ambassador, and viii Rogers the lore

and Gales participated in bull fight
for the entertainment of Morrow, the

nEARST'S expose" of Mexican in
A trigue against American imperial
ism may increase the circulation of
his sheets, but it is not proving eff
fective in arousing popular wrath
against the Mexican government.
Hearst is an extreme individualist
who plays lone hand often to the
discontinue of the dominant ruling
groups in this country. He has a
bone of his own to pick with Gales
and there is reason to believe that
this campaign is a Matchmaking
proposition designed to force the
Mexican government to grant him
some concessions. Hearst has large
land holdings in Mexico.
DWIGHT W. MORROW is looking
- after the interests of American
Imperialism in Mexico, particularly
the interests that now determine the
foreign policy of the government.
Hearst may blow his head off, but if
Wall Street can get what it wants
by the use Of molasses, why should
it use vinegar?
TWO THOUSAND Germans who had
foreign property confiscated dur
ing the war and for which they have
not been reimbursed, paraded in
funeral procession in Berlin last Sun
day. They were paying last tribute
to the memory of their property,
which was sacrificed on the altar Of
patriotism during the wa. The
paraders charged the government
with having reimbursed the big ship
ping interests for their losses, while
individuals were ignored. We are not
acquainted with the facts. in the case,
but it could be just as the demon
strators say To those that have a
lot, more shall be given and those who
have little, it shall be taken away
from them. Not exactly what the
bible said, but just as good.

"A j. Burns, may be on the witness
stand in Washington to defend them
selves against charges of jury
tampering as these lines are written.
The profession of prophecy, tho still
doing big business, is not what it
used to be, so will not predict what
may happen to the oil king and the
4 glorified stool-pigeon. Sinclair and
Doheny are big fellows, but they. are
not in the Standard Oil ring. What
right had they to buy cabinet? For
this impudence, they will be made to
pay thru their nostrils. Anyhow, even
if it does please John D. we don't
care who ticks Burns, Sinclair and
Doheny.
MOT since Annie MacPherson's ia
~ nous visit to Carmel-b by the-Sea
and the scandalous consequences of
that sojourn, has there been so much
excitement in Los Angeles. The most
recent cause for native turbulence and
displeasure is the habit of city police
men to hang around the street cor
ners during the night and indulge in
laughter that falls on the ears of the
sleep-hungry inhabitants like a chop
suey of sound composed of the bray
ing OF mules, the bleating of goats
and the outlaws of myriad hyenas.
THE natives complained to the police
commission which called the mat
ter to the attention of the command
ing officer, who was of the opinion
that his men. were performing
naturally and giving a proper account
OF themselves. There are more cops
who heard of the bibulous god BAG
chus than of Pan, the god of music
sweet and sour.
| WHEN raiding labor union head
quarters, they are not supposed To
twitter like linnets or chirp like
sparrows. And when the furniture ia
smashed and reasonable number Of
heads are broken, what is more ma.
tural for real cop than to emit q
healthy hee haw? Still. the police
captain has made it known that un-,
less his men learn to laugh in a Iesis
zoo-llke manner, he may compel thysr,
TO wear an apparatus which can trans
form the most beastly growl into /,
sound resembling the tinkline of cow
bells or of ice in pitcher of watet
on hot day.
