POMONA,
Re ecommendations by the Board Of Trade.

He commentators by the Board Of Trade.
Notes.
POMONA, May 3.-The board OF trade
met last Night with good attendance.
A resolution was passed extending a
cordial invitation to the Los Angeles
Farmers convention to hold its meeting
this month in Pomona, offering to that
body the usual courtesies, among which
will be grand citizens banquet.
An invitation was extended also to
the Southern California Pathological 60.
ciety to hold its October meeting here.
A resolution was also adopted express
ing the regrets of the board that our
city trustees had taken no active steps
toward providing the city with sewer
system, and urging the absolute impor-
tance to the town of a suitable sewer
system. The board realizes the fact that
while Pomona's natural location is IA
vorable to drainage, and the necessity
for sewers no greater, If as great as that
of other towns, yet all towns of the size
of Pomona need sewers as a means OF
proper sanitation.
The secretary was instructed to pre-
sent the city trustees with a copy OF the
resolution.
The city trustees meet tonight in reg
ular session. We understand that the
amendment to ordinance SO will be pre-
sented, but whether it has been pre-
pared we have not learned.
The Occidental Bichloride OF Gold
| institute will be open ready for the re-
ception of patients tomorrow.
| The Cobn trial began TODAY.
The rain of Sunday was supplemented
by heavy downpour last night aud to-
day. during which over two inches OF
rain fell. Considerable hay is said to be
damaged, but every one rejoices because
the benefits far outweigh the damage.
We were told today that the late
movement to curtail the city limits had
been revived. A committee has the
matter in charge, and one OF that com.
mittee informs us that meeting is tc
be called Saturday night to discuss the
proposition. Five hundred dollars have
been pledged to 'grease the Wheels" &c
to speak.
w. A. Vandigrift and family ar
rived today from the east and will make
their home in Pomona. Mrs. Vandi
grift is a sister of Mrs. E. E. Armour.
Mr.. Mertz of Sedalia, Mo-, is agar
with us. He owns some fne property
here.
Benjamin Ulsh and family leave to
morrow for their home in Bowie, Tex.
The ladies of the Universalist church
and their friends will give an experience
social in the church on Friday evening
A feature of the social will be the re
hearsal in rhyme OF how they earned O
saved dollar for the carpet fund. Ic
cream, cake, strawberries and lemonad
will be served. Miss Mariner of Pasa
dena Throop institute will read ant
Mrs. Andrews of Pasadena will sing.

it advocated and urged its friends to vote
for the Republican candidates. The
New York Tribune. on the day OF the
late election, said of the Journal
"Another cause which has operated in
'favor OF the Democratic party, has been
ssthe influence of the Providence Jour
''nal, which, during recent years, has
'taken strong ground against Repu oil.
'scan tariff legislation. A large body OF
independents or neutrals has been re-
"cruited, and few woolen manufactur-
ssers have strengthened the movement
ssby loud clamors for free wool. The
Republicans being deprived OF the cup
sport OF that powerful newspaper have
ssbeen placed at a marked disadvantage
sin educating the electorate on tariff
Questions. This year the Journal is
"throwing it's influence upon the Re-
publican side, albeit not on account
''of the tariff question"
At the last election for congressman
in Rhode Island the Journal advocated
the election of the Democratic candi-
dates because tariff reform was directly
involved, and they were elected. In
the presidential election next November
the Journal and its friends are sure for
the Democratic ticket for the same
reason. What is likely to be the result?
In this last election the Democracy,
with the Providence Journal opposing
them and battling for the Republican
candidates, reduced the Republican
plurality at the last presidential elec-
tion from 4439 to 2079, and its majority
then of 31Ss to 229 now. At the presi-
Dental election, with the Journal doing
battle for tariff reform and its candi-
dates, what will be the result? The
state will 60 Democratic.
The Republican papers rejoice at the
result of the recent state election, and
from it predict success at the presiden-
tial election without any reference to
the facts. Their extraordinary halloo-
ing over it is evidence of their determi-
nation to give their followers encourage
ment by senseless cry, which they
know they could not do by sensible
statement of the facts and figures.
These show that, at the presidential
election, the vote of the state will be
given to tariff reform and the Democratic
The addition of the four electoral
votes of Rhode Island to the Democratic
column is of small Importance COM
pared with the demonstration, by these
same facts, that the four last years of
ierce tariff discussion have begun to
oil on, the voters in the eastern strong

THE RAINS HAVE DONE GOOD.

We said yesterday that the rains OF
Tuesday night would do a great deal OF
good to the growing crops, whilst they
might be somewhat hurtful to the cut
hay. The writer made trip of observa-
ton yesterday to San Bernardino, and
found that the HERALD's prediction was
strictly true. There is more hay cut
than we had supposed; but as 1t is
nearly all cooked there need be no great
loss if the weather clears up soon.
We saw considerable grain lodged
by the heavy rain, but it will
with good weather get sufficient stand
to enable the farmer to successfully reap
it. As against these unimportant draw.
backs there is an immense acreage Of
grain that ia greatly benefited by the
rain. Some of it, that would never have
matured, will come to head and give a
satisfactory return. Wherever young
orchards were struggling against drouth,
the rains fell upon them like sweet
restorer. Indeed the orchards every
where, and of all kinds of fruit, were
greatly refreshed and helped by the
storm.
There are kind of people who seem
to delight in looking on the dark side OF
things. and who, whenever there is
room for doubt about the effect
of heavy rain or slight drouth
upon the crops, at once cry out that the
country has gone to the "demnition
bow-wows." These people were out in
force yesterday morning, and they filled
the air with their somber prophecies
Indeed, when the writer started out tc
take look at the rain effects in the
country, he was met on all sides by
these croakers, and entered upon his
trip in anything but hilarious mood
We were, however, coon compensated
for our trouble, for the country opened
up to us in most promising style. II
was evident before we had gone far that
the rain was blessing to many field:
!, and to every orchard; that the loss in
hay would be more than Offset by the
increased yield of barley and the greater
crop of wheat.
Of course we interviewed farmers al
along the route, and the general result
of our inquiries was to the effect tha
the rain would do great deal more
good than harm. But it needed not tt
be told this. A look at the country any
where showed it to be in excellent con
dition. We shall have good yield o
small grain, and Of all other products
we shall have season of phenomena
production. This section cap be relied
upon for more than average crop, ant
the year, on the whole, will be one o
| our best.

sideratfon.

Justice Austin Takes 1t Under Con-
sideration.
The examination of Wong Chez,
charged with the murder two years ago
of Tong All Lung, was continued yester-
day before Justice Austin, night ses-
sion being also found necessary to hear
arguments of counsel. The testimony
for the prosecution has 80 far failed to
develop any facts not hitherto brought
out in the cases of Wong XII Ling and
All Jung, both of whom are defendants
in practically the same case.
The claim of the prosecution is that
Wong Chez was present at the time and
place of the shooting and was a party
to the row. The defense claims an
alibi. Messrs. George j. Denis and @.
G, Stephens conducted the defendants
side of the case. At the conclusion ot
argument Justice Austin took the case
under consideration.

Mr.. EDWIN H. WOODRUFF, the librarian
of the Leland Stanford Junior univer-
sity, invites contributions of all matter
relating to the local history of the
Pacific coast, as it is intended to devote
special attention to such data, which
will be under charge OF professor ap-
pointed to supervise such department.
The materials, which will be gladly ac-
cepted, preserved and classified, include
all sorts of printed matter, books,
pamphlets, broadsides comprising
speeches, sermons, proceedings of asso-
Citations, legislative and other official
documents, and old newspapers. All
that is needed to insure proper atten-
tion to the donation of such material is
that the packages should be addressed
to the Leland Stanford Junior univer-
sity, Palo Alto. They should be confided
to Wells, Fargo & Co.'s express.

THE Stockton convention has declared

THE Stockton convention has declared
against free coinage. To break the force
of such declaration in silver state,
it adds proviso that the privileges Of
the mint shall be confined to silver the
product of American mines. Of course
this is nonsense of the rankest kind.
Silver is silver, and if it is in the coun-
try, what possible way is there to de-
termine where it was originally mined ?
Such subteriuge will impose on nobody.
The Republican convention has trihed
with the great question, and tried to
make straddle 80 wide that the party
will inevitably come to the ground.
If there is any state in the
union that ought to favor
the free coinage of silver, it is California.

state itself, but the silver of Arizona in
great part, and all the output Of Nevada
belongs to Californians. Indeed, the
silver of the whole coast is more or less
exploited by California capital. A poll
cy that tends to depreciate the value OF
the white metal by discrediting it in the
way that the gold bugs of Wall street
desire, win not prove palatable to the
people of California. The great silver
producing mines of Calico are closing
down on account of the low price to
which this metal has been reduced, and
thousands of men have been thrown out
OF employment. These men will be
heard from at the election, and the party
that aims blow at free coinage will cer-
tainly not receive favor at their hands.

SENATOR SHERMAN failed to kill the
Chinese exclusion bill yesterday, as re-
ported back from the conference COM
mittees. 1t had been so far amended as
to make it a more effective measure than
before by the addition of clause requir-
ing the Chinese to register, and with
holding the habeas corpus from persons
violating the law. With these amend
ments the bill will become law, if not
vetoed by the president, and there will
be lezs of farce about exclusion than is

The following from the Pittsburgh
Dipatch will be sad news to Mrs. Sheib's
many Wheeling friends:
Musical circles will be shocked and
grieyed to hear Of the sudden death
yesterday morning, from cryslpelas, of
Mrs. Anna Mellor sheib, sister OF Mr..

steal talent was shown early in youth,
iostered by the home atmosphere
and the best local instruction, and
brought to high development by some
years Of study in Boston, Leipzig and
Munich. After attaining prominence
as concert singer in Chicago and other
western cities, she settled in Canton,
O., where she remained in the front
rank OF that states vocal teachers for a
number of years. During the last two
years Mrs. Sheib has resided at the old
family homo in this city, pursuing mu-
sic simply for her own and her friends
enjoyment, Tho funeral will take place

pipe.
Yesterday afternoon at about 5 o'clock
very sad accident happened at BEN
wood, in which little child was choked
to death. The little girl was the only
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. ]. Newton,
and was about three years of age.
She was eating peanuts, when she was
taken with q violent coughing spell,
having the whooplng cough, and having
kernel in her mouth at the time, it
slipped down into the trachea. Her
mother, noticing her condition, imme-
diately seized the child and endeavored
to extract It, but finding her efforts UNI
availing, she shriekedfor help and sym
pathizing friends ran to the child's as
sistance. By this time the little one
was gasping for breath and becoming
blue in the face, when Mr.. Q. Bell came,
and taking the child in his arms, hast
ened to the office OF DR.. Haskins, which
was about one square of.
The kernel had slipped so far down
that the only hope, a very faint one, OF
saving the child's life was tracheotomy,
which was performed by the doctors,
but It was too late, and the little suf-
ferer expired at the doctors office, and
was born home cold and rigid.
At the time OF the occurrence the
father was in Moundsville, but was dis.
patched for Immediately. The mothers
grief was heart rending.

On Saturday afternoon silas Straight,
resident Of the First ward, fell to the
ground in front Of Welty's liquor store,
on Market street, and expired in a few
seconds. Paralysis OF the heart is sup
posed to have been the cause Of his
death.
At o o'clock Saturday night Joseph
Greer went down to the La Belle land
ing with his son. Complaining OF feel
ing sick he was carried to the hosting
station and DR.. j. Fl. Pipes sent for.
Mr.. Greer died in a few minutes. He
was over 70 years OF ago, IN old soldier.
and was highly respected by all who
knew him.
