SMALL OPPOSITION sKULKING

There's feature of the Owens river
discussion to be borne in mind by
every one interested in it-and that
means every one in Los Angeles. 1t
is: When you see an argument in
favor of the project 1t is signed by the
real name of the writer or authorized
by the real name of the man speaking.
He isn't afraid or ashamed to give his
reasons for the faith that is in him or
to put his signature to what he has to
say. But when opposition voices itself
you find the Internationally writ
full publishing them-signed by such
fake nom de plumes as "Veritas,"
"Pro Bono Publico" and a few more
of the ancient lodges utilized by those
who fear to be known in a wicked
cause.
Now, if there were real. genuine,
disinterested opposition to Owens river
it would voice itself as does the party
favoring the plan. But there isn't;
the only ones against it are the power
companies, which hope to grab the
Owens river for their own use and the
newspaper they maintain. The power
companies dare not come out from un-
der cover because people would then
plainly discern the animus of their
fight. The newspaper cannot get men
other than those interested to stand
for its knocks" so it writes them on
it's own little typewriters in its own
little office and signs them 'Veritas,"
etc. Their wording shows their bias;
their arguments" plainly indicate their
animus; their lack of authority and
identity stamp them as fakes.
If Owens river were not good thing
for the city there would be plenty to
condemn it, But it is a good plan;
every one sustains it with voice and
pen save the hirelings of those covet-
ing it for Interior purposes. And they
dare not come out in the open and
fight; they hide behind antique old
"Veritas."

DRINK CAUSES DIVORCE

In a divorce suit pending between n
New York multi-millionaire and his
wife the husband alleges that he was
Obliged to leave his spouse because "she
was addicted to overindulgence in in
toxicants." He AYERS further that when
he finally demanded that she cease the
use of liquors "her reply was an en-
phatic refusal" Thereupon they sepa-
rated.
This revelation is of no public conse-
quence except in the side light 1t casts
upon habits on the upper level of So
ciety. A standard subject for the pens
of sensational newsmongers Is the al
legged bibulous habits of women in the
exclusive social swim. Evidently a
great deal of that literary output is
imaginary and quite likely there is
much exaggeration in all of It,
Nevertheless, evidence Of reliable kind
crops out at times, as in the divorce
case alluded to, showing that the ten
sion of high life in society tends to
create an appetite for stimulants. And
a moments reflection convinces that no
other result could be expected in view
of the habits and customs that rule on
the social upper crust.
The couple now in the limelight Of the
New York divorce court afford good
example of the pitfalls in the path of
domestic happiness that beset the path
way of the very rich. That couple were
married a little more than eight years
ago and they have two children. Not
long before the marriage the young man
inherited $4,000, 900 from his father. The
young woman was earning her living
and the union was said to be Glove
match"
But after her marriage there was
nothing for the young wife to do but
buffet the waves of the social swim an6
assist her husband in the difficult tasl
of spending his large income. Such
social functions as she was obliged t.
participate in caused a constant stralr
upon both the mental faculties and The
nervous system. The apparent remed!
!
fashionable tipple that seems to be in
dispensable in high social life. TIL,
tipple braces the nerves temporarily
eXhilarates the whole system anC
creates an appetite for more.
If that young couple had started il
life on the same social level that th'
young mans parents started they nigh
now be as happy as they were in th
days of their honeymoon. But insteac
of fighting poverty in double harnes
they merely had to devise ways AM
means of getting rid of their burden
some income.
The follies of high social life took tn
place of love in a cottage" the tensio
of the social strain necessitated increas
ing stimulation and now the sequel
in evidence in the divorce proceeding

SUMNER CRIME OPENING

The opening of the summer holdup
season, beginning with a Euclid Heights
car, probably is rated as auspicious
in bandit circles. 1t certainly would
seem promising from criminal point
of view. The incident involved only
a minute of professional work and it
yielded quite snug pecuniary return.
Apparently the risk was hardly worthy
of thought, as the highwaymen got
away readily with their booty, leav-
ing only the standard clew that one
of them was tall and the other short.
The future of the holdup and kindred
industries during the summer upon
which we are entering is a matter of
anxious concern. Police detectives ad-
nit knowledge of the fact that "erooks
of all descriptions have been silently
slipping into Los Angeles of late pre-
paratory to their usual summer cam
paign" The Euclid Heights affair has
stirred the detective service to the
point of an order from the chief, as
reported. requiring his men to "bring
in all persons who look suspicious"
Any person of keen discernment may
see in brief walk on the city's lead
ing thoroughfares scores of suspicious
looking characters. They are seen
hanging around the entrances to
amusement places and posing in front
of saloons, hotel entrances and cigar
stands. Reputable people, of course,
are found in like circumstances, but
those with criminal characteristics are
very much in evidence.
The order to bring in" all suspects
should strike at the root of the GRIM
inal crop in Los Angeles. Idlers and
vagabonds who infest the thorough
fares are usually obnoxious in their
manners toward girls and women, even
though they may not be criminals.
The whole class of chronic loafers that
congregate at such places as are noted
should be prodded with an order to
"move on" the farther the better.
Rid the thoroughfares of all such
characters and make Los Angeles too
hot for every class of disreputable per-
sons. The chief of detectives is taking
the right course in his order to round
up all suspects" and he will have
the united support of decent citizen
ship in the strict enforcement of the
order
