A LOS ANGELES SPECIAL
Herald Issues Big Industrial Number
of One Hundred

Pages
From the New York Editor and Publisher.
Among recent special numbers the
1900, 900 Population Edition" Of the Los
Angeles Herald caps the pinnacle. This
mammoth newspaper consisting or 1OO
pages was issued on Sunday, September
8, and contained enough reading to last
an ordinary person month That the
publication of such an edition was sup
ported by advertisers speaks eloquently
for the industrial prosperity Of its sec
tion. Five years ago The Herald began
the 100000 population" cry. Los An
geles has already passed that figure
hence the reason for adopting the new
1900, 900" slogan.
The Herald is the oldest morning
paper in Los Angeles, having been
established October 2, 1872. Since ii
passed under it's present management
with Frank G. Finlayson president and
Robert M. Yost general manager, II
has made remarkable gains in both Cir
culation and advertising patronage.

NEW CITY HALL PROPOSITION

The first tangible step has been taken in the move
ment looking to new and more commodious city hall
Angeles Property north OF First street
have practically duplicated their profer to the
ment of free site for the federal building Their
present offer II the city is site for public build
ing to house all the city departments. The dimensions
of the plot offered ample for the purpose it ad
joins site of the federal building and is satisfactory
generally except in the matter of location That is the
only ground upon which reasonable objection be
based.
The formal proer to the council of free site for
city hall brings to acute stage the necessity
for structure, without any needless delay.
No citizen questions the urgent need of
modious and modern building for the of the
city departments Nearly all the public Offices work
ing at great disadvantage because of their crowded
quarters Furthermore the city is paying about $4,000
rent money per year for accommodations outside of
city hail. equal to the citys interest rate of
per cent on $250,0O0.
Taking into account the principal the rep
resented by the $4,000 of rent money paid, to-
gether with the market value of the present city hall
property and the value of the site offered beside the
federal building aggregate sum is figured up that
would go far toward giving Los Angeles ideal public
building
AS a member Of the north end committee Of prop
ery says: IF property in other sections
of the city have another and better location to Offer
let them come forward with their proposal" A free
site surely is important consideration and
the precedent by the federal government for the
acceptance of such gift.
The city hall ball has begun to roll; keep it
going until it form in building for the
city departments that will be worthy of Los Angeles.

POLICY AND POLITICS

In the course of recent address Governor Folk Of
Missouri formulated an addition to old and familiar
maxim. He said Honesty is the best policy and also
the best politics." The rendering broadens the
scope Of the maxim and introduces it into compara
lively new field.
There has been a rather widespread notion IN the
United States that the conjunction Of honesty and poll
tics-potcs in the partisan sense-suggests such diff
fcuy is in the attempt to mix oil and
water But popular ideas not apt to accord with
those of statesmen who acquainted with policy and
politics by experience with honesty by observation
In considering Governor Folks addendum to the old
saying find that the gst of it is this 1t pays to be
honest in politics. Honesty Is commended here not
because of its abstract value virtue but because
it yields big political dividends Such dividends depend
the influence brought to bear upon voters, who
are the ladders whereby statesmen Governor Folk for
example ascend the ladder of political fame. The gov
ernors underlying dea evidently, is that good politics
demands such manifestation Of honesty will impress
with the belief that politics and honesty really
are as mixable as gin and sugar.
But does the test Of what may pass for political
honesty up the od-fashoned standard? Posi-
bly, Shakespeare in mind the kind of honesty that
pays" in politics when he wrote Corruption wins not
more than honesty According to that conception 1t
is fairly between honesty and corruption,
at least in the course of politics.
Pure honesty in politics is precious as fine gold
and as ten-arat diamonds But limitations Of 1t
are as common as those "just-asgood' yellow watches
look like gold and sell for the price OF turnip
Governor Folk should have dilated upon his new
tail to the old maxim by indicating the percentage of
alloy in his grade Of political honesty-the kind that
it is good policy" to display before the public.
The idea that semblance of honesty is good card
to play in politics is old probably political his
tory. 1t is idea that is overworked unmerc1fuly
right here in California in Los Angeles, every two
years. When the time TO choose candidates for
public offices the people reminded not only that
"an honest is the nobest work of God" but that
there would be enough such men in Los Angeles will
ing to serve the people if there twenty times the
number of offices to fill.
The American people have had much experience
with political brands of honesty that they detect the
spurious kind now almost readily you distinguish
between a genuine gold watch and the imitation that
sells at the bargain counter for five dollars.
