If the people of Southern California feel the need of any tonic stimulus after read- | ing the depressing account of life in their section as described in Miss Harraden’s story of California life, they can find it in |an article by William E. Smythe in the current number of th~ Atlantic, on “Real Utopiesin the Arid West.” The portion of the article devoted to Southern Cali- formia 1s not lon-, but it is sufficient to dispel any gloomy ideas which may be | beld, either at home eor abroad, con- ;cerning that beautiful section of our country. | Mr. Smythe says the evolution of South- | ern California may be studied In the ex- | perience of two representative colonies, Anaieim and Riverside, and of the or- ganization, development and success of these he gives an account whose truth needs no addition of glowing adjectives or laudatory phrases to make it atiractive io home-seekers. After pointing out that | the districts in which these now-flourish- ing settiements have grown up were once regardel as barren wastes, he describes the condition of prosperity which obtains there and pictures the Jife of the peopie as far superior to that of rural residents in any portion of the East. Miss Harraden'’s heroine found her chief objection to the country in-its lack of so- ciety, but Mr. Smythe asserts that it is ture and a Republican United States Senator. Tire Democrats who controlled the poli- tics of the State and won office and fame for themselves in the Nation have gone | from power. Utterly discredited and divided one against the other in biiter fends, they have so demoralized their party that there is littie hope for them of regaining their former prestige, and we have probsbly scen the last of Carlisle, | Blackburn and Dreckinridge as conspicu- | ous figures in National politics. 3 The new Senator will undonbtedly have 0 exert himse!f vigorously to fill the place of the Senator whom he succeeds, for | with all his 1aults, Joe Blackburn, as the | people of Kentugky delight to cali him, is | a man of more than ordinary force of character. His personality is one of the | most interesting in political life, and while 1t is best for the weliare of the busi- ness interests of the country tLat he as well as other free-traders and erratic statesmen should be dismissed from office, the Senate will nevertheless miss him, and ita debates will be dulier for the lack of the vim and vigor of his oratory and his actions.

Every man who invests a dollar and tries his best by industry to make two dol- lars out of it is an advance agent of pros- perity and helps o get it started. ‘With Carlisle and Blackburn out of the Senate Kentucky may rightly consider | herself at the beginning of a new eraand procced to count on better things.

Clay, al- though nearly 5 years old, is as vigorous as the average men of 50, and the slipof a pirl whom he married Lwo or three years ago has developed iato a splendid type of womanhood. The Boston Journal has bad interviews with all the New England delegation in Congress and has learned from them that they do not expect the tariff bill to be adopted before July 1, while one of them, s.ortly after the sdjournment of the In- ternational Irrigation Congress at Los | Angeles in 1893, the delegates 1o which at- tended a banquet given by the people of Santa Ana. At the close of this feast Senor de Ybarrole, representative of Mexico, in an alter-dinner speech paid a haudsome com- pliment to the (adies who had waited on the table. One of the representatives from France afterward expressed surprise that a public compliment should be given to servants, and was amazed when in- formed that those wi.o had waited on the table were the leading !adies of Santa Ana. *Do you mean to teil me,” asked the French delegate, “that the leading ladies put on aprons to serve strangers?” ‘‘Cer- tainly,” was the reply, “for in this coun- try service is a title to respect.” The incident, as Mr. Smythe says, “illustrates at once the hospitality and the equality which are characteristic of the social life of Soutbern California’’; and we can add that if Miss Harraden’s heroine, or any other person, is unfitted to enjoy life in such society and amid such surroundings she has only herself to blame. In all such dissatisfiei persons there has been a defect in the bringing up, and, like Mrs, Poyser's chickens, they ought ‘to be “hatched over again and hatched different.

It is stated that since March 1, 18 Spain kas sent to Cuba ten generals, regimental officers and over 180,000 sol- diers. ceeded in attaining no sort of military success, and Lis only accomplishments have been the laying waste of wide dis- tricts of the country and filling the minds of peaceful cultivators with terror. titution and fear have been the means by which be has sought to establish peace, and it is not to be wondered that the offi. cers who are charged with carrying out his cruel orders feel in many cases senti- ments of revolt which they cannot con- cal even though they dare not express them openly.

Little seems to be gained from ons week to another, or even from month to month, but when we contrast the conditions of the patriots with those under which they were strug- gling a year ago, we can see that much has been accomplished for liberty and that the cause of independence has made notable progress. To the eves of those on the island, the evidence of this advance on the part of ‘he patriots is clearer and more convincing than to outsiders.
