A COUNTRY WITH RESOURCES.

The Return of Party From Southern
Nevada and Utah.
e. I. 10y, W. H. Gross and DR.. Wake
field returned Thursday evening from
q trip to Las Vegas valley, up in Me-
vada. They went to see the territory
lying along the proposed route of the
Southern Nevada railway, and they
bring back glowing accounts OF what
resources the country is possessed OF.
BY way of ILLUSTRATION they returned
with several varieties of fruit, which are
equal to any seen in this market. They
consist of aprles, grapes, pears, Age and
almonds. The grapes are very swe ct
and are said to contain per cant more
sugar than those raised elsewhere.
These evidences show that the country
run ia rich in agricultural resources and
will indicate what Los Angeles may ex-
poet to develop in the near future.
The gentlemen also relate little ex-
perience which they encountered that
nearly had serious termination. They
had Htarted from the Stewart ranch to
drive across the valley to Timber noun
tain, TO inspect the character of treea
growing there. 1t was last Saturday
when they started, and the day wss eK-
eesdingly hot, much after the day in
Los Angeles. They missed the way to
water in some manner or another, and
had to turn back and return home.
They were l6 hours without water, and
they had begun TO have regular lime
kiln thirst on them when they got in.
But for watermelon in the wagon they
would have had much suffering.
Mr.. 10y saye that he met many peo-
pie going into the country to secure in
vsatments. Some were after land and
others wanted mining property. At
Bake station, on the Atlantic and Pa
cifc, no met two men from Chicago,

were in the neigh borhoed of $500, while
tbs receipts for July on licenses handed
over the city clerks counterwifi amount
to $1,000, or double tho revenue OF last
month. During the month a deputy
license inspector has been at york dig
ging up all parties who are liable to the
payment of license, and compelling
them TO do the same. The city ordi-
nance requires that the police shall en-
force the provisions of the liosnse ordi-
nance, but they have neglected to do &C
as far as results are concerned. As this
means plain negligence of duty, there ia

The residents OF the East Side and in

Their grievance is the sewage matter

Las Posas, thus exposing large COM
munity of people to the dangers of in

plant has been made to the health
officer, the supervisors and the council,
but they are unit in observing a mas
terly policy of doing nothing. The
stencil from this refuse Is at times some
thing wild and terrible, and within the
past three months quite number of
typhoid cases have developed ia the
vicinity of the district drained by the
Arroyo Las Posas, into which this
sewage filth, resking with the germs OF
innumerable diseases, emptjes. By the
expenditure of a few hundred dollars
the council and the supervisors can pre-
vent this dangerous menace to ,the pub
lie health, by the construction Of
sewer two or three blocks long. The
citizens in the district mentioned now
propose to take vigorous actien to COM
