OBJECTS TO ORDINANCE

Editor Herald: VIII you kindly IN
form me through your columns what
the object is of the new ordinance
which compels the saloons and poor
rooms to keep open or glass doors IN
front of their places? l have tried IN
vain to see any good to come OF sucn
an ordinance. 1 have been dlsgusteu
many times In passing pool rooms 10
see the motley crew. of Japs ana
Mexicans wasting their time as player
or spectator, and now to have the sa-
loon exhibit men Of all descriptions
drinking-it Is something horrible! 1
object to my mother, girls, wife, daugh-
ter and son seeing these sights. Inc
saloon men have always been Wiling
and anxious to keep their business out
of sight, and why are they now com
PEELED to make such exhibitions of their
doings? 1t is a horrible example for
any child to see. If the law wants
them to have open doors, then put them
all up on the second floor, where wom-
en- and children will not be obliged TO
see such sights. If this ordinance was
passed to keep policemen out OF sa-
looms, it's a good thing, but otherwise
7 see no benefit in it to any one, and
would like it explained to me and know

of all the reform issues which are now
being advocated in this state. he ala
not wait to see whether these reforms
were going to be popular with the
people, before advocating them. he
advocated what he thought Would pe
hest for the people of his native state.
He has aroused the conseiences OF tne
people in California as no other man
ever has. He is the greatest moral
force in the state today, and his power
is being felt from one end OF TINS
state to the other. He is the man
who has made the issues of this cam
naiRn popular with the people. What
nrivate citizen knows the conditions OF
the state government of California bet

there is no man in all this great state
of California, better qualified Tor the
office of governor than Mr.. Bell. L
shall vote for him, not because he IS
a Democrat, but because l believe tnat
he is the most willing and the most
likely to carry on the best govern

will result in the greatest good TO the

FOUR FINE PRIZES

that the entire world is amazed, en-
thused. hypnotized and paralyzed by
his offer of $4,000 to any aviator who
viii fly his machine from the Atlantic

could attempt such a thing and live,
and perhaps some Of the amazement
and paralysis is over the fact that
Hearst has at last displayed what
everybody said he hadn't spark Of in
his system-humor.
But wait till the world hears of The
Herald's munihceut offers in behalf of
science. The world win have to be

OUR MILITARY WANTS

THE demand for an adequate naval
force on the Pacific coast is gath
Il ering force. Governor Gillett
intends to call a Pacific coast congress
10 give more united expression to it.
Nothing but one sentiment is heard
and it is well voiced in a few words
by Congressman Knowland:
The Pacific coast is far away
from the usual congressman from
the eastern eeaboard and the mid
die western states. They still con-
slider us a wild and woolly COM
munity They. cannot be brought
to realize that in the control OF
the Pacific lies the destiny of the
republic. Scenes have shifted with
in the last ten years, and now the
Pacific ocean Is the center of in
terest in foreign diplomacy.
The fortifcation of the Panama
canal, Of the Philippine Islands,
of Hawaii, is not enough. A great
battleship fleet, homogeneous
enough to form a formidable fight
ing unit, is a vital necessity, II
the United States is to become
factor on the Pacific ocean.
Until the completion Of the Panama
canal which will make our naval es-
taDliShment mODllG ana pTdcllCdIly
double it's size and effectiveness, At
lantic coast influences will be strong
against the Pacific agitation. The i'm
portance of New York, Boston, Wash
ington, Baltimore and other great CEN
ters Of population and trade plus the
political power Of the other coast will
be hard to overcome, but the argu-
ments given by Mr.. Knowland cannot
much longer be ignored.
A writer to The Herald also sug-
gests a military post at Los Angeles
and wants the press to take up the
matter. This is much more likely to
come about soon than the other
project. There are evidences that the
war department proposes to make a

Private and Public Banks

(St. Louis T.
Some remarks hostile to the postal
savings banks were to be expected
from the bankers gathered in Los
Angeles, but they will have no effect
on the plan The officials having the
installment of the new banks In
charge have made restrictive rules
on the theory that the scheme is new
and is to be worked out slowly and
carefully.
TIE political purpose back of the
postal savings bank scheme at present
is to use the money placed in the
banks to the limit of the law for the
Panama canal. This limit is 65 per cent
of the amount deposited. Such a per-
eentage, the law says, may be in
vested In bonds or other securities of

may direct.

army than now exists. Many of the
posts on the old frontier are no
longer needed and are. badly located
strategically.
The fortifications at Point Firmin
will have to be garrisoned. Here
also is the strategic point to control
two great transcontinental railroads.
1t would be imperative to keep them

is unlikely to overlook the great i'm

Panama canal construction has been
a great drain on the national treas
ury. Already S116,00O,000 has been ad-
vanced in the belief that 1t will be
repaid from bond issues to come. So
lere is a promise of relief for the
treasury If the postal savings banks
are literally patronized Thus the ad-
ministration hopes to find itself In
better fiscal copdition as a conse-
quence.
But the people regard these banks
as a convenience and necessity. In
dications are strong that they will be
popular. So, however much their COM
ing may Jar the equanimity OF bank
ers and however they may be juggled
for political effect, in the end they
will become Indispensable accessories
of public thrift and will be extended
and regulated accordingly.

servedly popular at this moment with
the lower classes.
The king is a boy who has succeeded
by the help of his ministers in sitting
more or less uneasily for several years
upon throne that was vacated z by
his father very hastily at the urgent
bidding of six assassins. When the
army and navy united on Tuesday to
demand that the cards be dealt over
again he assembled his official family
about him and spoke heIoically thus;
BEAT it" And they did.
The thing that annoys King Manuel
most in his present cramped quarters
is that the descendants of these per-
sons who plotted at him in the palace
will be strutting about two or three
generations hence and calling them
selves "sons and, Daughters of the
Revolution"
