The Solemn Trutt.

The prohibition idea is q delusion on the
face of it. Any man who "knows the ropes"
can get all the liquor he wants in any of
the prohibition towns of Southern Califor-
mia. The system seems particularly de-
signed to ncommode and disgust strangers.
=. If prohibition did really prohibit,
there might be less TO be said against it.
However, as we have said. prohibition does
not prohibit, so that the Prohibitonists
have not leg to stand on. You cannot
make people moral by act of congress. You
cannot enforce law that has not the ap-
proval OF a majority of the people. An in
telligent, practical community like that of
Riverside should cease to aim at the inn
possible Let us take the liquor business
out of the underground channels in which
it now runs, piare it Oh a sensible, business
footing. grant licenses only to men of good
character, who can give substantial bonds
to run orderly places, and business will be
greatly improved. and we shall not run the
risk of becoming n community of hypo-
crites.-Riverside Enterprise.

SENATOR BATE, of Tennessee, pulled
down Missouris Vest handsomely Oh
Monday whsn the senatorial chum OF
Tillman, Butler and Stewart renewed
his demagogic attacks on Secretary
Morton. According to Vests own con.
fession now, the secretary of the agri.
cultural department is not guilty of
the acts of favoritism alleged against
him by Vest a few days ago. And so,
as Senator Bate says, the poetical per-
grafton in which orchids and lilies OF
the valley and dog fennel and the
softened light of scintilating chande-
liers and red wine we're all tar.
gled up together was just senatorial
flapdoodle. Only cheap oratorical

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY II, 1890.
THOSE STREET GATHERING S

The evangeli5tlc preachereS5 has
been arrested again for obstructing
the sidewalk of Spring street. With
an able-bodied pertinscity shs stays
with the game. This last charge of OBJ
struction will in all probability stay
with her until she pays the penalty.
The first charge is in doubt because
the city ordinance under which the
feminine minister of salvation was ar
rested gives the police jurisdiction
only over the sidewalks, whereas at the
time of her arrest she was utilizing
the road way for a stamping ground
and in q technical sense could not be
held responsible for the blocking Of
the side walk. The later charge, how
ever, is better grounded in the fact
that the defendant persisted in hold
ing down the sidewalks herself in spite
of the repeated requests Of the polio !,
for a movement She will therefore
have to pay for monopolizjng partic-
ular piece of the pave.
In way the picturesque preacher
and the stick-to-it preacheress
have performed outside of their
evangelistic labors most excellent
service for the people Of Los Angeles.
They have aroused the public Of this
city TO reaiiz alton of the fact that a
great abuse has grown up here; an
abuse of the public streets, misuse
OF public thoroughfares. And the ar
rests hAvs developed the other inter-
esting fact that the only laws on the
books providing against street OBJ
etruction are entirely inadequate fol-
the purpose in mind. The result will
most likely bs that the public will
demand that the misuse Of the
streets cease and that an ordinance
covering evsry possible contingency Of
street obstruction will be enacted.
Regarding the policy and principle
Of keeping public streets free from the
confusion and obstruction Of public
meetings of any kind there ought to be
no division of opinion among sensible
people. There is no room for quibbline
about personal rights. AS The HER
AID has heretofore stated nc right o1
assembly or free speech is infringed or
by refusing to allow street assemblies
The streets are dedicated to the use o
all the people, not some of them; they
are intended for the passage Of people
and not for the congregating of them
That is the Alpha and Omega of the
proposition.
The contentious of an evening con
temporary regarding the arrests are
wholly irrelevant. They display zig
gag process of reasoning that reminds
one of Virginia snake fence. In pro.
hibiting the USE of streets as meeting
places no discrimination for or against
any party, society or denomination
would or should bs involved. For the
same reason that it is wrong for the
parties just arrested to thus use the
streets, it is wrong for others to do it.
Let people individually and collect
lively come and go at will through the
streets but hold meetings or services
never.

CLEARED $4,000

A striking illustration of how men
sometimes make money in real estate
deals is furnished in the person of a
prominent Chicago journalist, who is
now the sole proprietor of one OF the
great dsilies of the windy, smoky city.
Not long ago the person referred to
bought corner lot, G7x75 feet, Oh Van
Buren, street and Customhouse place,
for $4,000. A few months ago be sold
the ground for $3.50, thus making a
clean profit of $4,000, or 70 per cent
on his investment. Only fifteen months
elapsed between the purchase and the
sale. The ground was vacant when he
bought it and he put no improvements
on it during the period Of
his ownership. Other people, how
ever, did make very val
liable improvements in the immediate
vicinity of the newspaperman's vacant
lot. Several of those Improvements
are among the most costly and impos-
ing of Chicago's business blocks. The
city as a whole also increased the
number of its business enterprises, the
population grew more numerous, the
volume of business swelled to greater
proportions. and as result of such
improved conditions the selling value
of that particular piece of ground in
creased as above stated. So with no
effort on his part, the lucky journalist
cleared $4,000 from the efforts Of
others.
Then there is another interesting fea-
ture Of this transaction. In 1889 the
lot described was valued at $152000
In 1892 its value was $l9S,000. The
total amount of taxes paid on the lot
from 1889 to the time of its sale by the
journalistic speculator was only $1,000
That sum deducted from the value of
the property in 1889 leaves $l91,00 as
the amount which the city of Chicago
virtually donated to the journalist and
the former owner or owners, within a
period of about six years.
This, however, is only one, though a
cons picuous one, among numerous re.
cent real estate speculations in large
and growing cities. 1t is obvious that
while moneyed men can find invest
ments in vacant lots so immens, ly
profitable they will, as rule, prefer
them instead of putting their capital
into Improvements or into productive
enterprises. Especially will that be
the case 80 long as vacant ground is
taxed but lightly and every improve
ment and every species of personal
property is subject to heavy taxation.
Nobody should be blamed for specu-
ls ting in vacant ground. The law per-
mits them-nsy, invites them-to thus
speculate. Whatever evils attach to
land speculation should be charged
not to the spectators themselves but
to our lawmakers and their constitu-
ents.

Learn to Be Tolerant

A correspondent whose communication,
in spite of its anonymous character, gives
evidence of the writer's sincerity, takes
the trouble to tell us that he does not
agree with us about certain sentiments we
have expressed regarding public questions.
That is his privilege. We regret, of
course, that he does not see the matter
from our standpoint, for if he did we
should agree, and that is always pleasant.
But we would respectfully suggest to the
writer, who fairly represents a class, that
the honest newspaper writer can hardly
expect to have the approval of every
reader. If he should-instead of his own
attempt to express the differing views of
the thousands who may read his words, he
would, of course, fail most lamentably.
He can best please his readers by sim
cerely expressing his own sentiments.
| Then he is 1T least sure of tho approval of
his own conscience, and if his words are
worthy of consideration he may hope in
some degree to help to form public
sentiment. To the extent that he is
he may make eXcusable. In the discussion
of national and local questions it would
be pretty nearly q political millennium if
men would always express with franlness
and courtesy their opinions, and take no
oifense at the fact that their neighbors
held and expressed diametrically opposing
views: and when the argument was ended,
and the verdict OF the polls rendered. ac-
cept in happy quiesc snce the result. This
might be ii it were possible to eliminate
the oifice-seeker, whose selfish aims stir
strife and discord in the hope that by
bringing in personal interests and preit.
dices he may secure advantage over an op-
ponent. When true civil service shall at
last be adopted in local, state and national
affairs. and officials are paid only what
their services are worth, and routine
duties are done by men who are assured
and honest. then much of the unneces-
sary bitterness and harmful contention
our campaigns involve will disappear. But
men will never perfectly agree as to meth
ods aud policies, any more than they will
about religion. And yet they generally de-
sire above all the good OF their section and
of their country, and could here unite Just
as all Christians could upon fundamental
things II in political and religious mat
ters we could only keep always in mind
the common ground where we all can
stand, and press our views no farther than
we would have our neighbors, the world
would be so much more like heaven thai
we should never get so weary of it as to
sometimes long for change. If some of
the loud-mouthed reformers who try to
make men better by legislation would first
apply to themselves as individuals the rules
they would attempt to enforce upon others,
we are convinced we should make greater
progress. The man who SO lives that his
children truly respect and love him is likely
10 leave an influence that will go further
than any experimental legislation may &C.
oinplish.-Riverside Press.
