TWAS not very late, and Captain Ruth
erford was able to telegraph at once.
Then he went to Lady Walls house. and,
happily finding her in, got her promise
to see Molly the first thing in the morn
ing.
1t was a bright face that Lady Val
presented the next morning in Molly's
bedchamber.
'My dear" she said. putting her arms
round Molly's neck at once. Il know you
don't much like me; but you must put
up with me and let me help you if can.
Charlie Rutherford came to me last
night
Molly resisted for 4 moment, but WON
any affection was very sweet to her. and
there was something in Lady Walls face
and manner which compelled confidence
She let herself be kissed and then burst
into tears on her visitors shoulder.
Don't cry, child,' said Lady Val at
last. You had much better so home
and take care of yourself. Or-will you

my dear; and | don't call even BERTHE a

The eyes of the two women met. There
was a little silence, and then Molly held
ont her hand. Il was unjust to you in
my thoughts; forgive me-" she said.
"What did you think of me-

THE TREE HARBOR LEAGUE
TO ACT

"A special meeting of the Free Harbor
league has been called for next Wednes-
day at $3.50 p. m. at the chamber of COM
mcrce to take such action as present eXi-
gencies demand. There is no doubt that
the league Will adopt vigorous meas
ures to place the situation as regards
San Pedro harbor before the admins
tration and overcome, if possible, Sec
retary Alger's contemplate shilly-shal
lying policy. After the line of action
shall have been designated it would not
be bad idea for other public bodies to
express themselves on the subject, and
the campaign may be rounded out by a
mass meeting, as suggested in yester-
days Herald. We must be up and doing

MACHIAVELIAN ALGER
General Alger continues to fabricat

General Alger continues to fabricate
excuses for his unwarrantable delay in
advertising for bids for the work on San
Pedro harbor. a special dispatch to
The Herald from Washington, published
in this mornings issue, reveals more
meandering Quibbles of his Machiavel-
ian mind.
Action must be taken, and promptly.
The Free Harbor league has a strong
arm, and it must be raised to tear to
shrcds the preposterous pretenses by
which the secretary of war has imagined
he could fool Southern California. There
is plenty of work to do. The ques-
tion is not simply of supreme local i'm
portance, but, since the law has been
tri1led with, has become of national
gravity. Every section of the country
should know the truth, which, when
realized, will raise such storm of in
dignation that General Alger may pray
even for the port of San Pedro.
The herald., 1897-11-22
THE PARTY IS RESPONSIBLE

Some time ago The Herald asserted
that the Republican party must be held
responsible for the outrageous misuse
of official authority on the part of Sec
retary Alger in connection with San
Pedro harbor. A few of our Republican
contemporaries We're then inclined to
scold at this contention. They asserted
that The Herald was simply attempting
to create political capital, and that we
were not giving the secretary of war Il
fair chance. 1t was absurd, they said,
to connect the administration as a whole,
to say nothing Of the Republican party,
with the matter at all.
That was nearly six months ago Last
week Secretary Alger declared, in posi-
tive terms, that he would not advertise
for the harbor bids until congress should
make especial provision for the money
necessary to pay the bills for advertis-
ing. 1t is not necessary to explain AL
gers miserable subterfuge Everybody
with knowledge OF the facts realizes
that the secretary is delaying the con-
struction of the harbor in the interest of
his friend, G. +. Huntington, and not
upon any honest. substantial considera-
tion.
It Is generally understood that Mr..
Huntington IS one of the most liberal
contributors to the campaign funds of
the Republican party, which is there
fore under deep obligations to him.
Mr.. Algcr. by his shameful policy of
delay. honors the sight draft Of Mir.

The Law Of Progress

Association in equality is the law Of
progress. Association frees mental pow

equality Cor justice or freedom, for the
terms here mean the same thing-thc
recognition Of the moral law), prevents
the dissipation Of power in fruitless
struggles. Here is the law Of progress
which explains oil diversities. all ad-
vanccs. all halts, all retrogresions. Men
tend to progress just as they come closer
together and by cooperation with each
other increase the mental power which
may be devoted to improvement. But
Just as conflict is provoked or associa-
ton develops inequality Of condition.
this tendency to progression is lessened.

Georges Progress and Poverty"
The herald., 1897-11-22

Huntington upon the administration at
Washington. The Republican party
thus tramples upon the interests OF the
people in order to pay its political debts
1t Is idle and untrue to say that the
president is unacquaiated with the
merits of the harbor case. There is
ample evidence to show that Mr.. Nc
Kinley not only understands the situa-
tion, but that he endorsed. if he did not
order, the postponement of the case until
congress and the Huntingtonian lobby
are reassembled in Washington.

FOREIGN IMMIGRATION

There is a bill in each branch of con-
gress relating to immigration. Congress
will be guilty of dereliction of duty if
it does not enact some law more re-.
strictive than that which now exists
Public sentiment demands that there
shall be such regulation and restriction
of foreign immigration as will keep out
all undesirable persons.
During the last ten or fifteen years
involuntary idleness has prevailed AMI
at times to an extent that has severely
taxed public and private charities. 1t
is certain that there is no need for the
addition of cheap foreign laborers 20
our industrial forces. The belief is wide
ly entertained that in large measure
the disorders which have occurred We're
due to immigration of vicious persons,
Gated facts. Our population is large and
from natural accretion the increase is
nearly or quite equal to that of an av-
erage nation.
In the early part of our history there
was universal demand for more people
to occupy our broad domain and to help
develop the resources of the country
For many years immigrants scattered
over the land, and comminglcd with the
native born. They acquired homes
learned the language and adopted the
habits of the country, and rapidly be-
came assimilatcd to American ideas:
but since great cities have arisen there
has been tendency for immigrants t.
concentrate in large bodies, and conse-
quently fewer of them have acquired
homes, and assimilation has been
slower.
The people of this country during the
first half century of our national en-
istence had no conception of the rapid
ity with which our population would
grow and the country be filled up. They
did not suppose that we would need
more room for centuries. In a little
more than hundred years our popula-
ton has increased from 100000 to 49,
100000, and at the recent rate of growth
it will soon be 100000.
During three-Quarters of a century
immigrants on the average were of Il
higher character than these who have
come within the last twenty-nv years.
The reason for it is the practice of some
Of our corporations in sending abroad
