oldtlme Treatment. Of Man,ae..

Vienna's Fools tower" which is
to be replaced by a more modern
building was remarkable for it's ex.
traordinary collection of strange in
struments and letters used in the
treatment OF the insane of past ages
There was curious machine in which
unruly maniacs were swung until they
were in a state of stupefaction and
therefore quiet. And the same idea
caused the invention of wheel that
revolved like that in a modern squirrel
cage. There was narrow upright
box called an English coffin" from
which the patient could look out, but
could not move. When 1t was built
in 1894, the Fools tower" marked q
great change for the better in the
housing Of the insane. From 200 to $50
patients occupied it's 1879 cells.

VENTURA'S TRIUMPH

UENTURA's celebration will include
Y a Los Angeles day. on which all
good citizens of Los Angeles who
can possibly spare the time should HE
themselves to the enterprising COM
munity which among many magnificent
achievements makes especially justifa-
BILE boast of twelve miles of streets,
and every street paved" Ventura is
in a good roads district, and bears all
the marks of the prudent sagacity and
foresight which characterized every
part of the good roads enterprise.
One of the principal features of
the entertainment will be a lima bean
banquet, in honor OF the favorite and
world-renowned legume of Ventura.
Among all the fruits Of California none
is more justly celebrated than the Ven
tura bean. It IS the most adaptable
edible that any soil produces. It graces
the feasts of the rich and adds solid
comfort to the tables of the poor. 1t
builds muscular men and beautiful
women. As a brain food 1t is unex-
celled; and children whose gray matter
is nourlShed on ventura beans are
growing up who will snatch the literary
laurel from the beanless brow of Indi-
ana, and pluck the toga of statesman
ship from the illeguminate shoulders of
Ohio.
As the seeress Of old remarked,
"Bene coepit, dimidium fecit." "He
who banks on the Bean will win fame
and fortune" This Sibylline utterance
is truer today than ever it was, because
the effete beans Of old Rome were not

the bountiful beans of Ventura-the
hope and joy of the nation, to which
they will ever assure a triumphantly
grand reputation.
Hurrah for Ventura, her good beans
and her good roads!

NICARAGUA

MOT SINCE the Virginius affair has
" American honor been so nettled
~ as 1t is by the news from Mica
ragua. The little republic is in tick
lish position, because blood is thicker
than water and while men Of our race
and nation may have been erratic,
foolish or even criminal in Nicaragua,
our sense of justice is revolted by what
appears to be the tyrannic finality of
the sentence pronounced upon two un-
happy American Adventures.
They appear to have received neither
hearing nor trial, and to condemn them
without opportunity for defense is d
proceeding so utterly opposed to the
ideals of international square-dealing
cultivated under the American and the
British flags, that we have no doubt
a great portion of the American nation
will become as angry as President Taft
is reported to be.
Evidently Nicaragua is tired of ma
tional independence.

LITERATURE'S LOSS

NY the death of Richard Watson
Is Glider American literature has
~ suffered a severe loss, and the
Brahmin school is left almost without
an exponent. Mr.. Glider represented
literature of the pristine or uncom-
mercialized type, and yet one Of fate's
ironies made him a pioneer of the
periodical school of literary output
which depends for its success and its
payroll on the heavy and lucrative ad-
vertising attracted by the circulation
it commands.
The publishing world has suffered
another loss by the death of William
NJ. Laffan of the New York Sun. The
life of Laffan is as extraordinary as
any of which there is record. Born
in Dublin, Ireland, graduated in news
naper work in San Francisco, he end
ed his career as the successor OF
Charles A. Dana, one of the greatest
of New York publishers and editors!

ALEXANDER TOWN

A CCORDING to the machine organ
n the Republican managers are bus
"A lily proceeding with their campaign
to elect George A. Smith mayor of Los
Angeles on December Z, and mo Uncle
Aleck town" is the slogan of every
worker in the party from now until
the ballots are counted.
Very well. We will take the enemy
at his word.
WHAT IS AN UNCLE ALECK
TOWN, that he should Shrek in agony
at thought of It?
It is a clean city morally; one in
which vice has neither official recog-
milton nor protection. The morning
machine organ of course prefers a
dirty city morally, one in which vice
has official recognition and protection.
That is an Interpretation Of its phrase,
mo Uncle Aleck town."
It is a clean city politically, one from
which the pulls, deals, dickers, plots,
sub plots, petty conspiracies and "put
up jobs" on the people and frame
ups" are eliminated; and patriotism
and civic righteousness are substituted.
What says Brand Whtlock, mayor
of Toledo?
"The old idea Of party loyalty is soon
ideal of CIVIC LOYALTY. No more
is the success of the party to be the
one thing aimed at; NOW 1T IS TO
BE THE SUCCESS, THE TRIUMPH
OF THE CITY.
Not much longer will men run for
local office on platforms dealing with
national issues, real or artificial; they
will run on platforms dealing with
city issues, or they will run on no plat
forms at all, for platforms are dead
things, after all, and receive only now
and then a temporary galvanization
from some great personality"
The morning machine organ openly
and avowedly prefers the success of
the party to the triumph Of the city.
When it reviews the result of an ad-
ministration unequaled in this metrop-
oils for efficiency and results it sneers
sourly, "An Uncle Aleck town."
Huwah for Greater, Cleaner, Better
Nohler, Purer LOS ANGELES, AN
UNCLE ALECK TOWN.
Attempted scurrility of phrase will
not win the election for our fatuous
friend. All the phrase mongers who
ever mixed bitter words will not man
age to dose the public of Los Angeles;
nay verify, nor to bulldoze it.
Three cheers for our Uncle Aleck
town.
Vote to keep it so, in order that con
tinued prosperity may attend the prog
ress Of Los Angeles to the premiership
of the Pacific coast.

CITES SOME PRoPHEsIEs
THAT HAVE NOT COME TRUE

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 1S.-[Editor
Herald: "T. H." justifies his belief in
the Bible by citing the fulillment fits
prophecies. I would refer him to Mat
thew 24:29-34:
Immediately after the liberation of
those days days destruction of Jerusa-
lem) shall the sun be darkened, and
the moon shall not give her light, and
the stars shall fall from heaven, and
the power of the heavens shall be
shaken.
And then shall appear the sign of
the Son of man IN heaven: and then
shall all the toilers of the earth mourn,
end they shall see the Son of man
coming in the clouds Of heaven with
power and great glory.
"And he shall send his angels with
great sound of a trumpet and they
shall gather together his elect from the
four winds, from one end of heaven to
the other.
''Now learn a parable of the fig tree:
When his branch is yet tender and put
teth forth leaves, ye know that summer
is nigh:
$50 likewise ye, when We shall see all
these things, know that it is near, even
at the doors.
"Verily 1 say unto you, This genera
tion shall not pass till all these things
be fulfilled
1t seems to me that is a pretty def
mite prophecy which somehow failed to
"proph."
However, in the words of Old Gorgon
Graham. simply mention this in pass
ing, and would not have anyone think
I doubt ''T, HIS" ability to explain it
all satisfactorily 1 am sure he can
do so. The ingenuity of Bible students
in the explanation of inexplicable con-
tradictions is simply "globber-gasting."

one must exercise the freedom of will
which he denies and disagree with
some of his conclusions. To q degree,
the nature of his own reasoning con-
flutes him. If improved environment
in one generation means improved
heredity in the next, as he asserts, the
natural thing to do is to seek the inn
provement- of our present environment.
We can do this only by clear Idea
of what is wrong with that environ
ment. To find out we must stu,'y the
world and the ideas of those who have
observed it in all ages, and, at length,
come to our own opinion as to what is
amiss. We must will to observe and
study, and we must will to accept that
which our reason tells us is truth.
"F. Il, S." obviously has willed to
break very violently with many opin-
ions Of his ancestors and many condi-
tions of his environment. This Is gem
uine volition, so genuine and uncon-
scious that he does not realize 1t. With
out any intent "to wreak hideous cruel
ty on the helpless Individual" l eXer-
else my right of will and differ with
f. T, S. 1 believe that both the I'M
proved heredlty and the improved en-
Vironment of the next generation de-
pend on the resolute will of individuals
working individually and In voluntary
concert to conquer the ignorances and
the cruelties of individual and social
life today.
1t is a vivid and astounding proof
of the freedom of the human will that
SO many brave men and women of all
shades of opinion are willingly facing
suffering and misunderstanding to
achieve that end. If it were not in
PRODUCING another question into the
discussion. l would say that in this

modern mind we may see, If we will,

Cling men. ATHANASlAN'

are in moderate circumstances, trying
to make ends meet, and finding it hard
work. Yet working on and saying
nothing to any one about it. There are
many such, who would be willing to
do anything to be able to get little
home of their own, but are kept down
by high rents. l would let such have
