GREATER LOS ANGELES

"ARBOR excursions like that of
II members of the City club will
H help the cause OF consolidation.
The club members are now as enthusi-
astically appreciative of harbor actual
tiles and possibilities as all citizens
should be. Everybody should visit San
Pedro harbor, then The Herald would
not need to devote so much space to
urging people to take an active interest
in harbor work, for the entire communi-
ty would become enthused.
The resolutions of the City club on
the subject of Captain Fries represent
accurately the sentiment of the best
informed people of this metropolis as
to the Importance of the services to the
community of this gallant and learned
officer
The Herald takes the liberty of repro
ducing the City club resolutions with
Los Angeles" and community" sub
stituted for the word CLUB"
BE it resolved, by the people Of
Greater Los Angeles, that this COM
munity would consider it most unfor-
tunate for the city of Los Angeles if
Capt. Amos A. Fries should be taken
from us, and that Los Angeles needs
Captain Fries much more than he is
needed anywhere else at the present
time, and we hereby request our repre-
sentatives in congress to do all in their
power to secure the revocation Of the
order transferring Captain Fries from
Los Angeles, and respectfully urge the
proper authorities in the war depart
ment to acquiesce in the general de-
mand of the citizens and civic organiza-
lions that Captain Fries be permitted
to remain in Los Angeles at this cru
cial period in the development of what
is destined to be one of the great cities
of the world"
We think the resolution was some-
what modest in using the expression
great cities" Greater Los Angeles
"a greater city than Los Angeles or
any other constituent part of the con-
solidated metropolis-will be one Of the
GREATEST cities in the world, and the
GREATEST in the west.

ALPHABET REFORM

n OOsEvELT spelling has been
X abandoned. 1t will no longer
Ia make documents of state prizes
for collectors of the quaint and curious.
AS The Herald has said repeatedly, it
is not spelling reform that is needed
by the language. but alphabetical re-
form. The alphabet which is used by
the polyglot languages sometimes called
English and sometimes American is the
alphabet of the Latin tongue. 1t is
impossible to spell its sounds phonet-
ically with the Latin alphabet, and the
SILENT LETTERS OF OUR ANTI
QUATED ALPHABET COST THE
RACE AT LEAST 500, 900, 900 A YEAR!
The Latin letters applied to the mod
ern American tongue are responsible
for much loss of time, much poverty
and, beyond reasonable doubt, much
ill-health. For instance, every time we
use the letter T plus the letter H to
represent the simple sound for which
the sensible Greeks had the single let
ter Theta we tax our brains unneces-
sarily, strike two keys on the type
writer or typesetter where one should
do, and we impose an extra burden on
mind and eye when, in the course of
our reading, we are called on to de-
cipher the fact that "T" and III" are
NOT T and H, but THetal

HONESTY


TN the resolutions adopted by the
Democratic league of Southern
\ California approving the selection
of Joseph w. Folk as candidate for
president of the United States, atten-
ton was called to the fact that "spe-
cial privileges, conferred ostensibly by
law, in the nature of private conces-
sions to the so-called public utility cor
porations; protective tariff ON the
necessities OF life, granted to favored
producers and manufacturers, Illegal
combinations, trusts. monopolies and
the like, have resulted in state of
corruption in the nations political af-
fairs which the Republican party. dur
ing the last twelve years of its con-
troll of the nations affairs, has been
unable or unwilling to curb"
Think of the remarkable and unpre-
cedented state of affairs revealed in
the words quoted. During twelve long
years the citizens of the United States
have been bitterly conscious of grave
Entertainments on the nations CHAR
ACTER, but, owing to the skillful and
complex fashion In which this attack
on integrity has been conducted, never
In the nations history has it been so
difficult for the believers in the first
principles of Americanism to assert
these principles and bring about a res
toration of true national prosperity
('the greatest good of the greatest
number').
What is most needed in the national
life Is honesty, and before we can have
honesty we must have the spirit OF
fair dealing, which is a form of
HONOR.
AS Saint Patrick of old drove the
snakes out of Ireland, so must the
snakes of graft corruption and dis
honor be driven out of the United
States and an honest and popular man
OF patriotism and ability must take
the lead in expelling them. The fight
for honesty, for square dealing, for a
restoration of the first principles of
Americanism, is the fight which it is
the duty of the Democratic party to
take up, and to win, and it cannot win
this fight unless provided with facili-
ties for winning it, and facilities it can
not have without political power, and
political power 1t cannot have without
success at the national election, and
success it cannot have without can
didate who will represent American
ism. all that is best and truest in
American life, and both by his record
and his principles will appeal to the
American voters and obtain their sup
port; and such a man is JOSEPH w.

OFFICIAL HONOR

* S secretary of state Robert Ba-
~ con was in every way efficient"
says Washington letter, "but
he was not popular with the newspaper
representatives, and therefore received
comparatively little space in the public
press. This is attributed to his lack
of knowledge of customs at the capital.
Soon after he took office he was asked
question concerning some public bust
ness, and returned an answer which
was afterward found to be untrue. It
is the custom in Washington for Off
Gals to tell the truth or remain silent,
and because of this inadvertence Mr..
Bacon suffered"
The habit of truth telling ought to be
a custom observed by all classes in the
United States. Mr.. Bacon, it should
be remembered, was graduated to the
United States cabinet from the firm of
]. Pierpont Morgan & Co. Any person
who has been long enough in the news
paper profession to have cut his wis
dom teeth knows the art of diplomacy
rather than of frankness is practiced
ny the IlbIuDtIS Ol the nTIil OF y. =.
Morgan & Co. in their dealings with
the public through the medium of the
newspapers. The Morgan firm has fol-
lowed a custom established by its
founder and by him adopted in accord
ance with the famous Vanderbilt prec-
edent of considering the public as a
composite mass of highly inferior per-
sons, good only for the purposes of
refined peonage and high class pillage.
Men educated in the Morgan school are
utterly unable to think of the public
in the manner in which most of us
think of it.
We may flatter ourselves that men of
this type do not secretly despise the
American people, but any of us VINO
may have caught such "personages" off
guard and in unconventional moments
know full well in their hearts they DO
despise the people, and that is why
they treat with scant courtesy news
paper men, the representatives of the
people, and why, when cornered by q
direct question affecting a matter of
public Importance and interest, they
lie to them, regardless alike of the
possible effect of the publication of
the falsehood on the reputation Of the

CLEAN THE CITY

TN HIS suggestion the city should
be thoroughly cleaned for the
l. Elks' visit Mayor Alexander Is
warmly supported by public sentiment.
The only possible improvement that
can be indicated is that the city should
be cleaned again after the Elks' visit,
and should be kept religiously clean.
When Los Angeles is spick and span
it is easily the finest city in the United
States. To put it colloquially "She
can't be beat for looks" but even as
the best looking woman will appear at
disadvantage If there are smudges
on her face, so the best looking city
appears at a disadvantage when the
sidewalks are gritty and grimy and
the streets are Uttered with paper,
etc. A serious effort should be made
to put an end to the practice of throw
ing fruit skins and fruit refuse of any
kind on the streets. OF course, this
is the capital of the greatest fruit
country in the world, but that is no
reason why the stranger within our
gates should be asked to run the risk
of sliding and falling on a treacherous
bit of peel. Children should be in
structed not to throw fruit litter Of
any kind on the sidewalks. Orange
and lemon peel, banana and grape
skins may be dangerous man-traps.
If the city is to be cleaned, the
cleaning thereof must be the personal
affair Of every citizen, young or old.
make Greater Los Angeles the cleanest
as well as the best and the most beau
tiful city in the world. Let us all
show our appreciation of Mayor Alex
anders common sense and good ad-
vice by helping to clean the streets
and to keep them clean.
Los Angeles herald., 1909-06-29
HUMAN NATURE

TN HAT story of the fight at Pike s
Peak should not have happened in
Il real life. 1t should have been told
by Robert Louis Stevenson or Edgar
Allan Poe. We wish it had not hap
pened. Usually all of us are given to
imagining many of the unpleasantnesses
that sometimes make life miserable and
furnish grist for the news mill and
for the courts, would never have taken
place if 1t had not been for the dread
full congestion of society.
We apologize for each other and for
all the world by saying we are piled
on top Of each other and damned up
against each other, and must struggle
or be crushed. But what are we to
say when the worst passions of HUI
man nature break out in a limited so
ciety," composed of three human be-
ings, on a lonely mountain peak?
Amid the solitudes and silences and
beneath the spacious skies they snarl,
they quarrel and they fight. Even to
tai darkness and the awesomeness OF
the middle of the night on the great
mountain failed to have a restraining
effect on angry passions aroused by a
dispute over MONEY, a quarrel over
PRICES. So Mammon rules the noun
tain and Mammon rules the glen;
Mammons rule is everywhere among
the sons Of men. All of which re-
minds US Cain murdered Abel when
there was no social congestion. When
there were only four people on the
face Of the earth, one killed another.
The Pixies Peak story helps US TO
realize the literal truth of the story
Of Cain and Abel.

AMERICAN FOURTH

II EFT US have a sane as well as glo-
rious Fourth in Los Angeles. The
"A celebration of Independence day
should be marked by patriotism, en-
thusiasm and Americanism, and there
are many ways of giving expression to
them besides shooting Chinese explo-
sives We believe the citizens of Los
Angeles will realize the Importance OF
saving the fire department work, the
insurance companies worry, hospital
surgeons and attendants extra toll and
families sorrow and bereavement by
observing the great day periodically.
A fireworks Fourth" when we think
of it analytically is frightfully and
recklessly selfish and un-American. Let
us have an American Fourth.

SCHOOLS

CLOSING exercises in Los Angeles
l elementary schools were conducted
~ in a common sense manner, and,
in accordance with a suggestion made
in Los Angeles Herald, dressing up
was not encouraged, and the children
were grouped in such a way that If any
pupils were extra splendidly arrayed
they were not conspicuous. The public
schools of Los Angeles are the best in
the world, and principals and teachers
may always be trusted to do whats
just right and just American"
The Herald wishes success to all
graduates and continued success to
teachers. To borrow with a slight
change the language of Tiny Tim,
God bless them every one"

co-operation

But with all their complacency, the

Unlike the small and friendly socle-
