DUALITY OF THEIR LIVES
UNDERSTOOD BY FEW MEN

BAKERSFIELD, April 21.-[Editor
Herald: So deeply rooted in the mind
of man is the idea that his nature is
twofold that his every thought is tine
tured with it, and yet if we look for
the origin of such a supposition we find
it among heather philosophers, and
have no authority for any such belief
in the scriptures until after the advent
of Christ. He taught men that they
must be born of the spirit, which means
that a new element must enter into
their being before they could come into
a new nature.
Redemption furnished the new ele-
ment, and none possessed it until after
Pentecost, when it was given by the
Father to seal the work of the Son,
who said, $50 many as received him to
them gave he power to become the
sons of God" We are all redeemed,
bought with a price, but all are not in
accord with the Savior and have not
received the earnest of the Spirit. They
are still in the flesh, and are without
one iota of authority for believing
themselves possessed of a spiritual ma
ture. One writer thinks common sense
is sufficient, but the only sense COM
mon to the race is a sense of our own
importance, which would be rather a
blind guide. Another alludes to a sci
ence of correspondence. This would
necessitate being born of the spirit in
order to know how to compare spiritual
and natural things; and who will make
this claim? Spiritualists are the only
people who have ever attempted to
demonstrate the theories of Emanuel
Swedenborg, for the more conservative
believers are quite content to take him
at his word, without proof other than
that furnished by their own common
sense. C. H.

GREATER LOS ANGELES

~ AN FRANCISCO has a frontage of
eleven miles available for wharf
~ age. At San Pedro within the mu-
nicipal boundaries there is an avail
able wharfage of over twelve miles.
When consolidation has been effected
Greater Los Angeles will provide the
facilities which will make 1t the lead
ing maritime city of the west. There
is not any room for doubt as to the
position Greater Los Angeles will oc-
cupy among the cities of the United
States. Commercial and manufactur-
ing opportunities will be taken advan-
tage of. There will be abundance of
capital and the progress and pros
perity of Greater Los Angeles will be
uninterrupted. The completion of the
Panama canal will give new trade ad-
vantages to the western coast, and the
position of Los Angeles with regard to
the commerce of the world will be ex-
cellent. The development of Southern
California will be even more rapid In
the years to come than it has been in
the years that have passed. Popula-
ZION is growing dpdC6, anu Tue IOtIlc
market is being enlarged. Many i'm
ports delivered at San Pedro will not
have to be hauled to midland or east
ern cities for consumption. Right here,
on the shores of the great Pacific, there
is being established one of the worlds
greatest and richest marts of COM
merce. And here is growing apace a
gigantic industrialism.
Manufactured products will take ad-
vantage of the harbor of San Pedro
and of the Panama canal route and will
be shipped and distributed prof1tably
after paying reasonable freight rates.
Indeed, many of our industries, as
they grow, may deem it wise to es-
tablish their own steamship lines; or
several industries together may own
ships which will take their goods to
the best market. But, before all this
shall come to pass, before Los Angeles
fulfllls its destiny and is the maritime
and mercantile metropolis of the west,
consolidation must be effected, in or
der that harbor improvements may be
made on scale BETTING the proba-
BILE demands of domestic manufactur-
ing interests and worldwide COM
merce.

ADVOCATES NON-PARTISAN
BOARD TO REVISE TARIFF

LOS ANGELES, April 21.-[Editor
Herald: Does any man that has kept
track of this tariff proposition for the
last twenty or thirty years think for. a
moment that the men who have the
making of that schedule are going to
do what is right or equable-or, in a
broad sense, just-to all the people,
east, west, north and south? No doubt
there are radical partisans who will
say that it is all right, no matter what
they perpetrate. But the great mass
of people will have a suspicion that,
like all partisan tariff bills, the pendu-
lum of just gravitation was swung too
far to one side when it was revised or
tinkered up to suit some future party
necessity.
Now as a suggestion, knowing that
no political party can ever hope to
make a tariff schedule that would be
satisfactory to all, why not create a
commission of say three non-partisan
members, to go to work and create a
tariff measure that won't have the
faint of party bias and prejudice?
[ would make the number three rath-
err than five; for if there be more than
three there is liable to be a suspicion
of a leaning toward the requests of
Wall street. Take some of the broad
minded professors of our universities,
that are we'll grounded in the philo-
sophical economics of our own nation,
and foreign nations also. And if it is
not possible to find three non-partisans
that will come up to the requirements
of the work, then select one from each
political party who is not a radical
partisan, and who is broad-minded
enough to have just appreciation of
right and wrong between the unscru-
pulous rich and the general or common
people. IF required for the purpose Of
raising more revenue, why not add to
tariff measure a graded income tax?

has been and never will, because he
cannot; nor can anyone else.
You can expose a spurious dollar. but
that does not expose the coin of the
realm.
Garrison-and others like him-is eX-
posing takers and tricksters, showing
how they fake and do their tricks; but
they are not Spiritualists, although they
do steal the livery of heaven in which
to serve the devil of their greed.
Truth cannot be exposed; 1t can be
demonstrated and made manifest.
There is not a claim of Spiritualism
but can be, under proper conditions,
scientifically proven.
Spiritualism is science, is philosophy,
is religion.
1t is the only religion on earth which
is in perfect harmony with all the facts
of science.
1t is the only religion on earth whose
philosophy is in perfect accord with all
the facts of revealed nature.
1t is the only religion on earth which
demonstrates it's claims and gives
knowledge on which to base it's faith.
A true Spiritualist is one who tries
to live the highest, best life to him pos
sible, according to the precepts of the
Golden Rule, thinking no wrong, doing
no wrong, ever striving by precept and
example to exemplify the teachings of
the harmonial philosophy.

OVERWORK

M UGH sympathy and not a little
M CONSERVATION will be caused by
u1 the announcement of the illness
of Rev. DIR. ElWood Worcester, the
founder of the Emmanuel movement.
His physicians say he must quit work
for at least six months, and many peo-
pie who have been interested by
Emmanuelsm are asking; well, II the
leader breaks down, what of the peo-
pie who have adopted his precepts ana
taken his advice?"
The illness of DR.. Worcester only
shows that a man may be so ardently
devoted to a good cause he may sac
rifice himself in the endeavor to help
others. This has happened so often
in the history of the world that we
are accustomed to speak of martyrs"
to this movement or that, this cause
or the other. DR.. Worcester may be
regarded as a martyr to the Emmanuel
movement, which has taken all Of his
workaday physical energy and mas
drawn on that reserve which should
be kept unimpaired.
Nothing short of a miracle can save
from the consequences of his action
any one who draws too heavily on his
reserve. He puts himself presently in
a position similar to that of an un-
fortunate man who lives on stimulants.
Overtaxation of the reserve forces pro-
duces effects similar to those from
which persons who overindulge in alco-
holic stimulants suffer. In both in
stances nature protests against inter-
ference with her laws which govern
the human body. and overexertion is
as serious a crime as overstimulation.
1t is amazing to realize that the foun-
der of a great healing and helping
movement should have violated the
laws of which he was the successful
champion. But human nature never
changes. 1t is the same in all ages,
subject only to variations produced by
environment. 1t was not without good
and sufficient reason the old Greeks,
long before the dawn of Christian
civilization, invented and applied the
opposite proyerbial saying, Doctor,
heal myself"

Der that wages were increased thereby
The discovery which reduced the cost
of producing steel was one of the most
important of our age, but the profits
of the merchant were not increased
thereby. The discovery of oil and
natural gas in new fields greatly added
to our stock of wealth, but the doctor
or others who contributed personal
service did not share therein.
1t seems that all gains from these
and other discoveries have gone to but
one class of people; that the increase
in value has attached to but one class
of property land, and has benefited
land owners alone.
If 1t is true that all efforts to tighten
the burdens of labor are counteracted
by proportionate increase in land
values, and these values\ can be ex-
changed in the open market for labor
products or labor, and thereby becomes
a debt on labor, is not this the reason
why wages cannot rise above the low
level of subsistence?
There must be something radically
wrong with system that necessarily
results in the concentration of wealth
to a small class, and that wrong is
nothing more or less than the traffic In

GAMBLING

~ OKER has been elevated to the
~ plane of a speculative business
4 by the action of two millionaire
Nevada mine owners, who played a
game for big stakes while two book
keepers sat by their sides keeping close
record. The chief merit of this type
Of gambling game is its obviousness.
1t does not pretend to be anything
but a gambling game. There are other
varieties of gambling in which book
keepers are employed, but they are
not referred to as gambling. They wear
businesslike titles, and any one who
suggested that when analysed they
were nothing more nor less than plain
CANDLES would be called by a short

such difference be 'twixt tweedledum
