STILL MORE SCHOOLS

On more than one occasion The Her
aid has deprecated the necessity on the
part of the city and district school
board of calling for the issuance of
bonds, and has frequently suggested
that the proper and correct way to
prepare for the extension of buildings
would be by the creation of an annual
building fund.
The Heralds position on these ques-
tions appears to meet with the theo-
retical approval of the school board
and of the city superintendent. They
promptly admit that building fund
should be created-in fact, should have
been created years ago-but declare
that the tremendous growth of the city
has always so far outrun the revenues
that the future must, of dire necessity,
be mortgaged if the demand for school
accommodations is to be met.
And this is unquestionably a fact.
The school authorities are confronted
with a condition which at present post
pones acceptance of a proper theory.
The board at its last meeting adopted
a resolution favoring a bond issue of
100000, to construct buildings that are
badly needed for grammar school pur-
poses and $25O,OOO for an additional
high school, And the city attorney
has been asked to prepare the necess-
sary documents calling an election on
this question.
In the language of Superintendent
Moore: IF Los Angeles shall be COM
PEELED to refuse admission to gram
mar schools for lack Of room, it will
give the city a knock that will re-
quire double duty from Frank Wig
gins to overcome. And 1 don't want
to be superintendent if such an emer-
gency shall ever be thrust upon u.s."
The condition is still present with us
We must have more school buildings
and we haven't the money with which
to build them. We dawdled and fought
over the last school bond issue until
when we did get the money, the city
had developed another notch, and with
all our new buildings we were at once
as bad off as before.
The proposed bond issue, it should
be understood, will cover the school,
district, which includes considerable
territory outside the city limits, and
will therefore not be taken from the
city's limit of bonded Indebtedness.
Next to the water problem, the ques,
tion Of maintaining our public school;
efficiently and successfully is a close
second.
Now let the school board prepare anc
publish an itemized statement showing
the disposition of every dollar of The
proceeds of the last bond issue, TO-
gether with a detailed statement Of tn,
present needs. and the public will b,
ready to meet the question.
Los Angeles has never yet show
the white feather in matters OF public
enterprise or necessities. and 1t is no
likely to make an exception OF thi
emergency.

BUSINESS an ITS BEST.
t%H --
Careful Canvass Shows Commerce
Climbing as Stocks Drop.

" ~
Climbing as Stocks Drop.
New York City-After a careful
canvass by a Tribune representative
of the large commercial and financial
Interests of New York to obtain at
first hand an accurate insight into
the business conditions Of the coun-.
try, it can be announced that there
are no signs of a diminution of the
prosperity which the United States
has been enjoying, that the volume
of business for the first six months of
this year has been greater than for
the same time in 1906, that failures
have been fewer, and that the pros
poets for the last six months of 1907
are full of encouragement. There
| can, of course, be no safer gauge Of
the commerce Of the country at large
than the condition Of business in
New York, the great distributing
centre.
Among the manufacturers ap-
proached, each, of course, discusses
| the business, Situation from the
standpoint of his w industry, but
the basis for the conclusion that there
is no danger of a reversal of condi-
Ltions is the views Of about o dozen
large firms, representing as many in
| duStrieS, who express b same opCt--
mistic prediction of an8eraAof even,
| greater prosperity.
Contrary to what appears almost
general belief, the inactivity Of the
| stock market has not had any, great
| effect on the mercantile Industries.
| Merchants who do not include opti-
mism and pessimism in their stock Of
trade have not only notbeen afectedby
the stagnant condition of Wall Street,
| but apparently are little Interested in
it. OF far greater import to them is
tho wage rate, which, the Tribune
learns from reliable sources, has been
higher for the last six months In
nearly all branches of industry than
| ever before. ~ ~ ~

AXE III rREAsoh rRIALs

sharp Edge Turned Toward Prisoner
- When Sentence Is Pronouneed.
Every one is aware OF the dread
enlly significant part the executioner's
axe plays In a trial fer high treason.
The sharp symbol Of death is carried
before the prisoner, With Nits blunt
side turned toward him so long as he
has not been sentenced, says Macmil-
lan's Magazine. and just before sem
tence Is pronounced the sharp edge
t~s5turned his way. 4 - ~ '4-
1Bvelyn, who was present at the
trial OF Lord Stafford IN 1863. tells
Us that the axe was turned edgeways
to the unfortunate nobternan as soon
as It was ascertained that the voting
Of his peers went against hIm-an et-
fective but CHASTITY piece OF stage
management which must have had q
'sickening fascination for the unhap-
py and probably innocent man.. In
those days, now happily gona by, no
one seems to have reflected on the
unnecessary cruelty OF narrowing the
feelings OF men about to die by such
shocking judicial by-play.
Not every prisoner treated this
purely symbolic but otherwise super.
fuous and unpleasant ceremony as
contemptuously as did Lord Balmer-
Inc. When the three coaches convey
ed the Lords Klmarnock, Balmerino
and Cromartie from the Tower to be

into all the details of an execution,

or rebound, and when on the scaffold

THE PEACH TREE BORER.

The peach borer is a wasp-like in
sect, with transparent wings and a
richIy-ornamented body, banded and
striped with gold, and deposits it's
eggs about the base OF the trunk OF
the tree. The eggs hatch out, the
larvae bore into the sap-wood, and
caus an emulation Of gummy matter,
which appears in masses about the
base of the tree. The larvae seem
partly to live in this gummy substance
and partly in the sap-wood Of the
tree. Sometimes three or four are
found On the same tree, occasionally

Inducing more or less of a diseased
condition and impairing its vigor. Al
