HEARST AIDS ROOSEVELT.

William r Hearst through his
powerful array of newspapers. is do
ing all that is possible TO assist Pres
ident Roosevelt in bringing order and
Justice out Of the chaos and disorder
OF the present railroad rate schedules.
The following ringing editorial
from the san Francisco Examiner. is
characteristic of the effort of the
Hearst papers:
Theodore Roosevelt made a brave
stand for the right and for the peo-
pie when ne denounced the robbery
and infamy of railroad rates and Sc
cret rates and urged legislation in
creasing the powers of the interstate
commerce commission.
The president was specific in his
recommendation. He asked that re-
batting. rate-cutting. private car mo-
nopoly and terminal line robbery be
stopped and that the interstate com
merce commission be given the pow
er to revise rates and regulations. the
revised rates to go into effect at once
and 10 stay in effect unless and until
the court of review reverses it
In all this President Roosevelt was
in advance of mis- party, He was
moved by no platform declarations,
and in his effort he mas not had the
support of the republican majority
in congress.
But the president knows the pro-
ducer and the consumer pay the
freight. and he knows they are being
robbed, and it is good for the people
that he was brave enough TO make a
stand for them.
The presidents position on this rate
question is a tribute to his courage
and 10 his patriotism
He took up the views of the honest
and progressive democracy. and when
he adopted them the majority of the
democratic minority seemed willing
and glad to surrender their views to
him
A year ago the Hearst bill. regulat-
ing railroads. was introduced, and in
his recommendation the president
adopted its main features.
The Hearst bill marked the begin
ming Of the present agitation for re-
lief
The democrats in convention in st.
Louis made specific declarations for
the control Of railroads.
The minority in congress. as a dem
ocratic xody seems to be content with
the profession of the St Louis plat
form and eager to forget it when the
time comes for action. Democratic
measures for relief from railroad
extortion were sidetracked and a re-
publican president took up the issue
they tried to ignore.
The democratic platform demand
ed full and adequate relief for the
people from railroad extortion- The
republican platform said nothing.
Roosevelt. as president OF the whole
people, struck the main issue and put

His Definition of the Most Perfect
Form of Government.

"What is the most perfect form of
governments was once propounded
at the court of Fernandez. king Of Cor
NTH. one of the seven wise men OF
Greece His six fellows were present,
and of them Bias answered first civ
ing as his opinion, "Where the laws
have no superior" Thales of Niletus,
the great astronomer, declared. where
the people are neither too rich nor too
poor"
In his turn said Anacharsis. the
Scythian, "Where virtue is honored
and vice detested" Said Pittacus Of
Mitylene, "Where dignities are always
conferred upon the virtuous and never
upon the base" Said Cleobulus.
"Where the citizens fear blame more
than. punishment" Said Chilo. the
Spartan, where the laws are more re-
garded than the orators
The last to reply was the Youngest

BUILDINGS IN MlNIAT URE.
Architects often Make Clay Modcls
of important Structures.

Although the architect is still the
most important person III the planning
If any big public or private building, he
often depends on the model maker and
not the craftsman to show his patron
lust how the structure Will look when
completed The model maker, III other
words, takes the architects drawings
and makes an exact counterpart OF the
building on a small scale in clay.
When a theater is to be constructed,
for example such model is made with
the greatest minuteness, and every de-
tail is looked at from the point Of view
Of the stage, thus avoiding the posi-
bilty that when it is too late some OF
the seats will be found quite out OF
range of the performance. In other
buildings architectural details that ap-
pear excellent on paper are thus some
times discovered to be inharmonious
with the character of the structure as
a whole and can be changed before the
actual process of their construction has
started. BY the use of models, in fact.
nothing is left to chance and every
body can express his objections before
the work Is too far advanced to make
the necessary changes seriously eXpen

A TEST OF NERVE.
One of xBle Ways In Which Indians
Duel to the Death.

Among the Indian tribes the method
of fighting duels differs. There are
some tribes where challenge to duel
means inevitably that both men must
die. When an Indian feels aggrieved
he demands combat. The day for the
same is fixed far in advance and is
made the occasion Of little celebra-
tion The entire tribe assemblies. The
braves sit in a circle, behind them their
squaws and the young bucks.
The offended man is armed with
rifle or a shotgun. The challenged
principal is unarmed. At word both
men arise and face each other, the un-
armed man barring his breast to the
bullet of his adversary. With eyes
riveted on the little round hole at the
end Of the barrel pointed at him, the
doomed man must face the protracted
ordeal Of expecting death at any in,
slant without the least sign Of weak
ening The eXecutioner may hold his
gun as long as he pleases in order to
try to break down his enemy. lie may
raise it and lower it Or hold it steadily
on the man under the frightful strain,
but not even with an eyelid must the
unfortunate betray his anxiety. At
last the gun cracks. and the bullet
speeds it's way and the victim lies dy-
ing. The slayer hands the weapon to
relative or a friend Of the deceased and
is put through the same ordeal

ANIMALS WANDERiNGS.
Rats the Most Migratory-Lemm innings
Race With Death.


The fable of the country mouse and
the town mouse has foundation in
fact Mice occasionally migrate III
large numbers when food grows scarce
and travel considerable distances to
fresh houses. Farmers in part OF
Perthshire had a good reason to be-
come aware of this fact when a couple
of years ago vast swarms of mice in
vaded their cornfelds at harvest time
But the mouse only travels when 1T
has to. The rat, on the contrary. seems
to take yearly outing in very much
the same fashion as do human beings.
Rats are the most migratory creatures
in the world. Whole troops of rats
leave the towns at the end Of summer
try, apparently in order to enjoy the.
change Of food, which the county af-
fords at that time Of the year in the
way Of fresh fruit and grain. Before
the cold weather sets in they are all
back in their old quarters.
Reindeer migrate with the same regu-
larity as swallows. They move south
when winter sets in, but as soon as
ever the snow begins to melt they
travel steadily north sometimes for as
much as q thousand miles.
To end a holiday by deliberate sui
eide is so strange a phenomenon that
for long time naturalists looked upon
the stories of the migration Of the lem
mings as an improbable fiction Yet
the facts are beyond dispute. At ir-
regular intervals these rat-like crea-
lures start out from their homes in the
Businesses Of northern Scandinavia in
huge droves, numbering tens of thou
sands, and travel steadily southwark.
Death pursues them in a hundred
forms. Hawks and other birds of prey
hover above them. Foxes, wolves and
man decimate them. Thousands are
drowned in rivers. Yet the rest strug-
gle on until they reach the sea. They
do not stop. They plunge in, swim out
and struggle on until at last their
strength fails and they drown. Not
one ever returns from this journey of
| death.-London Answers.

glasses, and at first they afforded great
relief, but at the end Of month there
was a retrogression. Somehow, polish

MAY NOT CONFIRM
ASSISTANT SURGEONS
Mayor McAleer Has Doubts OF Ad-
visibility of Approving Pro-
posed Ordinance

The ordinance providing for the ap-
pointment of two assistant surgeons al

gantlet in the mayors office and police
commission. The council passed the
ordinance last Monday and proceeded
to appoint the men to fill the places
evidently assuming that the ordinance
would be signed.
A good deal of mystery surrounded
the creation of the ordinance. A for
mer member of the police commission
called at the city hall one day last week
and engaged couple of councilmen In
conversation in reference to the adVis-
ability of adding to the force OF sur
geons.
The claim which was presented 70
the councilmen was to the effect that
the assistant surgeon, DR.. Charles Bo-
nynge, then acting under an emergency
appointment, was being overworked by
his two superiors, Drs. Quint and
Smith. 1t was proposed to alleviate
Bonynge's troubles by the addition OF
another assistant.

NEGRO CONGREGATION
IN BITTER WRANG
Injunction Proceedings Filed Against
Preacher and Members of
His Flock

Injunction proceedings were filed
Friendship Baptist church of Pasadena
against Reuben S. Scott, member, D. j..
Bushel, pastor of the church, and
forty-one members of the congregation,
charging them with wilfully holding
back property from it's lawful owners
and with designs upon certain sums
belonging to the church and now in
the National Bank of Pasadena.
The legal proceedings is the result of
long bitter quarrel between the pas
tor and members of the negro congre-
CATION on one side and the church cor
poration, trustees and the remainder
of the congregation on the other hand
1t is alleged by the plaintiffs that
Bushell started a. division in his teach
ings from the regular creed of the
church some time ago and started to
preach a doctrine known as Holiness.
This was resented by the trustees and
to no purpose. and it is further al
legged that the pastor took the church
over entirely for his own use and that
of his companions, 1t is also alleged
that the departers from the creed tried
to secure a sum of more than $500 from
the National Bank of Pasadena, and
the injunction is asked to secure the
money and personal property of the
church trustees.

Erect and bearing the weight of his

noon and asked for a marriage license.
The man entered his name as Oren

bride as Atha S. Cook and her age as
81 years. Both the bride and groom
have lived at Sawtelle for the past few
years and a mutual affection sprang
up between them which they decided
to make lasting by spending the re-
mainder of their lives in each others
company.

PAINTERS ASSERT CITY
SHOWS DISCRIMINATION
Much Complaint Is Made Concerning
Posting and Billboard License
Ordinance

There is an ordinance on the statute
books Of the city Of Los Angeles which,
in the opinion of certain officials Is
designed to keep honest workingmen
from earning the price Of days work.
It is held that the ordinance has pre-
cisely this effect, no matter what
opinion prevailed when 1t was passed.
The law referred to fixes the license
for carrying on a bill posting or adver-
tising business at $50 per quarter. This
is said to satisfy the men who have a
trade established and who handle a
considerable amount of business.
Painters who depend upon an occa-
sional days work, however, and who
are not in the employ of the contract
ing painters, complain that the ordi-
nance is prohibitive in its effect They
assert that in their cases the ordinance
does not impose license, but fine;
and when they have only small job
they say that 1t Is impossible to do the
work without violating the law
It is openly asserted that the ordi-
at the behest of one of the largest
sign painting concerns on the Pacific
coast This firm has large business
in billboards and real estate signs, and
by keeping out the unattached painters
1t is said to maintain a monopoly as
effective as that of Standard Oil.
II is probable that an urgent request
will be presented at the next meeting
of the council for some notifications
in the license tax. The mayor now has
in his possession an amendment which
was passed by the council at the last
meeting. This amendment provides for
the collection of a license of s25 per
quarter from sign painters.
The rates now charged in Los An
geles are high in comparison with sew
eral other cities. In Tacoma the tax
for bill posting is $50 per year. In Chi
cago it is 500 per year with a wagon
and $25 per year without a wagon. In
Washington, d. c., the tax Is $40 per
year.

lantern festival and wllf in some de-
gree take the place of the flower fiesta

the festival have been only partially
worked out but that they will include
some sort of street parade and carni-
val The association Is now in COM
munication with a number of local
Japanese societies From these people
the association expects suggestions
that will enable it to give the nights
entertainment the true oriental flavor.
The agreement presented to the city
