LADIES AND BARTENDERS
Crowd Into Ventura's Halls Of Municipal
Legislation
The Sunday Closing Law Strongly Advocated
and Bitterly Opoosed-.A Beet Sugar
Factory Wanted

VENTURA, March 11.-At the meeting
Of the town board Monday night a Pc
tition asking for an ordinance closing
the saloons on Sunday was presented,
signed by 200 voters and $50 women of
Ventura.
The town hall was packed to it's ut
most capacity when the board met,
there being ladies, ministers, saloon
keepers and bar tenders, all interested
in the action the board would take.
The petitioners presented their side
through Attorneys Blackstock and An
drews, and L. Cert and John Logamar-
sino defended the saloon mems posi-
ton. A great many others took part
in the debate. which was good natured
on both sides. The board referred the
matter to the committee of the whole.
The Santa Ana Water company pre-
scented formal protest against ths
water rates as established by the board
for the ensuing year, claiming loss
thereby of $11S9
The city attorney has given his opin
ion that the rates cannot now be
changed, the law requiring the board
to fix them in February. The water
company threaten an action at law, but
have taken no step yet.

the growing of the beets. They left
last evening for Los Angeles, saying
they will return next week.

AGAINST THE CANAL

The hostility Of certain eastern pa
pers to the Nicaragua canal has in the
past been more or less yelled under
various assumptions. Most of them
have, however, indicated that under
conditions that are not likely to pre-
vail the canal might be good thing.
The New York Herald now comes out
in the pen and opposes the construc-
ton of the canal on any terms. Know
ing the slight value placed upon its
own opinion, the Herald is Inviting the
opinion OF men of some weight in their
several communities. The animus of
the New York Herald is betrayed by
the fact that it declines to publish in
terviews that point out the benefits
that must result from the construction
of the canal. In pursuing this course
the Herald is true to itself. 1t repre-.
sents the especial interests of the city
in which it is published. 1t ia as mar
row in its views as the South Carolina
statesman of ante-bellum days who
wanted to know what good great pub
lie work in other states could possibly
do South Carolina. 1t is probable that
when the Nicaragua canal is completed
it will attract some traffic which now
passes through the Suez canal and
reaches the United States through New
York. 1t will also take more or less
business from the trans-continental
railroads. 1t is not unnatural, there.
fore, that New York, Boston and Phila-
delphia, the American cities whose
trade would be the most seriously af-
fected, and in which the greater part of
the stock and bonds of the trans CONT
mental roads are held, should oppose
the construction of the American canal
But it does not follow that the much
larger part of our common country,
which would be immensely benefited
by the construction of the canal,
should accept the narrow sectional
policy of the Atlantic cities.-San Fran
cisco Bulletin.
