Republican bisouac, and the
 faithful Loeb must have tackled down the presidents coat-tails to
 his chair.
 Deprived of speech and pen and ink, the president command cred the presence of that light winged evangel of predatory wealth, George R. Sheldon, in the national capital, and took up the question of campaign funds, which do not seem to be flowing into the Republican strong box with the usual flnidity. As re- suit of the presidents active in- terest in gathering in the scudi and the shekels, the New York Herald has discovered that the golden snow is falling more gen erously, and that several large contributions, which have been hanging back. have been shaken Gown by the presidents yigOr- ous methods. and have rattled into the treasury.
 T is is a form of Rooseveltism that we had hoped would not ap- pear in this compaign Four years ago the Standard Oil con tributed Sl00,000 te Ar- Roose- velt's election, and he personally solicited. through Ng. Hartman, a large contribution which amounted to $250, 000-and invit d that gentleman to come down and discuss with him certain features in his coming message. He has now taken charge of the fat-frying department of the campaign, with gratifying re- suits to the Republican commit tee.
 As the campaign has advanced the mists have cleared away. The people have been relieved of many misconceptions; and they behold the Republican party as it is-the party of spoliation, of graft, of extravaganza. It is cross between the wolf and the hyena. It has been buying cleo tions with the money of the pro- tected interests, and then allow owing those interests to recoup themselves with a free hand from the pockets of the people. The paramount article of itf creed is simply the principle of grand larceny, trimmed with Valen- ciennes lace. For years it has been preying upon the people and feeding them on bugaboos. A year ago 1t gave the country a financial panic and emptied the workingman's dinner pail.
 Time reveals all things. The truth is emerging from the clou S of error and misrepresentation. We are making p' ogress. Thanks

THE MOVING FINGER WRITES.


 come to an end in a little over three weeks. During that period we ought to brush all the cob- webs away and make the issues clear before the people. Many adroit efforts have been made to divert the public mind from the vital questions, and send the man who does the voting off on a trip to the moon. For about three weeks the attention of the people has been kept focused on the charges presented by Mr. Hearst against Senator Foraker, Cover nor Haskell, ex-seHator McLau- rin, Senator Bailey and others.
 Naturally these charges creat- ed d sensation; and when Mir. Hearst decIrfea that the Stand ard Oil had been driven out of the Republican into the Demo cratic party, he gave Mir. Roose- welt cue that he was quick to avail himself of. But our im- pulsive president was in such a hurry that he mounted the steed the wrong way, ard has galloped off backward. amid laughter and applause.
 Fortunately, the charge that the Democratic party is now smeared with Standard Oil was brought early enough in the cam paign to be thoroughly refuted. Mir. Haskell has demonstrated thst in sustaining the Prairie Oil company. he was recognizing Roosevelt grant. whose validity was guaranteed by the constitu- tion of the state. If there was anything reprehensible in recog- nizing the validity of the Prairie Oil franchise. then there was something infinitely more repre- hensible in granting that fran chise; and it now seems to be pretty well settled that it was MT. Roosevelt who directed Sec retary Hitchcock to issue the grant to the branch company of the Standard Oil.
 But Governor Haskell. not car ing to be an issue in the cam paign. withdrew from the treas urership of the Democratic com mittee, and hence h. cannot be an issue. He was only fictitious issue before; for he is not a can didate for office, and his connec- tion with the national committee was merely that of a receiver of funds. The effort to connect the Democratic party with the Stand ard Oil was so absurd that it has collapsed from pure inertia.
 It is time to get back to the real issues. During the next three weeks the fight must be pushed on vital lines.
 There can be little doubt that New York and other Eastern states are anxious to see an end of the Roosevelt fantasia. Even some of those journals that favor Judge Taft are basing their SUD- port on the claim that the best way to vote against Roosevelt is to vote for Taft. Eastern people find fault with MT. Roosevelt be- cause he has not the presidential manner. He seems to think that he can proclaim truth by admin istrative process. and banish CT TOT in the same way. He tries and pronounces men guilty be- fore trial, and continues to pro claim them guilty after their in nocence has been judicially estab- lished. His cavalier treatment of the constitution marks one of the most dangerous tendencies of the times.
 President Roosevelt has deter mined to make himself the main issue in the campaign. He start ed out by writing letters to MT.

CITY PASSES, THEN
REPEALS ORDINANCE
Acts FavorabIy on Hoover Street
Paving, but Before Adjournment
Vigorous Protest Is Filed
with Council

The first action of the council yes
terday was to pass the final ordinance
for the paving of Hoover street. Inc
last thing the council did before ad-
iourn1nent was to reconsider its acton
and repeal the ordinance 1t had passed
The ordinance was passed because
the city clerk reported the time for pro-
test had expired and no protest had
been received. But before adjournment
a vigorous protest, signed by what the
Drotestants claim is a large majority
of the frontage, was filed with the
council.
1t was declared by the protestants the
reason they. had not filed their oocu-
ment sooner was through an error
made in the office of the city engineer.
When they asked about the proceedings
for paving Hoover street they were told,
so they declared, the petition was
faulty and all proceedings would nave
to be abandoned.
When they learned they had been mis-
informed and the question would De
considered at Yesterdays meeting they
hastily circulated a paper and In day
secured more than majority.
They represent before paving pro
ceedings are begun the street should be
widened, a larger assessment district
should be included and, as 1t is run
way for water in the winter, 1t should
be paved with some more durable ma
terial than asphalt.
Although their protest has no legal
standing, because not filed within the
time prescribed by law, the council con-
cluded, as a majority wanted 1t, the
majority had some rights, irrespective
of legal technica1ity. To be sure 1t is
a majority, action was deferred one
week and the protest sent to the city
engineer for frontage.

PASSES ORDINANCE
OVER MAYORS VETO
MEASURE FOR DRINKING F0UN-
TAlNS BECOMES LAW
Council Previously Had Acted Favor
ably on Permit to Allow Penny
in.Slot Devices Placed
on Streets

For the first time in many months
the council yesterday passed an ordl-
nance over the mayors veto.
The ordinancse is the one granting a
privilege to r. A. McCracken to place
public drinking fountains in the
streets. These fountains for one cent,
by a penny-in- -the-slot mechanism, VIII
fill a glass with ice water, and unieed
water can be procured for nothing.
The council previously had passed the
ordinance, but the major vetoed IL
about ten days ago, giving several rea-
sons for so doing.
He said he was opposed to the sale OF
water on the streets, as water sold IN
such manner was a special privilege
which would result in profits of many
thousand dollars, and the city should
be paid for it; it was insanttary for
large number of persons to drink out
of one glass; it would give enV1ous
eastern cities an opportunity TO say
water was so scarce In Los Angeles II
was necessary to charge a penny
glass for it, and there was nothing IN
the ordinance to prohibit advertising
being placed on the fountains which
would mar the appearance of the city
A majority of the members of the
council did not consider these reasons
valid. 1t was pointed out that as 10
sanitary features it was Impossible 10
take a drink from the glass before 1t is
thoroughly rinsed, and each fountain
is connected with the sewer so over
flow will run to the street.
The permit is revokable at Will, ana
should the fountains prove objection
able the council can revoke the permit.
Councilmen Blanchard, Yonkin, wal
lace, Wren, Dromgold and Pease voteu
to pass the ordinance notwithstanding
the mayors veto, and Council Clam
pitt. Healy and Lyon voted against 1t.

BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS
is CRITICISED SEVERELY
Councilman Wallace Also Comes in
for CensGre for Permitting
Street to Be Used as
Sand Pit

The board of public works and Coun-
Gilman A. J. Wallace were arraigned
severely yesterday by Attorney Joe
Seymour, who represents number OF
property owners in the district bounded
by Jefferson and Thirty-eighth and
Olive and Flower. -.
The board was criticised because 1t
had caused a large hole to be dug IN
Thirty-seventh street to procure sand'
and Councilman Wallace because he
had done nothing to prevent.
Attorney Seymour expressed ms
opinion of Mr.. wallace by declaring
that portion of the Fifth ward had no
representative in the council, which
Mr.. Wallace stigmatized as dis
courteous"
The people in this district wish Thir-
ty-seventh street cut through, but can
not do it because of the big hole the
board has made in the street from
which 1000 loads of sand were taken.
d. K. Edwards of the board told the
council his department would fill up
the hole as rapidly as it could, and the
property owners could then go aheao
and open their street.
Councilman wallace said when IT is
decided to open the street it would be
found necessary to condemn a large
quantity of land owned by the Redon-
do railway, and which is used FOR
switching yards and this would result
I'm so great expense he did not believe
the project would ever be consum-
mated.

MUNICIPAL AFFAIRS = p =
PEOPLE MAY HAVE TO
PAY 1O-CENT FARE
LEGAL STATUS OF PRESENT
RATE QUESTIONED
City Will Join with Railway Repre-
sentatiVes in Friendly Suit to
Determine What Amount
Is Lawful

There is a chance the residents Of
Los Angeles will have to pay 10 cents
car fare for a ride within the city
limits, or any other price the Hunting
ton Railway company may decide 20
charge.
1t is but a slim chance, and the Hun
tington attorneys have assured the
councilmen there is little likelihood Of
the fare being raised. even if the cont
pany has a legal right to do so. but
the company feels sure enough of its
rights to initiate legal proceedings and
to take the matter to the supreme court
to have it decided for all time.
The city and the Huntington inter-
ests will join in a suit to be brought
to trial as soon as the attorneys can
prepare it. 1t is expected to have the
case ready for trial when the supreme
court meets in Los Angeles this WIN
ter.
The question arose when a commit
tee from the council asked the Hunting
ton representatives for 5-cent fares for
persons living in the 'shoestring" strip
as far south as Manchester avenue.
The committee. composed of Coun-
cilmen Wallace, Dromgold and Yonkin,
held several conferences with Attor-
ney w. F.. Dunn and Mr.. Wallace, and
made its report to the council yester-
day, saying it was given assurance at
first the scent fares would be granted.
Later conferences were not especially
productive of results, and at a final
one held the latter part of last week,
Mr.. Dunn told the committee scent
fares would not be granted until the
city had established it had legal right
to compel scent fares within its limits.
In order to do this Mr.. Dunn sug-
gested a friendly suit, to be taken at
once to the supreme court, and asked
Assistant City Attorney Works. who
was present at the conference, how
soon he could be ready. Mr.. Works
replied he thought he could be prepared
in a week, and both attorneys are now
poring over law books with the in
tent of establishing a legal status for
the scent fare.

TWO CITY EMPLOYEES ARE
ACCUSED OF MISCONDUCT
Inspectors in Health Department Said
to Be Too Closely Identified with
Redlieht District to Suit
Officials

Two inspectors of the health depart
ment are under a cloud. One of them,
Nick Quierolo, formerly sanitary In
spector, probably viii hear no more OF
the affair, except the housing commits
sion which had intended to name him
it's inspector. probably will select some
other; but Nick Harris, garbage In
spector, may have to answer to the
civil service commission.
Mayor Harper is investigating the
charges against the men. Quierolo, it
is said, was identified too closely with
the ''redlight" district during the palmy
days when it was unhindered in a GER
tain portion of the city. Quierolo has
been sued for rent of a large estab-
lishment in this questionable quarter
and for which he stopped paying rent
when the district was abolished and
it's inmates driven elsewhere.
Harris, it is charged, accepted pres
ents of considerable value. among them
being a clock and a phonograph from a
Chinese physician, who several times
has been fined in police court for prac-
ticing without a license.
