ANNOUNCEMENTS
SATURDAY. JUNE ~. 1908.
LET THE PosLOFFICE ALONE

Elsewhere in today's Herald will be
scheme on foot to shift the local post
Office some more. As might be expect
ed, the promoters are people who regard
this federal Office as pretty good stim-
ulator of values, and if necessary they
would doubtless favor placing the institu-
ton on wheels and rolling it to any par
ticular part OF the city that seemed to re-
quire little booming. At this particu-
lar time there is no need to move the es-
Enlistment, and there is no public de-
mand for its removal. 1t should stay
right where it is until some better reason
than is apparent at present can be ten
dered in favor of the change. Senator
Stephen NJ. White has very properly and
promptly taken steps to acquaint the
postotfice department at Washington with
the facts in the case, and 1t is to BIO
hoped that the effect of his com munica-
tion will be to at least delay action by
the department until the public can be
heard. While it may be true that the
present building is none too large for the
needs of today, and with the rapid
growth OF Los Angeles will be lnsuffic-
lent for the requirements of the near
future, these reasons afford no adequate
edifice is better adapted to the business
for which it is used than any other in
the city, because it was specially con-
structed for the purpose. When addi-
tional room becomes essential it may be
obtained by building on the forty feet ad-
joining the present structure on the
south, and by adding one OF two stories
to the top. A large part of the business
of the city has adjusted itself to the
present office and its branches and would
be seriously incouvenienced by the shake
up that would accompany a change. And
q most important consideration in the
matter is the fund Of $2s, 900 contributed
by the property owners of the vicinity
toward the purchase of the present site.
This contribution was made with the ex-
pectation that the postotfice would at
least stand still long enough for the pup
lie to find out about it. Now, before
aalf decade has passed, and just as
business establishments ars beginning to
invest in the locality, the proposition
comes to change for the sake of benefit
ing some avariclous real estate holder,
interested in another part of the city. 1t
is a proposition that, to say the least, in
wolves dishonoraole treatment of those
who helped with their subscription to
place the Office on che present stefan
act of bad faith that no popular exigency
demands. The postoffice is not boom
instrument ality, but business institu-
ton for the benefit of the public. 1t
should remain where it is until the I'M
doubted needs of the public call for its
romoval

A local barber has been arrested for
keeping his shop open after - M, May
30th. IN violation Of law enacted by the
last session of the legislature. A good
many people in California consider them
selves free and untIamelled. This little
episode will assist In rubbing away the
illusion. The last legislature evidently
believe that the function of government
is TO restrict and not protect men in
their natural rights. Those disciples of
Jefferson Who have ndrsed the ioea that
they have a right to.spend any day as they
wish 40 long as they infringe not upon
the rights of others, will now proceed to
uniearn the lessons of democracy. They
must prepare to acquiese in the PROPOSE
ton that they have only such rights as
the majority choose to grant. The idea
that mensare born with rights and that it
is only the business Of majorities to de-
wise means Of securing these rights, is
Anticipated and absurd, for the Califor-
mia parliament in its transcendent wis
dom has virtually so said.
