BEEF TRUST

OIITIZENS who buy beef that has
been marketed originally by the
~ beef trust may soon have an
opportunity of celebrating the festive
season by paying an increased price
for beef. An increase in prices of trust
products has already been made or
suggested to the local retailers, but not
sufficient to warrant them in raising
the price to the ultimate con lmer."
Once in a while, under the lovely and
pleasant trust system, the retailer is
Caught" in this way. He is squeezed
out Of an extra moiety, very small on
single quotations. but aggregating large
lump sums, while he is practically de-
barred from making new prices to the
public until at last, with the trust
squeezing him, he has to give way
and "up goes the price of beef"
The increase to the retailer comes
along with news of a curtailment of
trust expenses by a reduction of staff
This staff reduction is concerned with
the canvassing sales department, and
like the increase to the retailer, has
for it's object an increase of trust
profits by the elimination of the drum
mers.
What the economy of the trust may
indicate is not known, because the
beef trust has not as yet been fined
or otherwise subjected to financial in
convenience Many of the independent
operators of Los Angeles, or those
who would be Independent If it were
not for the interloping interference Of
the trust, think the time is ripe for
making a fight in behalf of the native
or independent Californian beef indus

DECLARES MIRACLES OF
INDIA ARE NoN-ExIsTENT

ELsINORE, Nov. S.-[Edltor Her
add: Why blaspho e the Creator?
In a treatise on New Thought by Ella
titus she states that mo being, human
or divine, known to history, sacred or
profane, can be called the originator
or discoverer of mental or spiritual
healing.
"Christ learned the laws of spiritual
healing with all his other miracle
powers in India from masters older
than he"
Further, speaking of Shama Paada
Buddha, she states: "It has been dis
covered that Christ himself was a
student of these religions and had at
tained to the control of -rana. And
sailing on the wide ocean Of life I have
found the course lighted by two great
spiritual lighthouses, Buddha and
Christ. Studying the map of the world
I find evidence that these two great
masters received their illumination
from the same source, and that mas
ters older than themselves left philos-
ophy which contained all the truths of
the universe"
In the foregoing quotation she places
the son of the living God and Savior
of the world at the feet of paganism.
Was it necessary for him, with all the
power and knowledge of the universe
at his command. and the support of
the Supreme Being, whom no man, not
even Moses, could meet face to face,
the feet of pagan gods, or study the
doctrines of deceptious art?

India do not exist: and If the parties
infatuated and enchanted will take the
trouble to investigate them they will

ASKS HOW MEN CAN REFORM
BY BALLOT WHEN IN PRISON

LOS ANGELES. Nov. 7.-[Edi.or
Herald: Will DR.. Trevino inform Her.
aid readers how Mexican workers are
going to form themselves into a po-
litical party, and use the ballot con-
scientiously to free themselves from
despotism? Does he not know that Mex
leo has been ruled by that one man
Diaz. who has used the military and
police power to perpetuate his despot-
ic rule? How can the people of Mex
leo constitute themselves the political
power when four-fifths of the Mexican
people are disfranchised by the use of
the troops at the polls to prevent the
opposition of Diaz from voting? and the
Jail and firing squad for the leaders of
the opposition? The intimation that the
articles ("Barbarous MeXico) in the
American Magazine are written for the
benefit of American capitalists is, Ii
seems to me, an attempt to maliciously
injure the characters of those two men
who have jeopardized their lives in
getting data to expose the inhuman
oppression of the Mexican people. Both
of these men are Socialists, and If DR..
Trevino would know these men as do
he would not for one minute harbor
the sentiment that these men are
working in the interests of American
capitalists. If the educational and
organizing work among the Mexicans
End Americans in this country is in
the interest of the capitalists of Amer
lea, why on earth did the capitalists ST.
lence the voices of those Mexican pa
triots-Magon, Villareal and Rivera-by
sentencing them to two years in prl-
son? I ask. again, why was Senorita
Villareal kidnapped recently, and is
now languishing as a political prisoner
in some Mexican dungeon If she was
helping the American capitalists? He
also states that if Mexico wanted De
Lara they would have got him long
ago. DIR. Trevino, Is IT not fact that
Russia wanted Rudowitch and Pou-
rem? Did it get them? Was the cry
raised to save them from extradition
for the capitalistic interests of the
country? Was it not the Socialists
who realized that the interests of labor
all over the world were and are iden-
tical, that raised the cry all over the
States to save the political refugees of
other countries from extradition? Yes.
1t is our duty as Americans, who still
have little liberty-loving blood in our
veins, to protect those elementary
rights which we still possess, and also
protect political refugees from all for
eign despots.

VOTE

LIVERY citizen who values his citi-
n zenship will take part in the Sc
lection Of candidates by voting
at the primary nominating election.
Since this election has been instituted
for the purpose of bringing about a
restoration OF power to the people, by
placing in their control instead of In
that of political bosses and cliques the
selection of men to be voted for at the
election, citizens should use the power
it restores to them and should place
in nomination candidates who will
make worthy, efficient and honest
public officials. 1t is a long time since
Grover Cleveland characterized public
office as public trust, and he was
pioneer and an exemplar of the idea
in an age that was reeking and
rotten with spoils craft, graft and
corruption to such an extent that
any comedian on the stage who
wished to evoke a guffaw of laugh
ter had merely to suggest that
a politician could be clean and honor
able. And it is a long time since an
other epigrammatist, John ]. ingalls,,
said purity in politics is an iridescent
dream. Under ever-improving infiu-
ences, which, as far as the human ex-
preston of them goes. reached a cli-
max in Theodore Roosevelt, people
have come to realize the force of the
saying, not only that public office is
a public trust, but is Of all trusts the
most sacred. They no longer regard
purity in politics as an tridescent
dream, but insist on it.
The best public opinion has gone a
step further with regard to municipal
affairs and has reached a point where,
conscious there is always danger of
undue influence or of graft where
there is a machine-and there is al
ways a machine where there is pol
itics-it insists on the elimination of
party politics from municipal affairs,
believing, with Theodore Roosevelt:
"The worst evils that affect our local
governments arise from and are the
inevitable result of the mixing up of
the city affairs with the party politics
of the nation and the state. The lines
upon which national parties divide
have no necessary connection with the
business of the city; such connections
open the way to countless schemes of
plunder and civic corruption"
Vote at the primary, and vote, not
with regard to your attitude toward
the affairs of the state or the nation,
but with reference to the affairs of the
city Of Los Angeles and your honest

CITES ANOTHER INSTANCE
OF POLICE INTOLERANCE

LOS. ANGELES, Nov. 5.-[Editor
Herald: In todays Herald read that
Mr.. Steel and another gentleman, who
were arrested a short time ago,
charged with violating the street
speaking ordinance, claim that they
were merely having a private conver-
sation. This / believe to be true, for
7 know the police are becoming more
intolerant every day. and are con-
tinually prying into and meddling in
priyato affairs. About two weeks ago,
while passing the corner of Fifth and
Spring streets, I saw two gentlemen
conversing in a quiet tone OF voice.
No one could hear what they said,
without being ill-mannered enough to
listen. SO 1 was very much surprised
and became very indignant when a
bullying policeman walked up saying,
That Is all this? Another Socialist
meeting? You guys have got to move
away from this corner" Is there any
law to the effect that citizens shall

CHARGES MISUSE OF TERMS
IN DESCRIBING FERRER

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 6.-[Editor,
Herald: I venture to think Mr.. Has
kin, in his article on 1.-THE Troubles of
Spain," scarcely shows his customary
nice sense of the values OF terms when
he uses the word "intolerant" to de-
scribe Francisco Ferrers attitude to-
ward priestly obscurantism and tyr
amy. True, he was "intolerant," lust
as truth is intolerant of error and false
hood, as justice is intolerant of injus-
tice-yet, as Hamlet says, "I hold IT
not honest to have 1t thus set down"
To say that Ferrer was intolerant of
certain specified views, acts, methods
or conditions would be one thing: to
describe him BADLY as "intolerant" is
in view of the common face value of
that word-decidedly misleading and
libelous.
notice, too, Mr., H. says ''Ferrer was
bounded 10 felon's death despite even
the pleas of the Vatican" Now all
have read elsewhere leads me to ques-
tion that there was any Vatican plea
in Ferrer's favor since 1t was the
church that was his most active enemy.
and the press has not, so far as I
know, reported any Intervention bv
the pope-but only a pious wish that
he could console the suppliant daugh-

FORWARD

(ECy PEAK unto the people of Los
Angeles that they go FOR
~ WARD" is the order of the day.
The history of this city has been
history of progress. Forward" is its
watchword. Much has been achieved
Much remains to be achieved.
The prosperity of the city was seri-
ously imperiled and its forward march
was impeded by the conditions of the
departed days of graft.
Let your vote at the primary nom
mating election be a record Of your
appreciation of the improvement that
has taken place in metropolitan NUM-
cipal conditions, and a protest against
the possibility of a return to the old
days when Los Angeles was disgraced
by some of the worst officeholders ever
booted out of their places by indignant
citizens
BY those officeholders graft was pro-
tected in this city of homes. A shame
ful system OF levying blackmail was
instituted. and the creatures who ac-
eepted the blackmail or protection
money were the men TO whom the citi-
zens of Los Angeles had entrusted the
government and the guardianship of
the city.
Looking backward, and contrasting
conditions then, when the prosperity of
the city was menaced by protected vice,
with conditions now when prosperity is
helped by good government, every citi-
zen who values the progress that has
been made and detests the very thought
of the loathsome slough from which the
official affairs of the city were rescued,
will take pains to vote at the primary
nominating election and to cast his
vote early for candidates who will
worthily represent the cause Of good
government.
Do not neglect your duty. Do your
part toward helping the cause Of good
government and promoting the pros
perity of Los Angeles by voting for
candidates who will represent both.
And they are inseparable. Los Angeles
cannot have prosperity without good
government. Los Angeles, with good
government, is sure to have continued
and greater prosperity.
