DANGEROUS POLICEMEN

Have any steps been taken looking
to an investigation Of the case OF Special
Policeman Bayer, who. while not in uni
form, shot down citizen who refused
to halt when called upon to do so? And
if not, will any such steps be taken?
1t is indispensable in the interests of
the public generally to have 1t clearly
determined whether the indiscriminate
use of the revolver by regular or spec
ial policemen, in uniform or not in uni
form, is to be permitted to continue
without rebuke or interference. If II is,
citizens whose business takes them out
at night will have to order either bull
let-proof suit or a coffin. Human life
will not be safe. The highwayman
rarely shoots until he gets into close
quarters; the unintelligent or hotheaded
policeman shoots on the slightest provo
cation, and then retires beneath the
cloak of the law.
The man Bertrand, who was shot by
Bayer, claims to be an honest. hard
working citizen, who has no need to
steal whiffietrees. And If there was rea-
son to suppose that he had stolen them
neither regular nor a special officer had
any right to shoot the man down on the
strength Of it.
The Herald hopes that the case Of OFF,
Ger Bayer will be carefully Investigated
by the police commission, and that the
indiscriminate use of firearms will BE-
sternly discouraged by the board.

leave the assembly room ON the specious
Rea that the newspapers had made a
mistake In publishing the notices. 1t
was only the Los Angeles end of the
committee that was to meet, and its
business was 50 private and special that
Pasadena members were not wanted
This very singular and very brusque
proceeding certainly skaters the entente
cordiale that was established when the
Pasadena representatives came here on
special invitation and coalesced with
the Los Angeles committee. Hence
forward We may look for no harmonious
joint action. 1t will be a catch-as-ca tch-
can controversy, with elimination and
recrimination on both sides.
II Los Angeles and Pasadena get to
pulling at cross purposes-if there is to
be an implacable feud between the
Arroyo Seco ard the Mission road
schemes-if Downey avenue tries to take
advantage of the melee and grab a little
boulevard of her own-then shall we
have a monkey and-parrot time of 1t

be some fun for the on-lookers. Let the.

large expense. The San Francisco plan
should be Investigated with especial ref
erence as to whether it will fill the needs
Of this particular section.
In the same category with the pro-
posed California exhibit in New York
city is the proposition to hold series of
carnivals in Southern California next
winter and spring. The plan Is to be-
gin with a water carnival at San Diego,
and follow it up with flower festival
at Santa Barbara, citrus fair at River
side and perhaps with festivals in other
places, winding up the whole with La
Fiesta at Los Angeles. The advantages
of such a comprehensive series Of festi-
walls are obvious.
Colorado does something Of that sort
each year, although each festival is en-
tirely independent of the others. The
fun begins with the flower festival at
Colorado Springs in August, and is fol-
lowed with watermelon day at Rocky
Ford peach day at Grand Junction,
fruit day at Canon City, potato day at
Greeley, the street fair at Loveland, the
season finishing in early October at
Denver with three days FESTIVAL of
Mountain and Plain"
The plan of holding festivals at dif-
ferent points in Southern California will
do away with much Of the opposition
that has been manifested by the state
press toward the Fiesta. 1t will give
greater variety, divide up the visiting
and give the people better chance to
become acquainted with each other. 1t

PRIZEFIGHTERS IN POLITICS

1t appears to be one Of the signs Of the
times that the pugilists are going into
politics. The Hon. John Lawrence Sui
livan is running for mayor of Boston
on a platform Of free prize fights, free
beer and free street cars for poor wo-
men to ride in It was only this week
that the subtle electric current brought
the news that the Hon. Robert Fitzsim-
mons, knight of the solar plexus, late
of Australia and Carson City, would
take the stump in behalf of his particu
lar friend, William v. Malloy, Repub-
lican candidate for mayor of West
chester county, New York. The Hon.
James John Corbett has not been heard
from, but the baseball season is not over
He may yet take up the gentle game Of
politics as a vocation.
1t may readily be imagined that Mr..
Fitzsimmon.s will find few to reply to
twenty-four-foot ring for a stump there
are not many spellbinders who will care
to dispute its occupancy with this newly
fledged American citizen. His friend
Malloy ought to win out in one round
Then, perhaps, Mr.. Fitzsimmons may
acquire the proud right to wear deputy
sheriff's badge.
Mr.. Sullivan and Mr.. Fitzsimmons are
not alone in leaving the prize ring for
the political ring. There was the Hon.
John Morrissey, the conqueror of John c
Heenan, who afterward represented a
New York city district in congress. That,
however, was more than a generation
ago, and Mr.. Morrssey therefore never
met Mr.. Tom Reed. If he had it is a
question whether Mr.. Morrissey would
have been counted in by the speaker s
famous method, or whether Mr.. Reed
would have been counted out by MI
Morrissey's favorite sockdolager. 1t is.
however, immaterial at this time.

HOW TO FIGHT FIRE

The way to put out fire Is to turn In
a fire alarm. This might seem to be an
unnecessary tatement, but it IL called
for according to Fire Chief Moore. At
the last regular meeting Of the board of
fire commissioners Chief Moore said
that many persons upon discovering a
fire tried to extinguish it themselves, in
stead of turning in an alarm, calling
the department only when the blaze got
beyond their control. Several serious
fires, he added, have occurred recently
at which the loss would have been nom
inal had an alarm been turned in
promptly.
First turn in the alarm and then go
back and fight the fire. That is the safest
rule to follow, according to the chief,
and he ought to know. Still 1t might not
be amiss to stamp out a little blaze if
ones foot will cover it.

CALIFORNIA OPINION
California Will Lead

California bids fair to become one Of
the greatest sugar producing states in
the world. There are now represent tatives
of nearly dozen big eastern and foreign
syndicates in California looking for land
for the production of sugar beets and for
the erection of sugar beet factories 1t
is claimed that the soil of many portions
of this state is especially adapted to the
production Of sugar beets of higher
percentage of sugar than any other coun-
try, giving increased value to the pro-
duct. The early season in which the
beet natures in this state also figures
as an important factor, as it enables the
sugar manufacturer to place his product
on the market some time before the sugar
cane raiser can harvest his crop.-San
Jose Mercury.

EXHIBITS AND CARNIVALS

A dispatch from San Francisco says
that the leading hotel men Of this state
have perfected plan for maintaining
in New York city an attractive exhibit
of all manner of products of the soil and
factory of California. The details are
not at hand, but if the leading hotel men
of California are behind the scheme, it
will no doubt be well carried out, as to
both plan and detail.
Some s4O0 morth has been guaran-
teed for two years; but that is not
enough to maintain a representative
California display, and 1t is proposed to
double the amount. Every possible as
sistance ought to be rendered those who
have the matter in hand.
1t might be that distinctive Southern
California display would be preferable.
but that would entail an additional
