which is illustrated.
The second of the Invaluable articles on

ladies as the letter last Sunday from the
court costumer, Mr.. Alfred Manning of
Dublin. Tomorrow Charles Drecoll of vi
emma, facile princeps in his art, writes a
letter that is not only of technical value
but is entirely entertaining. Mr.. Drecoli

AIl o,po.ed to Scored socletles


To the Editor of the Los Angeles Her
aid: notice in your issue of the 10th
In reference to the National Christian
associations meeting at the U. P. church,
corner of Eighth and Hill streets, your
reporter makes a statement which is
very misleading.
He says: "The association is composed
mainly of United Brethren and Free
Methodists." The facts are, there are
twenty-seven denominations in the
United States which speak out either by
constitutional law or legislative enact
ment against secret societies.
Rev. Samuel Swartz of the NJ E..
church, Morris, ILL.,. is the president Of
the association. Rev. DR., Campbell OF
Monmouth. I'LL, United Presbyterian.
is vice-president. Rev. VIM. I. Phillips
of Chicago, Congregationalist, secre-
tary and treasurer.
Among the denominations opposed to
secret societies, permit me to mention
the German Lutherans, Swedish Luth-
erans, Danish Lutherans, Norwegian
Lutherans. United Presbyterians. Re-
formed Presbyterians Friends, German
Baptists, Swedish Baptists, Adventists,
both branches Wesleyan Methodists.
Free Methodists, United Brethren, sew
eral associations of Congregationalists
and Baptist churches.
Though we be feeble folk" we are
no more unpopular than were the anti
slavery people in this country forty years
ago. The writer (who is the present

tends.

why We should Save the Forests

To the Editor of the Los Angeles
Herald: Knowing the deep interest OF
the management of this paper in all
questions of forestry, I write to you.
hoping that l may be able to arouse a
deeper interest in the people and the
government officials in the preservation
of our mountain forsets. Widespread
destruction is continually going on, both
by fire and the woodman's ak, where
the timber Is accessible. Whether this Is
from lax enforcement of the law or the
know. Certain 1t is, unless prompt action
is taken, our watershed will be much
curtailed and our mountain canyons be
shorn of their beauty.
Our places for pleasure parties and
pcnics are all too few, at least those
that are accessible. While this use of
our canyons is not the most important
still 1t is an important one. and of more
value to the people than the paltry sum
that can accrue to the Gespoilers Of our
beautiful mountain canyons.
In one canyon-San Dimas-the for
est destruction is going on rapidly. A
large force Of men are at work.cutting
all accessible timber. Cutting has been
going on, not only on land owned by pri-
vate parties. but has in some cases ex-
tended to government and Southern Pa
:
force has invaded land inside the for
estry reserve. Members of a certain
water company claim to own some Of
the land where the cutting Is being done.
The feeling seems to prevail that in
some cases at least, the title is very
shadowy The claims to title should be
carefully investigated, injunction pro-
ceedings should be instituted, and all
cutting stopped. or it will be too late
to save the trees, even though the tres
passing parties are punished.
The preservation of the watershed Is
the all-important thing. The saving OF
our winter rainfall is problem that
interests every resident of Southern
California. The prosperity Of every in
dustry in this region depends on agri-
culture, and a successful, remunera-
tive agriculture depends very largely
upon the water supply available for
summer irrigation. The annual rain
fall is ample to supply all our needs II
it could be preserved. 1t can be pre-
served better by encouraging timber
growth on the mountains than by
building storage reservoirE.

socialism in his empire. If he should
kill all the socialists in his country there
would not be enough people left to make

THE PUBLIC PULSE

1.-THE present administration Will be
the same as though Grover Cleveland
had been elected for third term dc
ciares Senator Cannon of Utah. Very
far from 1t, senator. Cleveland Is DEM
ocratic in spots. and Mckinley does not

to true Democratic principles,

Business is getting better in nearly
all lines of trade and traffic. and If Pres

nation convening congress In extra ses-

retarding factor in the business world.

not object to the profession"

A PUBLIC LOSS

1t is but rarely that community ex-
periences such a sudden shock Of gen.
uine sorrow as that felt in this city
yesterday at the death of one of its most
enterprising and valued citizens.
The sudden taking off of Mr.. Kiit-
land H. Wade in the prime Of his man.
hood and the zenith of his activity Is 4
public loss and is mourned as such. Few
men have made more distinct and ap-
preciable mark upon the progressive
history of Los Angeles during the past
few years than the late general manager
of the Southern California railway.
A eulogy of Mr.. Wade's personal quail
ties would be superfuous. Nothing
could be more eloquent than the tribute
of one of his closest comrades: Il have
never known a man, occupying such
responsible position who had so many
friends and absolutely no enemies"

We made a great deal of fuss over
Sanguillys imprisonment in Cuban
Jail for a political offense, as we should,
seeing that he is an American citizen.
But who is this Sanguilly? He is a ma
tive of Cuba, but. expecting to rebel
against his government, and knowing
that if he were captured he would be
shot, he thought that in such an emer-
gency it would be handy to be a citizen
of the United States. He skipped over
to this country, took out naturalization
papers, and went back to Cuba and iden-
titled himself with the insurgents. He
was captured and sentenced to be shot,
but, being an American citizen, the
Washington government had to save
him. Sanguilly never paid a nickel in
the way of taxes to the United States.
nor did he ever have a home upon Amer
ican soil.

week or so ago General Weyler caught
up a Frenchman and put him in prison.
The French consul politely requestedthe
release of his countryman, but Weyler
only laughed at him. With true French
politeness, the consul bowed himself out
of the captain-generars presence, but
Immediately cabled his government all
the particulars of the case. Two days
thereafter a French warship quietly
sailed into Havana harbor, when the
consul again requested the release OF his
countryman, and Weyler made haste to
release him. There is an object lesson
in that little affair which our state de-
partment might study to some purpose
The plan of Secretary of State Sher-
man to extricate the United States from
present and prevent future complica-
tons with Spain over the participation
of American citizens in the affalrs or
Cuba will not meet with public favor.
No doubt if Spain. by and with the con-
sent of this country, would Danish all
Americans from Cuban soil. with the
understanding that if any returned be-
fore the termination Of the war and
were caught they would be summarily
dealt with, we should have no cause to
maintain any but the most friendly re-
lations with the Madrid government.
The man who stands aside and permits
a big bully to pound small boy is not
in danger of becoming involved in the
affair, but all decent people would re-
gard him as a very brutal and a very
contemplate sort of a fellow.

Continued developments in the gold
fields of Southern California indicate
that smelter will be necessity of the
near future. 1t should be centrally To-
Gated, and as site for such an industry
San Bernardino and Los Angeles both
have claims. In this connection atten-
tion is called to the presence at this
time in Vancouver. B. c., of five firms
seeking a location for such an enter
prise. The disposition of the promoters
in seeking for a bonus is not character
lied by a remarkable degree of reticence.
They ask all the way from $4,000 to
S150,000 in cash, with free water, free
site and exemption from taxation.

The hatmakers Of the east have dis
covered that the fur of the jack rabbit
is excellently adapted to the manufac-
ture of felt, and we may therefore hope
that the hat men will invade California
in force. Rabbit skins are used also in
manufacturing the coney cloaks so much
admired by ladies for winter wear. If
the manufacturers of the east really
have a long-felt want, California can
without doubt supply the demand.

The new form of applications for sa
loon licenses adopted by the police COM
missioners are now ready, and all appl
cations in future must be made on these
blanks. The requirements are the most
stringent ever adopted and it will take
a good man to come up to the standard
established. Any man who has ever
himself been addicted to the liquor habit
is practically barred, as is also anyone
ever charged with disorderly conduct
of any description. The form of appli-
cation is printed in full in another col
umn. The form as adopted is the work
