WOMEN SHOULD NOT MARRY
UNDER LAWS MADE BY MEN

Los ANGELES, Jan. 6-[Editor
Herald: Annie Ord takes the view
that divorces should be made easier.
My idea is that more thought should
be taken before entering the married
state. Women should be more and
more reluctant to marry, and 1 am
pleased to see that the modern girl has
very little enthusiasm about getting
married. Men will have to raise their
moral standard before they appeal to
the Independent modern girl, who is
rapidly approaching the position where
she can dictate terms to the male part
of humanity. Let us educate our
daughters to avoid marriage until
women are emancipated and have
something to say about making the
laws. The man from Mars could see
at a glance at our law books that the
laws were made by men for men.
When a married man can collect his
wifes wages and spend it, when he
can sell and run through with the
community property-let girls preserve
their self respect by staying single and
managing their own affairs. There
are too many people in the world now.

BIGGEST BOOST

nUBLIC interest in Aviation week is
being increased, but public inter-
l. est must be supplemented by cash
IL the affair is to be an unqualified and
colossal success. Mayor Alexander
points out the Importance Of contrib
uting to the aviation fund. He tells
the pointed truth in his usual straight
forward manner when he says the big
aviation meeting is one of the greatest
advertisements the city Of Los Angeles
ever has had, and The Herald wishes to
echo him with emphasis when he adds:
Every one should take it upon himself
to further the meet in every possible
manner" AS the mayor points out, a
large sum of money will be needed if
this great public enterprise is to be all
we would wish it to be.
He hopes, and we hope right heartily,
there will be a liberal response by all
persons ia the city to the request OF
the committee which has been striving
faithfully and patrioucally to bring to
Los Angeles the greatest aviators IN
the world.

.MILITARISM

h --D@ELIBERATE attempt to create
n war scare is being made by
- several publications. 1t has been
found the Japanese population of Hon
olulu is increasing. The inference is
that the Hawaiian islands are to be
garrisoned with japanese who are to
be use in what is called a descent
on this coast. The white man, heavily
laden with an ever increasing burden,
is beginning to realize it might have
been better if so many years Of the
nineteenth century had net been de-
voted to militarism.
The deadly perfection which was
reached in the art Of killing at a
comparatively early period of the CEN
tury should have been enough, and it
might have been thought the imme-
diate result OF the great sectional
strife in the United States would have
been to bind the world in a perpetual
peace pact founded on justice, and to
have established courts of arbitration
and international tribunals. We need
not remind our readers that the dread
of war was SO strong after the close
of hostilities what might have been a
casus belli with another branch of the
race was disposed Of by arbitration.
But other nations did not accept the
precedent, and the continent of Europe
emphasized its rejection of the prece-
dent by plunging into war
The intensity of war-dread is greatly
added to by the unknown terrors of
perfected aviation. This is a most in
auspicious time for the attempted pro-
duction Of a war scare. 1t cannot fail
to cause nervousness, because dread Of
the unknown is the worst kind of
dread, and what may be the psyche
logical effect on the generation about
to be born, who shall say?
The aviation leaders who will be
gathered at Los Angeles could not rem
der to humanity greater service than
if they were to solemnly dedicate them
selves and their works to peace, and
were to draw un a series of resolutions,
signe by all of them, copies of which
could be forwarded to every govern
ment in the world.

DEATH IN THE POT"

II ECORDS of ptomaine poisoning,
IL like records of appendicitis, go
IL back to the earliest ages, and in
view of modern discoveries there Is
new significance in the old Biblical
saying, "There is death in the pot -
while there is room for suspicion in
nocent persons have been accused of
poisoning and have suffered the eX-
treme penalty unjustly. The new dis
coveries regarding ptomaines explain
sufficiently many poisoning myster-
les" but the old-fashioned idea was
that if anybody died from poison symp-
toms, somebody must have admins
tered the poison, and that somebody
was generally discovered" by per-
severing detectives and punished in
spite of protestations of innocence that
were repeated on the gallows or in the
electric chair.
The sacrifice of the victims Of the
Valdez feast should teach our people
that pure food laws and sanitary pre-
cautions are as important in the do
nestle kitchen as in the public fac
tory. Verify the people perish for lack
of knowledge. While there are some
subjects which it might not be expedi-
emf to place on regular school curricu
lums (already crowded. yet it would
be both expedient and advisable to
arrange for school lecturers on such
subjects, who would go from school
to school and give instruction in the
form of lucid. simple talks, illustrat-
ed by pictures, blackboard sketches,
or lantern.
The commonest subjects are the most
neglected. Familiarity with the most
intimate concerns of life seems to
breed contempt of them. Care of the
body, care of the stomach, proper diet,
exercise, etc.-all such SUBJ
jects should be taught at school. How
in the world are the children to ac-
quire knowledge concerning them if
they do not get that knowledge at |
school? Americanism, speilng, arith- |
metic, history, geography, elementary |
political science, care of the body and |
health are the subjects that should be
taught in school.
Add other subjects, if there should
be time and opportunity, but teach
hose that have been mentioned. They
are absolutely necessary to citizens
who would enjoy full measure of
life, liberty and the pursuit of happi-
ness in the United States.

More Progress

Chicago has at last succeeded in
solving it's pauper problem. 1t did not
fully realize that it had such a prob
lem until it found out that the food
supply of a large number of its esti-
mabie families came from garbage
cans.
OF course that was very bad taste,
and could not be countenanced by
any self-respecting middle western
metropolis. But what to do? The an
swer came almost in a twlinkling, a
flash of genius.
Sprinkle poison in these garbage
cans!" prescribed the doctors.
Why, of course! Simplicity itself. If
these paupers We're to be eradicated,
their food supply must be taken away.
The doctors said it was highly in
furious to the starving creatures to
eat such improper food. If allowed to
go on that way the paupers would
live forever and the problem never be
solved. The rational thing to do was
to make the food still more improper.
And it is working splendidly. Many
children have already been poisoned.
others have been arrested because they
were so hungry that they were willing
to be poisoned, and the rest can rea-
sonably be expected to die without un-
due delay. Chicago never does things
by halves.-Ellis o. Jones in Puck

UNDUE INFLUENCE

MAYOR ALEXANDER urges action
N to end the wholesale domination
AiA of saloons by the big breweries,
and says he will do everything in his
power to stop it. He adds: "There is
no reason why a brewery trust should
be permitted to seize and retain con-
troll of a large proportion Of the
saloons of the city and prey on the
individual saloonkeepers, using the un-
just profits they derive in this way in
pernicious activity"
Good government demands the
elimination of the liquor interest from
a place of undue advantage and undue
political influence in this city.
Fair play and square dealing for all
concerned suggest the hideous unfair
ness of allowing wealthy breweries to
compete with petty retailers, struggling
to make a living, and too scrupulous
or too poor to ask for or to buy the
protection of the brewers trust.
The public should support with adj
its might the police commission in the
struggle that will determine whether
the people or the breweries will con-
troll the retail liquor business of this
city. And we prophesy victory for the
people This city refuses to be owned
even in part by any interest" 1t de-
mands absolute liberty and equality of
trade and square deal for everybody.
That's the Los Angeles way.

PECULIAR
ILLNESS

When tender words of sympathy
were poured out on the floor of the
city council Tuesday night, urging
the city fathers not to remove City
Engineer j. c. Ralston at that time
because he lis very, very sick
man and may not live" the coun-
Gil was handed very neat pack
age of what the boys call bull"
At 8 o'clock Tuesday night, when
the oratory on the condition of Mr..
Ralston was at it's height, the foxy
engineer stepped into the Spokane
hotel.
There was to be a conference be-
tween some prominent business
men who have been very active in
city hall politics for the last two
years, a representative of an east
ern paving company with a low
bid in on the Brownies addition
paving and a city official. A man
had been posted at the hotel to
see what happened, and this man
is ready to make affidavit that to
the best of his knowledge and be-
lief Ralston appeared at the hotel
at that hour.
Mr.. Ralston showed up at p. M,
regardless of the serious condition
in which he had been pictured to
be in at the time. He walked into
the hotel and remained but a few
minutes and then walked out again.
Later in the evening the gentle
men who were expected to be in
the conference were seen on the
streets together. The contract for
the Brownies addition paving was
awarded the following morning,
four hours earlier than had been
announced. The conference was in
the interest of the successful
bidder
Seeing the account in an even
ing paper that Engineer Ralston
was dying of pneumonia a minis
terial friend of the ex-city engl-
neer hurried to his bedside, only
to be greeted by a smile from a
member of Mr.. Ralston's family,
with the assurance that he was not
seriously sick and that the ailment
was a heavy cold and symptoms OF
grip.
A year ago Mr. Ralston, in the
same paper, was likewise reported
seriously i'll. At the time the story
was written Ralston was at Kel-
logg, Idaho, on a trip of inspection
of some mining property.
Ralston, it was announced today,
will be out in a day or two.

MA YOR GAYNOR'S SON
DIVORCLNG HIS WIFE

At the time of his elopement
Gaynor was a student at Amherst
college and she student at the
Boston conservatory of music.
All that is needed to annul the
marriage now is the approval Of the
justice of the supreme court of New
York.
In his report Referee Ward states
that he finds that Miss Queen had a
husband living at the time she was
married to Gaynor. According to
his findings, the husbands name Is
Salvatore Guiffe, whom she wed at
Somerville, Mass, June 1, 1908.
Guiffe secured divorce from her
in Texas on the grounds Of deser-
ton. He was granted the decree in
June, 1909.
Miss Queen left the Gaynor home
several months ago, and since then
the couple have been living apart.
1t is rumOred that she departed
when she was accused of having an.
other spouse.
The young man, who is % years
old, secured work in San Francisco
and remained in the coast city until
March, when he returned to his
home in New York, accompanied by
his bride. The proceedings to annul
the marriage were started by young
Gaynor. Miss Queen is "a years old.

PAVING JOB
WILL REACH
THE COURTS

There are some peculiar things
connected with the Brownies add.
ton paving contract and a lawsuit
is probable.
Property owners interested are
going over the facts in the case
and protest will either be filed
with the city council when the as
sessment roll comes up for confir-
nation or there will be a suit filed
directly in the superior court.
The defeated Spokane bidders,
the Independent Asphalt company,
claim that they were "jobbed."
But the awarding of the contract
before they had chance to be
heard has cut them off from an ap-
peal, even to thu courts.
If a suit is now filed it will be
by one of the property owners in
terested.
