NEwPoRT NEWS, VA, February The
most sensational society event that has
occurred in this city for many months
transpired at a late hour last Saturday
NIGHT. when Captain George Fitcnett and
Miss Adela Warren were made man and
wife. The marriage was almost as much
of a surprise TO the contracting parties as
IL was TO their scores of friends, who talked
about nothing else all day yesterday and
wished them all manner OF happiness.

of the best families IN the county, but Is

the steptather of Miss warren objected to
her becoming the Captains wife. During

ms opinion concerning the matter with so
much force that tine young lady deter

genial Captain.
POPPED THE QUESTION.
This determination, it is learned, was
taken several days ago, but the crisis did
not come I'LL Saturday night. Then the

The case before HIM. The Captain, who IS

o'clock. at the residence of W. Scott Boyn-

At the Universal Exposition Of 1880 ct
Paris, France, the best sewing machines Of
the world. including those of America, were
in competition. They were passed upon by
jury composed of the best foreign mechan-

sewing machine manufacturers of France.
This jury, after exhaustive examination
and tests, adjudged that the Wheeler 3
awarded that company the highest prize of.

companies only gold, silver and bronze
medals.
The French Government, as . further
recognition of superiority, decorated Mr..
Nathaniel Wheeler, president of the COM

OUR CITRUS INDUSTRY AND ITS FUTURE

The orange crop this year all through
Southern California gives promise of
magnificent yield. This means great
deal for this section. Last year we suf-
fered greatly from a severe norther,
which knocked much OF the fruit off the
trees, and which was followed by dam.
aging froste. 1t is not too much to say
that this harsh dispensation OF the
weather clerk cost Les Angeles and
Southern California quite a million and
half of dollars, and that is great deal
to lose in q single staple. Extensive
observation in this and San Bernardino
and Ventura counties has satisfied ue
that, with an ordinary season, consider
ing the present promising state of crops,
we shall have the largest returns from
our orange groves ever recorded in the
history of this section.
AS Los Angeles county is peopled by
tens of thousands OF persons who know
very little of our past experiences, we
have thought it we'll that we should in
dulge in number of "reminiscences. In
thO LII 5b PitlCO1 We hafC hCNCl udo q oiJ
year since the memorable season OF
drouth of 1876.77. We have had several
partial dry years since then, but even
the state of New York has had three
years OF absolute drouth in that seven
teen years-drouths in which even the
Croton lake threatened to run dry. We
have had no agricultural disaster or
| drawback since then, with the excep-
tion of the harsh weather dispensation
of last fall. Surely we are warranted in
assuming that even the most perfect re-
gion of earth should look for an occa.
sional drawback.
The growth of our citrus industry has
been marvel. The quality of our fruit
has been the real explanation of the
marvellous growth OF this staple, which
is now in eager demand in all quarters
of the American continent. When the
editor of the HERALD was visiting the
New Orleans exposition he looked care
fully over the oranges that were on ex-
hibition there. He telegraphed back to
mis- paper that if the orange growers of
Southern California would only send on
representative display of their fruit
they would put the nose of the whole
world out of joint. His suggestion was
acted on, and the Riverside Washington
navels took the sweepstakes premium
and Southern California oranges swept
away come thirty-seven premiums all
told. This was competition in which
oranges from Sicily, from the West In
dies, Florida, and North and South
America took part, including Brazil,
from which we originally drew our own
Washington navel. 1t settled forever
the question of the superiority of our
oranges, and this means mine of
riches. To employ the language of DIR.
Samuel Johnson in describing Thrale's
brewery, it means for Southern Califor-
MIA, in the coming years, "wealth be-
yond the dreams of avarice."
Italy has for years depended on the
expectation of oranges for much of her

A DEEP-SEA HARBOR.

Whether the rumor that has reached
here to the effect that the board of en-
gineers who visited Southern California
two months since to select a site for a
deep-sea harbor have determined to re-
port favorably upon San Pedro, is true
or not, the grand fact remains that con-
gress ia committed to the construction
of a deep-sea harbor for Los Angeles.
This is made inevitable from the fact
that congress has appropriated several
millions to build harbor for deep.sea
vessels at Galveston. The shortest rail.
way route between ocean and ocean is
from Los Angeles to Galveston, and the
money appropriated for the latter har-
Dor could only be made to subserve its
most useful possible purpose to COM
merce by the construction of corre-
spondingly capacious harbor at LOS
Angeles.
AS far as this city is concerned its in
terests will be equally as we'll subserved
at whatever point the projected harbor
is selected. The main thing about
which we wish to be assured 10 the fact
that congress will make the appropria-
tion, and as there seems to be very little
doubt about that, the unlimited expan.
sion of our maritime commerce is only a
question of few years. 1t is very
likely that the Nicaragua canal will be
cut by the time we have secured the
projected harbor. This great enterprise
will bring Los Angeles 1000 miles
nearer to Europe by water than she now
is, and that fact will cut an important
figure both in the settlement, growth
and commercial prosperity of our sec
ton.
Everything is operating favorably for
Los Angeles. Her steady and rapid
growth is as certain as anything in the
future can be. In less than ten years
she will be one of the great cities of the
United States in population, wealth
and business.

TIE anxiety to learn how the election
had gone brought out an immense num-
Der OF people on the streets last night.
The crowd that gathered in front of the
HERALD Office swelled to prodigious p1o
portions as dispatches favorable to
Cleveland were displayed ON the stere-
opticon. The great crowd became en-.
thusiastic and sent out from their
throats cheers that made the night
vocal, as news came in that made every
body feel that another landslide for the
Democracy had passed over the. country.
Los Angeles herald., 1892-11-09

The Australian system worked very
smoothly and satisfactorily here yester-
day, and we heard nothing but express
sions complimentary to the new mode
of taxing the vote. Probably there are
defects in it which yesterdays expert
ence has shown; but the general work
ing of the system is such that any defect
can be easily remeded. The object of
secrecy in casting the ballot lie certainly
secured, and this alone is of iuestimable
value to the people. Vote-buying has
received its quietus by the new ballot
system
Los Angeles herald., 1892-11-09

THERE is but one conclusion to be
drawn from the avalanche of yesterday,
and that is that the people OF this coun-
try have set their seal of condemnation
upon all tariff policies that are designed
to raise revenue beyond the necessary
expenses of the government. A tariff
which is imposed for the purpose of en-
riching class at the expense Of the rest
of the people, will not be tolerated, and
the sooner the government comes back
to the true principle of taxation the
halter

NEVADA has realized the expectations
OF all parties by going for Weaver
Frank G. Newlands will enter congress
as a silver member and William M.
Stewart has probably insured his re.
election to the senate of the United
States. This adds one able man to the
house OF representatives and continues
one OF the half dozen of it's brainiest
and moat influential members in the
upper branch of congress. Democrats
will never forget that William M. Stew.
art voted for the confirmation of Hon.
l.. @. @. Lamar for justice of the
supreme court and against the passage
of the force bill. Senator Stewart, when
thus elected by the Peoples party, will
doubtless decline to group himself with
the Republicans any longer, and in
their present straights this will be a
great loss to that hard-bested organiza.
tion.
