The Hon. Robert T. Lincoln was

notable achievements in his chosen
walk in life. 1t is not every man,
whatever his parentage, who has sue
ceeded in representing his country
with credit to himself and his govern
ment at the court of st. James, and
the eX minister's subsequent career at
the Chicago bar, If less conspicuous,
has been equally successful. In per-

being rather short and stocky. He
wears his beard in the English style.

AN ASSASSIN DONE FOR

The fiery Mexicans did not wait for
even swift-footed justice to deal with
the wretch who, on the day of celebrat-
ing the national independence, attempt
ed to assassinate their president. They
took the matter into their own hands,
and the riddled body of the would be
assassin bears mute testimony to their
terrible revenge.
The act was unprecedented in the his
tory Of Mexico, but it is not probable
that the lynching habit will become gen.
eral in the republic. The people are
not sufficiently AmericaMzed for that.
The killing of Arrayo was caused by an
Irresistible outburst of passion on the
part of the common people over an at
tempt to murder their president, man
who more than any other is responsible
for the splendid progress of the republic
during the time he has been connected

THE NEW SUGAR FACTORY

| 1t was a suggestive and significant fact
that some 45O business men Of Los An
geles should make the trip to Los Ala
mitos last Thursday for the purpose of
inspecting the new beet sugar factory.
1t was suggestive Of the spirit of enter
prise that animated those business men
through the agency of their organiza
tions, and significant in that 1t displayed
the degree of interest that they have in
Southern California enterprises.
1t was not mere junketing excursion.
Men do not leave their business and
spend hot and dusty afternoon in a
trip Of this kind merely for amusement.
1t was genuine interest in a new and
promising enterprise forming a part of
the business future of this section which
was properly thought worthy Of recog
milton.
1t is not necessary to rehearse here the
history of the Los Alamitos factory.
1t is sufficient to say that although less
than a year has elapsed since it was
built, it has produced 100000 pounds of
refined sugar. 1t is expected that next
year about $500 tons will be produced.
The factory is proving very good thing
for the farmers too, as they receive
about $50 an acre for their beets and the
work of cultivation is comparatively
small
This country as vet produces only
about Is per cent of the sugar it con-
sumes so that there is no danger from
over-production for many years to
come Southern California is the ideal
country for raising sugar beets, and
great future seems to be in store for
the industry here.

TRADE WITH MEXICO

Los Angeles has begun practical
measures to secure share of the large
trade with western Mexico that has
heretofore gone to San Francisco or to
European ports. The steamer Albion is
now in port at San PEDRO, having first
been fitted out to run iia the trade be-
tween that port and Mexico, as far south
as San Benito The steamer will be
operated in connection with the Ter
minal road and the managers of that
line have been active in arranging the
preliminaries.
The opportunity is one that should be
taken advantage Of by the business men
of this city without loss of time. We
have had great deal to say about in
creasing our trade with Mexico, Of late
and now that the chance has come, the
monopoly enjoyed by San Francisco and
European cities ought to soon become a
trading with the United States, as the
figures of their import trade clearly
show They need great many things
that we have to SELL and We need thu
goods of Mexico.
The Albion will soon start on her frs
voyage, and she should be LOADED tC

products.

TELLING THE EAST ABOUT Us

When Colonel Aldace F. Walker,
chairman Of the Santa Fe board Of d.
rectors, was in Southern California a
few weeks ago he urged the Importance
of holding exhibitions of our peculiar
products in the eastern cities. He main
tanned that our chamber Of commerce
exhibit, although a splendid thing and
not to be in the slightest degree abated,
did not fill the whole bill. OF what good,
pointed out Col. Walker, is an exhibit
located in Los Angeles for the purpose
Of educating people in New York, or
Boston or Philadelphia?
The point was we'll taken. The COL
onels suggestion calls for either citrus
fairs or permanent exhibits in the large
cities of the east This fact was en-
pllasized by the statements Of Ger
man buyer, in the northern part of the
state recently. He said that a great
market could be made for our non-per-
ishable products if the people of Ger
many could only be made acquainted
with them. By way Of illustration 1t is
only necessary to cite the immediate
good effects of the California exhibit at
the Hamburg exposition.
People will not buy our products if
they do not know what we have got to
sell, or If they are unacquainted with
their merits. Like the introduction of
l. !, ,;,,~r hot
it is a matter of advertising to get the
people acquainted with them. And in
this case other things are not equal be-
cause our particular products have no
rivals.
Our production is increasing very rap
idly. We must fird a market away from
home. The tariff cannot regulate the
question of demand and supply. OBJ
viously the best way to create demand
where none now exists is by making the
people acquainted with our products,
and the best way to accomplish this is
by arranging for permanent exhibits or
citrus fairs in the large eastern cities.
We have brought great many Ma
hornets to our mountain but there are
occaSsons where the mountain must
make the first call.
These things being conceded, the next
thing is to get to work in the manner
characteristic of Los Angeles and
Southern California. The winter season
Is of course the proper time to make the
exhibits. 1t will take some time to ar
range and carry out the necessary
plans, and the situation calls for imme-
diate action.

THEY SET A GOOD EXAMPLE

Everybody who reads the Pasadena
Star, though rivals, are excellent
friends They occupy the same field and
cover the same ground, for they are both
evening papers, yet they do not bark
and bite nor quarrel and fight. Each
appreciates the others enterprise, and
is willing to testify to it. Their en-
ployes ever play a match game of base
ball and there is no bad feeling over it,
The Herald mentions these things be-
cause such pleasant condition is rare
ly presented in the case of two rival
Exactly the opposite is too often the
state of affairs Just why it should be
so nobody has ever explained satisfac-
torily. Perhaps the facility with which
newspapers can get back" at each
other has great deal to do with it,
At any rate, rival editors, although
each may be the most estimable of gen.
tlemen as an individual, too frequently
assail each other with the utmost fury
in the columns of their papers and charge
all the crimes in the calendar Such
warfare seldom IL ever interests the
public.
Let us hope that the exception set
forth in the admirable example of our
Pasadena contemporaries does not
prove the rule. And whether it does or
not, their example is a good one to fol-

AN INDUSTRIAL QUANDARY

The case Of the miners in Pennsylva-
mia, West Virginia, Ohio and perhaps
others of the eastern states, forms a
phase of the Industrial situation that
may we'll be considered at the present
time. It is the future rather than the
present that presents itself and the ap-
plication lies in the progress of inven-
tion.
The time is fast coming when the use
of coal will be reduced to a minimum.
Other processes for furnishing heat,
light ard power than the consumption
of carbon are rapidly being discovered
and developed. The water power
that has for centuries gone to
waste in running down hill, useless even
in cleansing and irrigatirg the face of
nature, is now being utilized to generate
electric power in immense forces Heat
is being more economically produced
and the same is true of light.
All these things tend to lessen the de-
mand for coal. The power Of production
Is said to be already much larger than
the power of consumption, or, rather.
the demand 1t is estimated that those
engaged in the coal mining industry
could, if worked to their full capacity all
the time, produce three times as much
coal as the country consumes. That es-
innate is made in defense of the coal
operators. 1t is poor defense. The
other facts and conditions considered,
1t does not justify the payment of mere
starvation wages. 1t may not be cor
rect. 1t is given for what it Is worth, as
an illustra ton showing the tendency Of
the times in the business of coal mining

coal mining districts. Once it was not
so. Then the squeezing process began
Soon Americans abandoned coal mining

it. Importations from Europe tooR

lows who thought even the lowered
American wage good thing. But theii
turn came soor. They, too were forced
to quit because they could not support
themselves and their families. Ther

looks as if, right in the midst of oul
boasted civilization such condition:
might produce "the downmost man."
When these "savages" are crowded
