ting shrubs, always plan for the fu-
ture. Make yourself certain about the
size the little specimens you plant
will grow TO, and set them far enough
apart to allow of full development
without crowding. II hardy perennials
are used to fill in between them
while they are developing, there will
be no upsightly gaps at any time.
Such plantation along the side
of a lot can be made a thousand fold
more ornamental than the most ex-
pensive fence, and one of the strong.
est arguments in its favor is the pleas
ure that can be got out of the making
of It, There is nothing quite so en-.
joyable to the person who likes to be
among the green things growing" as
work in the garden. There is a new
surprise in store for every day. And
the exercise Is OF that kind that keeps
both mind and muscle In play In a
manner that makes one forget to get
tired. The happy combination OF men,
tai and physical exercise makes work
in the garden ideal recreation for
woman and child. THE only objec-
ton to be urged against It," writes a
correspondent, is that after a little
one wants to be out of doors all the
time" Which is the best possible
argument in it's favor!

The Beauty Pageant.

We fear that our suffragist friends in New York
are about to make serious mistake in that beauty
parade next Friday that they are about to divide
their ranks into factions beautiful" and the
unbeautiful and that the latter constitute sore
and disgrunted majority While among suffragists the
ratio of the beautiful the unbeautifu is prob
ably larger than it is among people generally it
must be small there. There will be almost
certain resentment against the leaders who have
planned this pulchritudinous parade.
If it were to be parade of only forty nine
beautiful women the project might contain so
much of danger. Indeed, it might be dangerous
at all. While unbeautfu women, ineligible to the
parade might be disgruntled and might express their
cats they would be powerless arrest the prog
ress of the cause of suffrage. They would have no
obstructing votes to throw in way of it.
But when forty-nine tall and beautiful men are
brought into the parade, with votes is likely
to be aroused against the suffrage movement what
ever its previous notions concerning might have
been Every short fat weakened, bald or bow leg
ged man; every suffering a physical disability
that excludes him from the 'aristocracv of good
looks, will be found arrayed against the promoters
of the parade, well the cause that they are
and when the mass is motion by resentment
against the class, the latter is bound be crushed
This thing might have been carried out in Arizona
where the beautiful people are in the majority but
not in New York There has been a sad lack of
political fnesse in organization of the beauty,
pageant.

When Newspapers Get Mad.

\ writer in the California Outlook, in survey
of the political events in Los Angeles, speaks OF
the acrimonious attitude of the Los Angeles news
papers toward another and toward all per
sons who do not follow their respective leads. He
says: There are several things that come pretty
high in the newspaper business and getting MAD
is well up in the list"
That is true, and a does not have to be
in the newspaper business very long to find it
out It is strange that every newspaper man has
not discovered it. The characteristic attitude of
the Los Angeles newspapers toward another
has for years been one Of bitter antagonisnl-
Where there has been a public issue to serve as
pretext for quarrel, pickering has been
steady and personal. 1t has appeared that public
or political differences have only masked their
private hatred another.
We know other large city where this sit
uation prevails to so great though it is
closely approached in Denver. 1t is apt be the
rule in rural communities. For many years, Los
Angeles has been described by visitors great
overgrown country town" We have sometimes
thought that the course of the newspapers con-
tributed to that impression of the outsider.
When one newspaper gets mad at another, it
may have hotheaded ignorant followers who
participate in its anger and when there is
paper small hostile camps composed of
such followers may be formed. The great of
either contemptuously Indifferent else are
moved disgust amusement by the childish
futile quarrel The usefulness the newspapers
temporarily and often permanently impaired.
Their influence with the better class citizens is
lost.
a private citizen cannot get mad in public, dis
turb the peace, and retain the respect of his
neighbors Though his indignation may be honest
he has suddenly surrendered to weakness. He
gives rise to the suspicion that he has other lat
ent weaknesses. Newspapers like strong men,
should always exercise self-control
When a newspaper is mad" it loses its sense
of fairness we'll a proper sense of everything
else, and when a community finds that
paper is unfair, it has lost pretty nearly every
thing of value to it, unless the community
tains a large enough element of the vicious and
the ignorant to support that kind of a newspaper.
We do that newspapers should always
shrink antagOnism. on the contrary, they
should always be alert to antagonze wrong, any
thing that threatens the growth prosperity or
morals of the community In such d fight news
paper may be led attack the policies an
other paper but personal element must be in
jected into the attack.

An Anti Pickwickian Affair.

Both the federal government and the Cafornians
have permitted themselves to become unnecessarily
agitated anti-alien legislation and the Jap
government is manifesting rather belated
disapproval Of what the California legislature is
is directed against aliens ineligible citizen
ship, admitted in the debates, is especially di-
against the Japanese, but for whom the bill
would probably have been introduced at all
1t is a curious, and, in the circumstances, al
ridiculous that the Japanese are less
clined to the acquisition land in this country
than any other aliens who have come in large
numbers. There more Japanese in California
than in any other state, but for the part
they migratory laborers engaging in berry
picking and fruit gathering" Comparatively
their farm holdings valued at less than one
million dollars. The entire acreage owned by Jap
very much less than many in
California held in single ownership. Much their
holdings We're in localities which the whites
had moved to desirable and profitable
localities
SO, the proposed legislation seems meet
dition which it is feared may some time exist but
of which there is present sign The Chinese
California without having aroused the apprehen-
sion of citizens.
That California has a right to enact anti alien
land laws has not been questioned. That is
by pioneer in legislation. At
least eight other have similar laws effect
to the law which the Cafornians propose to
