CHRISTIANITY is FOUNDED
ON BANKER JUDAS, G SAYS

POMONA, Aug. SO.-[Editor Herald:
Observer, in his long TRADE against
woman's suffrage lin the Letter Box
of Aug. III, says of Buchtel of Colo
rado: "Of course when a man enters
politics, be he saint, he becomes a
target for the vituperation of small
minds" If that is the rule, then it
can be used with equal force against
woman. And it Is. Now that some
women demand equality of sex, want
the loaf of bread shared equally IN
stead of. as has been. to take what
has been offered her. as were she a
beggar and menial, such women, were
they doubly saints, would become tar
gets for the vituperation of small
minds. Observer tries to prove that
woman will drag us deeper into the
mire or put on man some unbearable
shaclSle If she does, why complain
for being paid with the same coin?
Observer must concede that man in
general is so big a fool at the ballot
that it is doubtful If any woman can
be worse If one fool may vote, why
not the other? And who can Judge
who is or is not the fool? He speaks
of discord, scraps and divorces where
husband and wife hold different polit-
ical views. This may be, but it is not
a rule. Religion Is a fiercer senti-
ment, still have seen husband and
wife attend each a church and live
who go together to the same church
I have seen husbands stand outside the
other church to meet their wives as
they came out. Why not at the bal
lot?
AS for Judas Iscariot, who Observer
says would be welcomed to Denver,
would ask where Judas Is not well

AT 1T AGAIN

TNCORRIGIBLB, incastigatable. in
cautious and incorrect as usual
Il the newspaper that fought the re-
call is at it again. 1t is boosting the
Republican city convention, endeavor-
ing to create prejudice against the di-
rect method of nominations, and is
actively engaged in framing up an un-
derhanded and un-Ameriean method of
defeating the intent and purpose of
the primaries system by reactionary
rumpism.
The newspaper that fought the re-
call is reactionary by nature, habit,
repute, use and wont. 1t is opposed
to reform-because it is reform. The
word gals it. The thought of civic
betterment hurts it. Like Mephistoph-
eles, it suffers pangs Of anguish when
it beholds good deeds done or even
attempted by men. Although profess
ing Republican party principles, it did
all it could to keep in power cor
rupt and un-Democratic Democratic"
city administration, fighting the decent
Democrats of this city after they had
repudiated the faithless public servant
who was discharged from Office. 1t
did all it could to thwart the will of
the people when they nominated for
the office of mayor a distinguished war
veteran; and when with his clean and
clear record and his conscientious de-
votion to duty this war veteran made
good" his promises to give Los Angeles
an honest, business administration the
anti-recall newspaper made him the
subject of low buffoonery and witless,
vulgar cartoons.
Now this paper, undeterred by de-
feat, unabashed by failure, unmindful
of rebuke, scornful of the public, is
seeking to carry out the plunderfest
program of Walter Parker and the
Southern Pacific machine.
The latest utterance of our pro-vice,
pro- graft, anti-primaries, anti-recall,
anti-American morning contemporary
is enough to convince the people of
the true aff1liation and alliance which
are responsible for the degeneration
of its matutinal platitudes into somber
machinologues.
1t is impossible for the intelligent
people of Los Angeles not to believe
the Southern Pacific has a blacksmith
on whom it may rely at any time it
cherishes designs of welding on the
people of Los Angeles the shackles of
ignominy and machine servitude. Wal
ter Parker has a newspaper ally not
less trustworthy and true to him than
his faithful henchman, Don McGar-
win. Arcades ambo! Both tarred with
the same stick.

ASKS LETTER BOX WRITER
TO TAKE LECTURE STAND

PASADENA, Aug. 27.-[Editor Her
add: I have just finished reading the
letter by w. Scott Lewis telling of the
terrible effects of child labor, and l
feel that 1 must sit right down and
thank him for writing it, and The Her
aid for publishing it. 1t seems incred-
ible that such conditions can exist and
so few pay any attention to them.
They should be written about and
preached about until the country is
aroused to the necessity of taking
action. I think is a shame for Mr..
Lewis to confine his efforts to answer
ing questions in the Letter Box when
he is so we'll informed on this subject.
Why does he not go out lecturing? ?
Or have peoples hearts become so
hardened that they care nothing for
the suffering of the children? I thank
God there are yet few whose ears
are still capable Of hearing their cry.

NARROW ESCAPE.
The Team of Mr.. Ed ROurk Struck by

While returning home from
a fourth Of juy celebration Mr..

coming up behind them, essayed
to cross The track. The locomo-

torn from the wagon, which re.
manned stationary by the side of
the track, the occupants escap-

and Mr.. and Mrs. Rourk feel
profoundly thankful that their
ives We're spared. The train
was a special one aud Mr. Rourk
was not expecting anything on
the road at that hour.
