THERE is great suffering in Mexict

THERE is great suffering in Mexico,
just across the Texas frontier. for want
of wholesome food. Now is the oppor-
tunity for our more thrifty and fortu-
nate descendents of the Mexican foun-
ders of this state to show their liberal
ity. Let each one of the five southern
counties--V Ventura, Los Angeles, San
Bernardino. Orange and San Diego
send carload Of bayo beans to the re-
lief of their unfortunate relatives.
-Four pounds of corn per week, to each
adult person, is all they get, and deaths
from diseases created by hunger are
very frequent. Our belief is that If a
proper showing were made to Mr.. Hun
tington, he would give free transporta-
tion to five carloads Of provisions for the
relief of those unfortunate people. His
company is rich and can afford to be
liberal.

THERE is an excellent chance for the
millionaire, Carnegie, to show how
much be thinks of the laboring men of
America. Let him cease importing
tramp and pauper laborers from the
south of Europe, as he has been doing
for years. Recollect how the brutal
Huns cut the fingers off the corpses at
Johnstown to get their rings. These
were fair sample of the laborers i'm
ported by Carnegie ct al, for the past
twelve years; and it is safe to say that
out of the hundreds of filthy paupers
brought into the state Of Pennsylvania,
to take the bread and butter out of de-
cent laborers' mouths, Andrew Carnegie
has imported three to any other mans
one. And this man was the apostle of
high tariff legislation on the stump in
1888 and the bosom friend of Harrison.
If you want more Carnegie foundries
and more riots, vote for the Republican
nominee, Harrison, whose connivance
at violation Of our immigration laws
made such results possible.

THE POLICE COMMISSION.
COMMISSIONERS SNYDER WILL TELL
WHAT HE KNOWS.
An Interesting Session Expected At the
Next Meeting-Mr. snyder Said
to Have His List Ready.
A'Precedent.

Tommorrow the police commission
will again take up the matter of gam
bling in Chinatown. This, at least, was
was what it was resolved to do at the
last session of the commission. Com
missioner Snyder will be called upon to
give to the board, the names of the par
ties who intimated to him that some
police officials and certain members of
the commission were, in their opinion,
getting money for not suppressing the
tan games and the lottery games in Chi
natown. Commissioner Snyder, it is
understood, will undoubtedly have the
names ready.
The city attorney will also give the
commission advice as to their powers
and authority to compel the attendance
of and to swear witnesses, and take tes-
timony, as requested at the last meet
ing. Some of the commissioners at the
last meeting. it will be remembered, got
very indignant because Commissioner
Snyder introduced resolution direct
ing the chief to suppress gambling in
Chinatown. Commissioner Snyder now
cites as a precedent for his action the
following order, which was sent out bv
a former commission when stories were
afloat that come one was making neat
sum out of the Chinese gamblers:
Los ANGELES, June IL, 1888.
Captain of Detectives.
DEAR SIR: You are hereby directed,
until further orders of this board, to de-
tail Detectives Flickner and Boland for
special duty under the board. Officers
McGrath and Auble, who will be de-
tailed by the chief of police for the
same purpose, will report to you. You
will place Detective Flickner in charge
of the party, with instruetionss to at
once, without fear or favor, suppress
every species of gambling in this city.
The four men designated herein are to
be under the control of this board until
further orders.

no diversion at all about it, go far az

the only diversion is being made by the
Republicans, who speak of it as a thing
of the past, but let them once get clear
majority in its favor in both houses.
with Republican in the executive
chair, and, they will only pass it too
quick. Stanford would not vote for it,
nor Stewart either. although the latter
feels sore against some of the southern
ers for their behavior on the silver bill.
The force bill is, as Senator Stanford
has told more than one of his
friends since that time, "the stepping
stone to monarchy" Once make it
the law of the land and republican
form OF government is blotted out for
ever. When a dilemma presents itself
as this has done and is doing, the safest
way out of it is always the best; and
the only safe way out of this is in the
election of Grover Cleveland to the
presidency.
Mr.. Harrison wants to be president,
and it requires the vote of New York to
elect him. Once pass the force bill and
the industries OF the south will be
paralyzed. The New York mer-
chants and fnanciers know this,
and hence they do not de-
sire any such legislation. The bankers
and brokers of Wall street know that
the force bill. if it becomes law, will
throw every southern railroad into
bankruptcy. Hence they will not sup
port Harrison if he sticks to his pet
measure.
The best way for them is not to stick
to him at all. Benjamin Harrison is
man of the type of Schuyler Colfax, who
did the biggest political business on the
smallest capital of any man in American
history. Take away from him the
environment of prejudices arising from
the civil war, and he will sink to the
bottom Of the political pool like lump
of sugar in teacup. 1t is an off-year
for "Little Breeches" in politics.

HARRISON AND rHR FORCE BILL.

People ask us if the president will
"call off his dogs" and attempt, in the
hope of breaking up the ''solid south, p
to squelch the force bill,' which has
hitherto been his stock in trade. We
doubt it very much. Knock the force
bill ont of this canvass and Harrison
would not have single issue on which
to make fight.
One might as well expect Mr.. Glad
stone to abandon his pet measure of
home rule for Ireland, as for Harrison
to uproot the seed he has sown in the
force bill. 1t is sequence to .'the
bloody shirt Of former Republican
campaign oratory; and If the radicals
abandon it they will have no founda-
ton for campaign except the tariff, Of
which they are certain to get the worst
in every Atlantic seaboard state.
This infamous measure had Gear
Reed for its stepfather in the house,
which passed it by strict party vote.

ators are men Of bigger caliber than
such fossils as Dawes, of Massachusetts,

ators was Stewart, Of Nevada, and the
other was Leland Stamford. They had
already become tired of the party lash,
and had signified that plainly enough in
the confirmation Of Lamar, as justice
of the supreme court. So the bill died
right there, but it's advocates are now
trying different sort Of tactics.

WHAR am de kull'd br'er in dis yer

the Democratic ticket? The recent
state election in Alabama would make
it appear as though neither party held
q mortgage on the vote of the un-
bleached American. The Republicans
OF that state put up mixed ticket, 80
far as complexion was concerned, but it
failed signally to solidify the colored vote

DIR. VINCENT, the brutal Fresno physi-
clan who killed his wife and is now very
properly under sentence of death for
that offence, has petifioned the supreme
court for a rehearing Of his case. He
claims that he was insane from the
liquor habit at the time OF committing
the offence, and therefore not liable for
what he did. If the supreme court
has any correct idea of iuEtice, it will

Drs. Allen and Wilson. of the Surgical
Institute. have received an offer from the
town of Pullman, O suburb of Chicago, 20
remove to that city. The exact nature of
this offer has not been disclosed. but it Is
understood to be in some respects q temut-
ing one. and Dr. Allen has gone TO Chicago
to look over the ground.
A Journal reporter yesterday asked DR..
Wilson if he and DIR. Alien were seriously
considering the subject of removing to Chi
cago. In reply he said that the matter
would be looked into and considered In all
its bearings; that there were some reasons
favoring o removal and others that favored
their stay in Indianapolis. 1t was sug-
gested by third gentleman who was pres
enr that the recent disaster could not have
failed to bring to their attention the fact
that while they had some antagonism they
had, on the other hand, many warm friends.
and that this community could i'll afford to
lose an institution that had constantly
under treatment from $50 TO 300 patients,
each Of whom would leave in the city from
$10 to $l2 week.
