! cakes and delicate stomach. Consist
ency never shown as a brighter jewel
than in doctors who smoke, clergymen
revealing in boiled dumplings and trans
lucent under pie crust, and guardians of
public health washing down their black
coffee with well water rich in all the pol
lutionslthat make chemical anylists hap
Ply. Air is sometimes alluded to as
"heavens own breath" On that basis one
judges that most people are a trit1e shy
of having heaven breathe directly In their
faces as churches, school houses, concert
rooms and private residences clearly
prove. Folks prefer to take their heaven
second hand after it has been breathed
over and its dangerous quantities ey-
tracted by some man who has been eat
ing garlic, or mixed his beer with to-
bacco. This choice, however, comes un-
der the head of taste.
Ignorance is not only the mother of
devotion as claimed in the middle ages,
but the only sure bulwark of physical
degeneracy. It is our duty to maintain
its sway, to indoctrinate, especially the
young, in the idea that health has no re-
lation to conduct; that events are never
dependent on causes; that disease is
either accidental Or strictly providential.
The fallacious idea that sleep has func-
ton and is to be guarded as sacred
Office, must be replaced by the more "a
tional idea that, as a whole, it was mis-
taken invention.
Glands, organs, muscles and brains
have no need of recuperation, and if time
must be wasted in sleep, the fact and the
deed should be kept as secret as possible,
say in 7x9 bedroom with windows and
doors closed; part of the time can judi
ciously be employed meanwhile in read
ing the most recent tract on economic
ventilation by gasoline stove.
The dangerous consequences of allow
ing the human body ten hours of sound
and recuperative slumber are most hap
PLY averted in the case of children. Here
by method of mutual check the parent
is pitted over against the child in way
that is to be considered as superprovi- |
Dental. Let the excited and overtired |
child have his way, which, by the way, |
all children should have, and he will sit |
up till his elders go to bed. This well
directed benevolence cuts off third Of |
the loss of the night, that the child might |
have wasted in sleep, and fills it up most
properly with popcorn and sundry pieces
of minceTpie When at length nature does |
reassert her claims, the mother can be |
trusted to see that she does not get them.
When six o'clock in the morning comes
that bit of humanity is taught an inval-
liable lesson-"the early bird catches the
worm," which instruction is of inconceiv-
able Importance to growing boy. (The
only drawback is that oft-times the
proverb is reversed and the worms do the
catching).
We are all devout believers in the COM
forting doctrine of total depravity. That
there is Unborn sin in infants cannot be a
matter of doubt when one reflects how
obstinately a new born child fights
against inherited tendencies that it en-
bodies, and the abuses we Immediately
surround it with.

Leland J. Webb died at Topeka last
Tuesday from the effect of drugs admin
istered by his own hand. Mr.. Webb was
a brilliant lawyer and well known all
over the state. He had been addicted to
drink for many years, having contracted
the habit in the war. At his own re-
quest he had been confined in an asylum.
His mind has been badly affected for
some time. He made a strong fight to
free himself from the liquor habit, but be
was not strong enough.

We stated last week that there was but
little use in trying to keep track of the
legislation that is going on. The situa-

have any legal force. This upon the as

eide in favor of the Douglas house. II it
decides in favor of the Dunsmore house
it will be different. All depends upon

A BIG IRON TRUST.

The Now Rockefeller Syndicate Now nm
Accomplished Fact.
New YORK, Sept. 6.-John s. Rookie
feller's attorney today put the finishing
touch to the last preliminary agreement
which makes an accomplished fact of
the Lake Superior Consolidated Iron
Mines combination, controlling nine
tenths of all the iron ore production in
the United States, with cash capital of
$50, 900, 600, and reserve of 500, 600 000
more in aggregate property. These
statements are made on the authority of
Leonidas Merritt. one of the Merritt
brothers who control the Mesaba range
iron mines. He Gays Rockefeller, the
Wetmores and Merritts are in the syndi-
cate. The trust was organized by taking
over the majority interest in the stocks
of the Mssaba and Gogebic range.

Wisconsin, besides the Rockefeller in
terests in the Spanish-American mines
on the east coast of Cuba. The company
will also control steel barge feet of rs
whaleback steamers and bargeH for the
ore trade, and ore receiving docka at
Coneaut, o., and the railroad facilities
Tor getting ore from there to the eastern
furnaces. The company hiss made an
agreement to maintain standard of
prices. These prices will be such as will
preclude the possibility of competition
by the deep hard-ore mines Of the old

NERVY AUDITOR TEALE.
HE PROPERLY OBJECTS TO DE-
MANDS FOR JUNKETlNG.
Travellers Pepper, Trask and Patty OF
the Board of Education Have
Their Demand for Travelling
Expenses Refused.

As stated in the HERALD yesterday,
the board of education sgain presented
the demands OF Messrs. Pepper, Trask
and Patty for $l3S as travelling expenses,
to City Auditor Teale for approval.
The auditor Immediately returned the
demands, together with letter con-
tanning his objections. The communi-
cation stated that the auditor was un-
able to find anything in the law author
izing the expenditure OF school money
for travelling expenses or for the enlight-
eminent of the board of education. If
such were the case it would be allowable
for all the money to be expended in q
like manner.
1t is not known in just what light the
board, or the three members especially,
will receive this the latest advice from
the nervy city auditor. 1t is thought,
however, a test case will be made of it,
as the auditor positively refuses to ap.
prove the demands and says he will not
unless by the order of the court.

IT is pleasant thing to know that
from San Luis Obispo and from up the
coast there is really fine market for
hogs all along the line. Hams in
Southern California require thirty days
to be cured. When they have been
made ready for market they 60 off like
hot cakes. Thus it is pleasant to know
that all our Southern California pork
raisers have a cure and reliable market.
The fact is that there is great move.

THE authorities ASSERT on good author
ity that the city is infested with a num-
Der of hard characters attracted here by
the prosperity OF the place as contrasted
with the hard times prevailing in their
eastern haunts, and Mayor Rowan has
asked that the police force be increased
by twenty men. Ii the facts are as
stated there is no reason why the recon-
mendation should not be carried out,
but the proposal would probably meet
with warmer support if there was any
assurance that an even proportion OF the
new appointees would be selected from
the Democracy. Under the present

EUROPEAN BEET SUGAR.
A Probable Net Excess In Production
over 1892. M


LONDON. Sept. 6.-Data obtainable
from reliable sources on the prospective
supplies OF European beet taugar from the
crop of 1893 considerably modify the
estimate of the Agriculture Rationelle Of
Brussels. Inquiries made By represen-
tative of the Associated Press have OBJ
tanned a concurrent expression OF opin-
ion. All the estimates must be taken
subject to deduction according as the
weather from now till the crop is COM
p'eted may favor or ipjure the roots.
The weather Influences, therefore, may
alter the estimates one way or the
other, even by several hundred thousand
pounds. Thepresent prospect appears to
justify the expectation Of deficiency in
France of rs, 900 tons. and in Holland OF
5000 tons. the yield in Belgium will
not differ from the yield of 1892. 1t is
probable there will be an excess in Rus
sia of 200, 900 tons; in Austro-Hungary
of 100, ,000 tens, and in Germany of 1885,
600 tons, making a probable net excess
over the yield of 1892 of 345.000 tons.

An Incident Witnessed on the Court

There is man in Los Angeles who
deserves to be held mp to public scorn.
He was In the court house grounds
yesterday morning at IL o. o'clock, trund-
ling baby carriage. There was baby
in the carriage, and q little boy about
2 years old played around.
The man was showing the carriage in

When she reached the fellow he said

II trundled rapidly along the cement
walk toward the sloping lawn, and the
woman ran after 1t. She managed to
stop it just as the carriage reached the
curb and would have spilled the baby
out. The fellow had followed along, and
while the mother was trying to quiet
the child, he took it roughly from her
arms and tossed distance of FIVE or six
feet into the carriage. 1t fell against
the side and was bruised by the brutal
throw.
The poor woman seemed to be par
alyzed by fear of the shameless fellow,
but went to her child and aoothed it the
best she could.
Her lord and master followed along
behind her as che showed the baby car
riage along, and was evidently reeling
off ugly remarks. ae
The scene was witnessed by several
people, and if he had remained on the
court house grounds q minute or two
longer the officers would have been able

THE ASSOCIATION.

Orange Growers Co-Operstive Union
About Perfected.
The manner in which the orange grow
ers have taken hold Of the work of or
ganization has fully justified the predic-
tion that there was experience and
brains enough among them to handle
their business in such practical man
ner as to insure the succesa of the moye-
ment.
The meeting held in Los Angeles last
Tuesday adopted scheme OF work be-
tween the various associations by group
ing them together in districts, each OF
these districts sending a representative
to form an executive board of control to
supervise the general affairs of the whole,
thua providing o plan for harmonious
working among all the integral parts
without friction, the essential prin ci-
pies OF which are union and co-opera-
tion.
From the explanation had of this
scheme or plan it is believed il is
thoroughly practicable. Doubtless ex-
perience may discover some weak spots,
but the orange growers are so we'll con-
vinced of the necessity of their organi-
2ation that they will speedily correct
any weakness in their plan that time or
experience may develop.
But to reap the fullest benefit the
coming season, they must yet do some
hard and earnest work. The season is
rapidly advancing, and the shipping
season will soon be here. The signatures
of the growers must all be secured, the
organizations, both local and district, be
completed, and the managers appointed,
20 that a careful estimate of each grow
er's crop can be secured, so that orders
for boxing and other materials may be
placed by the executive board of control
for the amount that may be required by
the local associations. thus bringing
ali the orders together into one, which
will secure the most advantageous
prices and terms. But it is essential
that this work be done carefully and
just as soon as possible. Then, again,
the managers must don their harness
and become accustomed to it and &C.
quire solle knowledge of the market
conditions anc requirements. Through
them the district boards of exchange are
formed by whom the executive board of
control, the court of appeal and final
adjudication, as it were, ie selected from
among the managers. So that in fact,
until the local associations complete
their organizations little more can be
done.
Hurry up, gentlemenl Remember
that the eyes of the growers, as well as
the country at large, are on you. The
interests involved are too vast to be dis
regarded. The future prosperity OF
Southern California hangs in large
measure on the success of this under
taking.

THAT portion of the mayors message
