THE attention of the school authori-
ties is called to the attempt of San
Francisco newspaper to increase it's cir
culation by holding out scheme of
prizes to the teachers who will secure
the most ballots from their scholars.
These ballots are printed in blank in
the paper, and the idea is to secure from
each scholar a subscription for certain
term, so that the ballots in favor of the
teacher may be cut out and forwarded
to the office to help her secure prize.
These prizes are tempting, and consist
in part of trip to the worlds fair, a
Decker piano, high-priced sealskin
sack, etc. We do not believe that the
board of education should permit the
public schools to carry outsuch schemes,
and would advise thai body to sit down
severely upon this one.

Mr.. TRUMBULL, who is Chilean SEN
ator and figured as the chief defendant
in the charge OF violating the neutrality
laws of this country in the case just de-
cided by Judge Ross, has been inter-
viewed in San Francisco on the subject
of the hostility to Americans, and is re-
ported to have ascribed it mainly to the
action OF Admiral Brown. He said:
Well, mainly, I should say it is
due to the action OF Admiral Brown
in spying upon the movements OF
the insurgents and furnishing Bal
maceda with information. That
this is true / will assert most posi-
lively, and know that the admiral in
formed Balmaceda of the strength OF the
insurgent forces which were landed at
Quintero bay.
This is a most direct and explicit ac-
cusation coming from man whose po-
sition should make him responsible. II
is due to the people and to the Ameri-
can navy that the government should
institute rigid investigation OF this
matter. and clearly show to the world
that the charge is untrue; and If true
the breach of faith would be of so grave
character as to require the admiral'E
immediate dismissal from the service
The country cannot afford to let this
grave accusation continue TO circulate

THERE are number of callow poll
ticians who assume to underestimate the
Importance OF the carrying Of New York
by Roswell P. Flower, the Democratic
candidate. In 1883 Mr.. Harrison re-
ceived 233 electoral votes and Mr.. Cleve-
land 1853, and the former was elected by
the handsome majority of sixty-fve. If.
however, New York had gone for Cleve-
land instead of for Harrison, the former
would now be president of the United
States by majority of three in the cleo
toral colleges. Any one who chooses to
make the calculation will find that
Blaine would have been elected in 1884
if New York had gone for him, while
Hancock instead Of Garfield would have
been president in 1880 if it had not been
for New York's going Republican.
Nothing has been more clearly shown
since 1876-when Tilden carried New
York and was really elected president
than that the large electoral vote of
New York decides the result OF our
presidential elections. As goes New
York 30 goes the union.

JOHN BULL GETTING HIS WORK IN.

There is good reason to believe that
much of the reported ill-feeling en-
gendered in Chile against the United
States has its origin from British
sources, and that it is greatly exag
gerated by the Tory press, which has
developed an animus of malice against
Americans that has not been paralleled
since the civil war. The British
aristocracy, of which the Tory press is
the mouthpiece, is par ticularly hostile
to the American republic, and the in
roads which American commerce is
making in Spanish-America to tn e
detriment of English business interests,
is relied upon to excite the prejudices of
the British commercial element. The
feeling aroused in Chile against Ameri-
cans on account of the imbecile policy
of Harrison's administration in the
Itata affair, was taken advantage of by
English representatives in that country
to excite the animosity of the lower
classes, and this no doubt had great
deal to do with melting the recent at
tack ON the sailors of the Baltimore.
Whenever there is a chance for John
Bull to despitefully use the United States,
he can be counted upon to do it. A spe-
cial dispatch from Valparaiso shows that
he is getting his work in against us in
the South American republic. 1t says:
The sensational stories which have
been cabled to England and thence back
to this country, rejecting upon the con-
duct of the United States and our naval
officers, are probably intended more for
consumption in Great Britain than in
Chile. Beyond the fact that Admiral
Brown visited Quintero bay in the flag
ship San Francisco, upon receiving in
telligence that the junta's troops had
effected landing at that point, there
was not, 30 far as have been able to
ascertain, the slightest cause to arouse in
the minds of the Congressionalists any
suspicion of the American naval officers
strict neutrality.
The recent report from Victoria, to the
effect that the officers of H. M. S. S.
Champion, just arrived there from Val
paraiso, had confirmed the report that
Admiral Brown had steamed in the Bal
timore to Quintero and came back and
reported to Balmaceda all about the
landing of the insurgents, is weakened
by the fact that the Baltimore had not
reached Valparaiso at the time of the
landing. That is strange mistake for

THE elisor is doing needed work in
San Francisco. 1t has struck terror
into the ranks of the boodlers, and will
probably land some of them in the pen
itentiary. 1t has also unearthed a case
of judicial corruption, which if satisfac-
torily proven should consign the ac-
cused to life Imprisonment. The charge
is that Judge Levy received large bribe
to render decision in land title case
Involving property in San Francisco
now estimated to be worth ST.
OOO, 1000. The elisor is also looking
with close scrutiny into the way in
which local offices are conducted, and
trying to get at the true inwardness of
the fact that it invariably takes three or
four men to do work for the city that
one man would consider easy to do for a
private employer. OF course everybody
knows the reason why it is so; but no
one seems yet to have grasped the idea
of how to effectually remedy it. Ii the
elisor can cure this municipal disease, it
will be applauded to the echo. But in
the great matters of legislative bribery,

l'HEATRICALS.

Perhaps no play of modern times has
been 30 much talked about as Sard ou's
Cleopatra, which Fanny Davenport will
produce at the Grand opera house Tues
day. While the play does not follow
the lines of Shakespeare, it undoubtedly
carries with it sequence and the sue.
cess achieved by the play itself, aside
from the magnifcence of its production
proves that plays even if founded on
the great Shakespeare, appeal to the
better class of the public. This is not
to say that Shakespeare's Cleopatra is
less the Cleopatra of history, but the
French writer has invested the char
acter itself with SO much that appeals to
modern audiences, and in manner SO
purely dramatic, with one event follow
ing another so closely and effectively
that our public will no doubt accept the
play as success as readily as it has
taken elsewhere.
So much has been said OF Miss Daven-
ports impersonation of the Egyptian
queen that it is needless to say any thing
IN advance, excepting that she has met
with the greatest success.
ASIDE from ue1 clalm as an ARTIST,
Miss Davenport deserves the common
dation of the public for the pluck and
courage she has shown. She not alone
invested small fortune in buying the
play tor America, but placed it upon the
stage in manner that left the French
production far in the shade. Then the
entire plant was burned after less than
two weeks use. Undaunted by what
would have been the complete wreck Of
an ordinary business enterprise, she i'm
mediately set to work and reproduced
every scene, costume. piece OF armor
and all, down to the minutest detail, in
less than three weeks time. This, o.
course, kept small army busy, and the
whole production was gotten up in 6
manner that has been declared by many
to be even superior to the first.

The excursion to Long Beach today
will carry an immense crowd to the lit
tie city by the sea. The opening of the
Terminal railroad to that point is an
event of more than local Importance.
1t means to our section another over
land railroad that will pass through a
country to Utah that has been shut out
from rail communication with the world,
but which is rich in mineral resources
and coal measures. Everybody will
feel like giving this road good send-off.
and the publication at Long Beach will
be hearty and enthusiastic one.

THE HERALD is indebted to Frank A.
Miller, of Riverside, for neat souvenir
of the tin mines located at Temescal,
near that progressive town. In note
our attention is called to the mountain
of tin in the immediate neighborhood
of the Orange city. Everything OF
course counts that enters into the pros
perity of a place, but the luscious
golden spheres that grow on the shapely
trees that adorn Riverside in every
direction are worth all the mines OF

PATRIOTISM, NOT PARTIzANsHIP.

Our esteemed contemporary, the Ex-
press, after beating about the bush for
days, has at last reached the melancholy
conclusion that the HERALD is charac-
terized by low order of partizanship.
1t is entirely wrong. This journal, in
stead, is actuated by the highest order
of patriotism.
Our motives are really of the nom
pareil order.
In the first place, we have aimed to
drive the governor of the state out of
jobbing the furnishing of public build
ings. The very fact that the chief exec
utive of great commonwealth is at the
head of a furnishing establishment, and
of great Republican ring, of itself sup
poses jobbery. If there is jobbery,
the inevitable corollary is that
there is robbery, as well. Every
dollar which jobbery takes from the
strong box of the people presupposes
robbery. The word is harsh one, but
we believe in DIR. Samuel Johnson 8
rule of calling spade spade. We as
sure our misguided contemporary that
the people, irrespective of politics, are
with us in this matter.
In the second place, we consider it an
absolute essential to the quick attain
ment of the brilliant destiny which lies
Immediately ahead for Los Angeles that
the spirit of reckless extravaganza
should be checked, Our duty is to point
out to the people the great danger OF
placing every department of our local
government in the hands of ring COM
posed of an intriguing portion of one
party.
If for one moment it had been sup
posed that the furnishing of the new
court house would be made to cost the
people of Los Angeles county upwards
of 900 there would have been riot.
The people would never for one moment
have suffered the enormity. 1t was &C.
complished by whispered rumors that it
might be made to cost, in the end,
somewhere in the neighborhood of
$25 1000. Then, by the well known de-
vice of changing the contract from the
original specifications, big and incred-
ible figures we're rung in, such as $500
for desks or benches, or whatsoever
they may be called. that could be dupi-
Gated in Los Angeles for $500.
Our esteemed contemporary suggests
that we should be summoned before the
grand jury to testify as to what we
know about the hard game that has
been practiced upon the taxpayers of
Los Angeles. That is not at all neces-
sary. We frankly admit that what we
know about these matters is as nothing
to what we are determined to know.
| Our attention was first called to the
matter by the mutterings of Republi-
cans about the enormity of the bills
that have been piled up by the Los An.
geles Furniture company in furnishing
the court house and the Whittier reform
school.
Just here we will remark that the
grand jury has an opportunity of i'm
mortalizing itself Ii it shall probe
the matterof furnishing the court house
and the Whittier reform school to the
bottom, its members will 60 down in
our local history with their brows en-
circled by civic aureola. By all means
let them hew to the line, let the chips
fall where they may.
What the Express calls partizanship
on the part of the HERALD is really a
sublimated order of local patriotism.
