THE DISGRUNTLED

A SPEAKER at machine rally said
n the Good Government league is
"A composed of Democrats and dis
gruntled Republicans. In the opinion
of this speaker and of many other
equally shallow, connection with any
plan or project for the betterment Of
Los Angeles is a sign of disgruntle-
ment. Now, disgruntlement is a state
of discomfort. If to be opposed to all
alliances between loathsome vice and
officeholdlng is to be disgruntled, IL to
be opposed to combinations and con-
spiracies to loot the city treasury is to
be disgruntled, If to be in favor of
Americanism is to be disgruntled, if to
advocate a square deal for all citizens
is to be disgruntled, if to favor a siren
uous policy of repression of all in
huences which make for the moral or
physical degradation of a city is to
be disgruntled then the Republicans
who have united their efforts with those
of other responsible citizens in order to
clean up Los Angeles and to keep it
clean must plead guilty to being dis
gruntled.
But there is nothing to be disgruntled
at in the results of the conscientious
endeavors OF the disgruntled to improve
conditions in Los Angeles. When the
Los Angeles of today is contrasted with
the Los Angeles of the days preceding
the Alexander administration there is

MISREPRESENTATION

III ALL talk is all very we'll in its
way, but sometimes. like vaulting
Il ambition, IL o'erleaps Itself. The
following frenzied anti-reform outburst,
extracted from the usually dull col
umns of the Morning Reactionary, is
remarkable because 1t is such an out
rageous misstatement that it will con-
vince even the machinists that mis-
representation, the most dishonorable
of dishonorable tactics, is part of the
game. and to fair-minded American
as willful, deliberate misrepresenta-
tion.
The Morning Longbow says: I'VE are
BURDENED here in Los Angeles with
political organization as DANGER
GUS as any that has afflicted New
York under Tammany Hall OR SAN
| FRANCISCO UNDER HENEYISM
These hypocrites have drawn around
them all the nondescripts in politics
and in reform They have opened a
veritable cave of Adullam into which
they have invited all the party out
laws, all the political humbugs and po-
litical pirates of the city for the pur-
pose of doing to Los Angeles exactly
what Tammany does to New York"
Is there one word of truth in this
statement2
It is founded, no doubt, on the fact
that the people of Los Angeles are de-
termined to maintain as a municipal
policy the greatest good for the great
est number, instead Of the enrichment
and prosperity of a.few at the expense
of the people, and will combat vigor-
ously the attempted re-establishment
of a reign of lawlessness, corruption,
immortality and graft to take the place
of the reign of Americanism and civic
righteousness which has made Los An
geles famous for good government and
progress.

HERALD EDITORIAL ON
WORK RECEIVES PRAISE

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 31.-tEditor
Ierald1: The short editorial on Work
in today's issue reflects honor on The
Herald and incidentally on other con-
scientious newspapers, for II demon
strates simply, clearly and effectively
the principle on which human progress
and happiness depend. I would enlarge
the scope and say not merely the
natural world was intended for uses
performed by work, but that the king
dom Of heaven itself is a kingdom of
uses; that work and usefulness do
not end with death, which is merely
change Of state; that the spirit of
man lives hereafter, spiritual man
continuing it's activity to eternity, for
life is activity and activity is life. On
the other hand any sensible man is
convinced of the fact that when useful
ness ceases the subject must pass away
and make room for more efficient
agents to cooperate with divine law
with which natural laws must har-
monize. Laws are not the power, the
life and activity themselves, but the
mode and manner in which that power
acts and is manifested. Law implies a
law giYer and the means by which 1t
is carried out. There are many who
believe in the power of nature, limit
themselves to 1t and refuse to elevate
their minds to ask the question, Where
does that power originate? For surely
nature is not God, but created by God,
who is the essence and origin of all
activity and therefore of life. That
editorial is worth framing, and should
be conspicuously displayed, for 1t can
bear any amount Of "reiteration."

COMES TO DEFENSE OF
THE SALVATION ARMY

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 2.-[Editor
Herald: Elizabeth Quigley, in her
letter of your issue of the 30th ult.,
tries to confound politics and religion.
Commander Booths references to
women referred to women with homes.
AS is a recognized fact there are mil
lions of women of today who have to
make a living for themselves. Miss
Booth is herself one, but by the great
gifts God has given her and she has
cultivated she today commands the
respect and attention of the civilized
world, when twenty years ago she was
unknown.
Commander Booth has not rushed
into politics to make name for her
self of this world, but has devoted her
life's work for the benefit of poor souls
of this earth, thereby recording her
name in the kingdom of God.
| do not think Elizabeth Quigley
can understand the true work of the
Salvation Army when she says the
army depends on paupers. The main
spring of the Salvation Army work is
to bring souls to the knowledge of
the great and glorious love of God;
whether human being is lying in the
street gutter in rags and filth or sit
ting on a throne in the magnificence
of royalty or head of a nation, their
salvation Is the same in the sight or

THINKS MAN HAS PARTIAL
POWER TO SHAPE DESTINY

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 2.-[Editor
Herald: Whether man is a free agent
or a creature of circumstances has ap-
parently become a subject for endless
controversy This is because men do
not generally reason from observable
facts, but from the current opinion
among mankind. Neither the opinion
expressed on the subject by Savonarola
nor that of f. F. G.. is adequate as an
explanation; for the truth is on both
sides of this question. One man is a
fatalist within certain circumstances,
while another, with self-intentional mo-
tives for conduct, will mould them to
his will. To make clear my meaning,
lei me present typical case as an il
Iustration.
In this city live two parents, well
known to me, with a large family of
boys The majority of them are like
many other young men, who spend
their spare time in idleness and amuse-
ment' But one of the younger boys
elected to do differently; he went to
night school to learn architectural
drawing, and soon secured position as
draughtsman in one of the large offices
in our city. But he did not remain
content. His evenings were utilized i'm
the study of newspaper cartooning, and
While yet in his teens he secured posi-

ton on one of the large papers of Los
Angeles Later his work became noted
east; he was sent for by large east
ern newspaper, at a salary that but
few young men can command. Now
why did he succeed so well. while his
brothers with equal opportunity for
study did not succeed at all? The an
swer is apparent and simple. one willed
TO overcome the soddenness of his en-
vlronment and lack of education, and
succeeded. The others willed TO do
nothing, but were content to crafty
the. ever-changing desires of their
senses, and therefore are failures.
The absolute freedom of the human
will is, however, never realized. Hered-
ifary conditions and environments are
very powerful influences, which to a
large degree shape our conduct and des-
tiny; but they are not absolute. Every
human being has measure of freedom
to act, and in proportion as he volun-
tarily acts, and in proportion to the
favorableness OF his environment and
mental and physical endowment will
be the measure of his success.

God, and there lies the work of the
Salvation Army. or, as matter OF
fact, any true Christian. Then every
soul on this great earth will sing the
praises of God and bow the knee in
worship, then perhaps the Salvation
Army might go out of business, but 1

the true success, will never be known

AMONG OUR coLoREO PEOPLE

Last Thursday night at Mt. Zion A.
NJ. E. church the banquet for the
children of the Sunday school took
place. The banquet was the idea of
the efficient superintendent, F. P.
Gadson. as a reward to the children
for attending the regular services of
the church.
The banquet was served on a table
10 feet long, which had been built for
the occasion, and was covered with
linen tableclotbs and laid with china
and silverware Vases of choice cut
flowers adorned the table, and the
whole presented a beautiful scene.
About 175 were fed, despite the fact
that q drenching rain kept many from
attending. Among the articles served
by the teachers, who acted as walters,
We noticed the following: Chicken,
ham sandwiches, Irish potato salad.
salmon salad. six varieties OF cake.
TWO kinds of ice cream. lemonade
candies. bananas, pickles and mixed
nuts.
This banquet was merely a chill
dren's affair. and although many Of
the older ones were necessarily pres
ent, the children were the guests of
honor and received the first attention.
1t is needless to say that the ban
quet was appreciated by the little
ones. What was not expressed in
words could be read on their happy
little faces. After the benediction all
joined in praising this banquet. and
We may safely say that it will go
down as an event of many a Sunday
school boy and girl.-Metropolis.
