The Express says that the hanging OF
Torres by the meb at Santa Ana, is the
first hanging outaide the law that has
taken place in Southern California.
That is just about as near as that paper
ever gets to anything. A Frenchman
named Louis Lachenais, some time in
1870 or III, got into a dispute over a
piece of land in the suburbs Of this city,
with man named Jacob Bell, and shot
him while he.was running away from
him. The people (and there were
Frenchmen among them took Lachenais
out OF Jail and hanged him in q corral
that stood near Buena Vista and First
streets, and in broad daylight at that.

WATER AND Irs CONSERVATION

While Los Angeles can be maintained, ,
without dispute, to be the pioneer irri-
CATION county of the state, yet there is a
grave doubt whether her irrigation
facilities, even admitting their great re-
suits up to date, have been husbanded
with as good judgment aa those of her
sister counties, Kern and San Bernar-
dino. In the former county is to be
plainly seen the advantage of having
ariver draining the largest water shed in
the state, except those of the Sacra.
mento and San joaquin, the vast dome
of Mount Whitney being the source Of
the Rio Bravo, for the last forty years
known as the Kern, which for seventy
miles of its earlier existence flows
through vast glaciers, and drains i'm
mense tracts of springfield marsh land.
This stream has been partitioned off, as
/ it reaches the desert lands about Bak-
ersfi6ta, into canal system second to
none III the world for the engineering
skill that has made it capable of the
highest possible economy in the dis
trlbutlon OF water.
Over in San Bernardino, which was
for thirty years stupid and quiet old
Sleepy Hollow, resting calmly under the
Mormon incubus of its early settlement,
they have awakened to realizing sense
of what water signifies as source Of
wealth. They have begun on large
scale for distribution, when we re fleet
that their system includes no such
stream as either the Tuolumne or Mer-
ced, much less the Kern. All the ma
sonry work of their canal system has
likewise been done in substantial
style, indicating the full recognition Of
a permanent Investment.
On our table lies pamphlet from the
pen of F. @. Finkle, chief engineer OF
the Grapeland irrigating district, upon
the area and volume of Lytle creek,
which has, according to his estimate,
nearly double the watershed area of San
Antonio creek, that furnishes the basis
of reclamation for the Chino valley and
it's several colonies. Mr.. Richard Gird's
Whlcf buPpty 10 dll dAtCSlnu, uut ~ As
supposed to have come from the same
source, as his wells are located near the
mouth of San Antonio caf1on. The i'm
portance Of Lytle creek, which is pro-
nounced capable of reclaiming millions
Of now unproductive acres, is not to be
exaggerated.
We commend psrusal of Mr..
Finkle's pamphlet to all who desire to
become familiar with the growth and
progress OF of-irrigation in California, and
with the proper conservation of water
for purposes of reclaiming desert lands
by irrigation. 1t is well written book
and gotten up in astyle that will com
mend itself to all business men. 1t
treats upon subject that is just now Of
vital import to all landowners in South
ern California for, in the counties of Los
Angeles, Orange, Kern and San Bernar-
dino at least, water is king.

The World, OF q recent date, urges
that it will be great mistake if the
Democratic leaders shall concentrate all
their efortson New York. That journal
takes very sanguine view Of the out
look in the empire state, but it sees
most hopeful prospects in many of the
western states, such as Iowa, Nebraska,
Wisconsin, Illinois and Michigan. 1t
might very properly have included
California and the silver states in this
list. What was RAINBOW chasing" in
1883 ia now practical politics. The Peo-
ple's ticket is going to have very dis
astrous effect on the ''grand old party
in many and many western and north

Republicans were wont to strut about

That statement OF the Oakland En-
quirer, that the collapse of the fruit auc.
tion system in San Francisco is due tc
the commission merchants, is not fal
from correct. The new system gave
people chance to buy just what they
wanted, while the commission men had
q good thing both ON the producers and
consumers. There will yet be an upset
to that San Francisco fruit ring, ana the
suction syetem will come to the front
again; and it will stay in front there, a.
it has already done in Chicago and st.
Louis. Every abuse that has ever ex-
listed in this state, has ultimately
worked out remedy; and this exhaus-
tion of fruit producers by the tricks and
s'fakes" Of middle men, will be no ex-
ception to the general rule.

to the presence and prompt action of q
large crowd. They were caught and
carried ashore at their very first outcry
for help. George Frank, of Portland, !,
Oregon, was the best swimmer / ever
saw and yet he was drowned at the

of bis leg to get him into his coffin.
Cramp is the most ir rsidious of all foes.
1t cripples the best of swimmers, and at
