RAILROAD RUMBLINGS.
WHY HE SMOKED ON THE DE
POT PLATFORM.
Bright Budget of Railroad News
Gathered from Various
Sources by the
Rumbler.

G. w. Tyler, the well known
ranchman of Sabinal, who shipped
fine stallion to his ranch the
other day, was sitting on the plat
form of the Sunset freight depot
yesterday, enjoying fine smoke.
Smoking is strictly prohibited at
freight depots, and mo smoking"
signs are to be seen in the most
conspicuous places. Equally as con-
spicuous are the names of neigh
boring towns posted, known as
freight runs" with which the
roads do regular business.
An employee of the Sunset,
ever faithful to perform his
duties, notified Mr.. Tyler that no
smoking was allowed in the freight
depot, at the same time directing
him to the sign above, for reference.
Mr.. Tyler followed the direction
suggested by the informant, and
saw the sign in plain black bOX-car
letters, "no smoking" He hesita-
ted awhile and looked again, when
he observed the name "HondO
City" just below the former sign.
"Well," said he, II don't see how
that has any reference to me. |
can't help it if they don't allow
smoking in Hondo City. They
have local option there, you know ;
but that amt going to keep me
from smoking in San Antonio"
The railroader laughed at Mr..
Tyler's apparent ready wit, and
finally succeeded in explaining to
him why the signs were placed
there. But, however, the apprO-
pirate double meaning of the signs
was not noticed until Mr.. Tyler's
attention was attracted. 1t is now
likely that the two signs will be
posted more separately so they
will in the future not be mislead.

Allen c.. Bragg OF the Gaz 'tts who
has been away from Reno fort .asen
months says: I'VE would advise the
chronic kicker, who thinks Nevada lfi
only for horned toads and rattle-snakes,
to take a trip through the country and
try to find a better place. The farmers
on the Truckee meadows live and dress
better than in any other section of the
country, have mora of the pleasures and
comforts of life than the farmers 81
aay part Of California they live in bet
ter houses, get better prices for their
produce and are in every way better off.
We hear growing accounts OF the
country about Los Angeles. the beputi-
full orange groves, the immense yield Of
the land devoted to the cultivation Of
prunes, but distance lends enchantment
to the view. Nevada is just o under
going q business depression, owing no
doubt to the unsettled condit' ON of the
financial question and a change Of adj
ministration, but we are better off here
and have less TO growl about than
the people in San Francisco. Let those
who think they have q hard row to hoe
dig up their sack and take a trip to
other sections of the coast and we rem
ture the assertion that they will return
homie better satisfied with themselves
and this portion Of the world at large.

The following is the toast america"
which Thomas Erraticus gave before a
"swallow-tail" dinner party, recently t.:
america, land of the free and home OF
the brave; America, greatest republic
on earth; America, where man is king,
and more than queen America,
where all that is good, and true, pure
and. noble, upright and honest, finds its
fit abiding place; America, where the
eagle Of freedom wings its flight up-up
up into the bright blue sky and
stares the sun OF day in the lace; Ameri-
ca, where Uncle Sam blows the horn OF
plenty and Columbia PLAYS the tune
that is killing thousands and thousands
OF poor, miserable wretches; America,
o land Of untitled promises where the
empty pocket and hungry stomach is
productive Of the benevolence, sympathy
and charity Of the money lord; where
homes are not and liberty is a dream ;
America, land OF the freebooter and
home Of the brave nineteenth century
brigand, who robs the people in the
halls Of legislation; America, where
there are almost 80, O0O, 600 acres that
have been gobbled up as a choice
delicacy by the British rooster OF aristo-

THE members of the committee on
banking are SOM what surprised that
the president made no reference in his
message to the proposition embodied in
the Chicago platform which pledged the
Democratic party to remove the tax on
tho circulation oi state banks. There
was something rather significant in that
omission, but there was certainly no un-
certainty in his recommendation to pro.
vide for the issuance OF bonds. A dis
eliminating intelligence can find, by a
close inspection OF what was said and
what was not said, slight leaning on
the part OF. Mr. Cleveland towards the
national banks, which, on the authority
of Mr.. John Sherman, will have a
measure introduced at an early date
for the issuance OF more bonds as
a basis for circulation. No party which
has existed in the United States so far
can point to a scrupulous futillment of
party platform pledges. The statesmen
of neither OF the great national parties
ever go to the extent OF distinguished
Californian, the Hon. James Mem.
Shafter, who said that platforms were
molasses spread out to catch flies, but
they sometimes act as if they thought
that way. 1t ia dollars to marbles that
the state banks will find the legislation

THR HERALD's GREAT SC00P-IT EM-
BRACES THE WHOLE CONTINENT.

The greatest legitimate newspaper
scoop ever chronicled on the Pacific
coast was made by the HERALD on Mon
day when 1t issued an eleven O'Clock
extra edition containing the presidents
message OF fifteen thousand words in
full. We not only contaminated our
little joke with the Express, the train
for which we fatter ourselves we laid
very nicely, but we have scooped all our
esteemed San Francisco contemporaries.
In fact these papers, and the Times Of
this city, (the latter doubtful proposi-
tion) are the only journals west OF the
Missouri river that could have pretended
to have handled the message OF $1,000
words under the conditions which ex-
listed. As one travels eastward the
difference in time becomes less. 1t is
three hours between Washington and
Los Angeles. two hours at Denver;
and, by the time one reaches Omaha,
only the afternoon papers, and
those in very late editions, could
hope to handle it. There were
no advance copies as to this message.
Our triumph was the result OF great
pointments of the HERALD, and rush
ing" the resources of the Western Union
Telegraph company and our own unri
vailed force. In truth, when we look into
it. we are appalled, by the fact that the
HERALD-the Los Angeles Daily HERALD
has scooped the whole continent.
When one gets to the Missouri river
only the evening papers, in very late
editions, could hope to present the mes
sage to their readers. The morning
papers. clear to New York, only pub
lished it on Tuesday morning. as did
the Los Angeles Times and the San
Francisco Call, Chronicle and Exam
iner.
1t is just as we'll for the readers Of the
HERALD to take good look at this
proposition and realize what it means.
The Los Angeles HERALD is the only
newspaper in America which printed
the presidents message on Monday be-
fore its reading was completed in the
house OF representatives and senate of
the United States. We were, of course,
aided in doing this by the three hours
difference of time in our favor between
the two places, heretofore referred to.
AS we truly said, in an editorial line
yesterday, "the tsrdy sun arrived just
in time to witness our journalistic
triumph" which, by the way, embraced
the whole continent.
Surely we are justified in repeating an
old sporting by-word, Eclipse was first
and the rest nowhere"

Handling of Gun.
Coroner Gates went to San Gabriel
yesterday to hold an inquest upon the
body OF Fred Johnson, 14-year-old boy
who died from an accidental gunshoi
wound.
Johnson was out hunting with some
Mexican boys. The evidence given was
to the effect that he had placed his gun
against bank, when it fell down and
was discharged.
The whole load of shot struck the boy
in the leg, from the effects Of which he
died Monday night.
The inquest was held at the residence
of the boys parents. Mr.. and Mrs.

which was in accordance with the facts

last night at the srmory and all the
arrangements were perfected for the
successful carrying out OF their ambi-
tious programme.
Mr.. Lowinsky submitted his musical
programme, which will embrace all the

gramme for the orchestral concert has
already been given to the readers of the

novel and beautiful picture. The
florists' work on it will be completed on
Friday.

light apparatus, together with calcium
work, in readiness for q rehearsal this
evening.
Professor Kramer submitted the dance
programme, which embraces all of the
latest dances, and it was adopted.
Kipgsley Il Barnes submitted novel
and beautiful design for programmes.
which was also adopted.

tee it was expected would close last
night, but the demand for invitations is
SO great that their labors are likely to
be continued up to the hour OF the en-
tertainment.
Mr.. G. Allen Dealy, the photographer
engaged in taking views for the mid

The county tax collector, Col Z. E.
Hewitt, is just now being made very
uncomfortable through supplemental
taxes that are being collected. Tie
taxpayers are naturally wroth at being
called upon to pay second time, and
nobody can blame them for little irri-
tation in this matter; but there is no
rhyme or reason in holding Colonel
Hewitt responsible for the fiscal misad-
venture, as he is purely q ministerial
functionary. Some of those who step
up to the captains Office and 'settle"
complain of lack of notice. As far as
Colonel Hewitt is concerned they should
bear in mind the fact that the county
tax collector was only instructed to COL
lect these supplemental taxes on the
23d of November. There is room for
good deal OF kicking at the way things
have been managed, but the kick does
not lie against the county tax collectors
