NO STRING TO HIS WIFE.
Major Twine Loses Spouse, Babies and
Coin.

Major Twine Loses Spouse, Babies and
Coin.
Major Twine is a Republican politi-
clan, not unknown to local fame, partic-
ularly in colored circles, where he is
sometimes regarded, and always repre-
sents himself to be. bright and shining
light.
The major is not unfamiliar with po-
lice affairs in the City of the Angels, and
heretofore all matters needing police in
reference, in which the major was in
terested, have been conducted with such
eclat, and brought to such spicy issue,
that the major had absorbed whole
some respect for the guardians OF the
local peace.
Yesterday Major Twine appeared at
the police station with very long face,
asking the aid of the chief to recover the
wife of his bosom, who had gone off, as
he was informed, to Salt Lake City !;
still more would he like to regain pos
session of the two children the errsnt
wife had taken with her; and yet, more
than all, he desired once more to handle
the 500 in cash, the property of him,
the said major, which had accompanied
the wife and babies.
Inquiry at the ticket offices revealed
the fact that Mrs. Twine had certainly
procured ticket to Salt Lake City, and
the chief advice to the disconaolate ma.
jor was, that he forthwith proceed to
Salt Lake City and bring back such por-
ton of the missing family and stolen
goods as he could induce to come, or
could conveniently carry. Further than
to give good advice, the chief positively
refused to interfere. ~

FOR THE FIRST TIME.
The New Ballot Law to Be Used on the
Sewer Bond Election.

The New Ballot Law to Be Used on the
Sewer Bond Election.
On Wednesday next, the 31st, will be
held an election, at which the electors
of the city will vote upon the question
of issuing bonds of the city to the
amount of 1896, 1000 for the purpose of
constructing an outfall sewer.
A somewhat elaborate system of sew
erage exists in the city, fully twenty
five miles of which has recently been
constructed with reference to such an
outfall as the one proposed, and nearly
all of which ia entirely useless without
the outfall.
The route of the proposed outfall has
been definitely located and contracts ems
tered into, go that there is now no ques-
ton of the ability of the city to secure
rights of way. The route is claimed to
be the best among the many suggested
for the reason that it is nearly straight
line to the ocean at the nearest
point, and runs through a section
of country which, will take the
largest amount of water per acre
for irrigation during the dry season.
1t seems to be assumed by the au-
thorities that all of the objections urged
against the bonds, and which defeated
their issuance on former occasion,
have been removed; and, go far as
known, there is no strong or organized
effort being made to defeat the bonds.
The election is the first to be held in
this city in pursuance of the Australian
system, and in accordance with an act
Of the legislature, passed at the last ses-
sion. The method of voting is very
complicated, and in such places in this
state where elections have been held
under it, fully 20 per cent of the votes
have been thrown out for failure to COM
plv with the law. AS there are no can
didates to be voted for on Wednesday,
it is to be hoped that voters will not
find it difficult to vote ''yes' or "no"
with accuracy.
Los Angeles herald., 1892-08-27
AN INSTRUCTIVE AND ENCOURAGING
ANALOGY.

There are certain political analogies
that are almost conclusive, and we
think that we have one in hand that
will be accepted as instructive by most
people. Nearly every one, whose mem
ory goes back for sixteen years, remem-
bers the presidential contest in which
Tilden, though elected, was cheated out
of the presidency by the eight to seven
bunco game. AS result of phenome-
nal campaign, in which every expiring
energy of the Republican party was put
to the test, under the supervision of the
grim Grant himself, when the result was
disclosed, Tilden needed only one elect
oral vote to be declared president, while
the Republican candidate, Rutherford B.
Hayes, needed nineteen-this exclusive
OF the votes of South Carolina, Louisiana
and Florida, which, really, one and all,
declared their preference for Mr.. Tilden,
with possible doubt as to the electoral
votes of South Carolina. There was no
possible moral doubt as to the seven
votes of South Carolina, because that
state was really under a military du-
resse, and the cap sheaf of the struc-
ture was negro domination. and under
such African leaders as the celebrated
Governor Moses, at that. Even Repub-
licans, however, now admit that Louis
lana and Florida went Democratic
against all carpet-bag and scalawag and
military domination; and that, conse-
quently, Mr.. Tilden was elected presi-
dent, with at least ten or eleven elec-
toral votes to spare, and with large
popular majority.
Now, we do not indulge in these
"reminiscences to recall the melancholy
eight to seven iniquity, in which the
manhood Of the American nation went
down. Our object is to call attention to
the fact that the Democratic tidal wave
of 1874 was strong enough to reach to
and insure success in 1875, if the eight
to seven fraud of that year had not
been contaminated. The popular SEN
timent in favor OF the Democracy that
year was SO strong that congress
which was three.fourths Republican
was converted into one that was two
thirds Democratic.
just here comes in the analogy. The
present congress, which isso overwhelm-
ingly Democratic in it's membership,
and which contains Democratic major
| ity of nine counting by states, was elect
ed in 1890 as protest against the Nc
Kinley bill, just as the Democratic con-
gress Of 1874 the forty-fourth congress-
was elected as protest against the
Credit Mobilier and the back pay steal.
The one popular wave lasted two years
and elected Democratic president.
The second will elect a Democratic pres
ident and will see him seated. "The
case being altered, that alters the case"
There is no longer any possible ma
chinery of fraud, thanked be the gods of
high and low degree.
Los Angeles herald., 1892-08-27

THE local officials of Los Angeles city
and county are law unto themselves.
Whatsoever appears to them to be right
that they propose to do. Their not al
ways judicious champion, the Express,
is always ready with Tweed's celebrated
formula, "What are you going to do
about it?" whenever any disclosures OF
official shortcomings are made. We are
afraid that the self-imposed task of de-
Tending the official malfeasance which
ramifies throughout every branch OF our
city and county government, will become
as onerous as it will be malodorous be-
fore the campaign is over. Thus far we
have only INDUCED in few ''feelers," /"
so to speak. 1t was General Putnam,
we believe, who advised his soldiers to
reserve their fire until they could see
the white of their enemies eyes. As
the fateful 9Th of November approaches
we ehall treat the taxpayers to conf
dences relating to the taxeaters that
will cause their hair to raise upon their
affrighted and disgusted heads like
quilts upon the fretful porcupine.
