The charter STIMULATES that all fees for certificates

THURSDAY NOVEMBER 20, 1so,
THE DAY BEFORE US

The Herald hopes there is not one of
son to be thankful today. Some Of us
may have had more than our share of
hard luck, yet, if we would admit the
truth, there is always something to lift
humanity and the individual above the
dead level of sheer despair. 1t is also
we'll to consider the law of compensation.
If we have had our troubles we may be
thankful that they are over.
Those of us who have been fortunate,
who have reason to give generous and
hearty thanks, have the responsibility Of
the unfortunate to remember. Do you
know any poor family that is likely to
look in vain for a Thanksgiving dinner
today? Is there no homeless young man
or woman who would be cheered by an
invitation to dinner? The giving of
thanks need not be exclusively oral. There
is better and more practical manner of
showing ones gratitude.
Thanksgiving is pre-eminently the
home festival and the time of family re-
union. 1t is so to more limited degree
here, because of the vast distances that
separate many of our people from those
they hold dearest. Nevertheless, the
true New England spirit of Thanksgiv-
ing exists in it's best form on the Pacific
slope, and the sun shall not set tonight
on day in which that spirit has been
wasted or lost.
This is also day of sport and recrea-
tion. In this respect we are indeed well
favored, for our glorious climate per-
mits outdoor games which in eastern
lands have been relegated to the back
ground until summer shall come again.
1t should be notable holiday in many
respects, judging from the programs that
have been prepared.
The herald., 1897-11-25
KEEP THE STREETS WHOLE

Spring street is to be resurfaced in the
near future, and Main street will doubt
less follow suit. There are other
thoroughfares which must at an early
date undergo similar improvement. 1t
is needless to say that, when such i'm
provements are made, certain other re-
forms indirectly connected with paving
should also be instituted. New street
car rails, conduits, etc, should precede
as far as possible all paving work.
The necessity frequently occurs, in
spite of all the precautions that can be
taken, for the tearing up of the paving
after it is completed. In every instance
when this is necessary the company or
individual responsible should be COM
PEELED to put the pavement in as good
condition as it was before it was torn
up.
Neglect to enforce this essential re-
quirement is responsible for much of
the bad pavement that now disgraces
our leading business streets. Holes have
been cut in the paving, the concrete
foundation disintegrated and taken up,
and then, when the repairs are made,
the debris has been dumped back into
the holes without any attempt to re-
store the previous condition. The con-
crete foundation is not restored, and
even if the places are resurfaced there
is nothing to sustain the asphalt. The
result is that depressions are made, to
become both an eyesore and menace.
There is an ordinance regulating this
matter, and the street superintendent
should see that it is enforced. The prop
erty owners, who pay the expense of re-
surfacing, and the general public are en-
titled to protection against this species
of vandalism.
The herald., 1897-11-25
AN APPEAL TO M'KINLEY

The people of Southern California.
wearied beyond human patience by the
shameful policy of Secretary Alger,
have appealed through the Free Harbor
league directly to President Mckinley.
They have determined to listen no more
to the base and miserable subterfuges
advanced by Mr.. Huntington's repre-
sentative in the war department. They
have answered every bubble, removed
every obstacle, offered every necessary
aid, without avail. They have watched
the secretary change from one excuse to
another and double on his own trail:
they have seen him cornered like a rat
in trap, and squeak defiance from be-
hind the authority of his official position.
AT last they are done with him. They
are going to headquarters.
The account of the meeting of the Free
Harbor league yesterday afternoon
makes mighty interesting reading. The
representative men of the city were
there, and they were terribly in earnest
The resolution passed by the league ap-
peals to the president directly to inter-
vene and to insist on the enforcement of
the act of congress. The Free Harbor
league does not appeal upon the basis of
local interest but upon the sound. in
controvertible ground of the demands of
the commerce of the southwestern por-
tion of the United States.
The harbor question was given a new
turn yesterday by Algers abandonment
of the contention that no funds were
available for advertising and by his re-
treat from his original proposition that
no money had been actually appropri
ated for the work, and that, therefore
no money could be expended for con-
struction until further action had been
taken by congress. That ground has all

ANOTHER SUBTERFUGE

The ancient tale to the effect that
Bianther, who, after numbering Mrs.
Langfeldt in San Francisco, committed
suicide in Jail in Texas, confessed to the
murders of Blanche Lamont and Minnie
Williams before he died has been re-
vived and exploded again in the same
breath.
The theory was advanced about year
and a half ago that Blanther was the
murderer instead of Durrant, but it was
quickly abandoned. The main point to
be considered now is that the revival of
the story gives the attorneys for Durrant
another preteXt for delaying the execu-
ton Of their client.
This only increases the disgust with
which the law-abiding public views the
subterfuges and tricks of criminal law.
The herald., 1897-11-25

been gone over before. The act of con-
gress is in the nature Of continuous ap-
preparation. The report of the chief of
engineers. incorporated into the secre-
tary's annual report. speaking Of the
river and harbor appropriations for this
year. says that congress has virtually
pledged itself to provide the amounts for
which requisition is made.
Mr.. Alger sought more advice. He
asked the comptroller Of the treasury
if there is any fund from which the ad-
vertising could be paid. 1t is under
stood that a favorable reply has been
received; but there will be no premature
rejoicing over the result, should the re-
port prove correct. The people now look
to the president, as the executive of the
whole nation, to see that justice is done.
