Men Must Be Appealed to on Moral

About Reforms, Says

seems to have one eye squinted up
ward and the other downward to the
very devil himself. He smiles his
broad smile and proclaims himself in
favor of so many good things accord
ing to his ideas, but to cure an evil
radical reforms must be made
These were the expressions of Thorn
as e. Parish yesterday at the luncheon
of the Jefferson club at the Hollen-
beck hotel His subject was THE
Corruptive Influence of the Protective
Tariff
Under the protective tariff the steel
trusts have become the heroes of good
stealing" said Mr.. Parish. 1T is we'll
known that political corruption enters
congress and the world of commerce
through the instrumentality of high
tariff.
"Webster was opposed to it and was
an emphatic free trader. In 1856 when
Fremont was running, the cry of free
tariff was made. When the Repub-
licans raised the tariff the best they
ever did about it was to reduce 1t a
little before the civil war, but when
that conflict came upon us the tariff
was doubled and the steel industries
feathered their nests in pretending to
fill contracts for the government. All
along the line the Democrats had been
fighting the high tariff until CleVe-
lands administration. Then came the
Mckinley tariff bill, when wool men
and others of that class were especial
ly favored. Later came the Wilson
bill. which was much doctored up, but
somewhat of an improvement over the
preceding bill
1T is advocated for young men to
go out on the farms to relieve the
distressing condition of the meat trust
What can they do, with all kinds of
farm machinery in the hands of the
trusts, and therefore beyond their
reach? Then comes the Gates barbed
wire trust to interfere. In Canada the
wire is one-half the price it is in the
United States. 1t is evident that the
steel trusts can protect themselves
over all.
LET us appeal to men on moral
grounds and reform the tariff.

NEGRO EVOLVES NEW
SYSTEM OF BLACKMAIL
Urges Woman to Be introduced to
Man Presumably for Purpose of
Extorting Money from Her

A new system of blackmail was re-
vealed yesterday morning when Mrs.
lea Scott, an employe of surgical sup
ply house, appeared at the central po-
lice station and asked Deputy District
Attorney Arthur Keetch for a COM
plant against William Johnson, a ne
gro, who, she declares, followed her
number Of blocks and made improper
proposals to her.
According 10 the story of Mrs. Scott
to the prosecutor, she left the office
where she is employed to go to Fifty
fourth and Figueroa streets to collect a
bill. While on her way to catch %
street car the negro saw her and board
ed the same car.
When Mrs. Scott alighted the negro
also got off the car, walked toward
her and asked her if her name was not
Scott. She replied that it was, and the
negro then stated that he had been sent
by a man from the Alexandria hotel
and the latter was anxious to meet her.
Mrs. Scott was indignant. The intrud-

They pay their brewery license, of
course, but at the same time their
wagons are going about the city doing
a wholesale business. If we had had
such license it would have netted the
city $24,240 last year.
IF they are going to do wholesale
business they must pay for the privi-
lege, and we are going to see that
they do.
"a cleanup in the police department
is also necessary. The men on the
police force will have to learn that they
are the servants of the people, and
when they do learn that the better it
will be for the department. Every po-
liceman seems to think that he has a
right to go to a peanut stand and get
a few peanuts, or to a cigar stand and
get cigars, or to a cafe for refresh
ments, without paying for them, sim
ply because they are policemen. This
is something that will have to be
stopped, and the commission proposes
to stop it.
But in all departments of the city,
to secure the best results, we must
have men who work not alone for the
salaries they receive but because this
is Los Angeles and the city of our
homes, and when we arrive at that
point we will have an ideal municipal
government"

Acid Dyspepsia
Nervous People Are Frequent
Sufferers from Too Much
Hydrochloric Acid in
the Stomach
A Trial Package of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets Sent Free

itls oCht IfNc
"Sour stomach" or acid dyspepsia,
is a form of Indigestion in which en-
tirely too much hydrochloric acid is
secreted by the stomach. A sour taste
in the mouth is the most common
symptom of acid dyspepsia; and the
saliva, which is normally alkaline, is
found, when tested, to be changed to
acid, or just the opposite of what it
should be, and is a state of the secre-
ton which causes rapid and extensive
destruction of the teeth.
Everything eaten turns more or less
sour in the stomach, but sweets and
acid fruits are far worse in this re-
spect than other foods. If the eructa-
tion of liquids from the stomach oc-
ours, they have such an extremely
sour taste as to set the teeth on edge.
Hydrochloric acid is an important
constituent in the gastric juice, but
when too much of it is secreted, it does
positive harm to the mucous lining OF
the stomach; and when acid dyspepsia
is long continued it often sets up
chronic gastritis, gastric ulcer and
other serious diseases. The premature
loss of all the teeth has been caused
by acid saliva, which was dependent
upon the excessively acid condition OF
the stomach.
STUART'S DYSPEPSIA TABLETS,
besides furnishing pure, aseptic pepsin
to the stomach to dilute the excess of
hydrochlorie acid, and to digest pro-
teids and albuminous foods very thor
oughly, also contain bismuth subni-
trate and calcium carbonate, which are
antagonistic to the acid, and therefore
neutralize the effect of the excessive
amount of acid in the stomach, and
the continued use of these tablets will
change the perverted condition of the
secretions to a normal state.
If you are suffering from ''hyper-
chlor-hydria," as physicians term it,
or in other words acid dyspepsia, and
experience a sour taste in the mouth,
with acid eructations or heartburn, be-
gin at once the use of Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets, using one or two after
each meal, or as may be required, and
the same quantity at retiring time, for
if the trouble is allowed to run on it
may cause serious organic changes in
the stomach. There are cases on rec
ord where the lining of the stomach
has been completely eaten away
through perverted action of the secre-
tions.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have been
tried in all forms of indigestion and
dyspepsia with unfailing success, so
that no matter which form you may
be suffering from, the quickest way to
bring about a cure is through the use
Of these powerful stomach tablets.
Secure from your druggist a fifty
cent box and get cured of acid dys-
pepsia, or whatever form of indiges-
tion you may be suffering. Also send

.TOPHAM WOULD
TAX BREWERIES
WHOLESALE LICENSE NEEDED,
SAYS COMMISSIONER
CITY LOSES LARGE SUM ANNU-
ALLY WITHOUT MEASURE
Speaker at City Club Luncheon AdVo=
Gates Plan by Which Large
Sum Would Be Made
Available

A wholesale license for brewerles was
the plan suggested by John Topham,
police commissioner, in an address he
made yesterday before the City club
at it's regular weekly luncheon at
Levy's cafe.
Last year we lost $4,000 because
we did not have such a license" said
Mr.. Topham. IF the breweries have
a right to do a wholesale business we
have a right to demand they shall pay
for the privilege, and we will see that
they do"
Mr.. Topham referred to the business
done by the breWeries in selling beer
direct to the homes.
Problems the police commission has
met in its efforts to clean up the city
was Commissioner Topham's subject
and he spoke in plain terms. He did
not hesitate to give the names of
prominent people who had tried to
stand between the police commission
and the liquor interests.
Before I tell you about what we
have tried to do, perhaps I had better
tell you who I am" said Mr.. Topham.
q was amused to read in morning
paper the other day that I was a
Methodist and had occasionally ex-
pressed myself on the street. That is
true, I make no apology for having
preached on the street, and will do so
again when occasion demands it.
Tells of Conditions
"You know the condition in which
we found affairs when we took hold
of the police department nine months
ago. We found the liquor interests
well intrenched in the city's politics.
The saloon has always been at the
bottom of political corruption, and If
we want to clean UP our city we must
use our best endeavors to get the sa-
loon out of politics, If Los Angeles
is ever to be a center of civic right
eousness the saloon has got to go.
'The breweries have been chiefly re-
sponsible for this condition. When we
made our investigation we found %
per cent of the saloons in Los Angeles
owned or controlled by one brewery
alone, and l do not believe there are
seventy-liVe saloons in this city today
that are Independent. Not only did the
breweries control them in business, but
in politics. A brewery agent would go
to a saloon man and demand that he
dig up $25 for political purposes. When
the saloon man asked what it was to be
used for he was told it was none Of his
business, but to dig up and he has
been digging up for years.
ISut luW VIC Niil loOh lOF a CndnBe.
We are going to govern the saloons
ourselves, and not let the saloons gov
ern this city. We intend to see that
they obey the laws, and we intend to
have a police department that will
see that the laws are obeyed or we will
get a new police department.

SPORTING COMMENT.
BY J. ED GRILLo.

If Jim McAleer has been fortunate
enough to pick up the making of a soot
first baseman in young Henry he viii
have done much for his team.
1t is, of course, natural that the ian:
should enthuse when a youngster doe:
anything out of the ordinary. but Eenr.
has far from proven that he is the mar
to take Unglaub's place. 1t will take
more than a game or two to show tina
the Amherst boy is ripe for big league
base ball, and yet there is no denying the
fact that Henry is a most impressive
looking youth in action. He is fast on MS
feet, hustles all the time and his genera
demeanor is that of lad who thinks
more than he talks.
There is certainly much more satisfac'
ton in developing player like Henry
than in taking some CASTOR from some
other team. That is where the Washing
ton club has been lacking. 1t has never
taken the time to develop material. bu
has tried to make a winner out OF player:
that it's rivals were willing to let go
This system has not proven satisfactory
and the new one instituted calls fol
youngsters who, while they may not bt
able to make good from the outset, vii
=
will have an incentive to give the team
their best efforts.
Though Henry came here AS catcher
he has not been at the game long enough
to be settled in any one position First
base is new to him, but ne shows an in
clination to learn it very rapidly, and il
he can make good with the stick he viii
prove a splendid man for the team. He
is worth giving thorough trial HI
certainly cannot do worse than Unglaut
has this season, and the only way to ge
line on his ability is to give him q
chance to play.
Pittsburg cannot be figured out of the
National League race as yet. The Pirate:
seem to have struck their stride, anC
Giants make them look like the team
which won so easily last year.
The return of Jack Flynn to the Pirates
lineup is sure to make big difference ir
operation, was until that time the most
timely hitter on the team, and now tina,
he is in good physical trim he will be
much more valuable to the Pirates than
heretofore.
berth at the head Of the second divi-
sion is by no means out of the reach
of the Nationals. When the fact is taken
under consideration that, excepting the
four games played with ST. Louis here
iSSeutiS. the local team ildS DSen SldCheU
up against first division teams for nearly
a month it be seen that when II
goes against the weaker western teams
it should improve its position materially.
Furthermore the margin which separates

ninth inning.
In order that he might capture yeSter
days game from Cornell Manager La
CAR sent in his star twirler, Charlie
Becker, southpaw. Although Becker's
control was almost perfect and his shoots
and curves were working finely. things
broke bad against the tall fellow. When
a ball was hit In the infeld that ought
| to be an easy out the fielder wasn't there
to receive it, One miserable error behind
him allowed the winning run. His deliv
cry was touched up for eight bingles.
Buscher. who has just returned from
Danville in the Virginia State League, OPP
posed Becker and the highlander had
the luck and timely swats with him

liant piece of work Buscher did during
the nine innings was in the ninth After
the first two men up had singled, he

game in the sixth. when Dutch HeSsler
