ADVOCATES NON-PARTlSAN
LOCAL ADMINISTRATION

Los ANGELES, Sept. 19.-[Editor
Herald There are two results that
should follow the late injustice perpe-
trated on Los Angeles county by the
state board of equalization, as surely
as day follows night. They are, first.
in the immediate present, defeat in
Los Angeles county for the railroad
ticket, and, second, ultimately, state
division.
'They whom the gods would de-
stroy, they first make mad" The
railroad politicians are mad-angry at
the southern portion Of the state for
its successful combination against
them. 1t is here they meet defeat,
not in San Francisco. In the northern
city the reform forces always are di-
vided into factions, and the railroad
walks into control through its candi-
dates on the Democratic or Repub-
lican ticket. 1t makes little or no
difference which of the old-line parties
wins, because the railroad is repre-
sented largely on both tickets.
AS to the first results, that is in
evitable, viz, defeat in Los Angeles
county of the railroad-not "Repub-
lican"-ticket, one of the greatest
blunders of the mad railroad poll
ticians is the attendant attempt to
destroy the operation of the new pri-
mary law in this county. Had the
machine" been properly advised it
would never have made the mistake
it has avoided making for many years.
To fool the citizen-like the ink fish
to conceal its operations cloak its can
didates in the garb Of respectability-
has always been its aim. 1t has not
for many years thus come into the
open in a non-presidential year. We
find the railroad in Los Angeles coun-
ty in the open, though attempting to
masquerade under the name "Repub-
lican." Like the ostrich, with its head
concealed in the sand-denominating
its ticket "Republican'-bu with it's
body exposed, it has made the mis-
take of throwing down the gauntlet
to the voters in this county with so
thin a disguise.
The trend of good citizenship is nom
partisan in purely local affairs. In
Los Angeles county, more than any
where else in this state, is that rec
ognized. With our recall mayor MAX
ing good, our great non-partisan COM
missions, our great public undertake
ings-some of national import--our re-
cent riddance of corrupt officials,
placed in office by the railroad, we
are keenly alive to our duty as citi-
zens. With us the issue is MEN, not
party. Knowing well the machine
methods, I marvel greatly at the great
mistake it has made in this county.
Let the non-partisan and reform
forces unite, and. united, absolute de-
feat for the machine is assured. Thus
this portion of the state will be nearly
divested of the incubus which rail-
road domination has ever been. Eman-
cipation ultimately means for the
southern portion of the state to re-
pudiate the conquered and controlled
north. STATE DIVISION is MUCH
NEARER NOW.
' The great injustice of the tax bur-
den imposed upon us will deliver us
from control of the railroad machine
in the county of Los Angeles, and
soon in the state of South California.

CITIZENSHIP

A CONTROVERSY over the natural
ization of a Turk raises ques-
IA ton as to whether the Turk Is
a white man. Sometimes the policy
of excluding foreigners from natural
ization becomes ludicrous on account
of its inconsistency. The main point
is. there are certain races. notably the
Chinese and the southern European,
the members of which, when admitted
to the United States, rapidly reduce
the competing white race to destitu-
tion.
And that's the point to be consid-
cred. The only consistent policy which
the United States could adopt would
be to exclude all new arrivals" at the
various ports of entry, excepting gen
uine tourists and bona flde travellers,
UNLESS UPON ARRIVING THEY
CAN DEMONSTRATE THEIR FIT
NESS TO BECOME AMERICAN CIT
IZENS, AND ARE WILLING TO DE-
CLARE THEIR INTENTION OF BE-
COMING CITIZENS.
OF course, incidentally they should
De IGQu4IGG ~ PAOFD NAANJ "a 4AOS S~AAA .
imported on contract, or as strike
breakers.
What is the use Of excluding for
eignc- from naturalization, If he Is al
lowed to compete with white men who
are naturaIized? There is only one
logical position on this subject that
can be taken by any sane man, with
an American family to support and de-
fend, and that is, since wage earning
conditions in the United States are
what they are, especially In the low
wage west, there should be enough
patriotism in the United States to pro-
tect American wage earners and their
families and employers should not be
allowed to hire aliens. Men who are
not good enough to be American cltI-
zens are not good enough to take the
bread out Of the mouths Of American
citizens.
Let the citizens Of the country do
the work of the country and draw the
wages of the country, and there will
be less distress, less trouble, and less
injustice and inequality in the coun-
try.
Los Angeles herald., 1909-09-24
EDUCATION

nY A GRAND march and a great
n mass meeting the children of Los
~ Angeles and citizens interested in
education yesterday protested against
the interference with education, pro-
tested against the tactics of the OBJ
structionists who hindered the sale Of
the bonds, and testified to the necessity
for more school accommodations. The
sale Of the school bonds is being boost
ed and helped by the patriotic work of
the many good citizens who have come
to the rescue, not only of education, but
Of the good name and fair fame of Los
Angeles.
And in the midst of all the pop
ular demonstration in support of edu-
cation the obstructionists were still
barking, carping and knocking.
Opponents of education will not i'm
prove their case by publishing commu-
nications like that signed Educator" !"
which appeared in yesterdays Times.
By way of a reply to the assertion that
higher education in Los Angeles has
been interfered with and would have
been brought to a standstill but for the
public spirit of citizens who came to
the rescue and subscribed for the school
bonds, this alleged educator attacks the
grammar schools of Los Angeles. The
gist of his argument, all of which, he
writes, as humbly submitted for care
full consideration by Superintendent
- fe ~ ssrrro
is neglected in Los Angeles, "sand most
of the graduates, with diplomas" who
throng the high school doors, should
be kept longer at the grammar
schools"
We are certain this is q falsehood, in
spite of the fact that the Times anony-
nous Educator" asserts: 1.-THE writer's
position for several years has been such
as to bring him in an educational way
in constant contact with grammar
school graduates and also with high
school students. He has yet to meet
an eighth grader able to stand the test
laid down in the school regulations.
He has examined first and second year
high school students who did not know
the simple rudiments of English, nor of
anything else in way to be of real
value. More yet, He can give the
name of a small boy, a fair seventh
grader, who was admitted to high
school on the certificate Of a private
tutor, from whom he had taken a few
lessons during the summer vacation"
This Times writer seems to have had
a most unfortunate and unusual ex-
perience. We don't think he would
have to look very far for an eighth
grader who was able to stand the test
laid down in the school regulations, if
only he would look intelligently and
without prejudice. A man should get
the yellow jaundice out of his system
before undertaking an investigation
like that reported by Educator"
The Times Educators" charge,
boiled down to a sentence or two. is
that the average applicant for admis-
sion to high school is unfit for promo
ton at the time of his graduation from
grammar school. This is the blackest
and most despicable of all the libelous
assertions regarding the educational
system of Los Angeles published in
misleading and unreliable columns.

CIT rs good to be an American. -
says DR.. Cook, and no one will
contradict that statement.
Ihls Is the best country in the world.
If 1t lived up to its ideals it would
De even better. No one can say it
does not surpass the standard of any
other country with which 1t may be
compared. But there is fair reason for
doubt as to the exactness with which
the conditions today would fit the
definitions of conditions laid down by
the fathers of the country. And the
definitions exist. The first principles
Of Americanism are as true as ever.
II the people Of the country do not
insist that the politicians and CORPORA
tions and various interests and tnflu-
ences of the country live up to the
principles of the country, that is GER
tainly not the fault of the principles.
and it is not the fault Of the men who
framed them.
| 1t is good to be an American, be-
cause an American knows he is en-
titled to square deal, whether he gets
it or not. No other country gives a
guarantee of life, liberty and the pur-
suit of happiness. Human selfishness
constantly interferes with human hap.

HOLLYWOOD DAY

DY the opening of the Hollywood
X tunnel the Greater Los Angeles
~ area was enriched through the
addition of a big valuable territory.
The Hollywood suburban area practi-
cally became part Of Greater Los An
geles, and the Cahuenga district was
brought into metropolitan accessibility
and well within metropolitan influence.
Undoubtedly the boundaries of Great
er Los Angeles will yet be enlarged
to take in these outlying districts,
which, tn. ks mainly to the enter
prise Of citizens Of Los Angeles, are
contributing to the value, the area,
the wealth, and the possibilities OF

population and development of the

population and development of the
great metropolis of the west.
What may be called the "occupiable"
possibilities of the Greater Los An
geles region We're further added to by
the arrangements made to bring the
biggest undivided ranch of arabic land
in South California within reach of
the people by cutting up into small
acreages. With rapid transit facill-
ties, the district will be rapidly de-
veloped and the extension of the metro
politan sphere OF influence Of Greater
An extension of the Los Angeles-Pa-
clfic line will go through the Cahuenga
pass into Lankershim and tap"
large section OF rich country. The
Glendale line will cross the valley and
connect with the Lankershim line at
Toluca.
The projected Pasadena and Santa
Monica line will give Pasadena a di-
rect line to the sea. All this develop
ment will be of immense benefit to
Greater Los Angeles; and in fact it
is with relation to the success of the me-
tropolitan whole any local "booms"
may be considered. OF the Greater
Los Angeles area, 1t may be said, what
benefits one section benefits all. The
metropolitan spirit is not one that
pits" one section against another, and
brags of one in order to decry another;
but it is the spirit that recognizes
there is only one community of inter-
est in a metropolis, and the greatest
good of the greatest number requires
sectional good and individual good,
and results in prosperity for all.
