PROSPERITY

4 SPLENDID re 'overy from finan-
n cial depression mas been made by
~A- the railroads. business Is booming
and there is not the slightest indication
of the depression which sometimes af-
fects the United States before a presi-
Dental campaign. From all quarters
of the country come reports of revival
of trade and renewal of Industrial
activity, which bear out the statement
of the railroads that traffic is normal,
and that talk of hard tines Is out
of date. Prospects of a bumper crop
and optimist reports from all parts of
the Union indicate the material re-
sources which have helped to make the
United States the foremost country in
the world may still be depended on.
There should be work for everybody,
and abundance for everybody; and if
there Is not, 1t will indicate that the law
of supply and demand, of work and
wages, is being interfered with. The
election of Democratic president with
positive assurance that interference
will cease, and that the strong arm of
the law will protect the nation from
the predatory trusts and criminal con-
spiracies for the purpose of affecting
or influencing trade conditions, would
be the best possible assurance of pros
perity. The Republican party gives no
promise of reform or of an effort to
protect the nation from the spoilers.
To the Democratic platform and the
leaders of the Democracy the people
must look for deliverance. The pros
perity of the United States is their
prosperity. They have helped to bring
1t about. They are entitled to expect a
share of the prosperity; at the very
least, they should have food, clothing,
shelter and education for their children.

HARBoR DAY

TN the east, collegiate and intercoi-
legiate regattas are attracting
= thousands OF spectators. But San
Pedro will provide the regatta" which
viii attract the attention of the whole
world. The transpaciflc yacht con
test will make all the minor affairs
In the east look like toy races. Harboi
day at San Pedro will be one of the
greatest in the history OF California.
Indeed, never at any place at any re-
corded time In the history of the United
States has there been such significant
Fourth as that which will be celebrated
at San Pedro. Not only will Independ-
ence day be honored, but the fact that
Southern California possesses one OF
the finest harbors In the world Will be
advertised. Competing yachts. released
by a signal from the White House, will
make the opening dash of their long
sail across the Pacific. which will en-
phasize the fact that the trade route
between San Pedro and the Orient Is
the safest and the most direct. Harbor
day is of prime Importance to Califor-
MIA, and in addition 1t will give to all
who visit San Pedro to participate
'jolly good time" which they will re-
member with pleasure and gratitude as
long as they live.

CHAIRMAN BELL

n HEODORE A. BELL has been
chosen for temporary chairman
u of the Democratic national con-
vention. This Is inspiriting and en-
couraging news. Not only does this
choice bring Mr.. Bell and California
definitely to the front and make Gal
ifornia's favorite son" a possible or
vention for the vice presidential NOM
nation, but 1t Is a guarantee that
Democratic attack will be directed
strongly. forcefully, aggressively,
against the greatest weakness In the
Republican party, its neglect to abolish
child labor as soon as that curse had
begun to make inroads on the schools
of the United States and increase the
percentage of illiterates in the popula-
ton. Mr.. Bells opinions with regard
to social subjects are we'll known. He
is reformer and a believer In the
first principles of Americanism. In his
address will be the keynote OF the
Democratic convention, which, in its
uecldTdtiOH OF principles, Will uOuDlleSs
respond to the appeal of Mr.. Bell for
the working women and the toiling
children of the land. If the cause of
these poor sufferers from present
economic conditions under Republican
rule is not espoused by philanthropic
Democratic statesmen then vain is
their hope, for other champions they
have none. With program of tariff
reform, square meals and a square
deal, education for the children, work
for the workers and happy homes for
home makers, the Democratic party
will reach the hearts of the people of
the United States. will command their
sympathy, awaken their patriotism
and receive their votes. With such a
program the Democrats are bound to
win, and having won they must make
good" Grave indeed will be their
responsibility and great the task to
which they must apply themselves.

constantly that he was alive. He
realized he had his liberty. but he was
aware there could be no pursuit of
happiness for him unless. he could eat
something. He had managed for three

He had walked the streets until he
was almost exhausted. He had tried

had ~.Jpealed to them. But this man,
who would have been allowed to beg
for organized charity and who had
doubtless been solicited by boys and
girls who were begging for organized
charity, was not allowed to beg for
Tom Bell. You see, Tom Bell was not

crime shaped itself in all Its hideous

MYTHOMANIA

NTYTHOMANIA is new word. IL
WI Is the term which scientific his
4sk torians of the future will apply
TO that peculiar form of activity called
yellow Journalism, which is most un-
happy when the truth is plainest ana
most unyarnished, which refuses to De-
lieye that truth Is stranger than nction
and in seeking vindication points trl-
umphantly to the undeniable fact that
fiction is a better seller than history
or philosophy. We pity the future MIS-
torian when he encounters examples OF
mythomania. When he reads news
papers of a certain type he Will begln
to believe the United States or the
early twentieth century was composed
of the choicest collection of fishing club
members ever assembled under one
sky. He will read that every bride
was beautiful, every bridegroom hand
some, every speaker eloquent, every
lawyer able, every minister convincing,
every banker the most wonderful finan-
cier. but If anything should happen
which made 1t necessary for the my
thomaniac to record the degradation OF
the objects, of laudation he Will ma
that beautiful brides become plain,
handsome bridegrooms ugly, speakers
tiresome, lawyers dull-witted, ministers

THINKS HEAEN WILL BE
DIVINE POLITICAL DOMINION

LOS ANGELES, June 27-[Editor
Herald: I doubt If there is a more in
teresting department in your valuable
paper than the Public Letter Box, in
which your readers are allowed to give
expression to their views. I am par
ticularly interested in the relations of
God and man, as revealed in the Bible,
and take the liberty of correcting some
errors of your correspondents in to-
days issue. "a Workman-C. HI. 8.
says: Jesus overturned the tables OF
the money changers. not by human
strength, but by love-" Now, whatever
may have been the power used in over
turning the tables, and your CORE
spondent's suggestion is surely unique
and ingenious, we read that something
much less pleasant was employed in the
eviction of the owners. John writes
(2:15): "And when he had made a
scourge of small cords, he drove them
all out of the temple, and the sheep, and
the oxen, and poured out the changers
money, and overthrow the tables"
There was a similar occurrence later in
his ministry, recorded in Matt 21:12
Mark II liz, and Luke 1915. but no hint
of love but suggestion of anger at the
changing of the house of prayer into "a
den Of thieves" The Scriptures teach
that God was manifest in the flesh
(I Tim, 3:16); and that Jesus was that

REPUBLICAN PLATFORM

n NE Of the declarations in that ex-
traordinary document, the plat
~ form of the national Republican
convention, declares that the differ
ence between Democracy and Republic
canism is one means adversely while
the other means high prosperity. If
any further proof were needed of
the exaggerated vanity OF the
Republican party, here 1t is. The
savior of the country is still its savior
in spite OF appearances. Nero f1ddled
while Rome was burning, but he never
pretended he was fire extinguisher.
The Republican party, out-Neroing
Nero, evolves a fiddling platform, and
at the same time asks us to believe
it is remedying existing wrongs and
producing prosperity. 1t cannot be de-
MED that Republican managers take
a broad and generous view of affairs.
A few men in a great industry have
made vast fortunes. Therefore this
industry has been OF benefit to thou
sands of Americans. A great manu-
facturer Is worth as much as Croesus,
and in his fortune somehow you are
to believe you share. 1t won't work.
When the average citizen is down to
his last quarter he cannot make it
fifty cents by thinking of one Of the
greater fortunes for which America
is renowned. If he must buy food
and clothing for his wife and children
and is not permitted to earn the money
with which to purchase the necessaries,
what good does it do him to read that
a steel rnagnate is in Paris giving a
fete champetre or something which
makes the eyes of the Frenchmen
pop out of their heads with admira-
ton? Republicanism does not mean
high prosperity for the masses OF the
people.
Would that 1t did, because If the
Republican platform were telling the
truth there would not be an unprece-
dented increase in vagrancy to puzzle
and alarm the authorities, and two
million children would be in school
instead Of in the slaughter houses,
tobacco factories. mills. mines and en-
CINE yards.

manifestation John 14:9); and that
although God is love- Q John 4:s, 16),
yet there is another side to his charac-
ter, as related In. Heb. 1929: For our
God Is a consuming fire." That this
latter phase was also manifested by
Jesus. see his scathing denunciations
of the scribes and pharisees on all &C.
casions, particularly in Matthew, chap
ter 20. which for deserved harshness is
certainly not surpassed by any individ-
ual in any language. Let me quote two
specimens. Verse ~: For we are like
unto whited sepulchres. which indeed
appear beautiful outward. but are with
in full of dead mems bones and of al!
uncleanness." And again, In verse SO:
Eye serpents. We generation of vipers,
how can We escape the damnation of
hell?"
Another correspondent, IN. IT," be-
lieves that churches have strayed from
teachings" With this We have no dis
pute, but it is possible for two parties
to be at variance, and both be wrong.
I'M. T." writes: Jesus said, The king
dom of heaven is within you" /
would like IN IT," to give chapter and
verse for the assertion. IT'S true that
the kingdom of heaven or kingdom of
God is mot place away off in space;
but in denying the error, as grievous a
one is made, in misquoting a part of
the Saviour's statement. Luke records
Q7:20, 21): "And when he was demand
ed of the pharisees when the kingdom
of God should come, he answered them
and said. The kingdom of God .cometh
not with observations neither shall
they say, Lo here! or 10 therei for be-
hold the kingdom of God is within
you" On this passage Dr. Adam
Charge. the great Methodist common
Los Angeles herald., 1908-06-28

tator, says: Perhaps the pharisees
thought that the Messiah was kept Sc
cret, in some private place, known only
to the rulers, and that by and by he
should be proclaimed in similar way
to that in which Joash was by Jehoia-
da, the high priest" The rendering of
the text in the Emphatic Deaglott is,
Goods royal majesty is among you"
Now, while IN. r." correctly denies
that the kingdom of heaven is "in
space" it is not true that 1t is within
the individual. What and where is 1t.
then? The abundant answer of the
Scriptures is that it is divine politi-
cal dominion, to be established on the
earth, for the purpose of upsetting and
superseding all existing forms OF gov
eminent, and bringing the world into
subsection to God" When teachers tell
us of this coming kingdom they preach
the gospel, which is ''the glad tidings of
the kingdom of God" (Luke SID. When
they say that which controverts this
they preach another gospel" and Paul
says of such (Gal. y: LET him be
accursed" But my letter Is already too
long to add more, which would very
much like to do. and may ask the privi-
lege at some future time.
