That such an administrative provis-

course the vehicles complained of are
necessary, and people, even the peo-
pie who complain, desire to have them
at call, but some arrangement certainly
can be made whereby they can be dis
tributed or stationed in less crowded
part of this city. In addition to seek
ing redress from the vehicle blockade,
the Herald suggests that the merch-
ants and business men generally petit

COMPETITION VS.. MONOPOLY

An evening contemporary that The
Herald regrets to see frittering away
its strength and popularity in a futile
effort to stem the wave of indignation
aroused by Mr.. Huntington's attempt
to secure at Santa Monica private
harbor at public expense, makes rather
free use of the fact that the Santa Fe
railroad enters Santa Monica, ascrib
ing to that road the part of competitor
with the Southern Pacific to tide water
at that point, and suggesting, of course,
the inference that the Santa F'e peo-
ple are in favor of the deep sea harbor
being located at Santa Monica
Now. .then,it is plain to everybody ac-
ouainted with the situation at Santa
Monica. and The Herald has done it's
share in exploiting that situation, that
the Santa Fe does not and could not,
should a deep sea harbor be con-
structed there, compete with the South
arm Pacific for the handling of ocean
commerce at that point. The Santa
Monica terminus of the Santa Fe is
nof within several miles of the harbor
site. and for the reasons pictured and
described in The Herald could not

But it would not be promulgating ''the
truth as 1t sees it" to pretend that
genuine Democratic government ex-

That the government under which we
live is undemocratic is no fault of the
federal constitution builders, however,
for if that instrument were construed
and administered in strict accordance
with it's letter and spirit, actual Democ-

But ill-inspired sappers and miners

demoralizing good citizenship and in
