to bring about what Mr.. Cleveland seems
to fear might follow the passage Of the
Bland eeigniorage bill.
1t is hardly to be believed that the
bankers of the country, at the dictation
of Wall street, would have pursued that
vindictive course had the Bland bill
become q law; but such is the assumed
apprehension of Mr.. Cleveland. How.

THE funeral Of Frank j. Carpenter, an

geles. took place yesterday. Mr.. Car
penter was a pioneer resident of this
city, where he raised large family, and
was held in universal esteem for his
sterling and steady qualities. He To-
Gated in this city in 1850, and acquired
at an early day property that became
very valuable. He owned the whole
frontage of the north side OF First street
from Spring to Broa 1way, and sold it
all, or nearly all, dur ing the boom at
very satisfactory prices. He was for
many years on the police force of this
city and was always considered one OF
it's most reliable and efficient members.
Frank j. Carpenter was a brother Of
Lemuel Carpenter, who at one time
owned the Santa Gertrudes rancho, a
great tract OF land that now includes
Downey City, Los Nietos, Fulton Wells,
or Santa Fe Springs. and some of the
richest farms in Los Angeles county.
Lemuel settled here in 1916, and died
in the '60's.

The insurrection in this city yester-
day, and the seizure of the city govern
ment by mob of people masked and
disguised, is one of the most daring and
successful raids ever made in any city.
Our police bsttled bravely to save Los
Angeles from this last and most bitter
humiliation, but the enemy was too
much for them, and our city government
was "stood up," and its duly elected
officers compelled to abdicate. What
