BRAIN IS LACKING
IN MORAL SENSE
PYR0MANIAC A PUZZLE TO THE
POLICE
Young Man Seems Utterly Unable to
Appreciate the Gravity of the
Crimes He Has Conn=
mtted
mitted

James I -omas Brain, degenerate and
self-confessed pyromaniac, was ar
raigned before Justice Rose yesterday
afternoon on charge of arson and his
examination set for March "a.
While his attorney is taking steps to
have Brain taken before lunacy COM
mission, the police will endeavor to
hold the man until he can be taken to
the superior court for trial. 1t is there
that a plea of insanity would lie, and
the police department does not intend
to give up the young man who has
struck terror into the hearts of prop
erty owners through his crazed i'm
pulses to set fires.
Brain faced the court with a vacant
stare and suffered a good deal while
talking. He was nervous, shifty-eyed
and trembled so he could hardly stand
erect.
Police Trace His Record
Brain confessed to his misdeeds Mon
day afternoon after being confronted
with statements made by his brother,
Albert Brain, and by shrewdly put
questions of Detective Davis and Capt.
Broadhead, both of whom had a COM
plete history of the boys actions for
all the time he has been in Los An
geles.
1T developed yesterday that Brain
was arrested at Venice under suspicion
of setting three fires there, and on his
release he came back to Los Angeles
to pursue his course of crime that has
resulted in thousands of dollars worth
of property going up in smoke.
When asked why he had indulged in
such expensive pleasures. Brain said
that he liked the excitement of watch
ing fires and seeing the engines rush
through the streets.
The detectives say that this 1S-year-
old degenerate is a puzzle to them.
Apparently bearing no malice toward
anybody and weeping as he told how 1t
hurt him to see horse burn up, Brain
seemed utterly lacking in moral sense
and smiled vacantly when asked If he
knew the gravity of the crimes he had
committed.
Started Fires in Chicago
Before coming to the coast the pris-
oner says he set several fires in Chi
cago. He was arrested and narrowly
escaped a long sentence, the states
attorney placing the case on file on
condition that the boy be sent to some
institution for the feebleminded
Instead Of going to some institution
the lad fled to California, and for a time
remained with his brother, AIoert
Brain, whose home is in Glendale.
The police regard such a young man
as the lowest type Of criminal and think
he should be put where he never again
can cause terror to city and destroy
valuable property mounting UP into the
thousands.
But for the prompt action of the fire
department and the quick discovery OF
the incendiary fires there would have
been enormous property losses and pos
sible loss of life,

FLAG DEF|LERS
ARE PUNISHED
ORIENTAL SHOOTING GALLERY
LICENSES REVOKED
Action of Chinese Who Used Stars
and Stripes as Targets Followed
by Prompt Work on Part
of Police Commission

No more will American-hating
Chinese fire on the flag of this coun-
try at the shooting galleries of v.
Morita 6141s North Alameda street, or
T. Yamashita, 711b North Alameda.
The police commission yesterday re-
voked the licenses of these two places
in a hurry when the chief of police
reported that he had found Chinese
riddling American flags in these places.
The two Japanese who conduct these
places made no effort to defend their
licenses and they can expect scant
courtesy from the commission i'll any
future requests they may make.
This was probably the quickest ac-
ton ever taken by this deliberative
body. 1t was only Monday night that
the police swooped down on these two
shooting galleries and rescued several
flags that were being perforated by
bullets fired by Chinese.
The case was Immediately referred
to Chief Auble and by him to the
police commission.
Looking Up Law
Both United States District Attorney
Lawler and Assistant City Prosecuting
Attorney Frederickson were busy yes
terday looking up the law appertaining
to such cases, and if there is any
chance to bring criminal action
against the proprietors it will be done
either by the federal authorities or by
the city.
Patrolmen McCart and Gilpin. who
at the risk of their lives tore down the
tiny flags which were a target for
Chinese bullets, endeavored to get a
complaint sworn out yesterday after
noon but were unsuccessful.
The shooting galleries at 6141a and
7O7ts Alameda street were closed up,
however. and the patriotic policemen
saved the flag from further desecration.
In view of the trouble with China
such outbursts in Los Angeles are sig
nificant, say the police, and further in
suits to the flag which protects them
may result in serious injury to the hun
dreds of Chinese in this city.

DEMOCRATIC COMPROMISE.

The organ Of the Mormon church
Democratic political quorum carries a
cartoon on its front page showing gi-
gantic Democracy announcing 20 the
politicians: 81 II just compromise and
beat you both meaning the American n
party and the so-called Republican
party, That is a super candid announce
ment Of the usual attitude Of the
Democracy in Utah-compromise and
win And the day after election the
same Democratic organ should contain
a cartoon. showing the shTiveled
Democracy uttering the sentiment: 81
COMPROMISED ard lost such being the
usual result.
The Democracy Of Utah in 1895
nominated an apostle for Senator and
President Brigham H. Roberts for Con
gress in order to gain Mormon support;
and then TO compromise with Gen
tiles it reconvened its convention and
declared against the use of church in
Huence in politics.
The Democracy of Utah in 1897 had
control of the Utah Legislature and
Moses Thatcher, then deposed apostle,
was the almost unanimous choice of
his party in this State for United
States Senator. The campaign had
been waged unou the expectation that
ne woul be elected Il his party should
car, the State. But as Mr.. Thatcher
waq no longer church magnate, and
was strongly opposed by the hierarchy,
the Democracy compromised with
the church by electing another man to
the Senate.
The Democracy of Utah in 1895 still
stood by. the principles of its re.
convention, which were pre-
tendedly anti-church influence; and IN
order to compromise with the Nor
mon element it nominated again for
Congress President Brigham Fl. Roberts,
who, IN the meantime. had made his
peace with the church by an abject sub.
mission.
The Democracy OF Salt Lake City
in 1908 was largely inclined TO place no
municipal ticket in the Geld in order to
protest in that solemn way TO the Ma
ton that the Mormon church was ruling
the political destinies of this State; and
il compromised - by letting the
church name q candidate and electjng
to the ulayorslty church Democrat.
The Democracy OF Utah in 1906 pre-
tendedly stands upon the American
party ground of no church influence in
politics; and yet il accepts IS It's spokes-
man President Brigham II. Roberts, now
in full fellowship with the hierarchy,
aud applsuds his declaration that there
is no church influence in Utah to oppose.
And this last compromise repre-
sents the attitude of the Democracy of
Utah. It is against church influence,
hut there is 10 church influence to be
against.

THE NAME.

Industrial Utah, paper published IN
Ogden, knows the quality of that pre-
tended patriotism which arimates the
church political quorums. 1t calls at
tertion to the fact that the American
party is now being called. by some of
the Smootites, the Amerikearns -
party, ana it quotes the fact to demon
strate that the church political allies
and Guonms have very little compre-
hension of the word American.
