to use vulgar phrase. they are onto
it," They know its columns are for sale
to the highest bidder. and that Hunting
ton absolutely controls its opinions. Its
foolish and stupid reiterstion OF the
charge that Patton lie railroad candidate
deceives no one. Every man OF intelli-
gence who keeps a run oil public affairs
knows that the railroad made desperate
efforts 90 defeat him for the congress-
ional nomination, and that every little
purchasable railroad sheet in the dis
trict haze been turned loose by Hunting
ton to bark at his heels. Many of them
are more original in their lies than the
Express; few ere more zsalous and none
more stupid.
When Mr.. Huntington's organ advises
the voters to support McLachlan in 1884,
because he is opposed to the Southern
Pacific and in favor of deep-water har.
Dor at San Pedro, it is just as honest az
it was in 1892. when it urged the voters
to support Mr.. Lindlev. and we presume
no one doubts how Mr.. Lindley wonld
have voted on the Reilly funding bill or
where he would have located the deep
water harbor had he been elected. As
to the daily abuse OF Senator White, Of
course that is mere spite, because it's ed
itor thinks Senator White caused his

THAT so, 900 APPROPRIATION.

San Pedro harbor gets no appropria-
ton this year. For this Senator White
is held responsible by people who are
unacquainted with the facts, which are
these: In the river and harbor appro-
priation bill, house bill, $4,000 was
appropriated to San Pedro. The bill
passed the house. went over to the sen-
ate and passed that body. the San Pedro
clause remaining in it. The bill was
referred to the conference committee OF
the two. houses, and there the sppro-
priation for San Pedro was stricken
out. The reason it was stricken out
was because the conference committee
discovered that the government engi.
neers had not recommended such appro-
pration, and. of course, the committee
cut il from the bill. Senator White did
his full duty in the premises. and could
not possibly have had the appropriation
retained in the bill by the conference
committee in the face of the report of
the secretary OF war, which read as fol-
lows: with the expenditure OF the
amount now on hand the present pro-
ject will be completed. No further ap-
preparation is asked for at this time, as
it desired first to ascertain fully the eff
fects OF the operations now in progress
in securing the desired depth at the en-
trance, A survey of the entire harbor is

A BULLET IN HIS BRAIN.
A FRENCHMAN KILLS HIMSELF IN
THE STREET.
His Name Thought to Be jean Bord es.
There IL but Eittle Known of
tho Suicide His Tragic
Taking OF.

Jean Bordes, Frenchman, purchased
five cents worth of green fruit at 2;30
O'Clock yesterday afternoon, and imme
diatsly blew his brains out with a revol.
yer. He got the fruit at Main and Ar
cadia streets and walked to Los Angeles
street. where, without warning, he drew
a 44-caliber bulldog revolver, placed it
to his right temple and fired.
Although the bullet smashed through
the unfortunate mans Drain, he lived
long enough to be taken to the receiving
hospital. After falling to the sidewalk
he never regained consciousness, and
died with the secret of his death in his
heart.
But little could be learned of the sui
eide. He had a letter upon his person
addressed to himself at 223 Commercial
street. but nothing is known of him at
the address. The letter was postmarked
San Bernardino.
Bordss is thought to have been resi-
dent of the city for some time, as he has
been seen on the street very frequently.
Coroner Gates will hold an inquest
upon the body this morning at the un-
dertaking rooms of Orr & Patterson.

Tho Princess OF Wales Makes Her Debut

LONDON, Dot. 22.-The apparently
authorized announcements this week
that the princess of Wales and her
daughters have taken to riding tricYcles
is expected to give tremendous boom
to the manufacture of that class of cvcl-
ing machine. which has been in q state
OF decline for several years. Polite
society has always profesHed to regard
cycling with scorn. as an essentially vul-
gar and plebeian form OF exercise and
amusement The princess. having set
the fashion, fashionable danes and their
middle class imitators are bound to fol-
low it. Much qualification is expressed
that the princess did not take to the

abuse OF which have brought great
deal of undeserved ridicule upon this
form OF healthy recreation, to benefit
solely the artists and writer's for comic

The ssininity of protectionists is
never better exhibited than In the tes-
timony they produce to sustain their
fading theory. Witness the following:
The free trade attorneys tell US that
protection does not protect the Ameri-
can farmer, and that low tariffs en-
nance the price of agricultural products.
The following business announcement
sent from Montreal. Canada, to large
feed establishment in Jersey City soon
after the passage OF our new tariff law
tells a somewhat different story:
MONTREAL. Canada, Aug. 30.-Deer
Sir: With the reduction in the tariff |
timothy. from $17.25 to $1425."
In this case, did the Canadian dealer
or the American consumer pay the duty
before it was reduced? If the Ameri-
can coneumer paid it. why did the
Canadian dealer reduce his price? p
Los Angeles Times, Oct. 20, 1894.
The letter quoted from by our protec.
Zionist contemporary furnishes the beat
evidence that the American consum er
has been paying the tariff tax on the
nay. Else why would he Immediately
become the beneficiary of the reduc-
ton? The form of quotation that hay
dealer used is the very common one
with heavy dealers in staple articles, of
making price for their goods +. o. b. at
point OF delivery, which shall include
.he value OF the thing at place OF de-
parture and all expenses OF getting it to
he customer. Our protectionist oracle
,ither did not know this, or perversely
ignored it.
Free traders never tell the farmerH that
low tariffs enhance the price OF sgricult-
ural products. Free traders are logical.
protectionists are not. The former claim

tariffs increase the purchaaing power OF
the farmers products, because they

articles that 60 to make up the great
volume OF farmers products, like wool.
cereals. beef, pork. cotton, ETC., have
their prices fixed in the competitive

BACK FROM ALASKA.


A Pasadena Prospector's Account of
That Wonderland.
SAN Francisco, Oct. 22.-Among the
passengers OF the i'll -fated steamer
Bertha. arrived at this port from Alaska,
was party of Cslifornians. who left
here three months ago on prospecting
tour through the tabled land of gold.
After enduring incredible hardships in q
journey of many hundreds of miles
over bleak lands. snow and ice. the
travellers have returned to their native
shores rich in experience and hope.
R. F. Obsrlsnder of Pasadena, one OF
the party, an energetic young man, who,
despite his experience in Alaska, holds
that country in high regard, says he is
convinced that its future ie full of prom
Use, and that eventually Alaska will be
known as one OF the greatest gold pro-
ducing countries in the world.
Mr.. Oberlander states that on the way
down the Yukon river he saw burning
coal mine, which had been in q state
of ignition for more than three years.
The scsne was beautiful one at night,
the effect being to light up the sky with
rudy glare, while during the day the
light of the sun was obscuyed by dense
clouds of smoke. Near this burning
mine is located an immense deposit of
tuaks and bones, the remains of NAM
moths which had probably made this
their feeding ground in ages gone by.
while at Birch creek" said Mr.
Oberlander, II was informed of the dis
covery of wonderful cave by miner
named Shuman. 1 was unable to visit
the cave. which ia located 40 miles above
Mastodon creek. Shumsn states that
his cave ia 80 feet in length, and varies
from 4 to 70 feet in width. After entering
through small aperture. the sides of
which are composed of granite, one
emerges into solid ice chamber, from
which hang numerous stalactites glis-
tening like silver. Shuman was sur
prised to find that there were q NUM- eI
of air currents in the cave. the source of
which he could not determine. At one
side he found black bear sitting partly
upright. The sight OF the animal
alarmed him greatly at first, but failing
to detect any signs of life. he approached
it and found that the bear was frozen
stiff in block of ice. He took his ak
and chopped piece off the animal.
Picking up portions he found that it
crumbled at his touch. Similar caves,
some large. others small, have been dis
covered about Birch creek"
