The members of the city council were
30 absorbed yesterday In thinking
about that resolution of sympathy with
the Southern Pacific Santa Monica
scheme passed Monday week ago
that they forgot to reconsider the mat
ter and set themselves right again
with the people. But when election day
rolls around once more the absorption
of the people will not be of the kind
to beget observation-disclosures in so far as
these councilmen are concerned. AS n
matter of fact, it is not the business OF
the city council to adopt resolutions of
any kind regarding the harbor contro-
versy, but if the body was bent upon ex-
pressing itself on the subject it should
have given forth an utterance that
would accord with the sentiments en-
tertained by the public of this city.
Instead of doing this, it adopted reso-
luton that outrageously misrepresents
local public opinion. The members re-
spOnsible for this abuse of official sta
tion have set loose a chicken that is
bound to come home to roost at amost
inopportune time-for them
The herald., 1896-04-14

Councilman Snyder lost a brilliant
opportunity of showing how different
he is from some other members of the
municipal legislature by being absent
from yesterdays session. 1t was his
duty to have been there and forced the
issue of that double harbor" resolution
when the minutes of the previous meet
ing came up for approval. The place
for councilman on council day is in
the council chamber.

How anybody can see any an
nexation promise in the reference
to Hawaii of the Republican plat
form is something no other fellow
can understand. "The Hawaiian
Islands should be controlled by
the United States and no foreign
power should be permitted to in
terfere with them" That is a
doctrine as old as the hills, and a
doctrine of non-interference on the
part of the United States, with
regard to our internal affairs, as
much as anything else. The
United States now possess control
of the foreign relations of these
islands. Appeals of prominent
Republican organs for definite
annexation policy in the platform
have passed unheeded by the
party managers at st. Louis.

A handicap of $50 yards in a
two-mile bicycle race is simply
ridiculous. 1t ought to give the
race to a mere novice, while it is a
pudding" for anyone who has
staying powers for a mile race
such as we have here. In the
case on Saturday referred to, the
favored one had actually wanted
400 yards advantage, so that the
$50 yards was a compromise.
Unless a contestant can enter at
not more than so yards handicap
he should not be allowed to enter
at all. ozark horses" should be
excluded in some way from handi-
cap races, as their advent by sur
prise spoils popular interest in a
race. If a rule to make handicaps
on records solely were adopted it
might be a remedy.

wanters than we know what

few minutes. It's the shoppers
and buyers that make us
happy. If the rush continues
the force of clerks will be
enlarged. Advertising suits us.

Hydroelectric Power.

There are not many instances from
which reliable data Of actual working
can be had. Geneva, with but one-eight-
ieth Of the population Of London, has
system which gives her hydraulic
power and electric light at small pro-
portion Of the price in London. 1t can
be had for one-third the London price
at points close to falls, and is far cheap
or than gas. But, alas, we have not the
Swiss mountains, with their many
gorges, at our doors, and il we seek the
distant sources the problems of trans
mission come in.
AS to capital cost, water power plant
of modern design and suitable for quite
small falls may be constructed at el9
TO $40 per horsepower. For large in
stallations the capital cost is but el0 or
so. The steam engine on similar basis
would cost e20 to e25, and Dowson's gas
engine system about el7. At moderate
efficiency the water power will involve
working expenditure of about So to GA
per horsepower per annum, the steam
engine Of f8 and the Dowson gas engine
Of e6 los, assuming the engine to be
worked 5000 hours in the year. In
working an electric light station the
efficiency of the steam engine is low,
for reasons which need not be discussed
here, so that it is apparent that, given
a fall, power can easily be got for the
same capital outlay as for other motors,
in some cases for much less. while the
working cost is only one-half. Good

Ravages of Absinth.

NJ. Rochefort's recent advocacy OF
temperance has directed attention to the
consumption of absinth in France, and
some startling statements in connection
Herewith are being made. Men as q
rule take the absinth diluted in water,
slipping it slowly. But the women. to
the CONSERVATION Of the doctors, insist,
rs rule, on drinking it meat, with
most terrible results to their constitu-
.tions. The number of brilliant men
whom France has lost through the abuse
Of the opalescent but poisonous fluid,
from the great poet Alfred de Musset,
who used to be picked up drunk and
half dead every night in the streets, down
to the celebrated artist and caricaturist,
Andre Gill, is simply appalling. An
idea Of the extent of the evil may be
gathered from the recent returns of the
ministry of finance, which show that at
the present moment there is a marchand
de vim, or French absinth seller, to ev-
cry three houses in the French metropo-
lis s-Westminster Gazette.

To Run the Gantiet.

"To rum the gantlet" originated in
Germany and travelled thence to Eng
land, finally becoming domesticated in
America. In both the German and Eng
lish armies and navies, about the time
Of the settlement Of America, running
the gantlet was punishment for mis-
demeanor, the soldiers Of a company or
regiment being placed in two lines fac
ing each other, each man armed with q
switch. The culprit ran between the
two files and received upon his bare
back the switches Of his comrades. An
officer stood by to see that the punish
ment was properly enforced, and any
soldier who failed to do his duty was
himself liable to make the journey be-
tween the two files. The Indians along
the coast of Virginia are said to have
observed this punishment inflicted upon
some sailors of am English man-of-war
and Immediately adopted the idea for
torturing their enemies. Hence came the
belief that the punishment or torture
was peculiar to the aborigines of North
America

Thomas Hardy, the novelist. is thus
described by writer who has recently
met him: His cheeks are slightly
sunken and his skin is sallow, speaking
of sedentary labors, the midnight lamp
and of constitution that could not
support the sustained strain of an ardu-
GUS task. Yet his eyes tell another tale
and possess that phosphorescent light
that indicates energy. The solution of
these contradictory remarks must be
that he is mentally as robust as he is
physically delicate.
