Los ANGELES is . growing rival to San
Francisco in q commercial and metro
politan sense. and it was never the In
tention of this community to take an
unfair advantage Of her sister city by
the sea. Inadvertently, however. Los
Angeles has interfersd with the affairs
Of the Bay City most seriously; che has
unintentionally knocked out the pro-
posed new charter OF that city by pro.
viding cne of her prominent citizens as
freeholdsr. President Hellman Of the
Nevada bank, who Is also president OF
the Farmers and Merchants bank Of
this city, and who was elected as one OF
the board of freeholders to frame new
charter for San Francisco, 10 now de-
clsred disqualified because he has not
bsen a resident five years. The fact that
he cannot qualify, and the further fact
that no other candidate can be substi-
tutsd, nullities the election, and pre-.
vents the framing Of the charter. We
are guilty, but without malice afore'
thought.

Nnw the rtsn, for Action.

From the Hanford Daily DemocTat
The Fresno, VisaliA and Bakersfield news
papers are falling into line and advocating a
railroad to Los Angeles The people of Mer-
ced, Stanislaus and san Joaquin are also losing
faith in the Tr ffc association proposition, but
as they now have river competition they are
not suffering from the heavy freight tolls i'm
pos on the people farther south. With
united effort the part OF the citizens of
Fresno, Visalia, Tulare, Hauford and Bakers
field, it is possible that the construction of q
railroad NAV soon be under way between those
cities and Los Angeles. And now is the time
for action. Los Angeles is rapidly filling up
with eastern visitors, men who have capital,
and an influence that can interest monied
ccnters in any legitimate enterprise. Let these
men once be satisfied that there is no impass-
able barrier, in the shap pc of inaccessible noun
tains, between the San Joaquin valley and Los
Angeles and the work OF securing capital is
half accomplished. The Southern Pacific was
constructed over the Tehachipa mountains on
a grade OF over 1l6 ct to the mile, and in
places it exceeds that. The editor of the Demo-
crat agrees to guarantee a road across these
same mountains on which the grade shall at
no point exceed 80 feet to the mile and that is
only al one point and for a short distance; the
remainder OF the grade berg not more than
80 feet Los Angeles being made aware OF
these favorable conditions for railroad con-
struction would eagerly take hold of the mat
ter, and in lie S than 60 days enough capital
stock would be subscrib bed to put the project
on It's feet What say our friends of Fresno
Visslia and Tuare. shall ar earnest move be
made in the matter?

Philbrook should be discharged and let Mr.
Justice Harrison settle the matter with Mr..

THE LABOR MARKET.

Several Thousand manufacturers for

November this year, in 1893 and in
1892, to Dun's Review, from which the
etatsticans OF that publication max Q
very encouraging comparisons OF earn
inga for that month, showing an in
crease in total payments Of 1872 per
cent over last year, but decrease of
1873 per cent in comparison with 1892.
A statement of hands employed shows
that in the same establish hments 10 2
per cent more persons were employed
than year ago. but 8 6 per cent less
than in 1892. The average OF earnings
for over 250 900 hands is per cent larg-.
er than in 1898. but 14l4 per cent less
than in 1892, and this statement takes
no account OF houra OF work in the
months compared or OF the establish
ments not working at all this year. In
come of the industries more hands are
at work than in 1892, bat in others the
decrease is large. Contradictory changes

some branches nor the depression of

ooeENr objection to the proposed

A coGENT objection to the proposed
ordinance granting franchise for an
electric street railway along Figueroa,
Pearl. Sixth, Fifth, Ninth and Spring
streets, is involved in the assertion tina
it is "blsnket" right of way, capa BILE
OF being used by the grantees for speou-
lstive purposes. 1t is urged that the
clause providing that the railroad line
shall be fully equipped and completed
within two years from the date OF the
approval OF the ordinance is not suffi-
tiently restrictive. and that il the COR
poration is honest in its expressed de-
eire to operate only for the public benefit,
1t will not oppose the insertion OF an
amendment providing for the compile.
tion OF the road within more reason
able time than two years. There is no
honest reason why the city's domain
should be delivered into the hands of
brokers. or why it should be held in

BEHIND ONCE AGAIN
WRIGGLING AND SQUIRMING OF A
WEAK CONTEMPORARY.
How II Copied the "Horald's" News.
"scooped" Repeatedly In tho
Robbery Gases.

The Times yesterday morning
characterizss As q "fake" the story Of
train robber Johnson's possession of
knife and money, published exclusively
in the HERALD the day before, and In
the same article admits the accurate
truthiulness of every assertion made by
the HERALD regarding the matter, even
totrihing details. with the single sxoep.
tion that the amount of money stated to
have been found ON johnson was larger
than the erm actually discovered. Tn Q
discrepancy is accounted for by the fact
that exclusive newe 10 likely to be hur-
riedly written and an inaccuratsly writ
ten Il" may be mistaken for ~"
1t is a striking fact that the out.of-
dste contemporary admitted the truth
fulness OF the story when it said that
this knife and money had been found
upon The trsinrobber. For what pur.
pose would he carry 500 sewsd in his
clothing and q knife If he had no jnten-
tion Of escaping?
The HERALD stated that the money
and knife were found upon Johnson.
So did the Times--the next day.
The HERALD said the prisoners were
not allowed knives and money in their
cells. So did the rimes-the next day.
The HERALD stated that the money
and knife had probably been smuggled
in to the prisoner by his vile or friends.
So did the Times<-the next day.
The HERALD published the fact that
the jaior promptly took the articles
from Johnson.
So did the Times-the next day.
The HERALD said 500 were found,
when it should have said 500. The
Timea-the next dav, as usual--nsists
that it WAS both 80 cents and $500
dollars," and that the money was
given back to his wife," and also "tha
it was placed in the safe to his credit"
After dilgent comparison OF the
two accounts. it must be admitted that
the HERALD's version is the more accu-
rate. even though the Times put in a
days work on the story printed in the
HERALD the day before.
II the Times desires to establish
reputation Tor accuracy. it must copy
HERALD news more carefully. Oppor-
tunity tor practice is offered in yester-
days HERALD in the column article on
the matter OF the Smith arrest. The

FROM the New \ ORR sun.
That canal between the Atlantic and Pa.
este must be built, and that the Nicaragua
route is the one that most commends itself to
Americans, are points that need no discussion.
The new feature of the question is the demon
stration that private enterprise has not proved
adequate to the task. private company It.
tempting it must sell its securities. and the
condition OF the financial world at any time
may stop its progress. Such stopping, or the
disabling of the company from any cause, may
cause the 70 ofeiture of its charter privileges.
The primary question, then, seems to be
whether this great waterway shall be under
American control. AS 10 that, its prodigious
commercial advantages and its obvious stra e.
getic importance to the United States must sug-
gest the misfortune involved in having its
monetary control pass to the cit zens OF for

THE HERALDS TRADE REPORTS.

lish full and complete commercial rec.
ord including the reports OF tho mark.
cts OF the world and devoting special at
tention to local trade. This is nav
department in Las Angeles journalism.
and will be appreciated by the business
community. The fact that the HERALD
ia the first Los Angeles newspaper to
make a feature OF trade movements in
Southern California will surprise out
side communities, whore reports Of this
character are regarded as OF paramount
i'm portanoe. The effect of the HERALD's
example will stimulate its contempo.
raries in q similar direction and their
efforts will supplement the enterprise
of this paper. The HERALD will
lead, however, and the business
community will find our re.
ports are not only reliable, com.
prehensive and up to date in every de.
tail, but in the various departments q
daily epitoms OF the com merce OF this
section Of the state will give better indi
cation Of our growth and prosperity than
can be obtained through any OF her
channel.
1t is the intention of the HER AID to
improve every other department in ths
same manner, What the people of
Southern California have long lacked is
an intelligent presentation OF the news.
1t is proposed by the HERALD to supply
this deficiency.
The HERALD will hereafter be a news.

it's readers may depend upon the assur-
ance that if they don't see it in the
