A PECULIAR CLAIM.
Resurt OF Justice Court Case ut 8


f-f-t
Resurt OF Justice Court Case at San
Gabriel. zl-a
A case has been appealed from San
Gabriel Justice court to the superior
court upon most peculiar not toSsay
amusing grounds. The action. was one
brought againet James O'Rilley, before
Justice of the Peace Jones, the case be-
ing heard before jury.
In asking for new trial the defend
ant set forth that after all evidence in
the case had been heard and the jury
had retired to private room for consul
tation, that one Soloman by name, did
force his way into said room, and after
consulting the jurors and learning their
views upon the case, did come out and
try to bet that O'Rilley would be con-
victed.
From whichsit will be seen that the
aforesaid Solomon had sharp eye out
for business, for the Jury few minutes
afterwards came out and sure enough
found defendant guilty.
For these reasons defendant asks that
the verdict OF the jury be set aside.

THE CITY ON THE WRONG sIDR OF THE
BAY.

Some OF the interior papers are aston
ished that the people of San Francisco
are 60 forgetful OF their own interests as
to throw all the weight of their influ-
ence in favor of Oakland in its fight with
the Southern Pacific railroad. A writer
in the Stockton Mail lays great stress
upon the fact that San Francisco, as re-
CARDS the trade of the interior, is on the
wrong side of the bay. and the Fresno
Expositor calls attention to the striking
phrase of Arthur McKswen that San
Francisco was located on the wrong end
of the road. The deduction is that San
Francisco ought to be opposed to any
movement that will increase Oakland's Q
facilities for becoming a great CONNER
cial city. "Undertaker," regular
writer in the Stockton Mail. says that
"the reason that San Francisco ia the
city and Oakland the suburb. though a
double passage of the bay is necessary
for the carrying on of business under
these conditions, is that San Francisco
had deep water on her side Of the bay
originally and on the Oakland shore the
water shoaled." "Undertaker" is
away wrong. The reason San Fran.
cisco became the metropolitan city, was
because before gold was discovered she
had start, and men of capital had be.
come interested in her growth. When
gold was discovered, all the business OF
the state naturally focused there, and
the Brannans. the Howards, the Fol-
soms, the Buckalews and a score OF
other strong business men who owned
miles of ffty-vara lots in the city,
were determined to keep it there. AT
that time Oakland was a soli-
,tary ranch, where the Peraltas and long
cared jackass rabbits sportively toyed
with the predatory coyote. San Fran
cisco possessed no advantage over Oak
land in having deep water on her
side." No vessel could come within a
mile Of Montgomery street but her cargo
had to be lightered into ths city from
the middle CT the bay, where the ships
rode at anchor. The distance from the
Oakland shore to deep water is no great
or than it was in San Francisco at the

will not be competent hereafter for a

School Opening.

EDITORS HERALD: There has been
something said lately by somebody con-
cerning what has been termed the early
opening Of the public schools In Los An
gsles City, that has been determined up
on by the board of education and the
superintendent Of schools. Tho date
set for the opening is, High school,
September IL; and for other schools
September 10.
Among other nonsensical reasons it
has been urged that the 18th OF Sep
tember 10 In the middle of our dog days,
that crime would be psrperated upon
the children to etuff them In the schools
ct that time, and the attention of the
Humane Society has been directed to
the school directors and school 6uperins
tendent In this connection, And per-
haps some newspapers have admitted
into their columns expressions that
have been exceedingly i'll advised in re-
lation to this matter.
For one, with an experience here Of
over ten years, think the vacation
given of two and half months Covering
all our warm weather) is long enough
for all purposes for ali classes Of people.
Here 10 East Los Angeles, sir, our
public schools are very liberally patron
lied, and . canvas of the question az to
the date of opening has revealed gem
eral consensus of sentiment favoring
September 18th. For many years our
schools have been opened after the sum-
mer vacation in September, and there
has never been any complaint, and
would not be surprised il the public
record showed greater success accomp-
lished In those years than others.
As rule, our weather in September
10 very pleasant, and often our fall rains
commence in that month.
But, sir. there seems to be an anxious
disposition in some quarters to criticize
all tho, actions of our school officers.
Let it be borne in mind tha@ the choice
of each ward is laboring steadfastly with
the choice OF all the other wards OF the
city for the best interest in educational
matters of those who patronize our
public schools. Perhaps the Educa-
tional Gar has been slightly off the track,
and the present efficient officers are
lifting it on again.
Anyway. in deciding to open the
public schools in the latter part of Sep |
tember, the Board of Education OF the |
city has evidently consulted and acted |
in conformity with the wishes of very
large majoiity OF the parents who send |
their children to the schools in East Los
Angeles.
How is it In the other wards? Let US
hear from thSm. Yours respectfully,
Los Angeles, Aug. 10. ~ /

ATTACK UPON rHE GsARY LAW.

We agree with the San Francisco Gall
when it says that the message which
Hi Lung Chang is reported to have in
trusted to Consul Bowman is 80 ridicu.
lous that the conclusion is safe that II
did not emanate from the brain of Ii
Hung Chang. No nation enacts laws
under threat Of retaliation. The sus.
pension of Chinese vengeance whale
congress- is considering whatit will do ID
an open insult. II Ii Hung Chang had
sent such message ~ this and if in the
face of it congress should repeal the
Geary act ell Europe would would laugh
at US. 1t Is perhaps true that Europe ID
laughing already. A Law held in sus-
pension does not inspire respect. 1t i'm.
plies weaknass on the part Of the law
making department Of government OF
usurpation on the part Of the executive.
A dispatch from Washington says
that Mr.. Gesry had an interview with
Secretary Gresham and urged him to vi
talize the law by utilizing what money
there is in the treasury available to
prosecute and deport such Chinese az
are amenable to its provisions. But
Gresham gave him no satisfaction.
That would seem to imply that tho Soc
retary Of states Office will do nothing it
lie not compelled to do to enforce the
Geary act. In other words the secre-
tars OF state is greater than congress in
this matter.
1t is now said that some note has &C.
tually reached the secretary OF state

informal note, which may never be fled
in the department. on account of its
dubious and extra-official character,
seems to be part Of q strong movement

on the assumed ground that the law is

1t looks very much jnst now as ii the
enemies of Chinese exclusion will sue
ceed. They certainly will succeed ifthe
labor demonstrations on this coast
culminate in acts of violence against
the Mougolians. With these laws
brushed aside, or rendered inopera-

thirty years will be lost.
