that reason the city authorities are
directly responsible for its existence and
personally liable for any damages which

A SNOWY BATHING TRICK

The early bather, as he f1oated on the
chilly pillows, had cigar in his mouth.
Two girls watched him from the beach.
The man lay on his back, with folded
arms, and the smoke shot from his
mouth in abundant clouds.
All of a sudden he gave loud cry
Hi, smokin under water!"
And with the cigar between his lips
he disappeared. He was gone couple
of seconds. Then he came up and 10,
the cigar was still lighted, still burn
ing freely. 1t smoked almost as well as
before.
Amt a wonder?" the man called to
the girls. Afterwards he explained the
trick to them.
LAS 1 went under" he said, IT shifted
the cigar unbeknowAst to you; put the
lighted end in my mouth. Then, as 1
came UP 1 shifted it again. Thus the
cigar kept lit. / didn't burn myself be-

THE TANNING OF TEDDY

There are signs and portents that
our impetuous over-certain and out
spoken president is bottling up the
Walls of his wrath and is becoming as
tame as a well-broken cayuse. There
are signs of this; and thereat the ma
ton marvels.
Not long agone our president was
wont to brook no hint of his own i'm
peccability. When he did thing it
was right, though all the powers of
the earth stood against it. When he
said a thing it was true. although a
score declare its impossibility. He
was so cocksure that he could do no
wrong that every act he did not ap-
prove was diabolical, and every one
who denied his statements was liar.
Vide Tillman, Chandler and a few
more.
But there has come a change over the
spirit of his dreams; the fire. seating
Teddy has been tanned. No longer doth
he shout 'Liar!" whenever he is con-
tradicted, or brand "Ananias" on
everyone who doubts his words He now
cooes as softly as any sucking dove.
On the rate bill it was that the
president tangled himself up hopeless
ly in his own devious changefulness,
and upon his exposed double-dealings
in that, he made a public exhibition
of his bad temper and lack of good
manners. 1t wasn't the first time;
from the occasion when he rip-snorted
at Judge Parker because the latter
told the truth about Republican cam
paign money grabbing. it has been
his one method of squaring himself.
But on the rate bill he made a bigger
spectacle of himself.
Now, however, comes evidence of a
change. On the beef-inspection bill he
goes off half-cocked, as usual, declar-
ing that he will none of it because it
limits inspection to certain hours.
When. Chairman Wadsworth of the
house committee tells him he (the
presidenD 'is wrong, very very
wrong" and quotes "such inspectors
shall have access at all times" this
puissant president-does he rise up and
yell ''Liar" again? Not he He re-
plies: II was in error!"
Verify, this is a change! And how
welcome! Would that the head of this
great nation had learned his lesson in
proper conduct ere he made himself a
mark for ridicule

on ON THE STREETS

There Is no essential difference Of
method between dripping oil and squirt
ing water on street or road. Tho
labor exrcnse Of single soaking is
trivial IN both cases. But the oil de-
posit IL properly employed, will insure
a fairly dustless street. i'm a residence
district, for nearly or quite a year. Tho
water deepest. will insCre cloud Of dust
at first, a coating Of mud directly after
ward AMI return Of dry and dusty
condition within an hour.
A barrel Of crude oil costs a greot
deal more than a barrel of water, but
in lasting effect the difference Is as a
year to an hour. The cost of oil in Los
Angeles. however is less than in any
other city in the world, being local
product. But Notwithstanding the
worthlessness of water sprinl ing as
compared with oil surfacing, and the
vastly greater cost per year Of the
water treatment, the water cart con-
tinues its impotent squirt in Los An
geles while the oiling concern rusts for
want of use.
Citizens have grown weary in protest
ing against the sef-evident folly of this
treatment of our residential streets. In
most of the streets the appearance of a
sprinkling cart suggests he saying
about the rarity of angels visits"
Even when the visits are reasonably
frequent, however, the result is unsat-
isfaotory.
The proposition to buy 10000 barrels
of oil for street purposes and to use 1t
at once comes as a ray of hope to the
long suffering community. The sue
cess of the oil s.-stem of street treat
ment is so we'll known to all citizens
that the delay in using it is beyond
comprehension.
Not only should the oiling of streets
be adopted generally wherever it is pos
sible, and adopted at once, but the
street railway companies should be
compelled to stand by their agreements
to do the oil surfacing on the line of
their tracks. There are important
residence streets which are retarded in
Improvement solely because of con-
ditions resulting from failure of the
railway managers to comply with their
obligations in this respect.

NOT DANGEROUS

A minister's small son had committed
some minor domestic crime, and, fear
ing the wrath to come, had hidden
himself in the barn. A vigorous search
was made, but his hiding place was I'M
discovered. and as the day passed on
his parents became alarmed. 1t was
not until dark that the small fugitive
reappeared, AMI by that time anxiety
had overcome all other feeling in the
fathers heart, so that his sons APP
pearance was hailed with relief rather
than anger
Presently taking the small boy on
his knee, the minister said gravely:
ut is true, my boy, that | could not
find you, but the Lord and the EVIL One
both knew where you We're"
ooh, wasn't worrying about them"
the unrepentant youngster responded.

shingles IL their hands. "-American

AN ISLAND FOR ANARCHISTS

Civilization, of course, cannot COM
pound the innumerable possible crimes
of a community devoid of government
by embarking on any such scheme. The
prime objection to the plan, morally,
is that the powers could not herd to-
gether a group of confessedly lawless
persons and let them kill off one an
other at their leisure. We must CON
tinue to deal with anarchical assassins
by the ordinary methods of law The
fact remains that the imaginary an
archist colony would afford a remark
ably interesting test of the theory of
no government. Why is it that the
philosophical anarchists and other
theorists of the Kropotkin stripe do not
start a movement to collect the breth-
rem of the red flag and make the ex-
pertinent? Is 1t because they are aware
that the first practical test would find
their theories crumbling and the colony
making it menaced with self-annihila-
ton Chicago Daily News.

ADJUSTMENT OF BIRTH RATE

A theory that suggests strange pos
cago. Its source is a typographical
union and the claim is made that it's
practical correctness has been demon
strated. The essence of the theory is
disclosed in this statement: "Since last
September, when the eight-hour
schedule was first put into effect in
the Chicago printing shops, there has
been a remarkable increase in the
birth rate among the compostors' fam
lilies" Reduced to figures, there is an
alleged showing of a ''15 per cent gain
in such births as compared with the
preceding ten months"
An interesting line of thought is sug-
gested by this domestic revelation in
Chicago. If the correctness Of the
theory is assumed the matter of excess
or deficiency in births may be adjusted
as readily as the raising or lowering
Of gas jet, All apprehension about
race suicide and depopulation may be
dismissed at once. The birth output is
adaptable to requirement or con-
venience as the case may be.
Now, If reduction OF the work day
to eight hours results in an increased
birth rate Of IS per cent, the ratio of
increase would go on, logically, in
proportion to the curtailment of work
hours. And finally. on the attainment
OF the perfect system of perennial holi-
days, as promised under socialism,
homes would swarm with children like
bees In a hive.
But what would be the effect of such
prolific increase in population? Ac-
Los Angeles herald., 1906-06-18

cordins to the Malthusian doctrine,
population has been for ages increas-
ing in greater ratio than means Of sub
s.steuce. Nautilus contended, also, that
vice and crime are necessary checks
to excessive Increase Of population.
Therefore, might not far greater
danger than race suicide confront
mankind II the Chicago idea we're car
ried out to the logical end?
Then how Important II evidently is
that the length Of the work day be
adjusted exactly right, so that there
may he neither paucity nor plethora
of population. Like the operation of
an alarm clock. according to the Chi
cago theory, the population figure can
be set for any desired result simply
by regulating the hours of labor.
