Mrs. Olivas, Mrs Balla and Miss
Emily dAranzett.
and finally Supervisor Alexander took
a hand in the affair and poured forth
a torrent of denunciation upon the
heads of the corporation attorneys.
Alexander Is Angry
You deserve no consideration at the
hands of this board" he declared. I'VE
have been in session here for fourteen
days. and now, on the last day, you
come before us with more work than
we have accomplished in all that time.
You know that we must complete our
work by Monday night and that we will
have no time to verify your claims.
you should have no more considera
ton that a poor man." continued Alex
ander. Last year. when the time for
the boards work expired, my desk was
piled high with petitions for reductions
which | had not had time to investi-
gate. They We're from comparatively
poor men and they We're denied. You
deserve no better treatment. You could
have made these applications a week
ago. Why didn't you do it?
Your present methods are a repeti-
ton of those of last year. In 1905 you
also appeared before the board on the
last day of its session and asked for
reduction in your assessments. Your
request was granted at that time sim
ply because the board did not have the
courage to denounCe you and your
tricky methods. You have had ample
time to appear before the board, and
your failure to do so has forfeited your
claim to consideration Your methods
are an insult to the public and | insist
that your requests be turned down.
Dunn Makes Reply
Mr.. Dunn replied that the interests
which he represented had handled this
question as eXpeditiously as possible
and denied any attempt to resort tc
tricky methods. After some discussion
all of the requests of the Huntington
interests for reductions were taken
under adVisement by the board.
The franchise of the Pacific Electric
company was assessed at 81 ,92S, OS5. The
company asked that it be reduced &c
1856 .975. Rolling stock, assessed al
S276, $40, should. Mr.. Dunn explained
be reduced to $242. 1885, while reduc-
ton of about $lS5,000 was asked in the
! assessment on machinery and reduc-
tton from $150,000 to $132 500 was sought
on improvements. Other requests fol
reduction We're made as follows: Los
Angeles & Redondo railway, rolling
stock. from $44S10 to $S9, ,450; Los An
geles railway, franchise. S,97l.615 tC
! 81 ,04O, $40; machinery, $26I6l5 to $21 1000
Los Angeles Interurban, franchise
$519 100 to $21942
In addition to these demands peti'
tions were presented asking for consld'
erable reductions on values of realty
| held by the different Huntington com
panies, by the power companies, etc.
Applications of the Pasadena Lane
and Water company for substantial
reduction i'm its assessment on the
grounds of excessive valuation was
! taken under advisement, Walter l.
Wotkyns, vice president of the com
pany, explaining that the assessment
s~ceeds by $6S.S1O the aggregate value
| az the company's stocks and bonds.

Sluggish Liver Described.
How Pe-ru-na Relieves
Such Cases

A sluggish liver is brought about
In the following way: There is
catarrhal condition of the mucous
This catarrhal Condition spreads
downward to that portion of the ALI
mentary canal Just below the stom-
ach known as the duodenum.
Into the duodenum empty the bile
ducts These bile ducts are lined
with mucous membrane continuous
with the mucous membrane of the
duodenum. The catarrhal infia m
nation therefore Era'iuaiiy reads
from the membranes of the stomach
and duodenum into the bile duets.
This thickens the mucous mem
branes and clogs up the ducts. The
bile is then turned back into the
liver and the whole circulation of
the liver impeded. producing what
is known is a sluggish liver.
Cathartics bring only temporary
relief. They slush out the liver. for
the time and relieve this sluggish
ness, but Ii has been the universal
experience of mankind that the slug
gishness will return very quickly.
The only permanent relief is OBJ
tained from course of treatment
that tends to nIIny the catarrhal i'm
Hammation. Thousands of people
have found Peruna to be such rem
edy. 1t removes the cause of the
sluggishnesS of the liver by remoV-
ing the catar-

TnUigoroted disagree e a b e
symptoms are
caused by a sluggish liver. Listless-
ness. an all tired-out feeling, lack of
energy, confusion of the senses,
sleeplessness. yellow skin, coated
tongue-these are a few of the
symptoms produced by sluggish
liver.
The condition of the stomach and
liver above described has been for
many years denominated by Dr.
Hartman as systemic catarrh.
Patients of this kind are generally
supposed to he afflicted with ma
Iaria. Quinine. alternated with

AUTOIST WILL
CHASE AIRSHIP
UNIQUE RACE is SCHEDULED TO
POMONA
Route Is Not Made Public, as Con-
stables Might Interfere With
Progress of Steamer Over
the County Roads

Automobile and airship will contest
for supremacy today when the big
White steamer, driven by Capt. H. d.
Ryus. and the Man Angel, invented by
Alva Reynolds and manned by George
F'riSbie, will race to Pomona from
Chutes park for wager of $4,000
Each of the contestants posted $1,000
with The Herald when the race was
to take place July 4, but owing to
difficulties encountered in filling the
gas bag of the Man Angel with gas
of suitable quality on that date, Capt.
Ryus agreed to postponement of the
race until today.
At $3.50 this afternoon from the sta
dunn in the rear of the Chutes the
ater, the start of the race will take
place, and the flying machine and the
big White touring car will begin the
dash that will mean prize to the
victor not only of money, but also of
reputation.
The route that will be taken by
Capt. Ryus has not been made public,
for the reason that the county officials
would probably station constables
along the road to arrest the driver of
the machine should he exceed the speed
limit, for although Judge James pro-
nounced the state law in regard to
speeding automobiles in cities having
freeholders' charters imperative in
Los Angeles city, it is perfectly APP
plicable to cases outside the city limits.
and the watchdogs of the county law
would render the attempt to make high
speed of no avail.
If the wind is against the airship,
the race cannot take place, as no air
ship ever made could fly against the
wind, but should favoring breezes blow
a pretty contest should result
In the automobile with Capt, RyAs
will ride Alva Reynolds, who will
watch the progress of his aerial craft
from the cushions of the White steam
er, and a Herald representative,
George Frisbie, who has been the
aeronaut Of the Man Angel on all of its
flights, will act in that capacity today

Tainted Money.

And so the juvenile court workers Of
the country have turned down John D.
Rockefeller's 100000 because it is
tainted, and will struggle along with
out the aid of the Millionaire in their
work of regenerating the tough youth
of the country.
That is about as narrow as it is pos
sible for human being to get. It is
pin-headed proceeding altogether.
It may be that John D. Rockefeller
is trying to purchase seat in heaven.
It may be that remorse, a something
that gnawing deep into his heart, is
forcing him to give up money for good
works; it is entirely possible that he
wants to help purely because of his
keen sense of the needs of children.
Anyway, he is willing to help, to
give money in bales and bundles, and
if there is faint attached to those
dollars the surest way to laundry and
cleanse them is to consecrate them to
works of humanity.
The crime of the age is not politics,
graft, trust breeding, rebates or
bribery.
The worst crime in this country to-
day is the failure to afford all children
an opportunity to grow up educated,
law abiding, healthful men and women.
We persist in expecting flowers to
grow on dunghills, and we leave it to
scattered few good men and women
to grapple with problem that is 60
ing to need: all the money. all the
prayers, all the efforts that can be
secured to work change for the
better.
Surprising John D. Rockefeller's
contribution would save few of the
daughters of the slums from brothel
lives and make them respective wives
and mothers. Surprising these tainted
dollars were used to transform cigaret-
smoking candidates forterms in prison
into strong men.
It can be done. It is being done in
small in every city where the moral
cleanliness has taken root.
Why the dirtiest dollar John D.
ever wrested from competitor would.

when it came from the mint
Let's be sane. Let's hope that a
mighty something will move Rookie
Teller to turn over ten times five mil

PAY FOR BURNED ELEVATOR
Henningsen Agency Makes Prompt
Settlement.
Bingham Bros. Get $4,000 and
All Of the Salvage.
Loss is Paid Within Four DAYS
After Building Burns.

On the Sd of July N. Henningsen
turned over to Bingham Bros. $4,000
being the full amount of the insurance
carried on the elevator in two compa-
MES Of his agency, both old-line com
panies.
The building was totally destroyed
by fire on the night Or rather in the
early morning of the 10Th of June and
the loss reported to the companies the
same day and within as short time
as it is possible for mail to get from
the head Office of the company to this
city the loss was paid.
1t is probably the largest single loss
that has been suffered in this city for
many years and the amount of this one
fire goes far towards wiping out the
accumulated premiums that have been
paid to the companies for many years.
Mr.. Henningsen is pleased over the
promptness of his company as much
because of the relief it affords Bing-
ham Bros. in enabling them to pro-
coed with the building of new eleva-
tor as for any good it may do him.
Since the loss was complete all the
salvage, which is principally damaged
grain belongs to Bingham Bros. who
are converting it into as much cash as
they are able to by selling it for feed
and for what other purposes damaged
grain is used. In this way they will
be able to realize little from it.
Mr.. Henningsen has received the fol-
lowing letter from the firm which ex-
plains itself:
N. Henningsen
New Ulm,
Dear Sir
Allow US to commend the promptness
with which you settled our fire loss
which occurred onthe Doth day of June,
and wherein we received indemnity to
the amount of $4,000. The adjust
ment being made four days after the
fire is an act that commands our re-
spect and to your agency a recommen-
dation where further words are unne-
cessary. Very truly yours,
Bingham Bros.
In calling attention to the prompt
ness of the settlement of this claim Mr..
Henningsen publishes the following:
To my present and prospective Gus
toners:
J. take pleasure in informing you
that the Bingham Bros. elevator fire
loss amounting to $40, 900 was adjusted
and settled through ny agency within
four days after the fire; we have the
confidence for reliability and prompt
ness of the largest firms of this and
other cities, we represent none but the
largest reliable companys in our vari-
Gus branches mo doubtful ones, nor
companys which are operated at the
expense of the assured for the purpose
of CRAFTY, we serve you honestly; by
entrusting your business to us you
make no mistake, remember your fire
insurance policy, any day, may be all
you have, see to it that it is good.
Respectfully,
N. Henningsen,
Insurance Agency.

The Pure Food Law.

People applaud the passage Of the
pure food law without knowing exact
" what it il. It has been before con-
rress 50 long and ohopelessly; it was
passed in such sudden haste at last
under the stimulous of the Chicago
packing house exposures and the de-
mand for healthy meat, that people
were Indifferent about it till too late
10 examine it. The enacted law is new
10 nearly all.
In general it penalties the adultera-
sion and misbranding of foods, drugs
and confectionery. To manufacture,
sell or offer for sale any article in vio
lotion Of its provisions is a misde-
meanor punishable with fine of $500,
one years imprisonment.or both in the
courts discretion for one offense. For
every subsequent offense the fine is
81 900 and the Imprisonment may be
repeated.
Both adu1teration and misbranding
are given abroad meaning. Adultera-
ton includes the removal of any valu-
able or nutritious element in any food,
drink, drug or CONNECTION, the substi-
tuition OF any inferior element, the ad-
dition of any substance to improve ap-
pearance or conceal decay that is either
injurious in itself, injurious in lower
ing the natural strength of the article
Or deceptive as to it's strength, quality
or condition, and the inclusion of any
element in state of decay or natural
ly unfit for food.
Misbranding is defined as any in
furious deception or concealment in
the label of prepared food, drugs or
CONNECTIONS. Every false label is pen
allied, but formulas of manufacture
need not be put on packages unless
they contain poisons. The section the
manufacturers fought hardest requires
shat the quantity or proportion of any
opium, cocaine, morphine, chloro.
form, eucane, hasheesh, alcohol OF
any of several other poisons must be
plainly stated on the outside of the
package.
The law is to be enforced by the de-
partment of agriculture and applies tc
imported as we'll as domestic articles
Besides penalizing manufacture anc
sale, it Furnishes with fine and impri.
sonment the introduction of forbidden
articles from abroad Or into one state
from another. It needs only vigorous
enforcement to be great success

There is no really great national

birth of the republican party or upon
which succeeding campaigns have been
fought. 1t has come to that time in
the history of this country when about
the only issue at this time aside from
what the socialist party has to offer
is the choice of men. Men who have
character and are worth something in
the scale of moral worth. There is so
little, difference in the principles of the
two parties contesting for supremacy,
that an unlabeled platform of either
would confuse the other.
