SUNDAY, - - MAY 89, 1887
This dreadful calamity which over
took the victims of the Opera
Comique, in Paris, seems to grow
worse and worse. At first, it was
supposed that only some fourteen
people had been sacrificed. Hut the
number has increased fearfully with
every day's dispatches, until it is
now believed that over one hundred
people were consumed in this dread
ful conflagration. One would have
supposed that in Paris, the foremost
city in the world in caring for the
lives of its people and keeping a
strict surveillance of public buildings,
an event of this horrible character
could not have occurred. In Paris
the Government exercises the utmost
vigilance to preserve places of popu
lar resort from danger. It is watch
ful, to a degree that astonishes
strangers, for the safety of its people
in the crowded streets, in its rail
roads, in its public halls, its churches
and its theatres; and it seems strange
that in this one instance a place of
public amusement, one, too, enjoying
a subvention from the National
Treasury, which usually cairies with
it the responsibility of especial gov-
ernmenlal care, should have been
overlooked in a vital particular—the
amplitude ot its vomitories. Yet the
melancholy fact of a fatal negligence
is before us, attested by a holocaust
of victims that has sent a thrill of
horror throughout tbe civilized
world. It is impossible to look at
this calamity in any other light than
as one that could have been avoid.d
by proper precautions. Nothing can
assuage the grief or compensate tie
loss of tire mourners; but the lesson
taught is one of serious moment to
tbe living. It warns the authorities
of every city of the immense respon
sibility resting upon them wilh refer
ence to buildings in which large num
bers of people assemble. It imposes
upon them the duty ot knowing by
careful inspection if every such build
ing is so constructed that in case of
fire there are avenues of escape suffi
cient and accessible to enable all to
reach the open before the flames can
lick them up. This duty applies as
well to the authorities of Los Angeles
as to those of other cities, and the
Pari9 horror invites us to ask whether
every public building in this city is
as safe as it ought to be? Let those
who are responsible for the public
safety answer.

(Vi have received another large
Ustallment of the Illustrated Her
ald, and orders for this matchless
presentation of the resources and
attractions of our section will be now
■lied at> aootl as sent in,
Values and Returns.
We cannot dwell too strongly or
too often on the demonstrable fact
that tbs high value of lands in this
section is consistent with the value
of their productions. Our good
friends in the northern part of the
State are greatly mistaken when they
try to make it appear that our land
values are speculative, fictitious aud
not justified by what can be legiti
mately made out of them. We have
repeatedly shown the fallacy of this
kind of ctiticiein. The value of pro
dace of all kinds shipped from Los
Angeles county last year was be
tweenseven and eightmillion dollars.
An orange grove in bearing will
yield an income of from $250 to $500
par acre per annum. It is indeed a
very poor orchard that will not net to
its owner 8100 per acre every year.
This would be an iutetest of ten per
cent. |>er annum upon $1000, and
that is the actual value as a product
ive investment uf even the poorest
orange lands in this county. But
our choicest orange lands are not
held nearly aB high as the maximum
yield per acre from them would jus
tify. Our vineyards are proportion
ately profitable. Hundreds of vign
erons in thia vicinity realize from
$125 to $200 per acre from their crops.
Yet lands well suited to this kind of
culture are Eold every day for from
$200 to $;)00 an acre—a figure far be
low their just value when we con
sider their yielding capacity. The
sauie argument will apply to our
lauds uianted in Knglish walnuts, in
apricots,peaches and other fruits. Cer
tainly '.he corn lauds of LosNietosvai
ley that yield one imndredcentals per
acre, with a supplemental crop of
pumpkins or watermelons or other
products, are as valuable as vine
lands, and yet we have never heard
of the?e lands selling at prices com
mensurate with the value of their
yield. If the lands of Los Angeles were
placed upon the market at prices
rated according to the relation which
the value of their products bears to
the iniereßt on money, but very few
o: our broad acres would go for less
than $500 each, and a great number
of them would be worth from $1000 to
$3000. We know that these
figures look enormous to people who
have been in the habit of
thinking that they were get
ting hign prices for their lands when
Belling them at from $75 to $100 per
acre, which are maximum prices for
lands in the northern belt; but they
should consider the great difference
in tiie yielding capacity of the two
classes of lands. The farmer in the
latter belt who realizes $20 or $25 per
acre net from bis crops, is well satis
fled, and when hesells his land at $75
an acre, he is getting all it is worth.
But if he were realizing from $120 to
$500 an acre from his lands ho would
not consider their value over-priced
if they were sold for from $500 to
$1000 an acre. Then, again, there is
another factor which cannot be
ignored when we come to consider
the value of lands in this section.
There has been a great deal of cheap
wit expended about our people sell
ing their lands at so much
per acre and the climate at
so much more. But the fact is our
matchless climate cuts a very im
portant figure in the fixing of land
values. It would go for nothing that
we had the choicest and the richest
soil in the universe if there went with
it an unendurable and unwholesome
climate. They both go together, and
one is a complement of the other as
far a-i the fixing of values is con
cern id. Having both a soil of unap
proachable richness and a climate of
unapproachable serenity and salubri
ty, we naturally possess a combina
tion of values that will be avidly
sought f>i Hence it is not fair to
merely estimate the value of ourlands
by their capacity for returns; but we
should ald a very large percentage
for the mitchless climate that goes
with them. The day is not far dis
tant when our lands will be sold
openly on th s principle of computa
tion, and it wllbe a fair and ji stone. 4
Tut: visit of Senator Stanford and
other leading railroad men of the
Southern Pacific to this section of the
State is doubtless pregnant with im
portant ramifications of their line.
Under the circumstances of the pres
ent situation it would seem impera
tively necessary to their business
prestige that they should speedily ex
tend the southern branch of their
road to San Diego. The A. T. it S.
F. company have exhibited wonder
ful energy in pushing their road and
its feeders in every direction where
there was traffic either waiting for
them or new traffic to be created. It
would seem incumbent on the South
ern Pacific to pursue the same progres
sive policy and branch out with lateral
lines from their main road to all points
within their reach. The imperial
county of Los Angeles is jnst at the
beginning of her development. What
has been done in that respect up to
the present time is but as a drop in a
bucket to the development she is
capable of. There are opportunities
for homes in this county for three
million people. That number of
people could be comfortably sup
ported from the products of hor soil
alone. Xherefore there is no danger
that railroad development, no matter
on how extensive a scale, will be in
advance of the resources of our sec
tion.
Preparations are being made by
the G. A. R, Posts to celebrate Deco
ration Day to-morrow in an appro
priate manner. The several ceme
teries will be visited not only by the
comrades of the sleeping soldiers,
but by crowds of civilians. The
graves of the valiant dead will be
gracefully decorated with flowers, and
memories of the war will be recalled
by the touching scenes enacted
wherever the resting place of a de
parted soldier can be fouud. Deco
ration day has become a fixed holi
day in our country, and, North and
South, it is devoted to the beautiful
ceremony of paying a grateful tribute
to the memory of tbe bravo ones gone
to rest. A touching ami significant
feature of the celebration is the fra
ternal custom that has grown up of
paying equal marks of respect to the
resting places of those who fought in
the gray and those who fought in the
blue.
Oknekal good feeling pervades our
people on account o:' tho assurance
we now have that our principal
streets will be paved before another
winter sets in. Instead of the bitu
minous rock proposition meeting
with opposition from the property
holders along the line of the streets
to be paved with it, they are all well
satisfied with it. Indeed, wo hear
that some of the property holders,
whose frontages are ordered to be
paved with granite blocks, are anx
ious to substitute the bituminous
pavement. For our part, we are re
joiced that the streets are to be paved
with any kind of acceptable mater
ial. It is the one thing we needed to
take us entirely out oi the provincial
era.
Tin: transfers of property recorded
the past week in this county foot up
a total value of |1,929,106. This is a
splendid showing, and leaves San
r'raneisco far behind us in the value
of its real estate movement. The
week previous our transfers only fell
♦5G,805 behind those of last week.
In the face of these figures, the efforts
made in the north to decry our
"boom" are simply contemptible.

Dr. Sprixomi hi. was here a shor
time since and interested our vigner
ons in a discovery of his by which
wine can be solidified in the must
and thus kept in portable solid cakes
until required for use. He was very
complimentary on the quality of our
wines when here; but a reported in
terview in the Exit miner makes the
Doctor exalt the wines of Northern
California over those of this part of
the State. We do not believe that
Dr. Springmuhl has been correctly
reported, and feel sure that the inter
view, as published by the Examiner,
was mainly evolved out of the brain
of the reporter. Our reasons are
these; The interview makes him
speak unfavorably of Fresno and its
wines. He never visited Fresno.
Then he is made to descant upon the
superiority of the soil and climate of
the northern wine-producing districts
and of their wines. Yet it is known
that he he had never visited Napa,
Sonoma nor Vina.
