CUT OUT THE ~MoRAL CANCER"

There is no doubht that the sentiment of vast
majority Of the reputable citizens Of Los Angeles is ex
pressed in the communication from leading merchant
to the Merchants and Manufacturers association,
printed in yesterdays Herald In regard to the racing
business that has been conducted in this city for
months and which is scheduled to continue for some
months ahead the merchant tersely characterizes It
moral cancer"
Speaking Of it specifically he says; ut is menace
to the youth of this city and a oadstone which at
tracts criminal from all points of the compass
At the present time in Los Angeles financial well
as moral interests suffering from the gambling
spirit which is born of bookmaking. Scarcely ed-
ton of the daily papers can be picked up but chron-
cles the downfall of some woman who has
squandered money not his her at the race
track"
Horse racing per is not responsible but in these
days it is rarely If disassocated from gambling
and kindred evils. In relation to the local racing
event alluded there is hardly preense that it is
anything above the level of its Characterization in the
merchants letter The fact that the racing business
is going on daily for something like half year without
ntermssion is sufficient indication that racing per Sc
is a secondary consideration.

in Los Angeles to aid the passage of the bill by

community at heart should sign the petition and

LUCK OF THE LIGHTING COMBINE

The solution of the special Broadway lighting prob
lem is the best obtanabe. The main purpose of the
merchants and other business of that street will
be achieved They will have the satisfaction of seeing
their imposing thoroughare Illuminated it deserves
to be and as they had planned have it. In con-
sderaton of conveyance to the city of the ornamental
lamp outfit reaching from Temple to Tenth Streets
the city will arrange for the lighting of the lamps and
pay thereof of the special fund for lighting
purposes Broadway will be beautifully illuminated
three other leading thoroughfares at least
will enjoy similar distinction.
Nevertheless, the outcome of the settlement thus
noted distinct victory for the lighting monopoly.
1t has that substantial opposition to that
monopoly planned by the Broadway merchants,
would be stupendous undertaking AS the latter adj
NIT in their communication to the city council they
'did fully realize the magnitude of such under
taking when handled by association of men
loosely bound together by temporary mutual inter
ests" Hence they avoid all trouble and risk and at
the time accomplish their primary purpose, by
making the city present of their S14 1000 worth of
lamp property in consideration Of permanent lighting
of the thoroughfare originally contemplated
But the hope of many citizens is eXtinguished by
this compromise The fact has long been realized by
the public that the lighting combine is monarch of all
it surveys long its right there is to dis
pute" The ordinance pending in the city council will
be helpful public interests in of its adoption,
but the combine will still be substantially master or
the situation. The ordinance provides for lighting
charges to be determined by the city authorities and
system of city inspection carrying certain power
of control Experience teaches however, that it is not
wise to expect entirely satisfactory results in matter
where powerful combine is pitted against municipal
officials.
The Los Angeles lighting service is in situation
quite similar to that of San Francisco few
Fortunately for that community, however, it had
citizen with both the grit and the money necessary
to tackle the lighting giant The giant tackled
successfully although the fight involved millions
of dollars of Claus Speckes surplus.
Possibly the luck of Los Angeles will some day al
tract a counterpart of Claus Spreckels with money
enough to fight the lighting combine to finish

A BARBARoUs SCHOOL QUESTION

An object lesson bearing on a reprehensibe practice
among school pupils is reported from Alameda 1t per-
ains to an evident ambition the part of youths in
the schools of lower grades emulate students in col
leges and universities in what is known as hazing
The case to which attention is called here is reported
thus A boy eight years of age attending school in
Alameda was put through a of hazng or what
ever it may be called by number of his schoolmates
AS described by the principal of the school, "he boys
have been in the habit of grabbing youngsters by the
hands and feet and tossing them up as high as they
could reach" And the principal 'supposes that while
ndulgng in of those pranks they let young Lub-
ben drop that his head struck the ground"
The result of that prank was the development of
meningitis, followed by and death And now
indignant citizens of Alameda are demanding a
thorough Investigation of the affair This is only
one of many that to light frequently in various
parts of the United States.
II is evident in considering fatality of this kind
that laxity in school discipline and management is
primarily blamable. II is not supposable of course
that the boys in the group who engaged in the prank
at Alameda thought for moment that they were
putting the life of their little schoomate in jeopardy
But what shall be said of the principal who admits
his knowledge of pranks cruel and brutal that in
this case death resulted?
The practice of hazing and all other school prac-
ces whereby individual pupils made to suffer for
of their fellows disreputable and bar
Pupils in the lower grade schools are eager
initiate those the higher levels and so the prae-
tce finds its way down in the at Alameda, to
pupils at the bottom of the educational ladder
Every American educator. from university president
to kindergarten teacher should endeavor stamp out
this disgraceful and cowardly practice.

SoUABBLE IN COUNCIL
OVER FIRE HOUSE SITE

To buy or not to buy a lot for a
fire engine house in the Sixth ward
was the question that confronted the
council at an adjourned meeting yes
terday afternoon.
The discussion revealed the fact that
nobody knows exactly what the situa-
ton of the city is in reference to the
proposed purchase. Councilman Hough-
ton recommended the purchase of u
lot some time ago and for one reason
or another objections were urged
against the purchase.
An agreement was finally reached
among most of the people interested
and deed was made out to lot OF
the O'Neil tract. Real estate agents
protested to the mayor that the lot
had been secured by misrepresenta-
tion and the mayor refused to sign the
demand.
The decision now seems to lie be-
tween lots and of the O'Neil tract.
The council finally passed a motion
requesting the mayor to return the
unsigned demand to the council. The
council will take final action Monday.

The Prohibition Question

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 6.-Editor Her.
aid: Permit me to kindly correct some
of the figures in this mornings Her
aid. You say that the Prohibition vote
in 1892 was 1,041,0 ,02S. 1t was but 49,
191. You say that last November our
vote was 2OS,914. 1t was 260,073
While these corrections may not
change your logic, yet they are cer-
tainly due to the faithful men who
have stood against the saloon curse.
You practically say that wherever Pro-
hibition has been tried it has proved
failure. In this you are certainly in
error. Whenever it has had a chance
it has proved grandly successful, as 1
am prepared to show If you will open
your columns to us.
Are you willing that our side of the
question shall have hearing in The
Herald? STEPHEN BOWERS.
The discrepancy between the recog-
nized statistical authority quoted by
The Herald and the figures submitted
by our correspondent is not material
to the main issue. The point made by
The Herald was that the Prohibition
party has lost ground within the last
dozen years. That fact is demon
strated above by DIR. Bowers. The
the courteous discussion of topics of
public interest, within reasonable space
limitations.
