THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE

The annual meeting of the chamber of commerce on
Wednesday was fresh reminder of the ncalculable
benefit Los Angeles has derived from the work Of that
organization. Not only this city but its neighborng
communities and in fact the whole of Southern Cali
fornia, owe much of their splendid progress TO the
chamber AS representative body of citizens, iden
fed with every material interest and always alert in
behalf of the social and moral welfare of this city and
section the chamber of commerce has been largely
instrumental in making Los Angeles and its neigh
borhood what they today.
Without other reward than the consciousness Of
work well done and appreciated by the community, the
members of the chamber contribute both time and
money year after year, for the public benefit. AS
crowning effort the chamber has erected magnificent
structure for it's special purpose, unequaled by any
thing of it's kind in the western half of the continent.
This building part of which is occupied by The Herald,
already familiar to the American people by Of
the exhibit at the ST. Louis worlds fair, the calls of
tourists and the mass of literature sent out from the
chamber to every part of the United States.
The citizens of Los Angeles fully appreciate the
service rendered by the chamber of commerce in the
upbuding of the city and of the minor cities and towns
of Southern California. The directors and general
officers of the organization who devote so much time
grauitously the work Of the chamber have the heart
felt thanks of all classes of citizens

THE URBAN ONE MILLION CLASS

few years ago local real estate agent surprised
the by erecting huge billboards conspicuousy
which emblazoned this legend: Population of Los
Angeles in 191O 25O,OOO." The scheme regarded
by citizens bright advertising idea the legend
was followed by the agents business address, but the
statement was taken seriously. 1t is doubtful in
fact if the agent himself thought anything about his
apparently wild prediction beyond its servceabity in
attracting attention to his business.
Those billboards have "held the fort" ever since,
and that prophetic legend today stares at people from
many points. But there is marked change in the
public estimation of the real estate mans prediction
The fact universally recognized by citizens that
the estimate of 25OOO0 the citys population in 1910
is quite conservative. In fact it needs only little
reflection and perhaps little figuring to convince
that the estimate is likely prove low rather than
too high.
At the rate of increase in the city's population
since the last federal the figure in 1910 will be
well the 100000 mark The total increase since
June 190O when the taken is not less than
10000 At that time four and a half years ago, Los
Angeles had 102,479 inhabitants. Conceding an in
Of 10000 since that time few figures will show
that the rate of increase for years would add
1886. To that number add the population in 1900
and we have total Of 258,O94 in 1910 That estimate
not take into account the compounding Of increase
in each succeeding year, which would swell the figures
immensely.
On this basis of increase how long will it be before
Los Angeles takes place among the cities which have
100000 or more inhabitants? There were only thir-
teen cities in the world in that at the beginning
of the century, four years ago. Those cities their
populations at that time London, 4536541 (met-
ropolan district, 6,5S1S72); New York, 34372O2;
Paris 2,714,06S Berlin, 1,SSSS4S; Chicago, 1893 575
Vienna, 1674957; Canton, 100000; Toxic, 144Ol21;

FLTNT's SENATORIAL POLICY

The policy outlined by senator.elect Flint for his
guidance in washington s satisfactory to Caornians
of all classes and all parties It implies the PROMISE
in a general sense that the senator will give "the
best that is in him" for his state and his constituents
emphatic of purpose to labor zealousy in
behalf of certain issues that of vital concern to
California interests.
The question of transportation across the continent
is the important of ALL perhaps in its bearing on
the development and prosperity of the state Excessive
freight charges and favorsm toward certain classes
of shippers are heavy handicap the states produc
tive industries Mr.. Flint puts himself squarely
record as Opposed the ownership of private lines
and railroad rebates and he promises to do all in his
power stop those abuses Hence he is in favor Of
mission"
Mr. Flint declares himself in favor of increased
appropriations for the reclamation of arid lands, and
he says "It will be my endeavor to that just
proportion of the appropriations for this purpose is
pended in California" On the Arizona statehood ques-
ton the senatoreect takes decisive stand for the
right II am emphatcally in favor of statehood for
Arizona" which of implies opposition to the
attempted merging of that territory with New Mexico
So far as Mr. Flint has outlined his senatorial plat
FORM the brief statement at Sacramento his position
pledged himself do his level best" for his state in
return the exalted honor 1t has conferred him.
The pledge is matter of record and the people Of
California will be on the keen lookout to how the
acts accord with the senatorelects promises
