Tonight.
LOS ANGELES AT THE FAIR.

Last night was set apart by the director
ate of the Mechanics Fair for Los Angeles
County.
Senator-elect Stephen NJ. White was ex-
pected to speak for the county. but was
obliged to be elsewhere and sent his regrets.
The county of the angels, however. did
not want for a spokesman. Its fruitful
lands were represented in the Pavilion by a
small exhibit brought here by w. FL.
Souther and he was secured to make the
evenings address.
Mr.. Souther's exhibit is located in the
south annex and consists of some 5000
oranges of good quality. lemons, specime MS
of coffee. asbestos and few clusters OF
bananas.
He is an advocate Of the system OF de-
stroying parasites on trees by means Of
fumigation. The fumes Of hydr0cyanic
acid are used, after a canvas tentlike cone
has been>placed over the Tree. 1t is stated
that four wagons, a pair OF horses and three
men can funigate thrty-two eight or ten
year old trees in one hour by one particular
process.
large number Of people who visited the
Pavilion last night did so in the hope OF
hearing Standardized White and were
greatly disappointed a his nOn-appearance.
Quite little crowd gathered round the
bandstaud after the Rock of Ages" tableau
and then j. r. O'Brien introduced Mr..
SOuther.
The speaker of the evening struck gen.
erOus ote from the outset.
He said that Northern California had
brought together in that Pavilion the most
magnificent collection of oranges 1t had
ever been his good fortune to behold.
IL had been held in the past that North
ern California could not grow oranges, but

On behalf of Los Angeles County he was
proud to acknowledge the capabllity of the
north.
The northern section had even an advan-
tage. perhaps, in its cheaper land. Down
there in the speakers county land was
worth all the way from $500 to $500 an acre,
and no such price was asked for these
fruitful northern lands. His sunny south"
was not all sunny, some of it was bare and
unfit for the higher development of citrus
fruits.
California, he said. stood ahead Of every
other State in the Union. and by-and-by
would be a great empire State. In IL could
be found any kind of climate desired.
lone thing further" continued Mr..
SOuther, regarding the talk OF sectionalism.
81 stand here tonight to claim that there
Is no enmity. no division OF interests be-
tween the north aud south. We are one.
Let us stand together and make this the
gtandest country in the world Let us
remember the lesson of the old trouble
about the Mason and DiXon's line and
work To stand as unit
The speaker concluded by urging the
adoption of direct voting by the people as
the only means tG hold the multiplication OF
miliOpares in check.
After the address the people felt free
again TO wander once more In search OF
sensation new.
THE Bishop" the latest addition to the
picture gallery, was surrounded continu-
ously by a crowd, competing closely with
the Indian papOose in popularity.

little, the totals up 10 the close last evening
