By vote. The conference is to
formulate political platform that
the industrialists could favor at

of this platform, as presented at

actual settlers; the establishment
OF a national monetary system
without the Intervention of banks,
and government control of tole-

Indian Troubles Near

kilograms from Fort Hall,
Idaho, says the Bannocks at the
reservation at that place are be-
coming turbulent. AS the Ban
nocks are an off-shoot of the
Piutes and talk the same dialect
it is not improbable that the craze,
which seems to be general among
the Indians, will reach the Piutes
in Northern Humboldt, who are in
constant communication with the
Bannocks. Possibly the cold
weather may prevent Nevada
Indians from going on the war
path. but, as many OF them receive
nothing from the Government, and
are on the verge OF starvation in
the vicinity of Fort McDermit
trouble may ensue.

Two Michigan doctors have be-
come rivals of Professor Koch.
They have invented a cure for
consumption that consist in plac-
ing the patient in a receiver and
partially exhausting the air. A
tube extending to the outside is
fastened on the mouth and rose,
and air at atmospheric density is
breathed. The theory is that the
expansion that will, of course, at
tend such an experiment will fill
the cells of the lungs and restore
their functions, and it looks very
plausible until one is reminded of
the danger to the drum Of the ear.

Fashions In Fans.

There are gauze fans of novel design,
hand painted, with flights of butterflies,
swallows and dragon flies, and studded at
intervals with mock gems-diamonds, ru-
bies, emeralds and the like. They glitter
and look very brilliant by gaslight, and
are comparatively inexpensive. A pretty
fan of black gauze, called the "rising sum- =
is ornamented with graduated lines Of
gold 1t would be just the thing to carry
with black and gold ball gown. Some
young girls have their first name painted
on their fans. One seen was in crepe de
Chine, with the word "Violet" painted in
violets upon it. The flower fans are lovely,
but very fragile. They generally copy the
form and colors of a poppy or arcao.

why Wool is Away Down.
CMsnsneld Shield and Bannsr.)

There is something rotten about the
way a high tariff makes a high price
for wool and the Ohio farmers are going
to know where it is If they have to dis
sect the author of the Mckinley bill
to find it. The new tariff law increased
the protection" on wool, but the
farmers are presented with the condi-
ton and not the theory that wool has
not been so low for many years.
They want to know why.
The real reason that the price Of wool
has declined is that the Mckinley law
taxes raw wool, that is to say the raw
material, so high that wooden mill men
have been obliged to shut down. This
has depressed the wool market and the
price is 124 per cent, below what it was
last year.
Some Republican farmers may not
believe that, so we quote from the
Chicago Tribune, one of the leading
Republican papers of the northwest, as
follows on the condition of the wool
market as the effect of the Mckinley
tariff bill:
During the last fiscal year before the
Mckinley bill went into effect the total
importation of wool of all grades were
about 200, ,0O0,000 pounds. During this
calendar year there will be about 2OO,-
OO0,0 900. The wool growers east of the
Mississippi are losing their market by
the stupid folly of that bill. There is
no demand for their fleeces. They offer
them for three or four cents less pound
then they did year ago, and yet they
find it difficult to sell them. They
must either lower their prices, which
are already below the cost reproduction,
or they must go out of the wool-growing
business, except as mere incident OF
mutton production, and leave the grow
ing of wool in this country to the
ranchman of the arid regions beyond
the Missouri. The responsibility for this
state of things in the wooliDdustry east
of the Mississippi rests upon those men
who drafted the wool schedule IF the
Mckinley bill, and made fit the key
stone and the very soul of that bad
measure. They were the intolerable
and intolerant fools who declare that an
increase in the wool duties would raise
the price of Ohio and Michigan fieeces,
enrich farmers, keep out foreign wool,
and wonderfully stimulate the produc-
ton of the domestic article. The
Tribune tried to reason with them, tell
ing them that they would pull down the
prices by interfering with foreign mix
ing woods, ipjure the wOolen manufac'
turers and the consumers, and play
havoc with the Republican party at the
elections.

machine. Republican papers have long
been telling their readers that Mr.. Reid,

at work to secure the free admission OF

there was a probabability that he
would succeed. Now comes the news
that the French government has decid,

officers handy pistol then comes into
play, and there is mournine ii TIE lam
lily of an honest man. This thinx win
occur as long as the officers are encour-
aged by immunity from punishment in
shooting down people who run away
from them. It is far better that ninety
nine hundred guilty men should escape
than that a single honest citizen should
be even only slightly wounded by the
timid or over-ready policeman. The
police department, which fails to incul-
cate prudence and patience upon the
officers, and which encourages them in
using their pistols with murderous reck-
lessness. ought to be abolished. The
security of a city and the lives OF citi-
zens should not be entrusted to such
men. The maxim that should be i'm
pressed upon all officers is to never fire
upon fleeing man. and to never use
their pistols only in necessary self-de-
fence. To violate this rule should be so
severely punished that no policeman
even if he were as stupid as an oyster
would fail to have it always wildly
present in mis- mind.

TINS is st. Valentines day, and the
mails will be surcharged with the mes
sages of love. There is no record that
St. Valentine himself was lover, or
that he ever wrote love letter; but
the birth of this saint happened to
agree with pagan custom which was
grated upon the manners of the early
Christians, and the feast OF the Luper-
Gala became the season in which cupid
has held sway since the time of the
good Bishop Valentine, AID. 270. OF
late years there has been a great inn
provement in valentine literature. The
brutal comic cartoons of few years ago
are giving way to valentine that is
really meritorious, both in it's love-laden
lines and its exquisite designs. One of
Sir Walter Scott's best novels is most
picturesque portrayal of the customs
that prevailed in Scotland on this pleas
ing anniversary in the fourteenth CEN
tury, and st. Valentines day or the
Fair Maid of Perth has made many
love-stricken swain and enamored
maiden pore over its pages and follow
the course of true love as it meandered
in the checkered stream of the court
chip OF the Smith of the Wynd and the
lovely daughter OF the stout burgess

No Half Way.

Few merchants realize the fact that to
make promises, and break them, to make
statements and disregard them, to offer
inducements on paper and then not give
them, is villainous way of doing bust
ness, and will end in disaster. They
think they are cute and can fool the
people, but they simply fool themselves.
In all the many years that the City of
Paris has been in existence they have
followed only honest, straightforward
and legitimate business principles,
and they propose to continue doing
30. This firm is now enjoying a
remarkable success in their "Clear-
ance Sale" Only legitimate bar
gains are being offered; prices are
being cut in two; goods slaughtered.
One reason is that they are retiring
positively-from the Wholesale busl-
ness" and the entire stock is being.
thrown on the retail market. In addi-
ton to this "Clearance Sale," which
will continue during the month, they
will today offer, the public SPECIAL
SALE of notions and fancy goods, both
out OF their retail store, and also the
entire wholesale stock. This "NoTIoN
SALE" will be the GREATEST SPECIAL event
that has ever been enjoyed by the peo-
pie of Los Angeles. All are invited to
attend. Remember that the Clearance
Sale will also continue during this
month, and the NOTION SALE for one

THAT the HERALD has not been throw
ing its work away is shown by the fact
that the police force pulled two Chinese
dice games last night, some ten China
men being arrested. and they are being
held as we write. 1t is all very we'll for
Republican newspapers to acclaim Chief
Glass as the most unexampled official we
have ever had. But we notice that, un-
til the HERALD began its righteous cru
sade, everything was slipping along in
our police department in way that
indicated ''innocuous desuetude." Chief
Glass may be a paralyzer on the moral
perfection line, but the people would
rather see the laws enforced than listen
to lot of undeserved commendation of
that official. We notice that none of the
chiefs apologists or claqueurs have ad-
vanced any statute, by implication or
otherwise, under which that official can
justify his dispensing with an official
ordinance under which the Chinese
wash-houses should be closed, like the
saloons, at l2 o'clock at night.
