SALARIES

N AN article on the subject of "Sal-
aries" published in Los Angeles
Herald we had no intention Of in
tlmating that the laborer was not wor-
thy of his hire, or the city treasurer of
MS salary. On the contrary, we had
hoped we had made plain, by an ap-
peal to humor, what were our opinions
as to the entire local salary situation.
IN which, of course, the city treasurer's
salary is included. The article was
written for the express and explicit
purpose Of helping the cause of the
hard working salary earners who are
beginning to say that, in proportion to
rents and living and general expenses.
the salaries in Los Angeles are LOW.
What we said in the article we repeat.
THE people of California NAV be ex
travagant in some respects, but we
have never heard the charge of extrav-
agance in salaries preferred against
them" In fact, we cannot imagine
where any reasonable grounds could be
discovered on which such a charge
could be founded. In comparison with
the great responsibilities of the office
the vast amount of money handled and
the onerous burden of work that is
borne, the emolument of the city treas
urer is LOW. Mr.. Hewitt says it is
hardly respectable salary for an
ordinary bank clerk and we say that
in eastern cities of the size Of Los An
geles it would be barely the salary of
the city treasurer's shorthand clerk.
In proportion to the average run of
salaries in Los Angeles it is not low.
But in proportion to what it SHOULD
be it is most certainly low. A city tina.
assumes the tremendous financial re-
sponsfbilities which are cheerfulIv and
bravely accepted by Los Angeles ought
to do better for its own people: and
for the sake of the reputation and the
FINANCIAL CREDIT of Los Angeles.
if for nothing else, salaries should be
brought to standard which will not
be ridiculous when compared with the
city's size, population, wealth, indebt-
edness and metropolitan Importance.

V. S. PUTS ANOTHER ONE OF
HIS TNsoLUBLE" QUESTIONS

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 12.-LEditcr
HERALD: In that my previous question,
while it brought some REPLIES from
the all-mind-no-matter" people failed
TO elicit single ANSWER, I claim
no merit; any fool can ask an insolu-
Ole question. But to do so is some
times useful in that it throws into due
reIlef the folly of those who, having
pretended to a solutio--, are unable to
make good when the issue is square
ly-and clearly-broached.
l want now to put another simple
one:
The Christian Scientist, deeming all
evil but an illusion of mortal mind. and
matter nonresident, claims that pain
ana disease have no reality and that
sickness and death only occur Cor ap-
pear to occur) because mortal error
thinks" them. And when you ask:
How about the week-old baby, who
cahnot think his collie; or the man
VINO died from poison he had taken I'M
knowingly, or again, the man who. like
fheld, died when he and those about
MN thought he was getting well ?''-
the christian Scientist will answer. aft
Qoes not matter what the INDIVID-
UAL knows or thinks; the preponderat-
ing mass OF error, not necessarily close
a. udIIu, Out In THE WORLD
AROUND, accomplishes the evil"
Now, whit L want explained-in
language that REALLY EXPLAINS. Is
thls: If 1t is not the PATIENTS OWN
thought (nor the thought of those i'm
nedlately surrounding that operates
10 decide the course of his Cor herr dis
temper, but the overwhelming mass of
error filling the wide, wide world, how
can 1t be claimed that Mrs. Eddy alone
or even Mrs. Eddy plus her first
thousand or ten thousand adherents-
could prevail against a WHOLE
WORLD OF ERROR to produce those
INITIAL cures (alleged), the parading of
when has drawn ever more and more
belevers into the Christian Science
ranks? In other words, If a ton ont
weigh an ounce, how can an ounce ever
BEGIN to outweigh a ton?

SMOKEGRAFT

nUBLIC office is a public trust and
when public office becomes COM
mercialized it very naturally be-
comes subject of public distrust. The
Herald has shown that Los Angeles Of
ficials used their official influence to
force on the local market in competi-
ton with goods made in Los Angeles
brand of cigars imported from the
east. 70 representative Of Los An
geles Herald a restaurant keeper ad-
m1tted not only that he dealt in
Smokecraft cigars instead Of in cigars
manufactured here, but also that he
was stakeholder in Mayor Harper's
oil company, that he bought his meat
from the company organized by Mayor
Harper and that the brewer he patron
lied was a stakeholder in the sugar
company in which Mayor Harper and
Police Commissioner Cole were inter-
ested.
According to the testimony obtained
by The Herald, high official influence
has been used in connection with the
introduction of goods which are sold
to and by local dealers in competition
with better goods made in Los An
geles." Both the merchants and the
customers suffer from this kind Of
meddling. A cigar that must be
smoked with an official pull is surely
too strong for the public.

PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM IN
GREATEST NEED OF REFORM

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 11.-rEditor
HeraIdI: Your article on School Books,
touches only a. small part Of the public
school system, although a pertinent
one. Having spent over forty wears in
the publishing business I know that to
the cost OF publishing school books is
added the corruption fund necessary ~
get the school board to adopt the book
Inns, OF course, is added to the price
OF the book, and parents have to pay
tnelr part OF the corruption fund.
reforms are in order, and if there is
any part of our government that needs
reforming 1T is the public school sys-
tenn. We spend annually millions, ave
billions, of dollars in our efforts to re-
form children of a larger growth (men
and women) by building and maintain
ing Jails, reform schools, asylums. poor
houses, soup kitchens and the bread
line. Let us take those vast sums and
reform our school system by providing
absolute free education, and, if neces-
sary, food and clothing and domicile.
The state licenses men and women to
marry; then the state should provide
Tor the offspring of such unions when
the parents are unable, through poverty
or vicious conduct, to do so.
Paternalism," says one; Socialism
says another. I call it common sense
to rescue the children from vicious en-
vironment and give them a chance to
become useful citizens Of this great re-
public that claims it's laws are made
to conserve the greatest good to the
greatest number

CALHOUN

N WENTY MONTHS after his first
indictment on the charge of offer
- ing brides to Schmitz' board of
supervisors, Patrick Calhoun, president
of the United Railroads, has been
placed on trial on one of the three
supplemental indictments since re-
turned against him. The most dramatic
and striking circumstance of the trial.
Of course, is the presence of Assistant
his old post at the prosecutors desk.
The state, the nation and the civilized
world will watch the course of this trial
with keenest interest.
The charge against Mr.. Calhoun is
practically similar to that preferred
against Jacob Sharp in New York years
ago. After various Doodle aldermen
had been tried and convicted, the prose-
cutting authorities, urged by the news
papers, made what was at the time ac-
cepted as a test case of the RESPONSE
bility of those who used money to in
f1uence legislation. Although there was
some sympathy with Sharp because of
the fact it was generally known the
method of doing business for which he
was on trial had been practiced by 9TH
err magnates who desired favors or fran
chises, and because it was recognized
that the railroad on Broadway was a
most desirable addition to thes meager
rapid transit facilities of New York,
the trial was conducted with rigor and
vigor, and he was found guilty.
The principle established in New
York was that the corporation or cor
poration agent that debauches public
officials, councils or boards is equally
guilty with the persons whose votes
have been bought" Mr.. Heney is to
be congratulated on his restoration to
complete health. In his fighting prime
he now announces: Il will convict every
one of the grafters before quit"

(rEOIH MOnIf
The Los Angeles Herald has com
menced a campaign of exposure of the
city government of Los Angeles which,
If continued to it's logical conclusion in
the fair and convincing manner in
which it has been begun, will prove
thorn in the side of Mayor Harpers
Times-DemOcratic machine and per-
haps overthrow the coterie Of small
politicians who at present rule the des-
TIMES of our fair and loved metropolis
OF Southern California.
The Herald goes at it's task with
calm and determined air. There are
no fuss and feathers and no skyrockets
in its method of exposure, but it cuts to
the bone with serious facts from appar-
emily authentic sources. 1t charges that
Mayor Harper's first police commits
sioners used their power over liquor
dealers for stock jobbing purposes.
The Herald discloses startling facts
about the organization of three corpo-
rations, viz, the Pacific Sugar corpo-
ration, the Pacific Sugar company and
the Pacific Securities company, and
shows that the police commission held
stock in these corporations as follows:

AS THE BELL=WETHER LEADS,
so ALL THE SHEEP FOLLOW

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 13-[Editor
Herald: That the comparatively new
brand of superstition known as Chris
tian Science, through which are sprin-
killed. a few common sense ideas, is
destined to have an immense follow
ing is a fact beyond question. The
reason is found in the sheep-like char
acteristics of the human biped Let
a leader appear with any kind of a
fad or folly, connected with an I'M
limited supply Of words, and followers
will appear like magic.
Up in Washington recently on a
mountain trail the bell-wether leading
several thousand sheep slipped over a
precipice and went down into a river
and the whole band followed and was
drowned. Everyone can draw his own
moral.
The whole world is full of sickness,
owing to the violation of physical laws
and improper modes Of living, and
along comes Mrs. Eddy, denying the
existence of matter, wherein sickness
finds all its causes, directly or in
directly: She proceeds to work the
suggestion that certain beliefs stead
lastly held will remove any disease
and cure any sickness. These beliefs
take you back of matter and into the
realms of the unknown and the I'M
knowable; and her affirmations are
founded in what reason tells us is
purely imaginary.
Emerson called our attention to this
fact: When you go back of phenomena
all philosophy is lost, and it is well to
keep it in mind, for back of phenom-
ena is where Mrs. Eddy does her work
in defining God and his character and
power.

ON a technicality the custom of
granting free licenses to worthy
- poor persons DESTROYS of making
an honest living in Los Angeles will
be discontinued. It Is not legal for
the city to aid deserving persons to
keep out of the poorhouse. 1t Is legal
to have them come to grief and then
to expend a great deal more money
in taking care of them in hospitals
or almshouses than would be lost by
allowing them to have free licenses
While we cannot quarrel with the con-
struction of the existing law we are
as little disposed as ever we have been
to agree that any person may legally
be starved to death in the United
States through being legally prevented
from earning pittance on which life
might be supported.
We know there are plenty Of char
liable institutions in Los Angeles and
that no one needs to starve to death,
but there are some persons so quixot-
ically foolish they would rather allow
their fellow men to kill them with hun
ger than swallow their stupid pride
and ask their fellow men for aims.
Since this is fact, as inseparable
from human nature as independence
is from the United States, we should
accept the fact and should be careful
to avoid doing aught which might
countenance criticism that we pun
ish the poor because Of their poverty.
We know the Bible says-no doubt
apropos Of just such cases as the
revocation of free licenses-"the de-
struction of the poor is their pow
erty,'' but in the three thousand years
that have come and sped since that
immortal proverb was first written we
should have learned far more than we
have about a reform which would re-
suit from the destruction of poverty
instead of the poor.

CONSOLIDATION

A DVOCATES Of the consolidation
IA bill are amused to hear that the
"a chief antagonist of the measure,
Senator Savage, is appealing to ancient
history and quoting obsolete documents
and out-of-date records in his attempt
to prove his case. The secretary of
Los Angeles harbor commission says
Senator Savage Is evidently using an
old draft Of the charter amendments.
Angeles is trying to take 10 per cent
of the taxes which would be collected
in San Pedro. Mr.. Fleming says the
first draft, which Savage evidently be-
lieves is still extant, followed the Iowa
collection law, which provides that 10
per cent of the taxes collected by coun-
ties for cities shall go to the county to
cover the cost of clerical work. When
it was found this idea would excite OPP
position it was eliminated. Therefore,
Senator Savage is making a fight
against something which does not eX-
list.
1t is demonstrated beyond cavil that
the overwhelming sentiment of Los
Angeles and San Pedro is in favor of
the consolidation bill. 1t is of the
greatest Importance to Los Angeles and
to Southern California that the harbor
of San Pedro should be absolutely free
from corporation influence and control,
and that it's right to be regarded as the
natural seaport of Los Angeles should
be respected.

VICE PRESIDENT PALMER

N ENGLISH newspaper has pub
IA Gshed a portrait which could easily
- be mistaken for that of Vice Presi-
dent-elect Sherman. But the picture is
labeled Mr.. James S. Palmer, vice
president-elect of the United States. 1t
looks exactly like that Of Mr.. Sherman.
The newspaper, however, disabuses the
mind Of the reader Of any impression
derived from the mere outward aspect
of the picture by saying cheerfully:
''Mr. James S. Palmer, vice president
elect of the United States, may possibly
look forward to filling one day the po-
sition of president. 1t will be remem-
bered that on the death Of President
Mckinley, Mr.. Roosevelt, who was then
vice president, succeeded automatically
to the presidency without opposition.
Should anything happen to Mr.. Taft
(Which we sincerely hope for his sake
may not be the case) Mr.. Palmer would
probably, if precedent were followed,
take his place"

would not have believed it could have
been printed in any part of the civil
lied world. But "seeing's believing"

IDEALISM VS.. MATERIALISM
THEORETICAL OR PRACTICAL?

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 13.-[Editor
HERALD: Archbishop Wall once in a
controversy with Huxley, I think
said the appellation of "infdeP' had
and ought to have-an unpleasant i'm
plication. Is it not much the same to-
day with the designation "materialist'' :?
The theoretical idealist is apt to speak
as though to be a materialist were
something gross and swinish. Let US
examine this:
The man who theories on the uni
verse from the standpoint of matter
may be, and in my experience gener-
ally is, an idealist on human conduct
and duty; his standard of ethics may
be the noblest. He may be-like so
many Socialists upon whom the ''slur'
of materialism is so freely cast-one
who devotes much self-sacrificing effort
to the cause Of human uplift, with
never a. thought Of pecuniary or other
individual material recompense.
On the other hand an idealist, like
the Christian Scientists, who tend to
be largely of the well-to-do people who
have succeeded in amassing a more or
less ample proportion of this worlds
goods; and whose leaders and prac-
titioners demand relatively rich ma
terial returns for their literature and
ministrations-may, though a theOreti-
cal idealist, yet be a practical material
list when 1t comes to worldly wealth and
the pursuit thereof. Yet he is the
'idealist" all the time, while the other
is the ''materialist'' (derogatory impli-
cation, of course, included).
1t is patent, think, that we need to
use some qualifying or defining term in
conjunction with the word material
ISM" We should differentiate sharply
hot he oot4
cal in both idealism and materialism.
