CALIFORNIA.

Can you imagine anything more desirable
than to live in a mild and even climate
where winter is only a name; where the
trees and the grass are always green; where
flowers bloom under spring and summer
skies all the year round where there are
no sudden changes in temperature to draw
upon the vitality Of man and beast and to
chill the feebleness of advancing age?
Yes you say that would be nice, but
where you have no winter, I always thought
there must be a season of very hot weather"
Generally speaking, that Is true but in
our favored Southern California the ther-
mometer ranges between So degrees and 95
degrees above zero; the average high tenn
perature is about IS degrees
This is truly the land of sunshine and
roses" Flowers flourish out-of-doors the
year round; we have strawberries eleven
months in the year, and green vegetables
the year round
California is not only pleasant place to
live, but 1t is profitable as we'll fortunes
are made here every year in fruits, alfalfa
and other farm products, and there are
millions of dollars in gold taken out Of
the ground every year, which was for sew
eral years the greatest wealth producer in
the State of California but for the last
two years gold has had to take second
place Oil now heads the list of wealth
producers in California and it has not
reached its limit yet, in fact it is admitted
by oil experts that the Oil industry Of Cali
fornia is but in it's infancy
Back in the early eighties long before
the discovery of oil in the Coalinga oil
field, man by the name of LAGRANGE
came out from Virginia, where he had spent
several years, drilling with rather indiffer-
ent success. Soon after he arrived a man
came to him with a mining scheme which
he thought would pay well if he only had
a way to get the sands from a certain
creek bed in MERGED county Mr. LAGRANGE
agreed to obtain the sands for him and
worked on the prospect more or less of
the time for several months
While there he went to MS trunk one
day and In taking out some things acct
dentally broke a bottle of the oil that he
had brought from the eastern fields. A
workman who was standing near by asked
what it was, and when told that 1t was
petroleum oil seemed very much Interested
That night. he called upon Mr. LAGRANGE
and told him that he knew where there
were indications of a large amount of the
same kind of oil and that If he would go
with him he would show him where it was.
About two years later, they started from
huron with provisions for trip of several
days. They camped the first night near

ty, so in order to make sure of his
ground he wrote the county chairman
and asked him to tell him the things
he wanted to avoid in his speech.
The county chairman answered him
and while his exact words cannot be
quoted, it is said that one part of the
letter ran something like this:
Don't say anything about the tariff
We have a large farmer vote in this
county, and the farmers seem to be
pretty well satisfied with the tariff as
it is. 1t would not 60 us any good to
discuss that question or to attack the

As an evidence that this situation is
causing some concern among the poll
ticians on both sides, an incident has
been heard of which shows that the
democrats are as bad off in this par
ticular as the Republicans. In one of
the cities in the west part OF the state
a county convention is to be held soon
by the Democrats. and one of the lead
ing Democratic speakers of the state
has bee masked TO make a speech

take in his speech so to put him

tariff law"
So this one speaker will not touch
the tarifr proposition at that democratic
county convention.
1t is practically certain that the re-
publican speakers will pay a god deal
of attention 10 praising the work of
the administration at Washington and
the acts of congress during the last
few weeks 1t is admitted by all that
congress has done a good job lately.
There is still that fierce opposition to
the Payne-Goodrich tariff law, but so
much else that is good has ben done

Several Republicans who have been
out in the state lately say that in the
country districts and in the small
towns the farmers and others are not
much excited over the tariff question.
and that speakers would do we'll to
leave that subject alone when speak
ing IN those places. On the other hand,
they say, the pinch of the high cost of
living has been felt most in the cities
among the working people in factories
and industries. In such places. they
point out. the tarir may well be dis
cussed.

the jury in the Porter circuit court had
awarded the estate $4,000 damages
The suit which was for $4,000 was
filed by the Daun administrator to re-
cover damages for the death of a mar
ried couple on the interurban RAILWAYS
tracks near Michigan City last year. It
is understood that the jury stood eleven
for $1,000 damages and one for no dam

fected for $4,000. and as yet neither
side has appealed the case.

Mighty little sympathy Is felt these
days for the Earl OF Yarmouth by his
old cronies in this city. A good many
OF them are making no effort to conceal
their elation over the success OF his
former wife, Alice Copley Thaw. in re-
covering $4,000 OF the dowry he
forced from her at the foot of the altar
when they were married q few years
ago in Pittsburg. When Yarmouth
was on his uppers In this city looking
for job as an actor with second class
shows he appeared to be a pretty de-
cent sort of a fellow and made many
friends by his amiability and freedom
from caste. He was the humblest of
the bunch and ever ready to take pot
luck with the lowest of them. But
after he married Miss Thaw he didn't
know any Of those with whom he for
merly fraternized in the days when a
five dollar bill was a luxury and a
meal ticket in one of the theatrical
boarding houses to which he was often
staked by his actor friends, a God send.

early days was quickly lost and few

the fees he collects and he takes this
instead of a salary. In some districts
or counties in the state the deputy in
spectors make good money, while in
smaller counties and districts the in
come is less.
Fees for Last Year.
Last year the fees collected by the
bureau of oil inspection amounted to
$4,000. OF this sum the reputies re-
ceived $4,000. After all expenses had
been paid for the maintenance of the
bureau the state netted about $39, 900
from this source last year.
Governor Marshall announced yes
terday also that when he appoints a
new oil inspector he will recommend
to him that he appoint Tom Bresna-
han. city editor of the Fort Wayne
Journal-Gazette, deputy for Fort
Wayne and E. ]. Toomey. of South
Bend, deputy for that city. OF course,
the recommendation OF the governor
will amount virtually to an order, so
that the appointment of these two
men Is assured.
Just to show how much the deputy
oil inspectorship is worth in the var
ious parts of the state. it may be
pointed out that Walter Derr, the
present deputy at South Bend, makes
$1,000 a year out of the job; Alfred
G. Lukens, deputy at Fort Wayne,
about $1,500; Charles w. Taylor, dep

derives his large income and feels it
