Thus are the advantages to combined capital illus
trated in the experience of two of the leading pro-
tected trusts. The tariff laws have given them all
the benefits they enjoy over operators under COM
petitive, non-protected, system.

Two Protected Industries.

That the paternalSt1C protection of American labor
does not bring real results under the scheme of the
tariff, genuine results at all times, at least is just
now demonStrable in connection with of the
highly protected industries of this country the in
dustry represented by the supreme triumph of pro-
lection, the steel trust
Thousands of that employed in the
shops of this American monopoly are idlng away
their time seeking wages in the shops of foreign
countries where the manufacturers of steel products
keep the wheels moving through their willingness
to sell their goods at reasonable profits.
Without much doubt, the manufacturers of Ameri-
can steel could dispose of their wares at home il
they were willing to accept hard times prices. But
they demand the double pay of monopoly their pro-
ducts remain in their warehouses and the protec-
ton that does not protect toll sends the workngmen
to foreign countries to the poor house.
The vast combination of wealth known as the steel
trust controls also most of the iron mines of the
country and thus in another department of labor its
inactivity feeds idleness while men, and chill
dren suffer prvation or something
In the anthracite coal district of Pennsylvania,
thirty-eight co11eries are now closed and its en-
poyes idling away their time doing such odd
jobs as they may be able to pick up. The demand
for coal has been affected by hard times but the
coal trust, protected by the benefcent laws of the
country, will abate cent of its charges to the
consumer.
1t could sell its coal if it would take hard times
prices and its men would have employment. But it
knows that temperature will eventually compel the
consumer to beg, borrow steal the money with
which to warm himself and it knows further that no
foreigner can invade its territory with ship loads
of fuel for the suffering, for the government sign of
mo entrance" guards the ndentations of the coast
The that dig the coal but $1.58 per ton,
but that sufices to keep the wolf from the door
while they are work. The owners 1essees of the
mines receive $375 ton at the mouths of the mines
after all expenses have been paid and $175 ton
for transporting the coal far as their own roads
reach in the direction of the markets.
They could afford to make reductions in charges
consumers, in the interest of their employees, but
such course would violate system under which
hey operate The price of anthracite, under that
ysem is at its minimum in May. In July the price

boa and San Pedro. a glance at the map
will show you that, for some fifteen or
twenty miles, the Pacific Electric tracks
skirt close to the shore line To the west
they reach San Pedro and to the east Bal

future great port where the commerce of
the hemispheres will discharge for the vast
empire of the southwest. Straight south
from Los Angeles, twenty three miles, is
Long Beach. 1t is commonly called the At
lantic City of the Pacific. 1t has popua-

tages of a progressive city and all the at
fractions of the most down to-date seaside
resort. without seeing Long Beach one
leaves Southern California without knoW-
edge as to all its capabilities for enjoy
ment. Beyond Long Beach is Alamitos
Bay (famous for its fish dinners at Inlet
Inn) Bay City, Seaside Park, Hunting ION
Beach, Newport and Balboa. Each place
has it's own vital claim upon the visitor or
pleasure seeker, its own appeal to the resi-
dent Each is distinct. with some feature
that makes special claim upon public at.en-
ton and yet each is a delightful seaside
resort. The ride to Balboa is for dozen
miles directly upon the water front with
the surf breaking close to the rails and
the twin peaks of Catalina looming blue
and fair on the ocean horizon,

ONE OF the worlds most celebrated
~ mountain trolley trips is that up Mt
Lowe. The splendor and diversity of seen
cry unrivalled. The line runs via the
ostrich Farm, Pasadena, Altadena and the
Poppy Fields to Rubio canyon. From here
a 3O00-foot cable incline road conveys the
passenger to Echo mountain, where the
trolley is resumed for a fve-mle trip to
Alpne-probably the most remarkable as
it is the most enhancing piece of railroad
in the world. Alpine Tavern is only 1100
feet below the summit of Mt. Lowe, reached
by an excellent trail for which burros are
available to those who object to the climb
There are many attractive and inspiring
points of vantage in the near neighborhood
of the hotel, The trip consumes two hours
each way.

ANOTHER SAD DEATH.

Mrs. Thomas Melton departed
this life at her home in this city
last Saturday evening. Her i'll
ness was of short duration, and
came as shock to her relatives
and many friends.
She was the daughter of Mr..
and Mrs..J. Harris Wyly, and was
% years old in April, last. She
was married to Thomas Melton in
July, 1907. Her married life,
while it was brief, was of the most
pleasant character, both being
true to their matrimonial VOWS
and devotedly attached to onean-
other. AS a daughter she was de-
voted, gentle and obedient; as a
wife, loving and affectionate; as q
friend, kind and true.
The funeral services were con-
Quoted on Sunday afternoon by
Rev. Eugene nj. Mathis, after
which her remains were consign-
ed to the tomb in Camden Gene
terry. The large gathering that
witnessed the last sad rites to her
memory attests in more eloquent
terms the esteem and high regard
IN which she was held here where
she grew to beautiful womanhood
than is possible to convey in this
brief article.
