yesterday, says Tuesdays San
Francisco Chronicle, except the news
that Vice-President Mellin had ap-
pointed G.. w. Luce general freight
agent of the Union Pacific in this state
to take the place of H. A. Johnson,
resigned. Mr.. Luce is the general freight
agent of the Texas and Pacific in this
city, and it is stated that there will be q
consolidation of the two offices. Mr..
Johnson's resignation is the result of a
quarrel between the Adams and Gould
interests in the Union Pacific. Mr..
Luce was formerly in the employ of the
Southern Pacific company in this city.
Vice-President Stanford, of the South
ern Pacific, has gone to Vina.
Creed Raymond, general solicitor of
the Southern Pacific, is expected in San
Francisco from Europe today.

fornia roads treasurer's Office is out
again, after long sickness.
James Campbell, president of the
Santa Monica wharf and Terminal rail-
road company, is seriously i'll at his
home at Nadeau park.

Herman Oelrichs, who started from
San Francisco for the east in the special
car Grasmere, on Saturday, will make
the trip to New York in about as fast
time as Baron Won Schroeder did, as he
has made special arrangements with

along.

On HIS way to the Vermont centennial
Mr.. Harrison was received at Albany by
Governor Hill and Mayor Manning in a
very warm and courteous manner. In
return, the president inflicted speech
upon the people assembled, and pumped
into them column or so of the stock
argument OF the gold-bugs against free
silver coinage. Not to say anything OF
the bad taste of political speech on
such an occasion, Harrison might have
shown decent reserve of his political
views in reception given him by the
governor OF New York, who is also in
the presidential field for the nomination
of his party.

The return OF the czarowitz to Mos
COW was signalized by services of thanks
giving in all the churches for the young
mans escape from a.Japanese assas-
sin." This is really carrying the thin g
too far, to thank the Lord for the czaro-
Wits escape from chastisement by a
Japanese policeman for having grossly
outraged the religious customs of the
country he was travelling in. We opine
that could the obscure policeman be
heard from, the czarowitz would more
deserve the name of 'hoodlum' than
he that of assassin.

COLONEL MCCLURE has kept up, in the
Philadelphia Times, the controversy as
to Lincoln's choice for the vice-presi-
dency in 1864. He has made his point
to the satisfaction of most people, and
has been assisted by General Benjamin
F. Butler, General Dan Sickles, George
Jones, Major Ben G. Truman, and
many others. With most people Colonel
McClure's own assertion was sufficient
to establish the point, as it was con-
firmed by the logic of the situation.
When he adds the concurrent opinion
of Hamlin himself that would seem to
settle the matter.

A SAN FRANCISCAN has invented a gas
light attachment by which the gas is cut
off automatically when blown out, so
that the accidents SO often resulting to
our country cousins when they visit the
cities will be impossible in hotels pro-
vlded with these life-savers. A large
percentage of these accidents, however,
are not ascribable to the ignorance OF
hotel guests, but to the parsimony OF
landlords, who are too mean to keep
their gas fixtures in proper repair.

THERE is great deal of speculation. of

THERE is great deal of speculation. of
late, in the press of California as to the
practicability of growing tobacco and
cotton in California. Both have been
shown to be feasible. Good specimens
Of both were exhibited at the New Or
leans exposition. Sixteen years ago ex-
cellent cigars manufactured al Gilroy
from tobacco grown near that place were
sold in Los Angeles, and were much ap-
preciated here. Haggin & Carr have
raised fine staples of cotton in.Kern
county. Doubtless the reason why these
branches of production were allowed to
Ianguish was because they did not pay.
They are both cheap labor staples, and
cheap labor in California is a. scarce as
hens teeth.

Angelefios who have grown eloquent
over the conquests of horses raised In
this county win regret to learn that one
of the finest breeding establishments in
America is shortly to be broken up. The
entire thoroughbred department is to be
sold under the hammer. The stock is
not excelled by any other breeding farm
in this country. 1t contains the, best
blood OF England, Australia and Ameri-
ca. At the head of the stud are two
young sires with the grandest and most
fashionable blood coursing through their
veins. Argyle is the sensational young
sire of America. At six years old he
was the sire of two such crack perform
ers as Fairy and Rinfax. Argyle is by
Monday grandson OF the immortal Lex
ington. St. Carlo is grand young stall
lion, being by the illustrious st. Blaize.
He is chestnut 4-year-old. AS a 2-year-
old he distinguished himself by winning
two big stakes. The importation Of
such fashionably- bred stallion, with.
such opportunities as he would have
gotten at Rosemeade, would have re-
aloa being bred in this country.
The material at the farm to be broken
up was selected by some OF the best judges
in America. Money and brains were,
used in getting together the Rosemeade-
stud and now all is to be lost to this
county. The score OF Australian brood
mares imported to the country by Mr..
Rose are to be sold in other states.
These mares were selected by Captain
Merry, and contain the best blood of the
English and Australian thoroughbred.
There are thirty other brood mares at
Rosemeade, containing the best blood of
England and America.
II am sorry to have to announce that
must sell all my thoroughbred stud,"
said Mr.. Rose to HERALD representa-
tive yesterday, soon after his arrival
from New York city. This has been
an unfortunate year for me-" said the
master of Rosemeade.
"Your horses did frst-cass," inter-
rupted the reporter. .Er-t
THAT is true, but am broke, never
theless," replied Mr.. Rose, a smile
spreading over his face. II regret that
am obliged TO sell out. I have the
greatest faith in this county. 1t is the
best county in the world to raise
blooded stock, but l have now not the
means to carry on such large thor
oughbred establishment. should like
to sell out to syndicate who would
keep the stock in the county. 1 would
put 100000 into such syndicatei
order to keep the thoroughbreds in this
county"
1t is to be hoped that syndicate will
be formed. While there would be no
income for years, still after that money
could be made by selling the yearlings
every year, and it would be big thing
to keep this stock in this county. In
the event of no arrangement being
made in the near future, it is on the
tapis to sell the brood mares and stall
lions at public auction in Lexington
next November, and the yearling and
sucklings early in the spring. Yester-
day carload of horses arrived at Rose
meade from the east. This carload con-
tanned the youngsters recently pur-
chased by Mr.. Rose, ano st. Carlo, the
celebrated young stallion. 1t is pity
that the stud should be broken up just
as it has been completed after eighteen
months labor, but Mr.. Rose is reluct-
antly obliged to sell, as he needs the
mOney. ..-.

FARMERS. DAY.

Some days ago the kilograms stated
that the farmers would this year make
thousand million more dollars than
for any past year in their history. This
statement was not founded on the spec
ulative movements of the last few days,
which were based on the Russian ukase
forbidding the export of rye, and the
lively excitement of the Berlin grain
exchange, for these ebullitions had not
been recorded. The European grain
crops were known to be short. Russia,
usually large exporter, will this year
be a great importer of grain. France
will need 100000 bushels of wheat.
England will require an unprecedented
amount, as the crop of India is short,
and the English crops, good or bad, cut
very small figure in the situation.
Yesterday Statistician Dodd, of the de-
partment of agriculture. gave some of
the figures upon which an estimate of a
thousand million dollars of increased
profits to the American farmer are
founded. He says that the crop Of
wheat ought not to fall below 525, ,000,-
600 bushels. This means that we
shall have at least 250, 100000 bushels
of that cereal for export, and every
bushel of it will be needed by the people
of Europe. This year the corn crop of
the United States will reach the unpre-
cedented total of two thousand million
bushels Just think of that for a mo-
ment! The'rye and barley crops, also.
are greater than was ever known before.
In fact, Dame Nature has poured her
cornucopia over the new world, and left
the old to take care OF itself. Here we
have the fecundfty of youth, and its ire
pressible, abounding vitality, and there
the worn out soil and vexed seasons de-
mand rest.
No one should be deceived by any re-
actions which may be reported in the
centers of grain speculation. This Is
Americas year. There will be long and
labored explanations of the Russian
czar's ukase. Bear articles without
number will be written to show that
grain ought to be cheaper. Spectators
will over-reach themselves and individ.
uals will be wrecked, but nothing is
more certain than that America
will have to feed Europe this year.
Nothing can refine this away. While
prices may sag for a while, under skill
full manipulation, they are bound to
rule high. Mackey and Flood could
not force UP the price of wheat and
keep it up. The only thing that can dc
that is failure of the European and
East Indian crops. Such conjuncture
is more potent than twenty Mackeys
and Floods. The starving millions must
be fed, and the boarded coin of Europe
must be utilized to pay for American
grain with which to do it.
The lot of the American farmer will
this year be indeed fortunate one, aLt
we are glad of it.. This country has fol
years been MIXED for the benefit o
Europe, and the farmer has been obliged
to take back seat. He can now come
forward and look with jocund face
around board which sees him th
most contented figure sitting thereat
One thousand million dollars-whicl
will doubtless be swollen to billiol
and half before the game ia called
is enough to make him show up, lik'

LITTLE INTERVIEWS.
What Various People Say on Variety
of Matters.


Rev. John A. Billingsley-Why don't
your paper, or some other, take up this
matter OF the dog-catchers. had the
curiosity to follow one OF them the other
day, and saw him catch five dogs. -Four
of them he had no possible right to
capture, and the fifth was very doubt
full. He caught two dogs in enclosed
front yards, one on the front porch of a
house, and a fourth on doorstep. 1t is
getting pretty bad, think, when peo-
pie to keep pet dog must chain it up
or compel it to wear collar, which
must be uncomfortable these hot days.
w. H. Keese-I think that we hill
residents have a great deal to thank
the HERALD for. For my part, think
it was the earnest championship of the
interests of us of the hill, which se-
cured for US decent water supply,
more than anything that has been done
looking toward that end by any one else.
At any rate, the fearless conduct of the
HERALD was source of satisfaction to
us at the time. and we feel duly CRATE
full
John @. Woodward-The first thing
that inspired in me desire to come to
Los Angeles was the perusal of copy
of the ANNUAL HERALD. 1t was winter
time and the place was Indianapolis. l
remember sitting in my room by roar
ing fire, with the snow drifted up to the
windows, reading list of Southern
California fruits and their time of ripan-
ing. A friend would come in OCCASION
ally, and would read of skies of ceru-
lean hue, unclouded for nine months in
the year, strawberries ripe at Christ
mas, and all sorts OF things about the
mild winters which I do not now re-
member. Then my friend and would
look at each other and sigh, and think
how nice it would be if we were there
instead of in Indiana. We are both of
us here now, and both of US take the
HERALD, out of kindly feeling for that
old copy of the annual.
7. H. Wilkins-It seems rather.
strange thing that when we have dis
tinguished visitor to Southern Califor-
showing him scenes distinctively South
Southern California products, we usu-
speeches are about the same kind to
set him down to banquet where the
only Southern California products on
the tables are the wines. This may be
right, and don't know that any of the
visitors have kicked at all, but it seems
to me we ought to be able to get up
something more new, and original
in the way of entertainments.
L. S. Clark-The first that / knew
about the chamber of commerce was
told me by mail carrier. had an idea
that mail carriers were sort of walking
directory, so when / wanted to find
certain business man to whom l had let
ters OF introduction, caught the car
rier and asked him if he knew where he
could be found. He said that he was
not sure, but produced a printed list and
consulted it. On my asking him about
the list he handed it to me and ex-
planned that the chamber of commerce
issued such lists OF membership month
ly, and that as they contained the names
OF the principal business men and were
constantly altered to make them cor
rect, the letter carriers mostly kept
them as a convenient directory. NV
next visit was to the chamber of COM
merce rooms.
