OUR FUTURE BUILDINGS

A little more expense to capitalists for
tall buildings and a little less cost to
workers for their modest cottage
homes. That much of the new build
ing ordnance, at least, is generally
satisfactory. 1t will insure a greater
degree OF safety against fire in a class
Of structures likely to be filled with
tenants, and owners can well afford to
pay fraction more for building them.
The provision relative to one-story
cottages is important to all owners OF
such homes. Consideration of this
matter brought out some incidental
facts not creditable to the trainers Of
the old building ordinance. There was
an intimation that lumber dealers did
some lobbying when the former
ordinance was pending whereby heavier
timbers than are necessary were made
to enter into specifications for one
story cottages. However that may be-
the specifications for such structures
are changed now SO that there win be

MEXICO CITY, June 10.-The Mexi-

Tor the building up Of a big traffic be-
tween the two oceans across the
Isthmus OF Tehuantepec, has entered
into new contract with S. Pearson &
Son, whereby enlarged plans for the
construction of port works at Coatza-
coateos on the Atlantic and Salina Cruz
on the Pacific are to be carried out.
These ports are the termini of the Ma
tional Tehuantepec railroad.
The new contract calls for an ex-
penditure of $15,OOO,OOO during 1906 ana
$12, ,OOO.0 900 during 1907. The total federal
appropriation for the port improve

saving in the cost Of building that
class Of houses
The new building ordinance has the
rare distinction OF being highly com
mended by all interests, with the pos
sible exception of capitalists whose
buildings will cost little more than
before Architects, fire insurance men
and contractors are understood to be
fully satisfied with its provisions. The
building Inspector goes to the length
OF saying! 'T consider the ordinance a
model Of It's kind; l do not believe that
its equal exists in the country today"
OF the consequences he says: "Our
buildings will be such as will make
Los Angeles an ideal city"
The old buildings of Objectionable
class remaining will soon disappear
and Los Angeles will surpass it's sister
cities in modern architecture as II now
surpasses them in growth and pros

WELCOME SAN FRANCISCANS

Federal authorities have just taken
a census of San Francisco and in
round numbers, they find that it's pres
ent population, is 10000. Before the
earthquake San Francisco claimed
about 100000 inha bitants, but it was
generally admitted that the actual
number was $4,000 to 100000 fewer.
The governments count now shows a
dispersion of at least two-thirds, pos
sibly more.
OF these, the railroads took east
about 100,000-and most of these will
stay there; otherwise, they would not
have gone. The transbay cities are
figured to have absorbed not more than
10000. This leaves no fewer than
100000, at the lowest estimate, to be
accounted for elsewhere.
That many of these scattered ont
over California is certain. How many.
IL is guessWork to say. Many more.
however, came to Los Angeles, and
THESE are they with whom we are con-
cerned. They undoubtedly came here
to stay, and have added themselves
to the city's permanent population.
They were good citizens of the north
ern city, and would doubtless have
stayed there had not calamity driven
them out; they came here of their
own accord and will settle here be-
cause of expediency.
To these newcomers Los Angeles
owes duty. This city, being now
the undisputed metropolis of the two
thirds of the United States between
the Missouri river and the Pacific is
the most famed city in the world for
hospitality. To these ex-San Fran
clscans 1t should be especially cordial.
Many of them have come here TO 90
into business; these should receive
every encouragement and courtesy.
Others have come seeking employ
ment; every effort should be made to
ma congenial work for them. Let
the glad hand" be extended on all
sides, and let every one of these new
comers feel that he is welcome guest
and is to consider himself at home here
from now on, so long as he NAV care to
stay.

ST. VINCENT's
GRADUATING CLASS HEARS COM.
MENcEMENT SERMON
"christian Education and Its Meaning
to the Youth" Is the Theme of
the Rev. Father Mocabe, Vice
President

The forty-first annual commencement
week exercises were ushered in at ST
Vlncenfs yesterday morning with the
celebration of a solemn mass of thanks
giving. Rev. II. M. Murtaugh, c. M.
was celebrant; Rev. H. ]. O'Connor, C,
M, deacon, and ID. j. McHugh, c.. NJ,
subdeacon. The ten graduates and
students of the college attended the
services.
Rev. f. X. McCabe, c. NJ, vice presi-
dent of the college, delivered a forceful
sermon on christian Education and
Its Meaning to the Youth of Today."
Father McCabe dwelt on the necessity
OF a three-fold development of mankind
moral, intellectual and physical.
III was pointed out that the absence of
any one of these marks an imperfect
system Of education and means failure,
to q greater or less extent, in the
students after life.
Deplores CommerciaIism
The speaker deplored the tendency of
present day commercialism to minimize
the necessity OF thorough moral and
mental training, experience teaching
that all education which does not lead
to immediate pecuniary advantages is
too often neglected entirely.
Father McCabe stated shat Catholic
colleges always keep before their
students the necessity of the education
OF each individual part of the rational,
being, and the students are developed
and trained accordingly.
In conclusion, the speaker made
forcible address to the graduates. who
were present in a body. He told them
not to think that their education was
complete, for during their college years
they had been provided with all the ma,
terials, the principles and knowledgs
with which to carve successful future
for themselves.
He urged them to be faithful to their
responsibilities, to ever put in practice
the lessons OF truth, honesty and sim
cerity in all their dealings with their
fellow citizens.

KEEP CLOSE TOGETHER

Unseennly efforts BY certain persons
and newspapers to show that there has
ever been any desire or design on the
part Of the consolidation commission to
coerce any Of the surrounding towns or
cities into the proposed union with Los
Angeles city we're necessarily abortive.
Los Angeles city itself is unanimously
opposed to any movement or proceeding
that would not give to all our neigh
bors the freest and fullest expression
of their opinion, or that would not per-
init them to exercise their right to stay
out or enter into the consolidation
project.
This sentiment, known and appre-
ciated by the commission at every stage
and step Of their deliberations, actuated
them in preparing for consideration by
the governor the documents which they
desired him to read and understand.
If any other kind of document reached
the governor or the assemblymen from
this district It certainly did not have
the approval of the commission, or even
their knowledge of it's presentation.
The truth appears to be that Los
Angeles has nourished few persistent
and pestiferous enemies who are still
doing all they can to retard the prog
ress of the owens river enterprlse-the
greatest project ever conceived in the
west and one that will. when consum-
mated create Of Los Angeles and it's
neighboring cities the most beautiful
settlement in the world. What we
must have, from this time forward, is
the strongest Illustration of our pull
together" habit
Los Angeles city and county have
been made the wonder of the world in
progress and beauty by custom, early
fixed and unfalteringly maintained, of
working together upon all questions
that seemed to be for the common good.
Thus far on the road to the summit
there has been no wavering. 1t only
remains to weld ourselves in even a
closer bond of union, and move forward
together, as Of old.
The Owens river supply of water is
absolutely essential to the further
progress Of Los Angeles and all the
nearby towns and cities. Think what
it would mean If this enterprise should
by any untoward accident or felonious
design result in failure!
Citizens of Los Angeles are unitedly
in favor of the great project, and they
are not going to be turned aside by the
efforts of few who may consider that
their interests lie in a contrary direc-
ton. They are not going to permit any
'skullduggery" or attempted sharp
practice to interfere with their plans,
and this fact should be thoroughly
understood and appreciated by any who
may have designs in that direction.
No city or town involved in the
scheme of consolidation will be allowed
to be imposed upon, deceived, coerced
or f1imf1ammed. And Los Angeles her
self will see that fair play is given to
every municipality, every citizen and
voter in Los Angeles county. All
rumors and gossip to the contrary are
mere soap bubbles.

Ing Of any man in the world, not ex-
cepting the promoter Of wildcat mines.
And, like the promoter, he lives by
fleeing the credulous The tramp pros
pector is forever discovering a fabu-
lously rich prospect. Back from the
heart of the desert he comes, laden with
samples, supposedly from his new dis
oovery, but really picked up on the
dump of some established mine. Armed
with these it is little trouble for him
to enlist the help of some man with
more money than knowledge of the des-
ert to develop the mime"
His first demand is, OF course a
"grubstake." This will consist of q
burro, or two, If the man can be talked
out Of them; a sack Of beans, bacon,
flour, molasses and cooking utensils,
as well as other things needful in the
work he is going to undertake. Thus
provided, the prospector sets out, camps
at some well hidden water hole and
there spends his time until the grub
stake gives out. Then, providing him
self with still better samples of ore,
ne returns, reports to his "angel" that
there is yet more work to be done ere
the best ore can be reached, and, II
possible, talks him out of a second sup
ply of food. If the backer has not been
warned he usually puts up the $25 or
thereabouts necessary to outfit the
prospector. visions of coming wealth
held before his eager eyes the while by
the miner, and out the wanderer goes
again.. There are cases on record where
one man has thus been flimnammed
three times, but twice Is usually the
limit.
Then, somewhere in the interim be-
tween tXyo davs the tramp prospector
disappears, and that particular camp
sees no more of him until memories of
his dealings with this particular man
have disappeared. While the affair is
wearing off he is operating at some
other camp.

that he borrowed Winchester rifle re-
