ASIA FOR THE ASIATICS

The boycott against Americans and
American goods, the assassination of
American missionaries and the Boxer
uprisings in China have rapidly for
that which the jingoist would
at once declare casus belli. Citizens
from the yellow empire re-
port a condition of open and avowed
opposition to everything that pertains
to the United States and that a feel
ing OF hatred has developed in the
Orient that must be seriously consd-
cred. This wrath, 1t is alleged. has
grown out of the Chinese exclusion
act, which in it's enforcement has oc-
casionally subjected Chinese mer-
chants and travellers to insult, annoy
ance and humiliation.
Statesmen, however, are of the opin-
ion that the Chinese exclusion act
may be only an incidental cause-a
reason seized upon by Chinese poll
ticians to arouse and infiame the
masses. Back Of this, say the states
men. is the disturbing demand of rev.
olutionists for Asia for the Asiatcs."
The comparative ease with which lit
tie Japan whipped the alleged greatest
fighting nation In the world has de-
veloped marvellous ambitions among
the yellow races. II has shown them
what they can do, II they will. 1t has
awakened the sleeping giant" Of
China, has appealed to its public men
as an illustration OF the power they
might WELD in the worlds affairs If
they would.
And little Japan, grown "cockey" by
its recent victories, is nudging the
sleeping giant and whispering to it
to "go in and win" But recently the
Japanese government had the nerve
to twist the lions tail by eriticising
the army formations of Great Britain.
And reports come that Japan is work.

ment, with orders to double the pres
ent number Of its war vessels, in
Guiding the largest battleshlps afloat.
What does all this mean n not n pur-
pose to defend China or to establish
the Asiatic Monroe doctrine?
1t Is probably true, as merchants
claim, that we owe nearly all Of our
present trouble with China to the
British merchants, who have persist
emily denounced American goods and
innamed the chinese people against
the commerce of this country by
Haunting the chinese exclusion act.
In this the British merchant has been
playing with fire, for IL the Asiatic
bomb ever bursts, II the yellow horde
shall ever rise in its might of num-
bers and threaten to overflow the world,
the English speaking races will be
compelled to fight together. The stout
sons OF John Bull and the sturdy boys
Of Brother Jonathan will be found side
by side in the work Of pushing back
the Aslatic tide.
1t Is represented that there is some
alarm in Washington; that there is
hurrying to and fro in the army and
navy departments, and that diplomats
and ambassadors are shaking their
heads gravely over the situation.
Nevertheless this alarm has failed to
reach congress. which has just refused
to grant an urgent extra appropriation
Of 100000 for the army in the Philip
pines which had been requested by
Secretary Taft.
In the midst of all the rumors, how
ever, one important fact stands out
lumlnously, and that is the utterly de-
fenseless condition of the Pacific coast.
For years without number the people
and press of this section have appealed
to congress for a system of coast de-
Tense that would at least be adequate
to the care and protection of our ORR
entail trade. The only reply has been
more money for Podunk Rhode Island,
or for Coshaggin, Maine. We are now
supposed to be digging a canal across
the Isthmus of Panama for the ex-
press purpose of trading with the ma
tons of the Orient. What are we do
ing to protect that trade?
We need a greater navy at once. We
are urgently in need of coast defense
along the Pacific And if the whis-
pered rumors of a possible war with
China shall accomplish no other pur-
pose than that of arousing congress
to these twin necessities they will have
done tremendous good to this peace
loving nation.

Mayor McAleer is quoted as saying
that he Will give the city council "a
good talking to" about the board of
public works tomorrow morning. The
people are not interested in any pea
nut conversations between the mayor
and councilmen on this subject. They
have already heard enough to be con-
WINGED that talk is worse than folly.
What they demand is an agreement on
the selection of a board of public
works. Mr.. Mulholand warns these
foolish officials that the great Owens
river water enterprise is being
jeopaTdized by the deadlock, and all
the interests of Los Angeles are suf-
fering from a situation that is a shame
to the mayor and council and a dis
grace to the city.

Accommodation for the rapidly in
creasing number of school children in
Los Angeles is n serious and puzzling
question. The city Is growing so fast
that it seems impossible to meet more
than one-half the demands upon the
municipality. Assistant Superinten-
dent Monlux reports that with the
opening of the spring term of the pub
lie schools tomorrow more than 1900
new pupils Will be enrolled. The build
ings were already overcrowded and
halliday session were the rule in many
of them. Now the halliday session
must be extended TO all the outlying
schools. One year ago the people
voted $7SOOOO for additional school
buildings, but delay i'm issuance of the
bonds has postponed construction work
and now, with all the haste that is
possible, not one-half the buildings
will be ready when the September
term opens. And by that time our
necessities will be even greater than
they are at the present time. Los An
seles must build larger and quicker IL
it is going to keep pace with its own
development. Instead OF voting $780,
600 of bonds for school buildings we
should have voted nearer $7OOO,OoO,

CLEVELAND AND LOS ANGELES

The New York World doesn't often
put itself in a foolish position, but its
attitude in criticsing the Los Angeles
invitation OF Grover Cleveland to come
here and make his home it hits very
wide Of the mark, especially in it's at
tempt at sarcasm.
In the first place Los Angeles begs
to say that it did not start move
ment to capture" Mr.. Cleveland. Los
Angeles doesn't have to do that; too
many noted persons come here of their
own accord. Neither Is Mr.. Cleveland's
possible coming the basis for a real
estate boom; the movement in Los An
geles realty is great enough without
the city having to trade on the worth
of any mans name to excite buyers.
The fact is that Los Angeles is and
has been growing so rapidly, so sub
stantially and yet so conservatively
thai the east generally is unable to
understand it. Especially is this the
case in "little old New York" which,
the most provincial of all cities in the
United States. recognizes no civiliza-
ton west of Buffalo. When benighted
fasteners are informed, for instance,
that city figuring in the last census
in the 100000 class now contains 225,00
Inhabitants, more than doubling itself
In five years; that in four years it
has seen u greater volume and value
of new buildings than Minneapolis and
st, Paul combined, or than Cincinnati,
Louisville and New Orleans added to-
gether; that ii acquired $4,000 per-
manent inhabitants last year; that it
plans a water system to cost $23 200, 900
and will soon extend its borders to take
in 700 square miles-when these facts
are presented to effete fasteners of
narrow horizon and limited view they
are amazed. They cannot accept them
as true. Hence they rail and snort and
speak sarcastically of "booms.''
The thing for the New York World
and all other doubters to do is to send
out here and see for themselves. The
city is here, open to inspection. 1t

to disseminate information. Its mar
veous building record-twenty-fi five
miles of buildings last year-is substan-
tiated by its continuance in greater
volume today. It's rapid increase in
population is proved by the Unsuitable
demand for homes, rooms, habitations
of any and every kind, The basis for
its splendid prosperity is exemplified in
the rapid spreading out of its wholesale
and manufacturing districts and estab-
lishmentS and the accommodations
making for them. And its truly mar
velous development along every line
Is vouched for by official records open
TO whomsoever will read.
No. Los Angeles is not dependent in
any way for its progress and prosperity
oh the coming or staying away of
Grover Cleveland or any other great
man. All such are welcome here; the
city is the home of many distinguished
gentlemen of every sort and the new
corners will find congenial company, a
wonderful climate, admirable surround
ings and a hearty welcome. But as for
their making or breaking Los Angeles
--one who hints at such falsity or fool
ishness merely betrays his own ignor-
ance.
