THE LAWS DELAY.

Five years ago two rascally con-
tractors named Gaynor and Greene
robbed the government OF large sums
of money through the connivance of
Oberlin NJ. Carter, who has just served
a five years term in prison for his
part in the affair, and who Is now
being sued civilly for $500, 900 Of the
governments money which ne misap-
propriated .
Gaynor and Greene fed to Canada
and have beer fighting extradition ev-
er since.
Powerful as is the United States
| and anxious as is the British govern
ment to return our criminals for pun
ishment, It has taken FIVE long years
OF fighting in the court to get the cul,
prits out of Canada.
They will now return to Georgia
and stand trial. They have benefited
| by the laws delay for a season, but
have at last been brought to Ray.
Their casc is a sad trayersty upon
our methods of Jurisprudence; but In
the final analysis. It shows that the
way Of the transgressor is hard when
Uncle Sam sets out after him.

Having lived Immediately opposite
Crescent Heights on Sunset boulevard
for the last ten years, you may know
that I am charmed with the location
and would not exchange 1t for any
other location near Los Angeles, and

ments being made in this tract that /

such property Is bound to double in
value in the near future.

pect in the near future to locate my

Evidently all spots look alike to you
and to me in Los Angeles when it comes
down to investing, but, just like the
Easter bonnets that are on tap ana
passing in review today, some are
fairer to look upon than others VI
course they are all Easter creations
and real estate is all creation. but some
creations look better and have more
backing and filling.
Last Sunday 1 told you much ABOUT
the prospects of values in the district
within one thousand feet of the corner
Of Eighth and Broadway as a center.
Evidently the information was timely
as notice that the wise ones pricked
I'd their ears, and you will notice in The
Herald today a fine array of property
advertised within that area. tell you,
printers ink does count.
But let's get down to the things that
are real today, since the bells have
pealed with loud acclaim that the
period of fasting is over. And let me
appeal to you that your eyes had better
be riveted upon Sixth street for while.
Last November I raised my voice in
behalf of Sixth street, and just now
the predictions made at that time are
coming true. If you will stand on Main
street where Sixth street now really
begins, as far as outward improve
ments go. you will be in the shadow of
the great Huntington building. On the
opposite corner the Severance interests
are building a handsome block.
The other two corners are held by
w. G. Kerckhoff and f. T. Earl, on
Sixth and Main. and these are not for
sale. They will be improved as tenants
can be found to occupy the entire
buildings. The w. G. Kerckhoff home
stead once stood on the northeast cor
ner Of Main and Sixth.
On Sixth and Spring the southeast
corner is to be improved with a hand
some building, the foundations foI
which now are in. DIR. Henderson Hay
ward has ordered out his tenants on
the southwest corner of Sixth anC
Spring, and this means another big
building. on the northwest corner Is
the new Frost company and bank, oi
which Frank w. Kelsey is the head.
But the biggest thing now planned
for Sixth is the southwest corner Of
Broadway. where j. III. Norton or
SOx144 feet will erect a seyen-storS
building. The northwest corner Is
owned by the Rowan and Churchill in
Ierests and | am reliably informed that

None of the Rowan interest has told
me this, but it is told in public that
that progressive crowd will never let
valuable property remain idle.
What Nelson Story will do with the
southeast corner of Broadway and
Sixth, the Lord only knows, but he's
rich a-plenty and can do wonders if
he wants to- He's the Montana banker,
you know.
On the Sixth street front that faces
Central park much is promised. Bob
Work tells me that he and Hollings-
worth, who own the southeast corner
will improve when certain formallties
are overcome. Judge Charles Silent
who holds the southwest corner of Hill
and Sixth at $4,000, is completing his
negotiations for an improvement that
will adorn a notable corner with a

E. T. Earl, for all Of which flattering
offers for leases have been made. From
Olive westward Sixth street reaches to
the Bellevue terrace on Figueroa street,
and everyone knows that values have
followed the asphaltum pavement that
extends from Main to Figueroa street.
Sixth street from Olive westward Is one
mass of buildings that have been erect
ed in the past three years.
In order to beautify Sixth street a
lighting scheme is proposed from Main
to Olive, and as the lighting of Hill
street includes a series of beautiful
globes around Central park that section
will be perfectly lighted. The lighting
of Hill street, by the way, will extend
from Fifth street to Pico.
All of this, of course, affects Olive
street and other cross streets, but the
Olive street people between Fifth and
Sixth streets have agreed to set back
their buildings six feet, thus creating
one of the widest sidewalks in the city.
would like to mention also the Elks
building on the northwest corner of
Olive and Fifth, and also the audi
torium building on the northeast cor
ner of Fifth and Olive.
Say don't this all make you feel just
little swimmy on this gladstone day,
when you realize that you live in a city
that is growing so fast that a Kansas
corn stalk is no patching?
And again, just think of it, that in
April, so far, 81 1853, ,O40 has been invest
ed In buildings in this city in the heart
of the valley that points its nose west
ward from the Sierra Madres into old
ocean.
And that of this amount over $4,000
has gone into 400 homes in the same
glorious spring month.
Don't ask for more. Just give more
thanks, II. j. r.
