This is Democratic year, and 1t W!il
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. Its
letter press will be devoted to accurate
descriptions of the city and county OF
Los Angeles and their leading indus
tries, and its advertising columns Will
tell of the development of business in
our midst. The merchants and bust
mess men of the city will be interviewed
by our solicitors, and we are confident
that they will respond literally. Ii
will simply be bread cast upon The
waters, which will return before the
lapse of many days.

THE SAVING OF EXCHANGE.

The recent increase in the shipment of
gold coin Colonial sovereigne) from Aus
tralia is beginning to attract notice. In
former years those colonies which derive
all their supplies of agricultural and
sewing machines from the United States
used to snip a great deal of pig tin
and wool to pay for them. Since the
Mckinley bill went into effect, Austria
liam wool has been practically excluded
from the American market, and there
has been proportionate increase
in the importation of fine cloths
and cassimeres from Holland, Sax
ony and Belgium, many of which
were made in the New England looms
before the prohibitory Mckinley tariff
on wool, designed to effect the vote OF
Oregon, Idaho and Montana-all wool
growing states-went into effect. Now
they are shipping us gold presumably
computed by weight instead of the
wool shipments OF former years.
The receipt of gold from Sydney in
August was trifle over $4,000. In
September it was somewhat in excess OF
a million. , In October it had gone to
trife under 81 800, 900; and bv the Mon
oval, which arrived at San Francisco a
fortnight ago, it was a cool 81 600 900.
As the commerce of San Francisco with
the ports OF Melbourne, Adelaide, Sgd
ney and Brisbane does rot reach one
tenth of those sums monthly, one
naturally wonders at the size of these
specie shipments, but they are easily
explained
England cannot produce her own
breadstufs, bnt imports largely from
California and Oregon. Australia has
no manufactures of her own worth con
sidering, and imports largely from Eng
land. Sterling exchange on London is
worth per cent in the four commercial
cities above named, except in January,
February, March and April, when there
are large shipments of ~ool to the
United Kingdom and when wool drafts
are always negotiable. But at this sea-
son payments have to be met with gold,
and instead of sending the gold all to
England, and thence back to the Pacific
coast to pay for breadstuffs, the Austria
lian banks ship direct to their CORE
spondents in San Francisco, thereby ef-
fecting saving of 80 days in exchange
It has proven very lucrative to those
banking institutions, up to date, and it
is, therefore, liable to be kept up for n
indefinite period.

A BOoTLESS DISCUSSION.

Our San Francisco contemporaries
have been devoting a great deal of at
tention during the past week to the
social evil. One of the peculiar fea
lures of the interviews which have
characterized the discussion of this
topic has been the very sanguine
opinions OF such men as Chief of Police
Crowley and Captain Lees of San Fran
cisco. The former official gave it as his
belief that seventy five per cent of
fallen women are recaimable if there
were any means by which they could be
assured refuge or maintenance during
their first efforts to lead virtuous life.
The great difficulty is to obtain anything
like a charitable and Christian treat
ment of the class of degraded beings
who fill the haunts OF vice. No one
seems willing to extend them an effec-
tual encouragement, the Salvation Army
being the only religious agency to
stretch forth helping hand to their
erring sisters, and, in fact, the only
organized body with nerve enough
to go into the abodes of vice and
reclaim their inmates. This is great
point for this association, aud will
tend to insure them much more
kindly feeling than has hitherto
been accorded to them. Fanatics
they may be, and their system may
be pervaded by strong flavor of crank
ism, but in this regard they show a
great deal of the spirit of the good
Samaritan of Chriet's parable. Their
institution at Beulah for the reception
of fallen women who desire to abandon
vicious life has been a great success.
A somewhat notable circumstance of
the interviews with clergymen on the
subject was their lack Of any suggest

daughters because he knew they would
spend it literally, and that it would
shortly be returned by them into the
common stock of the nation. That is
precisely what all American laws against
primogeniture and entail contemplated.
Properly carried out, it is the best way
of regulating too glaTing inequalities OF
fortune. 1t was the institution OF mort
main in England that enabRd Henry
VIII. to carry out his mammoth
schemes of spoliation. 1t is not too
much to Say that to the people OF the
United States in this nineteenth CEN
tury primogeniture and entailing OF
estates is as hateful as was mortmain to
the Englishman OF the sixteenth CEN
tury.
1t is an interesting question as to how
long the American people will allow
their institutions and laws to be juggled
with by deeds OF trust and pseudo-legal
papers intended to defeat the very in
tent of the law itself. 1t may be safely
assumed that spirit is growing
amongst the masses that will result in
peremptory enactments, whose force
will not be inv 'lidated by cunning quib-
bles. 1t may ultimately take the shape
of determining how much Of an enor-
nous fortune man may be permitted
to dispose of at his pleasure at his
death. The principle may be estab-
lished that all mans children shall
inherit equally of his property, unless
debarred on account of conviction for
some infamous crime. 1t is also debata-
ble as to whether graduated inherit
ance tax should not be q feature of our
laws which, when fortune exceeds ten
or fifteen millions of dollars, should
escheat all above the stipulated figure
into the treasury of the state, to be used
for the public benefit.
One thing is assured, and that is that
the ostentatious disregard of the law OF
entail and primogepiture will sooner or
later result in strict and coercive class
OF legislation that will make trickery
and legerdemain in the disposition OF
inheritances of no avail.

ions towards practical disposition of
the women who wish to lead cleanly
lives. For the most part, they exhibit
disinclination to consider that aspect
of the matter. Any great advance in
such reformation is blocked as long as
this II am holier than thou" feeling
prevails. Strange to say, the
most dificuls obstacle in the way
of reform is the merciless
way in which women of good repute pro-
scribe their unfortunate and erring els
ters. As long as woman herself main
tains this attitude the situation is al
most hopeless. OF course no woman
who is the head OF q household OF young
people could look without horror OF a
proposition to introduce therein any
person who had led life of prostitution.
But there ought to be enough charity in
a wealthy and Christian community to
establish reformatory institutions, where
the repentant sinner could be placed on
probation, and then sent to places
where they are not known and would be
judged by their conduct. As q prelim-
mary, they ought to be prepared to lead
useful as we'll as virtuous lives, and
should be taught in these establish
ments to cook, sew and perform the
usual household duties. Chief Crowley
gives it as his experience that women of
the town, when reclaimed, generally
make faithful wives, although it goes
without saying, that few men have
much inclination to cooperate in such
scheme of reform.
A striking contribution to the discus
zion was letter from fast woman to
the Examiner, in which she advocated
the creation of gigantic stock COM
pany, on the plan of an insurance COM
pany, towards which the prostitutes
themselves should contribute ten dollars
a month. They were to receive nothing
at their death; but, after cerrain
period of payment of dues, they were to
be entitled to a residence in some estab-
lishmsnt equipped with corps of
teachers OF music, cooking, sewing and
other useful branches, and in which they
might remain until qualified to under
take the battle of life with some hope OF
success. This suggestion is. of course,
Utopian, but, strange to cay, it is the
nearest approach to anything practical
that was evolved from the lengthy bab-
Element about the social evil and its

new to this state in the person of Mr..
Harry E. Reeves, whose professional ex-
perience in leading positions in England
and in New York has extended over a

a baritone voice of great power and
sweetness, which he uses with coneum-
mate skill. He sang solo at the offer
tory at the Unity church yesterday morn
ing, and the large audience listened with
evident admiration. The singer is a
nephew of the celebrated tenor, Sims
Reeves, and has filed positions OF great
responsibility in a musical way. He
will lecture tonight upon Voice Culture,
It's Teachers and Charlatans; Voice
Builders and Voice Wreckers, in the

TIE announcement that Miss Ada
Rehan, the actress, has been chosen to
pose for the Montana silver statue for
the Columbian worlds fair is accom-
panied by strong suggestion that the
distinction was paid for in hard coin,
the sum of $4,000 being named as the
consideration. Miss Rehan vigorously
denies that she paid or caused to be
paid anything for the compliment.
Mesdames Tanner and Tempest, shapely
ladies of the stage, say that they were
approached to pose on a money basis
and declined the honor. Jesse Bartlett
Davis also declares that che was inter
viewed on the subject and pleaded that
all her spare cash was to be devoted to
the erection of q new hen house and she
could not we'll spare the money. Be-
sides, she wanted to earn her salary.

nected with the Columbian fair. The
fordid aspect of modern American life is
suggested at every turn. A good deal of
public interest attaches to one phase OF
the Rahan posing. 1t appears that a
list of six defects in Miss Rehan's ply
sique has been made out, and the most
indeiatigable reporter has failed to get
copy of the document. This will be
great disappointment to the admirers of
the versatile actress. Her faults GER
tainly do not lie in the line of Bern
hardt delicacy of outline. The fair Ada,
like the fair Lillian Russell, is endowed
most literally with adipose tissue. The
artist who will cast the statue, however,
feels confident that he can make good
anything that nature may have left i'm
perfect. Ten thousand dollars is good
spur to invention.

THE OHIO LEGISLATURE,

The Toledo journal, an able news
paper Of opinions, owned and edited by
two Republicans, is out in a short
editorial denouncing the present Ohio
legislature as the most penal, extraVs-
giant and corrupt in the history of Ohio.
We print a few extracts from the
Journals critics just reflections:
"The recent session of the Legislature
at Columbus, offers perhaps the most
serious obstacle which the Republican
party will be compelled to surmount in
the approaching campaign. Cumbered
with a majority so large that it was
practically beyond control, the state
capital has been the scene of as much
vicious legislation as is known in the
history of the commonwealth Barely
escaping the efforts of the corrupt
street railway combine and lobby, there
were ground through bills and laws, for
the aid of private schemes and meas
ures, which must prove dangerous to
Ohio Republican rule. That the ninety.
nine year extension of street railway
franchises failed to become a law,
argues little for the dominant party.
1t did pass the senate, and, save for
great and furious revolt extending
throughout the state. had uuhaprily
passed the lower house. Nor, if COM
mon report be true, can this be said to
have been the sum of the errors of the
past session. Corruption is openly as
serted as having existed at Columbus
beyond compare, and the extent of
bribery and the sums alleged to have
been contributed for the shaping of
laws, surpasses belief. The ninety nine
year franchise law was but sample of
that which generally obtained last
winter, the exception being that the
promoters of this measure were caught
red-handed at the outrage"

THE DOcTORED KAN CARGO.

A Bundle of Intricate Junglesto Confuse
the Average voter-.-An Explanation of
the Intricate Scheme.
The new election law, which was
rushed through the legislature the clos
ing days of the session is very intri-
cate and confusing affair. The follow
ing summary of its more important
provisions, will help to aid the voter in
understanding it.
While the main form of the old plan
was maintained, radical changes are
made, not only in the system Of con-
ducting the elections but as well in the
form of the ticket and the manner of
depositng the ballot.
This is a subject of interest to every
elector and for their benefit the new
features in the system of voting and
holding the election are here given:
The county boards of election are
abolished and there are created the
offices of state supervisor of elections
and of deputy state supervisor, with
power of conducting and supervising
all elections held In the state. The sec
retary of state is made the state super
visor, and before the first Monday in
August, 1892, he shall appoint four
deputy supervisors for each county.
These supervisors are to be appointed
two from each of the leading two polit-
ical parties on the recommendation of
the county executive committees. In
counties containing cities of the second
class the boards of elections shall have
their usual authority and power except
that all the returns of the November
election shall be made to the deputy state
supervisors, and in addition toe board
shall, in the conduct of municipal elec-
tions, have all the powers and duties
and be subject to the penalties and re-
quirements of the deputy state super
visors. The county boards of super
vIsors shall select a clerk who is to be
paid 800 year.
These supervisors appoint judges to
be selected as follows: First, Ia every
township In which the trustees are not
all members of the same political party,
the trustees shall be the judges; second,
in every other township, except town
