the court house bonds remaining unsold,
which amount to $l20,000.

science in Bread Makine.

At the recent annual meeting of the
American Chemical society, held in
Washington, D. c., the question of the
value of carbonate of ammonia as a
leavening agent in bread, or aa used in
baking powders came up for discussion,
in which Prof. Barker, of the University
of Pennsylvania, and president of the
society; DR.. Richardson, late of the
United States department of agriculture
in Washington; DIR. VIM. McMurtrie, late
professor OF chemistry in the University
of Illinois; DR.. e. II. Barley, late
chemist of Brooklyn, n. Y, board OF
health, and professor of chemistry of
the Long Island college, and others took
part.
The consensus OF opinion was over
whelming in favor of the employment
of ammonia. 1t was stated as q fact
that ammonia rendered the gluten of
the flour more soluble than the original
gluten, and that the bread in which this
action was produced by carbonate of
ammonia must be more digestible and
hence more healthful, and because of
the extreme volatility of carbonate OF
ammonia, and it's complete expulsion
from the bread in the process of baking,
it is one of the most useful, most health
full and most valuable leavening agents
known.
These conclusions are borne out by
the very elaborate and exhaustive ex-
periments made by Prof. J. w. Mallet,
OF the University of Virginia, which
show conclusively that bread made with
a baking powder in which one per cent
Of carbonate of ammonia is used, in con-
nection with cream OF tartar and soda,
is not only OF uniformly better color and
texture, but product more wholesome,
because the ammonia serves to neu-
tralize any organic or Tactic acids present
in the -four.
Los Angeles herald., 1891-09-17

Pure is one thing; whole
some, another. Pure arsenic
is not wholesome. Pure
ammonia, pure white clay,
or pure alum cannot make
a wholesome baking powder,
even if it is called absolutely
pure
Every housekeeper knows
that pure cream of tartar,
pure soda, pure -four, are
wholesome. These three in
gradients, and these three
only, are used in Cleveland's
Baking Powder. Cleveland's
is pure AND wholesome; it
leavens most, and leavens
best, but its special excel
lence is that it is perfectly
wholesome.

PERHAPS the happiest thing that has
Oecurr ed in Paris in long time was the
successful presentation last night OF
Iohengrin in the Grand opera house.
Nothing could be more absurd than to
visit upon work of genius the anger OF
a mob, and the fact that the authorities
were able to control the sans culIottes
was splendid augury of the good sense
of the French people. La Belle France
has given many evidences, in the last
twenty-one years, of containment and
good sense, and in no crisis has she
shown more judgment than yesterday.
The singing of the Marsellaise was all
very well, and the police were obliged
10 do some clubbing, but an apprecia-
tive audience gave to the work of the
great composer that intelligent recogni-
tion which is above the clangors of an
angry multitude. Score one for the
French republic!
Los Angeles herald., 1891-09-17

THE HERALD regrets very much that
Mr.. J. de Barth Shorb has found It ex-
pedient to speak of Director-General
Davis and the national board Of control
in the splenetic manner which charac-
terizes an interview with him published
in the Times of yesterday. He describes
them as "rotten to the core" This is
certainly very Incorporate way of re-
ferring to gentlemen who stand very
we'll in the estimation of their country
men, as matters go. We should be very
sorry to accept his estimate of these
officials, and if we believed the allega-
tions were true we should take very little
interest in the exposition. We have no
hesitation in saying that we do not be-
heve the premises justify any such
sweeping charges, and we beg to remind
the gentlemen assailed that they repre-
sent simply the personal opinions of Mr..
Shorb. We should be 10th to have it
supposed that Southern California enter
tanned any such extreme opinions, as
that would naturally go to prejudice the
management of the worlds fair against
this section. AS to Director General
Davis, candor compels us to say that we
think he has exceeded ordinary
limits in his good nature to Cali
fornia. He first nominated Maxwell
for head of the horticultural bureau.
On the rejection of that gentleman he
nominated Chapman. He followed
Chipman's rejection by nominating
Forsythe-still a Californian. The
third trial is said to be the charm, and
no one will be surprised that he stopped
there. The fact that Mr.. Shorb thinks
that he would have been confirmed by
the local board if General Davis had
nominated a fourth Californian in his
own person by no means justi6es such
extreme bitterness in characterizing the
management of the Columbian exposi-
ton. If Mr.. Shorb had been nomi-
mated as head of the horticultural
bureau, and had been confirmed by the
local board, would he have INDUCED in
such diatribe? Well, hardly. The
whole episode is most unfortunate, and
the people Of California win form their

In everything but in the silver plank
the platform of the New York Democ-
-.lacy will meet the acclaim oil Democrats
throughout the whole United States.
In arraigning the Republican party fer
disfranchising 10000 voters in South
ern New York, which comprises New
York Gfty and Brooklyn and other Dem
Ocratic strongholds, great injustice,
which was begun by Johnny Davenport
and his bureau, and consummated by
Porter and his census bureau, a
wrong of long standing was re-
buked. In pillorying the Billion
Dollar Congress and emphasizing
the change from Democratic surplus
to Repu blican deficit, keynote of
great and resounding significance was
struck. The sumptuary law plank is
one which will find vibrations through
out the whole United States. The New
York Democracy seek to remove from
the American people the straight jacket
which Republican intolerance has forced
on men whose proudest boast is that
they at least desire to be freemen. The
platform is a fine expression of enlight-
ened and Democratic aspirations.

Mr.. DAN FREEMAN, chairman of the
executive committee of the Southern
California exhibit at Chicago, reports to
that body that, during the past year,
225, 600 people have visited the rooms in
the Rialto building, that 100000 pieces
of reading matter have been distrib-
nted and that 5000 letters of inquiry
have been answered. In the person of
Major Ben G. Truman the Southern
counties have had representative of
exceptional efficiency and very extended
acquaintance. In addition to being re-
markably well acquainted with the pro-
sincts, topography and possibilities of
Southern California, Major Truman is a
journalist of national reputation, man
Of affairs and master of the agreeable
art OF telling what he knows. Mr.. Free
man expresses the hope that enough
voluntary subscriptions will be made to
avoid the necessity for soliciting public
aid for the maintenance of the exhibit.
We must be excused for again recurring
to the great advisability of continuing
Major Truman in his present junction.

edge of the first French Inter
national exposition of 1867, and he was

The coroner's jury, which was con-
vened at Bakersfield yesterday, has
brought in verdict in the case of the
death of Col. William Harney, in the
recent Tehachepi accident, to the effect
that the train service was defective.
This appears to be the case both in the
case of fatal casualties and train robbers.
1t would be an excellent idea to supply
trains with few Winchester rifles and
guards and some extra brakemen. The
first expense of both is large, but they
tend to prevent disastrous pecuniary
-after-claps. 1t would pay in the end.

Earthquake in oregon.

PORTLAND, Ore, Sept 16.--At 40 this
evening two shocks OF earthquake, last
ing about ten seconds, followed one
another in quick succession. The first
shock caused buildings to shake quite
perceptibly. The vibrations were from
east to west.
SALEM, Ore, Sept. 16.-This evening
at S:4O an earthquake shock was felt
here quite distinctly. There was one
abrupt shock OF ten seconds duration,
followed by gentle undulations, which
exhausted themselves in about four Sec
onds. In large brick buildings and all
large structures the shock was plainly
felt.

Los ANGELES county is now without
board of horticultural commissioners.
Alack-a-dayl Formerly she had three.
In place of this trio she appointed Mr..
w E. Ward. And now that gentleman
has resigned. He probably based his
action ON some analogy to Bulwer's
happy query in Richelieu, "What
edition OF the court journal has made
yo1 plural?" Mr.. Ward has declined
to pluralize himself. Hence these
steers, and wild attempt to lasso some
other official unfortunate. If three men
find it difficult to face an infuriated
horticultural crowd what can be ex-
pected of one but resignation, uncondi-
tional and instanter?

THE LINES DRAWN IN NEW YORK.

The Democratic convention wound up
in New York yesterday in a very har-
monious and happy style. The only
element of discord at any stage of the
was the attempt of the
county Democracy to obtain representa-
tion from the city and county of New
York equally with Tammany. AS the
county Democracy, so called, had joined
in with the Republicans to beat the
Democratic ticket at the last election, it
was very properly ignored. There
ought to be at least a brief period of re-
pentance before such a grave political
offense could be condoned. Roswell P.
Flower was nominated for governor, and
Speaker Sheehan, of the assembly, was
nominated for acknowledgement. Mr..
Flower has been q banker, and proved
himself to be an able and influential
member of the United States house Of
representatives. In addition to the
possession of sterling Jeffersonian prin-
ciples, he has an unusual amount Of
this worlds goods; and oul Repub-
lican friends, who nominated Vice
President Morton because of his
heavy contributing qualities, will
be very much shocked at this fact.
Mr.. Flowers wealth is the least of his
strong points. He is sagacious and
many-sided. man, and will be remem-
bered by the country at large principally
on account Of the gallant fight he made
in congress to secure the worlds fair for
New York. On the other hand, his op-
ponent, J. Sloat Fassett, is principally
notorious for having, at ''Me Too Tom
Platt's" instigation, defeated the pro-
ject of holding the Columbian exposi
ton in New York City. The voters of
New York will also bear this fact in mind.
Sheehan, the nominee for lieutenant
governor, is the gentleman who led the
fight against the Cleveland forces in
Erie county. Mr.. Cleveland's old home,
in which he triumphed most conspicu-
ously. This significant phase OF the
matter should not be overlooked.
To put the thing in nutshell, the
Democratic ticket in New York repre-
sents the sentiment in the Empire state
which believes in the star of Governor
David Bennett Hill. With the single
exception of the attitude OF the county
Democracy, the Democratic con-
vention was united and enthusi-
astic. The nomination. of Fassett for
governor has been a most insulting de-
fiance of the reform element of the Re-
publican party in the Empire state.
Fassett is the man WHOM Plat forced
into the collectorship of New York over
better man. He is as distinctively the
administration candidate for governor
as was Secretary of the Treasury Folger
under Arthur. That the Republicans
are restive under this federal dictation is
undoubted, and the Union League club
OF the city of New York heads the dis
sidents.
The lines are fairly drawn. If the
Democratic ticket wins there can then
be no question as to the ascendancy of
David Bennett Hill in his own state.
The nomination of Sheehan, if followed
by his election, will conclusively prove
that the Democracy of the Empire state
does not consider it wise to press the
claims of ex-President Cleveland upon
the attention Of the G ming National
Democratic convention, and would pre-
fer to try the chances with new leader,
with Governor Hill as the favorite of
his own state.

''The Terminal railroad company will
never get control of the Los Angeles and
Pacific" said one of the men who are
greatly interested in the latter road, yes
terday ''because the Southern Pacific
will never permit them to get into Santa
Monica that way"
People interested in railroad matters
have thought for long time that the
Terminal company had succeeded i'll
absorbing the long quiescent Los Angeles
and Pacific road, but there has been
lack OF proper corroboration of the dick
er. OF late there have been q number of
rumors current to the effect that the
Southern Pacific has been negotiating to
shut the Terminal off from reaching
Santa Monica, and this utteranee above
quoted would seem to lend credence to
such reports. The HERALD gives the
statement for what it Is worth, not hav-
ing been able to verify it, but it is by no
means an impossible or an improbable
situation. The passenger business to
Santa Monica is bonanza, heretofore a
monopoly of the Southern Pacific; they
will have to divide it soon with the Santa
Fe. but as half is better than a third,
they will probably draw the line at the
present arrangement.
TIE TERMINAL ROAD.
Mr.. w. NJ. Griffith, the chief contrac-
tor in the building of the Terminal road,
has arrived from St. Louis, and yester-
. day went to the front.
A HERALD reporter had an interview

he started for Clearwater.

to Long Beach very soon after the lst of
October, il all goes well," he said. 81
saw Mr.. Kerens at Saratoga just before

weeks now, and probably several Of his
associates will accompany him.
"When will he build to Salt Lake? I
am not authorized at all to say anything
about that proposition, nor do know
anything about it. l presume, how
ever, that if the people of Los Angeles
and San Bernardino want the Terminal
company to build there, it will be done,
providing those two counties come for
ward with sufficient inducement. 1t
takes two-thirds vote to issue bonds
for such purposes, does it not think
that is about all there is to the matter.
If the people are willing to help the pro-
ject, the road will be built, think"
