HHARSTs avn lNELUrNcR

Concerning the graft exposures In
San Francisco, It should be recalled
and kept always in mind that the
present shocking condition of affairs
lat the Golden Gate Is largely charge
able to William Randolph Hearst and
his abominable Examiner, which en-
couraged these villains, and which
fought and abused every honest man
who opposed them or their purposes.
An examination Of the columns Of the
Examiner since the first Schmitz cleo
tion will readily verify this statement.
II must not be forgotten. too, that
Hearst paid the expenses OF this man
schmitz to New York and accepted his
services-speaking night after night in
behalf of his candidacy for congress
and boasted proudly of schmitz' friend
ship and support. Hearst and the Ex-
aminer also divided his patronage with
him and a large number of the men
placed in office by Schmitz were on de-
mand Of the Examiner.
Now that the explosion has occurred,
Hearst, according to his custom, is the
loudest in cry after his former political
partners. He is trying to conceal facts
by pretending that the grand jury has
discovered that the preceding board Of
supervisors-the majority of which were
Democrats-did questionable things,
which is utterly untrue. The members
Of the present board of supervisors
who were members of the former board
are all Republicans, like Boxton and
Sanderson. These are the men whom
Gavin McNab had to fight in the in
terest Of honesty and decency, but they
were in the minority.
The Democrats for eight years shaped
the policies and measures of the San
Francisco board of supervisors and no
scandal occurred, nor was there the
slightest taint of dishonesty. 1t was
not until Hearst and his political part
ners threw out the Democrats and put
in labor agltators that the trouble
began.
The defeat of Mayor Dunno in Chi
cago-if he is defeated-can be properly
laid to the door of the Hearst methods,
which were enough to disgust decent
people and send them scampering away
to support a ticket that was at least
known to have no sympathy with Will
liam Randolph Hearst or any of his in
terests.
The Hearst influence is a pernicious
evil in public affairs, no matter whether
exerted in New York, Chicago, San
Francisco or Los Angeles.

WIFE NUMBER ONE
TO PRESS CHARGE
Although Local Court Released Hus=
band, Bigamy Case Will Be
Prosecuted in Arizona,
She Declares

Because his alleged second marriage
was solemnized in Arizona, the charge
of bigamy against H. T. Ammon was
dropped when the examination was
completed yesterday afternoon in JUS
tice Chambers court.
According to evidence shown yester-
day, Ammon was married in Chicago
in 1887 About two years ago Ammon
left his wife in Missouri and came to
California. They corresponded regu-
larly for more than a year, and then
stopped.
The first Mrs. Ammon testified that
she came to Los Angeles last Thursday
and found Mr.. Ammon living with an
other woman on West Thirty-e eighth
street. Learning they had been mar
ried she at once complained to the
police and a warrant was issued for
the mans arrest.
The fact was brought out yesterday
in the examination that Mr.. Ammon
had married the second time in Ari-
zona, and as the court has no jurisdic-
tion over an act committed out of the
state Ammon was dismissed.
AS the first Mrs. Ammon was far from
satisfied with the result she said she
was going to Arizona and swear out a
warrant for Ammon and see what the
authorities of that state would do about
the affair.

CLEAN up STREETS
FOR FIESTA TIME
BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS
ISSUES ORDERS
Defective Sidewalks Must BE Re-
paired-spaee In Front Of New
Buildings Must Be Kept
Clean

Keep your sidewalks clean and in
repair for the Fiestal
The order went out yesterday from
the office of Inspector Of Public Works
d. X. Edwards that all defective side
walks must be patched up, holes and
depressions repaired and the front
space cleared of all distractions be-
fore May /. The order will be rigidly
enforced all during May.
Inspectors OF the board of public
works will go through the business
districts today to notify all owners
where defects exist on the sidewalk, to
see that. the pedestrians are protected.
Inspectors of the building department
will also notify contractors and others
interested in new buildings that by
May 1 all materials that now litter and
cover the street space in front Of new
buildings must be moved back of the
building line for at least the first week
in May. Streets and walks must be
cleared during that period
The department wishes to make a
good impression on visitors. 1t is ar
gued that in no respect will faults be
noticed more strikingly than in the
condition Of the streets.
The board recently got permission to
employ twenty extra teams, wagons
and drivers in the business section and
load after load of dirt is being hauled
away.
Two new four-horse scrapers have
been put to work this week in the
downtown section and if necessary
eight more two-horse scrapers will be
detailed on the downtown cleaning
work.
Men who cannot do a good days
work have been laid off or discharged
from the street department, so that
the cleanup order can be rigidly en-
forced.
This action is in keeping with the
spirit of resolutions of the council and
with requests of the chamber of COM
merce and other commercial organiza-
tions which are anxious that the best
impressions that Los Angeles people
can make on visitors shall become ap-
parent next month.

A FOREIGNIZED COUNTRY

Jealous native Americans will think
they see cause for apprehension in the
population statistics just given out by
the census bureau. The figures indi-
cate a rapid increase in the number
of inhabitants of the United States, but
whence comes the bulk of increase?
According to estimates based on CEN
sus reports from several states, the
population of the United States in 1906
was S2.575,193 and in 1906 it was 49, 941, =
So The total increase for the year,
therefore. was 1,366,S17. Turning to the
immigration report, we find that the
number of immigrants in 1905 was L.
O27, ,421 and in 1906 1t was 1,10O,735. The
estimate for the present year based on
the number of arrivals during the first
quarter is 100000.
Deduct the number of immigrants in
1906 from the number representing the
total increase in the country's popula-
ton and the figure is 265,5S2. That rep
resents the American element of in
crease-less than one-fourth the num-
ber of foreigners who poured through
our ports. Taking into account the i'm
migration estimate for the present year
it appears that the foreign element in
our population is increasing nearly five
times as fast as the native element.
Do these estimates give the ominous
indication that this country is under
going process of rapid foreignization
and that the time is not far distant
when the American element will be in
the minority and perhaps subservi-
ent factor?
By no means. The immigrant of to-
day will be proud naturalized Ameri-
can five years hence. His children will
attend the public schools, they will
learn to love the Stars and Stripes as
fondly as if their remote parents had
stepped upon Plymouth rock from the
Mayfower, and their American loyalty
will stand the test of a call to arms in
case of national emergency.
The great mass of foreigners who
come to the United States are so well
pleased with their new homes that they
readily throw off allegiance to the gov
ernments of their native land. They
become true American citizens, ready
to fight for the land of their adoption
If need be, as demonstrated in all of
the country's wars from the beginning
of the Revolution.
There is no cause for fear because of
the preponderance of immigration as
compared with native increase in popu-
lation. The foreign element readily as
similates with the native and the chill
dren become characteristic yankees" I"
The only cause for apprehension is the
sitting through our ports of large ele-
ment of the riffraff of foreign nations
criminals, paupers, illiterates and other
undesirable characters.
It is the cosmopolitan character Of
our nation that has enabled it to make
such mighty strides in progress and
prosperity, and the same character will
be potent in keeping it at the head Of
the national procession.

.SONORATOWN IS
SWIFTLY PASSING
Utah Street Court Is Belna Dis
mantIed, Preparatory to Building
Factories and other Hives
Of Industry

With the dismantling Of the homes In
the Utah street Mexican court yester-
day morning began the passing of
Sonoratown. A few more years and
the Mexican settlement-all that is left
Of old Los Angeles-will be no more.
The problem of abolishing the dirty
and tumbled down dwellings of these
courts has been one which has troubled
the minds Of health officers for long
time, but the spirit of commercialism
is to settle the question at last. The
Mexican courts are to make way for
factories, and soon the huts of the
Mexicans will be replaced by the homes
Of Industries.
The property in which the Utah court
is situated belongs to Mrs. Constance
Goytino, and among the concerns which
Will locate there is the Sunset Iron COM
pany.
The evicted Mexicans are pulling
their homes down and carrying them
away. Some of them are scattering to
the flats in the northeastern part of the
city and others do not know where to
turn for a place to make a home. For
the rental Of ground space for these
Mexican homes Mrs. Goytino has been
receiving a rental of $15O month from
about $50 families. Thirty other lots
in the vicinity are owned by Mrs. Coy
tino and her sisters and it is believed
that these will soon become factory
sites.
With the approaching end of the
sixty days limit by the housing Or
dinance many changes are being made
in other Mexican courts. The more
thrifty of the residents, urged on by
the owners of the property, are doing
their best to improve their homemade
shacks. The time limit expires April
s. and thirty days after that the COM
mission will have the right to drive out
the tenants who have not brought their
dwellings up to the standard.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 2.-Today
the proprietors of every laundry in San

Workers union are working at the
Mercantile laundry on Eighth street,
where they are trying to complete the
contracts which were made before the
strike. There are forty-fve of them.
and every department of the big laun-

The employers declare that they can
not accede to the terms of the union.
They are willing, they say, to go back
to the old agreement, but to meet the
new demands of the union. they de-
clare, would be ruinous.
Tonight they will hold a meeting, but
the members of the association de-
clare that it will be impossible for them
to recede from their position.
Up to noon today no laundry had
joined the four concerns which yester-
day acceded to the demands of the
union. No overture had been received
from the employees, but the men believe
that the proprietors will come forward
with a definite proposition after the
meeting tonight.

DIVINE DIVISION

Court Issues a Restraining Order
Against Holiness Trustees to Pre-

$4,000 Checks

There will be no divine inspiration in
the division of the 100000 recently
acquired by the Los Angeles Holiness
band from the sale of property on West
Fourth street. Instead of divine In
spiration the superior courts have for
the present harnessed any such in
spiration that might have been swirling
about in the heads of the trustees of
the church. and the giant fund is
tightly tied UP now by injunction pro-
ceedings.
The property is just opposite the An
gelus hotel and considered one of the
finest spots in the city from a real
estate standpoint. 1t was acquired by
the Holiness band some years ago and
has been held ever since until recently,
when an exceptional offer of 100000 for
the small lot proved too great tempta-
ton, and forthwith the property was
sold
Then a meeting of the board of trus-
tees of the Holiness church was held.
An argument took place as to just how
the money should be handled After
considerable consultation the amount
was divided into seven portions of $10,-
900 each and the balance remained in
the church fund.
