ment Of interest only for three years, at which

lands, suitable for general farming. and es-
reciaily adapted for fruitrgrowing cannot be
had IN California for less than from $50 to
SlOO an acre. An examination of the land
subject of this advertisement will prove to
home-seekers that this is an opportunity for
the purchase Of good agricultural land at $40

agricultural land at SO an acre, on terms 81
payment which should make the disposition
of these lands to actual settlers result easy of
accomplishment.

holding for the purpose of promoting its set
tlement in smaller quantities and its devotion
to diligent husbandry.

THE NEW YEARS HERALD.

This is Democratic year, and 1t w!ll
be signalized by any number OF pleasant
things. Not the least of these Will be
the New Years edition OF the HERALD.
This publication will contain an ex-
haustive resume of the events OF
the past year, and will be scat
tered broadcast over the United
States. No doubt our patrons will, as in
the past, extend generous support to
this issue, OF which an unusually large
number of copies will be printed. lts
letter press will be devoted to accurate
descriptions of the city and county OF
Los Angelica and their leading indus
tries, and its advertising columns will
tell of the development of business In
our midst. The merchants and busl'
ness men OF the city will be interviewed
by our solicitors, and we are confident
that they will respond literally. 1t
will simply be bread cast upon the
waters, which will return before the

WANTED-A CITY MUSEUM.

Our eastern visitors are hocking in
here at the rate of 200 per day on the
southern roads alone, to say nothing of
the Chicagoans and Milwaukeans that
come down here from the bleak north
west, after having paid their autumnal
visits to their relatives residing on the
pine. clad shores of the Mediterranean
of the Pacific" These good people may
come out here again in this life and they
may not, hence it becomes our duty to
show them all we can while they are
here.
Ours is the most favored spot in all
the fair lands of earth. Ii has all the
rugged mountain scenery Of Switzer-
land and Northern Italy. without the
avalanches that destroy life and prop.
erty in those historic lands. 1t has all
the eensuous verdure of the great south
continent, without the poisonous rep
tiles and arid siroccos that have made
life in Australia go dangerous to the am
bilious colonist. Its coast line shows a
long, unbroken vista of marine beauty,
without the wall of agony and bereave-
ment that goes up from Barnegat. Glou-
cester, Noank or Marblehead when the
sails that start for "George's Banks"
fail to return to the anchorage by the
shore.
And yet we have no museum to show
to our visitors from abroad-the curiosi-
ties of this highly beautiful and exceed
ingly favored land. All that our east.
ern visitors can CLEAN of its manifold
beauties is what they can find at the
curio shops on South Spring street. The
chamber of commerce keeps up its dis
play of agricultural and horticultural
products, but there are thousand
things to attract the eye Of the touriet,
if gathered into a museum, which are
not exhibited there.
A city museum would cost our local
government comparatively little to start
and still less to maintain. The sum OF
$4,000 for the frat year and $1,000 per
annum for the next three years, would
place it upon such footing that it would
soon become self-sustaining. A small

THE old adage that it ia an i'll wind

Some ten or twelve years ago hand
some Canadian named Slaven kept
drug store under the Baldwin hotel in

canal got under way this gentleman
and his brother went down to the 18TH
mus and got dredging contract. The
canal is stranded project, but that is
by no means the case with the Slavens.
By dint OF strict attention to business
these enterprsing gentlemen managed
to pull ten or twelve million dollars out
of their venture. There is not much to
show for the work, but their bank books
have become quite plethoric.

HAS the Populist or Fusion legislator
proved himself to be great success
This becomes very interesting question
in view of the large ad ition to the
United States senate promised from this
class of statesmen. We confess we do
not see that any great results have fol-
lowed from the presence of such men as
Simpson and Watson in the house and
PETER in the senate. There is strong
movement to make the Populists, where
they have the balance of power, stick
out for the election OF members
of that party to the senate.
Under the circumstances, it would
be much wiser to assist in
the election Of good Democrats who
have signalized themselves by devotion
to the rights OF the masses. In that
way only, it seems to us, can this new
element OF our political family hope to
have any efectual voice in shaping leg
islstion. at least as far as the Fifty
third congress is concerned. This is es-
peeially true as respects the state of CAL
ifornia. Mr.. White should receive the
votes of the Populist members of the
California legislature, the resolutions OF
the Populist state central committee to
the contrary notwithstanding.

admission fee could be charged, which
would place the collection within easy
reach of those OF moderate means; and
the revenues of the place would coon
exceed the expenditures, with anything
like prudent management. There
should be board of trustees for tuch a
concern of. say, seven members, four to
be nominated by the mayor and con-
firmed by the council; and three to be
elected by the Southern California Sci
ence association. The latter would be
constantly on the lookout for novelties
to render the museum attractive, while
the former would be always ready to
protect the city's interest and see that
no moneys were iniudiciously expended.
Such system would BOON give us a city

THE tide of tourist travel to Southern

THE tide of tourist travel to Southern
California is beginning to be noticeably
large. All the signs indicate that it will
be greater than for any year since 1857.
The presidential election having been
satisfactorily settled, and four years OF
prosperity being thus assured, there is
no reason why those who can get away
from it should subject themselves to the
rigors of an eastern winter. Blizzards
are not very desirable when one can

strawberries and spring lamb garnish
