SAN PEDRO HARBoR

: A LPHoNzO B. BOWERS, a well
n known civil engineer, says there is
- no reason In the world why the
San Pedro harbor should not make
Los Angeles the greatest maritime
center on the Pacific coast. We may
add there is every reason why it
should. The completion Of the Panama
canal will provide the long desired all
water short route to the orient. Ships
will no longer need to take the dan
gerous voyage around the Horn. and
this alone will be an inducement to
shipping firms to lend their aid to the
maritime development of the Pacific
coast.
San Pedro harbor is already well
known and it is being closely watched
and its possibilities are being discussed
by maritime journals published in all
quarters of the world. AS Mr.. Bowers
says: Backed by the industries OF this
section the growing trade with the
orient and the fact that Los Angeles
is the nearest ocean outlet for an Inn
mense back territory, San Pedro should
rise to place of prominence that will
make it the chief port of entry on the
Pacific side when the Panama canal
is completed"
With good roads, good water and
plenty of it, a good harbor and good
people, not rashly radical. but not cow
ardly conservative, the metropolitan
future of Los Angeles Is assured.

DECLARES HERALo's EDITORIAL
sTRoNe CAMPAIGN DocUM ENT

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 25.-LEditor
Herald: / do not belong to that class
of men who believe In waiting until a
good man is dead and then go back and
gather an armful of bouquets and lay
them gently on his grave, but do be-
lieve that when good man or great
paper has performed faithfully their
duty they should hear an occasional
amen from those whom they have
served In this regard l beg to refer to
your editorial of September "a, In which
you SO completely expose the change OF
front in the Los Angeles Times.
Your editorial and the reproduction
of an editorial from the Times is SO
clear and conclusive that the Times OF
today has had an entire change of
heart from the Times of a year ago.
I trust I may be pardoned for the
suggestion to our county central COM
mittee that your editorial should be
made into a leafiet and sent to every
Republican voter in the county. Phat
the g. o. P. is on the run no sane man
can doubt. MIR. Taft has been beaten
to the ropes and repeatedly took the
count of nine, and would soon have
bken counted out. but for the interven-
ton of his foster-father, President
Roosevelt They should not. however,
be allowed to take refuge by bringing
up false issues at this stage OF the
battle.
with such documents as your able
editorial, coupled with other agencies
of the Democratic party. kept In lively
use, there is little room for doubt as 70
the result of this campaign on the 90
| of November next.
When the Times IS forced to call on
such agencies as William Randolph
Hearst to help it out of the present
dilemma. 1t would seem that the cause
was well nigh hopeless.

CENSORSHIP

A REVIVAL Of the suggestion there
IN should be book censors is a
Al natural consequence Of the sue
cess OF some recent books which rep
resent the neurotic, erotic and alto
gether "rottic" school of literature
Local Librarians here and there have
constituted themselves censors. Even
in Los Angeles we have from time to
time been threatened with an expur-
gatorial or revisionary library board
with power to withdraw objection
able" books from library circulation.
The only objection to such boards is
that sometimes they go too far and be-
come a literary Malta.
1t is alleged that with cheaper liter
ature there has arisen a demoralizing
class of books. We hope, however, no
one will try to tell us that cheap liter
ature is necessarily demoralizing. We
have heard that some of the most ex-
pensive books are also some of the
most immoral. A censorship of litera-
ture, of the press, or of the stage is
repugnant to our liberal civilization.
Necessity for it may be done away with
If an appeal is made to bookmakers
and venders to use with prudence their
undoubted power and to use 1t all for
good and not at all for evil, The time
win come when yellow Journalism and
yellow literature will not be tolerated

Direct Primary Method OF
Nomination Is Successful

the people were pitted against typical
machine bosses. In the third they
smashed the slate OF the one Wachine
in all the United States which has not
been a weapon In the hands of the
great corporations. Under the old del
egate convention system the peoples
defeats would have been as decisive as
were their victories.
La Toilette gave the direct primary
to the. people of Wisconsin. They were
grateful. They believed and do believe
in La Toilette. They put him In the
United States senate. They were i'm
mensely proud of him and devotedly
fond OF him as a public servant. La
Toilette had been busy for years build
ing up a personal machine. He at
tempted to use that machine to pre-
vent the nomination OF Governor Da-
wilson La Toilette wanted the NOM
ination for one of the engineers of his
machine Davidson was good pub-
lie servant. The people Of Wisconsin
approved of La Toilette as senator,
but they declined to submit to him as
a boss, and gave him a demonstration
of the benehcent possibilities of the
direct primary in the shape of a 10000
majority for Davidson, says the San
Francisco Call.
The people of California have within
their grasp the power that the people
of Wisconsin, Kansas and Washing
ton have exercised. Assembly con-
stitutional amendment No. 8, which
vii, be submitted to the voters at the
November election, will clear the way
for the enactment of better primary
law than has either of those states,
A tremendous popular vote for that
amendment will go q long way toward
irsuring the enactment of such a law
1t is the duty of every eiector who
believes in free government to vote
s'Yes'' on assembly amendment No. 8.

mHp direct primary system Of nom

N HE direct primary system OF NOM
mating partisan candidates for
II public Office passed out of the
realm of experiment six years ago,
when it was given it's first state wide
test in Minnesota. Machine politicians
throughout the country viewed with
alarm the procession of states which
in rapid succession Joined the direct
primary pioneer. The bosses met pop
Iilar demands for the direct primary
with pleas for time. They bade the
people wait until this system has been
proved. II is only an experiment as
yet"
That plea has force no longer. If
the direct primary idea had not been
proved sound in Crawford county.
Pennsylvania, fifty years ago, the last
yestige of honest doubt was swept
away in 1908. The direct primary has
triumphantly withstood the supreme
test within the last three months.
The defeat of Senator Ankeny IN
Washington, the retirement of Senator
Long for Bristow in Kansas and the
triumphant denomination of Governor
Davidson in Wisconsin furnished
proofs no false friend of genuine pop
ular government can controvert. In
every case the people won--won
against tremendous odds. In Wash
ington and Kansas they threw on
the .yokes of corrupt federal and rail-
road machines. In Wisconsin they re-
| fused to turn down a faithful public
servant at the behest of La Toilette,
in whose personal honesty they be-
| lieved, but whom they declined to
accept In the role of a good" boss
and monitor OF their political con-
sciences.
These three great states presented
both extremes of the peoples fight for
unbossed political action. In two states
