THE LAST STRUGGLE

Durrant's petition to the governor
would seem to have made some impress
sion upon the executive. At all events,
Governor Budd is prosecuting an ex-
ceptionally exhaustive inquiry and ex-
animation into the case. Within the past
few days he has visited and inspected
the scenes OF the murder of Miss Lamont,
as well az many of the places from
which witnesses testified upon the trial
that they had seen Durrant and his
victim together. Those who have
studied the methods of the governor
know full we'll that'if he is led to believe
that Durrant's conviction was procured
through plots or prejudice, as represent
ed by his attorneys, he will interpose the
executive clemency to save his life, ire
spective of the public sentiment. The
attempt that is being made to revive
the suspicion that at one time attached
to the Rev ]. G. Gibson is senea tional

A MATTER OF FITNESS

The trustees of the Whittier reform
school spent some time yesterday after
noon discussing the qualifications of the
several applicants for the position of
assistant superintendent of that insti-
tuition. No decision was reached, and
another meeting will be held this after
noon, when a selection will probably be
made. The names before the board are
Major Henry Oliver, late Of the Cincin-
natl reform school, eX-Councilman
George Pessell. and Messrs. Young and
James. OF all the candidates Major Oil
Yer is the only one who has had any
practical experience in reformatory
work, and his election is being urged
by Mrs. j. w Mitchell, president Of
the board, solely on the score of his Pc
culiar fitness for the place The lady
takes the broad glrund that as COM
plete change is made in the manage
ment of the institution, it is imperative
that at least one man or practical ex-
perience De installed to start the ma
chinery on the right track, and that poll
ties should cut no figure, it being stated

that Major Oliver IL Z Republican. She
states. however. that II an equally good
man Of Democratic proclivities Il pre-
sented. she would favor his election,
AS the case stands now. Mrs. Mitchell
appears TO have the best of the conten-
ton.
Major Oliver comes to California very
highly recommended, and he has the
advantage Of twenty-five years actual
experience in this particular line Of
work. and it would seem that he would
be an especially valuable man just at
this time. when the reorganization Is
to be effected. The history OF the Whit
tier school has not always reflected
credit on its management, and the new
board cannct afford to start out with
out at least one practical man on the
staff, more especially as the superin-
tendent himself is novice in this line
of work. 1t would appear that this is
a case where politics should be sub
ordinated to competency and practical

PAYING IT'S DEBTS

Secretary Alger Is properly blamed
for the part he is playing in the San
Pedro harbor matter. but, after all, he
is only the puppet whose strings are held
by the creditors Of the Republican ad-
ministration.
The Republican administration is hy-
pothecating the power placed in its
hands by the people to pay the debts in
Cured in securing that power. If there
were no trusts no monopolies, no Money
Power, there would be no Republican
party, for then there would be no ex-
cuse for its existence.
Mr.. Huntington Is large creditor of
the Republican party, and he has de-
manded that every possible obstacle
shall be thrown in the way of the San
Pedro harbor enterprise. 1t ie a de-
mand that the Republican administra-
tion dare not refuse. and Secretary AL
ger is only carrying out orders-orders
that are unwritten. perhaps, but which
are none the less binding.

WHERE DO THE PEOPLE
COME IMP

1t is reported that the representa-
tives of the sugar trust in the United
States senate have declared that they
will oppose the citrus fruit schedule in
the senate tariff BILL unless the demands
of the trust are granted in return for
their support
| 1t is impossible to enact law en-
bodying the principle Of protective
tariff that is not the product and the
creature of bargain, trade and sale. If
one section or one industry is benefited
| 1t is at the expense Of all the rest, while
the allied trust iniquity has so arranged
the operation of all protective tariff
laws that the few are benefited at the
Iexpense of the many.
Admit that a protective tariff on
citrus fruits, for instance, would be a
positive benefit to the people of South
ern California. But the desired rate
cannot be had, it seems. unless the oc-
topian sugar trust 10 helped in return
The resulting evil would greatly out
weigh the benefit to be derived, and a
great many more people would be in
jured than would be benefited.
The whole principle of the protective
tariff is wrong, and it will not Go to look
at it merely through local and indi-
vidual spectacles. AS at present con-
sitituted it is chiefly useful as means of
paying the debts of the Republican
party and the Republican administra-
tion at the expense of the people.
Thus we see the Republican admin
istration paying its debt to the money
power by upholding the single gold
standard; discharging its obligations.to
the trusts and the monopolies by manip-
ulating the protective tariff in their in
tereets; and getting square with the
corporations by making the leading de-
partment officials, as in the case of Sen
ator Alger, the subservient tools of COM
mercial pirates.
Where CO the people come in?

MAIN STREET IMPROVEMENT

In the matter Of the re-surfac cling of
Main street with asphalt, from First to
Ninth street, the property owners ap-
rear to be divided, as do also those on
| Spring street. and the indications are
that a sufficient number of signatures
to the protests will be secured to stop
the work, at least on the first-named
street. While street improvements are
always desirable, there is no use in
throwing away money, and there ap-
pears to be justice in the contention of
the protestants that the entire re-sur-
facing of the street at this time is un-
ture of a comparatively small amount
of money for repairs. the pavement will
last for several years longer.
There is no question but what a new
First to Fifth, over which there is n
great deal of heavy traffic. This is also
true of Spring street, but in a lesser
degree. This being the case it would
appear to be the better plan to tear out
all of the pavement between these
points, and, after putting in all the nee
essary sewer, water and gas pipes, with
suitable conduits for underground
wires, lay first-class permanent. pave
ment. Then let the streets south Of
Fifth street be repaired, which will
give the pavement a lease of life for
several years, after which the same
thing can be done as on the north end.
This, it seems, is the best plan. No
property owner wishes to stand in tho
way of the improvement of the streets,
but it should be done intelligently, and
ro money should be thrown away.
In this connection it is proper to say
that Mr. T. D. Stimson, who was quoted
yesterday morning as favorng the re-
surfacing of Spring street with asphalt,
was misunderstood. The impression
which he intended to convey was that
he favored putting the streets in first
class condition, but he did not favor re-
surfacing, a least until the street rail-
way company has laid heavier rails
all electric wires are put underground,
and a new sewer put in of sufficient size
for the street. In the meantime. he
thinks that the street could be repaired
at small expense to serve until all these
Improvements are made, and then what
ever is done will be permanent. Mr..
Stimson, by the way, is not an advo-
cate Of asphalt paving but favors vitri-
fled brick, pavement which has proved
cities.

The tariff dragons up again.
What ho! Ye brave ST. Georges!
Where is that champion of men
Who'll see that he disgorges?
Lie low, ye little business folk:
Go hide and rest ye quiet.
This modern Fafner is no yoke,
But full of rue and riot.
The flames he breathes will wither you
AS certain as the morrow.
His mission Is not revenue,
But ruin vast and sorrow.
His mission. so he says himself,
Is nothing but protection:
For growing stores of golden pelf
He has prediction.
He wants to take your cake from you,
And give it unto others.
He says-yet knows it is not true
It's for your working brothers.
He does not care rap for those
Who're seeking for employment.
He has no tears for paupers' woes,
He seeks but his enjoyment.
And he will give the biggest share
OF all his unearned booty
To those who'll pay him back the fair
Est portion Of the duty.
Alas. he's on the scene again!

Where is that champion of men
Who'll see that he disgorges? M
