The very active interest our mer-
chants and other business men are tax.
ing in getting up carnival week will,
we have no doubt. be crowned with sue
cess. The money required to meet the
outlay OF such a public fiesta as is con-
templsted will not only be well spent,
but it will be returned many fold to the
city through diverse channels. But,
after all, it ia not in its pecunisry ad-
vantage alone that we should look upon
O movement of this kind. 1t will afford
an infinite degree of pleasure, not only
to our own people, but to all who come
here to enjoy the fine spectacles and
grand psgeants that will be given. 1t
will be such a season OF diversion as
we have never had in Los Angeles
before, and it will add to our
good fame abroad the same as Msrdi
Gras has to New Orleans and the yearly
festivities to st. Louis. If we succeed
in making LA fiesta de la Reins de
Los Angeles" prominent SUCCESS the
first year. it will become a permanent
institution, and spread our fame abroad
as a city that is not given over to d
ceaseless round of business care. And
that is something to be desired in this
work-aday world Of ours.

Hon. JAMES NJ. FRANCIS, editor OF the
Troy Times, who has been in this part
of the state for several weeks, started
with General Chetlain for San Francis
co, vis Santa Barbara, on Tuesday. Mr..
Francis is no ordinary visitor. He is q
gentleman of keen observation and ex-
tensive travel. Having been successive
ly United States minister to Greece to
Portugal and to Austria, he is splendidly
equipped to send to his widely circu-
lated paper valuable observations about
the advantages and resources Of our
state. His impressions of Southern
California are greatly in our favor, and he
believes that our city has future OF the
finest promise. That Southern Csl5for-
MIA is exciting unusual interest in the
transmontane states ia evidenced by the
fact that the great newspapers of
that part of the country have
been more than usually alert of
late in sending their most relia-
BILE representatives. to this coast in order
to crafty the great desire OF their read
ers to have intelligent accounts OF the
exact situation here. Never before has
Los Angeles been visited by go many
leading editors and newspaper writer's
as it has this season, and we may here
after look to find a more accurate and
intelligent treatment of California in
the eastern press than has been the case
heretofore. General Chetlsin. who is q
keen observer and gentleman OF great
experience in noting the factors that
induce immigration, said to US the other
day that he lie firmly of the opinion that
there will be hegira to California OF
immense proportions in the next few
years, and that Los Angeles, from her
situation, is destined to become one of
the great cities of the United States.

Superior Court DscisiOns-The New
Sunday ordinance

Superior Court DecisfOns-The New
Sunday Ordinance.
SAN BERNARDINo, Feb. 2S.-The case
of the Citrus Belt Irrigation district vs.
the county recorder was decided this
morning by Judge Otis OF the superior
court. 1t was mandamus to compel
the defendant to file certificates of sale
for the district without the payment of
the legal fees. Judgment was given in
favor OF the defendant.
The case of j. ]. Arbois against the
county of San Bernardino was decided
bv Judge Otis in favor of the defendant.
Arbois claimed mileage as constable
both ways in going to arrest criminSl
and in returning him to the county Jail,
but the decision allowed him mileage
but one way.
The city trustees passed a sweeping
ordinance closing all classes of bust
ness on Sundays, and it is now
law. The only kinds of business al
lowed to keep open are hotels, restau-
rants, baths, retail drug stores, livery
and feed stables. railroads and telegraph
Offices, undertskers and physicians,
street car lines, the sale of milk for inn
mediate use, printing and distributing
wspapers; and the business of retail
drug stores shall be considered only that
of dealing in drugs medicines and medi-
cal and surgical appliances. Numerous
petitions were presented to the board
prior to the passage of the ordinance
both for and against the measure, and
the city hall was packed with specta.
tors. The vote stood three to one in
favor of the final passage of the ordi-
nance

The railroad rate war that opens today
days more by the Southern Pacific and
other roads, ought to result in an un-
precedented immigration to this state.
1t needed but low rates of transporta-
ton, added to the rigorous winter and
terrible business depression at the east,
to send food of people to the Pacific
coast from the populous centers on the
other side of the continent. We are
aware that the increased facilities which
the rate war will create for all classes OF
people to get here will bring us a per-
centage of immigrants not altogether de-
sirable: but the bulk of them will be OF
q claea whose accession to our popula-
ton will be beneficial. There ie an un.
usual degree of unrest amongst the
middle classes of the east just now.
They want to make a change for the
better, and they know that the Pacific
coast is the most prosperous portion o.
the union and has q future far more
promising than any of the older sections
of the country. They foresee a good
chance to grow up with the prosperity
in store for the Pacific coast, and viii
gladly cast their lot with us. 1t is the
fashion to depreoate booms but booms

meth not to the contrary.
Last September the HERALD told the
farmers of Los Angeles county that they
were face to face with year of scant
but sufficient rainfall. This journal ad-
vised them to SOW and plant early.
They followed this sagacious counsel.
lad that is the reason why very trif-
ing additional rainfall will this year
give them abundant crops.
As conclusion to our dissertation on
crops and weather we may state that
the average rainfall of Los Angeles

present season has been within a tritie
of eighteen inches.

The world has waited with great
patience to hear of a naval engagement
between the feet of the Brazilian gov
ernment and that of the insurgents.
We have been assured ON various occa-
sions that the Aquidaban, the Repub-
lica and the other insurgent vessels had
gone out of Rio harbor to intercept and
fight the Nictheroy and her consorts and
the vessels that had been built in France
for the Brazilian government. But
either the purchased vessels could not
be found, or they had taken secure
refuge inside of some protected harbor.
Great things were expected of the Mic
theroy with her dynamite gun, but 30
far che has successfully avoided an
engagement. 1t is now again said that
the Aquidaban, in response to sigma Is
from the Republica outside of Rio
harbor, has run the gauntlet of the fire
of the government forts and joined the
latter vessel to go IN quest OF Peixoto's
vessels and bring on the long expected
fight. Admiral Mello is again in com
mand OF the feet, and there is little
doubt about the desire OF this COM
mander to bring on an engagement.
The new feet of Peixoto started out
with a great flourish of trumpets, but
that seems to be all there was to it.
Naval men are very anxious to see what
execution can be done with the dyna-
mite gun, but 20 Jar the commander of
the Nictheroy haa been too successful
in eludinG combat to add anything to
our knowledge OF the effectiveness in a
sea fight of this much.vaunted weapon
OF destruction. II Mello's present
movement should result in an encoun-
ter we shall soon learn the value Of
this gun in action.

], CLUTE WILMERDING'S WILL
What Liquor Dealer Did
With His Wealth.
Magnificent Bequests to Charitable
Institutions.
Four Hundred Thousand Dollars Given
to the State University for
Manual Training school
for Boys.
By the Associated Press

By the Associated Press
SAN Francisco, Feb. 2S.-The will OF
the late ]. Cluts Wilmerding, who for
years was known as one of the leading
wholesale liquor dealers of the Pacific
coaHt, was fled for probate today. His
estate is estimated to be worth about
$4,000. 900.
Provision is made for the founding OF
a school of industrial arts in connection
with the university of California, at a
cost of 100000. The specific legscies
amount to s1,545, 900. Among his two
brothers and four sisters, all living In
New York, is divided 1915, 900; to his
nephew, Henry w. Payne of New York
is bequeathed 5000, 900.
A large number of more distant rela-
tives are also generously remembered.
BeQuests to public institutions are
as followss The Protestant orphan
asylum, San Francisco, $4,000; San
Francisco hospital for children, $lO,O0O; /;
Golden Gate kindergarten, 100000 30
ciety for the Prevention of Cruelty to
Animals, $4,000.
The most interesting bequest, in a
public sense, is that of 100000 to the
regents of the University of California
to establish and maintain 8 school to be
called the Wilmarding school OF indus
trial arts, to teach boys trades fitting
them to make living with their hands.
The residue of the estate is bequeathed
to Lucius X. Wilmarding and Henry W.
Payne, share and share alike. Among
relatives to whom bequests are made is
his cousin, Felix Tracy of Sacramento,

A WASHINGTON dispatch says that it

on foreign relations to take up Morgan g
bill for the reorganization of the Nicar-
aqua canal project during the present
session. 1t is to be hoped that some
thing effective will be done soon to in
fuse life into this supTemely important
work. Nothing could do more to benefit
the Pacific states than the completion of
this canal. 1t would revolutionize the
