.SECRETARY'S SALARY
CAUSES BAD TANGLE
C0NGRESSMEN ENCOUNTER
ANOTHER OBSTACLE
Law Fixing Compensation at $4,000
Repealed, but Another Meas
ure Provides Same
Amount

WASHINGTON, Feb. 17.-While the
house was discussing the conference
report on the legislative, executive and
judicial appropriation bill today Cen
eral Keifer of Ohio discovered that,
Notwithstanding the exaction of both
houses of congress in passing a bill
repeating the law fixing the salary of
the secretary of state at 1000 a year,
the appropriation bill provides a salary
of $4,000 for that official for the next
fiscal year.
The announcement created a mild
sensation. 1t was at once suggested
that the bill should be sent back to
conference and long debate ensued
as to the proper course to be taken.
There being no dispute between the
two houses for the $4,000 salary as it
appeared on the BILL parliamentarians
claimed that neither the house nor the
conferees can amend the provision. and
the resolution may have to be effected
by another joint resolution.
Further consideration of the confer
ence report on the appropriation bill
was finally postponed until tomorrow
by a vote of 139 to Ill.
Mr.. Tawney introduced a resolution
authorizing the conferees on the bill
to treat the item appropriating $12,0 900
as the salary of the secretary Of state
for the next year as if the conference
report had not been made and the
item was still in disagreement.
The program is to have the commit
tee on rules report the resolution to-
morrow. 1t is believed it will pass.
thus clearing the wa Y for further
amendment of the bill in conference
so as to reduce the salary to $4,000.
which would bring the appropriation
in conformity with the bill repeating
the law which increased the salary to
$12, 200.

CRITICISMS

ing - TiIIman Agrees
with Hale

WASHINGTON, Feb. 17.-Discussing
the action of the senate in restoring the
marine corps to the battleships in COLI
nectiOn with the naval appropriation
bill, Senator CumminS of Iowa today
in a vigorous defense of President
Roosevelt, declared that the provisions
would be accepted as a rebuke to the
president
Senator Hale denied the right Of any
senator to declare that the purpose Of
legislation passed here is to assault the
chief executive.
He said congress simply exercised it's
natural control, certainly equal to the
control of the president over the navy
department.
Mr.. Cummins replied he had only
called attention to invasion by congress
upon the prerogative, power and priv
ileges of the commander in chief Of the
army and navy.
THE people of the country I come
FROM" he said, ARE free from the at
mosphere which reeks with criticism Of
the president"
| Senator Tillman sustained Mr.. Hale's
attitude, and added:
This thing was fought out 200 years
| ago, and Charles 1 lost his head for
cOntending for just what the senator
from Iowa contends for"
| Senator Borah opposed the marine
corps provision.
! BY a vote of 81 to IL the senate
! adopted the amendment restoring the
marine corps to the ships of the navy.

TENSION

NV HIS is a plea for the relaxation OF
the nervous tension which is in
- terfering with the health and
happiness of our people. An eastern
woman who was on a Los Angeles
street car yesterday said to her neigh
bor: "Of all places in the world, Los
Angeles is the last where one would
expect to find the disease which, in its
metropolitan manifestation, has been
named Newyorkitis. But you people
here have Los-Angelitis, and it is alb
surd and out of place, and must be
mischief making. If you doubt this
take a look at the people on this car
and at those we are passing and meet
ing on the street"
She was right. Nearly every face
showed tension-in some cases appar-
emily amounting to agony. Boys rode
bicycles with their heads bent down
and their shoulders bumped. Their
teeth were set, and their faces wore
looks of grim determination. Drivers
of automobiles had their faces screwed
up into knots. People who were walk
ing tramped along desperately, exhib-
iting signs of impatience if theil
progress was blocked for few sec
onds. And when the car, being ahead
of schedule time, slowed up in order
to readjust this little matter, passen-
gers began to ask each other What. is
the matter with this car, anyway" and
to say angrily and impatiently and
with every mark of great nervous anx-
iety, "Well never get there at this
rate. Why don't this car hurry up,
WE'LL BE LATE"

with indeterminate sentences, the tax
alton of large incomes to provide means
for the assistance of immigration. a
poll tax for the benefit of the public
schools, the repeal of the leper segre-
cation law and the enactment Of a
substitute less harsh than the present
act, making treatment the prime object
of segregation.
Legislation for the study and treat

BEWARE OF FAKES

LII reputable men engaged in the
~ mining industry in Los Angeles
AA are anxious, for the sake of the
legitimate business of mining, that ali
fake" promoters and engineers of
spurious deals, which necessitate the
investment Of a little ready money by
a victim, should be ended. They there
fore rejoice that some typical promot-
ers of the fyby-night order are in the
clutches of the law. Generally when
an investor, finds he is stung Ito use
the popular word) he experiences total
ly unnecessary modification. He is
afraid ne will be jeered at or called
Mr.. Easymark. So he refrains from
proceeding against the smooth operator
who has pillaged him, and the smooth
operator straightway proceeds to hunt
another victim; and we regret to be
forced to believe, generally finds him.
Beware Of the man who is anxious to
put you in the way Of getting some
thing for nothing. Beware of the man
who owns mining property worth a
million dollars, but needs a few hun
dred wherewith to develop it, in re-
turn for which few hundred he will
give you a half interest in his million
dollar property. 1t may be bad form
to look a gift horse in the mouth, but
when a nag is offered to you dirt cheap
it is good policy to find out whether the
man who is selling it to you has stolen
it. Fake" mining promoters, schemers
and adventures are no better than
horse thieves.

WORK AND VOTE

4 T an enthusiastic meeting last
IN evening George Alexander was
"A chosen as the candidate of the
people in the mayoralty campaign.
He will be placed in nomination for
mally by petition. He will be elected
by an overwhelming majority All the
good citizens of Los Angeles are with
him solidly. But we take this oppor-
tunity of laying emphasis on the fact
that overconidence has marred the
success of many good cause.
Be sure you are right, THEN GO
AHEAD. Don't stand still and think
about it and pat yourself on the back
and tell yourself how fine it is to be
right. 1t is splendid to be on the right
side. but the most enthusiastic citizen
who believes in the cause of righteous
ness and good government will not be
of any use or benefit to the cause if he
does not work and Vote Make up your
mind to vote THURSDAY, MARCH
%, is the date set for the election Of
George Alexander as mayor of Los
Angeles.
Although he will certainly. receive a
majority of the votes cast. let your
vote be one Of that majority. Don't
subject yourself to the modification
of having to tell your friends: Eyes, l

and I am glad Mr. Alexander was
elected. But 1 did not vote for him."
1t is the duty of every citizen to work
for the success of Mr.. Alexander. 1t
is the duty of every citizen to vote for
Mr.. Alexander. And when Mr.. Alex
ander is elected mayor it will be the
duty of every citizen to support his
administration and to help him in the
difficult task he will undertake, sue
cessfully. Remember, he will go into
office as the peoples defender, not
merely against vicious influences, but
against grating, boodling, cOzening
and careless expenditure-or worse
of vast sums of money voted for great
public undertakings. The question of
consolidation, which is now fairly
within the realm of practical politics,
will also contribute to the unusual and
extraordinary Importance of the Alex
ander administration and the respon-
sibility of the citys chief executive.

CONSOLIDATION

OINCE Governor Gillett has said he
~ will sign the consolidation bill
when it is brought before him. Mr..
McCartney's request to have it consid-
cred by the senate without delay might
well have been granted. Delay is in
the nature of obstruction, and as it
viii accomplish no good results for the
corporations or the enemies of con-
solIdation it is only mischief making
and on par with Harpers curious
conduct There is no necessity for
wasting time
The people are expecting a clean.
sane, healthy consolidation measure.
without corporation amendments and
without any quaint alterations or in
terpolations of the kind called '.jokers. -
The fight for consolidation is practic-
ally won, but it won't be over until the
governors signature is affixed to the
act which will enable the proceedings
necessary to consolidation to be car
ried out successfully The people Of
Los Angeles must be constantly vigi-
liant. The enemy is always wide

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE

N EPORTS presented at the twenty
tx first annual meeting of the Los
~ Angeles Chamber of Commerce
yesterday showed the organization is
the LARGEST AND STRONGEST OF
IT'S KIND IN THE WORLD. The
membership has been increased stead
lily, and the financial condition of the
Chamber of Commerce is better than
at any previous time in its history.
People of Los Angeles regard the
Chamber of Commerce as their repre-
sentative business body, and its reso-
lutions as to matters of public inter
est have great weight. Members of
the Chamber of Commerce should,
and no doubt will, do all in their
power to assist in the establish
ment on a firm and independent fouh-
dation and the development along
great commercial lines of GREATER
LOS ANGELES. the seaport of which
is San Pedro.
If the past history of this city has
been remarkable. high indeed are the
hopes and expectations that may be
entertained as to the future, when,
greatly strengthened in national i'm
portance by it's seaport and with it's
opportunities added to and its scope
of activity and expansion enlarged, Los
Angeles will move forward steadily
and surely to it's place among the
great municipalities and will become
the principal city Of the far West.

Iation in Congress-Bill

WASHINGTON, Feb. 17.-Liquor
legislation was the subject of cons1d-
Grafton in the house late today.

bona fide consignees and unless the
package is labeled plainly with the
name of the consignee and the exact
character of the contents is shown.
The amendment prohibits shipments
of liquor G. O. d.
Mr.. Bartholdt Of Missouri sought
