Getting the Better of School Boy.

In the management Of the indolent

so much money it would do all of lite's

himself more than he liked, even for
his own benefit. He obstinately
ignored the exercise of defamation.
and came to the class week after week
with no preparation for his work.
Il will make that boy speak some
thing" finally resolved the teacher.
When his name was next called and he
answered. as usual, "Unprepared."

He did so.

1t was done.
Ladies and gentlemen continued
the teacher with dignity, 1--WE will now

cation table said backward with

There was no lodging the com
mand, and the poor victim stood before
his audience gesticulating and appeal
ing by emphasis and meditation to
the sympathles of his roaring school
fellows all the way from "l2 timesl2 2"

We live by faith; but faith is not the slave
OF text and legend. Reasons voice and
Gods,
Natures and dutvs never are at odds.
What asks our Father of His children save
Justice and mercy and humility,
A reasonable service of good deeds
Pure living, tenderness to human needs,
Reverence and trust, and prayer for
light to see
The Masters footsteps IN our daily waysS
No knotted scourge, nor sacriticial knife,
But the calm beauty of an ordered life
Whose very breathing is unworded praise
A life that stands, as all true lives have

Fast rooted in the faith that God is good.

The attempt to influence votes in
favor of the S526, 900 bond Issue by say
ing that great deal OF labor will be en-
ployed upon the fraction of water
syetem the bonds are to pay for, is a
piece Of demagogy that should have
no weight with intelligent men. If the
incurring of this debt is premature and
ill.advised, workingmen will suffer for it
rs well as others. A very large proper
tion of our workingmen are the owners
of their homes, and they will have to
pay in taxes for any mistakes of this
character that may be made. We be-
lieve that the city will become the
owner of the entire water system OF Los
Angeles in six years from now-perhaps
before. What sense is there, then, in
assuming over half million of indebt-
edness at the present time for the frac-
ton of a system that will be useless
when the city assumes control of the
whole system? Especially is this the
case when the question of urgency in
securing supply of pure water for the
hill district is met by the fact that the
old company hasJmade arrangements to
furnish that supply. This question
should be argued upon reasonable
grounds, and not be permitted to drift
into demagogical appeals.
Los Angeles herald., 1892-10-27

ONE week from Tuesday the United
States will be in fever of excitement,
to know who is president elect-Harrison
or Cleveland. The battle ground is be-
lieved to be in New York, but even that
may be a hallucination warranted only
by history. Massachusetts, has twice
elected a Democratic governor within
the past ten years; and while Elkins is
moving heaven and earth to carry West
Virginia for Harrison, still the latter is
certain to lose both Idaho and Montana,
and, perhaps, the centennial state of
Colorado, for his wholesale tergiversa-
ton upon the silver question. So that
Harrison, even granting that he may
carry New York, is liable to lose so
many electoral votes hitherto conceded
to him as to throw the election over into
the house of representatives, by which
Mr.. Cleveland is sure of an election.
Oregon is certain to 60 for Harrison, not
only through the vast wool interest in
that state but through the peridy OF
Governor Pennoyer who, after being
elected by the Democracy, is now driv-
his knife into Mr.. Cleveland. However,
Oregon is very small state and Cali
fornia's gain will more than compensate
for the loss of the Webfoot nation.
Los Angeles herald., 1892-10-27
A THIRD TERM CANDIDATE.

Mr.. Jabez Banbury, the Republican
candidate for county treasurer for a
third term, has been quietly assumed
to be an official without reproach. But.
as matter of fact, good deal of job
ber is Jabez, by jabers, as the Irishman
would say. This interesting public
functionary has, of course, considerable
dealings with the state treasurer. He
is obliged to remit that portion of the
taxes raised in Los Angeles county
which, under the law, accrues to the
state. 1t is generally understood that
these remittances have been by draft,
the actual deportation of the coin not
being necessary. In every case Mr..
Banbury has charged expressage on these
remittances to the state capital-ex.
pressage or exchange. On June IL,
1889, he charged 81 rs per $1,000 for ex-
pressage on 100000 worth of court
house bonds. He could easily have
made rs cent rate by applyingto Wells,
Fargo & Co. This $1.75 rate applied un-
til. on February 5, 1890, he chose to
raise it to $3.50 on $522, ,256 Sc, the
amount involved in his settlement with
the state treasurer. This amounted to
the handsome little sum of 81, PA. 80.
There is 40 question but that, in the
transmission of such large sums, a
special rate could have been readily
made. There is ample ground for the
belief that these remittances were not
made by express but by draft, and
Brother Jabez appears to have profted
to the utmost by his position.
Not only is there this quite apparent
little piece of sharp practice to be noted
in Mr.. Banbury's administration of his
official trust, but the law enjoins him
to keep cash account in business
like manner, which shall be open to the
inspection of every taxpayer, and this,
we are informed, he has never done.
1t strikes us that, uoder the circum-
stances, Brother Jabez comes high.
Voters are not enamored OF third. term
candidates, anyhow. After filling one
term, if man is deserving, second
term is fitting recognition of his first.
But the voter feels inclined to draw the
line at third term. 1t was even drawn
on Ulysses s. Grant, and the same prin-
ciple applies to smaller fry. The Repub-
licans, in nominating Jabez Banbury,
violated this time. honored tradition,
and the voters will probably rebuke the
innovation at the polls.

Mrs. BALDWIN, who was a missionary
in China, is denouncing the exclusion
policy before eastern audiences. She
says that she met with more considera-
ton and was treated with greater de-
ference in China than in the United
States, where she has been threatened
with assault and has held her life in
danger. Mrs. Baldwin must have lived
in other parts of China than in those
portions where the missionaries last
year had to flee for their lives and GEEK
the protection of English and American
gunboats. We cannot imagine in what
portion of this country she could have
been where the people are in the habit
of threatening and assaulting ladies.
She is perhaps the victim OF some sort

his loyalty to Cleveland and the
Democratic party. Alluding to
the private pension bills that Cleve-
land had vetoed, the general said that
he (Sickles) had examined the matter
carefully, that they ought to have been
vetoed and that he would have vetoed
them himself. Thus falls the super.
structure so laboriously raised by our
friend the enemy. In the case of Gen,
Henry w. Slocum, on whose loyalty to
the Democratic ticket doubts had been
cast by Republicans, the same enthusi-
astic advocacy OF Cleveland has been
shown. The Republican assumption
that the Union veteran is fool does not
seem to be warranted by the facts.

The San Francisco Examiner gives
figures to show that the great register
of that city has been stuffed by the Re.
publican bosses, Crimmins and Kelley,
aided by Buckley's successor, Sam
Raiuey, to the extent of 5000 fraudulent
names. The election commissioners
have done all in their power to prevent
any correction of the list by refusing to
Issue citations. The only thing left
honest citizens to do to modify this
wholesale fraud on an honest ballot, is
to organize an extensive corps of chal-
lengers at the polls, and the Democrats
are taking steps to carry out such pro-
gramme.
Los Angeles herald., 1892-10-27

ONLY short time ago the Republican
campaigners were distending their lungs
claiming Gen. Daniel E. Sickles as a con.
vert to Harrison and Reid. This was
founded upon some remarks of petu-
liant nature made by Gen. Sickles at the
Chicago convention, when he was warmly
advocating Hill for the presidency and,
of course, opposing Mr.. Cleveland. We
are now obliged to let in the light upon
this supposititious conversion or perver-
sion to Harrison. The hero of Gettys-
burg made speech at Utica, the other
day, in which he proclaimed
