THE herald AND MR.. MoLYNEAUx.

In regard to the Hutchison- Molly
neaux controversy q Mr.. Todd OF Po-
mona has lengthy article in the Prog
ress Of that city, in which there are
some errors in his statement about the
HERAID's part in the affair.
The facts of the case are as follows:
Mr.. Todd called st the HERALD office
and said he was investigating the
charges against Mr. Molynesux in the
interest OF Pomona people who wanted
to know tho facts. He was referred to
the files of this paper containing the ar
ticles about MIR. Molyneaux. and tho
volume was hunted up for him.
In the conversation with the city edi-
tor Mr.. Todd was told that it had just
been learned that Mr.. Frank House had
number OF interesting facts, but he
was not in any way given TO understand
that Mr.. House had furnished any data
for this paper. As matter of fact, Mr..
House had never mentioned the matter
to the HERALD until after the exposure
of Mr.. Molynesux's methods had been
printed and the facts that were printed
came from smother individual.

THE PUBLIC LIBRARY INIQUIrY.

There is really something amusing in
the libel suit brought by Miss Tessa l..
Kelso against the Rev. DR.. Campbell
because that exemplary gentleman de-
livsred q fervsnt prayer in her behalf.
Ordinarily any lady would be gratified
at being prayed for by a distinguished
representative OF the gospel OF Christ.
There is something Ohristianlike and be-
nevolent IN such an exercise OF the cleri-
cal function. But Miss Kelso's libel suit
shows that there are some persons that
do not desire to be prayed for-who
would rather be let alone, so to speak.
The whole passage reminds one of sn
incident in the career OF Chriat which
brought out that poignant exclamation,
"Jerusalem, Jerusalem, l would have
gathered thee as ths hen gsthereth her
chickens, but We would not" Now We
will just suggest that it is hardly chivsl-
rous on the part OF Dobinson to
throw Miss Kelso into the breach.
We will add that the effort OF
the clergy of Los Angeles to purify the
public library Of this city is a most
praise worthy one, and by persevering in
it they will win q splendid victory for
morality and good local government.
Having put their hands to the plough
they should never relax their noble ei-
forts until victory sits on their stand
ards. The HERALD has entered upon
this crussde to stay. Wherever We dis
cover an abuse in our local government
we intend to denounce it, aud to keepo
denouncing it till remedy is effected.
This is the secret of the transformation
OF the HERALD from Democratic organ
to an Independent journal. There is no
reason why the HERALD should not en-
ter into every family OF the city and
county OF Los Angeles. Its great iunc-
ton, hereafter. will be the redressing OF
local abuses. This public library in
iquity is the most Aagrsnt of them all.

that the hungry poor cannot resist the
temptation to purchase.

This business has got to stop. I'll

where these sardines came from, and l
