Ex-Mayor RAIDER has the right to be

the affairs of Los Angeles the past two
years, for the people are we'll satisfied.
The city is in better condition every way
than it was when he assumed the duties
of chief executive, and he set pace in
administration which his successor may

public concerns of the municipality.
Large expenditures of money for public
improvements We're made during Mr.
Raiders term of office, but they are per-
manent improvements, and the city is

A Fresh Start.

Today an unlimited chance for reform
and betterment is supposed to open before
the world. The day for new resolves and
the creation of higher IDEALS has come and
doubtless civilization will receive its an
nual impulse as a result Of millions Of in
d1vidual resolves to go forward, morally,
mentally and every other way, during the
year to come. Such determinations might
with equal benefit be reached and enforced
on any other day Of the three hundred and
sixty-five. No statute operates to postpone
repentance to the beginning of new year.
or then to wipe out past msdeeds. Yet the
custom prevails Of using New Year day as
moral clearing house for all the slips
and backslidings Of the year, and it Is well
that there should be such a point of time in
the minds of men a. a nucleus for future
good behavior. 1t is modern mans way of
reforming, and in the absence of a better
way, or more certain way, 1t must be
accepted with thankfulness. Reform on
this day need not mean only the oblitera-
ton of bad habit; 1t may include the ad-
oltion OF new virtue. The former is q
negative method Of becoming better, which
presupposes virtue lying latent, to be
awakened by resolve and to drive away an
unwholesome influence or a tendency. But
there is also possible q process Of affirma-
tive reform which is the best of all, for It
contributes most generously to the positive
gain OF society. So there can be no ex-
empts on this day. none beyond the need
OF the influence of q stimulated moral
sense. The new leaf is within the reach
OF every human being alive on this first
day Of the year Of grace 1897.

Joseph B. McCullagh, whose death oc-
CURED yesterday in St. Louis, was one of
the foremost figures Of American journal
ism, yet from his recluse habits In his alb
sorption in his business he was personally
very little known throughout the country
The Globe-Democrat of st. Louis Is his
monument. 1t represents the best work of
a man who had no other view save that
which led to its successful publication, and
whose talents were first and last trained to
Journalism, to the exclusion Of all else
Lacking Wholly any taste for social sur
roundings and amusements his ways and
manners were those Of a hermit, and in
some respects he resembled Horace Greeley
In his management of the affairs of his

triflers. With all his many peculiarities he
was great editor, having gone through
every phase of the training necessary to
this end, serving in tie ranks as a reporter
and later corresponding from the front in
war times and from the capital during a
stirring pt Rod Of the nations history His
invention, the stated interview with public
men, has become one of the features Of

1t is the hope of many that before The
Star can present another summary of year
ly events steps will be definitely taken to
abolish the grade crossings that now
blight the prosperity of two sections Of
the city, and that the plans adopted will
be satisfactory to the people. Many other
public improvements are within the pos
sieiiities of the coming year. A long step
ahead was taken when a free public

Congress. The city post office building

OF the structure even by that time. The
annoyances to the public In some branches
of municipal administration are forgotten
