ON THE WING.

Los ANGELES, Cal. Dec. 6, III.
ED. STANDARD:
1t may interest some of your read
ers to learn of the defeat of the So
cialists in Los Angeles. When J
left Washington the impression was
that Socialism would sweep the city.
but the defeat was overwhelming
The party is exceedingly glum. No
doubt the confession OF the McNa-
maras had much to do with it. What
pleased me more than anything else
was the defeat of the prohibition
ordinance two to one. 1t certainly
is surprising that people would at
tempt the passage of such ridicu-
lous law. Under its provisions,
among other things, it would pro-
hibit a person from Offering a
friend drink, even in his private
house. Prohibition is humbug at
best, but when it attemps to enter
the precincts of the private home,
to dictate its damnable heresies it
is doubly atrocious. | would have to
invent a new vocabulary of language
to express my contempt for people
who would advocate such an in
fringement of personal liberty. IL is
not only an infringement of personal
liberty, but carries with it practical
con6scation of property. Millions
of dollars have been invested in Los
Angeles in the liquor business which
il prohibition had been adopted would
have bankrupted hundreds of men
and put the city on the bum.
/ visited the Hall of Records and
saw the dynamiters of the Times
building = the younger of the two
had a pug-dog look, but his brother
is fine looking man. 1t is q mild
sentence they got for such q nefar-
ious work and their confession was
all that saved their necks from the
rope. 1t is a hard blow on their at
torney, barrow, and will harm the
unions perhaps more than they de-
serve. The unions have the greater
reason to complain as they we're con-
fident of their innocence, as shown
by the thousands OF dollars contrib
uted for their defense. | look for
more developments in the Mcnamara
line before they are through with it.
| think other arrests will follow, per-
haps of greater magnitude. There is
no room in this country for anar-
chists nor prohibitiOnists.
Times in Los Angeles seem to be
good and the city is expanding in all
directions. There is plenty OF room
between the city and the ocean.
1t is raining to-day and the streets
are quite muddy. Something I'M
usual for this season. Our old friend
A. S. Ruth is in the city whooping
'er up against prohibition. Here's
hoping Olympia may never go dry.

The visit Of AZ Australian school
boys to this country as an auxiliary
to their educational course, has been
an enjoyable feature of the week.
They spent two days in this city
during which time they were afford
ed many opportunities Of seeing our
State government in working order;
visited the high schoo; attended un-
ion church services in the Baptist
church; were banqueted in the Y.

Commerce.; entertained by q social
at the Governors mansion, and Mon
day evening given a benefit in Olym-
pia Theater. at which the students
were the entertainers, and made
their travelling expenses from an
admission fee gladly paid by the
audience. The programme consist.
ed OF various amusing and charac-
teristic comic and acrobatic feats,
and numerous musical numbers, vo-
cal and instrumental, and it is said
that their solos duets and band per-
formances have seldom been equaled
in this city. Vocal solos by two
youths, both under ten years OF age,
were greeted with special favor.
The concluding solos by full band
were decidedly complimentary to
their guests. consisting of We've

Robert Mulligan, the young man
who was attacked viciously by young
Sutton. his neighbor, breaking both
the jaws OF Robert, is able to be out
again on the streets. Robert denies
he was intoxicated at the time OF the
attack, as stated in the evening Tscin,
or that there was any reason for the
attack. The court proceedings in
connection with the prosecution be-
fore Justice Walter Crosby, will
doubtless reveal the facts.
Prosecuting Attorney Wilson has
filed charges in the Superior Court
charging George Doherty and Ar
thur O. Bohr of attempting to break
from Jail. some time ago, which
strange as it may seem, is itself fel-
ony, punishable by Imprisonment in
the penitentiary. So the proper
conduct of anybody who in immured
in prison walls, is to set down and
quietly wait for the doors to open by
legal assent or run the chance Of still
farther difficulty.
The alarm of fire yesterday was from
q small house in ChristOpherville,
at the foot Of Franklin street, occu-
pied by Henry Lewis. 1t originated
from defective fue, and rapidly
passed over a portion OF the ceiling
and partition wall. Mrs. Lewis says
she could have extinguished the
flames with a bucket or two of water
had the aqueous element been at hand
but her dependence was an artesian
well, which is altogether too slow for

Miss Laura Harlan, daughter of the
late Justice Harlan, deprived OF her
means of support by her fathers
death, goes to work to earn her Irving.
That sets o fellow thinking.
Evidently, John Marshall Harlan
died poor. Every brave man, in
one way or another gives his life
away" said Carlyle. Justice Harlan
was a brave man; his life didn't
pay" in the ordinary meaning Of the
term. He might have made millions
as corporation lawyer in private
practice. He might have enjoyed ex-
traordinary opportunities for in
vestments" in the thirty-four years
that he held place of tremendous
power over big business, but-he
died poor.
Do you know, we have an idea that
if Justice Harlan looks down from
above, he is not bit ashamed to see
his daughter earning her bread.
Isn't it q title OF high respectively
high respect indeed-under the cir
cumstances.

Death of q Little One.

A very melancholy event last Fri
day was the death Of the four-year-
old son of Mr. and Mrs S w Jen-
nings, near Cooper postofice. The
little one fingered for a day or two
in great pain and suffering after
being seized with his fatal illness.
He was the only child Of his devoted
parents, to whom his death brings
profound sorrow and affliction. The
little child had been frail and sickly
in early infancy, but had seemed to
overcome this indisposition and bade
fair to emerge into robust boyhood
when the grim reaper, death, who
reaps down the bearded grain and
spares not the flowers between, gath
cred him into the sheaves that fill the
great granary of eternity. To the
sorely stricken parents the hearts Of
every one around them 60 out in
tender sympathy for their irrepar-
able loss.

draught. Further examination show
ed that the gas could not be lighted
with the pan in that place. Hence
one conclusion is that Mrs Bannister,
not noticing that the pan was over
the heater. tried several times to
light the gas; that while she was
doing this, the gas, which had been
flowing steadily. caused her to turn
turn sick and faint, and that while
in faint she was thoroughly over
come. The infant, too young to even
make an attempt to escape, was also
yictim.
The fact that Mrs Bannistcr had
vomited led t. the conclusion that
she first turned sick from the smell
Of the gas.
When the fatal accident occurred,
Mr Banrister was at the Western
Union office. He was communicated
with Immediately and rushed to the
scene. Erelong the startled neigh
bors came to offer their services, but
nothing could be done, as the deadly
gas had done its work.
When seen last night DR. Rogers
stated that both Mrs Bannister and
the baby were dead when he reached
the scene. There was no detailed ex-
animation of the bodies. as it was
apparent from the attendant circum-
stances that both were asphyxiated
by the gas.
The news of the sad accident
brought sorrow to the many friends
of the grief-stricken husband and his
lovely young wife, the pride of whose
hearts was the little one, who died
within arms reach of its mother,
both being unable to escape the poi
sonous fumes.
Mrs Bannister was only % years
old and was a young woman of
charming traits of character, who
made friends by the score wherever
she went. She was native of South
Carolina, being a daughter of Mr. j
G. Lifrage of Salters.
