Democratic Convention.
There were two women delegates in
the national democratic convention in
Denver, Mrs. Mary c. C. Bradford of
Colorado, and Mrs. Elizabeth Hay
ward Of Utah. Mrs. Bradford is a
descendant of the Virginia CAROLS.
Though she Is described az a domes-
tic woman and when interviewed by
a reporter was found busting the fur
niture, nevertheless, she is also prom
inent in Colorado politics. At the
state democratic convention she was
the first delegate elected to the ma
tional convention, and was enthusl-
astically applauded. She is grand
mother and an ardent suffraglst.
Mrs. X. NJ. Cook of Colorado. was
one of the alternates.
e Among the Utah alternates was
Mrs. Sarah Ventress. Mrs. Harriet r.
Hood, one Of the alternates from Wy
oming, is spoken of as a petite. wo-
manly woman. She was born in Yer
mont and is strong champion Of wo-
mans rights.
Conspicuous among the visitors
were the wives and daughters of many
Of the distinguished delegates from
all over the United States and the So
cial functions arranged by the Jane
Jefferson and other Denver women
were many and elegant.

Harvest in Union County.

Harvesting In the valley will be
quite generally begun next Monday,
says the La Grande Star The grain
is ripening with much more rapid
ity than had been anticipated and
from the present indications the har-
vest season will come on with a rush.
While the intense heat OF few days
ago had some bad effet, the grain
in many localities has rallied and the
prospects for a yield are more fav-
orable than a week ago Opinions diff
fer as to the condition of the crop
and the probable percentage of dam
age sustained The Star office has re-
ceived reports from large number
of the leading wreat raisers in diff
ferent parts of the valley, and these
reports seem to justify the estimate
that the yield the valley over will be
two-thirds Of crop

BOOSTING LOS ANGELES.

Circular Sent Out Shows Why the
Southern California City Is Grow
ing.
Los Angeles has the name Of being
the greatest boosting city on earth
and by her constant boosting has be-
come one OF the leading cities Of the
United States. The East Oregonian
publishes a portion of this circular,
not because II desires to advertise
Los Angeles or California, but to
show something OF the everlasting
boost spirit which has brought Los
Angeles to the front. The circular
says:
The region Of approximately per-
feet California climate, is, as stated,
comparatively limited. Take the
map of California. You will see
that the state extends in the form Of
an irregular parallelogram, through
nine degrees OF latitude and is bor-
dered throughout Its length, on the
west, by the Pacific ocean. while on
the other hand arises the grand
mountain chain OF the Sierra Nevada.
Following the contour Of the coast,
sometimes close upon 1t and some-
times from 40 to so miles away, the
coast range divides the broad valleys
OF the interior from the mesas and
narrower valleys of the sea coast.
The Sierra averages 5000 feet; tho
coast range from 1000 to 5000 feet
in height. In the neighborhood of So
degrees north latitude, these two
mountain chains are united by a
spur. known as the Tehachepi range.
nearly 5000 feet in height, and all
the portion Of the country lying to
the south, as far as latitude 80 de-
grees, 2S minutes, is thus shut off
from the upper portion of the state
by a natural and mighty barrier
The trend of the coast is steadily
east of south. At Point Conception,
in latitude "a degrees. 20 minutes, 1t
makes an abrupt turn to the east,
for so miles, and then re-
sumes its general course sJuthward.
The Santa Ynez range from 5000 to
4 900 feet in height, follows the same
completing the bar of Sc
paratlon and to these peculiarities of
tC topography are due certain conditions
of the climate of southern California,
which are superior to those on the
other side of the division. In COM
ing from the north by steamer a
marked change of temperature is
noticed Immediately after rounding
Point Conception. The sea breeze
has not that sharp quality, which is |
so trying at certain seasons in San
Francisco. 1t has a balmy character
sure.
At considerable distance from the
coast the effect of the sea breeze is.
In great measure, lost and the cli-
mate becomes rather too warm in
summer for comfort. Thus, We may
say, that a line drawn from Point
Conception to San Diego-about ESQ
extending back from the
,oast 40 miles, will include within 'ts
,rea the choicest climate of southern
say 10000 square miles
100000 acres or, taking off mac
,cssible hills, water courses and other
places which cannot be cultivated, we
ave 100000 acres of arabic land,
with 1t a title in perpetuity
o a proportionate share Of the finest
climate in the world.

WILL RETRY
MAYOR SCHMITz
San FranciscO's Ex-Mayor
is not Yet Out of the
- Woods.

San Francisco, CAL, March 12.-Eu-
gene Schmitz, former mayor of this
|city, was released from Jail Tuesday,
where he had been confined for the
past ten months. free man. until
he again comes to the bar of justice
to face the thirty-nine indictments
which are still pending against him,
and upon which he had to furnish
$345OOO bail before being released
from custody.
Pursuant to the order of the high
Ier tribunal, Judge Dunno of the SUI
perior court, before whom Schmitz
was tried and convicted, dismissed the
indictment in the extortion cases and
ordered Schmitz discharged, but at
the same time directed that the eX-
Itortion case be submitted to the new
grand jury for the purpose of having
Ia new indictment found.
District Attorney Langdon will not
say what steps will be taken to bring
the eXtortion matter to the attention
OF the present grand jury, but 1t is
probable in view OF the courts sug-
gestion, that it will be laid before the
.inquisitorial body without loss of time.
