WEEKLY GAZETTE. SATURDAY JUNE 30, 1883 SUBSCRIPTION. per year, $2. The importation of Irish paupers into this land of the free and the home of the brave has grown to such intolerable proportions that steps have been taken to check the further increase of that kind of immigration. In depopulating their poor houses and assisting the inmates to come to America, the English Government has been guilty of as Pente a trick as any ever land to Yankee ingenuity. But some other method of solving the Irish question must be evolved. It is hardly credible that there are in capitalized countries whole communities swaked in superstitions as well as any entertained by barbarians hundreds of years ago. The trial now going on in Nareghazza Hungary, where some Jewish people are charged with killing a Christian girl who gets her blood to mix with Passover or white wool he had roamed enough were not the items of the accused in danger of being wounded, to appease the prejudices and the superstitious of their intellectually warped persecutors. A case of equally unbridled superstition has been developed in the little village of Shondock in the province of West Prussia. The father of a ruthless girl who was of no means persuaded that his daughter had been beaten by a woman who had been kind to her and has neighbors advised him to protect some of the supposed wife she had given to the sick girl. The woman was entrapped by some of the short men in the community; her finger pricked with a knife and the blood which dropped there was given to the sick man. For even sinister and the newspaper is certainly not an universal in Europe as in America. There is a similarity between the Viennese of America and the Viennese of Europe at the present time, presumably as they are a superabundance of water in France. This cause directs us in the American Vienna. RANCHO LOS ALAMITOS. A Princely Estate Its Future as a Stock Farm The Cheese Factory A New Grain. The Rancho Los Alamitos a visit to which we made on Monday, is probably the best natural stock farm in Southern California. This could not always have been said of it; for years ago, while yet the water throughout the entire southern portion of this country was within a few feet of the surface of the land, that part of the rancho near the ocean was a swamp and of but little value. But the reeling of the waters and a system of drainage has transformed this part of the rancho and made in the most valuable portion of the 27,000 acres which comprise this princely estate. In this most belt most famous crops of city have been produced. There are now five hundred acres in corn, and all of it is fertile and the yield promises to be as heavy as anything previously seen. This little crop is put in by renters, who pay the proprietor of the rancho Mr J. W. Buxby a share of the crop for the use of the land. Through the courtesy of Mr. Buxby we were drawn around and through this maze of corn, and the sight was attractive even to us who are accustomed to the big scale on which Californians are wont to proceed. The Eastern farmer who has to plaster and fertilize each hill of corn, and who considers a field of five or ten acres as something quite large will have difficulty in imagining a wayfinding lot green five hundred acres in extent. But it is there. There are in hundred and fifty acres in alfalfa, a grass which grows with rack loxion on the moist, slightly alkaline on the western portion of the rancho. It is Mr. Buxby's intention to gradually increase the area until he has added thousand acres of alfalfa, so that the cattle and sheep destined for the market will always be in good condition, and he will thus be enabled to place fat stock upon the market at the time of year when cattle are generally out of condition, and fat cattle command a fancy price. When high taxes are accumulated when the one thousand acres covered with luxurious alfalfa, it will be the ideal stock farm. PACIFIC A fire at Fall River destroyed property.

TIME is a similarity between the Vines of America and the Vines of Europe at the present time, maximum as there is a superabundance of water in the American Vines and not yet apperied to be a possibility fortunate place that respects may beferred from one field or industry adopted by a meeting of farmers and others held in the town of Venice on Monday. Resolved: That no more than many of our people have been called to duty for the past three years and this general overload has remained unimpaired a long number of who, with their own resources will be able to put in crops during its coming year, we do not only desire to all that are able to assist these efforts. Resolved: That several pieces of tool money entailed on our section of country which seem like exaggeration so faratalized its nature is the train. That it will be at least fourteen in other places; that crop will be raked and in between time destination in its worst furious condition to the wallows. In view of these facts we feel justified in applying for assistance and request that all contributions be made to Henry Robinson President of the Baird of Troy of Venice, Ill., for distribution. The Railroad Commissioners have adopted the schedule of farms prepared by Hammphreys. It reduces the fares to tent and six cents per mile. These rates have been in force between many points for some time, so that it is not a general reduction. For instance the fare from Los Angeles to San Pedro has been 70 cents, and the new school does not change this rate. An idea of the reduction can be gained by a study of the following table: | FROM | TO | YEAR | DATE | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Los Angeles | Santa Monica | $ 50 | $ 50 | | " | San Diego | 70 | 70 | | " | Anaheim | 1.10 | 1.50 | | " | Santa Ana | 0.35 | 2.00 | | " | Calton | 2.30 | 3.00 | | " | Yuma | 14.89 | 22.00 | | " | San Francisco | 21.09 | 23.00 | Commissioner Fonte opposed the schedule and offered one fixing the maximum rate at three cents per mile, but the two other Commissioners repeated it. It is to be noted that on the railroad lines where travel is greatest the schedule makes no reduction. The rate charged on some Eastern roads is as follows: New York Central, per mile 1.99 cents Pennsylvania Central 2.25 Chicago and Rock Island 2.81 New York and Lake Erie 2.04 Chicago and Northwestern 2.52 If the question were a new one, the point might be raised, even in a city, county or State elects a public officer, it is too part of the commissioner Fonte opposed the schedule and offered one fixing the maximum rate at three cents per mile, but the two other Commissioners repeated it. It is to be noted that on the railroad lines where travel is greatest the schedule makes no reduction. The rate charged on some Eastern roads is as follows: New York Central, per mile 1.99 cents Pennsylvania Central 2.25 Chicago and Rock Island 2.81 New York and Lake Erie 2.04 Chicago and Northwestern 2.52 If the question were a new one, the point might be raised, when a city, county or State elects a public officer, it is no part of the business of private citizens to undertake to secure the city, county or State against loss. The public has chosen a man for a responsible office. Let the public take the risk. Why should A and B be required to pledge their private fortunes to a city or State that the man the public has chosen will be honest? As a matter of fact, nineteenth of all the bonds given amount to nothing. In one way and another bondmen avoid the obligation of making good any defection. The loss falls on the public at last. The above, from the Bulletin, is an endorsement of what the Gazette has often maintained. The system of requiring bonds from public officers is radically wrong. If they prove defaulters, they alone ought to suffer, and not the friends who have good-naturedly mortgaged their property by signing their bonds. There is yet another reason way the bond system should be abolished. It is a well-known fact that the men who go upon the bonds of officials in the larger cities more especially generally control the incumbent and run his office for him. He is but a puppet in their hands; he must give places to the men named by them and in many instances give them 4 percentage of his salary. It is a degrading system and the sooner it is abolished, the better. We believe we are betraying no confidence in repeating the statement, made to us by a mutual friend, that Mrs Mattie A. Bridge is to be married in the fall to Colonel Stevenson, the handsome and talented District Attorney of Los Angeles county. — Lompoc Record. This thing of law officers defying the law is getting to be serious. First, the Chief of Police tries to assassinate an enemy, and now our District Attorney proposes to commit bigamy. But may there not be some mistake—is it not the City Attorney of Los Angeles that the Record refers to? A Brilliant Suggestion. SANTA ANA, June 28th. Ed Gazette: The annual scarcity of water is upon us—only this year it is a little scarcer than usual. Over here our trees are already suffering, and just what we are going to do until the rise of the river in August or September is something no yellow can find out. Your people, too, I suppose, will suffer for irrigating water, though in a lesser degree; but I suppose you concede that something ought to be done to develop more water and prevent this annual tribulation. I have a suggestion to make. It is true, my plan has been tried quite often, and no good result has yet been perceived, but perhaps the result will be better next time. My plan is simply this: Begin another lawsuit. Scientist. Deaths by Drowning. George R. Dean of San Leandro was drowned in Modoc county while crossing a fork with a band of horses.

Andrew Jackson of Upper King's River says the Fresno Expansion is now engaged in bee raising quite extensively. He is devoting his attention to raising the Assyrian or Holy Land bees, which he informs us are far superior to the common variety. He says they are better workers and are gentler and very much easier handled. George Wallace, steward of the Union Pacific Company's Hospital at Weeksville, M.T., was shot and killed by H.M.Cune, a saloon keeper. For some time past convulsions patients in the hospital have visited Metane's saloon, coming back drunk and sleeping off the debauch. To remedy this Dr. Cunn, the company's surgeon, issued an order for building Wallace to permit any patient to visit the saloon. This angered Metane, who killed Wallace, as he said, for "running his business." From all accounts it seems to be a case of deliberate murder. An organization in Bartle, M.T., known throughout the Territory as "33-777," took a man named Harry County out into a vacant shanty house on the edge of town and administered sixty-four lashes with a cat-o-nine-tails, initiating terrible punishment and considerably laxating his body. The cause of such extreme measures was that Gundy on Tuesday morning made a brutal attack on a little ten year old girl, the daughter of a respected citizen of that place, and, although foiled in his villainous designs, considerably bruised and injured the child. Gundy had a for trial in presence of the vicious and other witnesses and confessed the crime. After the chastement he was escorted to the county road and told to perpetually absent himself on pain of severe punishment. In the first part of September, 1857, J.J. Perkins borrowed $20 of H.C.

The deceased had lived with Ray and had made mistakes against his life. The tragedy occurred in the home of Ray and he asserts that the act was in self-defense. He surrounded himself to the authorities. Ray, Dr. Parker of the Congregational Church of Hartford Coun., attempted to haunt two number of children in the South Baptist Church, presided over by Rev. Mr. Evans. The latter, with his dewiness could not induce Parker to leave personality. Exerts then entered the baptistry and engaged in a bitter fight with Parker both being in the water. They tort each other's hair and clothes and it was with the greatest difficulty that they could be torn from each other's embrace, though both were unconscious and nearly drowned. A special from Tennesseh, Nebraska, says: Fifty eight miles south, on the Nemaha river, the heaviest rain known fell on Friday night. The streams were already overflowed and all this addition to the floods made a raging torrent of every creek. Fifty thousand dollars worth of bridges were washed out and thousands of logs and hundreds of cattle drawned. The total loss in the country will exceed $300,000. Eight inches of water fell Friday night. Six inches had fallen the previous week. Houses were washed away and families are destitute. Two people were killed by lightning. At Tennesseh a thousand people are out of groceries and flour. The Nemahima is full one hundred miles long. A Paris telegram says: A new issue of obligations of the Pension Canal will probably take place. This concern does not progress very rapidly, although it was started two years ago. The trembles are not yet begun. De Lesseps son informs us that he has 7,000 workmen on the spot, and that there are not more than 3 percent of the men sick. He asserts the Company intends beginning dredging etc., with the intention of terminating the whole work in five years, given time. The Company is spending at present 2,750,000 frames per month. The first two years will have swallowed up 60,000,000 frames without reckoning 50,000,000 frames for dredging machines. It is estimated 500,000,000 or 600,000,000 frames more will be required in order to finish the enterprise. For this reason the Company is going to call upon the public for more funds. At Devois, on the shore of Lake Como, while a puppet show was in progress in a large hall an audience of about ninety persons being present, a Bengal light was used to represent a fire, and sparks from this setfire to a quantity of straw and firewood in an adjacent room. On perceiving the flames she showman shouted "Fire," but the spectators thought the dry was merely a realistic detail of the show and remained seated. Cries of "Fire" were soon raised outside the hall; but the audience thinking an affray had arisen in the street, barricaded with a heavy table the door leading from the hait. They did not discover their mistake until the flames burst into the room. After the fire was extinguished forty-seven charred corpses were found near the table, including the corpses of the showman and his wife. A large portion of the bodies are those of women and children. The wounded were hurt by leaping through windows. A child was thung out of a window by its mother and fell upon a pile of straw. This is the only one of the spectators present in the hall not hurt. A St.Louis dispatch of the 26th says: The river is falling slowly in East St. Louis on on Thursday morning made a brutal attack on a little ten year old girl, the daughter of a respected citizen of that place, and, although foiled in his villainous designs, considerably brushed and injured the child. Gundy had a for trial in presence of the victim and other witnesses and confessed the crime. After the chastisement he was escorted to the county road and told to perpetually absent himself on pain of severe punishment. In the first part of September, 1867, J. J. Perkins borrowed $20 of H. C. Firebaugh and gave Firebaugh, as he was much pressed for money at the time, his note for $30 payable in one week, with the provision that if the amount was not paid in the time specified, interest should be collected at the rate of $5 per day. The money was not paid and Firebaugh, before the note was outlawed, sold it to N. D. Thayer, and that person in August, 1881, sued Perkins for the amount of the note with interest. The suit was heard by Justice Gilson and judgment rendered on September 24th, 1881, for the plaintiff for the principal, $30, with interest, $7,355, and percentage and costs, $106 50; total, $7,491 50. Perkins was much appalled at the extraordinary amount he was called upon to pay, and has not yet settled the case. Mr. Firebaugh states that he, on behalf of his client, Thaver, offered to compromise for $70, but the offer was not accepted. An injunction has within the present month been levied on Perkins' property in Oakland.—S. F. Bulletin. Suicides of the Week. Alexander Gardiner was found dead at Nephi, U.

THE GREAT STORM Of January 12th, 1882, which injured or destroyed several Windmills in Los Angeles County proved conclusively that the CALIFORNIA WINDMILL is the only one that can stand, uninjured, a heavy sale. Although some of nearly every other manufacture was destroyed, so far as known every one of the California Mills put up by the undersigned escaped injury. These Mills are so strongly made and so perfectly self-regulating that, when properly put up, it is almost impossible for a storm to injure them. It is also superior to other Mills in having an ADJUSTABLE STROKE (4 different lengths) in the case and noiselessness of its work, in the beauty of its design and finish and in the marvelously low price at which it is sold. I will furnish these Mills with Pumps and Tanks and set them up in complete running order at the lowest possible rates. For further particulars call upon or address N. H.
