HINT FOR SISTER CITIES

In the various newspapers published in cities and
towns of Southern California find frequent illusions
to special schemes for advertising the attractions of
such communities in magazines and other outside pub
caons For instance plan for advertising the three
cities of Redands Riverside and San Bernardno in
magazine is under consideration. good deal of
money involved in the proposition but the attering
inducement is offered that the magazine will reach the
hands of thousands of eastern people, who may be in
duced to migrate quest of the auring promises por
trayed and described
The familiar maxim at pays to advertise a good
thing" is incomplete 1t should be supplemented with
the word "judicously" If money is object in ad
vertisng then shovel it out to every proposition that
comes along There is doubt that such policy will
bring harvest of returns advertisers have
King Soomons mines the single mine of the Croesus
of Death valley with which to pay for advertising ad
bitum and old advertisers have learned by experience
the folly of putting their advertising money where it
will do the least good.
Ask ten newly arrived homeseekers what led them to
consider migrating to Southern California. 1t is good
guess that least half of them influenced by
safe guess anyway, that such newspapers find
in inducing migration than all the special magazine and
kindred stuff for which much money is paid.
Eastern people know as Southern Californians
tanly ought to know that there is other index of
community approaching accuracy the local newspaper
or papers. The newspaper of town is miniature of
the itself That is fact well understood by large
advertisers who cover the whole American field
The investment that the cities and of this
section make in advertising abroad is by liberal and
systematic spreading of their home newspapers among
eastern people.

REFUSES TO TRANSFER PLAT
Change Strip on Piedmont
Avenue

"Take twenty feet off Piedmont ave-
nue. and add it to our property" was
the request implied in a petition which
the board of public works refused to
grant yesterday afternoon.
The petition was headed by J. w.
Hellman, vice president of the Union
Trust company, and asked that twenty
feet be taken from the south side of
Piedmont avenue, between Avenue 58
and Pasadena avenue, and the land
added to little strip on the south side
of Piedmont avenue that is too narrow
for practical use. The street is so feet
wide and the petitioners suggested that
if the city give them this ground it
would hardly be missed from the street.
There were numerous protests against
such action.

THE Way OF THE TRANSGRESSoR

The conviction of Emmons, senatorial boodler NO 2
striking victory for civic virtue in California 1t
surely foreshadows like fate for the two cuprits yet
to be tried. Far important than the punishment
of the four individuals, however, is the stern notice
practically served upon all official derects that Gall
forna stands firmly for justice and civic righteousness
The four dsgraced senators deserve not the least
sympathy from any citizen of California Every one or
them is of intelligence, having full knowledge OF
official legislative obligations and quite familiar with
the legal penalties for official wrongdong There Is
mitigating circumstance in the case OF any one
of them. The crime which each committed was delb-
crate and premeditaed There was full knowledge OF
its enormty and of the legal penalty involved And,
considering these facts it seems ncomprehensibe now
sane men, in such exalted stations could thus debase
themselves
The infamous character Of the crime in question is
only made more impressive by such dramatic episode
as one witnessed when the Emmons verdict was an
nounced 1t was pitiable spectacle, that Of the utterly
crushed wife with her child that barely old enough
TO comprehend what it all meant. 1t was cruel olow
that husband had caused fall upon the woman whom
ii was his paramount duty to protect 1t was blow,
too that will leave indeibe mark upon the memory
of the child recalling to the last day OF her lie the
in that courtroom.
But sentiment has no proper place by the side OF
Justice The man who medates upon the commission
of a crime avoid consideration OF his family,
particularly honored by seat in the California
Justice demands that the full measure OF pun
shment be meted in of the senatorial culprits
And there is absolutely nothing to offer in extenua-
ton of the crime the punishment should be exemplary,
as warning to other officials with flexible consciences
The Sacramento court jury and prosecuting attorneys
be commended for doing their duty in thus
vindcating the majesty of the law and the honor of
California The spectacle of the four Doodle exsenators
wearing state prison stripes will have wholesome de-
terrent effect upon all unfathful public stewards.
In the general satisfaction of Caifornans concerning
the successful prosecution of the senatorial booders the
fact should sight of that credit therefor is
due largely the district attorney of Sacramento county
it seemed like stdpendous task that Mr. Seymour I'M
dertook the effort to bring to judgment four state
senators, presumably backed by powerful influences
But in the face of all obstacles he pushed the
ton resoluely and successfully winning the praise of
all close observers of the and deserving the thanks
of every honest citizen of California
