Movements in both sheep and cattle
have been heavy of late.
Good demand and short grass ar. ft~
reasons for the active business in tue
stock industry.
Joe Coombs, the Grant county stuck
man, is in the city today looking af.,r
the shipment of 800 head of s-year-aH
beef cattle. The sale vas made ia dt,

REPUBLICAN SILENCE

S A MEANS of allowing to the
n greater benefciaries of the gov
ernmental conditions which per-
United States an opportunity of show
ing practical recognition of their in
debtedness to the country which gives
them opportunity, the Democratic plat
form proposes that in the United States,
as in Switzerland, France, Germany
and Great Britain. incomes shall be
taxed. The Republican platform says
nothing on this subject.
The Democratic platform demands
the election of United States senators
by a direct vote in order that it may
be made difficult If not impossible for
millionaires to control the upper house.
The Republican platform is silent on
the subject of direct election of sena-
tors. The Democratic platform says
the duty must be removed from trust
controlled articles with arbitrary prices
fixed upon the customer without regard
to laws of supply and demand, compe-
tition having been throttled. The Re-
publican platform ignores this obvious
method of correcting the trust evil,
which is a method that cannot be called
experimental, as it was used with
great success by a neighbor republic.
The Republican party Is silent on the
subject of guaranty of bank deposits.
The Democratic party in its platform
demands that a reasonable tax be paid
by banks to create guarantee fund to
protect depositors, thus preventing
panics and runs on banks, and bring
ing into circulation boarded wealth.
The scandalous and dangerous cor
ruption of the electorate by the use
of enormous campaign funds points to
the decay Of free government. The
Democratic platform says the people
of the United States should know,
by publicity BEFORE election, the
sources of all big campaign contribu-
tions. The Republican platform has
nothing to. say on the subject.
The Democratic platform condemns
billion dollar sessions of congress and
a vast array of office holders debating
presidential nominations. The Republi-
can party platform is silent on this
point.
NECESSARILY SILENT!

HOLLENBECK HOME

I OS ANGELES is fortunate in pos
IL sessing among its citizens some of
- the most generous hearted peo-
pie In the world; and few cities in the
United States can show such an ex-
ample Of well directed benevolence
and genuine philanthropy as the Hol-
lenbeck Home for the Aged, newly
completed additions to which were
dedicated Sunday.
Rev. William S. Young, the superin-
tendent, holds position OF unusual
responsibility, for it is a difficult task
to be the directing genius" of an in
stitution peopled by old folks each
with developed individuality, each
with formed character, and all Jealous
of recognition of the personal indepen-
dence to which they are entitled; the
fear of surrender of which deters
many from entering home, even when
financial arrangements are such that
their sense of independence Is saved.
But the Hollenbeck is mot that kind
of a home" In 1t Is gathered a big,
happy family. the members of which
are going ION their way rejoicing" T"
even although they may know they are
nearing the last stage of the journey.
Happy are the people of wealth who
have the disposition as well as the
power to make other people happy.
And happy are those like DR.. Young
to whom 1t has been given to admin
lister benevolence in such a way that
the full measure of happiness is OBJ
tained. and that it "blesseth him that
gives and him that takes"

Great Results Are Expected
from California Cotton Crop

produce the higher priced varieties of
cotton-of which there appears little
or no doubt--there ought to be much
money in those crops. Should such be
the result, and should the Imperial cot
ton output be a large one, this city
would be a substantial gamer. Much
of the crop with the completion of the
direct railway would be shipped
through this port to Asia, says the San
Diego Union. There would be a repe-
tition of the scenes on the Oriental
wharf some years ago. when 1t was
piled high with bales of southern cot
ton awaiting shipment to Yokohama.
In word, a great cotton growing in
dustry In the Imperial country would
mean a substantial addition to the
commerce of this port. 1t is even pos
sible that one or more factories to
work up the raw material would be es-
tablished here. The question of labor
would be the only serious problem to be
solved in connection with such fac
tories, once an ample supply of cot
ton were assured. With that question
settled, as seems probable 1t would be.
Imperial cotton may easily mean an
important manufacturing industry in
this city. In any event, people here
will observe with close attention the
progress of this enterprise in the val

WONDERFUL STORY

AT OF in many day has a news
story of such compelling human
a interest been published in any
newspaper anywhere as that printed
in yesterdays Herald detailing the re-
markable adventures of little Marchie
Gress. kidnapped twelve times; trailed
across a dozen states and Canada; safe
at last with her father, after figuring
in one of the most thrilling abduction
escapades ever resorted to by parent
to regain possession of a child"
1t is not any wonder that poor little
tired NTarchie said: Don't let them
take me away, Mamma Dare. Oh,
Mamma Dare, does Jesus truly love
little girls? Why don't he make them
let me rest? If they break my
heart, Mamma Dare, I'll die; then you
can bury me out there under the rose
bush with my white yabbet. Then
Aileen will put some flowers on top and
say, Here's poor little Marchie; she's
SO sleepy they can't bother her any
more, Mamma Dare"
Many sentimental stories have been
built to order in recent years. Many
examples and varieties of child life
have been invented-and described by
the inventors. But only once in long,
long time does 1t fall to the lot Of
writer's to tell "really-truly'' story of
child life, like that which The Herald
gave its readers. who knew it was a
good STORY" from a newspaper point
of view, and also knew the very fact,
The Herald published it proved 1t was
"all true, every word Of It." Truth is
stranger, more appealing, more moving,
than fiction, because TRUTH is life as
it is lived, and fiction is only life as 1t
is imagined.
The Herald recognized the news value
of this story, and although 1t was
within reach of other newspapers, The
Herald was the only paper which OBJ
tained and printed the facts in one of
the most remarkable cases of modern
times. This was an instance of legiti-
mate newspaper enterprise, of which
The Herald may be justly proud.

BRYAN POLICIES

n n r. BRYAN points out that the
V president and Mr.. Taft have in
AA- dorsed his plans for income tax.
railroad regulation, tariff reform, in
dependence for Filipinos. Even his
methods Of campaigning are being i'm
itated. Republicans said Mr.. Bryan
was acting like a demagogue because
votes. Now that is the fit and proper
way Of campaigning-becau 1t is Mr..
Taft's methodl
Since Bryanism--which Is to say
Americanism-is so tempting to Repub-
licans that they use 1t whenever they
can, 1t does not seem to be possible to
get away from the conclusion that q
Bryan program for the United States
would be safer in the hands of Mr.. Bry=
an than of an imitator. While imita-
tion may be the sincerest f1attery, there
is no reason why the country should
put up with an imitation when it may
have the genuine article"
Mr.. Bryan is one of the most amia-
BILE men in the world. He bears no
grudges, and is not the kind OF man
who ever wants to get square with"
anybody. Yet he must realize the ac-
curacy of the saying, "Time brings
forth it's revenges." He has only had
to live for few years in order to have
his policies vindicated by events-and
adopted by his opponents.

Wafer LalVS of California
Are Absolutely B1rb1rOuS

possibility appears the legislature does
not dare act lest it do more harm than
good. BY 1udge-made law--about the
only new irrigation law which can get
past the courts--we are gradually work
Ing out system OF irrigation law
under which we shall be able to live
and prosper. but there is the work of
a generation still before the supreme
court.
There is one thing which might be
done, and that is to create strong
state administrative system. which, at
the expense of the state. shall enforce
such law as we have and act as buffer
between the water monopolists and the
water users. The late Water and
Forest society was organized and MAIN
tained for some years at large expense
for the purpose of securing such law.
It was vigorously opposed, however. by
monopolistic influences and was finally
defeated by the influence of
cooperative or alleged cooperative So
cieties of farmers In Southern Califor-
MIA, who proved to be the most selfish
and bitter monopolists In the state.
They were not likely to be interfered
with, but they preferred that the peo-
pie Of all the rest of the state should
be plunged into costly litigation and
kept there indefinitely rather than take
any chance whatever OF being regu-
lated in any way.
We are sorry for our correspondent
and others in his situation. If the pub
lie welfare is being unlawfuliy sacri-
feed to the interests of those in con-
troll of our streams, the state itself
ought to step in and protect the water
users by administrative effort or, when
necessary, prosecuting suits at law.
This the legislature has refused to pro-
vide for and we do not know Of any
effort now being made by anybody to
continue the agitation. Therefore, our
unfortunate correspondent, IL he thinks
himself aggrieved. has no remedy that
we can see but to hire a lawyer and
prosecute his case himself.

LABOR DAY

SPLENDID POEM, which may
Y have been quoted by some Labor
- day orator, says life Is not an
empty dream, and that men must learn
to labor and to wait. In the literal sense
of the expression that is what many
citizens of the United States have been
doing for many years. They have been
learning to labor, and have been labor
ing and waiting, waiting patiently for
the fulfllment of promises made by the
Republican party when it cajoled them
into voting 1t into power.
The demands of labor as recognized
in the Democratic national platform
are not unreasonable. especially when
we consider that America Is, after all,
nothing more nor less than a socially
organized industrialism, and that the
success of its industries is the source Of
it's national power.
Labor's demands may be summed up
briefly. All 1t wants is a square deal, a
fair and reasonable share in the prod
uct 1t creates; life, liberty and the
pursuit Of happiness; government of
the people, by the people, for the peo-
pie; the greatest good for the greatest
number, and education for all.
The demands of labor are astonish-
ingly like Americanism, the govern
mental and social system which this
country became independent in order to
illustrate and keep In force Chat was
its principal excuse for revolution); and
indeed the demands of labor ARE de-
mands for Americanism.
If the American program had been
carried out there would not be any need
of a labor movement. The very fact
that a labor movement exists. that a
labor party exists, and that various or
ganizations exist which have for their
aims the improvement of the conditions
of the masses of workers, shows that
the American program has not been
carried out.
A return to Americanism will be i'm
possible as long as the Republican
party Is In power, because the Republi-
can party cannot stultify itself and in
jure the interests to which it owed its
AAAAANANA PAOSEOAAby ny d0OPlAAAS AClOA
measures and governing for the people.
Labor day recalled vividly that Repub-
icans secured power by direct appeal
to labor.
''Vote for our candidate, workingman,
wage Garner" said the Republican
leaders, land SO long as the Republican
party is In power the interests of the
workingmen will be its chief concern.
His dinner pail will always be full"
Full dinner pail" was a happy phrase.
1t was invented by a newspaper man,
indorsed with great enthusiasm by
Mark Hanna and the Republican lead
ers, and it is still so enticing the Re-
publican leaders would use 1t now IL
they dared. But the wage earners who
observed Labor day have made up their
minds that the bottom is out of the
argument-as well as out
Of the Republican dinner pail. None of
the voters who celebrated Labor day
will vote for Taft. Many of them will
vote for Bryan.

Racial Accord and Agreement
as to -ASidfic Exclusion

NANY of the English newspapers
lVE see in the reception Of the visit
AA- of the Americat feet In Aus
tralia a significant demonstration OF
sympathy with the policy of Asiatic
exclusion. It will not be denied that
Australia, the United States and Can
ada are in general agreement as TO this
policy. 1t is sentiment no longer
peculiar to the Pacific coast, but Is
regarded with respect and serious con-
sideration in all parts of the country,
says the San Francisco Call. The Lon
don Graphic, under the heading OF
"The Big Stick Afioat." has these COM
ments:
"It is not surprising that the Amer
lean sailors find a warm welcome In
a British port, but the present well
come is vitalized by special circum-
stances, notably by the fine perfor-
nance of Sperry's fleet in the around
the-world voyage and by certain COM
munity interests and aspirations in
Pacific politics. The American fleet
