In sleeps bright world of dreams Away;
think 1t would be sweet to skip
From that world to the further shore,
To be unconscious carried DER,
And never hear the paddles dip.
Those wide, wide plains I've often trod
The seft light on the emerald sod,
In dreams fair realm ideal,
The lofty mountains rugged brow,
Cloud.wrapped, and torrent-lashed below
How sweet to find them reall
And sweeter far to find that those
Who come when eyelids nightly close
Have come to ever stay;
Not like the brightly mirrored beam
OF moon or star in forest stream,
To pass at morn away.
Yet, o my Godi without jar
hasten from that world so far,
To meet this glad earth's dawn;
And, strangely, do not feel regret
That the dear faces have met
Must be a while withdrawn.
Dear Lord I love to think that sleep,
Through which bright visions noiseless creep
A foretaste ls of heaven
A sort of outskirt dim and wide,
Whose portals to the glorifed
Thy holy love has given.

When dad has worn his pants two years
They're passed to brother John;
Then mother trims them with the shears,
And William puts them on.
When Williams legs too long have grown
The trousers fail to hide 'em,
So Walter claims them for his own
And slows himself inside 'em.
Next, Sans fat legs they close invest,
And when they won't stretch tighter
They're turned and shortened, washed and
pressed,
And fixed on me-the writer.
Ma works them into rugs and caps
When | have burst the stitches
At doomsday we shall see perhaps
The last of dads old breeches.

hundredth time, in the history of the
potato business in Los Angeles county.
For some time past our commission
merchants have noticed an almost entire
cessation Of the large shipments OF epuds
which they were accustomed to handle
from the Chinese, and they naturally
made inquiry as to the cause of this
falling off in their transactions with
their Celestial customers. AS a re-
suit it was discovered that an enterprie-
ing Mongolian named Mr.. All Ach En-
Cow had looked into the possibilities of
the matter, and that he had corralled
all the Chinese shipments OF potatoes to
the east. He has established headquar-
tiers in Chicago and has made the Windy
City his great distributing center for
spuds. He ships exclusively over the
Santa Fe route, and has lately built up
q colossal trade. AS the transactions
amount to thousands of carloads yearly,
it will be seen that his opportunities for
turning the nimble dollar are large.
Nearly all the potatoes which have been
grown il Los Angeles county this year
have been raised by Cinnamon.

Decaying Customs.

"The observance of Old World anni-
versaries and customs is rapidly becom-
ing less marked in this country" said
an old New Yorker. ut seems little
singular, too, that the more the immi-
grafton the quicker and more thorough
ly the amalgamation. / remember the
time when st. Patrick's Day was made
the occasion Of the greatest street dem
onstrations ever seen in New York
from one years end to another. The
entire city, participated in measure,
and the streets were scenes of turbulence
and wild hilarity from early morning
till late at night. A good many now
living remember the big rows that oc-
CURED in those days. OF recent years
all that sort of thing has disappeared.
'The annual st. Patrick's Day parade
has dwindled down here to mere formal
tiles and lacks the element of enthu-
siasm. In many American cities it is
no longer even formally observed by the
mass of Irishmen. In other respects the
same thing may be said of other nation
alities. A few dozen persons will make
a pretext of the queens birthday or the
Bastile day, or something Of that kind,
to help out a pleasant evening, but there
is no longer any seriousness to it. All
we usually see is some signs of a holiday
among the Chinese, the Italians, the
French or some other nationality, most
ly confined to their respective neighbor-
hoods. The fact is this country is get
ting too big and too important for such
things. New York Herald.

We WARN the board of park commits
sioners that they cannot afford to allow
the generous donations of land of Mrs.
e. Hollenbeck and ex-Mayor Workman
for public park :purposesmto lapse by
failure to comply with the conditions of
the donors deeds. The council has done
its part wisely by accepting the property
and furnishing the money to improve
the came, and it now remains for the
park commissioners to do their duty and
90 to work. The public have an interest
in this as well as in the other parks of
the city, and the commissioners will be
derelict in their duty if they ignore the
rights of our citizens in this matter.
We understand that Mr.. James G. Kays,
one Of the commissioners, favors i'm
mediate compliance with the terms of
the gift deeds. Why hesitate in mat
ter of go great Importance to our entire
city? Parks are breathing places, and
the more we have OF them the better.

INTEREST in the outcome of the Min
neapolis convention is not lessened by
the declaration OF Senator Hiscock as to
Blaine'a position. Day before yester-
day the Mew New York senator saaid that he
was for Harrison because he saw no rea-
son to believe that the Plumed Knight
would make the race. Yesterday, how
ever, Hiscock called on Blaine at the
Fifth Avenue hotel and, on being ques-
toned by reporters and others after the
visit he said he had no doubt that
if Blaine were nominated by the Mime
apolis convention he (Blaine) would &C.
cept. The head that is shaded by

in any mine marked him out as q

feet of such a.system has been to anni-
hilate speculation in stocks, and, to d.
rect the attention of capitalists to other
fields of investments. 1t would be hard
to estimate the drawbacks to the min
ing industry which have accrued from
this reckless and unprincipled admins

plotting the mines at great depths
when there were untold millions in ex-

THAT corporations are not to have

stockholders OF the Hale and Norcross
mine OF over one million dollars. The
defendants were the managers OF the
Hale and Norcross and Nevada mills.
There has practically been unlimited
juggling in the control of the mining
companies of this coast. Stockholders
have been supposed to have no rights
which manipulators, who had captured
the directorates OF mining companies,
were bound to respect. The revenues
of principalities have been absorbed in
the peculiar hocus-pocus which has for
years controlled all interests that CEN

WATrERsoN'S VICTORY.

The influence which great editor can
exert in the prism in which his journal
would naturally be supposed to affect,
was shown in a striking manner day be-
fore yesterday by the complete ascend
ancy which Henry Watterson succeeded
in asserting over the Kentucky Demo
cratic state convention. He was, Of
course assisted in his triumph by the
fact that the "dark and bloody ground"
had a candidate OF exceptional promi-
nence in the person Of Hon. John G.
Carlisle. But, even with this promis-
ing starter, Mr.. Watterson and his Louis
vile Courier-J ournal stand forth as a
great power. THERE'S, of course, nothing
new in this. Mr.. Thurlow Weed and
his Albany Evening Journal for years
controlled the Whig party of the United
States. and after the organization of the
Republican party Mr.. Weed was one of
it's most potent factors. But for the
influence of another great Republican
editor, Horace Greeley, Mr.. Weed would
have had the great satisfaction of hav-
ing made Mr.. Seward president of the
United States, as he had undoubtedly
made William Henry Harrison, the
original of the grandiather's hat, in the
old Whig times. Greeley, as a dele
gate from Oregon, had the su-
preme delight of beating Sew
ard and nominating Lincoln. Whether
Mr.. Watterson's potency will extend
beyond the boundaries OF his own state
remains to be seen. He has certainly
made beginning in the Warwick line
which demonstrates that if the pen be
not mightier than the sword, pen and
tongue together, when so strongly and
pleasantly combined as in the person Of
the great Kentucky editor, certainly
count for great deal. 1t is generally
conceded that Mr.. Watterson wrote the
Democratic national platform OF 1888,
on which Mr.. Cleveland went forward
to defeat. 1t is to be hoped that
if this versatile and brilliant gen.
tleman gets on the committee
on resolutions this year, which
is very likely event, he may be associ-
ated with other members who will have
an oblique eye on securing the votes of
the American workingmen. They come
in handy when it gets down to reckon
ing up the results at the polls. A care
full scrutiny of the platform of 1884, on
which Mr.. Cleveland was elected, might
not be amiss in this connection. Wat
terson would at any time rather press
his views to an extreme and 60 down
in defeat rather than throw in plank
which would rally the masses to the
support of the party.

We FIND thesfollowing dispatch in the
Stockton Mail, dated at Washington,
May 25th, and sent through the United
Dispatch association. As it throws
some Light on matter which has been
the subject of some discussion of late,
we reproduce it:
Senator FELTON, said today: "There is
not one word of truth in the report tele-
graphed to a Sacramento paper from Los
Angeles alleging that signed an agree
ment not to be a candidate for the sem
ate in March next against De Young in
consideration of the support given me
by the latter at the last election"

EATING CROW. FoRsoorH.

A. favorite amusement of those who
have very little punctilio about any,
thing consists in accusing gentlemen
who have pronounced views upon men
and measures of "eating crow" when
they show any signs of deferring to the
opinions of their fellow citizens. 1t is
well-known circumstance that, prior to
the meeting OF the Fresno convention,
and since, for that matter, the editors of
the HERALD have had grave doubts
about the wisdom of the nomination of
Mr.. Cleveland by the Chicago conven-
ton in view Of the situation in
New York, and Of other circumstances
which in no whit reflected upon
that distinguished gentleInan's career as
q statesman or worth as man. One of
them having been nominated as an
elector-at-large-an honor which no
Democrat could fail to appreciate-he
was thought by some Inconsiderate per-
sons to have eaten crow in accepting the
compliment, and this in spite of the
fact that the HERALD has said from the
opening of the discussion as to pres
idential possibilities that if Mr.. Cleye-
land were the choice of the Chicago con-
vention it could and would support him
with great cordiality and earnestness.
The incident which placed one of the
editors of the HERALD at the head OF
the state ticket ia thus correctly de-
scribed by Mr.. Fl. W. Patton, the editor
of the Banning Herald, gentleman
who was unanimously sent to Chicago
from the Seventh congress district of
California.
Joseph D.. Lynch OF the Los Angeles
HERALD received the most honorable
position within the gift of the conven-
tion-that of elector at-large. Mr.. Lynch
has been a pronounced anti Cleveland
man, notoriously so, and when in accord
ance with an unwritten rule of the con-
vertion he was called to the platform to
declare himself. his friends wondered
what he would say. He delighted every
body by making graceful little speech
reciting the fact that he had supported
Cleveland Loyalty in two previous cam
paigns, and in case the ex-president was
nominated this year he would be found
fighting on his side. If Cleveland were
nominated he would say to him:
master lead on. and will follow thee,
To the last gasp, with love and loyalty"
1t was graceful speech, with no sug-
gestion of eating crow in it, and Mr..
Lynch was heartily applauded by the
convention.
1t is q queer rule which restricts a
Democrat to but one choice amongst
Democrats, or which would suppose him
to eat crow when he recognizes the right
of the majority of his party to choose, il
they 60 desire, so distinguished leader
and patriot as Cleveland to be their
standard bearer.
