HATI BDAV, SEPTEMBER 3, 1881
Only Board and Clothes.
Some one entering the private of
fice of old John Jacob Astor and be
ing bewildered by tho many evidences
of enormous wealth around him, con
irratulated the millionaire on the su
preme felicity of his lot. The phleg
matic Knickerbocker replied: "lam
no better off than you—not so well
off. All I get from all this is board
and clothes, and I have to work hard
er for it than you do." Whether one
will accept all the conclusions of the
millionaire to the extent of determin
ing he will remain poor, securing his
leisure, aud foregoing the dignity be
stowed upon idleness by a fat bank
account or not, there is a good deal of
indisputable philosophy covered under
the sardonic expression of the found
er of the house of Astor. Whether
or not the rich man can extract
no more than board and clothes out of
his millions, it is certain that most of
ns have to be content as we can be un
der the affliction and remain so poor
that board and clothes is all we can
get out of life. A wide new world
rich in varied resources, with a great
continent of fertile lands, ribbed by
mountains clad in valuable woods and
crammed with the richest ores in tho
■world, have afforded some opportunity
for those who braved the terrors of
the wilderness and were hardy enough
to carve their way through all ob
stacles to amass large fortunes. There
have been episodes in the history of
tlie American Union, like that now in
foil swing in Los Angeles and South
■ern California, when it has been hard
for every man in the community
to avoid ,i becoming really rich.
But even the New World has been
pretty well explore 1. A great
deal of its richest mines have been
rifled of their treasures. The rich
prairie lands have been exhausted of
much of their fertility, and will no
more yield a thousand fold without
the trouble oi fertilization. We have
become a dense population, and most
of that which was really attractive in
the public domain has become the
property ofthe individual man. Even
the United States are fast becoming
reduced to the status of what are
mined, perhaps, more or less thought
lessly "the effete monarchies of
JJnrops." In all the States of what
was once considered the boundless
■west, settlements have been made,
and cities have multiplied, until
everything has become reduced to a
settled basis. No more shall mere
fortuitous circumstance make every fel
low foolish and shiftless, as well
as the wise and sturdy, rich in spite of
his poor business iiualineations. It
has come to be that for a vast number
of millions of people all there is left to
get out of life is board and clothes.
More than this; if the man is not pos
sessed of some sense, more industry
and some frugality, the board will not
be sumptuous nor will he lie able to
clothe himself iv "fine linen every
day."
Reflections such as these may not
be the most pleasant, but they serve
to point a moral if not to adorn a tale.
It means just this: In the great west
farm lands are generally held at a
price bised upon their profitable re
turns ti the man who exploits them.
The ratio of interest is not above five
per cent. In very fact the lands
are now nearly all so subdivided that
Ihore is not even a five per cent profit
to be banked from making the little
farms. Each is merely a little home
for the family which owns it, lives on
it and doeß all the work on it. Board
and clothes is all the family get out of
tho farm. With all the toil of seed
time and harvest, liearing the heat of
tha summer noon anil the winter
morning, if at the end of the year
Uieowestern farmer can make ends
meet, and does not find his debts in
creased, he is well satisfied. The
years of his life pass, he goes from
youth to old age toiling on three hun
dred and sixty-five days in the year
ly board and clothes.
How get oar lands down to that
basis. Kstimate their value on a
basis of five per cent, profit. Qe
a step further and figure up how
much of our fine soil will produce
board and clothes for an industrious
and frugal family. Five acres will
produce better fare and cleaner clothes
for the family than a quarter section
in the West. The one hundred and
sixty-acre farm in tho West will cost
improved, fenced and with houses,
$10,000 to *20,000. For this and with
careful cultivation, by hard toiling all
the year, the family will reap enough
wheat to buy hoard and clothes. On
the same basis that is the value of
every five-acre patch of good orchard
or vineyard in South California. And
yet we are considered wild in holding
these properties at half or even one
quarter the smaller sum.
Ballona Harbor and Improve
ment Company.
For many years past old sea cap
tains and others interested In having
a good harbor on tho Pacific ocean
near Los Angeles have looked at and
talked about Ballona lake. This lake
is situated three miles south of Santa
Monica, and is partly on the Sausal
Redondo Rancho of P. Freeman, and
partly on the Ballona Rancho of L.
Messmer. It is separated from the
ocean by a narrow ridge of sand hills.
All that was necessary in order to!
make it a good harbor was to cut
through this ridge and protect the beach
aud banks against the sea. About j
a year ago James Campbell, Peter I
Taylor and Juan Bernard brought this,
harbor project before M. 1.. Wicks, |
the capitalist, and P. Freeman ami ■
Louis Messmer, owners of the land on j
which the lake was situated. Mr.
Wicks, with his usual foresight, at]
once agreed to put money into the j
scheme, and Mr. Freeman offered
three hundred and seventy acres of
fine land adjoing the lake, and Mr.
Messmer about forty acres of ocean
frontage. A company was at once
formed with James Campbell as presi
rhrnt, and a railway was projected and
built to Los Angeles. An immense
steam dredger, the largest in the Uni
ted States was built, and was
lately towed into the har
bor, and the excavations com
menced. A large amount of tim
ber and four steam pile drivers were
bought and the work of cribbing and
dock-building commenced. After
several hundred feet of piers had been
built, it was found that the teredo was
eating the piles at an alarming rate.
Work on the piers was at once sus
pended, and the company are now
erecting creosoting works for the pur
pose of protecting the pilesand timber
against the teredo. This is a very ex
pensive and slow process, but creo
soted piles driven twenty-five years
ago, are now as good as the day
they were driven; and the company
were determined to spare no expense
in making their work durable and
good. The three hundred and twenty
acres of land donated by Mr. Freeman
have been divided into lots, and will
bring into the treasury ofthe company
over one million dollars. The condi
tion of the gifts of land by Messrs.
Freeman and Messmer was that the
entire proceeds of the sale of the lands
should be used in the building of
wharves, piers and docks and in
dredging and deepening the lake. It
is calculated that by the first day of
January next the harbor will be so
far completed as to allow all vessels
drawing not over fourteen feet of water
to enter into and ride safely therein.
The present officers of tbe company
are M. L. Wicks, President; Louis
Messmer, Vice-President; Juan Ber
nard, Treasurer; U. Freeman, James
Campbell, Directors; S. P. Rees, Sec
retary; and I). Freeman, General
Manager. These names are a suffic
ient guarantee to the |ioople of Los
Angeles that the work will lie speedily
and well done. When completed the
harbor will ojien a new era in the
prosperity of this county. Lumber,
coal and all other commodities brought
from other ports will be greatly re
duced in price, and our farmers will
be able to choose from the markets of
the world for the sale of their pro
duce.
One of the leading Prohibition pa
pers of the country thus correctly
sums up the philosophy of the Repub
lican party: "As the Abolitionists
forced the making over of the old
Whig party and its conversion into
the Republican party, so the Prohibi
tionists, if they keep up the courage of
their convictions, can force the milk
ing over of the Republican party into
a Prohibition party. The Republican
party !n this State really started off as
a Prohibition party. It began to
form, or "fuse," as the word was
then, after the defeat of Scott for the
President, in 1802, and passed a
Maine Law, which Governor Sey
mour vetoed; and in IN,i4 it elected
Myron 11. Clark Governor over
Horatio Seymour on the prohibition
issue. Make the adoption of prohibi
tion—make anything, for that matter,
necessary to possible Republican suc
cess, and the Itepublican leaders will
accept it. They are for prohibition or
against it—for anything or against it,
as necessity compels or chance of vic
tory inspires them." There is a good
deal in it if there is Prohibition
strength and consistency enough
to make the issue on. We forget that
prohibition is no new thing. It carried
New York and that against Seymour
a whole generation ago. It could not
et rry New Yo-k to-day against any
one. Then again, too many Prohibi
tionists are Republicans tirst and Pro
hibitionists afterwards. They try to
persuade others to what they do not
believe themselves—that the Itepub
lican party is at heart for prohibition,
and that in the face of the records of
the old Republican whisky rings. The
f ict is that there is no hope for the
1 Prohibitionists outside of au independ
ent organization, and then they must
go into weak Republican States, fuse
with Democrats and thus defeat their
LOS ANGELES HERALD: SATURDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 3, 1887
betrayers. As the writer above says:
"They are for anything or against it,
as necessity compels or chance of
victory inspires them." The Prohibi
tion parjy may by these tactics, and
remembering how strong the love of
"spoils" is in the average Republican
heart, comi>el them to incorporate a
Prohibition plank in their platform.
They will not do it for love of prohibi
tion ; for whilo nearly all Prohibition
ists happen to be Republicans, the
great mass of Republicans love their
toddy as dearly as any of Petroleum
V. Nasby's cross-roads people are
painted as loving it.
It is alleged that the recent reduced
Democratic majority in Kentucky was
largely due to a revolt of the young
Blue Grass voters against the extreme
war preferences of the elder members
of the party. The young men claim
that those born in post-bellum days
ought to have some recognition, but
that old war-horses persist in " hog
ging" politica. The Republican party
in the North, so fond of pinning all their
hows on dead issues, and waving the
bloody shirt, may find something in
this. It is considerably over a round
score of years since peace spread her
wings again over a distracted country,
and the immortal hero of the Wilder
ness saiil "Let us have peace." Th e
men who were born after the
war closed are in the politi
cal arena. They protest that lie
ing born out of due time should not
deprive ihem of their birthrights. A
civilian candidate may prove stronger
with these than the most doughty hero
whom these same youngsters may
hold iv great respect—as a hero.
Lucky Baldwin's horses won nine
stakes at the Saratoga races which
have just closed. That is not so bad
for one California stable against all the
very best stock of America.
