THE BATTLE
AGAINST THE SALOON,
License and No License Forces
ciashed in Many Towns
on Tuesday.

The annual spring elections were
held On Tuesday in many villages
and towns thruout the state, and. the
main issue in many places was wheth-
er liquor should be sold There are
many shiftings about from wet to dry
and vice versa, but the net result ap-
pears to be slightly favorable tor the
anti-saloon cause, especially in the
northern part of the state. Our neigh
Dor to the north, Argyle, has gone dry
for the first time in her history.
Alvarado also voted out the saloon,
Ada, Hallock, Climax, Halstad, Hen.
drum, Karistad, st. Hilaire, Mcintosh,
Twin Valley. Middle River and Men,
TOE are among the dry towns. Ro-
seau voted back the saloons by seven
majority.
The city of Warren votes on the
question next Tuesday and tho there
has been very little agitation Of the
subject here thus far, the next few
days may see considerable activity.
Carl Walden, District Superinrend-
ent of the Anti-Saloon league speaks
at the opera house tonight. The vote
in Warren on this issue has always
been very close, and it is not improb-
able. that the saloon will have to go.

RATES REFORM

n USINESS interests of Greater Los
X Angeles insistently demand rate
- regulation between the city and
its harbor at San Pedro, and nothing
less than practical reform will do. The
Herald has gone into this question
with thoroughness and has given the
facts and figures which establish
against the Southern Pacific railroad
an indisputable case of hoggery and
discrimination; as genuine rates
gouge as any with which a judicial
body has ever been called upon to
deal; and it is in a judicial and re-
formative manner the people whose in
terests are being affected will expect
the state board of railroad commits
sioners to deal with this oppressive
and unjust exaction. There is no ex-
cuse for the gouge rate between Los
Angeles and its harbor, and we can
not believe that any body of public
officials charged with the duty of pro-
tecting the public from predatory cor
porationism will delay the much
needed Intervention which is de-
manded.

ASSOCIATED PRESS

n NE of the greatest and most eff
cient factors in modern civiliza-
" tion is the Associated Press,
which more than any other agency is
making the world better acquainted
with itself, is spreading among men
a knowledge of one another, and is
accomplishing a far more for the cause
of international peace and harmony
than is the International Peace society
ITSELF laudable as the aim and excel
lent though the achievements of that
society undoubtedly are.
The great force exercised by news is
the force of suggestion. TO date the
recognized this fact is the Christian
Science newspaper, and the Scientists
are the pioneers of a form of special
editing which may have a great effect
on society in years to come, when its
philosophy will be recognized and the
value of newspapers to. the community
will be increased greatly.
The great work Of the Associated
Press has been done exactly along such
lines, although probably unconsciously.
In its widespread news service it has
become a publicity agent for various
communities, and none is under deeper
obligation to it than Los Angeles, the
name and fame of which through the
intelligent effort of highly esteemed
local representatives, of the Associated
Press have become familiar to readers
in every part of the civilized world.

ENGLISH RADICAL

or great significance is the history
of the English Radical, Sir Henry
" Norman who has been appointed
assistant postmaster general There
is all the difference in the world be-
tween a vague knowledge Of a con-
dition and a realization of 1t. Nor
mans profession Is that of a news
paper writer He was sent by an
English Tory newspaper to 'do" the
Irish evictions. He was instructed to
tell the story of how the lawless Irish
refused to pay rent and "rioted" when
officers tried to make them vacate the
premises they were occupying. Nor
man, note book in hand, found himself
in the thick of eviction scenes. One
day he saw a constable strike a woman.
Immediately the athletic young English
reporter flung down his note book and
became a frst-class rioter All his
conservatism vanished. He forgot he
was a Tory, and working for a Tory
paper. He thumped the constable, was
rushed into Jail, but was rushed out
again by the scared authorities when
they found they were merely supply
ing him with material for a great
''story." Norman has since done much
brilliant newspaper and able political
work, and he thinks 1t would be grand
IL all editorial writer's could have per-
sonal experiences of the social and
political subjects they discuss. So do

DISCIPLINE NEEDED

Some of their writer's would have been
helped if they could have overheard a
few remarks made by a lifelong
member of the Republican party few
days ago. This man would consider it
heresy of the kind the ancient &C.
clesiastics called "damnable" to sup
port or vote for any ticket but
straight Republican, yet he said:
"If I had my way I would advocate
absolute free trade for a while. I
think our nation is more in need of
that at this present time than of any
thing else. 1t would be a salutary re-
form measure. I don't believe it would
hurt the people, think a suggestion
of that kind Is fudge. 1 do believe it
would end the trusts. make trade free
internally as well as at the ports, and
would have a most salutary effect on
railway rates.
"Yes, am a Republican, but think
it is high time for little discipline,
especially as 1 believe it would help
and not hurt the cause of the wage
Garner and the working man."
Under our free and liberal system of
government no human being has any
right to be coddled at the expense of
his neighbors. The principle of square
dealing in every form of business, gov
ernmental, public and private, would
improve conditions throughout the
republic, and. as our Republican
friend limited, measure that might be
regarded by the especially privileged
and by the pampered disciplinary

OTHER MEMS INDUSTRY

II OBERT J. BURDETTE has flashed
X out a phrase which should live.
AZ Tired Of hearing the never ending
babble about Captains of Industry"
this reverend satirist has calmly given
the phrase a neat, new twist. We can
not understand how it ever passed the
blue pencil of the distinguished re-
dictionary organ of private opinion in
the columns of hich it was published
But we won't "piffie" over the source
from which we lift this Burdettism:
"A PITTSBURG CAPTAIN OF
OTHER MEMS INDUSTRY"
That's great deal better than "cap-
tain of industry" 1t is much truer
In fact, it conveys in one witty flash
an encyclopedia of information as to
the labor situation in the United
States All industry is created by
human energy-brain energy and mus
cular energy. Under the conditions
which are causing one trouble after
another, and will go right on caus-
ing trouble and more and more of it
until they are remedied, the mental
energy and the physical energy of the
overwhelming majority are used to
produce results and rewards for the
inoonsiderable minority.
Surely this is topsyturveydom, and
surely the nation is in need Of edu-
cation to bring about a correct esti-
mate of the value OF work and the
place in the community of all who do
the work of the community. DR.. Bur
dette IS familiar with the phrase "the
laborer is WORTHY Of his hire"
surely it is time for civilization to ac-
knowledge the truth of this state
ment.
