Sketch of the Speaker.
DR.. Francis Is a Canadian, born in
Nova Scotia, son of a country physi-
clan, one of ten brothers, six of whom
are Baptist ministers. He has been
a college professor, a business man, a
secretary of a large city Y. M. c. A,
a pastor in New hampshire for three
years, New York city for eight years,
in Boston at the Clarendon Street
Baptist church, m year, and five
years in the e~vangeiistic work. DR..
Francis, though having filed some of
the largest pulpits in the gift of the
Baptist people, and though having
been a college professor, yet he has
pavar hn1 n n oxtc cphnn1inu in q Gam-
mary, a college, a high school, or even
an academy. Yet doubtless no man in
the denomination is more broadly and
literally educated. Laramie is very
fortunate in securing the services of
DR.. Francis in the name herein in
dictated, for he has engagements in the
larger cities extending over two years.

CHURCH MUSIC

MI USIC in Los Angeles churches is
N truly a part of the worship be-
-NtA cause it Is we'll chosen, appro-
pirate, artistic, elevating and inspiring
Here the musical part of the service is
appreciated generally as it is in nc
other city of English speaking civiliza-
ton. Churches of all creeds worship
sacred art as something with which
time may be filled in while the collec-
tion is being taken up or the minister
is resting and preparing himself for
the task of delivering or reading his
sermon. Organists, soloists and choris-
ters of the highest order of merit take
part in the services of all Los Angeles
churches. Merely to read the programs
as they are announced from week to
week is to gain a generous musical
education, or to add to ones store of
knowledge on the subject
In the Episcopal choirs and probably
in others sight reading is taught to
the singers, and an intelligent boy
Der of an Episcopal choir will soon find
himself in possession of a store of
musical knowledge which will in many
respects put him on a level with
graduates of expensive Conservatives
and in other respects will qualify him
to excel them, for all his experience
is practical and nothing that he learns
is not put to the test.

CROMWELL TAFT

n NE of the chief grievances of Amer
lean business men in the Philip
~ pine islands is founded on the al
legged Cromwellian policies of the Taft
administration of the islands. Ameri-
cans who had invested their capital in
the islands believed they should have
something to say about the govern
ment. They thought taxation without
representation was an un-American
practice. They demonstrated. AS to
what happened to the Americans who
petitioned Taft to allow them to have
a voice in the government, let us quote
from the Manila Review of Trade and
Price Current: 1.-The business men Of
the Philippine islands have been told,
when they felt called upon to offer ad-
vice to those in authority, that if they
did not like the way the government
was being conducted in these islands
they could leave. This is true They
have that right left, if none other. They
do not believe that those In authority
here can much longer blind the Ameri-
can people by referring to the business
resent millions of capital, as camp fol-
lowers and adventurers. They recall,
many of them, that during the carpet
bag government in the south just such
statements as these were sent north in
answer to charges Of official extrava-
gance made by the business interests of
the southern states. Fortunately for
the southern people, they were nearer
the throne of mercy than are the people
of the Philippine islands. and their
wrongs were redressed more quickly.
This lesson of forty years ago should
have taught the United States govern
ment the folly of intrusting the lives
and property of millions of human be-
ings to the keeping of one man (Taft)
who is without interest or stake in a
country 10000 miles away. The govern
ment here should in some degree be re-
sponsible to the people here, and until
such is the case the situation will grow
steadily worse rather than better, and
remain A NIGHTMARE AND A
SCANDAL to the people of the United
States"

CLEAN DEMOCRACY

DY ASSERTING it's position of alb
II solute independence of the South
-A| ern Pacific railroad and all inter-
ests and influences which have tried
to interfere with freedom of politics in
California and by repudiating Boss
McNab and all he stands for, the Cal
ifornia representatives of the party OF
Jefferson emphasized the fact that De-
mocracy is free from the restraining
influences and entangling alliances
which thwart, interfere with, mould or
corrupt the Republicanism of this
state. With strength and vigor derived
from the consciousness of the advan-
tages it reaps from it's sturdy indepen-
dence of everything except the fun
damental principles of Democracy and
the first principles of Americanism, the
party will win the confidence and sup
port of all classes of American citizens
who use their brains and refuse to act
upon secondhand opinions or to have
others make up their minds for them
The Democracy will never be forgetful
of the fight made by Theodore Bell 1oI
the honor of the party and for its best
interests. With characteristic courage
he stood firm for the right and for
principle. In recognizing the cham
pion of decency the Democratic party
has won for itself recognition among a
large element of the community, on the
support of which it may now count
with confidence, that element which
believes that politics should be synony-
nous with patriotism and that the
Democracy should be true to its ira
ditions and represent never the adj
vantage of an interest, but always the
greatest good for the greatest number
Thousands of voters will flock to the
Democratic standard this year wher
that standard is borne by good mer
and true. These thousands of voters
are susceptible to only one influence
the Influence of honesty. When they
realize the emancipated Democracy
represents all that is best in American
citizenship, that it represents every
thing included in the noble word Amer
icanism, they will rally round the flae
of political independence and purity
challenge the right of the Southern
Pacific machine to dominate the poll
tics of California and by supporting
the Democracy make of no avail the
shameless Vaccinations of the farcl'
cal Republican political mummery al
Sacramento.

WORLDWIDE lENT'ERES
THE JAPANESE IN SEATTLE
BY FREDERIC }. HAsKIN

as menials they ought to obey orders
and do the work assigned them with u
proper spirit. Instead of this the aV-
erage Japanese domestic takes his SIT
uation merely as q makeshift. and all
the while he is performing a servants
tasks he does so with the full belief
that he is the equal or superior of
every member OF the household In
which he is employed. The least little
friction never fails to bring this point
to the surface. One lady expressed the
experience of many housewives on the
Pacific coast when she said: "The
Japanese are too proud and sensitive to
work out. got so I was afraid to tell
one of them to sprinkle the lawn for
fear 1 would insult some of his an
cestors or step on the toes of the
mikado."
A saloon keeper who wanted a por-
ter was heard bewailing the fact that
he had to depend upon the Japanese for
this kind of work. He formerly -h-d
Chinese who stayed with him through
a long terms of years, and only gave
up his job after he became too old to
work. The old Chinaman pattered
around the place in his sandals, doing
his work quietly and painetakingly. He
had no ambition, but he was fine
porter. Since the old man went away
there has been a succession of Japanese
boys in his stead. AS yet none of them
have remained over six months. They
invariably go to night school, study
English around the place during the
day, adopt american clothes and soon
quit their Jobs.

CLEAR, CRISP AND CLEAN
GOOD ROADS

ID ROBERT ). BURDETTE'S
II. good roads" are moral, not lit
AZ eral roads; but the simile he used
in his sermon Sunday is apt and effec-
tive. He hit the nail right on the head
and drove 1t home when he said: There
are thousands of people. citizens and
taxpayers some office holders, some of
the people who rule us, who don't want
good roads. Worse than that, they try
hard to tear up the good roads that
have been established in the clean resi-
dence districts, and in their place run
extensions of Also street, the rum lane
of Main, the slum trails of the red-light
district. All the year round and year
after year eternal vigilance is the price
of clean streets, incessant warfare
against the men who would defile the
cleanliness of the good streets, with
complaisant officials to assist them.
And if for a weary moment the resi-
dents sleep down swoops a rum buzzard
on the unmatched corner with a license

board authority, watching, not the

Royal Arch"
Good roads in conduct and good roads
in material fact are both needed in Cal
ifornia. We will take up the line of
DR.. Burdette's thought, with thanks to-
him for the suggestion, and add that
good roads and clean streets in the lit
eraI sense tend to promote the moral
good of community. When street is
allowed to run down, whether as a re-
suit Of bad paving or of undesirable
stores it is hard work to restore it to
respectability, but the quickest way to
bring it back to a decent condition is
to pave the street and grade it and
light it, and give 1t a down-to-date
roadway and sidewalk. Similarly, good
roads have an elevating effect on all
the country districts traversed by them,
and even on the conduct and charac-
ter, manners and morals of the rural
residents. This is a demonstrable fact.

APPEAL TO CAESAR

the convention will send message or

feller asking him to confer with other
great financiers and devise ways and
means of permitting workers to earn

proposal is not fantastic and is not de-
signed merely to annoy Rockefeller'

PHILIPPINE SCANDAL

n EPUBLICAN financial administra-
h tion in the Philippine islands
~ brought the subject-province to
the verge of financial panic long before
a panic overlook and demoralized the
United States. To begin with, the
islands were handicapped by an out
rageous, preposterous gouge salary list.
The secretary of the interior of the
United States receives 1000 per an
mum. But in that colossal region, the
Philippine islands, where the RESPONSE
bilities of the secretary of the interior
are so vast that they daunt all but the
stoutest-hearted Republican politicians
the secretary of the interior draws
SIS, 900, and it is good United States
money, not deprecated currency or
Mexican silver. The secretary of the
treasury of the United States holds a
responsible position, justifying the pay
ment of sum that will keep him out
of debt His salary is $4,000 a year. But
the secretary of the. treasury of the
Philippine islands, which, as one may
see, must be much Weather and more
important than the Unlteu otales'
draws $4,000 a year.
No one can underrate or underesti-
mate the commercial interests of Uncle
Sam, and the secretary of commerce
receives 1000 a year. But far greater
is the responsibility attaching to the
position in the wonderful Philippine
islands, where the secretary of COM
merce receives $4,000 per annum, in
order that he may assist Philippine in
dustries to maintain their leadership in
the marts of the world.
Education in the United States is not
deemed worthy of cabinet representa-
ton. We have outgrown our original
weakness for instruction III the three
RS and the art of correct thinking.
The Republican party has changed all
that. We have a commissioner of edu-
cation to whom Uncle Sam pays $500
a year for teaching the young idea how
to quit school and go to work in COM
petition with adult labor. So much
more important is it deemed by the
Republican government that the chill
dren of the Filipinos should be edu-
Gated thoroughly than that those of
Americans should receive even pub
lie school education that the chief of
the Philippine department OF public in
struction-the head schoolmaster--re-
ceives $4,000 a year. In minor offices
and subordinate positions in the Phil
lppines double the number of public
servants needed were employed. Chief
ly responsible for the Philippine scan
dal was the Cirthy gentleman who will
be Republican candidate for president
of the United States. 1t is not TO be
wondered that the Filipinos say his
name rhymes easily and smoothly with
graft"

LOS ANGELES

AIO doubt there is both reason and
truth in Prof B. r. Baum
~ gardt's prophecy that ten years
hence Los Angeles will be one of the
most beautiful cities in the world
Nothing can interfere with fulillment
except the failure of citizens to think
in terms of the prediction and govern
their actions accordingly. Prof. Baum
gardt says the proposed museum of
science will be an accomplished fact
that an art gallery viii be established
and Los Angeles streets bordered by
trees. Not only do we believe Los
Angeles will be one of the most beau
tiful cities in the world, but that it
will be the headquarters of literature,
art and music in the western hemi-
sphere. The tide of publishing at
present moves from east to west. Even
native Californian authors, with few
exceptions, send their best produc-
tions to eastern publishing houses. We
believe Los Angeles viii become the
publishing center OF the western
states, and that Los Angeles book lists
soon will be in demand all over the
country. 1t is absurd to say distribu-
ton from the west eastward cannot
be accomplished. California fruit has
captured the eastern market and is
distributed and marketed successfully
from the west eastward. California
brain products could capture the mar
kets of the country. There is no
reason why they should not. There
is every reason why they should. The
day will come when Los Angeles will
no longer be flattered when called by
some highly superior eastern reviewer
the Boston or Edinburgh of the far
west. On the contrary Boston and
Edinburgh will be giddy with pride
when an impartial critic compares them
10 Los Angeles. From publishing
and literary point of view Boston will
be the Los Angeles of the east and
Edinburgh the Los Angeles Of the old
world.
