Early Fruit in California.

Los Angeles, Cal, March 1O.-Decid-
uous fruit trees in southern California
are blooming fully one month earlier
this year than usual. This is regarded
as likely to be an advantage to the crop
in view CT the fact that the rainfall
during the winter was exceptionally
light. If these fruits are not nipped by
frost they will have time to ripen be-
fore the scarcity of water is felt. Con-
tinued dry, warm weather will, how
ever, have a tendency to ripen the fruit
at the EXPENSE of its size

Owensboro, KY, March 10.-Mayor w.

confined in the work house and there is
no work for them to do, they must take
their places with the street hands and
shovel dirt with the chain gang.
The citizens will probably petition
him to revoke this order. His recent
plan of publishing the names OF all VINO

The War Revenue Act.

Congress has passed the war revenue
act. BY it's terms many of tho common
ovory day transactions of life arc made
to bear burdens which will remind the
people that war is not without its conSc-
Hucmt evils, aside from :hc loss Of liro
and hardships Of camp. 1t taxes money
to pay tho expenses of war, and that
money must be raised by taxation
We had trusted that in this emergency
the Congress of tho American people
would have risen to tho task of the oc-
casion and have enacted a law that would
have distributed the burden so that all
classes would have borne their sl;,rn Of
taxation alike, according to the prOtcc-
tiOn enjoyed from tic government.
But, alas ! as VIC sec it., Congress has
again stopped short Of its full duty to
stands places tax on many transactions
which can bear taxation, but We feel that
the property Of the millionaire should
contribute largely to the expenses of
tho war. A tax in some shape should be
levied on the income of tho wealthy.
We are blandly told that an income tax
is unconstitutional. If SO, why not sub
nit an amendment to the constitution
for ratification, and if it fails, then that
question will havc been settled, as every
person will readily submit.
Under this Act, after the first of July
next, every note, mortgage, deed of con
vcyancc, lease, bank check and draft
bin of lading and express package must
bear n stamp. Besides this, many of the
ncccssaries Of life are taxed a tax is
laid also on inheritance. 1t does seem
that if we can tax The large estates of tho
dead tho government ought to be able to
place Il tax on incomes. The rich arc
not slow to call upon the government for
protection, and, therefore, should be
corrcspondinSly ready to bear their
proper share of the burdens. Now is the
time TO provide for an income tax, and
the people should see to it that the next
Congress provides for an amendment to

Can Enter SantingO.

New York, Juno 2S.-A dispatch to
the Herald from Port Antonio says:
1t has remained for tho staunch dyna-
mlto cruiser Vosuvius TO domonstaratc
that tho entrance to Santiago harbor was
not completely blocked by tho sinking of
tho Mcrrimac.
Whilo polSing hcr noso about tho On
franco to tho harhor n few nights ago
tho FcSuvius discovered ample room in
which to pass tho wreck of tho Morri-
mac. Sho went in, made observations
along tho innor harbor and then came
back to sea, getting around tho wrecked
collier without difficulty.
This rather surprising information
came out III tho course of conversation
in which Admiral Sampson and Capt.
Chadwick discussed tho situation from n
naval standpoint
At length Capt Chadwick mado tho
surprising statement that it was a uucs.
ton whether tho Mcrrimac was PROPERLY
sunk. lie said ho feared that H0bson
and his pluoky mon had taken tho vessel
too far into tho harbor boforo sinking her.
As the collier now lies, it is said, tho
channel IL comparatively FREQ of OBJ
structi0n. Such is tho opinion of the
mon on tho Vcsuvius; and thcir nnin;n,!
is based on experience. Not only did
tho dynamite cruiser pass tho wreck
while accommodating about tho outer
forts tho other night, but it gavo to
Admiral Sampson news which resulted
in closo examination of wreck as it
now lies.
1T has been stated that two battlcships
can enter tho harbor abreast, ono passing
to tho right and tho other to tho left of
tho Mcrrimac wreck. This is an oppor-
tunity that will bo of great advantage to
Admiral Sampson when tho final attack
on Santiago begins.

The Situation.

The Spanish were given sample Of
American grit at Santiago last Friday.
II was only II pl siimnary Skirmislr, and
that, too, with the Spaniardi in ambush.
But il was q salty affair for the Dons be
fore they got through with it. The way
had to be cleared for the advance Of the
American troops and right valicntly did
tho Rough Riders, under ROOSEVELT, and
tho Regulars, under Wood, perform the
task. For nearly two hours the lead
was poured into them by Spanish sold
icrs under cover of brush and bramblc
so they could not bc seen. But their
shots were returned i'm the direction
from which they came, and finally Il bril-
liant dash was made into tho Spanish
lines, rout was thereby effected and
tho Spaniards fled in disorder, suffering
an ignominious defeat, notwithstanding
they out-numbcrcd the Americans two to
one. Thus they were driven back into
the Notifications Immediately surround
ing tho city Of Santiago, and the open
country was left for occupation by Gen.
Shaftcr'S army. Since tncn the hmcri-
can army has been fast drawing up be-
fore the city and making extensive prep
arations for battle royal, which may
now be expected at any moment. The
most bloody battle of the war, so far,
will probably be fought before tho end
of this week. The Spaniards arc strongly
cntrcnchct;, and it viii take heavy fight
ing to dislodgo them. The outposts arc
within two hundred yards of each other
This is easy rifle range and n collision
may occur at any moment thereby pre-
ciptating Il great battle. When the 0p.
perfume hour comes, both the land and
naval forces will cooperate in the attack
on tho city. IT will be a memorable bat
tic, but the city is doomed, and the fall
of SantiaGo is certain, sooner or later.
We ito not think it will be many days.
Tho probability is that before next Mon
day, the Glorious Fourth, tho American
Ilag will be planted on the batClcmcnts
Of the city, and tho Spanish flag will be
hauled down never to be hoiSt1d there
again. After the fall of Santiago, tho
cry will be "On to Havana" while Porto
Rico and tho coast Of Spain hcrsclf will
come in for Il full share of attention.
Thus far tho authorities have handled
the grave military questions wisely and
well, Notwithstanding various newspaper
criticisms and yellow journalism. No
war can DO fought in day, and when
glance is taken at what has already been
accomplished, it is evident that Uncle
Sam means business, and Spanish
spanking is going to 10 administered in
