Gentiles who We're generally and cheer
fully referred to by Jews (and on one
memorable occasion by. Jesus himself
In a passage he quoted) as dogs"
This is the day of the dogs" and in
their evolution and civilization they
have advanced from last place to first
fulfilling the prophecy of Jesus and
taking the leadership Of the world.
Yet their racial exaltation is accom-
panied by a constant reminder of the
humiliation to which once upon time
they were subjected by the Hebrews.
Americanism recognizes neither Jew
nor Gentle. and one of the most ad-
mirable conditions Of this country is
it places all forms of religion on an
equal plane Of toleration. And every
man has an equal chance in business
and society. There Is one part of the
Christian religion with which neither
Hebrew nor heterodox may quarrel,
and that is its instruction in courtesy,
1t teaches its followers to treat others
exactly as well and as graclously and
as kindly and as COURTEoUsLY as
they would have others treat them;
and no man who refuses courtesy and
kindness to his brother. but substitutes
churlishness and craft, is good Chris
tian, a good Jew or a good American.
There is no rule as good as the Golden
Rule, and none that is broken so reck-
lessly and so irresponsibly.

BELIEVES LAW OF HEREDlTY
RENDERED NULL AND VOID

OCEAN PARK, Nov. 1S.-[Editor
Heraldl Our erudite friend f. f. s.
grows peeVish, yet with -complacent
exultation refers TO his superior per-
spicacity in ranting persitlage. His
environment and heredity hobby is
nothing more nor less than the evolu-
tionary theory or as L might term 1t,
the illusionary theory and l am will
ing to confess that from his premise,
the allness of materiality. he proves his
position, but 1 claim and know that
there is a principle or power which is
above all, which controls man, regu-
lates his life and we'll being and
changes evil environment for good,
and that this power is the divine or
universal intelligence which is not ma
terial, is not resident in material en-
Vironment and renders null and void
the so-called law of heredity.
If +. r. S. comprehends what this is
even in q degree he would then be able
to appreciate my view point, but like
those st. Paul refers to who when
they knew God glorified him not as
God" but processing themselves wise
they became FOOLS" Let e. +. S. study
his emotions, sensations and senti-
ments, the false attributes of coun-
terfeit intelligence. But his house is
built on sand, with egoistic conceit he
may feel charmed with his subtle and

realms of mortal intelligence.
If f. Il. S. will study j. j. DIS recent
communications he win find my views
accurately set forth.
l do not ignore the truth, as Mr..
White asserts, but this truth Is Christ,
the great 1 am, and st. Paul, contrary
to his declaration, said he could do
all through Christ" This is my posi-
ton exactly but st. Paul previously
comedies that his mortal or human idea
of intelligence, the free-will of human
ity, could not accomplish any good,
though when guided by divine truth,
the true idea Of life, he could do all,
"As in Adam all die, even so in Christ
are all made alive" to the truth or
true basis of mans government. TO
be "fallen in Adam" is to believe that
man is the creation of material envir-
onment and heredity. ITO him that
hath an ear let him hear" r. N.

RATIFICATION

MAGNIFICENT mass meeting
"A held last evening at Blanchard
IA hall ratified the Good Government
ticket and pledged support TO the
cause of which Mayor Alexander and
the Good Government candidates are
the champions and representative ad-
vocates.
Public enthusiasm for the cause as
sures the success of all the meetings
that will be held in connection with it..
The speakers are aggressive, While
the machine" speakers in the very
nature of things must constantly be
on the. defensive. The big ratification
meeting was a remarkable dcmonstra-
tion of the business strength of the
Good Government movement. Many
of the most prominent men Of Los An
geles and citizens representing great
financial, industrial and commercial
interests are in line with the clearest
thinking and most experienced of the
professional men, and the cause of
Good Government must win and will

LAST FIRST

KIN HE last shall be first" This
significant remark Of Jesus of
Il Nazareth was addressed to
certain Hebrews whose zeal for what
they stupidity mistook for precedence"
was merely an illustration of their
decadence. The mistaken zeal for
precedence has been characteristic of
all peoples, but especially was it
marked among the Hebrews, in whom
Jesus rebuked it repeatedly and point
edly. Humility is an admirable trait,
as far as it goes, but when the humility
is involuntary and is the result of the
ignorant arrogance of an erring brother
it is not any more a virtue in the hu-
inflated than is the arrogance of the
self promoter a virtue.
Jesus in all his preachings and
teachings advocated common sense.
He knew that without common sense
the Hebrews to whom he particularly
addressed himself were in an even more
deplorable condition than were the

JOHN BURR

A NECDOTES Of former Sheriff John
n Burr which are now in circulation
IA throw many sidelights. on the
Scottish character he exemplified. This
character is frequently and indeed gem
orally misrepresented, chiefly owing to
the assiduous cockney efforts Of the
late Rev. Sydney Smith and the con-
tinuous London Punch.
Any one who is at all familiar with
the Celtic character in any Of its man
ifestations knows the Scottish Celt is
no exception to the law which not only
endows the men of his blood with an
extra keen sense Of humor-so keen
that they refuse to see any wit in a
Saxon pun-but makes them, racialIy,
the most prodigally, and we might say
thriftlessly generous Of mortals For
every Celt who accumulates a fortune
at the expense of his fellow men there
are thousands who take no selfish
thought for the morrow, but believe in
using for the benefit Of their families
and Of mankind the gifts Of Providence
or the rewards of toll.
A Los Angeles man who after an un-
successful venture returned to this city
dead broke, driving a few mules-all
the worldly goods he had-was met by
one Of Sheriff Burr's men, who served
an attachment on the mules. This for
mality of the law having been compiled
with, Sheriff Burr paid the judgment
out of his own pocket ana gave the
poor fellow his mules Later on, when
tn, poor man had become a rich man,
he paid Burr the amount advanced and
added a check for interest. Burr tore
up the check and was las mad as a
yellow hornet" at the suggestion that
he should make money out of his gen
erosity.
We believe stories like this could be
multiplied Although i'm self defense
they may drive hard bargains, most oi
the Celts, whether Scotch or Irish, are
as "penurious" as that excellent and
patriotic Californian, John Burr whose
name by the way, in English means
nothing more nor less than thistle

GOOD CANDIDATES

WY HILE the election Of Mayor Alex
w ander is of vital Importance to
w the best interests of Los An
geles, 1t is of equal moment that all
the officeholders of the next Alexander
administration should be men devoted
to good government. imbued with its
principles and appreciative of the fact
that good government not only means
the triumph Of Americanism in Greater
Los Angeles, but assures prosperity to
the ever increasing population of this
thriving metropolis of the west. Mayor
Alexander. supported by a good gov
ernment council and good government
officeholders, will give this city an ad-
ministration that Is certain to send it
several notches UP in the scale of the
greater American cities. The Bible
tells us good government exalts a ma
tion, and it EXALTS A CITY.
Clarence NJ. Taggart, candidate for
city tax and license collector, should be
supported by all advocates of good gov
ernment and Of a businesslike admin
istration of the affairs Of the city. Mr..
Taggart's election to the colectorship
is a matter of great Importance. The
office in the past is one that has been
exploited rather than administered for
the greatest good of the greatest num-
Der Of the taxpayers Of Los Angeles.
With Mr.. Taggart in control the bus-
ness of the office would be transacted
in a thorough and a businesslike way.
License fees would be collected. Money
would be made for the city and money
saved for 1t.
The success of the candidature Of
John S. Myers for city auditor is, from
a business point of view, greatly to be
wished, and every effort should be
made to assure that success.
Citizens who value the good name
and the advancement Of the interests
Of the city should also see to it that
the council sent to the city hall should
be composed of citizens Of the highest
type Of character and of business ex-
perience and ability. 1t is important
citizens of Los Angeles should bend
every energy toward assuring the cleo
tion Of Josias j. Andrews, Martin f.
Betkouski, Miles S. Gregory, Z. l..

MAkeS PLEA FOR MORE
OPEN WORK IN FOOTBALL

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 19.-[Editor
Herald: 1t is time some one organ
ize q committee to compel Mr.. Foot
ll-Rules- Maker to change his rules or
football 50 that we will have more
open field work, more field play, and a
more scientific game, with less eXhlpi-
tion of brute force. 1t is necessary,
from present Indications of the number
OF our fine young men who are being
killed or crippled for life, as shown by
the recent games, that something be
done. l think it is time that fathers
who have sons in college should take
some action and compel change in the
rules of the present game, and prevent
their sons from being literally torn to
pieces in the game as 1T is played to-
day
Fine young men being put forth
against each other and throwing their
heart and soul into the game, with
nothing in their mind but to be victors
and win the game, turn our young
men almost into brutes toward each
other; and the cleVerer the boy or
young man in the game, the more dan
ger there is for him, because 1t is the
object of at least the tull team on the
opposite side to cripple him and get
him out of the game just to make their
side surer of winning and gaining the
victory. And I say it is time that the
ministers and people who have taken
such action as to set forth the brutality
which they claim is exhibited in the
glove contest should turn their atten-
tion to the brutalities of football. In
the glove contest there is only one man
against one man, and when man is
knocked out he no longer goes ahead
with the fight, but it Is stopped; while
in football have known Of cases where
a man has been laid out for fifteen or
twenty minutes and then allowed, after
slight recuperation, to go ahead with
the game--or fight.
Why is it that a young man who has
the nerve and does not want to be
termed a coward, or in school parlance
have the name of being "afraid of the
ball." should be allowed to come up af-
ter being knocked out eight or ten
times?
That is a matter which should call
every father to the front in a protest
against the present game as carried on,
in order to insure the safety of our
sons, whom we sent to college to get
an education and not to have brutes
made out of them as Is shown in nearly
every football game when the men are
lined up for a scrimmage or mass play.
