WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER ~, 1907.
THE NEXT SENATOR

The Los Angeles Times of last Sun
which was contained in it's title-"The
South Desires a Senator The article
might be divided into two parts; the
first-why the south desires senator.
and the second-what the south desires
for the senatorship.
The Times speaks for the whole COM
munity of Southern California in say
ing that the south desires senatorship.
Custom, precedent, justice and fairness
all unite in admitting the claims of this
section to one of the two seats in the
upper house of congress assigned to Cal
ifornia, and it is not at all probable that
anywhere.
So far our esteemed Republican con-
temporary and all the people take COM
mon ground: but we now come to part
ing of the ways. The Times says that
the Republican party should not only
elect a successor to Governor Budd, but
that it should also name successor to
Senator White. So anxious is it to ac-
complish the latter end that it cheer
fully, nay persistently, gives over the
governorship to the Northern California
Republicans, who have not yet said that
they wanted it. Such magnanimity in
politics must surely have an bodied
motive behind it.
But the Times does not want Senator
White to succeed himself. Why? Be-
cause he is Democrat. 1t pays high
tribute to the senator-"the strong, able
and honest man who now holds that
office, yet wants to displace him, to
replace a certainty with an uncertainty.
It is possible that our morning con-
party of California; that remains to be
seen. But it is certain that it does not
speak for all the people Of this state,
and all the people will have a consider
able voice in the matter of electing the
next United States senator.
What is the matter with Senator
White? The Times testifies that he is
"strong, able and honest" and it points
out further that at is fact that never,
until the election of Senator White, has
this end of the state been able to get
that hearing at the national capital
which it's Importance demands"
Certainly, and Senator White secured
that hearing for Southern California
through sheer force of character, ability
and capacity for hard work. The SEN
ator is serving his first term in the upper
branch of congress, and it is to be
doubted if any man has ever before
equaled the record made by him in the
same short time and under the same
circumstances. During the recent extra
session of congress he was one of the
three recognized leaders of his party in
the upper house. He is member of the
committees on finance, coast defenses,
commerce, census, irrigation and arid
lands, and territories, and in all of them
he has rendered distinguished service
He has faithfully represented the in
terests of the people of this state.
No more could be said of senators
who have served half dozen terms in
the senate, yet Mr.. White has held his
seat but four years. That he would in
crease his own usefulness to the people
by another term it is needless to say.
On the other hand, the people of Cali
fornia would make a great mistake il
they should replace the man who has
made the best record ever achieved by a
Californian in congress by a new and
untried man. Nor would the Republi-

At a session of the gas and light COM
mittee of the council last evening it was
determined to readvertise for bids under
the old schedule. 1t will be remembered
that the recently proposed contract was
defeated for the reason that it would
have exceeded the city's available funds.
If the lighting is done under the old
specifications it means no lights for
the newly annexed territory, an ad-
herence to the moonlight schedule and
no inspection except that which may be
made by the city electrician in testing
currents. 1t will be poor shote" of
fighting service, compared with the
enlarged needs of the city, but it will
probably bring the expenses down to the
size of the lighting fund.

Become Embarrassing

The act of Thomas Farr of Los An

guard over his home for fear some one
will steal his wife is certainly compli-
mentary to the lady, but might, 1t would
seem, easily become embarrassing.-San

A Little Iowa Campaign Scandal

Dispatches from Des Moines, Iowa,
say that there is something of polit-
ical scandal on account of the refusal
of the present Republican state Off
cials to put their mite into the Republi-
can campaign fund. Other expected
sources of material support have proved
to be failures.

The Pail Mall Gazette, in long article
on American competition in the iron and
steel industries, says: "The causes
which are giving the United States such
everything points to the United States
remaining the cheapest producing coun-
try in the world" Correct. We sell
steel rails abroad cheaper than we sell
them at home, and pile on prohibitive
protective tariff to keep out the COM
petitors that we undersell in their own
country. That is the science of pro-
lection.

Senator Morgan

Senator Morgan is one Of the most
able, fearless and useful members of con-
gress. He has positive opinions and he
does not hesitate in expressing them.
His Americanism is of the right kind,
for in considering all public questions
his first solicitude is for the people. Party
is matter of secondary

MisAt Prosperity

The herald., 1897-10-27

The news of Senator Morgan's illness
was received with grave concern by all
the people, and it is gratifying to learn
that no serious results are expected
from his indisposition. The senator is
advanced in years, and, although re-
markably vigorous, cannot endure what
he could twenty years ago. He will
find Southern California mighty fine
place to get well in.

An Apology for Huntington

Mr.. Huntington's company has been
selfish and extortionate in many in
stances, but what other company has
shown more generosity? The railroads

they do much to develop country at the
same time. No one proposes to dispense
with them.-Santa Monica outlook.

The Republican papers are wishing
that Senator Thurston would muzzle
himself until the New York campaign
is over. The senator tried to whip the
Tracy by telling them that if Tracy were
beaten for mayor there would be no
more Republican presidents. AS Tracy
is pretty sure to be the last man in the
race excepting Patrick Jerome Gleason
the Republican politicians are trying to
persuade themselves that Thurston was
"only fooling" when he made his singular
remarks.

NAPoLEoN's VALUE OF VICTORY
1t Finds a Striking Counterpart in
Recent World Triumphs.

Napoleon knew well theivalue of a vic
tory. After Auster1itz the world seemed
his. Fame invited fortune favored, every
thing ftinu1ated his aspiring ambition.
With growing power he gathered the fruits
of victory. And so has it ever been. Sue
cess succeeds. A notable illustration of
this truth is furnished by the great vic
tories won at the Worlds Fair in '93 and
the California Midwinter Fair in '94 by
DIR. Prices Cream Baking Powder. Ever
increasing sales and popularity have been
the result. The people have promptly
ratified the official verdicts that declared
DR.. Prices, for leavening power, keeping
qualities. purity and general excellence
the foremost baking powder in all the
world" Quite as quickly as the great
Emperor do they know the value of VIC
tory that means worldwide supremacy.

vitality Of Cats.

It's an old saying that "a cat has
nine lives" and, like most old say
ings, not supposed to have any truth
in it, but from recent investigations
it really seems that a cat can hold
on to life under circumstances where
any other creature would die. A
cats life may be proved to be at the
least three times the worth of a

same age in ''lethal chamber. -
The cat will always outlive the dog.
On one occasion it was noticed the
dog was dead in minutes and
the cat still breathing 40 minutes
later. A cat has been known to re.
cover after two hours immersion in
cold water, and another came back
to life eight hours after apparent
death from dose of prussic acid.

The Flight of the SUN.

Astronomers know that the sun,
accompanied by the earth and the
other planets, is moving toward a
point in the northern heavens with
great speed. Just what the velocity
is, however, cannot yet be told with
certainty. Professor Simon New
comb, in a recent lecture, said that
it was probably between five miles
and nine miles per second. The
bright star Alpha Lyr@ lies not far
from the point toward which the sun
is moving. Every moment we are
getting nearer to the place where
that star now is. when shall we
get there9 Probably in less than
1000, 900 years, perhaps in 500, 600. "
