communication to congress protesting
against unentered lands in the hills be-
ing made a part Of the forest reserve.
The attempt to amend the liquor

late and the measure should be passed
as it came from the senate. If the vote
is an indication, the fight against the
bill has been abandoned. Bills were
passed establishing a department of
printing at the reform school and ap-
propriating money for the deficiency
in the Brookings college fund. The

SAN PEDRO AS A NAVAL STATION

At the time the news was received
from Washington that the naval board
had recommended the construction at
San Pedro harbor of great floating
dry dock, it was pointed out by this
paper that the carrying out Of the pro-
ject meant that San Pedro would ulti-
mately become an important naval
station. This view is now borne out by
the published report of the board. 1t
is pointed out that wherever there are
docks, repair shops must be established.
Port Royal was a place of no import
ance three years ago, but is now fast be-
coming an important naval station.
There is great significance in the re-
marks OF the board in which the import
ance of establishing a naval station al
San Pedro is outlined. The report says:
We are, from a naval point of view,
weak in comparison with the great ma
val powers of Europe. and the naval
strength of Japan is growing SO rapidly
that within a year or two she will also
overmatch us in available strength in
the Pacific. Every effort is then neces-
sary on our part to at least retain COM

WHY DOES HE DO TIP

The San Jose Mercury prints every

he signs his name for the reason that
he is not a coward and because he does
not like to stab anybody or anything
in the back. He ought to have as much
consideration for his own self. 1t takes
one who is either a brave man or a
fool to sign such an article as that ap-
pearing in last Sundays Mercury.
In one chapter Of that article, trife
less than half a column long, Mr.. Short

Mr. Shortridge also let's his readers
into his confidence to the further extent

this is strictly true he ought to have

Analysis Of the list of deaths tends to
emphasize the healthfulness of the eli
mate of Southern California and the i'm
proved sanitary conditions prevailing in
the city of Los Angeles OF the SS deaths
IS were from pulmonary consumption,
and only two of the IS decedents were
natives of California or the Pacific coast,
Thirteen had lived here less than ten
years, and seven had lived hereless than
thirty days. This latter figure shows
how great a proportion of people who
come here suffering from pulmonary dis
eases delay their coming until it is too

diseases reported only four resulted in
death. Over against the total sS deaths
may be set total of 125 births. The an

to supplement our naval strength by
providing accessible places for repair
and docking and by Notifications so
located that when our squadrons are
pressed by superior force they may use
them as supports in holding the ap-
proaches to our coast.
1t is clear that an enemy from abroad,
who is obliged to draw all his supplies
from his home stations, is greatly cir
cumscribed in his movements and lim-
tied in his power to injure. If such an
enemy meets upon arrival on our coast
even a much weaker force held COM
pactly in hand with supply and repair
Afacilites near, the advantage is still
with the United States.
This is true with respect to Japan,
but it should not be forgotten that Great
Britain has splendidly equipped naval
station at Vancouver that would make
her base of supplies very near in case
of war.
1t really looks as if we were going to
have dry dock at San Pedro in addi-
ton to harbor of refuge. 1t looks, too,
as if Secretary Alger may be placing
the country in possible jeopardy by de-
laying the harbor bids There is no
probability at present that we shall
have a war with any foreign power. II
We should it is not pleasant to think
that our coast may be placed in addi-
tional peril through the unwarranted
delay caused by the secretary of war.
