THE COMING VISITORS

1 One hundred and twenty five
members of the Los Angeles Chamber
of Commerce will visit the valley
Thursday The visit will be of some
value to the valley and TO the visitors
and may be of very great value.
As a general rule, these chamber of
commerce excursions are in large part
made up of the credit men and head
statesmen of the jobbing houses, with
very few heads of houses, all of whom
tale occasion to study the affairs of
their customers, while the head sales
men. who are glad hand artists, leave
wave of enthusiasm behind them.
Visitations OF this kind are always
welcome, and they always do some
good, but it is hoped the visitation now
in prospect will differ somewhat from
the ordinary The personnel of this
excursion is not known. If it is to be
representative of the larger interests
OF Los Angeles and those representa-
tfons come seriously minded with a
view to merging the affairs of the
city and the valley for mutual benefit,
there are big possibilities in the visit.
The Press would like to see a con-
ference held during the visitation in
which the viewpoints of Los Angeles
and of the valley might be exchanged
with frankness and good temper but
divested Of the frOth which too often
renders meaningless word exchanges
between host and guest. Such a con-
! ference, if the personnel of the visit
/ ing party is 10 be representative OF
/ Los Angeles. might make the visit OF
/ far more than ordinary import.
/ The announcement of the excursion
as published in Los Angeles follows:
| The passenger department of the
! Southern Pacific has made it's plans
/ for the special train for the chamber
! of commerce trade excursion to the
| Imperial valley, which is to leave the
Arcade station at 9 o'clock next
Wednesday night. There will be q
! dynamo baggage car, two dining cars
club observation car, two compart
ment sleeping cars and four drawing
room sleepers, making a train of ten
cars.
The railroad company will be rep
resented by F. Z. Batturs and F. c.
l-athrop of the passenger department;
W. H. Whalen, superintendent of the
Los Angeles division, and c. E. Want
land, sales agent for Southern Pacific
lands
Secretary Virgins of the chamber OF
commerce announced yesterday that
120 have signed for the trip. The limit
is 1t5.
The following is the complete itin-
eTary OF the excursion:

4 BALD HEADED WOMAN
Shorr of Her Crown of Beauty. Loses
in Love and Marriage

| Hair Is certainly most necessary to
woman. Who could lOrs and marry
bald headed woman? What charms

fguremeqt?
A woman's goal is usuafIy love and
marriage Etar crowning glory is her
hair. The loss of her haiV mars her
beauty, happiness and success. Yet,
right here Il I'll Centre, there are thou
sands of women who are neglecting
or injurins their hair TO sUch an eX
tent that it Is only matter OF time
when it VIII be utterly ruined.
Many women destroy the beauty of
their hair through thoughtlessness or
ignorance o. certain facts. They use
curling irons over heated or 70 excess,
! which destroys he natural oil of the
hair, causing it TO split, break and
come out They do not shampoo their
hair often enough, or too often. They
use soaps 'r preparations which con-
tain ngred Auts positively harmful to
the scalp aud hair.
AS q result Of such treatment, dan.
druff is Created. the hair lOosens, loses
color, falls out. and. baliness com
mences, u,iass proper and prompt
precautions aye taken in lfme. Then
again, microbes and certain diseases

CHAPLIN VERDICT IS
SUSTAINED BY COURT

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 9.-ln affirm
ing the verdict and judgment OF the
United States district court IT. the
case of the United States against
Frank H. and David y. Chaplin,
wealthy realty operators and r-CL1-
nation promoters, the United States
circuit court of appeals at San Fran
cisco has settled one of the most com
plicated and aggravated land fraud
matters in the governments history,
unless the defendants carry it to the
supreme court of the United States.
1t required II weeks to try the Chap
Inns. The defendants were accused
of acquiring government lands through
Z complicated scheme of assignments
1t is said they employed dummies 10
file on the property, which was sgh-
sequently assigned to them. Each
was. sentenced to serve nine months in
the county jail and to pay a fiu- Of
$1,000 From this judgment they 0p-
pealed.
Arthur Kemper, who was. indicted
Jointly with the Chaplins, entered o.
plea of guilty, and the case against
Paul McPherrin, also under ind.ot-
ment, is yet TO be tried. The gov-cl-
ment complaint against Hiram W.
Blaisdell, we'll known land promoter,
to which he pleaded guilty, isoUed
from the revelations in the Chap,tn
case.

STATE CONTROLLER GIVES
FIGURES ON GOVERNMENT

BERKELEY, Feb. 9.-TLe people Of
California spend nearly $2,000,000 a
week governing themselves, State
Comptroller a. B. Nye told the League
of the Republic at the University Of
California. Government OF the state
cost $2O.O0O00O a year: tha5 of coun-
ties $&5,000O00, and lhat df munich
palities $4,000 900.
Nh Nye spoke mainly OF the Lack
OF plan or responsibility in apport,Ou-
ing the 100000 which is required ar
present, to maintain the machinery
of the state. The making OF appro-
priations, he described. as a strug-
gle between localities which. he said
runs riot in the legislature"
A remedy for this, Mr. Nye said
would be budget, with the full power
of governor behind it, based upon
the lines of budgets in European Coun-
tries, where the party in power stands
or falls on its ability to have its es-
inmates adopted.
A long step in the direction Of in
telligent control of the states finances
Mr.. Nye said, has been taken in the
establishment of board of control
which has effected a notable central
ization of responsibility"
The ideal system, Mr.. Nye said
would be one in which the spirit OF
the locality would be held in CHECK
| by the power of the governor, backed
by his entire party. The governor
! Mr.. Nye said, ought to have much
to do with the initiation of finanCia
measures and be held responsible fol
them. Not having this initiative re-
| spOnsibility east upon him, the aver
| age governor makes no thorough study
! of the situation before the session be-
gins. Then the legislature, whose
members are likely to be more inter
ested in parts OF the problem than ir
the whole, puts up 10 him propositions
which have been only half way worked
out, and his only option is to accept
or reject by signing or vetoing.
To use a baseball figure, it WoulC
be better if, in the matter of appro
| priatiOns, the governor could play
pitcher instead of shortstop, for ther
he would have better control Of tht
game

Philadelphia, May 1S.-As result of
the suspension of Ty Cobb for strik-
ing a fan who called him foul names,
a baseball players association may
be formed which will protect the play
ers against unfair decisions on the
part of the league presidents. Cobb
made a bitter attack on Pres. Ban
Johnson for suspending him and de-
clared that if similar circumstances
occurred again he would act in the
same way.
There is no justice in such a de-
cision. I was never given an oppor-
tunity to defend myself, and knew
nothing of any action being taken
until 1 suddenly learned of my sus-
pension said Cobb.
"No man with a right to the title
would stand for the things L was
called. They are unprintable, and if
President Johnson would allow them
to be used to him without knocking
the man down who said them, he is
not a mar.
Ball players at present have no pro-
lection. They are absolutely subject
to the whims of a president, who
can visit his personal malice on them
with no chance for an appeal.
"All the ball players in the country
are tired of such a condition and it
will NJ last much longer. We have
got to organize in our own protection.
When we are organized, if a president
makes an unfair decision it will be
referred to our body and if condemn
ed will be ignored"
