LOS ANGELES AT ATLANTA .

AT present the outlook is very favorable
o our having display at the Atlanta
opposition. It is to be regre tied that the
rection of California building was left
20 the enterprise of woman. Not that
she has not proven competent to perform
the task, quite the contrary. We should
have had building at the Atlanta expo
sition erected by California and superin-
tended by state representatives. How
ever, in view of the fact that this is not
the case and that Mrs. Dooey, as a stroke
of private enterprise, has erected build.
ing in every way becoming the dignity
OF California, we should avail ourselves of
the opportunity now presented. From
the tenor OF the correspondence between
the chamber OF commerc and che owners
of the California building it would ap-
pear that an opportunity is open whereby
we may not only be allotted ample space,
but make sure that our display will re-
ceive proper care ana arrangement. 1t is
greatly to the advantage of Los Angeles
to be represented at Atlanta.
The south is our one great competitor.
The opportunity now presents itself for
Southern California to make a display in
competition with her rival. The south
has the advantage of being more easy of
access from the most populous districts
OF the east. Many persons make q trip to
the south every winter who seldom if
ever come to California. 1t is this class
of people upon whom it is desirable to
make a favora BILE i'm preston.
Again it is greatly to our advantage to
nd yertise Our fruits and other resources
among people who will attend the At
lanta exposition. Not only will the peo-
pie of the east attend very generally, but
excursions have been arranged from as
far west as Denver
The raising of funds to carry out such
an enterprise ought to be the easiest part
of the programme. Calfurnians are pro-
verbally liberal on such occasions ana
this of all others should be no exception
to the rule.

DEFECTS Of CITY GOVERNMENTS AND THEIR REMEDY
BY ABBOT KINNEY

would be simple. None OF the political
convention or machine methods would
be of much value, for the concentration
of attention on one executive ofhcer
would enable the citizen to perform his
political duties intelligently. without the
present prolonged political preli nary
work growing out of the confusing null
tiplcation of candidates.
American city government is failure
economically and morally. 1t is so bad
that it is poisoning our whole political
life.
This is the unfortunate condition. Yet
the city is the center OF our intellectual
and social life. The system is evidently
wrong that out of such good ground pro-
duces such noXious weeds. What We
want today in America is a simple and
effective plan OF city government. One
that is on a basis capable of efficient and
harmonious action, and one that to carry
out does not require too great sacrifice
of the citizens time.
An essential part of such new city
political system is civil service plan for
the selection, at least, of all the subor-
dinates now occupying position to the
mayor analogous to that OF cabinet
officer to president. The public library
Of Los Angeles had an ideal civil service
system. Under that plan a certain num-
ber of applicants for positions were al
ways in training for the library. These
were admitted as cadets without salary
after reasonable preliminary examina-
ton. After six months test they were
called on in another examination to show
that thew could properly perform the
duties of library assistants; a failure to
pass dropped the cadet, while creditable
examination paper put them in line of
promotion.
There Is no reason why a similar sys-
tenn could not be inaugurated in the po-
lice, fire, health and other departments,
not excepting that of udltor.

JUDGE ROSS DECISION

The decision handed down by Judge
Ross is of vital interest to California. As
the decision is likely to be sustained
upon an appeal it can now be said to
practically establish a precedent. Judge
Ross lucidly sums up the circumstances
and applies the law thereto. His decision
is one of equity and justice. While for
the time being the decision may be con-
strued as blow to the DEVELOPMENT of
California, by irr igation districts, yet the
present law being defective, it is better to
have the points passed upon now than at
some later tina when the results of an
adverse decision would be more disas-
trous. If the present law is practically I'M
constitutional, it is better that such fact
be developed now in order that future
legislation may steer clear of such errors.
In this instance it is question of the
rights of corporation as against those OF
an indiv vidual. While the interest of the
community may be paramount the lndi-
vidual has rights which are inalienable.
The fundamental principle of all repub-
lican constitutions is the protection of the
individual against stronger bodies. 1t is
for intrudin upon the rights of the lndi-
vidual that the present irrigation laws
have practically been declared unconsti-
tutional.
In this sense Judge Ross has performed
commendable task.
The next step in order is to frame a
aw which will not intrude upon individ-
lal right while providing an equitable
olan for the irrigation of our arid dis
ricts

THE NEW WO1AN

OF late years the term new woman"
has come into general ule. 1t can hardly
be termed a coined phrase for it has
direct significance. Although one should
not be at a loss to know the meaning of
the term, yet 1t has about as many defini-
tions as there are people. Each one gives
it definition according to his peculiar
way of thinking and his conception of
what constitutes a ''new woman" I'm
fortunately there is a class of women
whose chief mission in life seems to be
to ape man in his peculiarties, customs
and habits. Such women are 10 her sex
what the dude" is among males. Now,
no one endowed with common sense
would think of calling dude a new man.
Then why apply the term new woman to
. similar class just because they happen
to be females? Such a procedure is a
miscarriage OF definition that would not
be tolerated by Webster.
However, there is another class of fe-
males. to whom the term new woman
may be applied and tit more aptly. they
are the grand army of workers whose
ranks are being recruited every day. A
few years ago the vocations open to
women were limited in number and
scope. 1t is different today, when there

The above table is confined for the
most part to such occupations as have
been invaded by the new woman. 1t
does not include the 200. 900 women who
are classed as domestic servants. nor the
100000 engaged in agricultural pursuits.
nor the 2sS.000 dressmakers, nor the
las, 900 seamstresses, nor the $1,000 mill
liners.
1t is a curious fact that IN such capaci-

domestic service. etc. etc, the percent
age of gain is only in keeping with the
increase in population.
1t will be noticed by the above table
that it is in the professions woman has
made the most marked gain as to num-
bers. Therefore. in view of the fact that
there has been no marked increase in the
number of women employed in the voca-
tlons in which we have always been ac-
customed to find her, and on the other
hand that she is largely invading the
professions, we must conclude that the
new woman is a professional woman. 1t
is during the past five years that the
new woman has been most in evidence,

moro surprising figures than those given
for 1890 would be revealed. Several pro-
fessions not enumerated in the above
table have been invaded by the new
woman, and in almost every instance she
may be said to have captured the citadel.
The percentage of failures scored by the
new woman is much smaller in proper
ton than is the case with men IN the
same vocations. rhis is probably due to
the fact that woman in her endeavor to
succeed in her new calling concentrated
all her energy on the one point-success.
1t would appear from the evidence tnat
the new woman is the professional
woman. The term should have broader
meaning and include all females who
rank as wage-earners in any vocation
outside of callings as we have heretofore
been accustomed to find women.

MILWAUKEE, Feb. Am electric car
on the Russell-avenue line, filled with
people, went through the draw of the
hlnnickinic bridge this afternoon. The
weight of the car broke the ice and the
car went to the bottom of the river. 1t
is believed that number of passengers
were drowned.
The ice broke the windows of the car,
which stood on end and only partially
filled with water. The confusion was
such that nobody could tell an hour after
the catastrophe how many people lost
their lives, but it is estimated that at least
three passengers, besides the motorman,
are dead.
There were ten or twelve people in the
car, the exact number being unknown.
Six were taken out alive.
Those rescued were: w. P. Severy,
whose hand is cut; a. O. Ertel, q. W.
Chase, II. Kuehne, r. Nerand and Ella
NaCeholz, who is hurt about the shOul-
der.
The dead whose bodies have been re-
covered are Miss Ehiman, Kindergarten
teacher Of the Twelfth District Primary
SCuOo1 anu uauSnLef OF Professor Ehl-
man, Director OF Music in the public
schools, and John Kennedy, the motor
man.
The bridge had been opened to permit
the passage of the fire boat Foley, which
was breaking the ice in the kinnickinic.
The Foley's crew rendered valuable as
sistance.
Miss Schmidt-Kunz, employed at the
National Knitting Works, is among the
dead.
The accident was due to the careless
ness OF Motorman John Kennedy, who,
however, stuck TO his post and was killed.

SO far as can be learned, there has been
no change in the bond situation. All the
officials are extremely reticout on the
subject and dacliae to either affirm or
deny any Of the rumors bIought to their
attention. One rumUr, which had appar-
emily good basis, was that the bonds for
the new issue We're already being printed
at the bureau OF Engraving and Printing,
put, like the others, 1t could not be con-
nrmed. The cOucensuS of opinion is
that bond issue to foreign purchasers
directly or indirectly, will be made very
soon, and that all the arrangements to
that END are substantially complete. The
amount which the Admins ration con-
Iemplates issuing, and may give notice of
az any time now, is SiOJ,O 900, to run
thIFty years. Arrangements, 1t is be-
IleVed, have been practically concluded,
assuring the Government that these
bonds Will be paid for with foreign gold.
