TAXPAYERS SHOULD BRACE THEM
SELVES. sttSE

Our taxpayers will shortly be called
upon to brace themselves. If we are
correctly informed, Statesman Aaron
Smith is about to make demand on the
board of supervisors for $4,000 for nego-
tiating the 100000 worth of bonds
which were taken by the state board of
examiners, as an investment for the
state, at five per cent. premium. It
is understood that Chairman of the
Board Perry has been heard to say that
this sum ought to be paid, and that Aaron
has said it must be paid. We merely
tell the story as twas told to us, and
thereby hangs tale. 1t is understood
that the old board made tacit agree
ment with the Los Angeles Furniture
company whereby that enterprising firrn
were to negotiate the sale of 5000, 900
worth OF these bonds, taking as their
compensation the privilege OF furnishing
the new court house, out of which they
were to compensate themselves, there
being, presumably, profit of ten or fif-
teen thousand dollars in this
llbtlC DuSlucSs tIdISdCtlOu. AS q
matter of fact, the Messrs. H. II. Mark
ham and E. P. Johnson really nego-
tiated these bonds, and we presume that
the Los Angeles Furniture company, an
excellent home institution, will reap
the benefit involved in an extensive con-
tract of that kind. Aaron had nothing
to do with the negotiation. els side
show.
Now what the people of Los Angeles
are interested in knowing is whether
the advertisement under which the
Cleveland capitalists took the whole
volume of the bonds at premium of
five per cent, was purposely 6ungled in
order to admit of discreditable job at
the expense of the taxpayers? We do
not know whether there will be riot if
this infamous claim should be presented
and allowed, but we know that there
ought to be. We shall see what we shall
see. Bismillah! Marshallah! In the
name of the prophet, figs!!

Tho whip Dance.

Indians frequently, after engaging in
the whip dance, vow that they will never
more submit to the ordeal, and mutually
assure each other that their skins. have
been made to suffer for the last time.
But an irresistible longing soon seizes
them to again realize the fearful joy of
indulging in the sport" and the result
is that the dance continues as fashion
able as ever. The young men of the
tribe then, having put ON all the finery
they are able to muster, arm themselves
with the terrible maquarri-a peculiar
whip from which the dance derives its
name. This whip is about five feet in
length and is manufactured of a strong
grass fiber native to the district, bound
around spirally with a strip of thin cane.
In the hands of q muscular Warau it is
capable of infiicting a wound very little
less severe than that which would be
produced by tho downward blow of
knife.
When the dance is about to commence
the performers range themselves opposite
one another, waving their whips in the
air and giving utterance to cries resem-
bling the notes of birds. Suddenly one
of them stops, and poising himself on
one leg stretches out the other, remain
ing perfectly motionless The other
stops, too, measures the distance care
fully with his eye, springs high in the
air to give force to the blow, and, wish!
down comes the heavy whip with a
fearful smack upon his opponents out
stretched limb, and red cash marks
where the keSn thong has curled round
his calf or ankle.
The recipient of the blow utters never
a sound, but, smiling as cheerfully as
possible under the circumstances, again
takes up the dance until it is the turn of
the other player to stand still and re-
ceive his punishment, which, we may
depend upon it, is usually returned with
as good will as it was given.

OIL AND OTHER RESOURCES,

The great agricultural interests of
Southern California have overshadowed
two wealth-producing factors which are
daily increasing. Reference is had to
the development of oil fields and mines.
OF the latter, investors are naturally
shy, in consequence of the many thin
ble-rigging practices in their manipula-
ton, but the late discoveries in the Orc
Grande district prove that our mines
are as rich as our fields.
In the oil fields of Los Angeles, Ven
tura and Kern counties, capital is find
ing safe ard profitable investment; and,
in consequence, development is active.
The HERALD of last Monday contained
an account of q wonderfully varied de-
posit of minerals on oil-bearing land in
the last named county, and alluded par
ticularlyto the presence there OF alum,
sulphur and kaolin. This article caught
the eye OF manufacturing chemist of
New York, who was in the city,
and the consequence is that he mas al
most decided upon erecting works here
for producing the articles mentioned in
their commercial form.
The newly discovered use of the re-
siduum from oil refining, as ink for the
use of printers and engravers, has al
ready been extensively commented on
by the HERALD.
Another feature OF this industry which
is fast assuming mammoth proportions
is the use of asphalt as lining for res
ervoirs, and also in making water pipe,
production which it can easily be seen
will find an almost unlimited market
right at home.
The growth OF all these things in the
face of the fact that the cost of fuel here
is prohibitive, except where the profit
from manufacturing is immense, is in
itself sufficient comment on the returns
enterprise and capital can safely count
on in this land OF riches.

TROUBLE WITH HIS WIFE

many hours.
The chambermaid, who slept in the
next room, told the reporter that she
heard the deceased walking up and
down the room as late as O'Clock in
the morning.
An examination of the room showed
that the deceased had first attempted to
shuttle of the mortal coil by opening a
blood vessel. The basin was full of
blood. This method doubtless proved
too slow, whereupon the determined
man hung himself.
The deceased was about 30 years old,
and left a couple of letters stating his

WITH three millions OF dollars in the
course of being spent on the Terminal
railway, and an equal sum, in all likeli-
hood, upon the Belt Electric railway, it
may be assumed, without fear of con-
tradiction, that there is more activity in
the line of public Improvements in Los
Angeles just now than in any city west
of st. Louis. Turn in what direction we
may, there is nowhere to be seen eviden-
ces of such prodigal outlay of money
on projects that necessarily mean de-
velopment. The enormous power house of
the Belt Electric road, adjoining the
Arcade depot, is making rapid progress.
1t will be, with one or two exceptions,
the largest plant in the United States.
Seventy-ive thousand bricks day are
being laid by the masons. Meanwhile
the workmen are busy at the corner OF
Spring and Second streets making the
proper connections for the road-bed and
the rails are being strung out along the
line. Everything indicates quick work,
and the company promise to have the
line running to Westlake park by the
1st of July. All this means good sum-
mer for the workingman.

In SAN FRANorsco the Golden Gate
concerts take place on Saturdays and
Sundays. Our Westlake concerts are
given on Thursdays and Sundays. A
great many Angelefios think that a
change to the San Francisco plan would
be an excellent idea. One of the most
pleasing features of these concerts is the
outing they give to the children, and on
Thursday the young ones are at school.
1t has become largely the fashion to
give half holiday on Saturday, which
would enable another large class of our
people to avail themselves Of the enjoy
able programmes rendered at the park

THERE is good reason for widespread

Incompetency and venality seem to have

of the one are so identical with those of
the other that it cannot be specified
which is supreme. Either, in public

THE triumph of the citrus carnival at
Chicago is great thing for Los Angeles.
1t has struck the people of the Lake
metropolis between wind and water, SO
to speak, and has extorted their un-
stinted admiration. 1t is safe to say
that an exhibition at once so unique
and original has never been witnessed
before in any line of horticulture. Those
who attended the citrus fair here-and
who did not-were attracted as much
by the originality of the designs as by
the prodigality of the fruit display.
These artistic effects have been repeat
ed and expanded in Chicago, and they
seem to have excited a genuine enthu-
siasm. That much good will accrue to
this section from the venture cannot be
doubted. A small admission fee has
been charged and the enterprise bids
fair to be self-sustaining.

remedial effects upon myself of California
Fruit Syrup. had been keen sufferer from
Constipation and Piles for 15 years or more,
and had never been able to derive any per-
manent benefit from the various preparations
used for alleviating and curing troubles of that
nature. About the lst of December last pur-
chased bottle of your medicine and before 1t
had all been used, began TO feel its good effects;
a second bottle helped the difficulty so much
that third and fourth were successfully used,
with the result that nearly normal condition
of the system has been restored and general
health and weight much improved. Your
syrup is the most pleasant medicine have
ever taken, and being tolerably well acquainted
with the nature of its several ingredients, do
not hesitate in saying that a better remedy for
the disorders named cou'd scarcely be com
pounded. AS l was the first man to purchase

beneficial results derived from its use. Hoping
