The wedding of Miss Helen Hutton

cival Glenn Winnett was solemnized
last evening. The ceremony was per-
formed by Rev. Baker P. Lee, and the
bridal party stood in a corner of the
wide porch under a canopy of ferns
and Easter lilies from which chime
of wedding bells depended. The bride
was gowned in white embroidered chif-
fon over taffeta A wealth of beautiful
dark hair was partially hidden beneath
a long null veil fastened with orange
blossoms. For a bouquet she carried
Easter lilies. Miss Louise Mills, who
attended her as maid of honor, also
wore a gown of embroidered chiffon
over taffeta, but hers was in a dainty
shade of pink, and she carried pink
rosebuds. Two dainty young women

LIFE INSURANCE SOLIDITY

There are many thousands of life insurance policy
holders in Los Angeles and the policies represent
millions of dollars The rupture in the management Of
the great Equitable Assurance society of New York,
three leaders such institutions in the
whole world, has caused local anxiety. The dis
of extravagant management of the Equtables
affairs and particularly the loss Of confidence by
son of alleged escapades the part of a prominent
official in that concern, has created uneasiness
policy holders. This feeling possibly has been
communicated in measure, to persons interested
in other colossal life companies in the east.
1t is the belief of The Herald, however, that there
whatever for uneasiness the part of per-
sons insured In any of these big concerns. The
sources of the Equitable that the
CANT management amount only to "a drop in the
bucket" The great corporation is in process of
rehabilitation and confidence in it will undoubtedly be
fully restored under satisfactory business control
The developments in the of the Equitable, how
ever seem show the need of stringent super
its great army of policy holders. The practice of lend
ing vast sums companys funds to favores among
the railway magnates, approved securities, is
a kind of favorsm calculated to weaken public conf
dence.
1t is probable that the developments in the Of
whereby the public will have means of knowing from
time to time about the financial situation of such
a company and the character of its management.

THE BOSS OF THE ROAD

The audacous concern known as the Dustless Roads
company encountered backset in its first legal tilt
with California municipalities. After many months of
preparation in suits against cities and individuals for
alleged infringement of its road oing patent the in
itial brought in the local federal court dis
missed, with costs charged to the company.
1t is understood, however, that the company has
merely switched off to another and promising
Redlands be the next point of attack That city,
it seems recognized the claim Of the company some
years ago the extent of paying tribute for the priv
ege squirting oil it's roads What the effect of
that precedent may have the judicial aspect of the
case remains be seen but Redlands is confident of
winning its fight.
The claims of the Dustess Roads based
on a brazen assumption. The company assumes that
patent issued to it for certain method of road ong
prohibits the of oil in any other way for road
purposes natural product of Los Angeles for
instance may used to lay the dust
a foreign company holds patent for particu
lar method of applying oil for such purposes.
This claim ridiculous in the light of facts showing
that oil was used for just such purpose many years
before this boss of the heard of in the patent
Office The patent in question not issued until
1896 There are numerous afhdavits in hand proving
that oil was used on California streets and roads at
various points stretching from San Francisco to San
Diego at periods dating back 1886 Descriptions Of
road ong in the great Russian oil district at Baku
published in the United States in 1887 and according
the patent laws fact alone invaldates the claim
of the dusless concern
All the cities and towns that have been attacked by
this concern pooled their defense issue and the
claims will be fought only to the "bitter end" but
away beyond, If necessary.

TREND OF CITY POPULATION

It Is erroneous conclusion probably that Los
Angeles will maintain It's recent ratio Of in
population In the years ahead 1t is not likely to go on
doubling in population in five or six years There
is to doubt that it stl will lead all American
cities In growth with good margin but the growth will
not be so phenomenal It has been in the last decade
That is conclusion derived from the experience of all
the larger cities Of the United States
What will this decline in the ratio of this
citys Increase in population? The that has
checked, to some extent the increase in other cities
rapid transit When city reaches the point In its
growth where most of the inhabitants must use transit
facilities there begins at tendency of the popua
on to spread beyond the city limits That is especially
true in cases where there excellent means of rapid
transit Los Angeles for example. The homeseeker Of
limited prefers TO ride five ten minutes longer
in car for the sake of saving half the cost or more Of
his building site.
These conclusions are corroborated by the statistics
of all our larger cities. marked change in the disr
button of population has been going since the advent
of electric transit For instance, the increase of New
Yors population in the last years has been largely
in the outskirts and there has been vast overflow be-
yond the city limits In Philadelphia there has been
actual decrease of population in the central wards while
those the outer edge have gained enormously. Chi
cago St Louis Cleveland and in fact all the larger
cities show the same popularity in greater less de-
gree
This scattering of urban population will be less
noticeable statistcally in Los Angeles than in any
other large city This because of the immense of
the city and the comparative cheapness of home sites
therein that will prevail In the future. The trend
of population will be toward the outskirts of the city
and the convenient suburbs beyond the city limits.
The marvellous system of transit that Mr. Hunting
has provided in this section is revolutionzng the
whole system of home making. Residence districts
which especially attracted home seekers of large
passed in these days and locations sought
far beyond The home seeker Of limited means, by
of the splendid transit service is enabled to live
on the outskirts of the CITY, even beyond, as con-
venenty he formerly lived in district "close in
But the population that reaches out to the city
limits or to points beyond in the envrons will all be
part of the city in which affection and material interests
centered.
