in dollar and the value of that dollar !;
but with free coinage. would not this
advantage be confined entirely to the
mine owner and bullion broker? An in
sufficient volume OF currency is the sleep
less and unforgiving foe OF the farmer
and OF all who pay interest; but the
people ought to know before hand how
much and when an increase OF the cur
rency is to take place. If we are to have
a free and unlimited coinage of silver,
the master of the mint and the bullion
brokers would always be- the first to
know of the increase, and the farmer
and merchant would be the first to suf-
fer in prices. Again, how would we be
able to prevent the spectators from
boarding the bullion and thus making
money scarce? We are now coming the
entire product of the silver mines of the
United States. If there is to be some
thing made out of the business, is it not
good Democratic doctrine to let the peo-
pie make it rather than few favored
individuals? We all know that Cleve-
land is honest, and we believe that an
honest man may be safely intrusted with
the helm of the ship Of state. We don't,
any OF US, understand this money ques-
ton. Let us make thorough study of
it before condemning the man, under
whom Democracy has had new bi-th /;
and who is, without question, the hope
and the inspiration of our party.

HOW HE WAS SHOT.
A FRIEND OF RONY GRAINS MAKES
A STATEMENT.
He Virtually Charges B. +. Scherer. of
Lancaster, With Malicious Shooting-A
Request for Food Answered by Bullet.

The HERALD some days ago exclusive
ly published an account of the shooting
of ex-Constable Irony" Grain, of Lam
caster, on Sunday night week before
last.
Mr.. Clayton Gillibrand has sent to the
HERALD statement of the affair from
his point of view, which varies some
what from the account published. Mr..
Gillibrand is evidently friend of Mr..
Grains, though his statement may not
be biased by that fact. He writes as
follows:
Referring to your account in Tues
days HERALn of the shooting of Mr.. M.
III. Grain, in Lancaster on Sunday night
last, wish to correct the misrepre-
sentations conveyed by that erroneous
article, as am in position to know all
the facts, having been with Mr.. Grain
the entire evening. The only true fact
in regard to your account, is that B. F.
Scherer did shoot M. H. Grain, but
the manner of doing it was entirely diff
ferent. The facts are these: B. F.
Scherer keeps the only grocery store in
Lancaster and has always before obliged
the public by accommodating them at
all hours of the night. Having missed
my supper and being hungry,I proposed
to Mr.. Grain to 60 to Scherer's store and
buy something to eat. Grain insisted
on OF my going to his house and getting
food, but not wishing to disturb his
sisted on going to Scherer's store to pro-
cure the food: On arriving there and
finding no light, went round the store
70 hn xuh IL Gn1 ,1o
and raped on the window. Unable to
store to where l found Mr.. Grain and
brother Will, and Charles Davis, Jr.
Then 1 offered win Scherer so cents to
get me something to eat, but he apollo
store door, as B. F. Scherer had barred it
from the inside. While / was still
there talking, Mr.. Grain and my brother
went and ratified the barrels standing in
front of the store until B. +. Scherer
came to the door, when Grain seeing
him coming, turned to me as came up,
and said, s'Here comes Ben." On OPEN
ing the door he began using abusive lam
guage for awakening him, and then /
asked him to get us something to eat, as
he has done many times before. He
refused and went back into the store,
when l ratified the door and said, ''Come
on, Benny, let us have something to
eat" He then came back and we think
ing we were going to get our supper or
something to eat, crowded round the
door. Ben Scherer opened the door, and
thrusting forth six.shooter fired, the
ball passing through the feshy part of
Grains leg, near the thigh. Not being
aimed at any one of us, and being
crowded together, it might have hit any
one of us, instead of Mr.. Grain.
After medical examination Mr..
Grain was pronounced out of danger,
and is now getting along nicely.

Preparations tor the Event Being Vlg-
orously Pushed.
Yesterday was very lively day at
the pavilion. A thousand boxes Of
oranges, lemons and lines were de-
livered and as many more are expected
today. The Duarte mosque is being
covered with oranges and will be en-

For the past week the carpenters and
decorators have been at work from a.
m. to 10 p. M, and will keep this up
until everything is in shape.
1t is estimated that 0,00O oranges
will be used in decorating alone. Thirty
ladies have been engaged in decorating
the court house, and altogether over a
hundred people were at work in the pa
vilion all day yesterday.
San Diego's exhibit will be very fine
this year and a large force is at work
upon it at the present time. Mrs, Strong,
OF Whittier, came in yesterday and is

CLEVELAND AND SILVER.
The Reform Club Letter of Cleveland
Defended,

EDITORS HERALD: The Democrats will
do well to do little careful thinking
before they make up their minds to
throw Mr.. Cleveland overheard as a
political Jonah. While he has expressed
himself on the silver question, he has
not yet given us his views on the cur
rency question. He is opposed to the
free and unlimited coinage of silver; but
he is not opposed to a sound currency,
and enough of it to do the business Of
the country. Is it not a fact that if
either OF the free coinage bills now be-
fore congress should become law, the
bullion broker could take 80 cents worth
of silver to the mint and get it coined
into a dollar? The farmer and mechanic
cannot take advantage Of this profitable
privilege. As silver is now coined, the
whole people, through their agency, the
government, profit by the difference be-
tween the value Of the silver contained

A FRUIT CAR FAMINE.
A FREIGHT AGENT THINKS SUCH A
THING LIKELY.
Fifty Carloads Of Oranges Must Be Shipped
Every Day-Are There Enough Cars?
Railroad News Notes.

Freight men are beginning to be ap-
rrehensive about the moving OF the or
ange crop. One of the best informed
railroad freight agents in the city yester-
day spoke OF the matter as follows
"Only Is per cent. OF the crop has
been shipped so far, which leaves about
34OO cars to be forwarded. Shipments
are made as late as July 1st, but after
June LIST very few cars are loaded, which
leaves the bulk to be handled in this
and next month.
''Do you know what the railroads
have got to- do? Well, the Santa Fe
and Southern Pacific from now on must
ship on an average fifty carloads day.
Now, then, few days OF rain, which
stops picking and packing, will increase
that average, and as it is, ! should not
be surprised if in six weeks time there
should be car famine.
Usually the fruit cars make an aver
age of four trips season, but generally
by this date thirty or forty per cent. Of
the crop has gone. The protracted rains
have delayed shipments, and the fruit
cars will not be able to average more
than two trips each. During the COM
ing thirty days, for instance, the two
lines will have to ship 1900 cars, and
they won't come back right away, either.
1t takes time to get fruit cars back from
Chicago, even when they are quickly un-
loaded and started on the return trip.
"In six weeks l should not be at all
surprised if there should be dearrh of
cars, and great amount of consequent
inconvenience, if not loss, to shippers"
THE TEMEcULA CANON ROAD.
This evening will see the whole South
ern California railroad system open for
traffic, excepting the Temecula cafion
route to San Diego. 1t is possible, as
stated in yesterdays HERALD, that this
will not be rebuilt. General Manager
Wade has had an inspector walk over
the line, who will probably make his
report today. If the line is as badly de-
molished below Elsinore as is thought,
it will be abandoned from that place
south. For thirty miles it extends
through a region which never will fur
