CIVIC AFFAIRS

The city of Brookings, s. D., is
not doing very well with municipal
ownership, according to the Sturgls Rec
ord. The city owns the water and cleo
trio plants, the central heating plant
and the telephone. The cost is ABOUT
what other cities are paying and the rate
of taxation Is the minimum, so there Is
no apparent gain to the community IN
cheap service or reduced cost of govern
ment. The plants show an apparent ex-
cess of receipts over expenditures Of
$4,000, but without making any deduc-
stions for deterioration or investment
Wages are probably higher, the Record
says, tho the auditors reports reveal
nothing on the subject.
Mayor Johnson of Cleveland appears to
have become a cons ervative. He now
agrees with Mr.. :Dalrymple that all COM
munities are not good ground for public
ownership and affirms that experiments
should be made only after very careful
investigation.
Since the great fire Baltimore electors
have ratified bond issues of $4,000, 900
for a modern sewage system, new docks
and piers and park extension. In addi-
ton there are pending before the 1egis-
lature propositions for s13, 100000 more for
water supply, street improvement, new
schools, fire department and new parks.
These expenditures are expected to bring

from garages, where it is used for wash

CITY WITH A GREAT FUTURE
From Frank Leslie's Weekly


movement has started to annex
to Los Angeles a large part of the
county of that name, so as to take in
San Pedro, on the Pacific. Los Angeles
is fourteen miles from the Pacific on
an east and west line. The citys
nearest port, however, is San Pedro
twenty five miles to the south, on San
Pedro bay, an inlet of the Pacific. San
Pedro has one of the finest harbors on
the big western ocean, is the terminus
of Senator Clark's new railway, the
San Pedro Los Angeles e. Salt Lake,
and is also on Harrimans Southern
Pacific line. Famed as a health resort
for many years, Los Angeles is now
one of the Pacific slopes greatest bust
ness centers. Its population, 10000 in
1890 and 100000 in 1900, is probably in
the neighborhood of 225, 900 in 1906. OF
all the towns west of the Rocky noun
tains Los Angeles ranks next to San
Francisco in inha abitants, business i'm
portance and wealth. All the railways
of the Pacific slope, either by their
main lines or by branches, touch at
the Southern California metropolis. 1t
is growing faster than any other city
west of the Mississippi. In extent of
its bank clearances it ranks fifteenth
on the roll among the country's busi-
ness centers.
Some eastern papers reported that
Los Angeles was shaken UP at the time
the earthquake destroyed much of San
Francisco, Santa Rosa, Santa Barbara
and other towns on the coast. This was
an error Los Angeles is outside of
the earthquake zone. 1t was not
touched by the shake that hit most of
ing it. Much of the business of the
devastated cities is going to Los An
geles now, and more of it is likely
to go there in the future. Annexation
will give Los Angeles the outlet for ex-
pansion which it needs, and make it's
growth in the near future even more
rapid than it has been in the recent
past. BY taking in San Pedro 1t will
have one of the finest ports In the
country. The steamboat connection
which it already has with San Fran
cisco and other coast cities, by way of
San Pedro, will be Immediately and
immensely increased when that port
becomes part of the citys corporate
the two cities, now rapidly filing, is
built UP. Los Angeles wants steam
boat connection with Asia, with the
Atlantic coast of the United States,
and with Europe. The annexation of
Panama canal will give it chance
to realize all that ambition.

But much more singular case, an
exception which will have to be under
stood as proving the rule that New
Workers. are unduly lax in their moral
perceptions, is worth relating. Early
in 1904 we received notice from a
wealthy policy holder that his wife
had lost Jewels worth many thousand
dollars, and a sum of money in gold
and payment of claim for $4,000 was
asked.
1--WE investigated and learned that
the woman, rich, refined and moving in
society, had been in the habit of keep
ing her jewels in chamois leather
bag, which she sometimes locked in a
secret drawer and sometimes carried
with her suspended by tapes from her
waist.
lone evening, after returning from
some function, she took off the jewelry
she was wearing and put the pieces in
the chamois bag as usual. This bag
also contained certain number of gold
