upland and 2,628 bales of sea island, against
1920 bales Of upland and 1883 bales sea-
island last year.
The particulars of the receipts have been
as follows: Per Central railroad. q, 729 bales
upland; per Savannah, Florida and Western
railway. 10, 1875 bales upland and 400 bales
island; per Savannah river steamers. 2SS oales

1914 bales upland and i3, 045 bales sea island,
against 1928, 044 bales upland and 9,516 bales sea
island last year.
RIoE-The market has continued dull and de-
void Of any interest whatever. There WAS very
little inquiry and the business doing was of the
hand to mouth character to satisfy the regular
local demand. There are really no orders from
abroad, and although the market occupies
strong position SO far as supplies in sight are
concerned, it sseems TO give poor support to
values in the absence OF outside inquiry. The
sales for the week were about 300 barrels. The

Los Angeles herald., 1891-01-14

THE HERALD presents today a report
Of what the orange growers OF Orange
and Tustin are doing in the way of re-
suscitating their groves. The Orange
red scale, the most destructive Of all the
scale pests, has run riot in Orange county
for the past three or four years. Thus
far no sort of parasite has appeared
which will prey upon this variety of
scale pest. The shell OF this parasite is
SO hard and the armament to be reached
by the penetration OF so hard hide,
have protected the bug from any parasite
predacious on it, Washes have failed to
extirpate the pest, for the reason that no
mechanical appliance has been invented
that will interject the spray into all
parts OF the tree. The hydrocya-
nide gas permeates every nook and
corner, and gets into the very pores OF
the tree. The result is that orchards
given up as lost are being revived and
put into bearing order. The beautiful
Los Angeles herald., 1891-01-14

JOHN SHERMAN, being at last ready
primed, has fred off his gold-bug speech.
Sherman belongs to the class of people
who said that when silver was selling
for S5 cents an ounce, any legislation in
it's interest would only be productive of
unlimited disaster. The intimate rela-
tionssof John Sherman with the bankers
OF New York have made him, from poor
man on small salary, very rich man.
II the story of his dealings with the
Third National bank of that city could
be written up, the secret of how a man
ON small saRr who has not been out
Of fpublic life for year during the last
three decades, can become millionaire.
OF course he saved enough out of salary
OF 5000 a year, living in city which
necessitated an expenditure OF at least
$4,000 per annum. to explain this mir
acle. As we have said, John Sherman,
after having assisted to demonetize sill
yer, began to buck against anything that
tended to restore its rightful relation to
gold. when the white metal was down
to So cents per ounce. The last
treasury report shows that silver
commanded from $105 to $1.O7
an ounce. Thus, in spite OF Sherman's
Cassandra outgivings, silver has ad-
vanced from twenty to twenty-five
cents an ounce since the first legislation
favorable to it has taken place. OF
course, this old marplot icicle knows
that the free coinage OF silver, with a
secretary of the treasury of the United
States in unison with the western senti-
ment on this vital question, would i'm
mediately send that staple up to 81 20 an
ounce, or on parity with gold; and
that, with the United States IN the fore
ground, the double standard of gold and
silver would Immediately prevail over
the whole world. But he obevs the be-
hests Of his gold bug masters, and does
all that lies in his power to deepen and
broaden the wound which he has al
ready inflicted on his country.
Los Angeles herald., 1891-01-14

SENATOR CARPENTER, of this city, has
been called a carpet-bagger. His resi-
dence in Southern California has not
been of the longest. Long or short as it
may nave been, we notice that he has
been appointed chairman of the senate
committee on corporations-by long
odds the most important com mittee of
that body. Only one other distinguished
citizen of Los Angeles has ever filled
that position. We allude to Hon.
Charles Maclay, who lately died at San
Fernando, full of years and honors. At
that time, however, Mr.. Maclay was
citizen of Santa Clara county, and had
not tran sferred his residence to Los An

achievements. 1t is only right to con-
cede the fact that our military authori-
ties exhibited a profound sagacity in
compelling the hostiles to show their
hands in midwinter. Ifthey had waited
until the spring had brought abounding
grasses the difficulties of the situation
would have been amazingly enhanced.
The Indian would then have been to a
certain extent master of the situation.
He would have had the ability to move
freely over large circle, and to have
worked destruction at his own sweet
will. The frontier settlements would
have gone down before his ruthless
activity. The bleak winter has been OF
inestimable service to the soldier.
