A WORLDS RECORD OF GROWTH

THE growth of the city of Los Angeles from
10000 population in 1000 to $4,000 III 1910,
an increase of 211 per cent, has been char
acterized by Mr., Durand, the supervisor OF the
census, the greatest growth ever shown by a
city of its class in the census records of the world
But this marvellous growth does not begin to tell
all of the story of what Los Angeles has done III
the past ten years. We can begin to get some idea
of it when we know that the 216,519 increase IN
population which the city has shown is the fourth
largest actual increase in number or population
shown by any city in the United States the actual
growth of Los Angeles in population only being
exceeded by the great cities of New York, Chicago
and Philadelphia, the smallest of which had in the
census of 1900 over million and quarter popu-
lation In other words, the city which began the
last decade with 100000 inhabitants has added to
its population a larger number than other cities
which at that time had more than halt million
population each, and larger number than any
other city in the United States, excepting the three
largest the smallest of which had over million
and quarter ten years ago.
There is a superstition among some OF Our east
ern friends that while the city OF Los Angeles IS
increasing largely in population, the population
consists to such an extent of pleasure seekers, in
valids, etc. that the population increase does not
mean propOrtionate increase in business.
An inspection of the records OF the three great
departments of business, the pOstott1ce, building
and banking shows that not only IS this erroneous
but that the increase III business Ill Los AngeleS
has been tremendously greater than in population,
To illustrate In the year 1901 the total amount
of postal receipts in this city in round figures
S281 ,0O0 In the year 1910 if the same ratio con-
tinues for December as has characterized the
eleven months of the year. the total postal receipts
will be 81 372, ,0O0 showing an increase for the dec
ade of the business of the United States postolce
at the rate of 490 per cent.
The total bank clearngs of the city OF Los
Angeles for the year 1900 $122,692,oo0. Should
the present month show the same ratio of clear
ings as has been shown by the first eleven months
of the year, the total cearings will be $813,l98,0oO,
or an increase for the ten years of 632 per cent
In the year 1900 the value of the building per-
nits issued in the city of Los Angeles was S2,,
$4,000 Should December show the same ratio OF
increase in building permits has been shown for
the past eleven months of the current year, the
total value of building permits for 1910 will aggre-
gate S21,o0O,OOO, showing an increase of 833 per
cent.
Thus, while the population of the city has in
creased for the past decade at the rate of I'll Per
cent the great lines of business such as the post
office, banking and building, show increases OF
from 400 per cent to 833 per cent within the ten
years.

LOS ANGELES AND AVIATION

OS ANGELES is to be congratulated upon
her prospects for a successful aviation meet
- in the early part of the coming year. 1t
would have been little short of calamity if the
city which held the original aviation meet in the
United States and made the wonderful success of
it that it did, should not have had another and
greater aviation meet for the year. The fact
that Mr.. William Garland has consented to head
the movement for bringing about the meet is in
itself guarantee of success.
With Mr. Garlands Well-knoWn energy and
ability supplemented by the efforts of the strong
men with whom he will surround himself on the
committee there should be no difficulty in securing
a fund necessary to make the meet a very pro-
nounced success. And the meet when held Should
in our opinion, be more successful from a
financial standpoint that the meet of a year
ago. While the latter accomplished the wonderful
result of taking in about $4,000, the meet to be
held during the next year should exceed this.
There is disposition in some quarters to think
that the meet may be less successful financially
because it will be less OF a novelty But it does
not follow by any means that the exhibition which
will be given will be any less a novelty than was
the meet originally held here. Our readers will
remember very we'll that during the ten days of the
last meet there were but three really dramatic Oc
currences and those were all furnished by one
aviator One was Pauhan's flight to the NOUN
tains another his flight to the and the third
and greatest his record breaking high flight. Bar
ring these three occurrences, the people day after
day went to the meet for the purpose of seeing one
or two machines cirCing the course and felt
abundantly repaid at that The most interesting
machine the B1eriot monoplane, while on the
ground took practically part in the exhibition.
Compare the exhibition as witnessed by our people
here last year with that to which New Workers
have lust been treated at Belmont park, where,
during every day there were number of ma
chimes of the various types in the air at one time
and on one occasion eleven machines were IN the
air at once.
If Los Angeles can secure the presence Of ten
or dozen trained aviators, using all the various
types of machines, and using them, as they now
do, so much better than ever before, the exhibition
will not lack the novelty which should secure
greater crowds than that OF a year ago.
We believe that the exhibition will be most sue
cessful and that the citizens who subscribe TO the
fund will not only receive all their money back but
will have the satisfaction at the windup OF know
ing that a very considerable profit has been re
allied, which will be devoted to the purpose Of
making playground for the children Of the city.

THE PERiLs oF 1912

Editor Herald: The history of the
Anglo-Saxon race furnishes no parallel
to the present day combinations Of pre-
datory corporations. The financial anG
Industrial fate of individuals, states
and territories is at the disposal of
pirates of Wall street as completely as
the commerce of the Mediterranean
was ruled and dominated by the pirates
of Algiers.
The malefactors of Wall street have
also organized, fed and fostered polit-
ical machine, intrenched in DEGREES OF
feudalistic courts and fortified by the
criminal negligence of the department
of Justice, and now defines the federal
government in it's efforts to secure
legislative relief for the despotism OF
trust corporations which have been
able to secure the signature of the
president, who confessed that the tariH
law contained indefensible provisions
which he signed for the alleged reason
that the emissaries of corporations are
more powerful than the governments
plea made by the man who holds in his
hand the veto power of the whole ma
tion.
Therefore the pending issue Is shall
the people rule or shall the corporations
of Wall street rule?
Neither the president nor any other
corporation boss can obscure this issue
or complicate it by his pneumatic
message to congress, nor can he by
state dinners to Cannon clothe his ad-
ministration with mystery, for his own
hand has unveiled before the people the
true character of the high priest and
stuffed prophet.
The perils, visible in the pending
struggle for supremacy in 1912, is that
the sovereignty of the people will re-
main subverted by the corporation pro-
cess. distinguished for its insiduous
corruption in official supremacy at
washington by the aid of the reac-
tionary Republican machine. Is this
concrete disaster to popular govern
ment to be followed by another equally
fatal in its perversion of representative
democracy. These perils concern every
citizen of this republic.

was before the State Bar association at its meet
ing in Los Angeles last Tuesday, did you notice
who it was that took the lead in opposing the
change and protesting against the assault on the
sacred institutions handed down by the fathers
Ever hear of Grove Johnson Of Sacramento or
Frank Fl. Short of Fresno? Ever follow their
careers as attorneys for the Southern Pacific and
see how faithfully, even ardently, they have served
their mutual client? These were the gentlemen
who didn't want it made easier to convict GRIM
inas. Mr.. Short trembled with apprehension
let no cynical person say he may have had in mind
the possible peril Of some wealthy client at some
future time-With apprehension lest the time
honored safeguard thrown about the individual
be broken down to the rretrevabe harm of so
ciety.
The widely different attitude Of the Johnson
Short kind of lawyer and school that has
grown up and is even now i'll majority In the Cali
fornia Bar association shown by this colloquy
that took place between Grove Johnson and Judge
Bledsoe:
"You boast that the three-fourths verdict
will cheaper the cost of prosecutions, said
Johnson. "My, has it come to the point that
we are measuring the rights OF the lndiv1d
uaI by what it costs to give him justice?
suppose Mr. Bledsoe would favor majority
verdict from jury of seven.
81 have given you right to suppose
that" retorted Judge Bledsoe, but l want
to say, now that you have brought the ques-
ton squarely up, that I am emphatically in
favor Of majority rule in all branches of gov
ernment. That is the very foundation of our
institutions"
AS the majority took the view of Judge Bled-
soc there was nothing left for the S. p. attorneys
to do but shake their saddened heads and beWail
the degenerate days which the bench and bar
have fallen. When the temple of justice pareys

A HEARTY LAUGH
Being the days best joke from the news
exchanges.

The teacher in a West Philadelphia
school had called upon Freddy to tell
the class a story in fifty words. Ac-
cordingly Freddy arose and began as
follows:
"I have a little sister. Her name is
May. May likes pussies and dollies.
One day May saw a pussy in our gar
den and she said, Here, pussy, pussy,
pussy! Here. pussy, pussy, pussy!
Here, pussy, pussy, pussy'"
And Freddy sat down with much
satisfaction. There was a moments
pause, and then voice, evidently that
of the class mathematician, called out
from q rear corner of the room:
"That's only thirty-eight words"
Up stood Freddy again, unperturbed.
and continued: Here, pussy, pussy.
pussy! Here, pussy, pussy, pussy!
Here, pussy, pussy pussy!" Then he
sat down.

A woRkINeMAN's COMPLAINT

Editor Herald: Please give me space
to call public attention to very grave
injustice being done to the workingmen
of this city by allowing employment
offices to exist. This morning one of
these agents had on his bulletin board:
"Wanted-Six rough carpenters, So per
day, eight hours work; must be able to
lay floors" On applying for this job l
was informed must first pay fee OF
$3.50 before I would be even informed
who my employer was TO be. In the
vast majority of cases of this kind the
order is placed by a foreman, who di-
vides the fee obtained from the work.
ingman with the agent Nor is this the
worst of the matter. The common prac-
tice with such foremen is to discharge
men as fast as the agent can supply
others, for no reason except the pocket
ing of additional fees. So long as en-
ployment offices are allowed to exist SO
long will such injustice continue. Why
not advertise these jobs in the public
newspapers of the city and create
municipal employment offices as well:

words to this song are written by her,

which had touched her life, and which,
like all life's experiences, left it fuller

The music is typically Oriental, and fits
admirably the tragic pathos of this
peem, which follows:

Are grief and I not divorced?
Oh. warm this heart with loves fond signs
And make to oren closed eyes.

Make me a child again just for tonight!
Mother come back from the echoless shore,
Take me again to your heart as of yore;
Kiss from my forehead the burrows of care
Smooth the few silver threads out of my hair;
over my slumbers your loving watch keep
Rock me to sleep, mother-rock me to sleep!
Backward flow backward, o tide of the years!
| am so weary of toll and of tears
Toll without recompense, tears all in Vainj-
Take them and give me childhood again!
I have grown weary of dust and decay
Weary of flinging my soul-wealth away;
Weary of sowing for others to reap
Rock me to sleep, mother-rock me to sleep!
Tired of the hollow, the base, the untrue

Many a summer the grass has grown green,
Bossomed and faded our faces between,

Come from the silence so long and SO deep

No love like mother-love ever has shown
No other worship abides and endures-
Faithful, unsehsh and patient like yours;
None like a mother can charm away pain
From the sick soul and the world-Weary brain.
SIumber's soft calms o'er my heavy lids creep
Rock me to sleep, mother-rock me to sleep
Come. let your brown hair, just lighted with gold,
Fall on your shoulders again as of old;
Let it drop my forehead tonight
Shading my faint eyes away from the light;
For with its sunny-edged shadows once more
IIaply will throng the sweet visions of yore;
Lovingly, softly it's bright blows sweep
Rock me to sleep mother-rock me to sleep!
Mother dear mother, the years have been long
Since last listened to your lullaby song
Sing then, and unto my soul it shall
Womanhood's years have been only dream,
Clasped to your heart in loving embrace,
With your light lashes just sweeping my face,
