ing in its own waters, whilst will be
over 5000 miles from it's nearest base OF
supplies. The invasion OF Chile by
land can only be done with safety by
very large army, and here again we
would labor under the disadvantage OF
the great distance OF our army from it's
base of supplies. An army of 100, 600
would perhaps be the smallest number
with which we could undertake to sub
due the bumptious republic. 1t will be
no small matter to transport and supply
such an army in hostile country 5000
miles away. We had better, if we are
going to engage in war with Chile, look
upon it as grave undertaking. Its
cost will be immense, and if the Chilean
navy should be reinforced by the Presi-
dent Pratt, the inequality of the two
fleets would not be great. 1t is not
case of spanking" we shall have to
look to, but one of verv hard fighting,
and we had better look the facts square
in the eye instead OF indulging in child

GARzA A PATRIOT. NOT A BANDIT.

The Cara revolution is now said to
have been brought to an end. 1t is evil
dent from the way in which this revolt
has exercised the Mexican government
and The energy which our own troops
had to display to prevent the revolu-
tionists from making American territory
along the Rio Grande a recruiting
ground, that, even as Insignificant as
this demonstration has turned out to
be, there is strong revolutionary
spirit existing in the northwestern
states OF Mexico. No satisfactory proof
has been shown that Cara represented
the church party or was backed by any
powerful faction in Mexico. Yet he has
been able to keep the frontier in tur-
moil for several months.
If.a mere outbreak of this kind, with
out organization and with no known
backing of Importance, could accom-
plish such results, what would be the
consequence of an uprising in which the
great dissatisfied elements of the north
ern departments would present we'll
organised front? We know from the
trouble the Cara revolt has given our
troops, that it would take a very consid-
cradle army, in such an event, to pre-
serve the neutrality of our Mexican
borders.
We can hardly believe, however, that
the Garxa episode is at an end. 1t is
undoubtedly symptom of the dissatis-
fed feeling Of a great element in the
Mexican republic with the Diaz admin
istration. Freedom of discussion, free.
dom of the press and individual freedom
are all under the cloud of a powerful
personal dictatorship in Mexico. AS to
the real condition of affairs in that coun-
try we can get better understanding Of
it from the Spanish-American papers
published this side of the Rio Grande
than from anything we can learn from
the Mexican papers.
Ell Hispano- Americana, a paper pub
lished in Socorro, New Mexico, devotes
space to the recapitulation of the politi
cal situation in Mexico, and atfirms that

INFLUENZA must indeed be prevalent
in London to lead to the omission of
the pageantry with which ROYALTY is laid
to rest. What in London and in Europe
is called 'infuenza" ls here known as
s'la grippe" In the moist and raw
climate OF England's metropolis the
epidemic is much complicated by pneu-
monia, which constitutes its real dan
ger. In Los Angeles the mildness of
the climate has reduced the perils aris-
ing from it very materially. Pneumonia,
even when it makes its appearance
here, is not fatal in one case where
twenty deaths follow upon its appear
ance in the east or in Europe.

Now that Edison has announced his
ability to defend his country from a
world in arms through the aid OF elec-
tricity, there need be no further anxiety
about our future. The great wizard
proves to be as patriotic as he s ingen.
ious and powerful in science, and the
lightnings squirted through an ordinary
hose. by his system, will enable twenty
five men to do the garrison duty of ten
thousand. With such power the story
OF Thermopyle would have read differ
entity. Dynamite, gun cotton and the
Eliminates are retired to a modest cor
ner, and "villainous saltpeter" is no.
where. In view of Edison's past achieve

should prove himself able to do exactly

SHALL BOYLE Heights HAVE A PARK ?

The council yesterday took action
which threatens to defeat the donation
OF parks to the city by Hon. William II.
Workman and Mrs. Hollenbeck on
Boyle Heights. The former had
donated IL 942 acres, which, including
streets, brought his total gift up to l5
acres. The gift of the lady amounted
to 7.7S5 acres, which, with streets,
brought her total up to 10 acres. These
were liberal gifts, which enabled the
city to secure a lovely breathing spot in
one of our most eligible suburbs. That
Los Angeles needs such parks scarcely
admits of doubt with any reasonable
person. As matter of fact, we have
been too remiss in securing them. We
have seen the fair domain once pos
sessed by the city in fee simple melt
away until the Westlake, Elysiau and
Sixth-street psrks constitute about all
that remains of it. The joint gift OF
Mr.. Workman and Mrs. Hollenbeck
comprises, with the streets. fullz 20
acres located in a most valuable part
of the city. There were two conditions
attached to the grant. One was
that the city should grade and
pave the streets surrounding the park.
This was surely in no sense .unreason-
able. The other was that the city coun-
ell should spend $4,000 yearly for two
years in improvements on the ceded
property. This, also, was fair condi-
ton. The first stipulation was resisted
by councilmen on the picayunish ground
that they were willing to grade and
pave only half of the width of the street,
the owners of property on the other side
being obliged to defray the other moiety
of the expense. The second stipulation
was regarded as inadmissible because
the council held that it could not bind
its successor to appropriate the second
$4,000. If this objection were held to bs
good in law, on a parity of reasoning the
Fifty-second congress, now sitting, has
no authority to provide for the paymen

by the Fortieth. It is puerile objec
ton, and unworthy the grave and rever
end seigneurs who sit in the city hall.
The question is, shall these munifcen
grants be allowed to lapse? The aver
age citizen would most unhesitatingl,
exclaim, 'emphatically not" Give VI
the parks. We need all we can get.

SENATOR TELLER's resolution, calling
for an, international monetary confer
ence, is likely to bear good fruit. It
now transpires that the senator was
aware, before he introduced the resolu-
tion, of the desire of the British Chan
cellor of the Exchequer, Mr. Goschen, to
have such conference called, and that
he would send English representatives
to it If the initiative were taken by the
United States. There is also assurance
that Germany will follow the lead of
Great Britain in this matter. There are
other members OF the British cabinet
besides Goschen who are convinced that
the best interests of the commercial
world require that silver should be re-
stored to it's place as money metal. At
the time OF the Barring collapse, when
the bank of England came to the rescue
in order to avert great financial
calamity, Mr.. Goschen drew attention
TO the fact that there was only gold
enough in all the English banks to pay
two and a half cents on the dollar OF
their liabilities and circulation. He
then said that the crisis passed through
bad shown Enthusiastically the necessity
OF fortifying the monetary system with
the addition of silver to gold as a legal
medium Of circulation II is therefore
very possible that an international
monetary congress might result in the
free coinage of silver in the leading
commercial countries of Europe and
America. This would solve the prob
