A DAMNABLE CONSPIRACY

The basest feature of the human heart
is revealed and comes into play as the
dominating factor when one betrays the
confidence of his friend and neighbor
and delivers him over into the hands of
a sworn enemy. 1t is only when that
feature has full sway in directing the
conduct that one can smile and smile
and be villain: and it is only then when
the soul delights in degradation and the
mind revels in the dastardly work the
hands have wrought. But It is only
when the soul and mind and heart be
come a commingled mass of moral cor
ruption that fiendish delight is taken in
viewing the consequences of misplaced
confidence.
Los Angeles. nor any other city, ever
witnessed such a bold exhibition of
perfidy hypocrisy and falsehood as was
seen in the city council yesterday when
five of the nine members deliberately
and with relish forswore themselves and
tried to deliver Los Angeles over to the
water company to be squeezed taxed and
swindled to the utmost Of the eompany's
desire. The resolution which was de
feated by the five Republican mem
bers reads a5 follows:
"Resolved' That public interest and
necessity demand that the city Of Los
Angels should own complete system
of water works for the use of said city
and its inhabitants. and 10 the end that
this council may have prompt and full
information in the premises as to the
best and most available system, and the
cost thereof, whether constructed by said
city or acquired by purchase. it IS or
dered that the city engineer of said city
do Immediately make full and complete
plans of an entirely new system. sufic-
lent in all respects to furnish said city
and its inhabitants with an abundance
of pure water. ana that said engineer do
also report to this council herewith a
careful estimate Of the cost of such new
system
No doubt these five worthless will say
they had already adopted a resolution

had, but in fact the resolution which
they adopted is to throw dust in the eyes
of the people. 1t reads TINS way:
"Moved that the water committee be
instructed to confer with the city en-
gineer and 80 report to council as to
the best procedure for acquiring water
plant--to be owned by the city"
The worthlessness OF tAIs resolution
will be understood when it IS stated that
the majority of the water committee is
in accord with the purpose OF The five
who voted down Mr.. Orders resolution.
AS viii be seen, the water committee is
not instructed to report a any particu-
lar time. It can and probably wli ask
and keep on asking for further time
until it is too late for the city tc con-
struct a water system, when the terms
of the present water company viii have
to be accepted OF the people go without

manage to delay the preliminary work

ENGLISH LEMON MINCEMEAT

Lemon mincemeat is a pastry filling
that an English housekeeper says is an
esteemed holiday dainty on her native
heath. 1t is made from six large lemons,
whose rinds are grated before the juice
is squeezed into a deep bowl. To this
are added two pounds each of seeded
raisins, currants. sugar and chopped
apples, one and a half pounds of beef
suet chopped fine and four ounces of
lemon, orange and citron peel cut fine.
When the mixture is thoroughly tossed
together, glass of brandy or white
wine is poured over and it is ready for
use.-New York Evening Post.
The herald., 1897-01-12

The water committee of the council
will make a favorable report for imnae-
diate action next Monday, unless the
majority of the committee, which is
Republican, override the chairman, who
is a Democrat. The council stands four
Democrats for municipal ownership
and five Republicans for continuing the
present system. Nevertheless. Council
man Nickel, chairman of the water
committee, and a good Democrat will
force the issue and make every man put
himself upon record.
