POLITICS NOW WARNING UP
Awakening Activity Among Repub'

BIG VOTE IS NOW LOOKED FOR
Both Parties Are Pulling for n Heavy
VOte-RumOrs Are Flying Thick
and Fast In Both of the
Camps.

Awakening activity among the repub-
lican candidates and their friends in
Omaha and Douglas county has put another
face on the claims OF the democratic fac
tions that they will receive a heavy per-
centage Of the republican vote in the pri-
maries. Up to the present the republican
workers and candidates have been hiding
their time, but now they are getting in
effective work.
With a big bunch Of local candidates
seeking nominations and all with friends
who are interested in their success, the re-
publican voters will not be likely to flock
in any startling numbers into the demo-
cratic scrap. If there was any decided
tendency that way just after the state con-
vention it has been overcome.
The ward and precinct clubs are now
ready to get busy and several Of these,
notably in the Fifth, the Ninth and the
Twelfth wards are holding meetings to
solldlfy the ranks and get the old wheel

for this is the fierce fight between Dahl
man and Shallenberger and between Hitch
cock and Metcalfe and the interest aroused

lative contests

Editor Herald: Reading the Letter
Box day after day and seeking to dlS-
cover the clew to the conflicting views
Of YOUR different correspondents, find
myself more and more impressed with
the feeling that they all fall within one
of two divisions-those who have i'm
plicit faith in the efficacy of law and
those who base their confidence on
changes in public opinion, in evolution,
in the development OF intelligence. In
the first class Mr.. Burroughs, who
would forbid the sale Of firearms, un-
questionably stands
There have been many portions or
Europe. Asia and Africa in which a
travellers life has been scarcely worth
a pinch of snuff, despite the fact that
the natives never saw a revolver ana
depended on their knives and other
primitive weapons. In other words II
a man wants to commit murder ana
has the necessary nerve he can do 1t
with the simplest instrument. Nothing
is more easily destroyed than human
life. the only thing that preserves our
skins being a general prejudice against
assassination.
The man who shot Mayor Gaynor
did so because his circumstances had
become desperate, and he considered
the mayor responsible for the starvt =
tion that faced him. If he could not
have got a revolver he would have
used a knife. and, failing that, stone
could have served his purpose
TO improve conditions and give in
dividual' liberty is far better than to
maintain the causes that lead to crime
and think to escape the explosion by
shutting down the safety valve.

OUR PRIVATE SCHOOLS

MUCH space in this issue of The
lN Herald is given over to an
O nouncements of private educa-
tional institutions in Southern Califor-
MIA. Their number is large and grow
ing, their high class becoming proven
bial all over the Pacific slope. In a
recent editorial on the subject Of edu-
cation in Southern California this
paper said that astonishing as has
been the growth of Los Angeles and
neighborhood in the last decade the in
stitutions of higher learning have fully
kept pace with them"
Today's edition contains the proof
that this statement is also emphatically
true of the secondary and preparatory
schools. And another virtue of the
latter is that mono of them has yet
grown to the size, as is the case with
many eastern schools, that precludes
the possibility of intimate, friendly
contact between teacher and student.
Young men and young women are bet
ter trained in such an atmosphere.
The pages of today's Herald given
up to educational matters show that
Los Angeles and environs are growing
symmetrically and healthily. The in
tellectual life is not being sacrificed
for material progress. Parents who
are interested in the subject will find
it to their profit to scan these pages
carefully.

TURN THE RAscALs oUTr

Editor Herald: Graft everywhere and
scarce a CRATER caught When Egypt
fell 2 per cent of her population owned
30 per cent of her wealth. When Baby
lon toppled into decay 2 per cent of her
population owned her whole wealth;
eighteen Romans owned her when she
fell into dsintegration. Twenty men in
our new land each could purchase an
entire state. Did they get 1T honestly?
No. They made the laws that enabled
them to coin fortunes out of the very
life blood of the people; they purchased
the press; they intimidated the pulpit;
they put their legislators into the halls
of legislation their judges on the
bench, and to make surety doubly sure,
their jurors into the box.
Why do say they did? Are they not
doing 1t? Where? Open your eyes,
sweep away the cobwebs OF partisan
ship and answer your own question.
Where are they not doing It? is a
much easier proposition.
What is the remedy? Turn the ras-
calls out, and be careful you don't turn
other rascals in to take up the work
where they laid 1t down. Sweep the
board clean. Then comes at least q
settlement time, when the people get
some of their rights. Carnegie gathered
millions from the scant earnings of the
poor and put a portion of his stealings
into libraries. Rockefeller levied tribute
on the widows oil and bribed the
church to accept the thirty pieces of
silver that should have gone to buy
the potter's field to bury the victims of
his Vaccinations, who, destroyed flnan-
cially, slew themselves, and as pensions
to their widows and children.
What then? A day of Judgment is
coming when the people will wrest the
government from the thieves and rob-
bers. M. G. McCASLIN.

FORTY-DAY FASTS

~ TUDENTS of dietetic and hygienic
matters have been interested in
~ the case OF the four religious en-
thusiasts Of Los Angeles whose ardor
led them to undertake a forty-day fast
to achieve a fancied spiritual purifica-
tion. They had almost completed the
task when the laws hand took them in
charge, but not in time to save from
death three of the quartet
Some observers of the phenomenon
have drawn from the incident the con-
days is almost inevitably fatal The
conclusion is probably wrong, because
from the time, a quarter of a century
ago, when DR.. Tanner astonished the,
world by his forty-day fast in New
York, there have been numerous feats
to match, some to excel 1t. There have
been cases of alleged sixty-day fasts
whose honesty there was no reason to
doubt. Tanner has twice repeated his
forty-day fast, we believe.
Fasting IS now widely resorted to as
remedial agent in the case Of chronic
ills, and with undoubted success in
many cases The theory is that the
human body is a wonderful self-repair-
ing machine and needs only a rest
from food poisoning to reflt itself to
normal conditions. But conservative
believers in this means of cure do not
advise resort to it without the direction
of an intelligent physician or hygienist,
for the effects are various according to
the will Of the patient.
This matter of will is highly import
ant. It is said that eleven days will
cause death from enforced starvation,
while forty will not harm many volun-
tary fasters. Endurance of any kind
is largely determined by mental atti-
tude. Hypochondriacal tendency, such
as seems to be present in the
religious fasters, is fatal because all
wrongful emotions, especially such as
hate lust, fear or doubt, set free in
the body as definitely poisonous secre-
tions as those from a serpents fangs.
Man can become Injured to great heat
or cold, to enormous potions of poison,
or to any feat of endurance by train
ing up to it. Sudden, radical change
of habits is always to be avoided. The
mind must be brought gradually, as
we'll as the body, TO any great endur-
ance test. The cases OF the four re-
ligious fasters, three of whom died,
did not measure the normal capacity
in that line because their minds were
not normal.

A NEW WITNESS

N his remarkable reply to Senator
Bristow-remarkabl because it is
Il the first time in his long public
career that he ever made a defense
Senator Aldrich said his Continental
rubber trust, being merely an import
ing concern, did not profit in any way
from the prosperity of the United States
Rubber company, the manufacturing
rubber trust. In answer to this Sam
uel M. Evans, in the Worlds Work,
says that in June, 1907, Colonel Colt,
president of the United States COM
pany, said in his annual report:
The Continental Rubber COM
pany (the Aldrich concern)
and the General Rubber company
have now agreed upon the terms
of an agreement which insures
COMPLETE HARMONY AND CO.
OPERATION HEREAFTER BE
TWEEN THE UNITED STATES
RUBBER COMPANY AND THE
CONTINENTAL RUBBER COM
PANY AND BETWEEN THOSE
CONNECTED WITH BOTH COM
PANIES.
This Colonel Colt is a personal friend
of Aldrich q resident of Rhode Island,
and is mentioned as the probable sue
cessor of the tariff builder in the SEN
ate. Some leading newspapers thought
that AIdrich' satisfactorily answered
Bristow. Mr. Taft still thinks Aldrich
made a good tariff law. What will
they think of Colts testimony?
Los Angeles herald., 1910-09-04


Inspection of the clearings of last
week show that business is more active
throughout the west than at the cast
A great reduction in tn New YORK
clearings reflects the extreme quiet IN
speculative trading, and reductions IN
such manufacturing centers as Pitts
burg and Philadelphia reflects the
oufetness in some lines of industry
which the dispatches report.
On the contrary, the west and south
generally show considerable increases
as compared with the corresponding
week of last year. the increase IN TINS
city being 30.8 per cent. SO far as the
clearings of a single week can snow
anything, they indicate that the eX-
treme west is the most prosperous part
of the country.
And that is probably the fact by
reason of the great amount of develop
ment work going on of KIND Wnlch
not only increases population, but Is
causing the introduction OF mucn new
capital. The outlook for California has
improved wonderfully within the last
few weeks by reason Of the goou
prices which have been received Tor
the commodities which we are now
shipplng, a marked advance in the
price of most of those which we snail
ship later, and especially by the great
increase in our output of mineral OIL.
These conditions on the coast and IN
the state are reflected in a general IN
