FATHER DUCEY'S PLAIN TALK

The Rev. Father Ducey, one of the
most prominent and most popular Cath
oic pastors in New York city, and man
who is noted for saying what he thinks
and believes, in his sermon the other day
said:
AS a priest of the Catholic church I
say to you from this pulpit that the
present condition of the poor in the
United States cannot go on. The Cath
olic church must lead for the emancipa-
tion Of the poor from the present social
and economic slavery: the church must
lead as the emanclpator Of the working
classes, and the states, the United
States, it's senate and its house of rep
resentatives, must make laws to pro-
tect the peoples rights and abrogate
the laws that have been made by bri-
berry in the interest of fraud.
The Herald has consistently urged
that justice and equity must precede
permanent prosperity. Whatever may
be the temporary conditions, whether
hard times or good times prevail, we
must go back to the first principles of
and justice if permanent good
results are to be obtained. There is
fundamentally wrong in our
social and political system, and it will
have to be corrected before we can make
genuine progress.

The people Of the United States are
accused of putting too much enthusiasm
into their political campaigns. but they
will have to give first place to the sister
republic Of Uruguay. At a recent cam
paign meeting held in the interest Of
Senior Cuestas for the presidency a
riot ensued. in which several people were
killed and many were injured. 1t would
seem that an election riot Is more fatal
down there than a full-fledged revolu-
ton.

SEEING LOS ANGELES

Paris with an approximate population
of three millions, yet covers a smaller
area than does Los Angeles. The strik-
ing difference in density of population
and number of habitations is suggestive
of the greater aggregate comfort. health
and happiness of our people, each of
whom practically lives in an atmosphere
quite his own. From the nucleus of the
pueblo, Los Angeles has expanded into
magnificent proportions and in all di-
rections. each suburban annex possess
ing beauties and attractions altogether
unique. Local pride pride in the native
beauty and picturesqueness of the citys
seat and in the civilization that has been
unfolded here is we'll nigh universal, and
The average citizen seldom grows weary
in boasting of the grand achievement
Of Los Angeles. 1t is, indeed. in gen.
eral and in particular (unless in the in
terest of palpable fact, we except certain
grievous defects in the paved streets).
a scene fair to look upon. and one cal
culated to inspire the dullest heart In
fortunately, however, the average Wis
itor seldom sees more than the smallest
fraction of what is we'll worth display
ing, and what it is to our interest to
bring to his attention The man who
spends a day in elbowing his way
through the throngs on Spring street
or Broadway, and who has taken sim
gle hurried spin through the residence
section Of the southwest. has yet but
superficial notion of the real charm of
our possessions or the true measure of
our growth and development. Few
cities possess such satisfactory facilities
Of transit as those of Los Angeles, for
there are few inside or outlying sec
tions not embraced in their ramifica-
tions. But time, patience and physical
endurance are exhausted in an attempt
to see the better portions of Los An
geles by means of these utilities, and it
is seldom completely accomplished.
A feasible adaptation of them, how
ever, is comprehended in scheme that
which might profitably be introduced
here. An observation car, capable of
seating seventy-five people, is twice
daily run over a selected route of twen-
ty-five miles, taking in all the more at
tractive features on all the lines of street
railway, for the especial accommodation
of visiting strangers and their local
friends and entertainers. A well-in
formed guide accompanies the car upon
each trip, pointing out to the tourist
that which is best calculated to inter-
est and instruct, short stops being made
to facilitate this design. The charge for
the round trip of twenty-five miles is
25 cents. one cent a mile, which doubt
less covers the cost to the transporta-
ton companies, while affording the Wis
itor delightfully."- unique excursion.
covering three hours of time, at a merely
nominal expense. In the rotundas of the
various hotels the plan and purposes of
! the Seeing Denver" excursions are
conspcuously pacarded, while the
guide makes announcement of the same
just prior to the departure of each car
Few visitors to Los Angeles, however
impecunious, would fail to take ad-
vantage Of such scheme for securing
comprehensive view of the city.

The chief difficulty in the way Of the
success of Count Galuchowskis S scheme
for a combination of all European coun-
tries against American commercial COM
petition is the jealousy. both grand and
petty, which each European state enter
tains for the other, and which is so
intense as to preclude the possibility Of
uniting them upon even so desirable a

A large element Of the native popula-
ton of Spain has reason to rejoice over
the failure of the Sagasta ministry in
purchasing peace with autonomy. Free
to make their own revenue and tariff
laws, the Cubans would not be very
likely, now or hereafter. to favor the
manufacturers Of the. mother country.
The fact is, of course, fully recognized
at home, and will continue to inspire op-
position to anything that smacks Of
Cuban liberty or independence.

Zola's glowing enthusiasm IN behalf

The native picturesqueness of Los An
geles thoroushfares is not enhanced by
the hideous billboards that disfgu-e so

has announced through the newspapers
and the city pulpits, that she would re-
pair all broken dolls and toys that might
be brought to her, and that they would
be distributed among the poor children
for Christmas presents. 1t was a simple
idea, yet it has proved to be very
happy thought. 1t has become so popu-
lar that each year several wagon loads Of
toys have been distributed among the
poor children at no expense. One or more
of the benevolent societies has usually
undertaken to see that the toys are
properly distributed.
The same plan might well be carried
out in Los Angeles, provided there is any
one with the time and the ingenuity
necessary to make the repairs. There
is hardly a family containing children
where there are not broken, discarded
dolls and toys. that with little mending
could bring happiness to many little
child whose Christmas would otherwise
be desolate indeed.
Who will open a doll hospital. toy

THE SCHOOL BOARD SCANDAL

And now 1t is the Los Angeles school
board which is charged with being pe-
culiar in it's ways. There has been a
dizzy succession of such charges against
various school boards in this state, and
it is becoming living question whether
these bodies are particularly bad are
strikingly unlucky in being found out or
are still more unfortunate in being un-
justifiably suspected. At any rate,
something is wrong, and an explanation
evidently is needed.-San Francisco Ex-
aminer.
Los Angeles has set the state a good
example in many things and has now an
/ opportunity once more to show the abil-
ity of her people to deal rightly and ef-
fectively with matters Of public concern.
One of her school directors has admit
ted having aided others in collecting
money from teachers, janitors and other
employees of the school department, un-
der threat Of depriving them Of their
places, and now the state wants to see
what Los Angeles will do about it.
The Los Angeles school board may not
be more corrupt than that in other cities,
but by the confession of Director Adams
Los Angeles has a basis of direct evil
dence upon which to work that other
cities do not possess in making an inves-
tigation in the interests of school reform.
1t is for that reason the attention of the
state will be directed to see what she will
do about it. She has now an opportun-
ity to enforce the maxim of General
Grant, Let no guilty man escape" and
If she does SO the state will once more
have the pleasure in pointing to her os
city Of light and leadership.-San
Francisco Call.
