The herald., 1897-01-26

| Those who favored the motion argued
that the depression in business, low
prices OF all products, and the difficulty
| OF obtaining employment called for a
reduction In taxes. and that this reduc-
| ton OF salaries was only a beginning Of
what should be done.
DR.. Head stated that Mr. Chynoweth,
all through the canvass from his speech
| in the nominating convention down to
| the last day, declared himself in favor
of retrenchment, and that the same
gentleman, in speech at Westminster,
stated that IL elected he would work to
reduce official salaries.
The motion was defeated by vote of
25 to 10, only about two-thirdy of those
present voting. Many different propo-
sitions were then brought forward and
discarded.
A motion to instruct Mr.. Chynoweth
mot to push his bill' was finally carried
the vote being about the same as that
which was brought out by the Cook mo-
ton. What regard Mr.. Chynoweth will
pay to the instruction of about 25 citizens
of Santa Ana remains to be seen. It is
evident that he has trodden on the toes
of many prominent leaders in his own
party and has reduced his political cake
to batter, no matter which way he may
determine to act.
The reason why so few citizens were
present is that people have become al
most Indifferent, feeling ESQ many state)
that you may resolve and reresolve, elect
and re-elect, and still there remains a
state of tweedle-dum and tweedle-dee,
certain iterests always coming out on
top, while the peoples bread always falls
"buttered side down."
The case from Tustin, which was
brought to determine whether certain
individuals unlawfully took possession
of one chicken and a hen, consumed the
whole of last Saturday in Justice Hunt
indon's court, ard resulted in a verdict
of not guilty.
