ELECTION RETURNS TO ORDER

"The crying need Of today in Buffalo
is to get rid Of the voting machine.
There has been no more disfranehisina
agency placed before the people as a
oontrivanee for defeating their Wishes"
So says Buffalo newspaper, in
whose city the voting machine has
been weighed In the balance and found
wanting" Il is not only general fault
finding with machine voting that forms
the basis Of complaint in Buffalo. Spe-
cific charges are made that alone should
be sufficient to deter Los Angeles or
any other city from making the mis-
take that Buffalo acknowledges.
Instances were manifold in the re-
cent election" says the Buffalo news
paper, "where men having paramount
desire to defeat one candidate especial
ly, such as Mock on the Republican
ticket, and fearing they might lose their
vote by making errors in the attempt
to accurately split pulled down the
lever over the entire Democratic ticket,
thus voting against many tip-top Re-
publicans in order to wreak their ven-
geance upon one man"
Another city Of New York state, Os-
wego, makes complaint similar to that
which comes from Buffalo. The Oswego
Times alludes to the complete break
down of two machines, with results that
may readily be understood. 1t is de-
clared that This mechanical device has
been tried for several years and has
been found, i'm innumerable instances,
to be absolutely wanting. 1t permits in
its operation manifest exhibitions of
unfairness by the election authorities.
Public questions which it is desired to
hide from the easy observation of the
voter can be side-tracked on the ma
chine to obscure positions where they
will escape notice"
Los Angeles cannot afford to intro
duce such a doubtful method i'm the
operation of the elective franchise. The
idea of machine voting is repugnant to
Americans on general principles and
that repugnance is intensified by evil
dence that the purpose of the voter may
be reversed by machine manipulation.
This is machine age, and the tend
ency toward machine work is apparent
in nearly every line of enlightened en-
deavor. But the line should be drawn
when it comes to putting the sacred
elective franchise at the mercy of poll
ticians, often with flexible consciences
and operating easily manipulated vot-
ing machines.
Los Angeles should take warning by
the experience of cities in which, as ono
of the papers here quoted says, voting
machines have been tried and been
found absolutely wanting"
Los Angeles herald., 1905-12-01
POLITICAL PIRATES

Presumably the thought has not oc-
CURED to anybody that Abe Ruef
political boss of San Francisco, is in
politics solely for his health. Possibly
some observers have wondered, how
ever, by what means Ruef gets his
share of the political plunder and how
that share stocks up in dollars. As
the San Francisco boss is a type of the
political pirate chief it is interesting to
get points concerning his methods, AS
they probably shed light upon the
methods of such bosses i'll other cities.
The Sacramento Bee, which has good
opportunities for keeping in close touch
with political affairs in San Francisco,
says: Through the business that
came to him (RueD as an attorney last
year, by virtue of his association with
the mayor and his clutch on the mu-
nicipal machine, Ruef is said to have
protted to the extent of $500, ,O00." That
is stupendous sum to filch in a single
year, but Boss Ruef is nearly omnip-
otent in his political control and he
opportunity for feathering his nest.
He is too willy to be caught In the
graft net, hence, as the Bee declares,
"he has the cunning to see that as an
attorney he may take fees which,
while in their nature bribes, are per-
fectly legal" And so, because of his
understanding with Mayor Schmitz
and the various departments of the
city government controlled by that Of
fetal, scarcely anything can be had
from the municipality. either legitimate
or illegitimate, without seeing Ruef or
some one in touch with him."
1t is this shameless but adroit plum
derer who now is scheming to get such
a hold upon the state Of California as
he has secured upon the city of San
Francisco. Political control OF the
state is quite a different proposition
from control OF the big city, but Ruei
is unquestionably master OF finesse
Los Angeles herald., 1905-12-01

In municipal politics and he certainly
is dangerous factor in state politics.
The same powerful influences" says
the Bee, "the same selfish and uu-
scrupulous corporations that have
aided to keep these men (Ruef and
Schmitz) in power at San Francisco,
may be expected to covertly help them
to further their growing ambitions
With these great corporations at their
back, and with the support Of the mis-
led and deluded labor organisations,
what may not Ruef and schmitz ae-
complish unless a strong, relentless
fight be made against them by all who
see and deplore the danger of their
further rise in the political world"
In that concluding suggestion lies
the remedy for curbing, at the thresh-
old Of state politics, the aims of this
nefarious pair of political pirates who
hold San Francisco by the throat. All
Californians who see and deplore the
danger" Of the Ruef-Schmltz invasion
of state politics should get together and
stand shoulder to shoulder in defense
of the honor and well-being of the
state,
Los Angeles herald., 1905-12-01
A SILLY ACT

The present city council has here
tofore manifested considerable ability
and strength of purpose, but the Fool
Killer was on a vacation when it
adopted the resolution introduced by
the Sixth ward misfit, promising to
take under consideration the advisa-
bility of recommending to the mayor
the appointment of union laborite to
the board of public works.
Now, why a union laborite, to the
exclusion of every other class of citi-
zens? Why not recommend Il Metho-
dist or a doctor, or a chauffeur, or n
member of the Voters league? Or why
not recommend a non-union la aborite,
as representing the larger portion of
the community?
The Sixth warders resolution is
silly-a bit of demagogy that the city
council should be ashamed of having
taken into consideration. 1t is presum-
able that representative citizens who
may be chosen to the board of public
works will represent all classes, else the
law and the power given to the mayor
are a farce. What all the people want
on the board of public works is men
of intelligence and good Judgment, men
who will not be swayed this way and
that by any class or combination, but
who will act for the good of the city as
a whole. Anything short of that would
be reprehensible and the act of a
traitor to public duty.
Class Legislation is demagogy, play.
ing to the galleries is disgusting and
the people of Los Angeles are surprised
at the attitude of the city council in
yielding for even moment to the
turbulence of the misrepresentation of
the Sixth ward.

SAFE LEE INSURANCE.

1t was a pleasing Thanksgiving
proclamation" that was issued by the
chairman of the committee which is in
Vestigating the big New York life
Insurance companies. He advises all
policy holders against allowing their
policies to lapse because of anything
revealed in the investigation, and he
tells them they ARE In a better no.
sition now than before the investiga-
tion began" He also assures them
that the committee will recommend
legislation to safeguard their interests.
This official assurance from the in
Vestigating committee is directly in
line with the judgment of The Herald
from the beginning of the damaging
disclosures brought out by the COM
mittee. As was pointed out to policy
holders In these columns, the surplus
of each of the three big companies Is
so enormous that the most lavish
grating on the part of officials could
not endanger the policies.
Two Of these companies already
law SUI III VI tiSlI grating D1eSl-
dents, and the third one will be in like
condition soon. Following the presi-
dents, the retinues of grating rela-
tives and favorites who for years have
been fattening at the expense of wild
ows and orphans, will have to "step
down and out" Then will come a
publication of the entire business of
the companies, the adoption of eco
nomic methods and the general opera
tion of the concerns in the interest of
the policy holders instead of in the in
terest of groups of leeches.
But the reform thus instituted will
not stop with reconstruction of the
three companies in New York. Policy
holders in all life insurance companies
of every character have become more
or less uneasy by reason of the revela-
tions in New York. There will be.
consequently, general demand for a
showing of the actual situation in each
concern and the introduction of such
reforms as appear to be needful for
honest and economic management

GENERAL CHAFFEE

DISTINGUISHED COMMANDER
LOOKS FOR NEW HOME
viii Spend Month Visiting Friends
In Los Angeles, and on Retirement
From Service May Become
a Resident

Lieut.. Gen. Adna r. Chaffee. ac-
companied by Mrs. Chaffee, arrived in
Los Angeles yesterday afternoon at
5:15 O'clock over the Santa Fe, having
been delayed several hours by wash
outs, and went directly to the home
of Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Albers of 26i0
Menlo avenue. They will remain at
the Albers home during their stay of
one month i'm Los Angeles.
General Chaffee will retire from SER
vice next April, according to army
regulations regarding age, and has
come to California to look for a home
I'm which to spend the remainder of his
life.
He told a reporter last evening that
it Is possible that he might purchase
a residence in Los Angeles while here
and make this his home after leaving
the army.
Il like Los Angeles" he said "and
| may buy property while here with
the purpose of returning next spring.
Yes, it is possible that | may make
this my permanent residence. 1 can
not say just what l will do vet for
like Washington and New York, too.
My wife likes California, and we will
look around during our visit here"
Fifteen years ago when he ranked
as lieutenant colonel under General
Miles. with the duties of inspector
general of the department of Arizona.
he was stationed in Los Angeles. At
that time he owned a home i'm this
city which he sold after being trans
ferred. and had headquarters in the
Bryson building.
General Chaffee has passed from the
rank of the private soldier to the rank
which he now holds Though bravery
and reward of merit.
Rose From the Ranks
He first enlisted in the army during
the civil war and rose rapidly from
the ranks through the various grades
OF officers. AS an Indian fighter In
Texas and Arizona in later years he
holds an enviable reputation for bray
cry. The part he played in the Span
ish-American war was an important
one, and at the close of it he was
appointed brigadier general. He took
part i'm the Boxer uprising in China,
and was afterwards appointed mill
tary governor of the Philippine islands.
His headquarters are now at Wash
ington and will remain there until his
retirement next spring.

HER GOLDEN HAIR

Elsie was dainty, doll-like,
A girl OF youth divine,
With eyes of softest azure
And lips of dewy wine.
Though there were other maidens
With faces quite as fair,
Not one among them boasted
Such braids Of golden hair.
1t glinted in the shadow,
1t shimmered in the sun,
A length of crinkled glory
OF silken fiosses spun.
1t crowned as with a halo
Her head of shapely mold,
Oh, how / used to worship
It's waves OF shining gold!
one summer morning early
She took a sail with me,
Our little skiff was cranky
And spilled us in the sea.

But ere we reached the land,
Beholdi her yellow tresses
Came on within my hand.
