There are few more profitable parcels than vine-growing, and there is certainly no occupation as pleasant to those who favor an outdoor life. One able-bodied, industrious man can, single-handed, cultivate and manage a twenty, or even thirty, acre vineyard up to the time when the vines begin to bear a paying crop. This is not a random assertion, and its truth can be established by ocular demonstration in Anaheim to-day. If an immigrant can come here with enough money to purchase thirty or forty acres of land, build a house for himself and family (and a house in this climate need only be a very cheap affair), and have enough money left on hand to purchase the necessaries of life for three or at most four years, he can at the end of that time have a beautiful and valuable home in one of the best countries in the world, a large income, a propitious future, and be able to enjoy the fruits of his labors —rendered doubly enjoyable by the exertions which their fruition called forth. These are hard facts, not fanciful representations. Go and ask any of the owners of the wellkept twenty-acre vineyards in Anaheim what they will take for their home, and, providing they are willing to sell, the price asked would astonish the novice who has given little thought to the income which twenty acres of vigorous bearing vines will annually bring their owner. Charles A. Wetmore, than whom there is no better authority, estimates the profit of a vineyard at $100 per acre. This is a large figure, and can only be attained by careful painstaking management, but we have the word of several Anaheim wine-growers, Political Points. We have several "political points," writen for this week's paper, but which we have filed away to await the decision of the Supreme Court which has now under advament the question whether County officers are to be elected this year. The points relied on by the lawyers who have taken up the case in the interest of the present office holders are in brief that the County Govern­ ment Bill (which provides for the election of county officers in November) was not read on three separate days before its passage by the Legislature; that the title of the bill does not express the subject matter contained therein; that the bill is special legislat­ ion, inasmuch as it excludes the county of San Francisco from its operations—all of which is contrary to the Heaven-inspired Constitution of this State. It is the general opinion of lawyers that the Court will hold the Bill to be unconstitutional for the reasons given, and the interesting question now is as to what the next step will be. The Governor has the power to call an extra session of the Legislature, which can pass the County Government Bill in a strictly Constitutional manner. But this is a matter in which he is the supreme arbitrer, and he is already on record as being opposed to convening extra sessions of the State Legislature. Should he not do so, the present incumbents of the county offices will hold over for at least another year—and how much longer no man knoweth. It should be borne in mind that this matter does not affect the election for members of the Legislature. Their election is provided for by Section 3 of Article IV of the Constitution, which says: "* The second election of members of the Assembly, after the adoption of this Constitution, shall be on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November, eighteen hundred and eighty." So that supposing county officers are not to be elected, there must still be voted for on the 2d of November. Ict Presi- way to a success.

It is said that the bound volumes of the new edition of the Bible have been received in New York. It is well known that for years past some of the most eminent scholars have been engaged in the work of revision, and their completed labors are about to be given to the world. There will certainly be much discussion over the new book, as the changes from the old and familiar text are many and radical. The mistakes of the early translators have been corrected; apparent contradictions have been smoothed ever and harmonized; obese words replaced by modern ones and ambiguous passages already on record as being opposed to convening extra sessions of the State Legislature. Should he not do so, the present incumbents of the county offices will hold over for at least another year—and how much longer no man knoweth. It should be borne in mind that this matter does not affect the election for members of the Legislature. Their election is provided for by Section 3 of Article IV of the Constitution, which says: "The second election of members of the Assembly, after the adoption of this Constitution, shall be on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November, eighteen hundred and eighty." So that supposing county officers are not to be elected, there must still be voted for on the 2d of November: 1st, Presidential Electors; 2d, members of Congress; 3d, members of the Legislature. It may prove interesting to some of our readers to know that the lawyers who are fighting the County Government Bill are doing so on "spee." That is they have agreed with the present office-holders in various counties that in the event of the Supreme Court deciding that the Bill is unconstitutional, they must pay the lawyers a stated sum, but if the decision is otherwise, no charge will be made. One thousand dollars is the sum fixed as the assessment to be paid by the officers of this county as the price of their retaining their respective offices another twelve months. The Democratic Supervisoral Convention of the sixth district met in Anaheim on Monday morning at 11 o'clock. Present, nineteen delegates out of a possible twenty. The convention was called to order by V. Montgomery Esq. and Mr. Isaac Cohen was chosen President and T. J. Kerns Secretary. The morning hour was consumed in wrangling over the proxy of the absentee, Mr. Neece, he having given it to a delegate from another precinct. The difficulty was got over by authorizing Mr. Krenz to act as proxy for Mr. Neece, and at a later stage of the meeting a telegram was read from Mr. Neece instructing Mr. Krenz to "vote for Cooper," first, last and all the time." On re-assembling at 1 o'clock the following gentlemen were presented as candidates for the nomination: W. F. Cooper, of Downey; S. Levi, of Downey; E. M. Sanford, of Los Nietos; W. A. Switzer, of Norwalk. The candidates were required to endorse the National and State platforms; to abide by the decision of the convention, and to pledge themselves to enforce the provision of the Constitution requiring large bodies of land to be assessed in the same ratio as the land of the small farmer. The gentlemen named, in addition to taking the pledges, each spoke a few words in his own behalf. Mr. Cooper was nominated on the third ballot, as will be seen by the following table: | BALLOT | BALLOT | BALLOT | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | W.F.Cooper... | 7 | 9 | 11 | | S.Lewi..... | 5 | 4 | 4 | | E.M.Sanford... | 4 | 1 | 1 | | W.A.Switzer... | 4 | 6 | 4 | A motion to proceed to the nomination of township officers was opposed on behalf of the Anaheim delegation by Mr. Montgomery, who said that it had never been the custom heretofore to draw the party lines so close and that the Democrats of Anaheim had no desire to encroach upon the custom which had heretofore prevailed. If other townships, however, desired to nominate their Justices and Constables he would interpose no objection. Other delegates having concurred in Mr. Montgomery's views, the motion was made to embrace only Norwalk, Los Nietos and Downey townships.

GRANET - Preprister. Brander's Block, Center Street. IT IS said that the bound volumes of the new edition of the Bible have been received in New York. It is well known that for years past some of the most eminent scholalars have been engaged in the work of revision, and their completed labors are about to be given to the world. There will certainly be much discussion over the new book, as the changes from the old and familiar text are many and radical. The mistakes of the early translators have been corrected; apparent contradictions have been smoothed over and harmonized; obsolete words replaced by modern ones and ambiguous pasages rendered into plain English. According to these latest translations, the Bible at present in use is brimming over with gross inaccuracies. For instance, Joseph's coat of many colors, the wonder of juveniles, is now described as "a tunic with long sleeves." Mark says that Christ was given wine on the cross; Matthew says vinegar. The new edition harmonizes on wine. "Sheth" now means a tumult; "Bajith" an idol temple; the "mules" mentioned in Genesis as having been found, are warm springs. The present edition turns "pledges" into thick clay, "fleet" into both piercing and crooked, "curls" into galleries, "leaders" into avenging, "ostriches" into owls, "goats" into satyr, "droves" into linen yarn, and so on. Excisions from the present Bible have also been made, the longest being that passage relating to the woman taken in adultery. There are many other startling changes which we have not at the present time space to note. In speaking of this matter, an Engliish writer says: Three centuries ago the translators of King James had few alps and little material for the work. Those of Victoria have accumulated treasure of ten thousand able workers, and storehouses filled with materiat. Autumnment must be expressed that they have found little of vital importance to Christianity to condemn in the work of their predecessors—not that they have made ten thousand trivial and one thousand important changes in the New Testament. The new revision of the New Testament will at first shock the Protestant world. It is not recognizable as a Bible. The chapters and verses are gone; the running head lines are gone; verses are missing, changed, purer; familiar texts that have become graven on the minds of church people for generations have disappeared, and in their place are worth foreign to the eye and strange to the ear. Verbal and grammatical changes may be caused by the tone of them. SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 5th.—One hundred and four premicts complete give for the adoption of the Charter 2,000; against adoption, 14,474. Less than six thousand votes remain unaccounted. The majority against adoption is beyond all expectation. The total vote of the city was 22,122. A motion to proceed to the nomination of township officers was opposed on behalf of the Anaheim delegation by Mr. Montgomery, who said that it had never been the custom heretofore to draw the party lines so close and that the Democrats Anaheim had no desire to encroach upon the custom which had heretofore prevailed. If other townships, however, desired to nominate their Justices and Constables he would interpose no objection. Other delegates having concurred in Mr. Montgomery's views, the motion was made to embrace only Norwalk, Los Nietos and Downey townships. Hardin Jager, the Republican County Treasurer of San Bernardino, holds about the same position in the esteem of his constituents as does A. W. Potts, the Democratic County Clerk of this county. Jager has served nine terms and has again received the nomination; Potts has served six terms and is likewise the candidate of his party for re-election. Much the same scene is enacted in the San Bernardino Democratic Convention as was witnessed in the last Republican Convention in Los Angeles. When it comes to nominating a Treasurer in opposition to Jager the delegates get facsimiles and put up a dummy who is given distinctly to understand that nine tenths of the delegates won't vote for him at the polls. In the Republican Convention held in Los Angeles a few weeks ago, the highways and byways were searched for a candidate for County Clerk, and at the eleventh hour a Mr. Austin offered himself as a sacrifice and was perforated accepted. But with a magnanimity sudden witnessed in a political convention, he was excused from paying the $5 exacted from all the other candidates on the ground that his defeat was a foregone conclusion, and that to charge a man $5 for the empty honor of a nomination would be petty larossy. Mr. L. J. Roam of San Gabriel favors the Herald with a long communication devoted chiefly to extelling the gentlemen who control the railroads in this State. He holds that Stanford, Crocker, et al should be praised instead of defamed; that they should be treated with deference and respect instead of being demonized and criticized. We admire Mr. Rose's courage in rushing unabashed to the defense of the railroad powers, but we are afraid he is deficient in discussion. As a possible future candidate for Congress, he should begin to cultivate the city ways of the politician and demagogue as the current says: "The They have miles distant from field to two trips in thie." "The They have top of the beetle least an inch up tents of that which are inimi boiling pane." "The cucumber." "They have hundred tons oce could produce beer day, supposing than a copy of five time when 2, 3 mum of the sugar." "The sugar biffer from that there are not no greater extent thie."

If he answers that such a role is beneath him and that defeat is preferable to a consoliment of his honest views, then we say that unless there is a great revolution in public sentiment he will never be able to write M. C. after his name. Men who think and reason for themselves, and give utterance to their matured opinions, can hardly hope to win the favor of the masses. Olly Gammon and Demagogue are the winning cards in a politician. A Mr. Bracken wrote some time ago to a Los Angeles paper saying that he has always been a Democrat and that he intends to vote for Hancock and English. The unanimity with which the Democratic press pounced onto this declaration and rolled it as a sweet morsel is somewhat surprising. One would infer from the enthusiasm which greeted Mr. Bracken's announcement that the Democrat who intends to vote for the nominee of his party must be a rurus avia. The blushing youth who "runs" the Downey Courier refers with pardonable pride to the following paragraph as an evidence of the tennesses and vigor of his editorial writings: "The Democrats fought the war, and the Republicans remained at home and made money out of shoddy contracts." George C. Gorham, who is now making stump speeches in Maine on behalf of the Republicans, announces that he will return to California and lift up his voice for the cause in this State. Is not this an insidious trick on the part of the Democracy? Hon. R. F. Del Valle is making a canvas of the Fourth District in the interest of the Democratic ticket.

New York, September 6. — The Herald, commenting on the partial failure of French and Rhine wines this season, says: Californians ought to be able to sell a large part of their wine crop to Germans this year, and to the French for some years to come. The wines of California are so cheap and so pure that they have been used in increasing quantities to give "body" to the wines of those countries. No doubt some part of this export from California returns to the United States in the shape of German and French wines, so called. It is a notable fact that cheaper French wines are sold here now at little if any higher rates than when the French product was nearly three times what it now is. California wines are valued by wine "manufacturers" in Hamburg.

The sugar beet interest of this county has met with a check which it is to be hoped will not prove as serious as it appears at first thought. The sugar factory at Florence has closed, because the beets have proven rebellious and will not respond to the treatment of the machinery as they were expected to do. No official explanation of the trouble has been given by Professor Gennert, but it is understood that the beets grown here contain some ingredients which prevent sugar from being extracted—at least with the machinery now in place. We have every confidence in the ultimate success of this sugar beet scheme, because it is beyond question that the beet does contain a large percentage of sugar, and mechanical and inventive skill is not wanting to perfect machinery which will extract the saccharine matter. We hope that Prof. Gennert will throw some light upon the matter, and thus open the way for an intelligent discussion of the trouble. A correspondent of the Express, who appears to know what he is writing about, says that the trouble is not the fault of the best. In enumerating the causes of the failure he says: "They have planted a field of beets twenty miles distant from the factory, from which field to the said factory they can make but two trips in three days. 'They have exposed the beets for drying purpose twenty-four hours long under the sun's beams to convert a part of crystallizable sugar into molasses by fermentation. 'They have ignored the fact that even the top of the beet must be severed down at least an inch upon the root, because the contents of that part are precisely the salts which are inimical to crystallization in the boiling pane. The beet has the same wit as the cucumber."

The French for some years to come. The wines of California are so cheap and so pure that they have been used in increasing quantities to give "body" to the wines of those countries. No doubt some part of this export from California returns to the United States in the shape of German and French wines, so called. It is a notable fact that cheaper French wines are sold here now at little if any higher rates than when the French product was nearly three times what it now is. California wines are valued by wine "manufacturers" in Hamburg.

Moody will begin the season of evangelical work in San Francisco, and remain there through the Winter. His family will remain in Northfield. In choosing San Francisco as his next point of effort, he has not overlooked the many difficulties to be met with, or the strength of the influences that will operate against his success. There is probably not another large city in the country where the rigidly orthodox Christianity which Moody preaches has received such little encouragement as in San Francisco. Still he believes it is a place where he is most needed at the present time, and believes that with the co-operation which expects from among the churches the city will be deeply stirred." Milwaukee, September 7th.—A young Norwegian named Rosendahl, from Minneapolis, gave an exhibition yesterday of walking on water. It was a complete success. With his feet secured to two small boat-like structures the young man walked rapidly and easily on the surface of the water. A peculiarity of Rosendahl's invention is the possibility of making progress by an actual walking movement. There was no striding back or sideways, but a straight forward walk at the rate of at least three miles per hour. Thousands of spectators witnessed the feat and the crowd was very enthusiastic over the young man's success. The swell occasioned by a passing tug did not disturb the walker to any noticeable degree.

The beet has the same wit as the cuneumber. They have planted a field to yield seven hundred tons of sugar with a factory which could produce hardly half a ton of sugar a day, supposing it should be anything else than a copy of the old process used at the time when 2, 3 and 5 per cent were the maximum of the sugar-producing properties. The sugar beet of Los Angeles does not differ from that of any other country; and there are not rebellious ingredients to a greater extent than anywhere else. The process of sun-drying costs dearer than by artificial heat, for the beet dried by the sun can only give fine crystallized sugar, but in less quantity. I will illustrate these statements, not by words or writing, but by material facts in seasonable time. I had heard that there were two beet-sugar enterprises in California—one in the north, with a large and nice factory without beets; and the other in the south, with a large plantation of beets without anything that deserves the name of factory. In this reason why the beet-sugar manufacture shall not be a success in this country? The reply is easy." Mr. J. K. Preston of Westminster informs us that Monsa. Young and Silkwood are now making syrup from sorghum with their mill. Other sorghum growers will soon begin the experiment of making sugar and we hope to have a favorable report in a week or two. P. Minahan, proprietor of the Cloverdale hotel, is the proud owner of the finest grape-vine for its age in the county. It is a Zanzamel, three years old, two inches in diameter six feet from the ground, and covers the whole front of his hotel, 60 feet front and two stories. Last year it bore 180 hectares of delicious grapes, and this year it is heavily laden and will bear no doubt 1,000 Rn. The State Viticultural Commission have sent to Arizona for seeds of the wild grapes for experiments with reference to its phylloxera proof qualities.
