SALT LAKE ROAD IS FREE

No news of more Importance to Los
Angeles and Southern California has
been conveyed to the public than that
of the announcement, printed in yes
terdays Herald, to the effect that 1.-The
traffic agreement entered into June 2S,
1903, between the Southern Pacific and
the San Pedro, Los Angeles & Salt Lake
Railroad company has been Cancelled" !"
This means that the Salt Lake road
i1 free. 1t means that~one of the three
great transcontinental lines has slipped
through the meshes of the octopus, and
is once more in position to become the
friend and helper of Los Angeles.
1t will be now recalled with pleasure
that the joy of the people in this sec
ton over the construction Of the Salt
Lake road was occasioned by the pos
sibilities of its power to aid the ship
pers of Southern California Hemmed
in, thrown down and bound hand and
foot by the old railroad oligarchy, the
work of Senator Clark in building his
line across the desert and over the
mountains vas watched with breath
less interest by those who in their utter
helpIessness looked to him for relief.
Imagine their profound disappointment
when they discovered that Senator
Clark had been held up at the Meadow
wash and forced into a traffic agree
ment with the Southern Pacific.
But again is the Salt Lake free.
Again its management is restored to
power, and probably the happiest days
in the railroad experience of the local
Salt Lake railroad officials were yester-
day and today, when they received pos
itive information that at last they will
BE- placed in control of their own splen-
did trunk line.
Los Angeles herald., 1907-05-06
TOO MANY coREYS

The chances are a hundred to one
that the prophecy of the old uncle OF
President Corey of the steel trust will
come true. The old man said. on
reading the announcement Of his
nephew's prospective marriage to an
actress of some notoriety, Il am an
old man and may not live to see the
day that Ellis rues his bargain, but
the time will come; such doings can
not be blessed and I prophesy dire
results from this"
The old mans conclusion is logical,
based on a lifetime of observations
reaching to an age well beyond three
score years and ten. He said, ut is
not nature, nor is it human for one to
divorce the wife of his youth. the one
who bore him children and stood by
him in all his poverty, in order that he
might marry the actress"
There is a very wide application in
the conclusion of that old uncle of W.
Ellis Corey and it fits men who in this
era of rapid fortune making are found
in every city and large town in the
United States. Corey is simply the
most conspicuous type of the class be-
cause he began his life career at the
very bottom Of the ladder. as a day
laborer, and now he is the head of the
great billion dollar United States Steel
corporation.
But less conspicuous men of the
Corey stamp are too plentiful in all
American communities. Such man
starts in his career hand in hand with
the helpmeet that he adores. The
couple struggle together with poverty,
bearing one another's burdens but
buoyed by hope and happy in mutual
love. The time comes, however, when
prosperity crowns the efforts of the
pair and necessity is displaced by
! luxury.
That transformation brings the
crucial test Of character. If the man
is Of the type who can stand prosperity
without losing his head, his ambition

MAKE IT PERMANENT

The instant and complete success
of the made in California" exposition
should be sufficient argument to justify
the manufacturers and merchants of
Los Angeles in establishing the exhibit
as permanent institution.
People all over the country are con-
vinced that all we have in Southern
California is climate, and that all we
produce are the citrus fruits-oranges
and lemons. 1t is possibly our own fault
that such an impression is universal
We have dwelt so long and so success
fully upon our semi-tropical climate and
our citrus fruits are so much In evil
dence throughout the world that, in the
absence of additional information,
everybody is justified in the conclusion
that Los Angeles is merely pleasure
loving, recreative city, where the trials
and troubles of commercial and indus
trial life are either absent entirely or
maintained at the minimum of neces-
sity.
Our statistics now easily demonstrate
IHdI LOS AHBclcSy III ttQdllAOh ~ ANo OhhNA
conspicuous virtues, is also a great
manufacturing city. Iron and steel
foundries are doing a tremendous busi-
ness; factories hum with the burden Of
their employment and many thousands
of men receive large wages in all the
Industrial plants of Los Angeles. Since
the partial destruction of San Fran
cisco by fire and earthquake, large ad-
ditions have been made to the manufac-
turing progress Of this city, and all the
indications are that within a few years
Los Angeles will be the chief and most
important manufacturing center on the
Pacific coast.
How better can we illuminate this
great fact than by establishing. upon
permanent basis, the exposition now in
progress?
The cost of permanency need not be
large. AS, for instance, it Is not neces-
sary, as other cities have done, to raise
big sums Of money with which to con-
struct an exposition building and to
maintain the same. Private enterprise
has already shown how the scheme can
be carried out, for the exposition in
existence was created at small cost and
is kept going by its patronage.
Let the manufacturing and other in
dustries get together, form an associa-
tion, cooperate with the mercantile
and arrange to make the
exposition permanent, so that every
visitor to Los Angeles can be shown
living evidences of the great trade and
industries of this city.

man made a mistake and really in
tended to arrest him for blocking the
traffic by going too slow.
Trials and tribulations of the automo.
bile variety seemed to pursue the Mont
gomerys and their guests on every side.
Lifted from Machine
When the party reached Redondo ana
drew up at the curb the car was sur
rounded by crowd of men and women,
who lifted the owners out and put them
selves in.
Its our turn next; we want a ride.
Hurry UP and let us in. Here you,
say it is my turn next"
These were the kind Of remarks that
assailed them on every hand, and the
bewildered party did not know what to
make Of it.
They finally learned after half an
hours clamoring on the part of the
would-be automobile occupants, and
much explaining by real estate dealers,
that the Redondo Villa tract was hav-
ing a sale of lots and the Redondo
Villa tract was offering as an induce
ment to probable customers a free auto
mobile ride.
The people waiting to ride had mis-
taKen the Montgomery car for one of
the free cars. All cars looked alike to
them, and they would not listen to
reason. 1t was nearly an hour from the
time they stopped until they were final
ly allowed to depart in peace.

But II he is weak and vain the time
soon comes when he and his helpmeet

lows the enticing lead that wealth
unfolds. leaving the wife of his youth
to plod alone, bearing broken heart.
The time will come" however, as
the old uncle of Corey predicts, when

helpmeet will "rue his bargain" Truly

OIL. NOT WATER. ON STREETS

There Is one reason why there is not
likely to be any objection to the pro-
posed plan of doing the local street
sprinkling at night. That is the gen.
eral sentiment that no change from
present methods could make the SER
vice worse, while there is at least a
possibility that the proposed plan
might be helpful.
Citizens of Los Angeles have grown
weary of fault finding with the sprink-
ling service. The cause Of complaint
relates chiefly to the service in the
residence districts. wherein the street
mileage probably is at least ten times
that of the business thoroughfares.
In most of that vast mileage of
home streets the choice between day
and night sprinkling might appro-
priately be decided by the toss of a
cent. The question of day or night
work for that purpose is immaterial
because the service is practically
worthless fundamentally, so far as the
greater part of the street mileage is
concerned.
What the majority of the non-busi-
ness streets of Los Angeles need is
not squirt of water that stirs UP
cloud of dust on application and then
dries up before the squirt wagon is
out of sight. That is only waste
of water and money by the city and
a provocation to profanity on the part
of good citizens.
The obvious need, as The Herald
has pointed out many times hereto
fore, is a sprinkling of oil. That fact
is patent to city officials and all citi-
zens who are familiar with the system
of oil surfacing for streets.
Many of our streets have been treat
ed with oil as finish of street I'M
provement work, but they have been
left at that as if one oil treatment
should last forever. A street that is
used moderately will remain in good
condition, free from dust and mud,
perhaps a year If the work has been
properly done. But in time the wear
Of vehicles grinds the surfacing and
the virtue of the oil is lost.
On streets that have been thus
some Of. them for two or
three years, the squirt wagon now is
seen at intervals dribbling drops OF
water in the dust to be licked up py
the thirsty sun. One sprinkling OF oil
would last a year and guard against
dust. while the water squirt lasts
few minutes, hardly long enough tor
tbe dust to settle that has been stirred
by the sprinkle.
