City Attorney Mcfarland has ad

Of education, which will be presented at

which the city of Los Angeles has here
tofore issued bonds for school purposes

In the event of your board still de-
string to raise money for school purposes
by the issuing Of bonds, you may make
application to the city council to submit

TO FORCE FREE COINAGE.
EXTREME MEASURES ADVOCATED
BY ULTRA SILVER MEN.
The Protective Tariff to Be Wiped Out
and Every Man Who Served In
Either Army to Be
Pensioned.

CHICAGO, Aug. 7.--Col. A. @. Fisk, a
Colorado delegate to the silver conven-
ton, has remained in the city in con-
sultation with bimetallists from all Sec
tions of the'country, perfecting plans to
orce congress to give the nation free
coinage OF silver and some measure OF
justice to debtors and producers. He
stated to press reporter that deter
mination had been reached to use every
possible argument to convince the east
that it was to the interest of all classes
to restore silver and give the country q
proper per capita circulation with which
to do business, and If the east persisted
in reducing the volume of money, which
would enslave the west and south, that
q combined effort would be made by
those sections to wipe out the protective
tariff and to pension every soldier who
served in either the federal or confeder-
ate armies. their widows and orphans,
and to enact law providing graduated
income tax for that purpose.

LONDON, Aug. I'm the house OF
lords today, the earl Of Northbrooke.
some time ago governor-general of India,
called attention to the existing obstacles
to the importation OF manufactured sill

He said that the silver in the hands
of the people of India was estimated
to amount in value to from 913O,OOO,OO
to 9l5O, 900. Owing to the stoppage
of free coinage of silver by the Indian
government, the people were unable
to find q market for their
metal and were sustaining enormous
losses. The abolition Of the Hall mark

trade in articles manufactured from
silver, would. he declared, miti-

papers he had on the subject. The earl

The City Bank Money.
Frem Thursdsy's DAILY HERALD.
If there is one thing that an expert
enced newspaper man hates to do it is
to ask any newspaper to suppress q
piece of news. So many illogical and
absurd requests of this nature are made
in newspaper Offices that one familiar
with their usages will not willingly add
to, the burdens of the editors.
As case in point. it is told of Super
visor Andy Francisco, the veteran jour
nalist and ex-proprietor of the Ohio
State Journal, that he was asked in con-
nection with the star chamber proceed
ings OF the board and the bankers over
the county money in the City bank mat
ter, to visit the morning newspapers
and use his influence to suppress any
mention of the subject-a subject in
which the public is go profoundly inter-
eeted.
Mr.. Francisco smiled that kindly, but
shrewd smile which he occasionally al
lows to drift over his countenance, and
told the gentleman that he had no de-
sire to be laughed At and they would
have to do their own suppressing. The
visit was not made, and the newspapers
printed all they could get about the
mysterious conference.
1t leaked out yesterday that Treasurer
Shorb's bondsmen will endeavor to ar
range matters by the uext meeting oi

LONDON, Aug. There was consider
able excitement among the Conserva-
tive members at the opening OF today's
session of the house of commons. The
report stage OF the home rule bill was
reached at an earlier hour than it was
expected, and Bsliour, who had an i'm
portant amendment to submit to the
bill, was not present to submit the
amendment. The Conservatives were
exceedingly desirous OF having the
amendment submitted. George Bait
ley, Conservative, requested to be per-
mitted to act as his substitute in offer
ing the amendment.
Speaker Peel ruled that, at this stage,
substitutes could not be allowed. A
number OF new clauses were then pro-
posed by other members of the Opposi-
ton, but the speaker ruled them out on
the ground that due notice had not been
given of their submission. The
Unionists stood aghast as they saw the
report sweeping through with lightning
speed. Their fright was allayed. how.
ever, when James Park Smith, Liberal
Unionist, after having eight new clauses
proposed by him ruled out, moved that
the boundary commission under the bill
be instructed to inquire as to
better division Of the Irish
electoral districts. The debate
on this motion was taken up, and thif

four and other members of the opposi
tion appeared in the house in time tc
take part in the debate on Smiths
motion. Eventually the motion was de,
feated by vote of 1876 to 1872, Smith
moved two further clauses dealing with
elections in Ireland. After debate each
clause was rejected.

irAte Jerry declared that in future, ii
the county would only allow him two
bits meal for jurors, that he would
have to serve them "two bit" dinners.
An amusing contretemps occurred re-
Gently in this connection that is too
good to keep. One day last week there
came to Rivera by appointment three
jolly young men. the representatives OF
well-known commission houses, with
the Los Nietos and Ranchito Walnut
associations crop this year, which will
probably amount TO ~ carloads or

One Of the gentlemen is . member of

Chicago apologized to the waiter for the

planned that these gentlemen were not

wanted the very best the house could

stripped, and soon reafranged with
Jerry'e finest linen and costliest silver.

were soon engaged in bringing ON the
