A QUESTION OF PUBLIC MORALITY.

The HERALD at all times hold6 Itself
ready to accept reproof or criticism ten
dered in proper spirit, but we confess
that the lecture addressed to us by the
Express of yesterday fails to reach any
responsive chord. This journal has
dared to intimate, on what it regards as
amply sufficient cause, that in the fur
nishing of the court house and the
Whittier reform school the taxpayers
have been defrauded, and to express
the hope that the grand jury will in
vestigate the matter. Our own personal
opinion, which we do not press. is that
the $4,000 expended in furnishing the
county court house embodies an awful
extortion on the people who pay the
bills. live are right, the taxpayers are
being robbed and, as public journal,
we should be derelict in our duty if we
were not to call attention to this grue-
some circumstance. We regret to say
that we cannot look to the Express for
guidance as to the lines in which weshall
couch our remarks. There is general
feeling in this community that Governor
Markham should not have been in any
manner connected with the furnishing
of the court house or of the Whittier re-
ness IN the United States at large, of
late, at any connection of any public
officer with supplying the appointments
of any public institution. This opinion
has been crystalized in the charter OF
the city OF Los Angeles, under
which we are now living, and which
provides that no member of the city
council shall be interested in any form
or manner in any contract. When it
comes to governor, there is delicacy
expected in such transactions as fine as
gossamer, and which would forbid his
being remotely concerned in anything
that relste to- supplying the state or
county with any kind of material.
We can assure our contemporary that
the taxpayers are interested on two
grounds. Q) They will have to pay the
bills, directly in the case of the county,
and in contributory manner as re-
spects the state. (2) The people of Los
Angeles county as respects either or
both parties are interested in knowing
whether a strong political "pull" is to
be used to expand the bank accounts OF
those who possess it.
Even though every detail of the busi-
ness were as square as dice there is
something unpleasant and reprehensib
in the governor OF great state being in
terested in the furnishing of public
buildings. This idea would exist even
if the public were satisfied that the
prices paid were reasonable. On the
other hand, when they are apprehensive
that they are excessive, and that three
and four times what the work could be
done for is exacted, their Indignation is
without limit. This is cardinal prop
osition whose essential justice can be
dimmed by no amount of bluster.
Our esteemed evening contem porary
is kind enough to hint that the HERALD
is in danger OF libel suits. In the lam
guage of Paddy on substantially SINH
lar occasion, ''Thank you for nothing"
We assure it that, in the event of our
being caught in the meshes of the law,
we shall not apply to it for aid, but shall
pay our own expenses, like little
Dutch Uncle, as it were. The trouble
cannot begin too soon to suit US.

THE flower show of the Horticultural
society OF Southern California closed
last night. AS a display, from an ar
tistic point of view, it was great sue
cess. The pecuniary result was not as
satisfactory as it might have been but
for an unfortunate misunderstanding,
although it was creditable even in that
line. we learn from good authority.

The Uensu. Of Count es.

Superintendent of Census r. P. Porter
has issued bulletin showing the census

it looks as if Rock Island had not been

twice as great
