NOTICE TO LIQUOR INTERESTS

W. IOE ~ LlNlUOh TN - EhES >
When the Prohibitlonists made their
last assault upon the liquor interests Of
this city with view of closing the
saloons, The Herald espoused the side
Of existing conditions, which, bad as
they may be. are yet better than those
Of any other metropolitan city in the
country.
But The Herald will not stand for any
extension OF the saloon territory or
zone Of this city.
And The Herald will not stand for
Sny Increase in the number of saloon
licenses.
The very fact that we have a saloon
zone In Los Angeles and that the num-
Der of licenses has for many years been
limited TO 200 constitute the strongest
reasons on the part of sensible and
practical people why there should not
be any change. either for or against
existing conditions.
Los Angeles. holding the saloons in
check by number and territory, is able
to control them and keep them within
bounds. But the liquor interests should
have no more favors. They must real
ize that their business is only tolerated
under circumstances which may pre-
vent it from becoming a public men
ace to safety and health. They must
know that the citizens of Los Angeles
will not consent to hand out more fa-
vors that would tend to imperil the
peace and good order of this commu-
nifty
passed by the expiring city council
which should be vetoed by the mayor
if the court shall finally dismiss the
temporary injunction restraining the
mayor from signing them. One Of
these ordinances reduces the number of
petitioners for a saloon license from
two-thirds to a bare majority of the
resident property owners: the second
provides for saloon between Second
and Third streets on Broadway, and
the third permits wholesalers to sell
liquor in pint bottles.
All three of these proposed ordinances
are vicious and should be withdrawn.
They tend to enlarge the power of the
saloon interests and extend the influ-
ence of the liquor evil. The Herald is
opposed to them.
Petitions are already on file asking
large extensions of the saloon zone in
every direction-east, west, north and
south. The Herald, in common with the
citizens generally, is opposed to any
and all such legislation. 1t is dan
gerous proposition. To grant the petit
llOH WOulu De W give HiOi0 anu lilOl o
latitude to a business which every
body knows is productive of more evil
than good.
The Herald has maintained and still
maintains that limited number of sa-
looms, located in a limited and well-de-
fined territory, are among the so-called
necessary evils of a metropolitan
city. At any rate, they can be tolerated
with much more complacency than
lot of Kansas drug stores scattered all
over the city.
1t is, after ALL question of tolera-
ton. Ard the limit of such liberation
is easily reached in a quiet and peace
loving city such as Los Angeles.

The Christmas Tree

The problem of the Christmas tree
Should very easy be.
Here are a few suggestions. and
They're offered to you free;
The carpenter a plane tree likes.
The dentist favors gums;
The sugar man a maple Graves,
The politicians, plums.
The oil man sticks to olives, and
The lovers love the pine;
The swimmers gather at the beech;
For pets, the dogwood's fine.
For doctors. try the sycamore;
For dudes. the spruce should do;
One hardly thinks the office man
Likes lemons now, would you?
Tobacconists the smoke tree boast
The winter bellies like FIR;
Bad jokers take the chestnut. but
It's orange tree for Herl

Thousands of Women ARE MADE WELL AND STRONG
Success of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound Rests Upon the Fact that lt Really Does Make Sick Women We'll.

Thousands upon thousands of Ameri- can women have been restored to health by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegeta- ble Compound. Their letters are on file in Mrs. Pinkham's office, and prove this statement to be 8 fact and not mere boast.
 Overshadowing indeed is the success of tbis great medicine, and compared with it all other medicines and treat ment for women are experiments.
 Why has Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege- table Compound accomplished such wides spread results for good?
 Why has it lived and thrived and done its glorious work for quarter of a century?
 Simply and surely because of it's ster- ling worth. The reason no other med icine has even approached its success is plainly and positively because there Is no other medicine in the world so good for women's ills.
 The wonderful power of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound over the diseases of womankind is not be- cause il is astimulant-not because it is s palliative, but simply because it is the most wonderful tonic and recon strnctor ever discovered to act directly
  CURING disease and displacements and restoring health and yigor.
 Marvellous cures are reported from all parts of the country by women who have been cured, trained nurses who have witnessed cures and physicians who have recognized the virtue in Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Con- pou, d, and are fair enough to give cre6 1t where it is due. If physicians dar d to be frank and open, hundreds of them would acknowledge that they prescribe Lydia E. Pink hams Vegetable Compound in severe cases of female ills, as they know by that it will effect a cure.
 Women who are troubled with pain ful or irregular periods, backache, bloating Cor fiatulence), weakness, dis inflammation, ulceration, that bearing-down" feeling. dizzi- ness. faiptness, indigestion, nervous prcstration or the blues, should take immediate action to ward off the seri- ous consequences. and be restored to health and strength by taking Lydia F.. Vegetable Compound. Any way write to Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass. for advice. It's free and always helpful.

ARIZONA BOYS MAKE LARGE
 WINNING
Herrick Brothers Interested in Big Commercial Deal
 in Nevada.

James Herrick left on the after noon train for Ely, Nevada. Mir. Her rick is going to Ely to close up large deal in which he and his brother, H. Clay Herrick. formerly of Douglas, are interested. The deal from which the Herrick brothers will realize a hand some profit is a result of the opera tions which the younger brother has been carrying on in Nevada.
 H. Clay Herrick is the son of one of Cochise county's pioneers. He start ed in business at Douglas few years ago when that town was founded, and by sheer force of will and ability he soon became one of the leading citi- zens of that town. He left Douglas about two years ago, and went to Ne yada at the time that the big boom was on at Tonopah. He operated in Tonopah and was successful. He went to Los Angeles from Nevada; but when the camp of Ely was opened up young Herrick saw the great business opportunities. He went to Ely and started in the real estate and general business in April. Through out all of his operations his brother. James Herrick, of Bisbee, has been his partner.
 The town If Ely has grown to be city of ten thousand inhabitants, and can boast seven of the wealthiest gold mines-in the United States. Herrick is the foremost real estate and commer cial man in the city. and has just clos cd deal with some eastern capitalists to start large commercial company. The deal is about to he consummated. and James Herrick left for Nevada yes terdav to be present at the fnrmaiInn of the new company. He will return to the city in about fifteen days, but t is probable that he will return to Ne vada in the fall and take up an official position with the new company.
