FALLEN MAN GIVEN WORD
OF WARNING BY WOMAN

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 6.-[Editor
Herald: The following remarks apply
only to fallen men, so those not belong
ing to that class need take no offense,
for their toes are not stepped upon.
Neither may any fallen man don fem
mime attire and resent any objections
that may be made to the male sinner
that is, if he thinks he will deceive
any one.
The fallen man has had things laid
out Just as he wants them to be for
so many years that the mere thought
of anyone objecting to his plan of So
ciety affects him as a red flag affects
a bull-he froths at the mouth, paws
up the earth and defies everybody in
sight. He will tell you that 1t will do
no good to denounce the male sinner;
that he will keep on being sinner in
spite of you or anybody else; yet 1t
makes him furious to be denounced,
for he asserts his right to be immoral
and yet be considered respectable. For
anyone to tell him he is male beast
and not a gentleman just because he
is immoral makes him want to fight.
1t sounds revolutionary and anarch-
istic to him; and although he tells
you you will do no good by objecting,
he has a secret fear that the coming
generations of men may have their
rights questioned, and he flies into a
tearing rage.
The fallen man tells you that wemen
must be divided into two classes, one
class an abandoned and outcast class
whose mission is to see than man has
his rights along the lines of impurity
the other class must be shielded from
the world and brought up virtuously-
q pure class for the fallen men to Sc
lect their wives from, when they get
tired of helping along the institutions
~, I,s,Y, Il aa1 do oh a
(by their patronage), and decide to
marry.
The fallen man is very particular
about the kind of woman he marries
1t is hard to get one good and pure
enough for him.
The fallen man says the fallen wom-
an is a necessity to his happiness and
well being. He would not (perhaps)
lead a woman into the fallen class-he
let's the other fellow do that and is
very grateful to him for doing so, as
he can't get along without the fallen
woman. He has always been taught ia
respect a good woman" and at the
same time be thankful for the bad
ones. He tells you prostitution is a
necessity, and if you object to the in
stitution he busters, swaggers and
threatens that if you interfere with the
fallen class of women he will invade
the nure class, even if he has to use
force, Some well meaning people will
tell YOU that economic conditions cause
the fallen woman. True.
Fallen men make economic condl-
tions and economic conditions make
fallen women, so the fallen man is
grateful to economic conditions, for he
must have the fallen woman. If any
fallen man reads these lines, Hin
have T offended" AS we have previ-
ouslv been told, it will do him no good
but it will perhaps do him no harm tc
hear the truth once in a. while:

LOS ANGELES WAY

AF CONSOLIDATION it may be
said that despite the bluffing of
the buffers and the raging of the
heather, it has been accomplished in
the Los ANGELES WAY. We did not
put in" an undue amount of time in
talking about it, yet the question was
fairly, honestly, openly discussed from
every viewpoint. But the opponents Of
consolidation might have spared them
selves the trouble and expense to which
they subjected themselves To the dis
cerning it was from the first apparent
that Greater Los Angeles was as good
as what the French call fact accom-
plished," and our only concern was lest
some of our citizens might think the
result was so certain they would i'm
peril it by holidaying instead of voting.
However, the communities concerned
now all one big community-realiz
the Importance of taking a part in this
election, and as a result the cause of
Greater Los Angeles won a f1awless
victory. No man can call it in ques-
ton. It was decisive and clean. vic
tory of which our citizens may well be
proud
To take up a suggestion for an i'm
provement of conditions, to examine it
thoroughly in order to make sure it
will really be an improvement, and
then, no matter what interests may
oppose, to put it into effect-that's the
Los Angeles way; and that is one of
the reasons why Greater Los Angeles
is certain III the future to be metrop-
oils Of magnificent achievements. The
day of small things" small men. small
interests, small selfishnesses in Los
Angeles is over and gone. The people
own the greatest metropolitan expanse
in the west, where soon the present
great city will be built up to a metrop-
oils of a million, with one of the finest
and busiest harbors in this hemisphere.
The people will continue to own it.
Greater Los Angeles is peoples city,
constructed by a popular vote which
administered a crushing rebuke alike
to corporation and poodle dog politics.
We are all bigger today in the esti-

doubt the people of Greater Los An

SAYS 1T is NOT USELESS
TO APPEAL TO CONSCIENCE

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 1o.-[Editor
Herald1: Some of the writers in the
Letter Box have taken the view that
it is useless to try to appeal to the
conscience in trying to raise the moral
standard--and especially in establish
ing an equal tandard-arguing that
economic conditions cause social i'm
purity. Now, while 1 believe such
writers are sincere and honest in their
views, they should not forget that it is
Just as profitable to write letters to
the Letter Box appealing to the con-
science along the lines of morality (as
regards purity as it is to write con-
cerning prison reform, child labor, etc,
in which we are all interested. If we
are interested in the success of any
thing we begin by agitating the sub
ject, and those who have the abolish
ing of the white slave trade at heart
can do as much good by writing letters
as those interested in prison reform can
do by writing. j. w. JOHNSON.

Potash for Apple Orchards.

It would certainly pay to sow pot
ash on our apple orchards, as it is one
of the most important elements OF
plant food for the apple. Wood ashes
are excellent IL you can buy them in
the unleached form. If you buy pot
ash get 1t In the muriate form, and
apply from 200 to 800 pounds to the
acre, sown broadcast under the trees.
1t would be difficult to get on too much
wood ashes.
The mounding Of the earth around
the base of the tree will induce the
moths to deposit eggs higher up on
the trunk, and but few larvae will en-
ter the bark much below the surface
of the contact of the mound with the
tree, and they may thus be readily de-
stroyed upon the removal of the
mound after the period Of egg laying
of the moths has passed. OF much
the same order is the use of strips OF
tarred papre, newspaper, or other form
of sheathing, wrapped around the
trunk. Two or three inches of soil
are first removed from around the
base of the tree, and protector ap-
piled. The return of the earth will
hold the bottom of the sheathing in
place. and 1t is secured above with q
string or by other suitable means.

Applying Potash.

In the matter of supplying potash
to the soil economically, the charac-
ter of the soil must be taken into
consideration as well as the crop to
be grown, because it is a well estab-
lished fact that some soils never con-
tain enough potash to supply the
needs of good crops. Other soils are
able to meet the demands of some
crops, while utterly unable to supply
sufficient potash to other crops. This
is true, because experts tell us that
an average crop of cotton removes 80
pounds of potash from an acre OF soil,
while tobacco removes 200 pounds
from the same amount Of soil. II we
had no other evidence except the bare
assertion of the experts to support
this theory, then we might be justi-
fed in doubling its authenticity. But
while on most soils in the South there
Is enough potash in the soil to pro-
duce a moderate crop not by any
means a paying or remunerative one,
of cotton, we know that on the ma
jor portion of them crop OF tobacco
would be an utter failure.

Embroidery motif for linen belt, with
sketch of the finished article.

of this belt Is cool and dainty, and In
every way suited to the spring outfit
To make the belt In the sketch. cut
a piece OF linen five inches wide and
the required length, of course allow
ing extra for the pointed end. Turn
down one-half inch on each edge, and
then fold over, bringing the edges to-
gether. This makes the strip double.
Cut the point and turn the edges in
together haste all around and then
stitch near the edge. The eyelet holes
for the buckle may be neatly button
holed, or shoemaker will put in the
brass eyelets.
The linen should, of course, be
shrunk before cutting.
The design may be transferred to
the belt by means Of carbon paper
and sharp, hard pencil. The little
motifs are placed one after the other
as shown in the sketch.
1t does not take long to embroider
a belt, as 1t is done with a heavy silk
in plain satin stitch. If desired.
the design may be outlined with a
plain Kensington outline stitch, using
fine silk, but the outlining is not nee
essary.
The color scheme will naturally de-
pend on the suit with which the belt
IS to be worn. The belt in the sketch
is of ecru linen, with plain oval
brass buckle The embroidery is done
in the popular peacock colors. Tho
inside ring in the center Is Of deep.
dark blue, and the outer ring of a dark
green, though lighter value than the
blue. The inner petals Of the flower
form are of a blue about two shades
lighter than that In the center, which
would be about medium dark blue,
and the outer petals are little light
or green than that in the center. The
dots are Of the dark green.

pected to prove valuable.
 Stories of the horrible food given men at the plants; the use of black jacks in the hands of deputies and guards were heard at last nights hear ing while all of the men stated that their wages were held up and as they had no means they were prevented from leaving the shops. It was also testified that sick and discontented workmen were secreted in filthy press pits when the gover nment officials inspected the plants and the foreman and chief of the conpany's police were the chief figures in the intimidation of the workmen.
 Much evidence of the food supply was furnished when John Morris, one of the strike-breakers. fainted when placed upon the witness stand. He was attended by a physician who de- clared he was suffering from ptomaine poisoning.
 At one time a witness testified that the strike-breakers planned to start riot and fight their way to liberty. The plan was discovered by the guards and the men were lined up, guns leveled at them and the whole squad threatened with death.
