nY ADDING the word Doodle-Dee
n to the national political vocabu-
larry. Los Angeles Herald has con-
tributed to the useful knowledge as
well as to the gayety of the nation. and
we may be considered to be a public
henefactor. unless we modestly refer
the credit to William Alsorandolph
Hearst and his troupe of political
comedians, who furnished the cause
and the inspiration of the definitive
term which is engaging the researchful
attention of etymologists and other
learned men. Atlanta Constitution has
devoted almost an entire editorial page
to throwing light on the Doodle Dees.
Many opinions are quoted in a learned
discussion of the subject, and no two
opinions are alike. Frank Stanton and
other poets have dropped into verse on
the subject. One of the poets says:
Does It walk or does It fiy3
Does 1t creep or does It LIEF
(we believe the second line could be
answered In the Affirmative, twice.
Does It belong to crawling thingsf
Or is 1t nxed with fairy wingsG
Is 1t hsh. or flesh or fowl7
Like the turtle or the owif
Has It a sting hid In its tail
That makes its victim fret or vail
Does It inhabit earth or sky?
Where does II live and when does II Ole 7
We believe its obituary notice will be
written next month, SO there is some
occasion for Frank stantons mourn
full "Alas."
Alas alas for the Doodle Dee.
He's the strangest thing today
Now you see him and now don't see.
He's here. He's there. He's away
Does he ride on the wheels OF the railroad
trains,
Or the wheels In the poiiticians' brainsf
Tell US. Tell US. There's pay for your
pains.
Oh. speak for the Doodle Dec.
Some of the definitions evoked by
our contemporary from prominent citi-
zens illustrate In an amusing way that
even the most estimable human beings
will wander around two or three blocks
to arrive at a destination which they
could reach by cutting across lots.
Some of the opinions quoted In the
Constitution are:
"A doodle dee is a politician who,
like the doodle bug. hides himself In q
deep hole and is susceptible to the
voice of a child and small bait on a
broomstraw. A doodle dee Is poll
tician who keeps well down in his

DEMOCRATIC VICTORY

YTy HAT unerring political prophet, the
New York Herald, which for
l. twenty-eigh years has been In the
habit Of canvassing the country and
making a forecast of the results OF
elections, has acknowledged reluctantly
that it is now almost certain" MT
Bryan will be the next president OF
the United States. 1t has found that
Ohio, North Dakota, Kansas and Ore
gon should be taken out of the Repub-
lican column and placed among the
doubtful states, with strong proba-
bility they will go Democratic.
The Wall Street Summary, one of the
leading New York financial organs,
blames the Republican management fol
lethargy and bungling, and says their
listlessness and apathy have cost Mr
Taft his chance of success. Taft and
Hitchcock, greatly alarmed, have re-
solved to concentrate their endeavors
on New York, Indiana and Ohio, where,
they admit, the outlook for the Repub-
lican party is gloomy.
Republican leaders already are blam-
ing President Roosevelt for the i'm
pending defeat of the G. o. P. They
object to what they call "Roosevelt's
despotical dictation." But the historians
of the future will not attribute Repub-
lican calamity to President Roosevelt's
bossism or Taft's genius for blundering.
They will merely say the psychical
moment had come for a great social
change. and that neither Taft nor
Roosevelt, even If he had been discreet
and polite instead Of indiscreet and
impolitic, could have prevented it.
Ever since Los Angeles Herald dis
covered and published the fact that the
Republican administration had sup
pressed and Republican newspapers
were ignoring a government report
which showed that the education OF
the youth Of this nation had been sac
r ced on the altar of Mammon. that
100000 children had been taken away
from school to go to work at Repub-
lican highly protected industries. thai
it was seriously proposed by Republi'
cans, not to amend this horrifying con-
dition but to do sway with high schools
in industrial centers, Los Angeles Her
aid became positively convinced thai
the election of Mr.. Bryan was rea-
sonable probability. amounting almost
to certainty, because Gods in his
heaven. and all's right with the world
Los Angeles herald., 1908-10-09

the particular. care of moral and decent
men and women. is an offense to the
sensibilities of every decently moral
person.
The Herald does not believe that q
majority of the people of Los Angeles
are yet ready for absolute prohibition.
The Herald believes also that in the
absence of a very positive majority
sentiment prohibition had better not
be tried. We are inclined rather to
believe in the efficiency of high license
and rigid regulation of the liquor busi-
ness in this city.
At the same time. if The Herald is
driven to take its choice between the
existence of the retail liquor business
and the existence of these infamous
Of the retail liquor business appear to
have constituted themselves the cham
pions, on the one hand, and absolute
prohibition on the other, there can be
no question as to which side The Her
aid, as the representative OF law and
order, will take in the matter.
| AS The Herald feels on this matter sc
do many thousands of the citizens OF
| Los Angeles feel. If the retail liquor
dealers of Los Angeles desire to protect
their business from destruction by
drastic prohibition legislation, then
they will take warning from the above
utterance of one of their own Journals
and will see to it that their influence
is not cast for the maintenance of such
"hell holes" as many of these dance
halls have been in the past.
More than that, as an evidence Of
their respect for order and decency,
they will join the decent people of the
city In their efforts to eliminate an evil
that destroys its victims and disgraces
any community that tolerates it. A
word, to the wise should be sufficient.

DECLARES ADMINISTRATION
IGNORES THE CONSTITUTION

saw, "It is a wonder they can indorse
the Declaration of independence" Now
it does seem the powers that were for

that colonial policies are at best sys-

The Republican party has always in
sisted on upholding the constitution
up to the time of the Bates treaty with
the Sulus, since when we don't hear
word about upholding the constitu-
tion. But then they are long on up
holding the flag. Since Roosevelt as

striking contrast with the teachings

CHILD LABOR

TN Los Angeles there Is not the
slightest excuse for violation of
Il the child labor law. Plenty of
adult employees may be had. If wages
are reasonable. Any conductor OF an
employment agency will testify he has
no difficulty in finding men willing to
work at almost anything, IL the pay
makes the expenditure of car fare
and time worth while. or course IL
the pleasing delusionfis to be cherished
that a man ought to work for little
or nothing. merely because he is in
sunny California, while the employer
draws down profits that are bigger
than ever, on account OF the fact that
he lessons his expenses, but not prices,
there will soon be a genuine scarcity
OF adult workers, not because the
won't work for slave wages. The prin-
cipal cause of child labor in this or
any other community is not the SUI
perior ability of children, nor their
greater reliability, but the fact half
dozen of them will work for the
wages of two or three men, and II
they are bright, intelligent boys OF
girls their work will undoubtedly equal
that of grown up persons, both in
quantity and quality. But that is not
the point. We have not yet reached
the coolie stage in this country. and
Chinese labor was not excluded from
California merely in order to give
thoughtless, selfish or unpatriotic em-
ployers a chance to substitute white
children for adult Chinese.
Lest the reader may think the tone
of this editorial is exaggerated, we call
attention to the fact that a carefully
prepared report published in our news
columns stated, among other things,
that lone firm visited by Attendance
officers w. e. White and ]. C. Rein
hard had in its employ FIVE chill
DREN, none OF whom had permits to
work" This establishment evidently
was being run" with cheap child la
bor Are there many others like it?
Every citizen would like to know.
There must be an end Of this non
sense.

Political Points
Mourning for Taft

Next to a woman scorned, hell hath
no fury like party baked of its
prey. The Republicans take the cue
rage. Whichever way they turn defeat
stares them in the eye. The Democrats
will carry New York by 100000 major
ity. There is little less than Republi-
can chance in Ohio. In Indiana the
elephant is hopelessly down of Asiatic
cholera. Already Democracy, beginning
with Illinois, sweeps the west like q
prairie fire. How could it be otherwise
in the face Of what the president is
doing?

THEY MUST SUBMIT.

Upon the first page of THE OASIS
last week there appeared an inter
view with General Luis E. Torres,
governor of Sonora, which gives
strong hope that permanent peace
with the Yaquis will be accom-
plished.
The devoutly wished termina-
ton of the protracted hostilities is
due to the policy adopted by ex-
Governor Rafael Yzabal, of arming
Page and Pima Indians. and put
ting them out in small bands
mounted, against the Yaquis, who
travel always afoot. When a band
OF the Papagoes or the Pimas get
on the trail of a band OF Yaquis
the latter are overtaken without
fail; and when they are struck
there is something doing. II the
Yaquis scatter the others scatter
after them, following individually,
each Papago running down and kill
ing his Yaqui In one encounter
band Of eleven Yaquis was an
initiated. In the fight in which
Bule, the Yaqni chief was wounded
band of eighteen lost eleven of
its members, and Bule, although
wounded, escaped capture only
by jumbing over steep bluff
and eluding pursuit in the
bushes, the PapagoeS being unable
to follow him directly. With
campaign of that Kind SO vigor-
ously pursued the Yaquis must
