HIS QUEST FOR MORE

The charge made by The Herald that
H. w. Patton has been d Democrat for
revenue only for many years is abund =
antly sustained by a review Of the rec
ord.
Nobody can point to valuable service
that he has ever rendered to the party.
On the contrary he has consorted and
co-operated in political schemes with
the Doodle element of the Republican
party and the railroad push. His whole
career has been such as to bring con-
tumely upon the Democratic party.
AT the same time he has been suffi-
ciently active and "schemy" to rake
in some of the best chestnuts to be found
Beginning with the semi political posi-
tion of mayors clerk he acquitted him
self in such a manner as to win the ever
lasting disesteem of the man under
whom he served. If anybody is in doubt
on this subject let him ask that old
Democratic war horse, ex-Mayor Work
man about it. and get the inner history
of Patton and the Cuddy gang"

INTERNATIONAL GALLERY
PLAY

1t seems to us altogether likely that
the determination of the Spanish gov
ernment to send one of its largest battle
ships to New York is in line with the OBJ
vious purpose of the two administra-
tions, acting in concert to manufacture
political capital for use in both countries
and to gain time, in the hope that the in
surrection will collapse and the neces-
sity for intervention be thus averted.
The notification of the Madrid author
tiles by our minister there of the sailing
of the Maine for the harbor of Havana
was altogether an unnecessary cour-
tesy, if the object was, in fact, as ex-
planned by our secretary of the navy,
simply a renewal, without other signifi-
canee. of the friendly relations that
have always existed between the two
countries; nor is it probable that the
Sagasta ministry would have so pre-
cpitately directed that a Spanish war
vessel be sent to New York, as an an
swer to the notification, had there not
been an understanding between it and
Minister Woodford.
The several incidents, viewed in the
light of the known relations existing be-.
tween the governments at Madrid and
Washington, look like a huge interna-
tional gallery play, intended to satisfy
the Tory extremists in Spain, stimulate
the seaboard apprehensions of a foreign
war, and incidentally justify the con-
ciliatory policy of the Mckinley admin
istration.
The complacency of Minister Wood
ford on the one side and of Secretary
Long on the other, in view of an act
which ordinarily would be regarded as
hostile, gives away the snap. Like all
other recent moves. this is unquestion- |
ably inspired by the necessity for de- |
laying action upon the part of the
American congress.

Merely a Theory

To the Editor of the Los Angeles Herald
Can it be possible that the water COM
pany, or somebody representing that cor
poration, has seen the parties who are
now pretending to fight the company SO
fiercely but who in reality may be play
ing into the companY's hands?
OF course, the honorable directors would
not think of attacking the frail virtue
of anybody-heaven forbid. But if by any
strain of the imagination We could sup
poso that they would actually do such a
thing, what would be more natural than
for them to talk tof course, coniidentially)
in this wise: Nov boys. there is some
thing in this for you if you are discreet
but in order to divert attention and throw
dust in the eyes of the people you must
make believe that you are rabidly hos
Tile to us; in fact, you must at
tack us with the utmost ferocity, while
attack us with the utmost ferocity, while
at the same time you must pretend that
you are the only friends the people have,
that they can depend upon" Would not
this account for the extreme rancor with
which certain parties are now attacking
the city water company?

ONE KIND OF BIMETALLIsM

Senator Teller made a point in the
course of the debate on the Matthews
resolution in the senate Tuesday. that

cause they could not answer it,
Mr.. Allison was obliged to admit that
he thought it would be proper for the
secretary of the treasury to pay the OBJ
legations Of the government in either
secretary of the treasury must take into
consideration the existing conditions.
one of which is that the government is
pledged to maintain the gold and silver
currency of the country at a parity"
Mr., Teller was entirely equal to the oc-
casion. Said he:
The silver dollar which the gentle
man from Iowa (AIr Allison) says Is not
as good as the gold dollar is paid to the
mechanic and laborer in liquidation Of
obligations incurred with them, and /
hold that the bond purchaser is no bet
ter than the man with the bhstered
hands, and ought TO be paid in the
same money
That is the condition which the money
power is trying to force on the people of
this country. They are willing that the
Workingmen should be paid in silver but
nothing but gold will do for them. That
is the kind of bimetallsm favored by the
sound money" advocates.

WEBB'S WHITEWASH

push" pull and pelf and pander
Have won their victory vile,
Another shameful SANDER
Is writ in words of guile;
The Iron hand" acquitted
Webb grins in guilty glee-
His innocence admitted,
Truth bartered for fee.
How Mathis sold his manhood
And Poor his name well earned,
How tottering McInerny
Toward the boodlers turned
How Bartlett took the pleasure
To second" Webb's release,
From these men take the measure
OF scandal without cease.
The injured little children
May never know the shame,
But parents in their anger
Will live to curse the name
OF Webb the boss of Doodle,
And all his craven crew.
Who flched the school boards honor
And infants prospects slew.
"Victory" will you call It,
The verdict of the ring?
Webb's victory is the crowning.
Once more is Doodle king.

A Principle Was Involved

Once upon a time, not many moons ago,
the Los Angeles Herald had an editorial
on the beauties of brotherly love in jour
nalism and pointed TO Pasadena editors as
an example. a pebble having stirred the
placid Pasadena papers pond The Herald
read US a strong lecture, as father would
his son. Now, The Herald and Capital
editors are at it with $50, COO libel suit, sharp
words and daggers of thought. What is
the matter with all these editors, any how,
that they quarrel that way? What shall we
say to The Herald since our paternal ad-
vlce-giver has gone and done the same
thing he scolded us for?-Pasadena News.

A Correction

To the Editor of the Los Angeles Herald:
see the Republican and some Demo-
cratic newspapers still cling to the mis-
quoted language of the Chicago platform
Of 1864 of the Democratic national con-
Nention, notably so as appears in the
Times Of this morning, in asserting that
the Democratic platform used the Ian
guage that the war was a failure" As a
Mcclellan elector having recourse to the
platform in "A number OF speeches, / think
read it, Was a failure for a recon-
struction of the union under the constitu-
ticn,' which was then true and true now
Many persons would be pleased to hear
from you on the point. Respectfully.

McInerny.

Directors Davis, Conrey and Braly
voted in the negative. and Director Ku-
bach, who came in after the investiga-
tion began and has taken no part in it,
was not present.
BY this action Webb is restored to his
full status on the board. He probably
regards the contemplate whitewash as
a vindicaton.
However, the public, who have fol-
lowed this matter closely through all its
devious ways, will not be convinced
against their will but hold the same
opinion still.
The men who voted to exculpate Webb
will simply be listed in the public mind
as accessories after the fact Their
public careers in this community are
forever blasted. An injury has been
done the public school system of Los
Angeles from which it will not recover
even with the passing out of the present
dishonored board. If the people of Los
Angeles could take another vote on the
men who have perpetrated this outrage
the verdict would be far more decisive
than was the lack of confidence" ex-
pressed on the school board proposition.
Instead of Solid Six to dominate the
school department as before, we shall
now have a Solid Five equally insoent
and domineering, though it is to be
hoped not equally mischievous, for the
calcium light of public suspicion and in
dignation will be turned on their every
act.

The Loud bill for the erection in
Southern California of a signal station
to warn fruit growers of approaching
FROST seems to be long step in the right
direction. Since several successful de-
vices have been discovered to protect
growing fruit from the withering eff
fects of premature frosts, the multipn-
cation of warnings cannot but prove
helpful. And a good way to insure
the passage of the Loud bill is for indi-

A DISGRACEFUL ENDING

At meeting of the board of education
last evening the infamy of whitewashins
Webb, the boss of the Solid Six, was
consummated This without allowing
a review of the evidence taken or argu-
ments thereon by the attorneys who had
conducted the investigation. A motion
to dismiss the charge pending against
Webb was made by Poor, and after
wards, at the suggestion of Webb's at
torney, was corrected to include both
charges.
These charges were. first. that Webb
received $50 of blackmail collected by
Axtell from Janitor Cooper, and, second.
that he received 500 of blackmail col
lected from Janitor Morris.
1t will be remembered that there was
direct evidence before the board that
both of these sums had been paid to
Webb and there was strong collateral
evidence to substantiate the charges.
These charges, on motion of Poor
were dismissed without review or argu-
ment.
