UNCOVERINO. THIEVERY
The latest revelations concerning the
defaloations of the county clerk's office
furnish interesting reading for tbe tax
payers of this oounty. They go to
prove the assertion that has been prev
iously made by The Herald that there
exists in the court house a combina
tion of derelicts, official and unofficial,
organized for purposes of mutual pro
tection. The faot that Frank E. Low
ery had stolen $7000, it seem?, has been
known for months past by men whose
sworn duty it was to protect the tax
payers of the oounty from thieves of
every kind and description. Now that
the facts concerning tbe defalcation
have come to light, these same officials
close their lips arid refuse to reveal to
the grand jury the inside of the rotten
ness that it is known existed. The
weak and puerile conduct of the dis
trict attorney's office is an almost, ab
solute protection to official scoundrels,
whether they be outright thieves or
whether they adopt indirect methods
by which to cloak their schemes to de
plete the publio treasury.
In tbe public offices of this county,
one administration seeks to cover up
and hide tbe criminal delinquencies of
the one tbat has preceded it. An hon
est, fearless administration of tbe dis
trict attorney's office, with the co-oper
ation of a majority of the board of
supervisors and of every official in the
court house, is needed badly. Until
then, the half that has been done that
should place betrayers of publio trust
behind prison bars will never be
known,
The masterly endeavors that have
been made to prevent the rotten condi
tion of affairs that has existed in tbo
county clerk's olbce reaching the pub
lic, is only an indication of other mat
ters that have 'men and are being cov
ered up. The Herai d will endeavor to
throw the calcium iighl, on the opera
tions of the conrt bouse ring from time
to time. It is a duty to the people
which we will cheerfully perform.
THE RAISE IN LEATHER
The people who control the leather
business of the United States are about
to raise the prico of their commodity
by decreasing the output of the same.
This act, of course, cuts like a two
edged sword—it affects the labor mar
ket, unfavorably by throwing thous
ands of men out ol' employment, and it
makes the things composed of leather
harder for people to obtain because of
the enhanced cost. Many, and ofteu
eurioas, are the comments made by
the press of the country regarding this
move of the leather combine. Most
ourious of all the editorial utterances
on tbe subject aro those which clamor
for direct legislative interference with
such procedure us the leather combine
has seen fit to adopt. ,1 ust what this
interference will consist ot hug not
been very clearly dttluol by its advo
cates. Unless it is intended to enaot
laws which will compel the leather con
cerns to continue in operation whether
they desire to do so or not, it is hard
to see how a legislature or a congress
can directly prevent a raisin? of the
price of leather by the method utilized
now. And it is not likely tbat anybody
in this republic- will ever gee the en
actment of laws compelling men either
as individuals or corporations to oarry
on a private business againet their will.
Under a monarchist or socialistic form
of government something of the sort
may be done, bat not under a republi
can form.
There is nothing supernatural or
particularly inexplicable about the
leather combine. Like every other
monopoly, it rests on special privilege.
There is a tariff on leather suftloient to
deter vigorous foreign competition,
and iv oonsequeuce the American
leather manufacturer has, up to a lib
eral point, a oinch on the domestic
market.
To shatter the scheme ot the people
who make up the leather combine, it
is not necessary to violate any sound
political principle, to enact any laws
that will require anybody to continue
iv business when they wish to suspend,
or tbat will prevent them charging bb
much or as little for their own proper
ty as they wish. In other words, it is
not necessary to do anything that in
terferes with anybody's personal or
private rights, and which would there
fore be nndemocratio,but only to do that
which would tamper with no personal
right and be most distinctively Demo
cratic—deprive the leather combine of
its special privilege by putting leather j
on the free list. The leather manufaot- I
AN APPEAL TO SANTA CLAUS
As this is the particular season for charity and
making others happy, The Herald invites all who feel
like conferring some of the happiness, that ought to be
the lot of all children, upon those little ones whom Santa
Claus might otherwise overlook, to send to the Free
Kindergarten Association donations of money, toys,
clothing, or anything that will make poor youngsters
joyous. Such gifts will be received at The Herald busi
ness office, and acknowledgement made in these col
umns. If a generous response is made to this offer many
little stockings hung up on Christmas eve will be filled
which otherwise would hang limp and empty, and will
insure the givers and recipients a merry Christinas.
The Herald hopes that as a result of this appeal its
office will be filled with packages for the little ones and
its columns crowded with the names of tha donors.
arers long einoe had the benefit of un
taxed hides; let the psople get tbe
advantages of untaxed leather. Tbe
leather combine buys material and
labor in an open and competitive mar
ket, but the people bay leather in a
comparatively non-competitive market.
Put the combine on the same level
with the people and make competition
and trade freer.
novß HIM OCT
While the board of supervisors will
meet today in session held for the con
sideration of other than general busi
ness, there is nothing to prevent the
county legislators taking up any sub
ject. And no subject of more immedi
ate importance can engage their atten
tion today than the fact that Dr. Bar
ber in his selfishness and inhumanity
is abusing tbe position he holds by
using a part of the county hospital,
constructed at considerable expense
for a maternity ward, as his private
resid°nce.
The supervisors should oust the doc
tor from tbe quarters he has usurped,
and they should do so today. There is
absolutoly no reason for a day's delay
in the matter. The hospital is none
too large for the peculiar purposes of
snch an institution; there is not room
sufficient to permit of its occupanoy
for residential purposes. fit is es
sential to the successful management
of the hospital that the superintend
ing physician reside within the
grounds, a cottage suitable for bis oc
cupancy should be speedily erected,
but by all means and at all hazards the
maternity ward should be vacated by
the superintendent, so that it may be
utilized for its rightful purpose.
Tim inability of the European pow
ers to agree on any method of institu
ting governmental reforms in Armenia,
so that tbe people of that unfortunate
district may bo protected in their lives
and property, oilers a striking eoui
montary on the estimate tho aforesaid
powers hold of each other. Under the
treaty of Berlin tbe great powers are
in duty bound to see that the Arme
nians enjoy peace and order, and if
they were a little more sincere and ;sss
distrustful the barbarisms of the Turks
and Kurds would be speedily checked.
As' authority on the fashions for
women states tbat tha bustle, which
for five years has been relegated to ob
scurity, or tbe oloset drawer, or shelf
—we don't know which—is to come
into use again, and that even now it
may be seen in the east in its incipient
Btages. This does not interest us per
sonally, but we do confess to a palpi
tating interest in what the brand new
woman is going to do about it.
"Infidel Bob" persists In hia refusal
to bo converted, notwithstanding the
invocations on his behalf by thousands
of zealous Christian Endeavorers. Tbe
practical political! would consider tbe
efforts of the Endeavorers very ill ad
vised. In trying the efficacy of prayer
on such a toughened and hopeless case
us that presented in Ingersiill the pres
tige of prayer is endangered.
Fii ty bodies, victims of tbe barbar
ous sultan of Turkey, are said to have
been discovered by a diver at the bot
tom of the sea near Constantinople.

LOS ANGELES HERALD: 1 ! MONDAY MORNING. DECEMBER 16, 189b.
FREE GOLD AT BALLONA
Practical Tes'.s Made by Mining Ex
perts Yesterday
Tho Precious Metal Scattered lor Miles Along
the Beach—Company to Exploit
the field
The directors of the Pacific Beach Min
ing and Dredging company, accompanied
by several mining experts and a ELXRALD
representative, visited the property of the
corporation near Hallona yesterday for the
purpose of making further tests of the sand
on the:r claims, with a view to getting the
opinion of the experts of the gold pros
pects and looking over the ground for a
suitable place to erect a plant for its devel
opment.
The following gentlemen composed the
party, whicli left the city at X o'clock in the
morning: J. C. Lane, A. McXally. Thomas
llarmody, L. A. Cardwell, D, A. Moriarty,
G. W. Goodman, George Blake, Harry Par
ker and W. J. Sheridan.
Arriving at the camp, tho first thing that
was done was to got out a prospecting pan
and wash a shovel full of sand. It was
taken from the surface a few feet back
from high tide mark and washed with salt
water, which had been previously treated
with acid to cut the oil which accompanies
it. Every one watched eagerly for the re
sults of the first trial. When all the coarse
white sand had been cleared away, leaving
only the fine black sand, several shilling
colors were seen. They were sufficiently
large to be clearlyjdiscernible by the naked
eye, and varying in size from the tiniest
speck to little granules the size of a pin
head. Other trials were then made at dif
ferent points along the beach fora distance
of throe-quarters of a mile, all of which
turned out some gold. In one instance
thirty-six colors were found iv a single
shovel full. The best results were always
obtained from the Mack sand or semi
concentrates, which is much heavier than
the white and Composed largely of iron
I and other minerals. No attempt was marie
] to prospect the sand other than right at the
i surface. Some was tried, however, from
the bed of tho surf, which yielded more
than that from high up on the shore.
G. W, Goodman, who is an old mining
man of more than thirty years' experience,
1 expressed the opinion that the sand along
' the beach would turn out on an average $2
to the ton. Some that was proepeeted ho
; said would yield $o. The supply is inex-
I haustible, as the Held which has been pros
; pected exiends at least two miles alone
I the shore. The gold is deposited by the
waves from ietlues at a distance from the
shore. The land leased by the company
' from Col. Dan Freeman is situated be
tween two reefs, which form a natural way
i through which the water rushes with great
I force, depositing fresli supplies of sand on
j tiie beach at every ebb of the tide. \V. J.
I Sheridan, one of the best known mining
men in the west, made a careful examine*
j tion of the property,and while not express
ing himself with great enthusiasm, said
I that the sand could be made to pay if suffi
cient capital were engaged in exploiting
the held.
The company intends to build a plant
arid commence operations as soon as the
■ industry can be properly organized. Their
! plans are not yet matured, hut iu all prob
j ability hydraulic force will be used in
I working down the sand banks. The press
| ure will come from a ram placed in tbe
I ocean and connected with a turbine wheel.
I from which power will be obtained for op-
I erating the plant.
j A meeting of the directors will be held
I tonight ami matters will be put iu shape
, for developing the mines within as short a
; lime as possible.
THE SOCIAL EVIL PROBLEM
The Solution ol the Evil as Suggested by One
Who Claims Rxperience
Illinois hall was lilled to its fullest seat
ing capacity by the people who, despite
i the inclement weather, turned out to hear
i Professor Hell and mind-reader Xyndall.
Willoy's orchestra furnished a pleasing
half hour's entertainment, and Miss Ho-I
sina Rosin's songs wore encored. I'rofes- 1
j sor Bell gave a recitation, and then began I
his address on "The social evil, or can the
i fallen wowen of our large cities be re- ]
claimed'.' ' There was very little of the
theory in his talk. It was for the most
part of a practical nature, and based on his
personal observations while superintend
: ent of the Midnight Mission for Fallen
Women in New \oik. and his work in Lon
don and other cities, In part he said:
"it is a dark question,this, of human
frailty, of fallen men and women,for, mark
you, there is u fallen man for every fallen
; woman; yes. more than that, it lias been
proven by careful statistics that there are
seven fallen men to one fallen woman, f
have only been in Los Angeles seven
weeks, but 1 have observed that the minis
terial union is much disturbed over the
fact that the police commissioners will not
scatter vice broadcast over this fair city,
Preachers and reformers hav e some very
pretty theories which will not hold water
with the experienced men of the world who
; aie usually put in authority to look after
the public peace. Those who have studied
; the "social evil" with the hope of coming
! to some solution of how to remedy it, know
' that it would be disastrous to scatter that
element broadcast in the community.
1 * Ifficers whose sworn duty is to help keep j
the peace know that oniy by herding can
the.' hope to control it, Students of this
: subject know that Japan best controls it.
There all houses of prostitution are two
miles from the city limits and tho locality
given up to that element is enclosed with
walls and gates and otherwise regulated
i by law strictly onion eel. yet we send mis
sionaries to Japan to civilize tbe Japs, In
: my opinion Los Angeles has oause for con
gratulation in that the houses of ill-fame
' are confined to a distinctive locality."
i Professor Bell then cited conditions in San
I Francisco and eastern cities, which oom-

parison was much to the advantage of this
city. He then related his experiences in
going through the "tenderloin district"
with Chief Glass, and in which he compli
mented the police upon the order main
tained, and then said: "While the inclina
tion to sin is in the breast of mankind, the
social evil will exist. It can be com
pared to the dregs in a cask of
wine; the better the wine the
fewer the dregs; asjsociety improves, its
dregs, fallen men and women, will vanish.
But that time is not yet, so keep it together,
don't pollute the whole social life. Tho
preachers and others who would scatter
this element do not say as did the meek
and lowly Jesus, "Go and sin no more. 1 '
No; they say, "Go and sin somewhere
else."
Prof. Bell then related some of his expe
riences in the midnight mission in New
York, and made the statement that after a
careful record of the 700 women cared for ]
eight out of ten took up the life through
being betrayed and shut out from society,
one per cent only were so because of na
tural depravity and one per cent from
love of dress and disinclination of work,
in giving the solution of the evil he lirst
cited the difficulty a woman encountered
in trying to reform. He related the story
of the prodigal son and which story he said
could lie applied to these days every day
in the year, where the fatted calf is killed
when the prodigal boy forsakes his ways,
and society receives him witli open arms.
But who ever heard of the prodigal daugh
ter being so received. He though', that
much of the money spent in foreign mis
sions could be used to better advantage in
building homes where fallen women could
be cared for and taught some trade where
by they ceuld become independent work
ers, lie would have such a home in con
nection with every church.
Prof. Tyndall then appeared and was in
good form and seeming in good condition.
He accounted for this in that as he was
getting himself into condition for his burial
test he had greater clairvoyant powers. He
stated that during the past few days he
had seen things as he had never seen them
before. He described people in the
audience very accurately and performed
the murder test and several others. He
seemed very much in earnest about his
burial.

Nobody knows When natters Will Be Ar

tiets Another Trlnl
San Bernardino, Dec. 15.—The Electric
Light and Power company, which has been
supplying the city with lights, shut off all
the street lights at midnight last evening
and tonight, and for an indefinite time to
come the city will be in darkness.
The trouble has grown out of the rejec
tion by the board of city trustees of the
power company's bid of $7.25 per light for
the ensuing year. Last year the company
furnished the city lights on a contract of
$si>s, or $8.95 per light, and a raise of
11.30 per light caused the Iniard to reject
all bids anil rendvertise. The notice as
published is peculiar and may mean a
great deal. It says: Bids shall be for
liehtinsr the city for one year from March
10.1806.
City Trustee Hiram Barton has resigned
his position, and rumor has it to engage in
operating the city street car lines by elec
tricity und perhaps the Harlem Springs
road. By placing tho contract three
months ahead it will give time for the new
company to enter die Held as a competitor
with the three alreudv in operation. Iv
the meantime, with burglars more nuiner
ciiiihnn usual, citizens are wondering if
ih?y will have to live in darkness for the
next three months. The contract with the
power company has expired, and no other
company has a plant suitable to supply
the city with lights.
