THE eastern racing season will open
this season on the 18th of May at Mon
mouth Park in Brooklyn. Californ ia
will be fully represented on all the
eastern events. 1t is pleasant thing
to know that Los Angeles county,
through that energetic Angeleho, Mr..
E. j. Baldwin, of the Santa Anita sta
bles, was the first Californian to put our
running horses to the fore. Unfort-
unately for Mr.. Baldwin, this year he
kept his string east, with the result
that his noblest mare, Sinaloa, sue
cumbed to the rigors of the climate. He
will never make that mistake again.
The climate of California has been dem
pnstrated, time and again, to be the
horses paradise. The turf events on
the eastern courses will take on new
interest to California when they learn
that the victorious Los Angeles stables
are heavily represented.

The preparations for President Harri
sons reception tomorrow in this city
are now well under way. The work is
in good hands, and will undoubtedly be
successfully carried through. An invi-
tation to participate has very appropri-
ately been extended to Governor Luis
Torres, of Lower California, and ex-Gov-
ernor Pho Pico, of what was in his time
Alta California. The Catholic citizens
have organized so as to do their part in
the welcome to be extended to our CHIEF
magistrate. Large quantities of flowers
have been arranged for, and these in
the hands of Southern California's most
beautiful and most valuable product
children, will form unique feature o.
the occasion.

THE terms OF the reciprocity treaty
negotiated between Spain and the
United States have just been made pub
lie. Under the new convention America
will obtain kind zollverein with the
Spanish Antilles. Our wheat, beans,
flour, lard, petroleum, manufactured
products and machinery will enter prac-
tically free of duty. The advantages
resulting to Cuba will be great: the
damage to Spain, inestimable. Owing
to the prospect of civil war in Cuba and
Porto Rico, the Spanish government was
obliged to sacrifice home industries to
colonial interests. In return for the
favors received the United States will
admit free the sugars, molasses, coffee
and hides of the Antilles, and reduce
the duty on tea. Tobacco was excluded
from the negotiations.

The HERALD is glad to see that the
supervisors took note of its remarks
about the way the county superintend-
ent of schools was drawing on the treas
ury, and cut off, yesterday, one OF his
supernumeraries, having just discovered
that his employment was illegal. The
HERALD credits a good mark to the
board for this action, but even at the
risk of becoming tiresome to the honor
able members of the board, is constrain-
ed to ask once more for the names of
those "leading citizens" who secured
Mr.. Aaron Smiths appointment at Sac
ramento. This inquiry may be some
what in the.nature of chestnut, but the
public is deeply interested in its crack
ing. 1t is very meaty one.

In THIS year of grace everything looks
attractive for California. The HERALD
announced early that this was to be a
golden year. The failure of the wheat
crops in extensive portions of Europe
coincide with heavy crops in California.
In the gambling centers of the United
States wheat is going up steadily. There
is no question of the fact that the crop
of grain here is larger than was ever
known before. With the prices now
current in San Francisco and in Chicago
there will be big money for the Califor-
MIA farmer. He will be able to share
the prosperity of bis horticultural
brother, and all will be the happier and
the healthier for the lucky conjuncture.

IT is often a question as to whether
the seasons are changing in Southern
California. They undoubtedly are in
Los Angeles. This county has been
taken for all time out of the dry regions.
Various explanations are offered for the
change. With many the extension Of
railways and the planting Of trees is a
sufficient explanation. These may be
contributory causes. They probably are.
The HERALD, however, believes that the
true solution of the problem is capillary
attraction. The mere opening up of the
soil attracts the moisture from the clouds
and wells it up from the soil. When
agricultural and horticultural operations
first began on large scale in. Fresno
county, the average depth to water was
thirty feet. 1t is now only Six feet.
Fifteen years ago the average rainfall OF
the Sacramento valley was quite twice

HIS TALE OF WOE.
Mr.. Freilinger Claims His Wife Left
His Bed and Board.

The following communication explains
itself:
EDITORS HERALD: In your issue OF yes
terday in your head lines were the
words, Her Tale OF Woe. You, as an ed
itor, should certainly know there are
two sides to any case in equity or matri-
mony in law, and as bed and board has
started her side of the case, deem it no
more than justice that you give me a
hearing.
1t is true that the woman who is max
married to me, and we adopted little
orphan, only verbally, and provided a
home for her as best | could,
for hard-working man. But
she refused to remain in America
and bothered and tormented me to get
her money to go back to Germany, where
she said she proposed to stay. did not
have the money sufficient to pay her
passage, and had to finally go and bor-
row 500 to let her go. For working
man to go out and borrow a hundred
dollars in Los Angeles is some trouble,
assessment roll.
She never was satisfied in this country,
and depression in business prevented me
from living in affluence and plenty, as
my only means of support was by hard
work. The working class in this city,
where have friends without number,
know me, and l supported her as best /
could until she determined to leave my
bed and board and wen, to a foreign
country, and said she wanted to bid me
goodbye forever, after | had borrowed
the money to send her home.
l simply make these statements that
the people of this city who know me will
not think am as bad as the woman
(through an attorney, or attempt at law
tries to make me out to be.

The Emperor William is particu-
larly impetuous young gentleman. He
evidently believes in talking early and
often. The other day, at Kiel, he spoke
of the navy as the great arbiter in future
contests for supremacy in the world.
The HERALD, for the nonce, fell in with
the enthusiastic kaiser. We are in
clined to think that he was incorrectly
reported, and we desire to rectify the
position of this journal. When the
Franco Prussian war broke out France
outside of England, had the finest navy
in the world. Nevertheless, from Saar
bruck to Sedan the French navy counted
for nothing in the most monumental
conflict Of modern times. The Emperor

AN OPPORTUNITY AND A CONTRAST.

If Mr.. Harrison chooses to make po-
litical speeches on his 'swing around
the circle" there is no earthly reason
why newspaper that differs with him
politically should not comment upon
these departures. But we forbear. Los
Angeles will give cordial welcome to
the president. They will do it all the
more cordially because he is the grand
son of an honored president of the
United States, who was an honest and
gallant man, just as his grandson is, who
will be here tomorrow. President Har-
rison may be engaged in building his
political fences-and we rather think he
is-nevertheless we shall welcome him
with glad acclaim. There are a great
many people amongst us who would not
vote for him, were he candidate for re-
election. Even if he is on sort OF
electioneering tour, we would all respect
his high Office. But he can be assured
that in every portion OF the state
of California he will find the difference
and the attention that his exalted
office exacts from all true Americans.
As to Mrs. Harrison, she will receive
the greeting of an uncrowned queen.
There are multitudes of Americans who
would fail to recognize king, but who
would concede the most unbounded
empiry to the first lady of the land.
There may have been, here and there,
a political note in the presidents ad-
dresses that might have been more
subtly inspired. But the HERALD de-
clines to make his advent in Southern
California matter of political contro-
versy. For the first time in our history
we shall greet president OF the United
States who was really elected, and in
greeting him we shall extend the right
hand of fellowship to gentleman whose
grandfather before him was rightfully
elected president. Here is the hon
orable heredity which Los An
geles will acclaim tomorrow. How
different are the preparations to
receive Harrison from the cold and.
Indifferent and perfunctory reception
which was accorded to one R. B. Hayes?
That gentleman had appropriated to
himself an Office to which he was not
elected. He made tour OF the United
States which was only prevented from
being an ignominous failure by the pres
ence of his charming wife, Mrs. Lucy
Hayes. Few people cared to look upon
him and nobody hurrahed for him. In
stead of children crying for him, and
grown men breaking their necks to see
him: he passed through Los Angeles
and all other cities comparatively un-
noticed.
Now we shall have a real live presi
dent and his amiable wife in our midst.
Angelehos will at least equal if they do
not exceed the spontaneity and enthusi-
asm with which the illustrious party
have been received in the south and
elsewhere. Let the golden land give
them right royal welcome, in which
every participant will feel that he is a
sovereign, according rightful precedence
to the first citizen of the land.

THERE are some persons who think
that Frank Pixley is simply crank.
There are good many other people who
know that he is not only crank but a
man who is hurtful to the state in which
he lives. OF course, there are multi
tudes who do not know Pixley's real con-
dition. He puts in his time abusing
Roman Catholics, Irishmen and Jews
pretty nearly the most noble races on
the face of the earth. The late Ipsy Doo-
die Ferguson, who was killed in duel
by William Penn Johnson, the editor
OF tie Alta, once described Pixley very
accurately. He said that, while one
branch OF that gentleman's ancestors
was propagating that useful class of peo-
pie known as the "nigger" in cultivating
cotton in the southern states, still
another branch were engaged in cruelty
ing Christ on Mount Calvary. Pixley
has face which indicates that he be-
longs to the noble Hebrew race, but
he persecutes the Jew and the Cath
olic with such an equal malignity
that it is hard to say what
his all round malignant impulse might
be. There is one thing about Pixley and
his Argonaut as to which there can be
no doubt, and that is that both are
deadly foes, to Southern California.
This splenetic, asthmatic, sciatic and
dogmatic man has always been great
enemy OF this lovely land. Never having
had the opportunity of getting into this
country on the ground floor, he has
always hated Southern California. He
is crank ab initio, but he has been
particularly eager to get in his work on
any geographical division of the state
that lies south of Point Conception.
Southern California can get along with
out Pixley. He amounts to very little
indeed, outside of the last disbursements
of the Stanford sack. California can
survive Plxley. But it is question as
to whether this malignant fellow should
be allowed to go unwhipt OF justice. He
is liar and fraud, and in subsequent
issue we shall see what monumental
liar he is, in deed and in fact.

The council yesterday voted to pay
Mr.. Lockwood his salary for his ser.
vices in last November when he was
justice of the peace. OF course no one
knows where Mr.. Lockwood is, but he
will probably get his money just the
same. By the way the Republican
party should consider Mr.. Lockwood's
claim to the nomination for district at
torney at the next campaign; he now
knows considerable about the way
criminal cases should not be prosecuted
by that official.

Good Houses.
A Social Session drew another good
house at the new Los Angeles theatre
last night. The affair is not presented
with many claims as to its dramatic
importance, but it certainly makes the
spectators keep up a continuous laugh,
which is all that its presenters desire to
effect. There are several novel features
in the performance, and some excellent
specialties. Those who are fond of
