Tn. Best There Is.

The crop mortgage form that is be-
ing sold by The Enquirer is easily the
best that has been offered In this sec
tion. 1t is not as long a form as
some of them; but 1t Is long enough
to include ali the essential specifca-
tions of a proper contract Recording
costs from rs cents to dollar, where
the mortgage is for more than one
hundred dollars. Where 1t Is less than
a hundred dollars the indexing fee Is
only fifteen cents. To save recording
fees on mortgages of more than $100
it is practicable to draw two or more
papers for less than hundred dollars
each and have them indexed. Sample
of this crop mortgage will be mailed
TO any address on receipt Of cents.

INDIANS DISCARDING
OLD BIBLICAL NAMES

"Spokane Indians do not. like Bib
lical Names" said j. McA. Webster,
of Fort Spokane, recently.
eff you should be dropped blind
folded into the Spokane Indian reser.
walton you might easily imagine your
self in a Jewish synagogue. You hear
Moses speaking to Isaac, Reuben
whispering soft words to Judith, and
possibly Benjamin, Aaron, Levi and
Joseph in a heated controversy over
money matters.
"When | first took charge of the
Spokane and Colville agencies six
years ago / thought the Spokane In
dams a very religious lot of people
but I soon found it was in name only,
and that they were not at all salts
fed with the names.'
Almost the first day, said Captain
Webster, an Indian came to him with
an interpreter asking to have his name
changed. He had a Every bad' name
he said. His name was Benjamin
Isaac.
Hundreds of Indians have asked TO
have their names changed and today
they are "Tom, Dick and Harry;'
Biblical characters are becoming
scarce.
In the early days when the French
Catholic priests were the only white
men among the Indians in this coun-
try, the natives adopted their old
picturesque, descriptive names, like
"Good Thunder, '""Afraid of a Cow
Grain in the Face'' and so forth, or
else French names, but about 25
years ago an evangelical missionary
changed all their names and caused
all the trouble which Captain Webster
has had in furnishing common "Ameri
cam names.

SOCIALISM OR ANARCHY

Editor Herald: 1 have read the edit
orial in today's issue, "Socialism's
Gain, in which it is stated the logical
check for the Socialist growth is the
national awakening of the public con-
science as in the so-called progressive
movement in both the present political
parties. From my viewpoint the growth
of Socialism is due entirely to the ever
increasing economic condition, and it
seems but probable to me it will con-
tinue to grow and to a point where, as
a matter of necessity the private own
ership of the means of production must
give way to that of collective owner
ship. Otherwise, what is to become of
the immense surplus created every
year over and above the amount that
can be purchased back by the wages
of the producer? Let us suppose all
nations as economically productive as
the United States and that the prod
ucts amount to, say, $17,000,000 in value
for a given period of one year, while
the wages for a same period amount
to $2,0000O0. Now if there be no for
eign markets evidently we have
reached the stage of perpetual panic
and a condition where no policy save
that of collective or cooperative own
ership can avert anarchy. To those
who understand the conditions exist
ing in the world today there is no DOUBT
we are entering now this period Of
panic or depression and it is for the
humane purpose of ayerting the conse-
quences that Socialists everywhere are
organizing the working classes in the
cooperative commonwealth movement.
Were this statement not true there
would be no place and no growth for
the Socialist party. Therefore the only
logical check to the immediate growth
IL
wages and short hours in order to con-
sumo the product end employ the idle
and to permit women and children to
remain non-producers. When the pub
lie conscience awakens to the fact that
to the producer belongs the product of
his toll and that all men shall earn
their bread by the sweat of their brow
the growth of Socialism will not trou-
BILE us. II. L. STELLWAGEN.

LOS Angeles.
S. p. MACHINE NOT SMASHED

Editor Herald: I read the letter from
C. C. H, a Democrat of Pasadena,
which appeared in this mornings
paper, with great interest. L agree
with all he says. 1 don't feel at all
"sore" over the election in this state,
though, of course, 1 would have liked
it otherwise. Democrats have learned
to be good losers. Then, too, the great
victory in the east would hardly tend
to make any Democrat blue. But l
do believe that Democrats especially
Democratic newspapers and Democrats
that appear upon the public platform,
should continually hammer Demo-
cratic doctrine all along the line. I
don't see why any man, Republican or
Democrat, should wish to praise
Roosevelt, that man who plays both
sides and the middle. who campaigned
standpatters, and who advised Cali
fornia voters to support the whole Re-
publican ticket the bad as well as the
good. Much less do I see why any
Democratic newspaper should devote
editorial space to his praise or to
salve his recent wounds, when that
space could be used much better in
other ways, to my way of thinking.
Nothing could be further from the
truth than the assertion that the recent
Republican victory in this state
smashed the S. P. machine.
E. H. JOHNSON.
Los Angeles herald., 1910-11-16


In ten years the population of Los
Angeles has Increased by over two
hundred thousand. which is to the
credit of the progressive men and good
women of that city. This notable in
crease should spur to action the ctti-
zens of Denver. The population mark
for this city should be set at three hun
dred thousand.
That which has given Los Angeles its
strength is the stand together" spirit
of the community. 1t may have its
family quarrels and its local scandals
but woe betide the individual from out
side or inside who would take advan-
tage of these differences to run down
the city as a whole. federation is q
predominant characteristic of its lead
ers. The same spirit ought to prevail
in Denver, for it's population springs
from the same class of progressive, go
ahead Americans.
Courage, faith in the future of the
city, giant undertakings, have brought
the California city its present standing.
1t is not afraid to take chances. 1t has
created a great many of it's opportunt-
ties; and it has had its ups and downs.
Denver's opportunity is equal to that
of the other city. This city has an I'M
mense and varied territory to draw
upon: but first Of all 1t must continue
to prove it's pre-eminence as the metro
politan city of the Rocky Mountain re
zion. 1t must be in harmony with the
people to which 1t looks for support.
Los Angeles herald., 1910-11-16
Denver and Los Angeles
nenyer Republican,

1t must take broad ground. 1t cannot
afford to stand still. Not only must II
take advantage of its opportunities; IL
must create opportunities.
1t must continue to be the ideal resi-
denee city. 1t must be good TO i've Ia.
II must afford reasonable attraction 10
those who would come this way;
Through il all there must be spirit OF
co-operation. There must be no black .
listing. There must be q denver
spirit,' It's educational facilities must
be of the highest grade; its hotels anu
theaters must stand in the forefront
It's cleanliness, it's streets and ROAD
WAYS must be kept at high grade;
The civic center ought to be pushed 70
completion. 1t is part of Greater Len
yer.
Denver ought to be brought into CLOS
err relationship with the outside IN
terurban lines ought to be encourages.
Without it's wonderful facilities in thls
direction Los Angeles could not ooasl

thousand people. Every commercial en-,
ternrise and every individual shoulu
work together to secure more generous
treatment from the great trunk ran

Los Angeles Wonderful Growth

astoundlngly rapid development. Fine
climate and sublime scenery will not
account for it. Superior natural ad-
vantages do not tell the whole story
There is something essential above and
beyond these that has supplied the
promotive power
It's the Los Angeles spirit-that
comprehends 1t all. The work-to-geth-
er impulse, the splendid audacities of
boosting, the backing of unlimited
faith in the city by progressive works,
the extension and perfection of great
interurban trolley system, the expan-
sion of jobbing business, the estab-
lishment of manufactures, the cease
less Frank Wigginsizing of all crea-
tion-these are some of the many ele-
ments making up that virile compound
which is called "the Los Angeles spir-
it."
Just in proportion as Los Angeles
and Pasadena preserve intact that uni
fled promotive impulse, this concen-
trated essence of get-there-more-
quickly-than -place-else, just to
this degree will the gain in population
as will be shown by the 1920 census,
approximate the magnificent percent
age shown this year.

A DREAM SHATTERED

n EOPLE who have been following
the proceedings of the city plan
Il ming convention, now in session
here, noticed with interest that one of
the interesting exhibits is a model
concrete house which Thomas Fellows
has designed and erected as for use in
the model village which it is planned
to begin in Los Angeles this winter.
This house, which is made of solid
pieces, with door frames, window case
ments and all cast in one solid piece,
has four rooms-a living room, two
bedrooms, bathroom and pantry. 1t
can be built for $3.50 on level ground
and rented for $12 a month and make
a reasonable profit.
The above, it will be observed, is
written in the present tense. The
future tense, it is declared by an Asso-
ciated Press dispatch, will be taken
care of by other hands. Negotiations
are under way by interests dominated
by ]. Pierpont Morgan to assemble the
cement plants of the country into a
combination to be run after the manner
Of the steel trust-presumably a trust
with plenty Of millions of water poured
into the stock as was the case with
the steel combine.
If the workingmen are counting on
owning any $3.50 houses or on renting
them for $12 each it will behoove them
to hurry up about it, 1t is highly desir-
able from civic standpoint that COM
Portable cheap homes for Worktngmen
should be built, but from another stand
point it Is highly desirable that the
Morgan group should make dividen Is;
and what Mr.. Morgan thinks usually
goes in this country
Under competition cement has gone
down steadily in price and wonderfully
promoted construction In 1880 Port
land cement was SO a barrel. Recently
it dropped to so cents. With a Morgan
trust formed, and liberal water made
the basis Of dividends, the worlingmen
and the foolish idealists who want to
help the Workingmen with neat 500
houses viii have another think coming
AS soon as the cement trust is nicely
launched AIr Morgan will look about
and see what is the next promising
source Of tribute from the pofV'
