CAPTAIN ]. r. MULLETT has been in
terviewed in San Francisco about bis
marvellous report of a seismic or other
disturbance in San Nicolas island, re-.
sulting in the filing up and obliteration
of Coral harbor. 1t seems that Professor
Davidson had treated the report as a
hoax, and Captain Mullett repeats with
great emphasis all the facts he before
reported. He left Coral harbor on the
Goth of June for San Diego to get stores.
He returned several days after and
found the harbor wiped out. The men
he left there reported to him that on the
Oath of June they experienced shocks of
earthquake followed by disturbance in
the waters and the filling up OF the har-
Dor, as reported. He offers to wager
$500 that the facts are as stated, and is
willing to take Professor Davidson and a
committee to San Nicolas to verify
them. Captain Mullett has been for a
SCORE of years capturing sea lions on the
channel islands and shipping them to
eastern and European menageries, gath.
ering and exporting abalone shells
and catching crayfish for mar
ket. Tho prominence given to Cap
tain Mullett in this Coral harbor matter
places us in reminiscent mood. He
came here from Australia early in the
'7Os with an animal show. He had
monkeys, ourang-outangs, leopards

FORTUNATELY, in view of the partial
failure OF the orange crop this year, in
the sense of a poor handling OF the
yield and Indifferent prices, the cereals
are likely to do well. This is particu-
larly true OF barley. There was no con-
siderable stock of barley left over from
last year, either south or north, and in
this current year OF grace about the only
region where there is any abundance OF
barley is in the southern counties. Its
price ought to go much higher than the
prevailing figure, and it undoubtedly
will. The outlook for wheat is not 60
encouraging, owing to the furry in sil-
YER, and the consequently depressed
prices that will rule on East Indian
wheat. As to corn, our farmers can
regulate it's price themselves if they
desire to do 30. With pork on the hoof
at FIVE cents pound corn can be fed
profitably to hogs at one dollar hun
dred. AS the present market price ol
hogs is six cents pound, the farmer, il
he will devote himself to diversified
farming, can regulate the price of his
own corn. While there is very little
activity in the cereals just now, the
HERALD has no hesitancy in assuring its
readers that the price of barley here
after will have an upward range.

land. that each Of the third stage con-
sumptives placed under the treatment

medical men claim that this is the most
complete demonstration that consump-

administered DR.. Amick's medicines
are so far improved that their sppetites
have returned. They sleep well al
night, have no night sweats, the irritat.

Mullett showed bimsef in town he

OUR esteemed evening contemporary,
the Express, had the following to say
about the appointment Of Governor Per-
kins to succeed Senator Stanford, In re-
cent Issue:
Mr.. Perkins will have nearly four
years to serve, the term for which Mr..
Stanford was elected, expiring on March
4, 1897.
This is altogether wrong. Mr.. Per-
kins will only fill that portion OF the un-
expired term of Senator Stanford which
shall ensue between the date of his ap-
pointment and the next meeting OF the
California legislature. Should that
body be convened in special session next
week, the first duty to which ii would
apply itself would be the election Of a
man to fill out Senator Stanford's unex-
pired term. Mr.. Perkins as q senator
would then sink quietly out Of view, as
a Democrat would surely be elected un-
der the present complexion Of the legis-
lature. This would be in the line of the
experiences OF Senator Hearst, who was
appointed by Governor Stoneman to
succeed Senator Miller, deceased. Un.
fortunately the governor later called q
special session of the Legislature and
Senator Hearst was compelled to step
down and out.

WHENEVER the great American people

WHENEVER the great American people
get crotchet into their heads it is just
as we'll to indulge them. Merry mis-
rule must have it's hour, and the sov-
ereign American citizen must be per-

that New England even will have to
demonstrate the fact that its banking
eystem, like that of most of the rest OF
the country, is on q sound foundation.
Happy are those banks, including our
own, that have gone through the ordeal
early, and have demonstrated their re-
liability and solvency. In fact, with the
exception OF the City bank, there has
not been found flaw in our local bank
ing institutions. The career of the City
bank was not such as to inspire conf
dence, and if it had not been factor
in our local banking system, Los An
geles would have ridden out the fiscal
etorm with imperturbable grace and
strength. The City bank was weak be-
cause it did not confine itself to legiti-
mate banking, but plunged into every
thing OF a speculative character that
came along, from running system of
