DOWN AND OUT

A nearly forgotten name is brought
to notice by this feature of a recent
dispatch from Washington: "a bill
providing that all corporations engaged
in interstate commerce shall be incor-
porated by the national government
and under its control has been intro
duced in the house by Representative
Hearst of New York" And thereupon
congress adjourned.
For the benefit of forgetful persons
it is proper to explain that the repre-
sentative above referred to is William
Ranalso Hearst, the same person who
was defeated for the goVernorship of
New York last fall by about 10000 plu-
rality, although his running mate on
the ticket for lieutenant governor was
elected. Directly after that election
william disappeared from New York
and was subsequently located in the
wilds of Mexico, whence came mani
festo from him TO the effect that he
would never NEVER again be a eandi-
date for public office.
The last flicker of Williams public
life, according to his averment, was the
presentation Of that bill in congress
on March /. At noon of March 4 will
liam ceased to be a member Of con-
gress. SO far as the public has knowl-
edge, his only official act during the
whole session was the offering Of that
bill at a time when, as he knew, he
might as well have ehueked 1t into
the waste basket.
But note tho character OF that bill

a Democrat, but the purport OF his bill

A DHPLoRABIH CONDITION

A reflex effect Of San Francfscos op-
position to Japanese labor is apparent
now. A dispatch from that city tells
of a serious shortage Of labor In ell
lines, with a consequent steady upward
tendency in wage schedules. In regard
to railroad building, where Japanese
labor is especially available, it is said
that "in some localities two roads are
competing to such an extent that they
are bidding against each other on all
lines Of their work"
While this condition Is hampering the
reconstruction of San Francisco and
Gripping general business, IL Is well to
notice the doings Of certain classes OF
laborers in that city composed largely
of persons of European nativity. Last
Sunday a large mass meeting OF labor
unlonists occurred in San Francisco for
the avowed purpose of expressing sym
pathy for the three miners who are on
trial in Idaho for the assassination of q
former governor of the state.
At that mass meeting, as reported, the
American flag was hissed by many par
ticipants and there were cries of "Pull
1t down." and Take it awayl" During
the meeting speakers made revolution
airy threats, and at It's conclusion the
French "Marseillaise" was sung In the
street The class who comprised the
meeting are the same who instigated
the trouble concerning Japanese edu-
cation in San Francisco and who have
put the city on record in opposition to
any labor not of the class represented
at the meeting.
The better element of San Francisco
population, who are striving to rebuild
the city and save the remnants of its
reputation, now perceive the blunder
made by pandering to the class repre-
sented at the mass meeting. BY allow
ing that class to gain possession of the
official machinery of the city, under the
leadership of Ruef and Schmitz. the
reputable class of the population have
become powerless.
There appears to be marked degen-
eracy in the present respectable class, OF
San Francisco's population as COM
pared with it's predecessors Of the early
"ffties" who found drastic means for
protecting the honor and good name OF
the city.

WOES OF THE STAMP COLLECTOR

Stamp collecting has grown from a
pleasant and harmless diversion to be
great and paying business From a
schoolboy's pastime it has developed in
the last dozen years or more to be a
mtllionaire's fad. From a desire to col
lect as curios the stamps of all nations
| it has evolved into a freak hunt; a
frantic search among rich philantelists
for misprints, first issues, or stamps
with some peculiar defect.
But there is a halcyon and vociferous
time approaching for the modern stamp
collector II the postmaster general
adopts the plan which he has under con-
sideration. 1t will keep every philatellst
on the jump, and compel the weather.
ones to enlarge the shelves of their
philatelic libarles. 1t is proposed in
Washington to issue distinctive stamps
for each of the six large cities of the
country which do the greatest postal
business. The next eighteen largest
cities, or the cities doing the next
largest postal business, are to have
stamps of identical design, but with the
name of each city emblazoned thereon.
For he balance Of the country stamps
OF uniform design, as at present, will
be printed.
business, are to have stamps Of identical
design, but with the name of each city
emblazoned thereon. For the balance Of
the country stamps of uniform design,
as at present, will be printed.
From the purely philatelic view, this
proposition is simply outrageous. It
means that stamp collections must be
enormously increased, with no particu-
lar value attached to the increase, from
the collectors point of view, Where, as
at present, one set of stamps is distinc-
tive of the entire United States, there
will be. II this plan is followed out no
less than twenty-five sets OF stamps to
use in this country There would be,
first the stamps for the six pre-eminent
cities, then eighteen sets for the minor
municipalities, and still another set for
the country at large
To be sure, this would make vast in
crease In the transactions of stamp
dealers. But Il would also have a ten

mental Democratic principle-nameiy,
opposition to the taking Of power from
the states and centralizing It in the
federal government.
Thus William gives the Democratic
party a feeble parting kick as he steps
down and out, in revenge for the awful
thud with which he was landed from
the party's brogans In California and
New York.
Having ended his political career,
which was so suggestive Of the rocket
that ascends dazzlingly and returns as
a blackened stick, William now will
resume his vocation of grinding out
pruriency and instigating vice and
crime through his several mills Of yell

WHY LOS ANGELES WILL
BE A VERY GREAT CITY

Close observers believe that Los An
geles is destined to become a very
great city-one of the greatest in the
world; and that a water supply for at
least a million people should be pro-
vided. This is not wholly local pride.
There are good grounds for, the opin-
ion. Four-sevenths of all the land on
the globe is washed by the Pacific
ocean, and four-sevenths of all the in
habitants of the globe occupy those
lands. They are in large part just
awakening to civilization, and their
trade is in it's inception. The west
coast of the United States is destined
to absorb a large share of that trade,
which means a large growth in popu-
lation. But the west coast Is a narrow
strip of land, averaging hardly more
than 100 miles in width. To the east,
as far as Denver, 1900 miles, there in
tervene deserts and mountain ranges
which act as a protective tariff and to
give in some degree the coast country
monopoly of that trade.
And this congestion occurs in two
overwhelmingly as we'll as longi-
tudinally. The Atlantic coast has
many excellent deep-water harbors,
but not so the Pacific. The Puget
sound gives Washington several. Port
land, 200 miles to the south, has one.
Then down the long ocean frontage of
Oregon and California, 1t is 800 miles
to San Francisco, the next one; and
thence 600 miles to San Diego, the last
one. Only four gateWays into the coun-
try in 1900 miles. Another is being
built and will be completed in about
two years at San Pedro, which is the
port of Los Angeles, fifteen miles south
of that city, and is destined to become
shortly part of the municipality. This
will make Los Angeles the port of
entry of vast commerce, and it with
other natural resources make the anti
cipation of a population Of a million by
no means credible.-Bronson c.
Keeler in Moody's Magazine for March.

THE BIG STORE ERA

In the whole line of human achieve
tury there is no feature more i'm
pressive than the change wrought in
retail mercantile business. Men and
women of today who are still on the
sunny side of two score years have
seen that business completely trans
formed. In manner, method and mag
nitude it has been entirely revolution
lied. The average retail store Of
twenty-five years ago, in city or large
town, is but rarely seen now.
The mercantile business has been a
leader in the evolution of the age to-
ward greater and grander results in
leading activities. To a large per-
centage of The Herald's readers it
seems not very long ago when they
first set foot in department store. But
the pioneer stores of that class were as
unlike examples witnessed today in
Los Angeles as a wheelbarrow is unlike
an automobile.
One of the highest modern type of de-
partment stores has just been opened
for business in this city. 1t was intro
duced to the public last Saturday night
in manner that gave an impressive
idea to tens of thousands of people
of the wonderful change that has been
wrought in the retail mercantile trade.
Not only are goods of almost every
conceivable line exposed for sale in all
our down-to-date establishments, but
there are accessories for the comfort
and enjoyment of customers and all
other visitors such as never were
dreamed of prior to a few years ago.
For instance roof garden, artistically
and cozily fitted with restful seats en-
powered in flowers and palms; an allur-
| ing playground for children, charming
views of the environs of Los Angeles
from mountain to sea, etc.
And all this indicates the evolution
of the mammoth department store to
date. What the future has to unfold
in that line must be left to the imagina-
tion. There are more such establish
ments now in progress Of building ir
Los Angeles and others are projected
The process of evolution will go on, an6
| the time may come when present at
| fractions in opening events will be de-
veloped by a free exhibition of grand
opera for adults and a whole circus fol
the youngsters.

Municipal Affairs" the monthly
publication issued by the Municipal
league of Los Angeles, pays this COM
plement to Mayor Harper in its March
numbers: 1.-TWO months of the new ad-
ministration have elapsed and Mayor
Harper is not debited as yet with any
very serious mistake, but, on the other
hand, he is to be credited with courage
and good intelligence in the great ma
jority Of his public acts. His APP
pointments we're the cause of no little
dismay among his friends and well
wishers, but the appointees themselves
have maintained a straight and even
course. The stand taken by the police
commission on all issues thus far
raised seems entirely in accord with
the best sentiment of the community.
At the outset of the administration
Municipal Affairs expressed high hopes
Of Mr.. Harper's success in the mayor
alty-hopes which have thus far suf-
fered no impairment" When Demo-
cratic mayor can win the plaudits of
the Municipal league he is doing quite

OUR NAVAL POET LAUREATE

Now that the government is carrying
a historian on the Panama canal pay
roll at $4,000 a year as secretary of the
commission, 1t is not surprising to
learn that the navy is to have sort of
poet laureate. This administration be-
ing literary itself, places good deal of
faith in literature. Thus we have had
William Allen White reporting what is
the matter with Kansas Mr.. Sinclair
pointing the way out of the beef jungle
and Miss Tarbell exposing the secrets
of Standard Oil. The fact that 1t has
been necessary to rebuke Poultney
Bigelow was not intended to reflect on
literature in general, since it has been
made clear that the president does not
admit that Mr. Bigelow has any claim
to literary pretensions except fertile
Imagination.
But to come back to the naval liter
airy bureau. 1t has long been source
of poignant regret that we have had no
Kipling to enthuse us to "pay, pay,
pay for greater navy Even the ship
subsidy crowd has felt the need of a
poet to declare that "the liner is a
lady" The imagination of the youth of
the land has not been fired TO adventure
on the high seas by militant verse, but
all this is to be changed. At the in
vitation of the president, or so 1t is
reported, James b. Connolly, the we'll
known author of sea stories, is to join
the United States navy, enlisting for
two years. He win be employed as a
clerk, but unusual privileges will be
accorded Mr. Connolly His mission,
OF course, will be known TO the admiral
and commanders and the officers IN
general, and In way he will have con-
siderable freedom He Will also have
a private cabin" In return he is ex-
pected to do for our navy what Kipling
has done for the British military and
naval forces.-Pittsbtlro Dfsnafch
