THE FUTURE AMERICAN

4 CCORDING to the report of the
q Los Angeles housing commission
"a there are forty nationalities rep
resented in the population of the city,
as follows: African, American. Arabi-
an, Armenian, Austrian, Bohemian
Chinese, Danish, English, Finlanders,
French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hin
du, Hungarian, Irish, Indian. Italian,
Japanese, Mexican, Montenegrin, Nor
wegian, Persian, Polish, Russian,
Scotch, Spanish, Syrian, Abyssinians,
Danes, Dutch, Cubans, Canadians
Filipinos. Turks. Belgians, Portuguese
and Koreans.
We are sometimes prone to think of
Los Angeles as quite distinctively an
American city" as distinguished from
most of the eastern centers of pop
ulation along the other seaboard. and
it is true that our population is COM
posed for the most part of what is
popularly known as American stock
Though there is now little left in it's
purity), with the exception of a gener-
Gus number of Japanese and Mexicans,
who keep pretty much to themselves.
But this report of the housing COM
mission, which will surprise many
people, shows that we are becoming
cosmopolitan as other large commu-
mites, and that these polyglot num-
bers will gradually be absorbed into
the native stock and out of them will
come the future American. 1t may
not come about soon, but it will
eventually, and what will be the result 4?
The Anglo German stock will largely
predominate for long time to come
It's characteristics are stamina thrift,
enterprise, vigorous mentality and good
physical makeup. Some day the south
ern Latin, the Syrian, the Russian and
even the Hindu and Mongolian blood,
as improbable as it seems now, will
merge itself with that now predomi-
nant and there is interesting food for
thought in the probable result on the
later American mixture.
The intermarriage that has taken
place in this country, plus the influence
of our climatic conditions, has on the
whole been productive of virility and
success. Whether the greater inter-
mixture will improve or injure the
stock only the future can decide al
though we may hold varied opinions
in the matter.

Public Letter Box
BEAM IN EAGLES EYE;
MOTE IN THAT OF LION

Editor Herald: Believing with Bobbie
Burns that il is good upon occasion to
see ourselves as others see us, l clip
the attached from London paper for
the benefit of your readers, just as l
sometimes perform like service for
English readers when American critl-
cism is apt:
Mr.. Roosevelts Guildhall speech has
been followed in a few weeks by an
outbreak of savage fury against ne
groes in the United States. The defeat
of Jeffries by Johnson has infuriated
the American whites, with tine result
that negroes are being hunted like wild
beasts in all parts of the Union. 1t is
stated that seventeen negroes have
been killed. A white man cut the throat
of a negro in a street car. a negro was
nearly hanged on a lamppost in the
city of New York In these circum-
stances, we may be permitted TO quote
the words addressed to the British peo-
pie by Mr.. Roosevelt:
ut is your first duty to keep order,
and above all things also to punish
murder and TO bring to justice all who
directly or indirectly incite others to
commit murder or Condone the crime
when it is committed When a people
treats assassination as the corner stone
of self government, ii forfeits all right
to be treated as worthy of self-govern-
ment.'
Mr.. Roosevelt may be able to realize
the character of his indscretiCn, now
that the cap he placed on our head is
on his own. 1t would be interesting to
know what would happen If British
statesman, holding a place in the af-
fections of the British people like that
which Mr. Roosevelt holds in the affec-
tions of the American people, were to
make a speech today in New York like
the speech made by Mr.. Roosevelt at
the Guildhall. Would he be heard in
silence? Would he be defended by
American statesmen? Would his life
be safe?
I'VE do not wish to rub in the neral
of the anti-negro riots, but we do feel
that Mr.. Roosevelt's complacency must
be somewhat shaken if he applies his
criticisms of our rule in Egypt to his
own country. He has to tackle a fairly
ponderous beam in the eye of the
American Eagle, and we imagine that
he is sorry he meddled with the mote in
the eye Of the British Lion For our
part, we are not disposed to pose as
unctuous pharisees in this matter. Ma
tions are pretty much alike in saw
agery and racial barbarism, and we do
not plume ourselves on being better
than our neighbOrs, But it does seem
a pitv that in sport Americans do not
cultivate the art of losing with dignity
and in politics that of mindlng their
own business VAL S1ONE'

methods which those masters of Wall
street finance know so we'll how to use.
Thus tie game is played year in and
year out, and has been played for
the past fifty years, and will continue
t. be played until the government takes
hold of the matter as it was proposed
it should do by those sections of the
railroad bill that We're rejected by the
servants of the railroad Kings in the
senate, chief of whom is Mr.. Aldrich.
When, however, congress shall, as it
no doubt shortly will, require a care

properties of the country, and then
take steps to prevent these properties
ever being again burdened by any issue
of stock or bonds which do not repre-

its end. Then, and not before.

Washington with the usual flourish.
Such things are getting to be twice.
told tales to the people, and nobody
is now found who is sanguine enough
to expect anything from them. The
department of justice has a way of
proceeding that is in marked contrast
to its way of arTiVing-or failing to ar
rive.
Probably no city in the country has
so great an interest in the new bath
tub trust (Which is master of all san
itary appliances made of iron and
enameD as Los Angeles, for the reason
that in no other city is so great an
amount of building being done per cap

sham's play is made to such as are
erecting new homes in this town.
The pinch of the trust has not yet
reached this coast in it's full force; but
neither has the conviction that the de-
partment of justice will accomplish
much by its flourish in the face of this

ion is that the administration will be
satisfied to get an immunity bath from
the public, but as the frame of mind
Of that same public has been made
somewhat cynical by paucity of legal
results, the applause will be withheld
for the outcome.
