DISSECTION OF CALIFORNIA

If Pomona succeeds in landing the
new county project for which it is fish
ing the present map of California may
not be recognizable few years hence.
The example of the pretty town with
the fruit name is likely to have many
followers. There are scores of other
ambitious California communities that
will be impelled to take the short cut
to fame by the county seat route.
If the bill whereby Pomona hopes to
lift itself to eminence related. only to
that town there would be no cause for
objection outside the territorial limits
directly concerned. But the bill is
general in its application, and 1t sug-
gests the alarming possibility of
county-slashing that would make the
state map resemble a crazy quilt.
The Pomona bill provides that a new
county may be formed anywhere in the
state out of raw material taken from
one or more other counties. The only
special conditions are that the act OF
territorial surgery shall not leave a
county thus operated upon with a popu-
lation of less than $4,000, and provided
also that the new county shall have a
showing of not less than 5000 inhabi-
tants. Another provision prohibits the
drawing of new county line nearer
than five miles from an old county seat.
With the success of Pomona's aspira-
tion as a starter and the plain sailing
outlined by the bill in question, there
would be no end to the cutting and
slashing of Californias counties. Am
bilious yOyung towns, not yet out Of
their urban knickerbockers, would see,
in the proposed law, glittering oppor-
tunities for becoming greater" without
the generally assumed requisite of large
population. The minimum of 5000 in
habitants would be easy of attainment
by adding to the population of almost
any little town a few odds and ends
from old counties.
There is one feature of the Pomona
bill, however, that should insure it's ul-
innate defeat because Of this provision:
A county from which territory may be
taken for this purpose IS required to
pay to the new county the value of the
new county's interest in the old
countys property, less n proportionate
share Of the common county debt"
Therefore, If Pomona succeeds in it's
aspiration Los Angeles county viii be
obliged to "chip in" heavily to set the
infant San Antonio county up in busi-
ness. The Pomona bill threatens end
less mischief, besides the Disagreement
of the state map. KIN 1t.

truth 1t Is we'll to remember that the
Bible is not a text book of science, but
rather the written word necessary to
the understanding of Gods relations
with man through Christ the Redeem
er. The proof of the inspiration Of the
Bible is insufficient In depending on
the Bible itself as a record of miracles
or prophecies, or in the determining OF
it's parts or the efficacy OF it's teach
ings. These prove only parts and may
be said of books not inspired. The in
trinsc value of a book would declare
as inspired many beautifully written
expressions of human thought; the ef-
feet upon human conduct the uplift-
ing of human character, the sweetness,
the gentleness OF expression would
make the Imitation of Christ as in
spired. To assure ourselves of inspira-
tion there is a necessity for divinely
commissioned teacher who, In the name
OF God and with Gods authority, can
declare what is Gods word. The Cath
Ollie believes that Christ, who came to
redeem, came also to teach and that he
invested with his authority the church
which he built upon his apostles and
that she, in his name, will speak to all
the nations the will OF God and declare
for all time what constitutes the writ
ten word OF God.
I'm the inspired word of God Is our
strength and consolation. Destroy in
spiration and Christ and Christianity
go with It,"

OUR GREAT STORES

Less than two years ago there were
only two big department stores in Los
Angeles. Today announcements are
blazoned OF the opening Of three more
big concerns of that kind about the
beginning of next month. In addition
thereto preparations are in progress
for two or three more such establish
ments in the near future.
The great department store offering
almost everything imaginable in the
line Of merchandise, Is the most con-
spicuous mark of modern city's
progress. The advantage Of concen-
tration OF many mercantile lines under
one roof becomes more and more ap-
parent with the growth of city. In
a town or small city the custom of
visiting several stores in a shopping
afternoon is not irksome, but in a big
and bustling city the hardness Of the
department store is highly appreciated.
Not only in department stores but
in the more restricted class of large
mercantile establishments Los Angeles
is abreast of the greater cities in the
east. The stores of this city which
specialize high class goods are equals
of the foremost establishments of like
kind in New York, Chicago or st.
Louis. In all grades of retail mer-
chandise, in fact, this city compares
favorably with the larger eastern cities.
And on every hand in the retail thor
oughfares of Los Angeles preparations
are in progress for the expansion of
all classes of mercantile business. New
store buildings of the highest modern
type are in course of erection and old
buildings are being transformed to
match the new structures. Even with
all this hustle of expansion the demand
for business locations keeps away
ahead of the supply and many seekers
for suitable business facilities are un-
able to find them.
Los Angeles is fairly started now
on it's era of great metropolitan busi-
ness in the line of down to date NAM
moth department stores, large estab-
lishments which make specialties OF
the highest class of goods, and the
whole class of modern shops that dis
tinguish the largest and most progress
sive cities.

THE GOVERNORS TEST

We soon shall know how sincere
James N. Gnlett was in his election
campaign promises that he would be
guided only by the public veal If he
we're made governor of California. He
will have an opportunity to demon
strate his promises IN his action upon
a bill Just passed by the legislature.
The bill in question, which The Her
aid opposed at the time Of its introduce
tion, for reasons then set forth, pro-
vides fixed minimum wage Of SO n
day for all labor performed on public
works. whether for state, county or
municipal purposes. The effect of the
measure, If approved by the governor,
will be to add perhaps one-third to the
average cost Of all public works in the
state, for the benefit, not of the indus
trious, but Of the incompetent and lazy
class Of laborers.
Public sentiment concerning this
outrageous bill is reflected in action
taken upon it by the board of supervis-
ors Of Riverside county. After q pre-
amble reclting that "the said bill arbi-
trarily fixes the wages to be paid on all
public works, the sum of SO a day for
eight hours labor" a resolution by the
board follows, thus: 1--WE, the board
of supervisors Of Riverside county, be-
licving that should such bill become a
law it's policy would materially hinder
impede and check public work of all
kinds. respectfully request and urge
his excellency the governor to veto
said bill"
The bill is only one Of the many per-
nicious measures which the San Fran
cisco union labor bosses are running
through the legislative mill during the
present session. Another conspicuous
one already passed and now in the
hands of the governor also affords a
test of those ante election promises.
The bill thus alluded to provides for
an arbitrary eight-hour days work by
all conductors, motormen and other
employees of street railway companies
If that bill becomes a law its obvious
effect will be to reduce materially the
wages of all employees concerned. Con-
ductors and motormen are paid by the
hour for their services and they are
supposed to average ten hours of work
per day. Give them eight hours work
instead of ten and their income will be
reduced correspondence, the loss being
one-fifth, or 20 per cent of the month;
wages.
The assumption that the railway
companies would stand that loss of &c
per cent, by paying their men the
same wages for eight hours that they
now pay for ten, is a fallacy. Any at
tempt to enforce a demand for ter
hours pay as an equivalent for eight
hours of work. by means of a strike
would be sure to end in disastrous
failure
These two bills are fair specimens OF
the measures which the labor bosses OF
San Francisco are forcing through the
legislature. The average member of
the assembly seems to believe that his
political existence depends upon sub
serviency to the San Francisco gang of
bulldozers, and he votes on measures
accordingly.

PASADENA. Feb. 24.-J. w. Haney,
chief Of the distributing department of
the local postoffice, tried to play the
Good Samaritan last evening, with the
usual result. Haney found a special
delivery letter which he knew should
be delivered, but he could not find a
special delivery boy to go with it. After
casting about for some time he decided
that he would take the letter out him
self and thus insure the quick delivery
which the government promises.

ploye was soon on his way, but he had
not gone far before the bicycle slipped
from under him and he was thrown to
the pavement with such force that his
