the committees now at work
During the past months many new
members have Joined. and lively inter-
est is now taken in the mining exchange
affairs. In the territory more directly
accessible to Los Angeles are many val
liable mining properties. most of which
are incorporated and are ready for the
market. Several Randsburg mines al
ready incorporated have been placed
upon the market and the demand for the
Investments has already advanced many
of the best of these stocks to par. a few
of which are already dividend payers.
The Los Angeles Mining and Stock
exchange was organized about one year
ago. before the general public was ac-
quainted with the rapid development
being done upon the desert. The ex-
change has thus far done very little ac-.
tive business, but the new officials are
well-known, aggressive mining men.
and will doubtless place the exchange
upon a basis in which it will give great
assistance to the mining industry here

urday at her home on Figueroa' street.
The table decorations were OF pansies,
maidenheair fern and roses. In the
center was a miniature boat made OF
roses, resting on square mirror. The
boat was lighted with tiny candles,
while a little fairy queen occupied the
seat of honor. The menu cards were
painted in La Fiesta colors, while 1897

THE CITY COUNCIL
Prospects of Another Discussion on
the Water Question

At the meeting of the city council
this morning the water question Will
probably be brought up in some sort OF
shane by Councilmen Hutchison and
Grider Just what progress has been
made in circulating the petition, copy
of which has been printed In The Her
aid is not known. but it is not believed
that enough names have been secured
TO make any sort of showing. There
was a rumor Saturday that Mayor Sny-
der was preparing a message on the
subject, but the gentleman has not con-
firmed the report.
The census committee will also prob
ably submit a report giving the full
details of the work up to Saturday
night. AS has been stated, the work
of some of the enumerators has not
been satisfactory; the expense has al
ready been more than double what was
at first estimated, and considerable re-
mains to be done. In some instances
1t may be necessary to make another
canvass of some of the precincts, which
will be done if thought advisable.
Owing to Fiesta week, several OF the
committees are somewhat behind, but
the indications are that there will be
comparatively little routine business.

LA FIESTA rs ALL RIGHT

The Herald regrets to see on the part
Of even one Of its Southern California
contemporaries the disposition to rail at
the Fiesta that was brought to Sue
cessful close last week Such course
must be charged either to malice or to
lamentable ignorance or misunderstand-
ing Of the value and effects of festivals
of this kind. 1t is charitable to suppose
the latter case. To ILLUSTRATES:
La Fiesta stagnates and kills business;
it takes money that should be given to
other purposes OF far greater benefit. The
people of moderate circumstances are the
main sufferers. People that barely have
the actual necessities Of life to go to La
Fiesta and let their obligations to go
unheeded and unpaid; their children
60 hungry and are lily provided with
clothing It detracts from trade; lessons
travel, and results in draining and drawing
from our purses until home and our local
interests are entirely lost sight Of. And

derived2 Your money has been spent IN
a. cause of no earthly benefit; and then II Is

mental to every locality other than Los An
reles. and in the main is a detriment 10
that city Better by far give the vast
amount expended in this foolish and expen-
sive demonstration to the support OF the
hundreds of families within the oonnnes OF
Los Angeles that are crying ior oaiiy
bread.-Long Beach Eye.
It Is unnecessary TO consider mere the
economic effect of the Fiesta upon Los
Angeles. That feature was CONSIDERED
and disposed of long ago.
The festival idea is, or should be, with
relation to the other cities of Southern
California, an effort TO make times GOOD
nv helping each other and putting money
in circulation. The people of Colorado
have grasped the idea to perfection. In
that state the annual festival season
begins with watermelon day. at Rocky
Ford, early in September. 1t is followed
in rapid succession, by the flower carni-
val at Colorado Springs, Peach day" at
Grand Junction. Apple day" at Canon
CITY. Potato day" at Monument or
Greeley, and the street fair" at Long
mont.
Thousands Of people from all over the
state and elsewhere attend these festi-
walls. and Denver, as becomes the me-
tropolis Of the commonwealth. furnishes
a generous contingent of the sight-seers
The whole seriesis appropriately crowned
by the "Festival OF Mountain and Plain"
which Is held at Denver in October and
which corresponds to La Fiesta of Los
Angeles. 1t was attended last year by
900 visitors.
These festivals, which were originated
several years ago, have been held an
nually through all the hard times, and
have been of great benefit to the several
cities and to the state. They would not
be Dispensed with under any circum-
stances.
Los Angeles does not believe in pro-
noting stagnation just because there is
q comparative absence of prosperity,
and The Herald believes that the other
enterprising cities OF California stand

MINING EXCHANGE
A New Board of Directors Elected and
Much Business Transacted

The general public interest now mani
fest in the mining industry in the terri
tory adjacent to Los Angeles has crys-
tallized in a well-supported movement
for the esta blishment Of the Los Angeles
Mining and Stock exchange upon solio
basis. The annual meeting of the ex-
change was held Friday with very
large attendance. The balloting for
the new board of directors was very spir
tied, as it is believed that the next twelv'
months will show a marked advance II
the development of the resources of tbs
great desert lying so close to Los Ange-
les. The election of the directory result
ed as follows: C. White Mortimer, DR.. c.
T. Pepper, Maj. H. NJ. Russell. Nat F..
Wiltshire. w. E. Howard. e. K Alexan-
der, F. c. Garbutt F. D. Lanterman and
E. L. Allen.
Immediately after the adjournment of
the stockholders meeting the new board
met and organized to prepare plans for
placing the exchange in active working
order. DIR. G. r. Pepper, a well-known
mining man, interested in almost every
J camp on the desert, was elected presi-
dent. Maj. H. NJ. Russell was elected
| vice-president, Mr.. E. X. Alexander
| treasurer. Committees were appointed
| to arrange the future plans of the
| exchange, which are to involve
| the openeing of general ex-
| change room and bureau in the heart
| of the business part of the city, for the
| dissemination of mining information,
the development of the industry tribu-
| tary to this city and the establishment
and maintenance of a daily call board
| for mining stocks.
The new board of directors held an adj
| journed meeting again Saturday to
bring these plans to immediate consum-
nation. The exchange headquarters

been called to meetthere next Wednes-

standard and a corresponding contrac-
tion Of the currency upon American pol
ftics throwing out bimetallisn alto

tablishment of an aristocratic party

be good Clevelandism, but 1t is hardly
Democracy, pure and simple. 1t is to
be hoped that the New York managers

name of the Democratic party for their

If such an aristocratic party should
be formed, there Is little doubt that
considerable element of the Republican
party who are at heart in favor of the
gold standard, and who have hitherto
taken the bimetallic bolus of their plat
form with wry faces, would naturally
grav1tate toward Mr.. Cleveland's
standard. On the other hand, the great
rank and file of the Republican party,
who are at heart in favor of the double
standard, will as naturally gravitate
towards the real, simon-pure Demo-
cratic party, when at last they are con-
vinced that the protestations of the |
Republican platform are only as sound |
ng brass and tinkling cymbals.

manner in which political lines are to |

MR.. CLEvELAND'S PARTY

Ex-President Cleveland, in his ad-
dress before the Reform club of New
York, reminds one forcibly Of Ben But
Ter in congress with his hat full of rocks
After bombarding the free-silver Demo-
cratic party to his hearts content, Mr..
Cleveland turns his fusillade, with alb
solute impartiality and great abandon,
against the high-tariff Republican
party.
The significance Of Mr.. Cleveland's S
utterances cannot, of course. be gain
said. 1t means that an effort is maxi
ing to start political movement in
New York with the idea of swallowing
up the national Democratic party or
making a permanent breach in it. 1t
means the establishment of a gold
standard party to go at once to greater
lengths than the Republican party has
ever dared go. It's purpose will be to
ingraft the English idea Of a single

THE NEW SENATOR

The incoming senator as a rule, is not
method of doing business which pre-
walls in the United States senate. Ac-
customed, as he had been, In the more
contracted spheres Of political conten-
ton from which he has gained promo
tion. to the gladiatorial plan of transact
ing business. the drowey deliberation of
the senate seems to impress the new
member as poorly disguised scheme
of voluntary inactivity. He contrasts
his tranquil surroundings with the stir
and hustle by which his hobby measures
were carried through the state senate,
and concludes that his new associates
must be aroused If legislation ie not to
come to dead halt.
OF course. the new member is laboring
under a mistake. His zeal has simply
gained the mastery of his judgment, and
his efforts to remodel the time-honored
course and methods of doing business
time, and then courteously placed
upon the shelf by his indulgent brethren.
The latest reformer Of this class is
Senator Mason of Illinois. The rules of
the senate are framed with the appart
ent purpose of securing and preserving
the rights Of the minority. They are
based upon the high assumption that
the protected minority will never resort
to unfairness or trickery in order to de-
feat the will of the majority. But Sem
ator Mason advocates a system some
what after the plan Of Speaker Reed Of
the house. He would stife the will of
the minority, shut off debate and turn out
undigested laws much faster than the
supreme court could find time to consign
them to oblivion.
Mr.. Mason is evidently man of some
ability, and when he shall have learned
that in this era OF overwhelming legis-
lation a department of obstruction in
that direction is the crying need of the
hour, he will be satisfied to settle down
to course that will accord with his new
surroundings.
While the senate is not such depart
ment, yet it's enforced deliberation in
| the past has been productive of good
always. An autocrat at the head of the
senate just now, who could dictate the
crude legislation that came in from the
house under the guise of national
tariff measure, would confirm the ca
lamity that the speaker sought to ini-
tiate There were great men in the past
who found the rules of the senate suffi-
cient for their purposes, and it would
seem that Mr.. Mason should be content
to give the rules trial.
The herald., 1897-04-26

conflicting interests in the country
would make a'volume. There is oon-
slant conflict between the producers
of raw materials and the manunfactur-
ers. The latter urge free raw materials
and high duties on fabrics. and the
interests of the raw materialtsts are
the opposite. The manufacturers have
as a rule gained advantages over their
antagonists because they have been
more industrious and artful in be-
sieging congress. They are always
suffering in their own imasinatfons.
The pulling and hauling when the
tariff question is before congress- has
been discreditable and shameful. The
success Of the manufacturers has in
no inconsiderable measure been due
to the fact that they take steps to have
elected to congress men who are COM
mitted to their interests and whom
they can trust. Other classes are neg
lectful in this respect. Lobbyists for
agriculturists are rarely seen about the
capital. The wool growers have done
more than any other class, the Louisi-
ana sugar planters have sometimes
sought a hearing. and at the present
time the fruit producers of California
are pressing their claims for protection.
There are not only great difficulties
in framing an impartial and just tariff
law, but there is a perpetual effort on
the part of those who want benefits
from such legislation to have changes
made in the law. notwithstanding every
change to a greater or less extent de-
ranges business for time. Putting
on. taking off, increasing and reducing
duties disturbs values. While there is
a general and just principle that should
prevail in tariff legislation and which
should be respected. it is but little less
essential that there should be stability
and continuance of law at least long
enough for business to become adjust
ed to 1t, that it's merits may be fairly
.ested. Revision or amendment should |
lot be made except for good and sub
stantial reasons. and then changes |
should be as slight as possible in ac-
the desired result.
