stand. He denied the statement made
by Hooley that the latter had paid him

to Hooley.
During the testimony Hooley became
greatly excited, and upon one occasion

Vote For The Charter

To the Editor of the Los Angeles Herald:
I he new charter, which the voters OF Los
Angeles are about to either adopt or reject,
may not be perfect organic law. 1t would
be a most remarkable instrument if it were
entirely free from imperfections. But as
understand it, the new charter as whole
is so much superior to the present one that
it ought to be adopted without any hesta-
tion.
Among the numerous objections urged
against the proposed new charter, those
most frequently used, l believe, are the in
creased powers with which the mayor will
be clothed, and the absence OF any provision
generally called the imperative mandate y
As to the first objection, it may be said that
the mayor will be all the more likely to
prove the fright man in the right place il
it is known before his election that he will
be something more than a hgurehead in
the city government and be compelled to
face grave responsibilities as the city's
chief executive That fact will put all
classes of voters on their good behavior, Sc
to speak, and they will be likely to select
the hest man obtainable for the position, re-
gardless OF partisan politics, for municipal
government is really business, not politics.
AS to the imperative mandate it is
comparatively easy for a community like
this to let its officials know what is wanted
and what is not wanted, without any special
provisions other than what the new charter
provides. That objection is certainly not
vital one, nor are all the objections raised
sufficient to justify the rejection of the pro-
posed organic law, which has been carefully
prepared by thirteen of our most competent
citizens irrespective of party.
/ believe the state of California has out
grown its present constitution and should
have a new one. am very sure that the
city Of Los Angeles needs new charter, and
now is the time to adopt as good charter
as the city is likely to have offered it within
the ensuing twenty years. Let us adopt it
by an overwhelming vote.

The Negro Wants an Opportunity

To the Editor of The Los Angeles Herald;
An opportunity nipped in the qua is so,ie-
thing saved, but when lost 1t Is as spoken
word, or spent arrow, gone, never W
turn. The past life of the old negro Is
such, but the latter-day negro wants an OPP
portunity, which is the stepping stone 10
treasure-house of wealth and knowledge.
Is the negro politician! just to an extent
but not an intelligent one. why! because
he has been deprived OF political growth
in his early age on account OF slavery. ie.
his ambition is higher, ii he can get an op-
portunity to improve himself. Ihe negro
is not inferior intellectually tie Is as ca
pable as others, which has been proven.
Then open the doors-let him in, and he Will
take care of himself =.
| The negro wants freedom OF brain as well
as of body. You can educate your sons
and daughters to the highest. GIVE them
no occupation to cultivate the brain, and 1t
will be of no use to them. So the dlsad-
vantage of the ballot has been to the negro
in this land of his nativity, since eighteen
hundred and sixty-five.
The negro should and must learn to vote
and sustain the interest of those who Will
help him and give him an opportunity to
improve. regardless of party. Vote, but
for tie man that will help your race. 1t is
not the curbstone or night owl politician
that intends good or does us good. He only
wants some interest in the campaign funds,
which is the height of his ambition. We
as race, should use discretion at the bal
lot box. Vote for the educated, the hon
est and most competent men who are able
to look out to the best of their ability for
the welfare of the people, regardless OF race
or color.
The negro will never be politician until
he learns to use policy in his politics. Pol
lev is everything. Give the negro an op
portunity and he will work and prove him,
self in casting his vote. Be wise; it is not
the mayor alone; but choose good coun'
cilmen. who govern the city. Whether he
be a Democrat or Republican, let him be
competent. Z. I. ADAMS.

: new EMPIRE ACQUIRED
BY THE UNITED STATES
xA%%%%%%%%%+<<<<<<<+i

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2S.-The new em-
pire acquired by the American republic IN
the war with Spain is vast in area, rich IN
resources and teens with populations oil
many kinds. OF this empire there is one
part very important to the United states
in many ways. That is the Philippine
Islands. Today Spain surrendered to the
United States all her possessions IN Amer
lea and all but an insignificant fraction OF
her possessions in the east. By this sur
render the kingdom has been practically
bereft of colonies. And these colonies, with
all their tropical wealth and splendor, have
been added to the national wealth OF the
United States, or, to speak more accurately,
serve to establish the first colonies of Amer
lea. In the opinion Of most wise men now
in the capital the people of the United
States are now entering upon new exper-
iment Their first experiment was that OF
a modern republic; their second and last
is that of American colonies. If they sue
ceed as the wise ones think they will, in
the last as brilliantly as they have sue
ceeded in the first there will be no cause
for complaint from any quarter. what fol-

concerned, belongs to us as much as any

Government of the Colonies

Before civil government in our dependen
cies can be an assured success we must make
civil service in them almost as attractive as
naval and military service. There is moth
ing to keep us from making civil service in
the Philippines or Porto Rico a career which
will attract many able men. To do this we
must make the service permanent, we must
guarantee that ability and integrity will
never be disregarded in favor of the mar
with pull, and we must spend time and
money in training men for kind of work
which Americans have not hitherto been
called upon to do.-Milwaullee Sentinel.

Forest Preservation in Bob hemia

After the many centuries during which the
forests OF Bohemia have furnished fuel and
building material for dense population, it
is said that they retain nearly their primeval
area. This is due to the forethought of the
government in ordaining that as trees are
cut down others shall be planted to fill the
vacancies. The wood is mostly pine. Trees
are constantly being cut, but wherever
clearing is made small trees are planted the
next spring. These new trees are raised
from the seed in small Enclosures scattered
in the mountains and are thence trans
planted.
