PRESIDENT HARRISON AS A LAW LRC-
TURER.

A wicked mugwump editor beyond
the mountains, referring to President
Harrison's possible future connection
with Stanford university, calls attention
to the necessity of his setting himself
right on several things that have recent
ly happened on this coast,
1t is first pointed out that the ltata
case was ''set up'' by Mr.. Harrison him
self, no other person even aiding or
abetting. Indeed. it will be readily re-
called that he has claimed that the
whole management of the Chilean busi-
ness was his own and that even Mr..
Blaine had no shaping OF it. Ii Mr..
Harrison comes to California to talk law
to the students it is presumed that ne
will begin with the laws of nations.
What will he say of the famous chase OF
the Itata by the cruiser Charleston
And what will he say of the final sur
render and the action OF the federal
court in declaring the whole business un-
fortunate if not inexplicable He can
not hope that these things have passed
out of the public mind and SO will not,
for q moment, feel sure that some big
boys in the back seats may not blab out.
1t is suggested that it will be much
the better way for Mr.. Harrison to ad.
NIT that his Indianapolis practice did
not lead him much amongst shipping OF
maritime law, either in peace or war,
and that, besides, he may have got bit
rusty in what he had once known, and
proceed to read up and honestly fit him.
self for the exacting duties of law lee
turer. 1t is further suggested, il order
to make his possible stay in Californis
wholly agreeable, that he come by way
of San Diego and look the country all
over, with the view of having the pic.
ture of that peaceful harbor fixed in his
mind for any future reference. And
now to all these things the HERALD adds
the kindly suggestion that the ameni
ties of professional life, as well as the
comforts OF aetay in the state SO neal
the scenes of the Itata's career, really
require that Mr.. Harrison spend day
or two with Judge Rose, talk over the
whole business, and if need be 60 and
eat an orange on the Glendale ranch
beneath the pensive pepper tree. We
feel certain if he will do these things all
will be forgiven.

THE HOPE. OF THg REPUBLICANS.

One of the leading and certainly the
very oldest OF the Republican papers of
New England few days ago had a
striking editorial view of the political
situation. 1t disposed Of the chances of
Republican success ih 1896 through any
accident or possible Democratic blunder-
ing, because the Republicans have
shown themselves quite as capable
of making mistakes as their opponents,
who can now do vastly more
in the way of shaping new legis-
lation and making new issues than the
party out of power and compelled simply
to wait and criricise.
1t finally concludes that 'the only
condition of success is through the
adoption o. new and vital issues, such
as will provoke the enthusiasm of the
patriotic and moral forces among the
people. IL seems to us absurd to ex-
pect that the Republican party can win
another victory on the sole basis of the
commercial and economic issues on
which the last two national campaigns
have been contested. Whatever the
abstract merit of the principles therein
represented, their advocac cannot
again provoke degree of partisan en-
thusiasm even equal to the mildness OF
the last campaign"
This, we beg to say, is small hope
for the Republican party. 1t is not
easy to arouse deep and general
moral sense and enlist it in any
mere political controversy. Such things
do happen but the occasions are
so far apart that they are rare as revo-
lutions-are. in fact, revolutions. No
party can set to work and make great
moral issue for its political necessities,
and least of all party whose claime to
morality have been discredited and de-
rided by large majority of the voters
of the country. No man in his sober
senses but sees that the issues before
this country are plain and most serious
and pressing business ones that need
just the leadership and statesmanship
represented by Mr.. Cleveland and the
men he will call around him. These
Issues are so plain and 30 pressing that
nothing can take their place for long
time and no party can take hold Of
them with such show of success as the
Democracy can do. Hence the hope
that upon some new thing an old and
beaten party can rise soon to power
sgain lie indeed small hope.

SOMETHING ABOUT SALARIES.

A writer on the subject of courts in
California, in recent communication to
city paper, concludes that 'the sal.
aries of judges in this state are absurdly
low" Much more than this he says
that will not bear serious consideration
but this ie enough for text.
1t is true that many of the soundest
lawyers in the state could not afford to
be supreme court judges at $4,000 year,
or to go upon the bench of the superior
court at $4,000. But it neither follows
that these men would make any better
judges than others who earn less, nor
that they would be selected, how
ever well equipped they might be. This
is simply another way of saying that it
isn't always the most conspicuous sue
cesses as placticing lawyers who make
the best judges, nor the best lawyers
who get the places anyway. So We fall
Los Angeles herald., 1893-01-06

back on the practical fact, as all sensi-
BILE observers will agree, that good
judges can be got and kept at the sal
aries which obtain in the different COM
muDities, and if these be respectable,
that is commensurate with those paid
for other services of like general excel
ience, We ought to BE spared these peri
odical spasms concerning them.
In the cases of the justices of the su-
preme court of the United States, who
have to live in Washington, entertain
and grow old and drop out helpless to
earn more forever after, it is often Justly
confessed that the pay is too small, but
we do not believe that this can be fairly
said of any other class of the judiciary,
at least in any of the western states. AS
a matter Of fact, four thousand dollars,
for instance, as the pay of the judges of
Los Angeles county, is sufficient pay. 1t
may be that there are dozen or so
lawyers in this city who make, one year
with another, more than this amount OF
good, clean money above all their ex-
penses, but it would not be the easiest
possible task to count more than that
number. And would it be claimed that
these few would necessarily make better
judges than those who might earn lees ?
Or if they would, that the county con-
vention would mark them for it's own
Nobody pretends this, and nobody
pretends that first class men, fit in all
ways to measure out justice, cannot be
had at $4,000 to preside over our county
courts. In fact, it would be contempti-
BILE for any incumbent to complain that
he were making sacrifice for the good
of anybody. Salaries of all sorts in this
state are not only good, but larger than
in the majority of the states, as is al
ways true of new region; and above
all it is true that under the appointive
method of choosing judiciary, which
thank Heaven most states have. there
would be not the smallest trouble in
getting the very best possible existing
talent for all our judicial places at the
present salaries. We get very excellent
men now for these places, 60 good that
this community does not complain; but
if we would try for better material We
shall find it under another system Of
selecting, in which the choice of these
Offices is not given into the hands of the
city political striker nor the rural phi
losopher.

TO REMAIN HERE.

Captain Dudley VIII Not Be Moved Dur
ing the Present Administration.
Capt. E. S. Dudley received tele-
gram yesterday from the adjutant-
generals Office at Washington inform
ing him that he would be allowed to
remain here as assistant adiutant-
general of the department of Arizona
until further orders. As he had recent
ly been appointed assistant quarter
master he naturally expected an assign
ment to duty elsewhere in the
quartermaster service, but this new
order allows him to remain here until
further changes take place.
In this connection it may be we'll
enough to surmise that such changes
will take place early in March, when a
new secretary of war will be selected by
President Cleveland, after which there
will be some new men in the war Office
at Washington. 1t is not likely that
there will be any changes made in the
department of Arizona much before the
beginning of June.

COL. GRIFFIN's DEATH.
The Demise of q Well known savan
and Litersteur.

The Demise of q Well known savant
and Litersteur.
George Butler Griffin died at his resi-
dence yesterday afternoon at l O'Clock
from pleurisy of the heart.
Mr.. Griiin was one of the notable
characters Of Los Angeles. Quiet and
unsssuming in his daily life, he was one
OF the most widely educated men in the
country. At the time of his death he
was president of the Historical society OF
Southern California, and his life for IL
years past in his adopted city of Los
Angeles had been one of unremitting
and conscientious literary toll He was
one of the corps of writer's for the Ban
croft History company of San Francisco
for several years, and in addition to his
purely literary work he was volumin-
GUS contributor to the daily press. In
fact Mr.. Griffin was a many-sided man,
and SO modest was he that it was only
amongst his most intimate friends that
the full extent of his erudition was
known.
Mr.. Griffin was born September s.,
1910, in New York city. He graduated
at Columbia college. He drifted to the
United States of Colombia, where he
became a colonel of engineers in the
Colombian army. OF late years his
health has been anything but good, but
it was not allowed by him to interfere
with the multifarious duties he had
taken upon himself in connection with
various publications and the Historical
society.
He may well be called savant, if
ripe judgment and thorough classical
training may constitute such, and in
these days of business ambitions
walked almost apart from the ordinary
man of business. Mr.. Griffin left
a library of some 5000 volumes,
which is by all odds one of the choicest
collections on the coast. He also left a
wife and several children to mourn the
loss of one who had been go quietly
mindful of the duties of life that their
full lose can hardly be realized until his
departure to join the silent majority.
He was, in addition to his lines of ac-
tivity, journalist OF no mean ability,
and was for some time editor of the Ex-
press of this city. The history of the
literary life of California cannot be made
up without due recognition of Mr.. Grif.
| fms valuable services.
The time OF the funeral has not YET
been decided, but due notice of it will
be given.

OF currency by the constant issue of sil-
yer and silver notes is driving gold out
OF the country; and this appears to be
just about as much of mystery to the
wise men of Gotham as TO the workers
upon the ranch. This is vital ques-
ton for Californians to study, for while
they do not believe in scares, they reai-
ize that every one of their promises to
pay has gold coin snapper on the end
of it, and they would suffer more than
any other people by the sending away
or locking up gold to this conntry's

IT WAS resolved at St. Paul yesterday
with the mercury IA degrees below,
that the Methodist church of America
shall have daily newspaper. The Ep-
worth League convention, which made
THE announcement, declared that the
Methodist church has 100000 mem
bers. and that new daily paper that
should have liberal tone and all the
"clean" newe. ought to have ,000,0
gu ubscrioers. Well, it looks nice on pa
per, but no religious daily ever survived
long. xs such, in this country, though
Imany have been started. Perhaps the
best result Of any such venture was in
the case OF the New York World, which
was conceived in Presbyterianism, and
finally aoSered out into pure Democ-
facy.

Not the least important feature of
Mrs. Besant's lectures is their effect in
stirring up thought that might other
wise be stagnant. One cannot be near
her and hear her hold forth on subjects
of humanitarian interest without feeling
the necessity for action. She is par ex-
cellence woman of action, and seems
to infuse ler spirit Into those with
whom she comes in contact. Her work
in London has spread until it has been
taken up by people to whom the miser-
able East End was terra incognita
until this vigorous woman forced them
to see that human suffering and misery
claimed their sympathy. A reputation
based on work of this character Mrs.
Besant brought to theosophy, and it has
been invaluable in establishing the fact
that no matter how hare-braiued or
improbable some of the theories she ad-
vanced might be, she believed in them
and was devoting life noted for its
altruism to the propagation of them.
This fact will lend interest to the lec-
lures at the Los Angeles theater next
Monday and Tuesday evenings.

THERE are ugly rumors about some OF
the newly installed county officers. A
restaurant keeper says that one or two
of them, to his certain knowledge, eat
with knife. This, probably, is without
foundation. The same thing was actu-

men running for congress from here, and
even OF a candidate for superior court
Judge. We shall never be free from
oroplatc
