THERE seems to be a difference
of opinion between the railroads
and the people about the advisable
ity of creating State Board of
Equalization. The railroad people
and corporations are very much in
favor of the Legislature passing a
measure introduced by Senator Will
liams to create such Board, while
the majority of the newspapers are
opposed to such a measure. There
are some people who always cop
per anything advocated by railroad
corporations on general principles,
but in this case we believe that the
measure will bear scrutinizing quite
closely. There is no doubt that the
State needs some means Of equaliz-
in taxes, but whether the bill now
before the Legislature will accom-
plish this end or not is doubtful.
We do not like to see 60 many Acts
and parts Of Acts repealed by the
bill.

A SUBSTITUTE bill has been intro

A SUBSTITUTE bill has been intro
duced by Senator Gallagher to take
the place of the i'll introduced by
Assemblyman Gignoux to CONSOLE
date county offices in Lyon and re-
duce expenses. We have not seen
a copy of the bill, but from what
we hear about it, it will not suit
much better than Mr.. Gignoux's
bill did. In the matter of reducing
expenses there are always two fac
tons to please, the office holders
and the people. We believe that a
bill can be drawn up that will re-
duce the expenses of running this
county, say $1,000 year, that will
suit all persons, or nearly so. We
think the only error in Mr..
Gignoux's bill is that it tries to save
too much for starter. The people
would be well enough pleased if
some saving is made and the officials
would not be half so antagonistic
to such a measure, as they would to
one that proposes such a material
cut in their salaries.

The Nevada Legislature voted
down a resolution endorsing the
action of their Senators in Congress
for voting against the Election bill.
At the same time one of these same
Senators received every vote in the
State Senate, but three, when he was
before that body for reelection to
the U. S. Senate. There is a good
deal of consistency about that
Siluer State.

THE report of the State Board OF
Reclamation Commissioners to THE
Legislature is a. funny thing. Said
report prays that Congress will aid
the State in the securing of water
for irrigation purposes, and says
that without this aid nothing can be
done in the way Of retaining lands
in Nevada. The report also q ows
that the Board has spent b ,out
$1,000 of the 100000 appropriation
for "actnal travelling expenses"
tits our opinion that if Nevada
waits for aid from the Government
to build reservoirs and reclaim the
arid lands of the State the present
generation will see no improvement
in this line. The State must take
hold of this work itself. Appropri-
atoms must be made and used for
something else besides travelling
about the country. There is no
reason in the world why the $780,
600 appropriated two years agoby the
State could not have been made to
do considerable good. One thing
it would have done, if used, and
that is it would determine the feas-
ability or impractacability of re-
claiming land by the storage of
water. In Lyon county the expen-
diture of from $4,000 to 100000
would store water that is now going
to waste sufficient to irrigate the
entire lower portion of Mason Val
ley, where now there is vast guam
tity of land that is not taken up
even, and where there is a scarcity
of water unless we have an abund-
ance of snow in the Winter months.
OF course, if Congress will turn
over the land the United States
owns to the State it will be a great |
advantage. A storage fund could
then be established to be kept up by |
the proceeds of the sale of such |
land, but even then we believe ap-
preparations would be necessary to
carry on the work. We must have
more population to be prosperous
community, and water must be OBJ
tanned to irrigate our lands before
people will come here to settle. 1t
is the States duty to bring about
this prosperity.

CINCINNATI surgeons have under
taken to cure idiocy by charging
the skull. From the way the peo-
pie in the East treat the West on
the silver question and other inn
portant matters, it appears to us
that the Cincinnati surgeons have
undertaken a job of gigantic dimen-
sions. The eastern Statesmen (?)
whose intellects are not cramped
out of shape are only outnumbered
by those whose heads have grown
too large to wear their grandfather

ADJUSTMENTS.

Mr.. Sol Smith Russell will be seen at
the opera house tomorrow evening in
his new play Peaceful Valley. In the
play Mr.. Russell has made probably the
most pronounced success of his career.
1t combines the pathetic with the comic
in the most happy manner. In Noah
Vale he has character that fits his per-
sonality and his temperament to perfec-
ton. It's humor is at all times tinged
with the pathetic. The whole play is
pervaded with wholesome sentiment
Mr.. Russell occupies unique position
among players. He has line in which
he has neither competitors nor imita-
tors. His style is so distinctly his own
as to make him an exceedingly interest
ing figure on the current stage.

THERE vas a meeting at the opera
house last night at which Mr.. Moore,
the fraud expert, entertained about one
hundred of his fellow citizens with con-
fident declarations that ct the next as
sembling of the Citizens Protective as
sociation he would present full evidence
OF the guilty goings on in county affairs
in which he has been so long engaged.
1t is to be hoped that Mr.. Moore will
redeem his pledges. The extreme dila-
toriness which has characterized his in
vestigations has had the effect of greatly
diminishing the interest of the public in
a work which was regarded with great
favor at the start. There is general
feeling that a great deal of "shenani-
gin" has been going on, and those who
have been foremost in asserting its ex-
istence should come to the front and ex-
pose it,

How Immigrants Are Brought to This
Glorious Climate-The Chamber of Com
merce Potent Factor-By Their FRUITS
Ye Shall Know Them.

Ii anyone has had any doubt as to the
potentiality of the chamber of commerce
as factor in inducing immigration, the
following letter received by Surerinten-
dent Virgins yesterday ought to be con-
vincing:
WAKEFIELD, Neb., Sept. "a, 1891.
Mr.. Frank Virgins:
DEAR SIR: You will remember the
collection OF California products that
you gave me before l came east. Well,
l arrived here with two trunks full
opened up here and have sold eight
20-acre fruit farms to parties that will
come here and settle on them this win
terr
1 will start for Los Angeles with ten
parties on October 10th to show them
the wonders of Southern California, and
will be very sure to visit the chamber OF
commerce, and hope to see you there.
have over twenty that will start out
to California December 1st. Yours re-
spectfully, GEORGE GRAHAM.
1t seems that there is no argument SO
persuasive with intending immigrants
as an actual demonstration of what the
soil and climate OF Southern California
are capable of producing. That is why
the Chicago exhibit, California on
Wheels and the permanent exhibit here
have done SO much good. The author
of the above letter became infatuated
with the country when he was here,
and made up his mind to induce eastern
friends to locate here. But fearing that
they would be inclined to rate his de-
scriptions of the country as California
lies," he determined to show them the
fruits of the country which would ad-
vertise it more eloquently than words.
Mr.. Wiggins being appealed to, fitted
him out, with the result above 9numer-
ated.
The chamber receives many such tes-
timonials of the work it is accomplish
ing. Mr.. Casterline, who starts for Eu-
rope today. had his name added to the
membership list yesterday, and takes
with him display of California nuts,
dried fruits, etc, furnished by Superin-
tendent Wiggins, which he intends to
use for advertising purposes while
abroad

THIS mornings Associated Press dis
patches from San Diego contain this
item: President Marvel was asked by
a committee of the common council of
San Diego, who waited upon him,
whether the general offices of the Santa
Fe railway system would be removed
from Los Angeles to San Diego. He re-
piled that it could not be done now, at
any rate" For unmitigated gall, and
sublimity OF cheek, this request OF the
San Diego common council takes the
cake. Do those people suppose that the
general offices of the Santa F6 will be
removed from the metropolis OF South
ern California, where the bulk OF their
business is done, to a small town like
San Diego, lying on one side OF the terri
tory of the Santa F6, and furnishing so
small a portion OF the business OF that
railway system? Do they suppose that
bright business man, like Mr.. Manvel,
would do an act that would antagonize
nineteen-twentieths of his patrons? Mr..
Marvel very wisely told them that it
s'could not be done for the present. !"
Well, hardly! Not for the present nor
in the "near future" /" nor as long as the
Santa Fe railway company wishes to do
business successfully in Southern Cali
fornia.

THE members Of the council, with tn

THE members Of the council, with the
city engineer and several local engineers,
accompanied by representatives OF
the press, yesterday inspected the
entire line of the proposed out
fall sewer. The route selected
is much shorter one than that
submitted by the fermer council, which
was defeated by q yote,of the people. 1t
is also laid out with a much greater re-
gard to the utilization of the sewage
upon land that neede it, for the sewer
will control some twenty or thirty
thousand acres of irrigable land, whilst
at the utmost there will only be sewage
for about $4,000. The difference be-
tween thes estimated cost of the former
plan and this one is very material. The
outfall that was defeated was to cost
over 100000; the cost OF the one now
proposed is estimated at $350,000. The
right of way has been secured from the
disemboguement OF the city system, at
the corner OF Grand avenue and Jeffer-
son street to Inglewood. Here it has to
cross the lands of Mr.. d. Freeman and
parties to whom he has sold, and they
refuse to grant the right of way. The
council seems to think they can over.
come the objections raised here. The
route is the best yetproposed,as it is the
shortest, and would reach the ocean at
a point about midway between Redondo
and Santa Monica, and where there are
no bathing resorts or settlements.

THE health department of New York
has seized a large quantity of grapes
brought into the city from Roundout,
Newburgh and other points on the
Hudson river, where the grow
ers have been using sulphate OF
copper in their vineyards to kill the
phylloxera. The health officers have
traced, as they believe, several cases of
poisoning to the use Of their grapes, and
have therefore placed them under the
ban of dangerous articles of food
that should be destroyed. But the
singular part of the affair is that the
snlphate of copper was used by
the vineyardists by the advice
of the department of agriculture at
Washington. and a lively war of cores
pondence is looked forward to between
Uncle Jerry Rusk and his specialists
and the health bureau of New York.
This is the first public intimation the
country has officially had of the exist
sence of phylloxera in the vineyards at
the east, and it would be well to make a

TEE exhibition of our products in the
east has always been attended with the
happiest results. The latest instance
was the receipt of letter yesterday by
Mr.. Frank w iggins, of the chamber Of
commerce, from Mr.. George Graham,
dated at Wakefield, Neb., September
24th, in which the latter gentleman
speaks of the effect of two trunkfuls of
Los Angeles products which he took
east with him. AS result, he has sold
eight twenty acre fruit farms to parties
that will come out and settle on them
this winter. Mr.. Graham adds that he
will start for Los Angeles with ten par
ties on October 10th to show them over
this section. Seeing is believing, and
there is nothing ike the products Of the
country to induce settlement.

THE bond of the Itata for $24O, 900 was
filed yesterday and will be considered
by Judge Ross today. There is hardly
q reasonable doubt but that it will be
approved by the Judge and the Itata
will be allowed to go at her own sweet
viii. The sense that neither the wishes
nor the will of the people of the United
States have been represented at any
stage of this matter has grown with the
passing days. There was very little oi
the spirit of international law, and nc
sense at all, in her original detention,
or in any of the subsequent proceedings
relating to this vessel. But we suppose
we must pass the incident to the credit
of the magnificent foreign policy which
Secretary Blaine has given us,' to en-
ploy the language of one Of his ad-
mirers.

ELSEWHERE appears full translation
of Chinese lottery ticket. The law
yers engaged in handling these kind of
cases never heretofore thought of hav-
ing one of the tickets translated. 1t
will be seen that it is full of the Aowery

quite poetical, in fact. John. in his
business transactions with the Mclean
man, is very practical, but when it
comes to cinching his fellow country
men he drops into poetry with the easy
grace of Silas Wegg. His sentiment,

THE Chronicle seems to be very much
concerned at the annoyance which
some of it's friends are suffering at the
hands of the San Francisco grand jury.
Instead of cooperating with an evil
IDENTIFY honest intention to unearth and
punish fraud by Judge Wallace and the
respectable gentlemen who compose the
grand jury, it has nothing but petty
.eneers for all who are at the head OF a
manifest movement of reform. The
people cannot fail to see through the
partizan animus that underlies all this
carping. The latest and perhaps
most ingenious development OF this
animosity is its theory that Buck
ley and his fellow boodlers left
through the very energy OF the grand
jury-that the action of that body gave
them their cue'te leave, and SO on, and
so forth. A body of energetic and able
men can do much, but they cannot
cause the arrest of any one until some
tangible evidence has been developed.
If these people, who are supposed to be
boodlers, have succeeded in getting
away, it is a misfortune, but an unavoid-
able one, and ought not to be laid to the
account of the men who have the pub
lie interest at heart. If Crimmins and
his crowd should follow Buckley it is
doubtful whether it would be an un-
mixed evil.

THERE is certainly something remark
ably unpleasant in the way in which
things are developing in Russia. The
barbarous persecution of the Jews is be-
ing succeeded by horrible tales of fam
inc and riot in all portions OF the en-
pire. Ordinarily this would indicate
that revolution something like that of
France in 1889 was impending, but a
writer who knows Russia we'll says the
peasants are incapable of organization
or agitation. They can simply run riot
and kill, and their career will not be
checked until the troops encounter
them and do the requisite amount of
counter-killing. Such sporadic efforts
are not likely to effect any extended or
permanent results. But there is some
thing decidedly interesting and dispirii-
ing in whole people threatened with
famine. The expelled Hebrews are al
ready avenged. Russia seems to be on the
verge OF untold horrors. In fact, taking
one development with another, all
Europe is enduring an unusual amount
OF disaster and suffering. What with
the inundations ON the Danube, the
floods in Spain, the short crops in all
lines everywhere, theimminence Of war,
earthquakes, and whatnot, it seems high
time for some Of the disciples Of Miller
