THE BEST SHOW
OF THE SEASON

That seemed to be the universal
verdict of those who entered into
the composition of the vast audience
which assembled at the Grand opera
house Saturday evening to witness
the performance known as Brew
ster's Millions" The opera house
was crowded--so crowded that even
standing room was at a premium
and it is the first show that has Wis
tied the city for some time where
it was found necessary to put out
the sign warning late comers that
there was nothing but standing
room unappropriated.
This play had oeen eagerly looked
forward to for some time by the
theatre loving public Of the capital
city. 1t had been led to expect
much and it was not disappointed
in those expectations because the
performance exceeded even the an
ticipations of the most sanguine and
they did not hesitate to say so but
pronounced it good show-the
best show of all-and everywhere
in the audience during the perform.

CITY ATTORNEY

NUY W. Eddie, who has long and
successfully served the city in the

Mr. Eddie's work and worth are well
known to all citizens of Greater Los
Angeles who take an interest in its
government. He has served the city
we'll and faithfully for five years, and in

public welfare as against private inter-

such men in office; and there is not the
slightest fear the record of such men
will ever be tainted IL the slightest de
gree by corporatonism.
Mr. Eddie has proved himself to be
friend of the people, first last and all

TEMPERANCE

N ROBABLY the most successful
friend and advocate of the tenn
E pcrance cause is the Woman s
Christian Temperance union. The
Southern California convention in Los
Angeles cheered a true keynote in ap-
plauding the speaker vino said the in
centive behind the movement repre-
sented by the w. c. T. U. is the desire
to protect the HOME and to put
cities in a position to GUARANTEE
a we'll protected and morally safe and
secure home life to all the young peo-
pie who are being Brought up in met
ropolitan centers.
This argument for temperance is un-
deniablo and irresistible. Come, now,
is it fair to our boys and girls to sub
ject them deliberately and willfully to
a temptation which could not possibly
be suggested to them unless it was di-
rectly placed in their way?
The temperance movement never will
have square deal until its general
moral benefit to our cities is recog-
nized. and until the economic improve
ment derived from tho moral benefit is
appreciated. From the economic view
point the worthy women of the W. G.
r. L. represent a cause which has for
its most strenuous and obvious advo-
cate good, old-fashioned, honest, blunt
American common sense.

PEACE

A NNUAL meeting of Southern Cal
q ifornia Peace society will be held
"A today and Peace day will be OBJ
served next Wednesday. The success
of organizations formed for the pur-
pose of advancing the cause of peace
on earth is hopeful sign of the times
Peace has been too much matter of
abstract sentiment Perhaps the ad-
vocates of permanent peace have
been too apt to forget sentiment with
out organization and well directed eff
fort will never be anything but senti-
ment.
The cause of peace must be won by
aggressive methods. A campaign of
education must be conducted. When
the campaign of education has made
the minds of the people receptive it
will be time to crystalline sentiment
and transmute public opinion into leg
islation.
With modern improvements in
deadly weapons, killing no longer is
a fine art. It is a butchery. The
rapid slaughter of cattle by most ap-
proved methods is a tame performance
when compared with the more rapid
slaughter of human beings by the most
improved methods. Since brutal butch
erv is the chief characteristic of sue
cessful modern warfare, plain language
should be used describing il.
Instead of saying: "Beluchistan has
declared war against Bulgaria" we

low human beings, the BulgarlahS'
who however, have announced they
will not submit unresistingly to the
operation, but say they will try TO
murder as many as possible of their
would-be murderers.
That method OF writing of war is
not romantic, but it is truthful.

Lion Cubs Are Being Cared for by
Dalmatian Hound in New York City

canine bones would serve to indicate
that the hound had been used as an
early breakfast.
When Jennie, a lioness, became
mother in the winter quarters of the
circus in Bridgeport. Conn, about two
months ago her health failed rapidly
and she died in ten days. 1t was then
decided to see If Queenie, the hound,
who had just lost her puppies, would
adopt the lion cubs, and she took up
the task as if they were her own.
Their health began to improve at
once. and it became evident that the
circus was not to lose one of its valu-
able assets, for lions are worth lot of
money.
She trots off in the morning to the
cage in which the cubs are kept and Is
soon on her job as the nurse. At noon
and again at night she repeats the per-
formance. As the cubs got strong
enough to stand upright Queenie tried
to get them to romp, but without sue
cess.
Now she gets an occasional little
scratch from her wards, and is getting
tired of her task. The cubs are taking
some raw meat daily, and as they Will
soon be on a regular lion diet Queenie
probably will be able to resign her posi-
ton with her skin practically intact.

CHAOTIC STREETS

CONDITION of the streets forms a
1 subject of complaints from many
y different parts of the city. Serious
inconvenience and actual damage and
business loss are being caused by the
careless habit of tearing up pavement
and leaving the thoroughfare impass-
able In West Sixth street Sunset

ment has been laid by the city people
have had to suffer from the incon-
veniences and perils of streets torn up

the railroads "manana."
The public was Just beginning to use
the streets on each side of the car
track when the railroad company pro-
ceeded to throw up dirt over the newly
made pavement, rendering it all but i'm
passable.
Having thus Handicapped the pave
ment with perilous dirt heaps, it is the
pleasant practice of the railroad COM
panies to adorn the ruins with dull red
lanterns, and having made this conces-
sion TO the public welfare. they allow
the decorated debris to remain heaped
and obstructive week after week

From Sanborn junction to the Sis
ters' hospital not single workman was
busy Yesterday, although the street for
miles was in a condition of chaotic
wreckage. and new steel was rusting
beside the tracks; while breaks in the
small portion of asphalt laid by the
railroad revealed either poor material
or defective workmanship.
Surely there is something wrong
something amiss-about a street de-
partments method of inspecting streets
when an important part of the city
government waits for action on the
part of the aggrieved public instead Of
discovering conditions from timely re-
ports submitted promptly by the paid
inspectors whose duty is to keep the
department well posted as to the condi-
ton of streets. in order the department
may force action on the part of dila-
tory or careless corporations or other
obstructionists.
Recently gas company tore up East
Santa Monica avenue and replaced the
surface in such a hurried, slipshod
fashion as to ruin the surface for sew
eral blocks. Apparently no street in
spector has made any effort to force
the company to relay the street in a
proper manner.
Public welfare demands competent
street inspection and prompt action
thereon; and the condition of the
streets is always more or less a cri-
terion of the all-around efficiency OF
city government.

PEACE AND WAR

NO PUT it mildly it is somewhat
odd the kaiser should have re-
u ferred to the colonel Of Rough
Riders, hero of san Juan hill, and for
many years commander in chief of the
army of the United States as a
"civilian.' Alongside of Theodore
Roosevelt the kaiser is a civilian of
the greenest and most untried type.
He has never smelled powder except
ing in sham fights. Not only has he
never participated i'm actual warfare,
but he has never even heard hostile
pistol fired, to say nothing of a gun.
To him war is exactly what it is TO
a majority of good civillans-a matter
of books, records, pictures, traditions
and magination-espe imagina-
tion, which in his case is stimulated
by gorgeous uniforms and glitterng
parades and noisy cannonading, all
sound and fury signifying nothing.
The glorious German peace has been
longstanding. The English speaking
nations have been engaged in real war
repeatedly while the emperor and his
staff have been playing at it. The
most military nation in the world is
the most pacific. The non-military ma
tions are never out of military trouble
for more than a few years at time.

Do progress and expansion mean the
