THE HERALD naturally depreca.es any
such personal episode as occurred be-
ween Hon. T. E. Gibbon and the Hon.
John W. Mitchell in the grill room of
the Palace hotel. Still, as an undoubted
interest attaches to this rencounter, we
reproduce the account given OF the affair
by tine Chronicle. In that account the
amazing statement is made that Mr..
Mitchell "bit" Mr.. Gibbon. This was a
typographical error, the reporter
having intended TO say that Mr..
Mitchell shit" Mr.. Gibbon. The whole
OF this mistake is refsrable to an unfor-
tunate error of the com positor, who
picked up b instead OF an b. These
things are liable to happen in the best
regulated composing rooms. Talking OF

free from drouth. In those seventeen
years, in which the people OF this
county have had all, or more than all
the rain they needed, to mature all the
crops known anywhere on the footstool,
there have been at least three or four
years of 6routh known in New York,
Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana and Miss
ouri. Drouth is such usual thing in
the east that farmers only calculate on
about two good crops out of five. with
two half crops and one total failure.
And yet here we are in this memor.
able sub-tropic region, in which, with
irrigation, the truck gardener can get
from three to four crops year oi po-
tatoes, beans and green peas. Some day
the wonderful spontsneity of the region
surrounding Los Angeles will cause its
lands to sell for incredible figures. The
report of the United States commission,
headed by Gen. Alexander of the Uni
ted States corps Of engineers, shows that
irrigated lands sold in old Spain for
$1,000 an acre, while unirrigated lands
sold for only sl5 an acre. What will
the figures be in this enterprising and
progressive region of the United States
when we shall have realized our destiny.
and got down to our genuine work OF
development 1t will be hard to FORE
cast the future OF this section during the
next seventeen years. 1t will surely be

A MOST ENCoUR RAGING PROSPECT.

1t is subject OF great regret th st the
meteorological records of Southern
California are OF such recent dste. They
not only do not date back to the Ameri-
can occupation of this state. but they
can only bs regarded as reliable eince
the establishment of the signal service
bureau here. The present season is ex-
ceptional in every respect. First, we
had the unquestioned drouth, which is
here always SO slated as to appear to
embrace two bad vears. Thus, the un-
questioned dry year from which we
have emerged will be known as the sea-
son OF 1S93-94, producing the impression
that we have already passed through
two dry years, misspprehension which
is owing to the fact that seasons
rainfall in Southern California is sup
posed to begin in October or November
of one year, and to end in May OF the
next. Thus, to state the proposition
correctly, we are already in the season
OF 1S94-95, and We have arrived within
a few weeks of the time when an intel
ligent forecast can be made of the COM
ing season. Thus far it is too early to
hazard a judgment of what may be
ahead.
There is no question OF the fact that
this section suffered in an unexampled
manner from the drouth OF last season.
While it was not without precedent
being exceeded by the drouth OF 1S76-77
and possibly by one some twelve or thir.
teen years eaylisr-it was a most dis
tress:ng visitation. We do not attach
much importance to the data collected
concerning it, because at that time there
were no reliable statistics com piled in
regard to it. as it antedatsd the location
OF the signal service in our midst Mr..
@. Ducommun aud other enterprising
citizens were in the habit OF compiling
meteorological statistics, and through
these we learn that the total rainfall for
1857 was So inches. During the
present season we have reached within
fraction of seven inches. Thus we are
enabled to reach the gratifying conclu-
sion that We have far exceeded, during
the present season, that of 1857. This
OF itself means great deal.
y means that We have had seventeen
years in Los Angeles county absolutely
