the lives of two more surf bathers
yesterday afternoon-Hjalmar Sund-
berg, aged seventeen, and Elmer
Bloom, aged seventeen. A third, Will
liam Bloom, father of Elmer, was res
cued after long delay by a gasoline
launch. Had the launch arrived three
minutes later the elder Blooom would
have persisted by the same waters that
took the life of the son.
Yesterdays double tragedy brings
the total number of surf bathers
drowned in the Long Beach undertow
up to nine i'll the last three years. Most,
if not all, of these unfortunates were
the victims as much of the lack of
life-saving precautions at Long Beach
as of the dangerous undertow that ex-
lists there.
OF the hundreds of persons who wit
messed the drowning OF the boys and
the delayed rescue of the father of one
of them, few abstanied from expressing
aloud their Indignation at the lack of
protection on this portion of the beach.
1t was distressingly apparent to all of
the watchers on shore that the lives
of the two youths need not have been
sacrificed had there been at hand an
expert and fearless swimmer in the
character of beach patrol, or had there
been available the means of life-saving
commonly employed at the large beach.

The Herald then details at length the
story of the drowning. Commenting
editorially upon the facts, that paper
caustical1y remarks:
Another sad drowning tragedy at
Long Beach emphasizes the pressing
need for better protection to human life
at that popular resort. Two lives lost
and IL third barely saved is yesterdays
sorrowful record. Again the scene was
at Tent City" just west of Long
Beach proper, where the tragedy of two
weeks ago occurred, and where most OF
Long Beach'S drowning accidents have
occurred.

ton. They We're utterly useless yes

under competent direction. A launch

ness. particularly on days when the
beaches are crowded. These are lnerely
suggestions. Action cannot come toe
soon.
We trust that the esteemed Times
will forget its hostility to the Herald
long enough to lend its powerful infiu-
ence of a reform at Long Beach.

PHOENIX, ARIZONA, JULY Is, 1902.

A few days ago the Los Angeles
Times, in a clumsy attempt to be witty,
tried to have some

LONG BEACH lican on account of
TRAGEDY. h e criticisms ex-
pressed by this paper
in reference to the lack of life-saving
measures at Long Beach. The fire.
quent loss OF life at that beach may be
a proper subject for levity, in the es-
timation of the esteemed Times, but
those who have lost friends or relatives
in the Long Beach surf because of the
negligence of the local authorities,
might consider the subject somewhat
lacking in funny features.
Long Beach is one of Arizona's ia
vorite watering places. Especially is
it generously patronized by the people
of Phoenix, hundreds of whom spend
the summer there. 1t is one of the
most beautiful towns in California, its
citizens are of the very best class, the
climate is perfection the year through,
and the beach is not surpassed on
either coast. But, as heretofore point
ed out in these columns, the surf fire.
quently runs high, with a dangerous
undertow, and there are practically no
precautions for guarding the lives Of
bathers-a matter which does not fall
short of criminal negligence. The trou-
BILE seems to be that the people of Long
Beach do not realize that their town
has grown quickly from an insignifi-
cant village to metropolitan proper
tions. The visitors number thousands
daily. 1t appears to be difficult for the
residents to shake off their, village
body deplores it more than they do,
and no rural community could be more
sympathetic-but they neglect to pro-
vide against further losses of life. AS
cited before, the village cast of mind
prevails too much-there is a sad lack
CT perception as to the relative import
ance OF things; and, as stated for illus
tration, it is literally true that a vio-
lation of the local prohibitory law is
deemed of greater consequence than
the death of a bather in the surf-i1
the local reports in the Los Angeles pa
pers are to be taken as correct, an6
If the town is to be judged by its per-
eistent failure to provide means fo
protecting people in the surf.
We return to the subject again, be-
cause Arizona has a strong interest
in the question, and the death of tw,
more people in the breakers last Sun
day emphasizes the justice Of the COM
ments to which the Los Angeles Times
took exception.
Concerning this latest tragedy, the
Los Angeles Herald, which takes a
cOmmendable view of the gravity OF
the situation, says.

Balfour, to that great post were car

world will not fail to note that the last

men of the Victorian era has passed
from public view. A contemporary of
Bismarck, Gambetta, Crispi, Andrassy

manned to conduct the affairs of the
British empire long after these great
figures had surrendered the guiding
reins of their respective governments
to other hands. And if Balfour is not q
great statesman, it can be said that
Germany, France, Austria, Italy and
Russia are in the hands of ministers of
mediocre ability.
Salisbury is the last colossal figure
of the last quarter of the nineteenth
century, and the last great representa-
tive of the Great Britain of yesterday.

and Gladstone, he stood for the con-

Il find that the live coral is found
