SOUVENIR GUIDE BOOKS
ARE ON THE PRESSES

An edition of twenty thousand guide
books of Los Angeles and California
will be issued in the near future as the
official souvenirs of the coming N. E.
A. convention.
For several weeks the publicity COM
mittee of the N. e. A. has been en-
gagged in getting together material for
the book, and last night the first forms
went to press.
The souvenir is a we'll bound 12-mo
book of about 100 pages. A fine grade
of paper will be used and the book will
be bound with a flexible yellow cover.
1t can be carried in a pocket easily.
Almost $50 cuts of show places in Cali
fornia will be used, and with them ar
ticles descriptive of the various scenes.
No advertisements of any kind will
appear in this book or in other publi-
cations of the N. E. A. press committee.

BACK TO NATURE

One of the most widely known Amer
lean actors announces his purpose to
quit the stage forever and become a
miner in Nevada. He says he wants
to live among real men and real
things, away from artifice and artistry
and all ether big names for little
things"
Back to nature is the aspiration of
that actor. And none can appreciate
so readily as one of his profession that
"all the worlds a stage" on which
men and women strut their brief hour.
He knows that what is commonly rated
as the best in life-the luxuries and
pleasures that wealth can buy-are
really only as the shams enacted on
the stage.
That actor, surfeited with the best
that comes to a favorite of the mimic
stage, or to one of the broad world
stage, has reached the frame of mind
that Solomon, greatest of voluptuaries,
expressed in his declining years: RE
move far from me vanity and lies;
give HlG llS4LllCl PONClbS iAOA AiNAANS'
feed me with food convenient for me-"
Life in a Nevada camp, or anywhere
else, "far from the madding crowd"
and the swirl of conventional pleasure,
should be alluring to any man of
sense who has seen the great world
at it's best and at it's worst.
The actor truly says: II have met
men in Nevada-men that are men,"
and by implication he confesses that
men who are not shams form very
small minority on the worlds stage.
And what he says particularly of Ne
vada is applicable to the whole range
of the great west. In this region of rel
atively sparse settlement and compara-
tive newness mankind is in closer
touch with nature than in the artificial
atmosphere that stiles the growth of
"men that are men," as the actor ex-
presses it.
1t is only strange that sane men who
have drained the cup of pleasure are
not by hundreds and thousands reach
ing the conclusion that real happiness
and contentment are not dependent on
the size of ones bank deposit. The
chase for wealth and the resultant
weakness for the usual fruits thereof
are destructive to both mind and body
Such life sowing is almost sure to be
followed by harvest of regret. And
how often the surfeited votary of pleas
ure must experience the feeling poet
ically expressed by Cowper 20 for q
lodge in some vast wilderness"
The nearer we all get to nature and
the farther from the artificial environ
ment of "Vanity Fair" the more true
happiness and the greater contentment
we shall enjoy.

THE HAYWOOD TRIAL

The Haywood trial at Boise. Idaho
promises to rival the Thaw trial in
New York as the judicial sensation OF
the year. The two cases are totally
unlike except in the fact that murder
is the basis of both. Haywood, unlike
Thaw, is not accused of being the
actual perpetrator of murder, nor does
he admit any participancy in the crime
as charged in the indictment. Fur
thermore he is only one of several al
legged accessories before the fact, all
the others being slated for trial, as
presumed, after the initial case is dis
posed of.
The mere selection of the jury to
try Haywood occupied two weeks and
the trial is likely to be one of the
longest on record. If all the parties
to the alleged conspiracy are brought
to trial Idaho will have an appalling
expense account to liquidate.
The Haywood case is peculiar, as all
the rest will be, in the fact that the
chief witness for the prosecution is
the confessed murderer. That witness,
a person of admittedly bad character,
has testified that he was the hired
assassin of conspirators who had
planned the death of Idahos former
governor.
Al great deal of sympathy for Hay
wood and the other persons indicted
with him has been expressed in all
parts of the United States, particular.
ly in labor union circles. 1t is as,
sumed by sympathizers that the de-
PENDANTS are victims of malicious per-
secution and that it is outrageous TO
put their liberty and life in jeopardy
on the basis of a miscreant's testimony.
On the other hand it is claimed by
the prosecution that the evidence will
disclose monstrous conspiracy on the
part of Haywood and his alleged con.
federates, and that the murder in
volved in the present trial was only
an incident in the chain of crimes.
Those crimes, all attributed primarily
to Haywood and his confreres, cover
the blowing up of mines and a rail-
way depot, two murders in addition
to the one which led to the present
trial and also attempts on the lives
of judges and other high officials.
1t has been widely claimed by friends
of the prisoners that they will not be
accorded a fair trial in Idaho The
care with which the jury was selected.
however, gives reason for belief that
the claim is entirely unfounded.
The trial or trials, as the case may
be, will afford another striking ex-
ample of deplorable results from quar-
rels between workers and EMPLOYERS
when carried to the limit of crime.

THE SUBWAY REDlvIvUs

Again the great subway project gives
pleasing promise of being pushed to
completion. After many months Of de-
lay because Of trivial hitch between
the Los Angeles-Pacific company and
the board of education the work of con-
struction is likely to begin at once.
At the first stage of the enterprise
The Herald correctly characterized II
as second only to Mr.. Huntington
great urban and interurban transit as
factor in the future upbuilding OF
Los Angeles.
The value of the projected system is
evidenced by the fact that 1t will re-
duce time schedules nearly one-half
from Los Angeles to the Hollywood
district and ultimately to the ocean.
What that means in the enhancement
of property values is shown in the will
Iingness of property owners along the
line to make large contributions for
highway tunnels side by side with
those of the railway company.
Not only the individual residents and
other property owners along the sub
way line will be benefited by the i'm
proved system of rapid transit. The
city as whole will be large gamer
by reason of the great increase in values
of assessable property. That increase
probably will be equal, by the time the
construction work is completed, to all
the cost of the work.
Progressive citizens are pleased to
see that the obstructive policy adopted
toward the electric railway companies
by the last city administration finds
no favor with the administration of
which Mayor Harper is the head. The
broad-minded ideas that prevail now
in the city government are in striking
contrast with the rut that constituted
the viewpoint of the former body.
The subway system-meaning rail-
way which pierces high grounds by
tunnels and depressed trachs-wiH af=
ford a more direct course than is pos
sible by an ali surface line and will
admit of much greater speed because
of exclusive right of way. 1t is an
expensive plan of railway construc-
tion, but it is a recognized necessity
in the larger class Of cities, both Amer
ican and European.
Los Angeles needs greater rapid
transit facilities and needs them ur-
gently. There is good reason to be-
lieve that the stoppage of local rail-
way building, as consequence of the
obstructive policy of the McAleer ad-
has been one factor in the
of home building activity.
Inviting home sites in some of the
most attractive localities have failed
OF improvement because of the stop
page of railway extensions consequent
upon obstructive ordinances.
Street railway expansion has been
the leader in the marvellous growth of
Los Angeles and must continue so to
be. The more railways the better and
they cannot be constructed too fast to
meet the requirements of home seek
ers

Cottonwood Wins Game.

Cottonwood Wins Game.
The Cottonwood base ball team
placed themselves in line for q
bunch of boquets from the citi-
zens of that town last Saturday
when they defeated the Grange
vile boys by score Of 9 tot. Sew
eral old stars who played with Cot.
tOnwOOd's victorious team two or
three years ago were in the game
for the Craig Mountain town and
showed up in splendid form. The
team which went over from here
wasn't composed of Grangeville's
fastest players. Most of the boys,
who are employed at different
places in the city were unable to
60, so team was made up Of high
school players and other available
material. But they put up y good
contest, however, and created q
lot Of "baseball fever" among the
Cotton wood fans.
Local enthusiasts Of the game
are pleased to learn that Cotton
wood has organized baseball
team and are looking for come
good games between Grangeville
and Cottonwood this summer.
After the game Saturday the
Grangeville boys decided to re-
main in Cotton wood and play a
game Sunday. Several of the
members Of the first team went
over Sunday forenoon to partici.
pate in the contest, but on account
of rain the game was called off.
Williams, Fisher, Brown and
Kilen were the stars Of Grange
ville's aggregation in Saturday e
game, while Fred Lange did the
best stunts for Cottonwood. Frank
Woods long throw from deer
center to home plate, thus pre-
venting a score by q Cottonwood
player, was the feature of the game
