A large audience assembled in Kroeger's Hall last night, pursuant to a call published in the Gazette, to take steps to organize a Workingmens' Club. The lateness of the hour at which the meeting adjourned precludes the possibility of our giving a full report of the proceedings in this issue. Judge Thompson, of Los Angeles, was the principal speaker. He reviewed the causes which led to the formation of the Workingmen's Organization, charging that the two great political parties were equally corrupt. It costs $13,000,000 annually to run the State Government, when $1,000,000 is sufficient. The State Prison ring make and pocket $500,000 yearly from that institution. He deprecated the practice of the Legislature making appropriations for benevolent institutions in San Francisco, at least without throwing safeguards around the expenditure of the money. The county government of Los Angeles is carried on very extravagantly. The Sheriff makes $15,000 annually out of his office; the Clerk makes about the same amount; and the other officers all receive fees and salaries grossly in excess of what their services are worth. The overshadowing power of the railroad corporation was discussed; it was shown how those companies controlled Legislatures and corrupted courts and public officials. Against all these evils the people had appealed to the legislature, but that body has done nothing for them. The speaker thought that the last legislature was always the worst; and that the present one was not so good as its predecessors. On the contrary, quite the reverse. The Workingmens' party of Los Angeles county proposes to act in harmony with the Labor Party, of which Dennis Kearney is President. The speaker did not propose to discuss Mr. Kearney, his short-comings or his virtues. Kearney cuts very little figure in this movement—its success hinges on no one man. He did not admire Mr. Kearney's intemperate declamations nor approve of his absurd threats, but he did admire his matchless pluck and determination. It is the pur- TOWN BOARD OF TRUSTEES Th.

[FROM LAST SATURDAY'S SECOND EDITION.] Let it be remembered that our prices for job printing of every kind are as low as those of any office in the county, and that our work compares favorably with that of any office in the State. We solicit the patronage of our readers. The regular meeting of the Amateur Society has been postponed for one week. The new sign of P.Davis & Bro.'s Banking House presents a very attractive appearance. The Magnolia Club will have their hall in readiness for use some time during the next week. The Messrs.Newmark have purchased the Temple Block, in Los Angeles, for $131,-000. A schooner, carrying 260 tons of corn, sailed from Wilmington on Thursday for Guaymaa. The school house lot is being plowed preparatory to setting out shade trees. The lot will be a great ornament and attraction to the town. Norwalk Items. REGULAR CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GAZE TTE Our pen has long been idle, but our excuse is, as usual, want of items. If Corydon of Orangethorpe finds such difficulty in collecting news in that thriving section of the globe, what would he do in Norwalk, where items are like "angels' visits, few and far between." St.Patrick's Day was not hailed with much enthusiasm by the good citizens of our delightful little town and its vicinity. The reason may have been, that the colt element does not predominate in Norwalk. However,the prediction of every old weather prophet was fulfilled for once, namely, that the day of the patron saint of Ireland, is always heralded by rain. The reports that the dread scourge, small pox, has made its appearance in Artesia, has filled the minds of the people residing thereabouts with alarm. It is said that the disease was brought into the country by some persons from Arizona. Measures should be taken at once to arrest the spread of this fearful disease by means of vaccination. The many friends of Mr.Gilbert Sproul of Norwalk, will regret to learn that that gentleman is at present suffering under the influence of a painful, though not dangerous nervous malady. Hopes are entertained of his complete recovery in a few weeks. Our village store has passed from the hands of M.B. Chapman into the possession of Messrs.Swigart and Speyer, who propose keeping a large assortment of goods and disposing of them at Los Angeles prices. They are at present making extensive improvements on their place. Mr.Speyer started for San Francisco last week for the purpose of purchasing a full assortment of dry goods and groceries. Mr. Chapman, our aforetime efficient merchant, proposes to remove with his family to one of the northern counties. We wish him success, and feel assured that, wherever he makes his home, his fellow citizens will find in Mr. Chapman a worthy neighbor and friend. The farmers of this region feel confident of good crops this year, on account of the plentiful rain we have had this season. Everyone is busily engaged in plowing. J.A.C.C March 21, 1878. A Chinese Outbreak. Stockton, March 21.-A general insurrection broke out among General Thomas H.Williams' Chinamen on Union island. They legislature was always the worst; and that the present one was not so good as its predecessors.On the contrary, quite the reverse. The Workingmens' party of Los Angeles county proposes to act in harmony with the Labor Party, of which Dennis Kearney is President.The speaker did not propose to discuss Mr.Kearney,his short-comings or his virtues.Kearney cuts very little figure in this movement—its success hinges on no one man.He did not admire Mr.Kearney's intemperate declamations nor approve of his absurd threats,but he did admire his matchless pluck and determination。它 is the purpose of the organization in this county to obey Mr.Kearney as long as he is President of the Labor Party,and no longer. Judge Thompson then read the platform adopted by the Workingmen of this county.And the subsequent proceedings will be given in our next issue. The Messrs. Newmark have purchased the Temple Block, in Los Angeles, for $131,000. A schooner, carrying 260 tons of corn, sailed from Wilmington on Thursday for Guaymaa. The school house lot is being plowed preparatory to setting out shade trees. The lot will be a great ornament and attraction to the town. Gen. Jasper Packard, Internal Revenue Inspector, is making another tour of the Coast. He was in Prescott a few days ago, and will probably make his appearance in Anaheim cre long. There are many here who will be glad to see him. The Los Angeles Republican, in an editorial article apent the shortcomings of our representatives in Sacramento, makes the following remarkable statement: "We find the old rodent of the Monte (Ellis) in correspondence with the Railway magnates since his election last fall, in which he is informed by Mr. Crocker, the President of the Southern Pacific Railroad, of his intention to extend the road to Santa Ana, in which, "points" are suggested to him by which he can "get even with the Anaheimers" for any defection towards him at election for his supposed interest in behalf of the Railroad." SACRAMENTO. March 21.—SENATE.—The Chair presented a letter, from the Secretary of the Workingmen's Society, stating that Senator Bones had announced in Oakland on March 1st that he (Bones) had been offered money to vote for certain measures. The letter asked for a Committee of Investigation compelling Bones to divulge the names of the parties who made this offer. Bones rose in his place and stated that yesterday afternoon he found a letter on his desk requesting him to resign, signed with a skull and cross-bones. He denied the charges contained in the communication, and further said that he was not to be intimidated by threats, and that he intended to serve out his term notwithstanding them. After much discussion the following resolution was adopted unanimously: Resolved, That the Senate of the State of California have implicit confidence in the honesty and integrity of Senator Bones, and regard all attacks upon him as bearing on their faces evidences of ill-will, and are unworthy further consideration of the Senate.
