TRUSTS AND DISTRUST

TN HIS address to the Republican
national convention, Temporary
Il Chairman Burrows spoke OF the
Republican victory in 1904, and then
asked: ''In view of this Endorsement it
becomes pertinent and opportune to in
quire what has the Republican party
done In the last four years of govern
ment control to forfeit public confidence
or create distrust in it's capacity for
future administration? The Republi-
can party itself supplies an answer.
In the Republican platform Of 1896
were the following words, which can be
applied with literal truth to condi-
lions produced by Republicanism unre-
strained by respect for public opinion
and disdainfully negligent of the first
principles OF Amerleanism: I'm the
broad effect of it's policy the party
has precipitated panic, blighted in
dustry and trade with prolonged de-
preston, closed factories, reduced work
and wages, halted enterprise and Grip
pied American production. Every con-
sideration of public safety and indi-
vidual interest demands that the gov
eminent shall be rescued from the
hands of those who have shown them
selves incapable Of conducting it with
out disaster"
We have big, business-like country.
The annual volume of our business
transactions is huge. To what is the
great commercial and business success
of the United States to be attributed ?
TO natural resources alone? Certainly
not. All the natural resources were
here long before the English-speaking
white man arrived. To natural re-
sources, USED INTELLIGENTLY,
the great success of the United States
must be attributed. Industry, enter
prise, skill, experience, all counted in
the making of the country. But none
Of the ordinary rules Of business had
as much influence upon the good for
tune Of the United States as had a
greater rule, the rule Of Aitruism.

LOS ANGELES, July 1s.-[Editor

RECALLS MARK HANNAS PROPHECY AND
TELLS HOW REPUBLICANS FULFILLED IT

Los ANGELES, July 16.-[Editor
Herald: Senator Mark Hanna, one
of the most astute politicians and or
ganizers the Republican party has ever
had, on February, 1908, in Cleveland,
Ohio, at a dinner rendered to a well
known New York financier, said:
you gentlemen had better trim your
sails, for indications point to the fact
that one of the greatest panics the
world has ever seen is about to occur
in the United States. Workingmen of
the country are disconnected with their
wages, and hold that in proportion to
the great increase in the cost of food,
wages have not kept pace. That is a
statement that can be readily proven
by either Bradstreet's or Dun's, and the
quicker we recognize this phase of the
political question the better 1t will be
for US and the business men whose duty
it is to help conserve.
Il am anything but optimistic on the
situation. 1 see very plainly the storm
clouds gathering on the political hori-
zon. Workingmen are absorbing
quickly the revolutionary spirit which
is being inculcated by the Socialists
who are spreading their propaganda
broadcast, and it is bearing fruits in
the ranks of the workers, and we capt.
talists had better not close our eyes to
these pregnant facts, but on the other

WHITTIER SCANDAL

NJ HILE it may be true that Mr..
w Desmond's action and attitude
with regard to Whittier state
school may have caused serious fric-
ton In the board, it is equally true he
has been justified in calling attention
to the deplorable conditions which were
existing unrebuked in an institution
which was supposed to be reformatory.
According to testimony. not only were
bad habits tolerated at Whittier, but
gross immortality winked at. Under
the conditions which prevailed in the
misnaned institution, it must have had
deform-atory and not reform-atory
effect on the characters of susceptible
and weak-willed young people placed
within reach of its influences. Mr..
Desmond's contention is that political
influences were allowed to outweigh
all others at the reform school. Long
before he made the charges now under
investigation, Mr.. Desmond said to
friends that Superintendent Greeley
was allowing the school to be run
along evil lines and he would spend
every cent of the S250.0O0 he was worth
to get Greeley out and put the school
on the right basis" This statement is
very. very far from being that of
trouble maker, or a busybody, or
man with spite-ax to grind 1t was
evidently prompted by conscientious
good citizenship and desire to remedy
a disgraceful condition before it went
from bad to worse. AS Mr.. Desmond's
position in the matter becomes clearer,
as his motives become better under
stood, It becomes more and more APP
parent he has placed the public under
great obligation to him for undertake
ing dutifully and without regard to
possible consequences to himself most
disagreeable task. We hope sincerely |
that Whittier reform school will be re-
formed, that politics will not be per-
mitted to mismanage it, but that it will !
be restored to its original purpose and,
under the skillful guidance Of Mr.. Des-
mond and others like him, Will become
an institution useful and reformatory
by nature as we'll as by name.

DANCE HALLS

~ ooNER or later every great city
IN in the Union has either had to
~ abolish cheap public dance halls
or conduct them under such restrictions
that they do not offer enough profit to
their managers to make It worth their
while to continue them. Dance halls
cannot be conducted with absolute pro-
priety. The ideas of young woman
who is persuaded to go to g. low dance
hall rapidly undergo a change. She
thinks she is seeing life. The greener
and the more inexperienced young
person is the more susceptible is he or
she to the demoralizing influences called
seeing life. There is enough misery in
the world without adding to it, and
dance halls are more apt to add to the
misery Of the world than to its happi-
ness. To these cheap halls young
women are attracted. They meet the
fascinating youth who wears his hat
on the back of his head, in the fashion,
as he fondly believes, of the Bowery
tough. He is a verdant Bowery tough,
but he doesn't realize that and in mis-
chief making qualities ne is perhaps the
equal of the New York boy. The girl
thrown into this society soon learns
the truth of the Biblical statement,
Evil communications corrupt good
manners" We are all in measure re-
sponsible for the dance hall evil in Los
Angeles. The churches, schools and
homes of the community should de-
mand protection for the youth of the
community which can be given only
by the restriction or suppression of
dance halls. If fathers and mothers
would unite in a protest against the
folly of wasting the energies and the
money of the city in a silly crusade
against free speech. which is doing a
great deal of harm to the reputation of
Los Angeles, and In a petition asking
for the protection of the youth of the
city from dissolute characters and de-
PRAYED and debasing influences, 1t is
possible the authorities might concen-
trate their energies on effecting re-
forms which would make Los Angeles
a purer and more wholesome city.

G. o. P. SCARED

4 LII OUR Republican contemporaries
are giving evidences of their be-
"A lief that Bryan will be elected,
are sparing no pains to create panicky
conditions, and are themselves setting
the example of lily livered cowardice.
Some of them are endeavoring to make
Republican capital out OF the report
that Lloyds, the London underwriting
firm, has accepted new risk. During
the last few days the firm has been
writing policies on the election of
William J. Bryan"
This will certainly be a busy year
for the campaign liar. All previous
flights of imagination will be trans
cended by him. All records will be
broken. He will find his services in
demand. We expect to see advertise
ments like this in the leading Republic
can morning papers: Wanted, imme-
diately. the services Of a few fresh,
imaginative campaign liars. None
whose invention foundries are not In

The wild alarm exhibited in what we
may call professional Republican cir
Giles shows there is every probability of
the greatest Democratic victory of
modern times. When a Republican
brother says "Oh, no, Bryan can't win"
and then turns around and bowls to a
foreign insurance company to protect
him against the election of Bryan, and
to accept for the protection an extrav-
agant premium. 1t shows the Republi-
can brothers words are stouter than
his heart. The manner in which he is
talking with his money contradicts the
manner in which he is talking with his
mouth. His money talk says Bryan
VIII be the next president OF the United
States.

he is prosecuted. But-and here comes
the comparison-HE is NOT AR
RESTED; he is merely SUMMONED.
In other words. the policeman takes his
name and address and he receives a
notice in due course to appear on a
given day to answer the charge. 1t is
the same in the case of a common as
+sault, driving or shooting without a
license, or any such offense not a
felony.
Compare this with our absurd (and
oppressive) California custom of haul
ing person off to Jail on any flimsy
little charge, smirching with the prison
faint and indignity one who may after
all be proved innocent; overcrowding
the jail unnecessarily, and in any case,
as mentioned in previous letter, be-
ginning to punish the accused BEFORE
HE rs CONVICTED. Here is where
the British method scores over the
American. I should not wonder if this
is largely accountable for the keener
appreciation of personal liberty in the
Briton. He has not had his self-re-
spect blunted and dulled (as has the
American) by police bullying, by need
less arrests, nor, may I add by the
continual passing under his notice of
such brutally, as we'll as absurdly,
heavy penal sentences as lin the "old
country'') would raise a riot of public
indignation, yet here are too common
for comment. BENZ. WHARTON.

III HE city of Los Angeles has just
sold $2OOO0,00O of AZ per cent
Il water bonds. to be taken in in
stallments. as needed, not exceeding
$5,OOO,OOO in one year, at premium of
one-quarter of l per cent for all bonds
to be taken before June 30, 1910. one
half of 1 per cent for those taken in
1911 and / per cent for those taken in
1912. Those terms are not nearly so
good as those obtained recently by
many smaller eastern cities, but as a
rule those bonds were probably sold to
home institutions for their own use.
In such cases the bonds are usually
free from taxation and therefore can
be sold at higher prices. The Los
Angeles bonds were sold to New
York syndicate, which, of course, buys
them to sell again at a profit to those
seeking investments and who must pay
taxes on them unless they prefer to
commit perjury.
This city is about to offer $3,000,000
worth of per cent bonds which will
probably be taken by our home banks,
which will not, however, bid more
than they figure out that eastern buy
ers will offer. The feature of the Los

LAND TRUST

A HIGHLY esteemed correspondent
| ~ calls our attention to possible
condition which is suggested by
the immense area of the landed possess
slons of Governor Taft and other veal
| thy Americans. Under our present
system there is absolutely nothing to
prevent one man from purchasing,
fencing and holding for his own use
one acre of ground, one thousand acres
or enc million acres. In fact. If a COM
bination of extraordinary rich men
should see fit to pool several fortunes
there would be nothing to prevent them
from buying up an entire state-Rhode
Island, California or any other state
in the Union. If John d. Rockefeller,
Morgan, the Goulds, Harrimans and
Vanderbilts should decide to form
syndicate for the purpose of acquiring
land they could annex a huge slice
of the United States and bring into eff
fective being the most tryannical trust
of all. a land trust. If any reader
should think this acquisitive feat is
beyond the widest dreams of even
American millionalres we can MS dt-
tention to the fact it has already been
attempted In Scotland, where Winans
gained notoriety by purchasing large
slice of a Highland shire" and by
evicting tenant families and wilder
Messing their farms in order to estao-
fish the biggest deer forest in the world.
Even in Scotland, where feudalism
affects the national life and where the
game laws are more rigidly observed
than the Ten Commandments, there was
vigorous protest against the PROPOSE
ton of the land greedy millionaire, and
hostile demonstrations compelled him
to moderate his ambitions to be the
owner of broad acres and dun deer and
the oppressor of people. Still he gave
an illustration of what an immensely
wealthy and not too scrupulous man
might do with regard to land, and the
contingency suggested by our cores
pendent is far from being beyond prob
ability.

GOOD ROADS

1H RIENDS Of good roads must re-
double their efforts as the time
for the bond election draws
nearer. There is nothing truer than
the statement that good results do not
accomplish themselves, and that no
achievement is possible without well
directed effort. The success of the
good roads bonds issue is of the utmost
Importance to Los Angeles. All the
country tributary to this great city
will be benefited by oad-improvement.
Land values will be enhanced, the vol
ume of business will be increased.
Good roads will facilitate the move
ment Of products to market. They will
give facilities Of communication and
greater opportunities for sociability
among farm or ranch neighbors, help
to promote community spirit and that
sense Of identity Of general interests
which invariably adds to the efficiency
and prosperity of a population. There
are no reasonable arguments against
the good roads bonds. The issue is
proposed because of an actual, existing
necessity, and the sooner this necessity
is recognized the better 1t win be for
ali concerned. California's reputation
for good roads viii add to national
prestige which is already very great;
in several respects greater than that Of
any other state in the Union. There's
only one California" and 1t is right
this magnificent state should have the
best of everything and everything of
the best. Roads should be in keeping
with the general character Of the state,
ana, like our far-famed climate. should
ta ''the best In the world"

sIMoN-PURE DEMOCRACY

TN SHARP distinction to the point
less paragraphs and the spineless-
i. ness of that extraordinary produc-
ton. the national Republican PLATFORM
rings the following outspoken dehnltlVe
declaration of the Democratic plat
form: "The Democratic party stands
for democracy: the Republican party
has drawn to itself all that is aristo-
cratic and plutocratic. The Demo-
cratic party is the champion OF equal
rights and opportunities to all, ana
the Republican party is the party or
privilege and private monopoly. Inc
Democratic party listens to the voice
of the whole people and gauges prog
ress by the prosperity and advance
ment of the average man; the Repub-
lican party is subservient to the COM
paratively few who are the bene-
ficiaries of governmental favoritism.
We invite the cooperation of all, re-
CARELESS Of previous political afhliation
or past differences, who desire to pre-
serve a government of the people, by
the people and for the people, and who
favor such an administration of gov
eminent as viii insure, as well as hui
man wisdom can. that each citizen
shall draw from society reward COM
mensurate with his contribution to the
welfare of society" In this way the
greatest good for the greatest number
will be assured, there will be justifi-
cation of the wisdom of the fathers who
decided that in the republic everybody
must have a chance; that there must
be equal rights for all, and special
privileges for none.
