Two Men Will Furnish PreIimi-

trail Bout.
BOTH ARE GOOD MEN.
GREAT SPORT PROMISED AT DoU-
BILE HEADER CONTEST-DEME
TRIAL UNKNOWN HERE, BUT is
GREAT LIGHT HEAVYWEIGHT.

Promoter CharlSon was in the city
yesterday for the purpose of making
preliminary arrangements for the big
wrestling mill he will pull off Friday
evening of this week at the coliseum.
Charlson states that he has decided to
have another double-header bill, and
the attraction he will offer this week
will be even better than the two big
matches he pulled off at the coliseum
week before last.
Olson versus Demetral and Prindle
versus LaSalle, will be Charlson's two
big offerings. Olson, Prindle and La
Sale are well known to the local low
ers of the sport and need no introduc-
ton. Demetral has never appeared
here. but his reputation as one of the
greatest light heavyweights in the
country has preceded him.
Prindle, it viii be remembered, was
one of the principals in the first
wrestling bout ever held in this city.
He met Busch in that match and was
defeated by the German after a hard
battle. Prindle's defeat at that time
was undoubtedly due to the fact that
he was not in the best of training. He
has been working hard at the mat
game since then, and is now in 1.-THE
pink" Joe LaSalle went against
the Turk recently in this city and gave
the big fellow a fight for the money.
He and Prindfe are very evenly match
ed and should furnish good sport.
The principal feature of the bill.
however, will be the match between
Olson and Demetral. These men are
rivals and top notchers in the wrest-
ling game. They have met twice be-
fore, each securing victory. No love
is lost between the two men and the
contest is sure to be spicy.

and preached liberty. When he sought
a symbol for the movement he reached
up and picked green leaf which he
stuck in his hat. In an hour Paris
was verdant with like symbols, says
the San Jose Herald.
The green hat is the emblem Of MOD

at once his flag and his gage Of battle.
He is fighting for the freedom of col

CALLS CONSCIENCE MERELY
RECOGNITION OF THE GOOD

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 7.-[Editor
Herald: Why is 1t those who reject
the Bible seize on certain passages to
support their claim of error?
Conscience might be termed the
recognition of the presence of good in
the heart, rebuking evil and thus Great
Ing or stirring evil UP until 1t is eventu-
ally elected because of suffering (men-
tai fermentation). 1t is somewhat in
this sense that the Bible statement, Il
am God, I make peace and create evil,
is used, as an alkali neutralizes an acid
when the two are combined, though
temporarily causing fermentation.
The Bible says God is too pure to
behold iniquity" (eviD, so, when we
become conscious of his presence the
sense of evil departs. That God is love,
as st. John declared, is the proper basis
from which to reason, and we know
love wills only good.
Belief in an anthropomorphic God Is
inconsistent with the idea of omnip-
otence, omnipresence and omniscience.
Oh. Severance, endeavoring to illustrate
the meaning of infinite, says: 1.-The
mind can travel in the realms OF space
until weary and find no end"
Now, properly speaking, infinite space
is mind, or God, and 1t is reflected III
ideas everywhere, but only after its
own image. Being all-presence, it pre-
cludes the possibility of any other
presence, q devils included.
Man is Gods perfect idea, and the
real man olives and moves and has his
being in God" and not in a false con-
cept of creation. He can think Gods
thoughts after him" without becoming
weary, finding only rest therein.
Heaven is only coming into con-
scious identity with God. r. n.

ever. The popularity of the green hat
makes for hopefulness along other
lines of masculine wear and for other
hues as we'll. 1t is the opening wedge,
the breach in the wall, the leak in the
dam.
If we are allowed to wear green hats,
or, rather, if we crush feminine OBJ
lection by the bulk of lis, why not
bottle green clothes and, progressing
merrily, sky blue? Once the dixie is
down, the stream may flow where it
wills. Why should man parade through
life as somber as a hired mute at
funeral? Why must his glad rags"
be as CHEEKY as an undertaken or a
mortuary urn?
Put a woman in a pretty frock of
glowing hues and she will forget her
raging headache, the falsity of Joe, or
the success of her rivals. Man, who
works many hours and packs each
with worry and fight, needs the pick
me-up of colors. If he could go to
business in nice, warm-tinted, encour-
aging clothes, the hard days would be
easier. And, borrowing a sublimated
figleaf from the wardrobe Of woman.
he might have particularly inspiring
hues for hours of dumpiness and dark
ness and despair.
The green hat may shrek, as some
women sneer. Let it, for its shrek is
the war cry of mankind.

VIII NOV Arise and Explain

of one of those complicated machines
before which the layman stands in
puzzled admiration. In his face one
could read mingled concern and the
joy of triumph. l have seen the same
expression of fiery yet calculating en-
ergy in the countenance of a great ora
tor swaying thousands with his speech,
in a pugilist winning bitter fight, in
lawyer sweeping court and jury to
his side, in the captain of a ship defy
ing the fury of the cyclone"
According to Harpers Weekly, 1t
appears. and according to the devoted
William, the district attorney and his
assistants, who intend to prosecute this
indicted demigod, are his enemies"
and a man, accused of felony, and
fighting to avoid conviction, is a heroic
and admirable figure; warrior under
fire." William does not discuss the
fact that the apotheoslzed Calhoun.
who was already several times a mill
lionaire, stopped sordidly to debauch
public officers in order to increase his
pile of money. He does not explain
those kilograms which the noble Cal
houn sent to the director of the mint
bidding him to deliver to TREY L. Ford
the money which was paid to Ruef. He
does not explain why Calhoun, if he
had no guilty part in the bribery, does
not repudiate his guilty subordinates
and abandon the franchise so felonious-
ly acquired.
Poor Tom Lonergan, who took part
of the United Railroads bride money,
and died Of the anxiety and disgrace,
was also, like Calhoun, devoted hus-
band and father; but William Inglis
did not come all the way from New
York to paint toadying word pictures
of the wretched bakery wagon drive~.

n UR old friend, William Inglis, has
broken forth again in Harper's
" Weekly with another of his fun
key papers on Patrick Calhoun. VIII
liam does not matter very much, but
as free marked copies of the number
of Harper's Weekly which contains the
article on Calhoun will be distributed
in San Francisco, it is worth while to
comment on Williams rather strained
endeavor to glorify Southern gentle
man who happens to be in an ugly
scrape, says the San Francisco Bul-
letin. From one paragraph of Will
lian's verbose article the reader may
know the whole article. William writes:
Sharper contrast could not be mag
ined than that presented by the man
as I saw him downtown and the man
at home. Beset by enemies who con-
trolled the forces of public prosecution,
surrounded by an army of spies, fight
ing not only for his property and MS
liberty, but for the good name when
makes life worth living, he presented
the picture of commanding officer on
a fiercely contested field. He received
reports Of the enemy's activity con-
suited with attorneys, pointed out the
weak spots in the attacking line, all
with the energy of leading counsel in
a great case. All his force seemed
concentrated in that battle. And yet
in the same house he reviewed reports
of the operation of the street railway,
determined what changes should be
made. talked with heads of depart
ments, and heard the reports of en-
gineers on new propositions. All this

II ROCEEDINGS at yesterdays ses-
sion of the Southern California
Il legislative delegation emphasized
the necessity for prudent watchfulness
on the part of the people of Los An
geles to prevent interference with San
Pedro harbor, the plan and scope of
which are well defined in the state
ment it is not only the seaport of
Southern California, but the harbor
city of Los Angeles. It is important
that no influences hostile to the benefit
and advancement of Los Angeles
should have anything to do with the
history Of the harbor, or anything to
say about it's development. The free
harbor must remain free harbor in
every sense of the term, and If eternal
vigilance is to be the price of it's free
dom in the future, as it has been in the
past, the citizens of Los Angeles may
be depended upon to remain Externally
vigilant." Nothing must be coun-
tenanced and nothing must be done

S. P. COMMITTEE

nj OTHING was indicated by the
recent defeat of the government
4 tai steamship proposition at the
California county committees of the
promotion committee beyond the fact
that the committee misrepresents its
true purpose when it says it is a
California promotion committee. It is
in reality a Southern Pacific railway
promotion committee, fact which is
being recognized by many of our in
dependent and outspoken contempora-
ries throughout the state.
The interests which opposed the res
olution were Southern Pacific inter-
ests. The chairman of the committee
on resolutions opposed it because "the
committee had not considered it,"
How much consideration did such a
plain proposition require from honest
unbiased men and good citizenship
Reduced to its basic terms it was a
proposition in good citizenship. Men
should not require time to discuss
whether or not in their conduct they
will conform to the higher standards
of citizenship. Secretary Edwords of
the promotion committee said the mat
ter should be passed on by the people
OF California. 1t might be well to take
him at his word and get the question
before the people. He will find the
attitude of The Herald and othw adj
vocates Of the resolution will be in
dorsed and supported by an over
whelminE majority.

Christmas festivity will be memorable.
We are sure our friends will keep up
the pace set by the early givers, and
that the festival will be well equipped

We all agree the Christmas spirit Of
giving is the healthiest symptom Of
modern civilization. There is plenty Of
hope for citizens who will stop in the
race for riches and remember that all
the world is kin. Greater achievements
than any as yet recorded will mark the
future history of the people who pause

who are helping in The Herald Christ

graduated. Because below the phllos-
ophy of giving there is a definite assur-
ance of the actual, practical meaning of
the words, TT is more blessed to give
than to receive" We are glad our
friends are taking advantage of an OPP
portunity to give to one Of the most
and altruistic causes with
which any one may be associated-the
cause which has for its object joy
bringing, joy-giving, cheer making. All
