his right-hand man Joe Wyatt Of Shenan-

in that district. Coyle, however, sees defeat

are like the last kicks of dying mule
Threats, tricks and deception are the main
tactics used in the campaign. Offices are
promised with liberality which is astonish-
ing Defeat follows the course Of the pair
wherever they may go and as this gaunt
spocter becomes more and more apparent the
Senator realizes that his record in office has
been observed by the people.

TWO DOLLARS OR NOTHING

The Herald's Sacramento correspond
ent stirred up the good people of Los An
geles yesterday morning in reporting the
consummation of law which would
prohibit the employment of laborers in
parks or on public works at less than
two dollars day. The inference was
that the good work started at Elysian
park under the auspices of the Mer-
chants and Manufacturers association
would have to be stopped.
A more careful investigation shows,
however, that this surmise is incorrect.
The inhibition applies only to the ex-
penditure of public funds. AS the money
paid to the men at the park is from pri-
vate subscription, nobody can be sent
to Jail for paying it out in one dollar in
stallments. So the good people may
draw a long breath and go on with their
well-doing, which is not yet a crime.
The movement may be handicapped,
however. by strict construction of the
law, which will prevent the conversion
of any public funds into the unemployed
treasury. This will be in the nature of a
hardship to the poor people seeking
work and a Encouragement to the phil
anthropic who are promoting the move
ment.
The new law fixing a minimum of 80
for days labor of eight hours on pub
lie works is in the nature of sumptuary
legislation. and we think the labor or
ganizations have made a mistake in Sc
curing its adoption. The price of labor
generally can no more be esta blished
by statute than can the price of butter
or potatoes. The price of labor on pub
lie works may thus be established it Is
true, but if thS rate be, above the normal
it simply makes a greater rush for pub
lie employment, and strengthens the
hands of "the push" with these sine
cures at their disposal. If wages gener-
ally are to be toned up we must look to
improved Industrial conditions, not TO
clap-tra legislation.

But few incidents are new to the
public. The ''volunteers" have only
quite recently been established here,
and they come under favorable aus
pices. General Williams refusal to speak
from a rostrum decorated with Ameri-
can flags at the time of his visit, about
a year ago, has not been generally
known outside of the army, and has not
been wholly forgotten within the army,

WHY SUCH HASTE?

The board of public works at its ses-
sion yesterday recommended that the
petition of ]. Baldwin and others that
the Los Angeles and Pasadena Railway
company be granted a special privilege,
under the law governing the same, to
commence work on Daily street, East
Los Angeles, be granted. The petition
states that the company is very anxious
to commence work at once, and the
recommendation Is therefore in the ma
ture of an emergency proposition.
This is a matter in which the council
should make haste slowly. When it is
considered that for several years the
holders Of franchises have been leading
the people on Griffin avenue to believs
that they intended to build on that
street, the necessity for precipitate ac-
ton at this time to divert the line else
where is not apparent to the average
citizen. Not only this, but a large dele
cation of East Siders, headed by Judge
Sherman Page, waited on the council
two weeks ago. and asked permission
to be heard before this matter should
be finally settled. They stated that they
did not exactly oppose the DAILY street
road, bu. as the company had of its
own accord elected to build on Griffin
avenue in the first instance, and there
was no question but that that street was
the better of the two for the purpose
being at least twenty feet wider than
Daily street, they were at least entitled
to know the reasons for this change OF
base. This is certainly a reasonable re-
quest and the council should not take
final action in the matter without CIV
ing those in interest full opportunity
to be heard.

and care Of orchards to be sold to future
settlers; the establishment OF small
manufacturing enterprises along the
lines of local necessity; the development
of oil and mineral claims in proper loca-
tions-all these are good fields for in
vestment. But the investment In Wild
cat speculations, whether in mines, or
lots, or land, where 1t is expected to
make a profit of 100 per cent annually
is not more likely to prove satisfactory
here than in the effete east. Those who
listen to the seductive voice of the
.boom" investment siren in Southern
California will find it as difficult to
make a profit as it was Of old to make
"a silk purse out Of a sow's ear" Good
common sense is as necessary for the
conduct of legitimate business in South
ern California as 1t is elsewhere In the
United States, and this fact should not
be overlooked by those who come
among us to make homes.

Mr.. Ballington Booth, the founder of

thing of the spirit of the revolutionary

bond of allegiance to the old army, and
refused either as the son or the subcr-

un n-American and unjust. Here was an
intelligent man who took the oath of
