! trict attorney. He knew Fredericks
and trusted him as a man and an Of
floer, but he had not employed him
privately He swears:
mo agreement was entered into with
Fredericks about his employment as an
attorney in any civil suit at that time.'@
Before he filed a contest to the two
Wills, FredericlSs knew that at least
one was forgery. Experts had SO adj
vised him. And in the face of all the
knowledge, on Oct, 3 he wrote Gales
the letter the Express yesterday pub
lished In fac similie, which directly
oontroverts Frederieks own statement
that the case had been brought to him
originally as a private attorney. The
letter asked Gales to meet him on Oct.
10 ITO make some arrangement in re-
gard to fees, expenses, etc" Gales met
Fredericks Oct. 10 and on that day
signed the contract whereby Fredericks
and his associates got half the estate.
Gales swears:
John d. Fredericks knew that the
codicils to the first will were forgeries,
and that the last will was an entire
forgery long before the contests In the
case and long before he ever induced
us to enter into any contract for 80
per cent of the shares of Mrs. Volkmor
and Mrs. Gales; and his statement that
civil suit was entered upon before he
became aware of the forgeries, Is ut
terly and entirely false"
You have read what Fredericks
states. You have read Gales sworn
statements.
If Fredericks acted dishonorably as
an attorney and faithlessly as pub
lie officer 1t is your duty to vote
against him.
The question is one of veracity. In
determining what credit is to be at
tached to the statements made by
F'redericks in his defense, you are
warranted in taking into consideration
his attitude in the graft cases that
grew out of the redlight scandal. II
his management of these cases re-
vealed a lack of moral balance, you
are entitled to take that fact into con-
slderation i'll determining what weight
to attach to his testimony In the forged
will case And you are privileged to
consider the great personal interests
he has at stake in this controversy, to-
gether with the utter lack on John
Gales part OF any motive for per-
jury.
And you will render your verdict by
your votes on election day, not as you
like or dislike John d. Fredericks, but
on your consciences as voters in the
county of Los Angeles.

The Sabbath Question

thus claims as his own. Probably the
best test of true love of liberty in any
country is the way in which minorl-
ties are treated in that country. Not
only should there be complete liberty
in matters of religion and opinion, but
complete liberty for each man to lead
his life as he desires, provided only
that in SO doing he does not wrong
his neighbor."
Thomas Jefferson long before had
declared for equal and exact Justice
to all men, of whatever state or per-
suasion, religious or political" He in
corporated the idea into the Declara-
tion of Independence in these words:
1--WE hold these truths to be self
evident that all men are created equal;
that they are endowed by their Crea-
tor with certain unalienable rights;
that among these are life. liberty and
the pursuit of happiness" The prin-
ciple was again enunciated in the
Constitution of the United States,
which prohibits the establishment of
a state religion or the hindrance OF
the free exercise of religious convic-
tion. Recognizing the eternal justice of
these principles, the Constitution of
the state of California declares: "The
free exercise and enjoyment of re-
ligious profession and worship, without
discrimination or preference shall for
ever be allowed In this state"
Yet DR.. Locke announces for next
Sunday night sermon on why Cali
fornia Should Have a Sunday Law"
Is 1t not time that attention was called
to the fundamental laws of the land,
framed In harmony with the Word of
God, which should serve as a perma-
nent barrier to religious legislation or
civil recognition of religious cere-
monials? While the constitution of the
state and nation remain as at pres
ent, no Sunday law legally could be
enacted. No amendment of the Con-
stitution would be possible without the
abandonment of the Just ground on
which tho republic was founded, that
of strict equality among men and
freedom of conscience as at the be-
ginning of creation.

NO SECRETS

T THE meeting held in the council
IA chamber on Thursday evening
IA to discuss the subject of aqueduct
electrical power it was suggested by
representatives of the private power
corporations that the matter be taken
up in committee. The mayor objected
to this.
I'VE are not going behind closed
doors with representatives of the power
companies and have it said that we
fixed UP some DEAL" said the mayor.
1--WE want you TO present what you
have to offer right here in the open
meeting, where it can be considered by
the people"
This is the keynote of the Good
Government administration, fact
proved by the manner in which the
settlement Of the big questions now
impending have been taken up. The
old New England "town meeting idea
has a good deal to recommend it, when
it is applicable to large cities; and
that It is applicable sometimes is
proved by the present instance. The
day of secrecy in city affairs $ past
until such time as the people go to
sleep and let that kind into power
again,
Governor Hughes of New York abol-
ished the inner chamber conferences.
Mayor Alexander has no use for pri-
vate arrangements of public matters.

Of meeting Walter Parker in an inside
office or quietly putting his brother on

The reporter was a mere youth; but,

arrived at with a neighboring power.
Then, satisfied that he had done his

Editor Herald: DR.. Charles Edward
Locke, by his sermon favoring the
closing of the postoffice on Sunday,
reopens the question of Sunday sa-
credness. In fairness to those who
observe another day as the weekly
day of rest, and in consideration OF
those who recognize no sabbath, The
Herald, with it's accustomed FAIRNESS,
may permit the presentation of some
reasons why every man should be lett
to choose for himself.
Traced to the ultimate, all these pro-
positions for Sunday rest are religious
in character. By what authority
does DR.. Locke or anyone else seek
to fasten the shacllles of his own su-
perstition upon others by government
al action or civil law? God, in His
wisdom, while giving to mankind His
law, left human beings free to obey
or to disobey his mandates otherwise
He would have taken away mans
free moral agency and obedience would
hove been mechanical. In that event,
no one could be held morally respon-
sible for his actions.
This primeval right of choice in
matters of conscience was recognized
from the foundation of the world by
the Cheator, who reserved to HlmselI
the rewards or oDedlence anu ti9
punishments of disobedience, the obli-
cation of His creatures to conform to
His requirements. being plainly stated
and faithful warning being given of
final reckoning in case their warning
should be perverted. Is man more
lust than his maker? May any unm-
ber of men force upon others the ac-
ceptance of their own conclusions on
strictly moral isues? On what man
ner of food have DR.. Locke. or the
self-constituted members of the Ma
tional Reform Association subsisted
that they have gained the right OF
dictation?
Theodore Roosevelt, in his speech be-
fore the Sorbonne, the medieval uni
versity of Paris, on April %, said

A FINE TRIBUTE

D HE American Purity league depart
ed. leaving behind one of the fin
II est tributes to Los Angeles it has
ever had-and it has had many and va
ried kinds.
The tribute is to the effect that Los
Angeles has no open dens of vice, has
clean city government, and no need
of missionary work. Los Angeles
does not really need such crusade to
awaken it's moral conscience" said B..
S. steadwell, president of the fedora
tion, but 1 hope she will take the
burning brand in her hand and cast the
light on other cities of California, be-
cause they need it badly
We venture to say that in the entire
country there are not half dozen
large cities of which all this can be
because their politics are controlled by
interests that in some way profit from
it. This is inevitable SO long as they
are without the modern methods of in
suring democracy, such as the recall
initiative and referendum. Los An
geles is one of very few large cities
to have them.
Quite different was what the Purity
league found in San Frascisco. 1t
spoke its mind freely and stung the
Evening Post to this retort
Can the gentlemen of the 'Pur-
ity League" show that their own
social plumbing back home does
not need repair as badly as that of
San Francisco? Can they say that
they have not left moral sewers
equally as offensive, if not more so,
than that of San Francisco? Their
utterances have the tone of a di-
rect insult to the people of San
Francisco: they are insinuations
that San Franciscans are temporiz-
ing with and even encouraging vice.
This is not the way to meet the
statements of the Purity league-with
the retort discourteous. The fact is
known the world over that San Fran
cisco is one of the most vice-ridden
communities in the world; more than
that, she has gloried in it. She elect
ed a mayor whose platform was a
wide open town and who, upon his
election. announced his purpose to
make it the Paris of America. Every
body knew what that meant.
San Francisco has encouraged vice
because it seemed profitable. She
should clean up.

CENSUS PADDING

4 MISFORTUNE to every Pacific
n coast city is the revelation that
"A Tacoma and Portland were de-
tected in census padding-the former
to the astonishing extent of more than
8O,O00-for the discovery throws dis
credit on the count in other towns and
particularly in Los Angeles, which has
grown more rapidly than any rival,
and more than any other large city in
the country.
When the census Of Los Angeles is
finally announced, showing an increase
Of more than 200 per cent, it viii be
looked upon with more or less sus-
picion elsewhere unless the census de-
partment issues an explicit statement
that no taint of fraud attaches to the
result and says so emphatically. AL
ready the eastern press in commenting
on the Tacoma and Portland crooked
ness is talking in such congratulations
as "the far western cities" etc. The
impression is held that our cities are
boom crazy and in order to keep the
real estate investments coming are
willing to resort to the Tacoma
method.
The local director, Mr.. Farmer,
should demand a verifcation of his
count by the census bureau and a
certificate of character to lift the sus-
plcion from the returns. Otherwise
the announcement OF the count may be
literally sprinkled with salt by the
eastern country. We want no taint on
our reputation as the worlds fastest
growing large city.

CITY LIFE AND PRICES

Editor Herald: I read in the paper
nearly every day of this or that city
which has increased it's population any
where from 20 per cent to Is per cent.
In recent paper 1 noticed news item
referring to the census of Missouri,
showing an increase of only per cent.
The article referred to goes on to say
that this gain is entirely in cities, and
that had not the cities made the gain
the population of Missouri would have
shown q decrease. 1t seems to me that
If Missouri is not an exception, and
such a condition exists generally, the
problem of the high cost of farmers
products will be pretty well answered
in the final census returns of the entire
country. For it would seem logical to
presume that increasing the per capita
of city dwellers and decreasing the per
capita of rural life would result In a
great increase of consumption with
still greater decrease of production.
