Los Angeles herald., 1891-09-01

THE Chileans who have just succeeded
in overthrowing the Balmaceda govern
ment have developed an intense hatred
of United States Minister Eagan. It
does not seem to be an ordinary antipa-
thy, such as would arise from mere
perfunctory conduct prejudicial to their
interests when struggling against the
power of Balmaceda; but one OF so in
tense and vengeful character, that
they must believe that the American
minister deliberately misused his office
and his position to do them some great
and objectionable wrong. Perhaps they
have learned that Minister Eagan was
the cause of all their troubles with the
Washington government, and that his
representations to the state department
were of a character to create strong
prejudice against them and their cause.
The country would like to hear from
Mr.. Eagan on this subject. 1t seems
strange that man who himself was at
the head of great struggle for the
emancipation of his countrymen from
British tyranny, should have been a
warm partisan of Balmaceda in his de-
termination to crush the insurgents.

Revenge on a Widower.

A heavily veiled woman, dressed in
black, entered the business office of one
of the morning newspapers a few days
ago and inserted death notice, with
the announcement of the funeral next
day. Many friends of the deceased man
read of his death with sorrow, and at
the hour mentioned for the services
gathered at his house. Several carriages
stood in the street, but no hearse was
visible, nor was there any Grape on the
door.
In fact, instead of witnessing the last
sad rites the visitors found themselves
ushered into brilliantly decorated
room, in which clergyman was about
uniting their alleged departed friend to
his second wife. The laugh went around.
but the mystery was not solved until
some time after. 1t has since transpired
that his first wife's relatives were bitterly
opposed to the widower's second mar
riage, and inserted the funeral notice in
a spirit Of revenge for the outraged feel
ings of the shade of wife No. 1.-Phila-

Baking Powder Conspiracy.

A disreputable method of advertising
a baking powder came to light in an
Ohio court few days ago. 1t seems a
band of women go from house to house,
wherever they can gain entrance, as they
say to test baking powders. They carry
along samples of other well-known and
popular brands of baking powders, and
these it was shown had been drugged
for the purpose of the pretended test for
purity.
1t was shown that the so-called
testers were in the employ of a GER
tain baking powder company, and that
the parties in practicing such deceptions
upon other brands or upon consumers,
in order to sell their own goods, were
amenable to the law against con-
spiracies.
Two of the women were locked up to
await action of the grand jury.

WITH some people there is question
of absorbing interest, which may be
formulated in the proposition, "Who
backs the Salvation Army?" The nat
ural answer, with most people, would
be, "Some crank" Whoever this per-
sonage may be, he has a we'll equipped
following, an assured pay roll and plenty
of the blare of bugle and clash of Gym
bal. A question perhaps as interesting
is, "Who puts up the funds for the
Twentieth Century literature with
which the United States and the world
is being deluged, and which confronts
US just now in the Economics of An
archy,' brochure which is claimed to
be study of the Industrial Type by
Dyer D. Lum?" If Solomon was war
ranted in saying, thousands of years
ago, ''of the making OF many books there
is no end," what may not the hard
bested utilitarian of the present age
say? Verify, he may claim that he is
in the iconoclastic swim; and that,
sink or swim. survive or perish, he must
face the dire ordeal of interminable

Why is it that some of our leading
people do not make move to try to
save the Rosemeade farm and its valua-
BILE stud to the industries of our county
Surely it is no small matter to retain
here an interest that will almost assur-
-edly place our county at the head of the
localities in the United States dis
tingnished for the breeding of horses.
We are assured that this farm ia unique
in respect to the stock collected there.
Mr.. Rose says that from twenty-five to
thirty colts Will be foaled next spring,
and that these as yearlings will easily
bring $1,000 apiece. The possibilities of
increase on the farm are only limited by
the demand for thoroughbred stock.
The establishment has been got together
at great expense of money and time, and
its equal will never be seen again here
if this one should be broken up and
scattered. As an industry of great fu-
ture financial benefit to the county, we
should try to retain it here. The breed
ing Of fine horses is one of the interests
Tor which this county ie peculiarly
adapted, and we should encourage its
expansion rather than permit its con-

FALSIFYING OLIVE OIL.

A little over a year ago a member of
the state board of horticulture visited a
number of the leading and second-class
groceries in San Francisco and pur-
chased from each bottle of the best
enre olive oil they had on sale. The
contents of each bottle were assayed,
and in every instance, with one or two
exceptions, the "pure olive oil'' was
found to be cotton-seed, peanut or mus
Bard-seed oil.
Elwood Cooper, Frank Kimball and
other gentlemen, who are raising trees
and trying to build up pure Olive oil
industry in this state, knowing that it
would be useless to attempt to compete
with these vile fabrications in posses
sion of the market were instrumental in
securing the passage of bill by the
last legislature which is intended to
help the olive industry. Whether this
act will stop the sale of nut oils for
olive. is very doubtful Itprovides that
the producers of pure olive oil shall file
afiidavits attesting the purity of their
oil, and describing the labels and trade
marks used.
In this way few purchasers will be
enabled to be certain of buying pure
olive oil if they are posted upon the
names of the producers. OF course peo-
pie who are thus posted can protect
themselves, but the great mass of the
consumers will not fare any better than
heretofore. The false oils will be la
belled as pure, and the chances are that
they will come very near to being fac
SMILES of the genuine article. The law
would have been far more effective if it
compelled the manufacturers of nut and
seed oils to describe them as such on
their labels. But as long as these goods
are allowed to be publicly sold under
false label-as olive oil, when it is lie
they will very materially succeed in
keeping out the genuine article. Their
cheapness and the lie will prevail over
the price and the purity of the honest
article.
1t is no guarantee to the purchaser
that he is getting the genuine article of
oil because it ia imported from the south
of France or from Italy. The adultera-
tion of oil is carried on there to so tre-
mendous an extent that many olive
orchards have been cut down because
their owners could not sell their olives
to the mills in competition with i'm
ported cotton-seed and peanuts. The
fraudulent oil was rapidly supplanting
the genuine in the markets of the
world, and the result was that the
olive industry was rapidly going to
decay. But lately the law has come
10 the assistance of the honest
industry and made it hazardous to use
false labels. This hazard, however, was
readily risked on account of the diff
Guilty and expense of analyzing the false
oils. But very lately Monsieur Brulle
has invented new and simple test for
frand, that has struck terror into the
ranks of the falsifers. British mer-
chants now require Brulle's analysis to
accompany their importations of olive
oil.
Unless we succeed in this country
in breaking down the practice of plac-
ing ON the market nut and seed oils as
pure olive oils, the olive orchardists
will have uphill work to make that in
dustry succeed.

STREET ASSESSMENT CASE.
In the case OF +. R. Manning, respond
ent, VS.. R. S. Den, appellant, an action
to foreclose lien on a street assessment,
the judgment and order denying new
trial are reversed. 1t was alleged in the
complaint that on the 10Th day of Octo-
ber, 1883, the city council of Los Angeles
county awarded to plaintiffs assignOrs a
contract for doing the work upon which
the assessment in question was after
wards issued; that the clerk posted a
notice of said award "on the 18th day of
October, 1888, and for five DAYS there
AFTER" that afterwards, on the 22d day
OF October, 1888, the street superintend-
ent entered into a contract with the
plalntltf's assignors to do said
work, and thereafter made the assess
ment on which this action was brought.
The supreme court finds that the
superintendent of streets entered into
no contract with defendants assignors
for doing the work, and that the assess
ment is therefore void. The decision
concludes ''The judgment entered
herein is erroneous. 1t provides for a
personal judgment against the defendant
Tor any deficiency that may remain after
sale of the lot assessed. Such iudg-
ment is unauthorized"
OTHER OPINIONS.
In the case of Herberger, respondent,
vs.. Husman, appellant, the judgment is
affirmed. This was an action on land
contract. The defendant agreed that if
the plaintiff should be dissatisfied with
the purchase of the lots at the end of
one year, at which time, November 80,
1858, the balance of the purchase price
was to be paid, he would return the
$500 with interest thereon, provided
the plaintiff gave him thirty days no
tice and a surrender of the title to the
lots. The plaintiff did become dissatis-
fled and so notified defendant, who prom
ised to return the $500 already paid as
agreed; but the payment was never
made, and judgment was obtained in
the lower court, which is reversed.
In the case of the San Diego Lumber
company, appellant, VS.. Woodbridge ct
al, respondents, the judgment against
the plaintiff and also the order denying
new trial are reversed and new trial
is ordered. The action was one to fore
close lien for materials furnished de-
fendant Smith as contractor for build
house for defendant Woodbridge.
In the case of G. H. Reed ct al,
respondents, VS.. Thos. Norton, appel
liant, the judgment and order appealed
from are also reversed and new trial
ordered.

The "Silent Steed" is quite likely to
prove an important adjunct in war oper-
ations. The secretary of war detailed
an officer of the United States army to
observe the cycling programme in Con-
necticut. He reports that a cycler,
equipped with carbine and Colts revolver
would be very valuable adjunct to
reconnoitering force of the army. There
is nothing improbable in this. There is
certainly something of interest in such
