Special TO the Gazette.

Speclal 10 the Gazette.
ALBANY, TEX, May 26-At $50 this
morning the district Alliance met at the
rooms in the courthouse of the local Al
lance here and were escorted by that or
ganization to the inspiring music of the Al
bany cornet band down Second street to
Elm grove park, where Judge Bartholomew,
mayor of Albany, was introduced to the
audience by Mr.. w. p. Prirchard, marshal
of the day. In short speech, the mayor
extended, on behalf of the city, cordial
welcome to the visitors and was answered
BY Mr.. Webb of Abilene, district lecturer
of the Alliance, who returned thanks in be-
half of himself and his brethren
for the kindness and attention
shown them Mr. Webb spoke
Of the good feeling existing between the
members of the order and the citizens gen
orally, and paid splendid tribute to The
hospitality of the people of Albany.
Mr.. j. T. Bradley, editor of the Jack
County Sentinel the official organ of the
Alliance, was next introduced and in
lengthy speech set forth the purposes,
principals and objects of his order. The
speaker was warmly cheered during his
talk, which was very interesting and was
appreciated by al.
Mr.. Bradley occupied the attention of the
audience until noon, ut which time all par
took bountifully of a barbecued dinner,
after which the Alliance went into secret
session at the courthouse. The attendancel
today is not s. large as was eX-'
pected, on account of the threat
ened bad weather on yesterday, but
the sun has been shining brightly to-day
and has dried the ground, and Indications
now are that the weather during the bal
ance Of the session will be agreeable.
Crowds Of people are arriving to-day and
the indications are that the attendance will
reach into the thousands by tomorrow.

beautiful child aged nine years, but whose

had indecent proposals made TO her by
Rodgers only couple Of days prior to his
arrest. He met the child on the street and
gave her some picture cards. having on
them the imprint of the New Home Sewing
machine. He tried to persuade the child to
go with him for boat ride, promising her
candy, toys and ''lots of fun The little
girl would not go, however and told the
proposals made her to an intimate lady

THE REGION OF PROMISE.

It would pay every business man N
Los Angeles to make periodical visits OF
inspection OF that vast stretch OF coun-
try which lies at the base of the San
Bernardino mountains and sweeps away
from Ferris and from the foothills of the
San Jacinto range down towards the
Temecula. Here is territory, vast and
virgin, which is being transformed, by
the introduction of great irrigation ia
cilities, into the prosperous homes OF
thousands of families. 1t is but yester-
day, as it were, that Redlands and
the settlements above it were laid
out. Now the country is one vast
orchard of citrus and other fruits.
The first settlers have by in
dustry placed themselves in the most
enviable position man can occupy, that
of having home and holding that
will always insure him a modest COM
petence. The second wave of settlers
have also come in and done wonderfully
we'll. The pioneer successes have of
course had an upward effect upon land
prices in that vicinity; but when the
possibility of returns from those
lands is considered, their cost
as yet is not far above
bedrock prices. On Friday the water
was introduced into the Perris country
from Bear Valley reservoir, distance
of forty miles. That water will irrigate
seventy square miles of fine land, and
we may confidently look for the growth
of another Riverside at that point. In
deed places of the highest promise are
springing up in every direction in that
region of our back-country, and wher-
ever poor man goes in and secures a
small tract of land and then
expends intelligent energy in
its development, that man will soon
find himself placed permanently beyond
the reach of want. This is going to be
eminently the country of happy homes,
conjoined with worldly prosperity, and
the man who fails to take advantage of
the sea OF opportunities that now sur
rounds him in this section, lacks the
faculty of improving his condition under
any circumstances.

GOVERNOR CAMPBELL made it appear
that the tariff, as levied by the McKin-
ley bill, was unquestionably a tax, and
cited various instances of enormous
duties which must be visited upon the
consumer. Last week, he said. Chi
cage firm received $1400 worth of pearl
buttons from Austria, and the duty on
them was just $4,000, or trife over 200
per cent. Did the foreign manufacturer
pay nearly $4,000 for the privilege of
sending these buttons here? The Nc
Kinley bill provides that SO per cent. of
the duties on some articles shall be re-
funded, provided those articles are ex-
ported. Last year the Standard Oil
company imported tin to this country
upon which they paid more than a
million and quarter duty. If they did
not, if the foreigner paid that duty,
then the United States put its hand in
our pocket and presented the Standard
Oil company with a million and
quarter CT our money, for this amount
was refunded to the Standard Oil COM
panv.

A San Franciscans Experience with a
Hack Driver.
The queer things we hear and the
queer things we see are not all English,
you know. Yesterday afternoon HER
AID reporter was standing on the corner
of Second and Spring streets when a
young fellow, who carried new yellow
leather grip and silver handled UNI
brella and wore spots on his shoes, got
off Second street car and walked over
to the Bryson block corner. He looked
up and down the street and said to a
hackman:
IT want to go to the Hollenbeck."
SECT right in" said the driver, and
the young man got in and off went the
cab up Second street to Broadway and
turned south.
About All hour later the same reporter
saw the cab drive up to the Holenbecaz
and the passenger arrived at his destina-
ton less than half block from where
he had started.
"How much?" he said to the driver.
''Three N 'af."
He paid it and went into the hotel
and registered. That's how the re-
porter learned he was not English. The
society for the prevention of cruelty to
children might prosecute the HERALD if
his name was printed, but when he is at
home he is not far from San Francisco,

IT is not creditable to see the meth
DDS of "tbe wild and woolly west" ex-
empli6ed by such outbursts of popular
vengeance as were witnessed in Omaha
on Friday. Such scenes may be tear
fully overlooked in backwoods and
frontier regions; but that they should
occur in large city, where all the ma
chinery of the law is in full operation,
and where we should look for conserva-
tive and orderly methods in dealing
with crime, is marked blemish on our
civilization. 1t is true that the frequent
miscarriage OF justice all over the coun-
try has led up to provocation to these
revolving scenes; but the logic of such
a condition of Jurisprudence would
point out other victims for public ven
geance than the miserable wretches who
are criminal by nature, by their en-
vironments and by the instinct of their
being.
Los Angeles herald., 1891-10-11

!, WHILST San Francisco is in the way OF
getting postoffice that will cost, site
and all, about three million dollars,
Los Angeles is jogging along upon her
soon-to-be-fnished $4,000 federal
building, which is spacious enough to
make stable for Shetland ponies. Let
us see how this matter "pans out" when
subjected to the test of figures. Los
Angeles has one-ffth as much popula-
tion as San Francisco, with very much
larger ratio of increase. The wealth of
this city, if we measure it by the assess
ment roll, is more than one-ffth that of
San Francisco, and the commercial i'm
portance of our city, with the inevitable
growth of its immense back country,
will give us in a few years a far better
relative standard as center of trade
than the Bay city can possibly possess.
Well, let us see what we are actually
entitled to from the government under
the circumstances. II San Francisco,
with 100000 population, is entitled to a
postof1ice building alone that will cost
100000, Los Angeles, with one-fifth
that population, is at least entitled to
an appropriation Of 100000 for federal
building that will accommodate, not
only the postofice, but all the federal
courts and federal revenue offices for
this part of the state. But then, San
Francisco has "fooence" at Washington
that we have not. She has two sena-
tors and four or five congressman, while
we have absolutely nobody we can call
our own.
Los Angeles herald., 1891-10-11

THE result of Wanamaker's visit to
San Francisco with President Harrison
has just materialized in the purchase of a
site for postofice for that city, at the
corner of Seventh and Mission streets,
for $1,040,000 The most experienced
and reliable valuators Of real estate in
that city estimate that the lot would be
well sold at 100000. The location is
denounced by the business men as one
that is not only inconvenient to them
but that will cause time to be wasted in
taking mails back and forth from the
trains. But as there is a clear steal in
this transaction OF $780, 600, the parties
who will divide this money amongst
themselves are doubtless high enough
aud influential enough to make the
bargain stick. The robbery is so palpa-
BILE, however, that it ought to be made
subject of investigation by United
States grand jury.
Los Angeles herald., 1891-10-11

The lot which the United States gov
eminent has agreed to purchase for a
postoffice site in San Francisco at the
genteel figure of 81, O4O, 900, was assessed
this year at $1S9, 295, including improve
ments. That was either a very low as
sessment or the United States govern
ment has been cinched to an abominable
extent by the boodlers who have its ear
in this matter.

CHcAeo has earned another chance to
crow over New York. She can point to
a fine equestrian statue OF General
Grant, while the Gothamites are still
considering the question OF raising a
monument to his memory in the park
where his remains are deposited. Chi
cago gloats over her rival for the Column
bia fair, but she had better go slow.
She wants a 100000 appropriation,
and New York has votes in congress.
