requested to notify Mrs. Flint. the presi-
dent, at The Heathman, until Friday,
and at the Pavilion after Friday morn

Los Angeles herald., 1891-04-05

The presence here at this time of Mr..
R. G. Kerens and Hon. Jefferson Chand-
Ter, of st. Louis, is note of encourage
ment of no ordinary significance. They
are the principal men in the Terminal
road project, of which Mr.. T. 5. Burnett
is the able local manager. They come
to look over the field, taking stock of
what has been accomplished, and max
ing plans for further development of
their projects. They do not yet feel in
position to disclose just what their plans
are; but that they are not of any small
type, is manifest by what has already
been done. In the purchase of Rattle
snake island, of the Cross system of
roads, and in the fine levee
built along the river on the east side, it
is safe to say that much more than a
round million dollars has been expend-
ed. Such is not the way small enter
prises are begun, and these gentlemen
are not of the class that make mistakes.
They have grown grey in this business,
and they have at each step added to
their wealth, not dropped it in frus-
trated schemes that never earned usu-
fruct on the investment. This million
already invested is bad money until it
has been followed up by many millions
to make it all gbod.

MODERN business methods have be-
come very complicated and iar-reaching
in their influence. But in all these
labyrinths of dealings the people are not
the benefciaries of any movement. On
the contrary, the further we 60 the more
the hard millstones grind the life out OF
the average man. In spite of our excel
lent institutions it must be said that the
struggle for life becomes more intense.
The infamous Mckinley bill made at
least one effort to Tighten the burden
of taxation that bears so heavily on the
necks of the people. The Republican
states produce no sugar other than that
made from beets, so the tax was removed
from imported sugar, and bounty Of
fered for that made at home.
The duty amounted to two cents a
pound for the crude article. OF, two and
a fraction cents for refined. The con-
sumner was to get the benefit of this, or
he was to buy his sugar at least two
cents cheaper than before. That was
the promise, but not the performance.
The only reductions made run at from
half cent to cent on the higher
grades, while an actual increase of price
has been put on the lower grades. The
monopolies pocket all the benefit, and
the people may go where the famous
McGinty went, or further, for that
matter.

THE three main rivers, whose courses
lie through the counties of Los Angeles,
San Bernardino and Orange, are subject
to overflow in the great floods that come
from the vast mountain watersheds in
the rainy season. In the past seven
years four large floods have been en-.
countered in these rivers, and much
damage has resulted to property on the
line of these turbulent streams. The
necessity of taking some action to con-
fine the rivers to the channels has been
too apparent for years; and the legis!a-
ture, at its last session, passed an
act by which the property ex-
posed to the rivers may be as

CHICAGO is certainly going through a
very serious and very sad experience in
the ravages the fatal grippe is making
among her people. When it comes to
1000 deaths week, or nearly $50 day,
the wall must be like that of Egypt
when the first born in every house was
smitten by the cold hand of the angel
of death. May the spring soon come
there with sunny rays and dispel these
microbes that mark their victims 80
surely for their prey.

sessed for its own protection. The
property owners who have suffered in
the past are wide awake to the neces-
stiles of the case, and have gone
promptly to work to form the territory
into proper districts in order to do this
work. In this county the lands along
the Los Angeles and San Gabriel rivers
have been divided into three districts,
each of which will take steps looking to
confning the floods in the channels of
these rivers.

There were several new arrivals at the
county Jail. Mrs. Theodosia Sepulveda,
aged 40, was brought in for insanity, on
the complaint of Mrs. Smith, Of 750

About Writing Ones Name.

People who sign their letters with
wild flourishes, or initials only, and give
no address, offer one of the worst Of
compliments to their correspondent by
realistically assuming that their hand
writing must be Of such familiar impor-
lance to him. or that they and their
affairs are so present TO his mind that
further Identification is unnecessary.
Having their signature cut from the end
of letter, and the address from its
heading pasted on the envelope which
incloses a reply, is a bad compliment
which many persons bring upon them
selves by an objectionable iliegibility.
1t is singular fact the accidental mis-
spelling or mispronunciation of ones
name generally constitutes greater
affront and is provocative Of more an
noyance than a studied insult.-Al the
