at the next session of Congress sew
eral matters of special Importance and
interest 20 the Army and Navy will
be presented for legislation Among
these are important recommendations
affecting the commissioned personnel
of the navy. which will be presented
10 Congress by the Navy Department.
The General Board of the Navy. of
which Admiral George Dewey is the
president is at work on scheme
which will require Congressional leg
islation before il can be put into prac-
tice for retirement in grade of Off
GERS, which would prevent any officer
over a certain age from remaining in
the respective grades without promo.
tion. The Navy Department and the
General Board hope that a scheme
may be devised whereby younger off,
GERS may attain command rank, and
rear-admirals may reach that rank
when about 80 years of age and serve
as such for seven years. AS the mat
ter now stands il rarely happens that a |
rear admiral serves as such more than |
one or two years before he attainS the /
age of 90 years and must be retired.

Los Angeles herald., 1905-03-20
LOS ANGELES AS VENICE

The people of Los Angeles not amphibious, as
newly arrived strangers lately here had
suspect Citizens do not paddle through watery streets
after the manner of ducks just for fun.
The lakeets that have been in evidence the last
days only temporary water deposits Alameda
street is not reversible land thoroughfare and river
adapted wheeled vehicles day and aquatic craft
the next All this to set Alright the natural suspicious
visitors to Los Angeles for the first time who ar
rived here last week.
The evidence of provncalsm which strangers have
witnessed in flooded streets has been source of
modification to all citizens Such astonishing con-
dtion, as viewed by dwelers in eastern cities, seems
date aspect of Los Angeles 1t is hard reconcile
such pueblo characteristics in city of metropolitan
pretension with a population of 100000
But if visiting friends will kindly forgive this
glarng present defect in local conditionshis wretched
travesty the play of Venice-Los Angeles will
promise that the spectacle shall occur again
Before the coming of another winter, unless some
unexpected obstacle ntervenes the street lakeles and
the Alameda street river will be gone forevermore.
The change thus promised will result from the COM
pletion of a comprehensive system, in progress,
carrying away beneath the ground surface all
water But for the fact that this improvement involves
a vast expenditure of money it would have been con-
summaed years ago. The need Of 1t has been sorely
felt every winter but the great cost involved has
caused action to be deferred from time to time. The
ever increasing urgency however, at last made the
work Imperative and there is scarcely doubt that it
will be completed we'll before the end of this year.
Los Angeles in the role of Venice positively makes
its last appearance this season.

MODERN RIVER BRIDGES

Since it appears positively that loss of life
suited from the Seventh street bridge disaster it may
be that the floods sweep at that point another
tion of the shaly unsighy old bridge surely will
prove to be blessing if it leads to the construction
hereafter of river bridges that not architectural
frights
For the application of this structure the ugly
wooden that spans the river Fourth street,
which finished only few weeks ago.
If may rely upon the expressed views of prom
inent councilman, in our city bridge build
ing will begin with the construction of the bridge
Seventh street. In yesterdays Herald Councilman
quoted thus: THE city will have
railway company doubtless will be willing go in
joint proposition and pay one-third of the cost"
Another member of the council is credited with
saying that the city should bridge at Seventh
which will meet the demands for years to come
and which will be credit to the city"
At various times particularly when the wooden eye
at Fourth street projected, The Herald has
urged the Importance Of erecting such ornate
bridges in Los Angeles in all progress
sive cities of the east. Nothing farther toward
beautifyng city than handsome steel river spans.
Angeles has been slower than any other city of
it's class in recognizing that fact.
But the time has come, evidently for Los Angeles
overcome the garng defect in it's bridge structures
handsome modern steel bridge at Seventh street
will be an object lesson calculated to make citizens
eager the displacement of all the pueblo bridges
in the city.

COUNTY DIVISION A MENACE

Is the secret out concerning that mysterious county
division act passed by the legislature and in the
hands of the governor?
There has been but little doubt from the first that
IAN African" was concealed somewhere in that wood
pile The unexpected passage Of the and the
lack OF any percevabe need for 1t at caused pub
lie suspicion to be aroused
The explanation given out too fimsy for seri-
consideration. II to the effect that certain
citizens of Santa Clara county wished to secede and set
up for themselves and that certain other citizens
the eastern border of Angeles county had similar
ambition. Neither Of these propositions had sufficient
force to justify the passage Of state law whereby any
county in the state might be easily dismembered.
But now come revelations indicating that railway
interests convergng hereabout the real factors In
the county division scheme and that they have
specific purpose in view that vitality important to the
city and county of Los Angeles
1t is nothing less than a scheme to dsmember this
county by the secession Of San Pedro together with
large sweep of coast territory.
According to the pending division act it only would
be necessary in order to effect such secession for 60
per Of the voters the seeding district to declare
their desire to set up county.
If the scheme so outlined is the salient pupose of
the act the mystery of its passage at becomes
clear.
The railway interests, looking to the great
mercal future of San Pedro and it's harbor, desire
free hand in shaping everything connected Herewith
Experience teaches those interests that Los Angeles
will protect other industries from railway domination
far possible.
But with Los Angeles eliminated and county
erected on the line the railway interests would be
in absolute control of both San Pedro harbor and the
rest of the coast within the limits of the proposed
county
Possibly the assumption here noted is erroneous
but 1t certainly looks plausible There be mis-
take about the danger however that would result from
the enactment of the county division 1t is
vicious at best, SNAKE in the grass" and the gov
do the state better service than by kill
ing it.

At the Grand

In spite of the rain yesterday after
noon a large crowd was turned away
from the Grand All of the standing
room was sold before the curtain went
up.
Beware OF Men," which is the new
offering at the local playhouse, is not
the sinister play of dark and evil viii
lainy that the title might suggest, but
merely the same old story of the erring
"child of nature" rescued by young
minister and welcomed home at last.
The minister" got In as much
"chinning" as any real brother of the
cloth, a good deal too much to suit the
clamorous gallery, who ungallantly
muttered something about CLOSING his
face"
Auda Due, as the "child of nature"
was sufficiently lackadaisical and lacri-
NOSE. She comes home, with her little
grip, in the middle of down east"
winter in a traily, too lovely" white
thing that is modestly low-necked, and
the gallery howled a glorious welcome
when papa took her in his arms.
The other parts, with less chances
for effect, are as we'll taken, and un-
doubtedly the piece (Fitzgerald Muir
phy's). will play to good business.
1t is a play bald and sapless and
trite to the last extreme of even melo-
drama, and if sensitive souls frequented
the Grand 1t would hurt them to hear
fine old hymns and big biblical truths
so dished up
The questionable morality of the err
ing ones final rejoicing. too, one might
object to. But Grand audience does
not object and Beware of Men" 8
hashy title will draw a crowd.

Evil

"It is a serious question that con-

malice toward none. We are working
In the cause that is certainly right

The saloons are an unmixed evil. Some
say that they have always existed
and will continue to exist. We propose
to show that such statements are
false"
This was the declaration of Will A.
Harris at Temple auditorium yester-
day afternoon at the no saloon meet
ing. Despite the rain, a large Audience
assembled for the meeting.
Mr.. Merrill called the meeting to
order. The Rev. r. A. Heal,' offered
prayer. j. B. Works was Introduced
as chairman.
II am unqualifledly in favor of any
legislation to suppress the manufacture
and sale of liquor" said Mr.. Works.
I'VE may differ in our methdls, but
we are all aiming at the same result.
do not believe that much is accom-
plished by the abuse of the SALON men.
We must appeal to reason in .lealing
with them, to accomplish our AIMS In
depriving them of what they cal their
personal liberty 1t is not an cas- task
we have before us. We must enter
upon the work with firmness, fobwed
out patiently and Justly, that th sa-
looms must be suppressed. Vitory
will then surely be ours"
Mr.. Harris Speaks
Will A. Harris was next introdced.
He said in part:
1--WE must have law that good ,eo-
pie can uphold and maintain in up
pressing the saloon. 1t is the ule
tempted it is accomplished. 1t las
even SO regarding the abolition of
slavery"
In this connection Mr.. Harris dwlt
somewhat on political lines
"One spot of infamy is that of AsSt
park" the speaker continued. lit
us suppress all such gambling inst
tutions. Like the saloon, it is said tht
gambling will always exist. Shall VI
fold our hands and say that we cannd
suppress this gambling evil that Il
running our young men? NO! we
must stand firm against it.
1--WE have ample room for churches
and schools, manufactures, profess
sional and laboring men. All who may
come with brains and sobriety are well
coined among us. But we have no
room for the saloons"
