SOUTHWEST MUSEUM

TNRICHED by the eift presented
n bv Charles F. Lummis' tne
IA Southwest museum is in falr
wav of becoming the leading institu-
tlon of its kind in the west. After
the erection of the suitable building
at Sycamore grove for which provision
has been made, the museum will take
the place in public recognition to
which it is entitled. SO we'll begun is
the museum project that it is safe to
saw the $4,000 building planned will
be only the nucleus Of one OF the most
costly and magnificent structures in
the world.
The educational value of well ar
ranged and we'll stocked museum can-
not be overrated. The wonderful his
tory of the southwest, amply illus
trated by the collection to which the
I,ummis gift is a noteworthy addition,
will be demonstrated in the museum
by object lessons which win appeal
to the Imagination and stimulate the
patriotism of all beholders.

THE BALL1NGER CASE

TF the subject were not so serious
a one, involving as 1t does the
u most vital interests of the ma
tion, the efforts of those journals that
are committed to the service of those
interests that thrive by preying upon
the natural resources which are the
property of all the people, to MN
imize or excuse the revelations that
are being made in the hearing OF tne
Ballinger investigation would be high
ly amusing.
Before this hearing began these
friends and supporters Of the predatory
interests insisted that everything that
had been said in accusation of Mr..
Ballinger was utterly and purely false.
No part of the statements made by
Pinchot, CLAWS and other friends and
defenders of the peoples interest was
moro ardently attacked than was the
statement that the Guggenheims were
really behind the effort being made to
monopolize the marvellous wealth in
coal Of Alaska. This statement was
denounced as false by the Cunningham
people. who appear to have been the
leaders in the endeavor to fraudulently
secure government coal property in
alaska. But 10! while the investiga-
ton is proceeding, representatives of
the Guggenheim people under oath in
another matter before another commit
tee of congress admit that they were
interested in the Cunningham claims.
So. too, every other statement that
has been made by CLAWS. Pinchot and
other defenders of the people has, as
far as the testimony has been taken.
been sustained.
There remains no possible doubt
that Mr.. Ballinger did order fraudulent
claims to patent, and that this order
was only prevented from being car
ried into effect by the protest and
diligence of those men in the service
Of the government whose acts in de-
Tending the people cost them their po-
sitions.
There is no room left for doubt that
Mr.. Ballinger was anxious to use
every effort in his power to further
the efforts of the men whose proceed
ings have been branded as fraudulent,
to obtain the property of the govern
ment. which means tho property of all
the people, in the most marvellous de-
posits of fuel that have ever been dis
covered in the world
Mr. Ballinger's supporters, who are
his supporters because they are the
friends and supporters of the preda-
tory interests will find that something
more than mere denial and denuncia-
tion are required to convince the peo-
pie of the United States that the pres
ent secretary of the interior should
not be removed from the position which
he appears to have disgraced in his
efforts to use his authority to injure
the public and to promote the inter
ests of the public's enemies.

CHEAP HUMAN LIFE

n WING in some measure to the con-
tlnual and practically unlimited
artificial increase of population by
immigration, human life is cheaper in
the United States than in any other
! civilized country. No other civilized
power has made such a long, determ-
ined. immovable stand against many
obvious improvements that would tend
to preserve human life and promote
human happiness. 1t is now over ten
years since the president of a great
railroad company said to a newspaper
writer who was interrogating him
somewhat sharply and pressing him
very hard on this question of Ameri-
can disregard for human life:
ITO put bridges at the grade cross
ings in the way you suggest is out of
the question. Why, our road would
not pay dividends for five years. The
stockholders must be considered. Some
of them are poor widows whose source
of income would be cut off, And yir-
tuously indignant, the great railroad
president abruptly changed the sub
ject to national politics.
If the grade crossing victims who
have been murdered in the last ten
years should rise up in judgment
against this railroad president and
others like unto him. the ghostly army
of the manned and mangled would
provide realistic hell-torture far
more intolerable than mere fire and
birthstone.
Steadily the slaughter is continued,
sometimes rebuked but never forbid
den. Men. women and children are
killed at the crossings.
Mining accidents of all kinds are
also resulting constantly from the de-
termination of corporation presidents
and directors to let nothing interfere
with the earning and declaration of
dividends. Proper precaution and the
expenditure of money would have pre-
vented the Idaho disaster from taxi
ing human life. The dispatch points
distinctly to the cause of the slaugh-
tor: "Mace is situated on the creek
bed, and the mountains rise high on
either side of the canyon. The slopes

mines. The main body of the ava
lanche, which started from the top of
Custer mountain, passed beyond the
town and, striking the opposite slope
with terrific force, rushed up the
mountain side"
The risk of such an accident has
long been obvious, but it would have
cost money to protect the humble
dwellings Of the mining population.
Coming nearer home, citizens of Los
Angeles well may blush at thought of
the unnecessary death of the young
man who stopped out of a we'll lighted
room into hallway, and thence into
an elevator shaft, down which he
plunged headforemost. He thought the
elevator was waiting for him. He had
good reason for so thinking. The door
was open, and his expectant sensory
motor had not time to reverse action
and warn hil1 It was q door to death
ere he had made the fatal step.
Other accidents Of like n'ture have
happened over and over again. others |

time, anywhere in the world as long

guaranteed and assured by me-

WHO PAYS THE PIPER?

NTERO hddled while Rome was burn
III ing. In spite of the fact the lead

per has published a despairing picture
of the G. o. P. going down, Taft and
Cannon have earned new regulations

the White House, the president per-

of a fierier and more ardent tenn

his important legs loose in a brilliant

THOMAS ADDS TO END
OF WORLD CONTROVERSY

Los ANGELES. Feb. 23.-[Editor
Herald: That the tone of my letter
which seems to have aroused the sar-
castle ire Of James Il. Irwin was
rather discourteous l admit, and beg
to apologize. l did not, however, ac-
cuse any one OF attempting to gain
his point by Intentionally perverting
the meaning of the Scriptures.
Mr.. Irwin's contention was to the
effect that the lend of the world"
mentioned in Matt. "A meant the con-
summation of the Mosaic age, as
marked by the destruction of Jeru-
salem, and that consequently "all
these things" were fulfilled before the
end of that generation, putting the
usual Interpretation on the word
generation" To answer that. it is
unnecessary to go into the question
of whether or not the Bible looks to
the ultimate end of earthly things.
The disciples asked: Tell us of the
end Of the world" The answer was,
in part: This gospel must first be
preached to all nations, and then
shall the end come" Unless Mr.. Ir-
win is prepared to show that the gos-
pei was preached to all nations prior
to the end of the Mosaic age it, seems
to me that he will have to abandon
his original position. TROMAS.

mechanical device would cost a little
money, but isn't It worth while?
Mills, mines, railroads, electrical ap-
pliances, elevators and many other
concomitants of modern civilization
and factors in 1t are permitted to take
human life without let r hindrance,
because profits must be earned, safety
devices are dear. human beings are
cheap.
YOU, respected reader. may not be
as thoroughly immune from the gem
eral danger caused by parsimony and
greed as in your innocent trustful-
ness you imagine you are. over and
over again the safety and the lives
of citizens are menaced b. vagrant
electric currents astray because proper
measures for their restraint are not
taken.
In every mill and in almost every
factory machinery is menace TO
workers, because owners refuse to
spend money on safety devices. 1t
even requires constant urging, driv-
ing and pounding to make some prop
erty owners maintain the most OBJ
vious and most necessary Of all safety
devices, a thorough reliable, accessl-
BILE, trustworthy fire escape.
Why there should be such general
reluctance to take :leasures to assure
the safety of citizens is incompre-
hensible. Our theory that the con-
stant torrent of immigration into the
United States has lessened RESPONSE
bility and dulled appreciation OF the
value of precious human life may be
correct. but one would think urging
nleading. commanding and an occa-
sional horrifying object lesson would
persuade even the thriftiest capitallst
to invest the amount of money neces-
sarv to assure human safety.
Are not all precautions worth while
Is 1t not worth while TO make our en-
+ernrising civilization reasonably saIe
for the people oy surrounding with ad-
oouate devices every mechanical or
electrical contrivance used in the SER
vice of mankind?

CARE OF ANIMALS

II NASMUCH as the provision Of
drinking fountains and water
n troughs for animals in this city
is not abundant, citizens should see
to it that there is a water supply for
thirsty dogs and cats. Cats don't
drink water?" Nonsense. OF course
they drink water and lots of it, when
they have an opportunity. But Of such
opportunity they are generally de-
prived.
Freedom of perspiration through
the tongue and a plentiful supply of
water are absolutely essential to dog
health. Muzzles used should be of the
humane or nose-cage kind. The old
fashioned strap variety invites cross
ness, the dog losing control of HIM
self not because he is afraid of water
as the old superstition puts It, but
because he cannot get water.
Dogs, cats and rabbits are all sub
ject to serious disorder as a result Of
this deprivation, and a bite or a
scratch by the animal when it is in
such a condition that rabies may ex-
list, may inoculate a victim, with dis
astrous results.
Animals should not be allowed to
run at large on the streets of Los An
geles. Sometimes as a result of teas
ing. sometimes from sheer ugliness
they have been known to attack and
bite children; and the bite of an angry
brute may have terrible consequences.
One unmuzzled dog, suffering from
the disorder diagnosed as rabies, may
inocuate others, and human beings
also may be endangered. Dog own
ers are earnestly requested to see that
their animals have proper care, atten-
lion and restraint. They should be
fed and watered regularly, and the wa
ter supply should be plentiful
To deprive a dog OF water is to in
vite a rabid condition. Persons who
own animals should realize their re-
spousiDility for the care, welfare and
health Of the animals. They should
also realize their responsibility for the
safety and health Of their fellow citI-
zens

allow it to roam unmuzzled, you GER

Of the public, and especially Of boys

a little prevention IS worth a great
deal of cure, and by cooperating with
the authorities to take precautions
against danger resulting from dog
bites, all classes of The community
are helping to prevent a condition
which might result I'm peremptory or
ders for the destruction of every dog
in Los Angeles, whether licensed or
not.
