VENTURA, Sept. 30.-Win A. Harris, the
erstwhile Republican who is now pleading
for votes for Waters. made bad break in
San Luis Obispo. last night, in speaking Of
Mrs. Barlow's riding on a pass to San
Francisco. Mrs. Barlow was . resident of
Ventura before her marriage, and Is ex-
tremely popular and we'll liked In this coun-

bring lady's name into political cam

a Just feeling Of Indignation pervades the
minds Of the residents Of this entire coun-

be brought into politics.

w dust of the streets, it had no effect
upon the dust daily raised by the pupils of
the schools in their scramble for votes for
their school teacher friend.
Father Linn of St. Vincent College, Miss
Nina Norton of Ann Street and Melville
Dozier of the Normal School were all recip-
tents of many votes yesterday. For the last
time in the contest The Herald will today
give globe of the world to the pupil who
brings in either one-year, two six-months,
four three-months or twelve one-month sub
scriptions. Who will get the fine china soup
tureen on the 9th inst. is hard to tell. Many
have made large gains during the past week,
which places them in line as possible WIN
ners of the prize. Today should bring in a
large vote, owing to the result appearing in
tomorrow's Sunday paper, which will as
usual contain two ballots, and eagerly sought
by those interested in the contest for that
reason. Voters are requested to vote not
less than ten ballots at each time as by do
ing this they will greatly aid the committee
Of teachers who will make the final count
Again the request is made that voters
use no pins in fastening their ballots to-
gether-tie them with piece of string.

- - SOME CRTDIT DIE.

Chairman Macdonald of the Repub- lican town committee is receiving merited praise for the way in which he conducted the campaign which has tainly displayed great tact in dealing with very difficult situation, and great zeal in and fidelity to the work laid upon him. In so doing he has added to his fine record as a shrewd and decent political manager.
 The collection and distribution of the returns by the telephone company was the speediest and most complete thing of the kind that has ever been done in this State. The vote in every town was reported, and reported early, ex- cept Bridgeport, where recount had to be made. and Bridgeport was heard from in ample time to be properly fig ured in the tables. The telephone company's work, makes very different thing of election returns than they used to be in the old days, when Pros- pect' might be heard from in the course of week or so, if nothing hap pened to prevent
 The Associated Press was also very systematic and successful in it's great work of dealing with the returns from all the States that voted. It's office ir this city was equipped with an extra force and there was no lack of skill and promptness in handling the large amount of matter sent

A Few Still Left-Methods of Captur-
 ing Them.
 The wild horses which used to roam the Texas prairies are about all gone. I asked an old resident what had become of them, and he told me that only a very few remained, and they were in the large pastures, and they were be- ing killed as often as a shot could be had at them. I asked him the reason for this destruction, and he said that they were worthless in the first place, and in the second they stole other horses which were good and carried them off with them. He informed me. also, that of all the wild animals, a horse or mule which had formerly been under the dominion of man was the widest when once 1t became a part of a wild herd. The stallions of the wild herd were always ambitious to keep their bunch" filed, and would steal a mare or horse or even mule, from the settlements or COW ranches when the occasion presented itself. When once a tame horse or mule got with a wild herd, he became the widest and most cunning of them all. As the wire fences went up the territory of the wild horse contracted. Finally all that remained were in the large pastures.
 was told that before the pastures came it was the custom to walk down" the wild herds and reduce them to ser vitude One gentleman l met here told me how this walking down" was done. He said that the wild herd which one was determined to capture always had

PR0TECTTON NEEDED.

The Germans appear to be almost as smart as Yankees in some things, 1t is complained by persons engaged in the tobacco industry in Cuba that Ger man tobacconists have discovered a method of competing with them which is liable to prove disastrous in more than one way. The Germans can make a cigar for five dollars a thousand which they can send to Cuba, pay the present temporary duties, and ship from Cuba to the United States as Ha- vana cigars, selling them here at eight dollars a thousand, and yet realizing a very neat profit over all expenses. Eight dollars a thousand is as low a figure as the Cuban remonstrauts say they can reach with the first cost of the cigars, and they consider the com petition very unfair as regards prices alone, to say nothing of the damage done to them indirectly through the sale of inferior German stock under the Havana name.
 Of course this wont do. It is believed that the Treasury's temporary tariff for Cuba will soon be modified so as to give the Cubans more protection

Some impressive facts concerning the pension system of the United States are given by Major s. N. Clark in the Forum. The official figures testify, says Major Clark, that the republic has not been ungrateful, especially since it has been question of rewarding the survivors of the army of the section successful in the civil war, their wid- ows and their dependents. In the last thirty three years it has given it's pen sioners the vast sum of $2,251, 555, ,921 besides $14,775,794 in fees for the medi- cal examination of applicants and $6o 690,157 for expenses of administration. Last year the amount of gratuity to pensioners was $145, ,S59395 Assuming that the laws and their administration will not hereafter be made more lax than they now are it is estimated that by 1945--when the last survivor will have disappeared-$2, Oil ,140,2 addi- tional will have been given to the v:c- tors of the civil war, to say nothrrg Of what is given afterward to their wid- ows. As designing young women often marry aged and decrepit veterans with in a few days of their demise for the purpose of obtaining lifelong pensions as widows, pensions to civil war wid- l ows will be paid doubtless as late as the year 1882 In 1895 we were still paying pensions to twelve widows of soldiers of the Revolution, which ended virtually in 17S1.
 | It is the pension attorney, accord | ing to Major Clark, who gives motion l to the legislative machine, attending ''camp fires,' getting up petitions, writ 1 ing platforms, drafting laws, and re- minding the Congressmen-not without | threats-that "the veteran saved the Union'' and is entitled to its entire as- | sets. 'The pension attorney" says | the author lis at the bottom of and l behind very large proportion of the applications for increase of pensions. He is omnipresent, and, as the projec- tor, promoter and framer of new pen ] sion Legislation is well nigh omnis- cient in all matters relating to this branch of knowledge" Of the 745, ,S2S l invalid and dependent pensioners of June 30, 1898, as many as 425 ,000 were applying for increase of pension-a mark of the fine hand of the ingenious attorney. Since 1879 over $38, ,000, 900 has hAer received by the pension attorneys for posing as the friends of the soldier
 ald his widow: for shouting patriotic cries at Grand Army encampments and political conventions; getting up peti-
 tions for more liberal pension laws;'' i for coaxing or bulldozing Congress
 and getting on the blind side of pen sion officials. Their business is a lu- crative one. Many languish in prison for fraudulent practices, but a vast
 army of them, good and bad, are con
 stantIy at work to swell the pension
 expenditure.

Chinese ports, Chinese goods trans shipped at an English port being shown as exports to England, while American goods thus reshipped appear as imports from British or British colonies. The net total value of imports and exports In 1898 was S33 600000 Haikuan taels (G55,76S ,500l, and the total gross value G57214,OO0, of which America contrbu- ted G3S5O,000 Japan G4,795,OC0 Euro pean states (excluding EnglanO e4- 5S5,O00, and Russia e2,S56,000, Of the actual American share, however, many items, as already ndivated-includ ng cotton goods, oil, flour, machinery, iron, lumber etc.--are set down to England and Hong Kong. The total for Ameri- ca, it has been estimated, should more probably be 900 than G3,S50O OOO. Between them the United States and England have considerably more than 75 per cent of the foreign trade, while Britain alone carries S2 per cesnt, of the external trade with China, and pays 76 per cent. of the duties and levies on that trade. It is thus clear what a predominant stake England and the United States have in the commerce with China While the American im- port trade from China has increased slowly, the exports to that country have increased 126 per cent. in ten years, and are more than 50 per cent
 larger than the German exports. The export of cotton cloth in 1897 amounted to G1,497, ,000, or nearly one-half the en- tire value sent abroad by the United States that of kerosene is rapidly growing, having already trebled in value in the past ten years: the export of wheat flour in 1897 was G67S,0O0, and of chemicals and dyes over e20O,000.

By the use, therefore, of two horizontally rotated thermopiles, the two heat-col- lecting tunnels pointing in two opposite directions, it is believed that not only would the proximity of a vessel be shown by it's heat radiations, but the nearness of an iceberg, and even of land or sunken wreck.
