LANCASTER A MILL TOWN

Is 1t practical to erect gold stamp
mills at Lancaster? Yes. We say it con-
servatively and advisedly after an in
vestigation of the facts. Ore can be
hauled here from the St. Elmo, Buttes
and other districts and milled at profit.
Mill men had been here and talked of
erecting mills in the artesian belt, but
we ignored the matter as wholly i'm
practical until we saw the situation at
the mines. In the several districts there
Is absolutely no water and little hopes
of getting any except at an enormous
cost. 1t will be far cheaper to haul the
ore to where water Is abundant.
A Southern Pacific official was in Ian
caster this week and went over this
whole proposition with US. The citizens
of Lancaster and vicinity will give land
for mill site and a flowing artesian we'll
free. The Southern Pacific will make
special low rate for freight on coal, oil
or other fuel. They will also give other
inducements and courtesies for starting
mills here. The good direct road from
Lancaster to the gold mines has demon
strated that ore can be hauled here at
minimum cost. AS basis Of calcula-
ton, the writer offers to contract to haul
ore from the st. Elmo district to Ian
caster for Sc per ton. No doubt this price
will be lowered by competition.
Now 81 a ton is paid for hauling ore
to Koehn Springs mill from the Rands-
burg district. This is twenty-seven miles
from Motave and costs $6 per ton to get
fuel. produce, ETC., from the railroad
there. A mill in Lancaster could be run
very much cheaper because, it is in
producing section, would have abund-
Verify. the erection of ten-stamp gold
quartz mill here would be a good thing
for all. Let us put our shoulders togeth-

Wrapt in ashen gloom.

Said he was at Harvard lately.

Charon saw him sigh and shiver
On those murky shores,
While he pushed out in the river
And resumed his oars.
In the silence all unbroken.
Desolate, supreme,
Not a syllable was spoken
All was like dream.
Through the leagues Of gray unending,
Still the pilgrim lone
At the oars watched Charon bending

TREAT ALL ALIKE

The Herald is altogether in favor of
maintaining the highest possible stand
ard Of official conduct for the municipal
authorities, but it realizes that it is not
the province Of the city government to
separate the sheep from the goats in
the community's social life. Of if
so separated to exterminate the goats.
The Herald insists that it is the duty of
the authorities to exercise close and care
full surveillance over whatever tends to
disturb the peace or compromise the dig
nifty Of the community, but there Is a
vast difference between prosecuting vio-
lators of the law and prosecuting them.
Nor is it incumbent upon the authorities
to undertake the extinction Of such vices
as are common to every commercial CEN
ter. but it is their duty to minimize the
evil
However desirable 1t might be to say
that Los Angeles had not single un-
clean person or enterprise within her
corporate limits. the fact remains that
to expect such a condition would indi-
cate lunacy. That there are immoral
women in Los Angeles there is no doubt
whatever. but the number Is never
greater than the demand of immoral men
for them. and when war is made upon
them and they are driven hence, their
places are promptly taken by new faces
in answer to the demand Of their i'm
moral patrons. The woman of bad re-
pute must have food and clothing, and
she must look to immoral men for the
necessary money. If men do not con-
tribute literally enough she is driven to
seek another locality. 1t is the demand
of the men of the community that de-
termines the number of lewd women,
gambling dens and saloons.
1t would seem, therefore, that il the
several social evils are to be abated, or
confined within prescribed limits, the
proper way to go about it would be to
have police surveillance over those who
make such places possible. That is to
say. make no distinction between an i'm
