A STATE REALTY BOARD

state realty board received every encouragement carry
this work to completion
There too general idea, real estate dealer
pernently expressed it, "to think we all skinners
or sharks" and nothing will do more to disspate this
erroneous feeling than decided step is in
temptation to put the whole business on a solid
servative and legitimate basis.
With the dealers of the state unedly working toward
one end, under head, vast good can be done The
old wildcat method of fixing charges basis of
"What he stand for?" gives to an adjusted SCALE
known and adhered to- Legislation necessary to expe
dite business and simplify transactions can be asked
for in confidence and with the voice of command
Strangers seeking investments can be sent from one
city to another, till they satisfied The whole real
estate fraternity will be bettered and the business will
be vastly benefited.
Los Angeles speaks knowingly in this matter, for
Angeles has tried it, The local realty board has
complished wonders and not member would surrender
his certificate at any price If city can realize
much good from organization Of this Sort no
reasonably doubt that state organization will be
both profitable and desirable Other states have found
them and California should adopt the idea most

A TIMELY SUNDAY SUBJECT

N fhtEhA oONDnl OODoLOl
Behold, how good and how pleasant It Is for
brethren TO dwell together in unity" And that sent
ment Of David is followed by Matthew with "And all ye
are brethren"
why should citizens of Los Angeles. who have
stood together brethren these many years, become
angry dsputants question Of judgment
ing the veal Of the city?
The saloon Is merely a question of Judgment. It is
the fundamental issue on the broad proposition of
stopping the liquor traffic in Los Angeles In fact the
basic question Of liquor no liquor is not directly in
volved in the pending contest The most jealous advo-
Gates of the nosaloon iterate and reerate
the assurance that "the who has acquired an appe
tite for liquor will not be denied his right to indulge his
craving"
The real issue involved in the no-saloon proposition
is this Would the elimination Of all saloons in Los An
geles be the best of eradcatlng those garing
evils Of the liquor traffic which all citizens deplore?
That is the gst of the whole matter Advocates Of
Los Angeles would soon become a municipal model of
sobrety Other citizens, actuated by quite great
loyalty to the city, take different view The no-saoon
side argues solely from the basis of theory which,
far it has been reduced practice elsewhere has
uniformly proved to be faacious The other side bases
its judgment experience and observation
ing the whole period of human history.
But why should even a radical difference of opinion
this question lead to angry discussion and personal
btterness Both sides to the controversy striving
to attain the end, but by different means. The
greatness and the glory of Los Angeles constitute the
guiding star which all of following.
The people of Los Angeles have caused this city to
grow and prosper without parallel by steadfast manes-
tation of the psamists sentiment quoted above To-
gether they preached prayed for the city and
shoulder to shoulder they have fought for it, And this
cohesion of effort has been the salient feature in
forming the primitive pueblo into the glorious modern
city that all residents adore and that all visitors admire
The issue which agitates the community will
be settled next Friday in the good old democratic way
majority of the voters will decide whether it would
be wise otherwise suddenly to change Los Angeles
into a no-saoon city With the judgment of the
jority as expressed the polls every loyal citizen will
cheerfully concur.
No matter which way the election may CO. Los An
geles will survive The city may suffer material injury
as consequence of the decision but any wrong that
may be inflicted will right itself in time Los Angeles
cannot by any process be pushed the old pueblo
condition. Its metropolitan progress may be checked
by mistaken methods but only temporarily.
Then let the remaining days of the saloon campaign
be conducted becomes and sensible citizens of
Angeles who all striving to further the inter-
ests of the community. Show outsiders that the
people of Los Angeles keep in mind the beautiful in
spiration Behold how good and how pleasant it is for
brethren to dwell together in unity"

name of Dennis Kearney had all the
potency of that of Richard Occur de
Lion had in the land of Saladin, when
Moslem mothers were wont to scare
their young with it's cadence. He
had the whole state in dead scare,
dead to rights. His bellicose below
ings actually frightened the life out
of Hopkins of the railway junta, who
took to his bed and gave up the
ghost after one of Kearneys meetings
on Mob hill. The people had notion
that the great agitator was half
horse, half alligator sort of man,
with a good deal of a Nemean lion
thrown in to make up the frightful
ensemble At the height of the trian-
gular gubernatorial campaign of that
year Kearney started down the coast
on a sort of triumphal career On the
way, from the windows of the carriage,
he was shooting off pistols at rabbits
and showing downright ravening
for villainous saltpeter. He had all
the old women and womanish men
petrified.
kearney Licked by Rule
In an ill moment for him, after cleo
trifying Los Angeles, he went down to
that time. He began to abuse with all
the ribald abandon that characterized
him at all times, friend and employ
er of Rules, who interrupted and con-
tradicted him, showing signs of haul
ing him off the platform, which he was
disgracing with vile personal calumny.
Kearney, scared to death, started
across lots, with Rule after him.
Finding that he was being overhauled
he ran into a drug store with a pistol
in his hand, upon which he laid down.
Rule rushed in after him, gave him
sound beating and put the pistol in
his pocket. That little incident set
tied the blatant Kearney at once and
forever. An Irishman may lack tact,
he may be deficient in judgment and
may sometimes be a downright nuis-
ance, but when he shows himself to
be a poltroon, the Irish themselves,
first of all, have no use for him. Rule
and his fists lost William +. White,
the workingmen's candidate for gov
ernor, and the father of the late Sena-
tor White, many thousands of votes.
1t may be a question Of doubt wheth-
er we have in the Los Angeles of to-
day so many curious characters as
we had in those old days, when our
population was next to nothing. Take
a man, for instance, who died as Ga
briel Allen, liked by everybody and es-
| teemed by everybody. He was differ
ent individual-very different-in his
| old "Gabe" Allen days. For years he
was the personifcation of the daredev-
| iltry of the frontier. One day he rode
| into the saloon of the Bella Union ho-
| tel on horseback, with cooked re-
volvers in his hand and made
every one kotow to him. On
such occasions Gabe would of
course be in his cups. One day he
meandered into this saloon when the
only other occupant was a stranger,
sickly looking and reserved Gabe ad-
dressed some command to this gentle
man, accompanied by an insulting re-
mark With an oath which would
have started train of army mules up
a steep hill, the stranger drew long
and cleaning bowie knife and started
for Gabe Fortunately our fellow cit
izen was agile. The way he lit out OF
that saloon was a sight. There is a
perfectly reliable tradition around Los
Angeles that there was great inn
provement in Gabe Aliens manners af-
ter that incident.

They brought with them choice refresh

Miss Bessie Allen assisted in entertain

two piano solos, and Miss Marion, the
