THE HERALD'S CITY CIRCULATION
, The Herald's circulation In «he city of Los Angeles
Is larger than that of the Examiner or the Express
and second only to that of the Times.
Today the mayor probably will "take his pen in hand"
and write boldly "Owen McAleer, mayor," at the foot of
the public utility ordinance relating to the city's light-
Ing and telephone service.
In the National Congress of Mothers at Washington
a resolution was adopted demanding the expulsion of
Senator Smoot. It is fortunate for the Utah man that
senatorial togas are not in feminine fashion.
Washington's United States senator whose term ex
pired March 4, Hon. A. O. Foster, has come to Los
Angeles for permanent residence. He made a good
record at Washington and he will be heartily welcomed
here.
The practice of two children riding together on a
bicycle In this city, which caused the frightful death
of a little girl last Saturday, always is dangerous. If
there is not an ordinance prohibiting the practice there
ought to be one.
A Chicago judge declared in rendering a decision
that "If a woman marries a brute she has a right to
defend herself, even to the point of taking his life."
That suggestion is an immense improvement on the
whipping post idea.
The largest week's consignment of oranges during
this season was sold in New York last week, the total
being 198 carloads. The result of the sales is told in tho
old story: "Good oranges are wanted, but a large pro
portion of the fruit is wasty."
The Indian maidens of the Sherman school were
not a match for their palefaced sisters of the Los An
geles high school at basketball. The Los Angeles girls
"made good" the defeats of the local male palefaces by
the champion football team of the Sherman school.
All Herald readers who read the pathetic story of
the little boy's rescue of his dog at the risk of his own
life were pleased to see in yesterday's paper the picture
of the comrades, the boy and the pet. Equally pleasing
was the report that the physicians pronounce the lad out
of danger.
A reception in honor of United States Senator Flint
is planned for next Wednesday at Eastlake park as a
■welcome on the occasion of the senator's home coming
from Washington. A greater reception will be tendered
at the end of his term If the record of it justifies the
present promise.
It Is pleasing to note that a number of Los Angeles
business and professional men, who are lovers of horses,
have organized to relntroduce the popular and genteel
sport of racing In harness. It is hardly necessary to
say that no Ascot park abominations will be tolerated
in the new departure.
Tomorrow a characteristic California exhibition will
begin at Temple auditorium. It is the unique flower
festival for which preparations have been in progress
several weeks. The flower festival will be an attractive
substitute for the street fiesta, which sprouted but
■withered for lack of financial nourishment.
The burst of popular indignation over what was
thought to be a dastardly murder, in the case of the
Colton merchant Shumate, Is toned down by. the pres
ent suspicion that the tragedy was a suicide instead of
a murder. Circumstances not creditable from the busi
ness view now seem to point in that direction.
"Here In the broad west," says Rider Haggard, "I
have ridden thousands of miles and see the land hardly
scratched." In these virgin acres he sees "sites for
blessed home»" suitable for a vast population. He looks
at our broad west from the viewpoint of the crowded old
world and perceives possibilities that are overlooked by
permanent dwellers here.
"Vice President Fairbanks has gone into training early
for the race to decide the next Republican nomination
for the presidency. He has been saying pretty things to
North Carolina people, and in return he has been told
to his face how "the signs now point to the nomination
for president four years hence of a distinguished citizen
who has honored us by his presence tonight."
A notable incident In the evolution of Los Angeles
occurred on Saturday. It was the removal of the
Farmers and Merchants' National bank, the largest
concern of its kind in the state outside of San Fran
cisco, from Its old quarters to the magnificent new
building at Main and Fourth streets. Millions of dollars
were transferred from the old building to the new and
tbis morning the bank will open its business In the finest
banking house in the west.
One effect of the pressure for needful space In the
library den at the city hall was the crowding out of the
daily newwpaper flies, which always attracted many
readers In the evening who were employed during the
day. The Hies were moved to the chamber of commerce.
As the chamber doses at 6 o'clock each day and la
closed all day on Sunday, such persons are cut off from
access to the papers. Some arrangement should be
made, fur restoring the usefulness of the flies to that
ilabs uf readers.
LOS ANGELES HERALD: MONDAY MORNING, MARCH 27, 1905.
THE CITY BEAUTIFUL
Now that Los Angeles l« able to take care of Itself
In the ambition to be "greater," it Is proper that atten
tlo.i be paid to means for making it more beautiful.
The encomiums passed tipon the city by strangers
in noticing Its unquestioned general beauty do not satisfy
the esthetic citizen. We Bee, perhaps more readily than
the stranger, inch defects as detract front the general
appearance which excites admiration at first sight.
Log Angeles is properly classed tie a beautiful city,
but there are two degrees of comparison beyond beau
tiful.
Progressive citizens who have deep affection for the
town are eager to see It more beautiful, nnd their zeal
will not be satisfied until the superlative degree is at
tained.
The streets of Los Angeles aro not on a progressive
level with the fine business structures and handsome
residences that line them. Fair progress is noted now In
the making of better streets, and with that start the
time has become rife for beautifying the streets.
As a beginning In that direction, and a necessary be
ginning, there should be less talk and more action In
the line of clearing the forest of unsightly poles from
the curbs.
Admitting that it is too expensive at once to put all
electric Wires under ground except in a limited area,
there is no reason why the wire supports should not be
made less hideous. There are examples In Los Angeles
of a style of steel supports for the highest wire lines
which are light, shapely and quite artistic. THe substi
tution of such supports for the many varieties of per
pendicular logs that deface the streets would greatly
relieve the ugly perspective that the eye now encounters.
Another Important matter In the line of beautifying
the streets is the need of a systematic plan of tree plant-
Ing along the curb lines. Many streets of Los Angeles
have handsome borders of shade trees, but on the whole
there is an unpleasant incongruity arising from the fact
that every lot owner follows his own inclination in the
selection and placing of trees.
There are several varieties of trees shading the
streets which were popular some years ago but now are
obsolescent. The eucalyptus, popper and gravillea are
examples of that class. The first named embraces some
handsome species, but those most commonly seen in
Los Angeles have only their rapid growth to commend
them. The pepper tree is beautiful in twig, leaf and
berry, but it roots up and destroys sidewalks, besides
littering tho surface of the walks with berries and
twigs. The gravillea is a beautiful shade tree, but Its
almost perennial shedding of twigs makes it a nuisance
on walks and lawns.
Put the electric wires underground as fast as that
is feasible; oblige the owners of the ugly poles to re
place them with such light and symmetrical steel sup
ports as noted before; adopt a plan for congruous tree
planting on all curb lines, having the whole tree system
under proper official supervision, so that the barbarous
tree butcher may be held at bay.
There are other' timely suggestions in the line of
making Los Angeles more beautiful, but the street needs
will answer the purpose for a beginning.
EXPANDING IN ALL DIRECTIONS
Within the last two or three years a marked change
has occurred geographically in the expansion of Los
Angeles.. In the early progress of the city, In its new
era, the hill portion was the favorite for residences.
Handsome structures were erected on the sightly emi
nences, while the level country southward and westward
was comparatively untouched. Many such residences
still adorn the hills, landmarks of the earlier period.
The advent of rapid transit, however, turned public
attention to the level lands of the southwest and west,
more remote from the business center, and the expan
sion of the city set almost exclusively in that direction.
At the present time there is not a point of the com
pass that does not disclose business activity in Los
Angeles. The west and the southwest still "hold the
fort" in popularity, but the grip also is shared by all
other sections to greater or less extent. Districts that
were rated as dormant for years have felt the spur of
progress and now are rivaling the older favorites in
building improvement. The north, east and south all
begin to challenge the favorite sections of the west and
southwest for popularity in the near future.
The question of transit undoubtedly has been an
important factor in effecting the change thus noted,
although the natural beauty of the districts slighted
before and now appreciated must have exerted a strong
influence. The gradual trend of Improvement in one or
two general directions caused a like lengthening of the
time required in passage between residences and the
business center. That consideration finally, led to the
seeking of home sites In comparatively new directions.
Today a line of circumference drawn with a three
mile radius from the center of the city will show build
ing activity at nearly all points. Districts that were in
the country only two or three years ago have been
platted in city lots which are "going like hot cakes" to
eager home builders. Values of such property are in
creasing rapidly, evidently leading up to the earlier ex
perience in the west and southwest, now sadly recalled
by citizens who allowed golden opportunities to slip
through their fingers.
EXCESSIVE RENT CHARGES
In the history of Los Angeles there never has been
such general complaint of high rents for business places
as is heard this spring.
The policy attributed to the railways of charging
"all the traffic will bear" is the policy pursued by the
average owner of business property, according to the
view taken by tho average tenant. Business concerns
that have long been established and that always have
been prosperous are complaining of the figures de
manded now for stores and shops.
The policy of exacting the last possible dollar in
rentals is short-sighted. Good Judgment demands the
retention of a satisfactory tenant on more favorable
terms than could be expected where a new business
venture Is to be undertaken. The chance of a business
failure and the likelihood of complete loss of income
from such property in the interval between tenants al
ways is a matter to take into account. The possibility
of making the figure more than "the traffic will bear"
should not be overlooked.
There is also considerable complaint this spring In
legard to the rent figures for dwellings, but not to the
extent noted concerning business places. Visitors who
make inquiries in that line remark upon the higher
rents for houses in Los Angeles as compared with cities
of approximate size in the east.
Excessive rent charges are reasonably sur« to cause
profuse display of "For Rent" notices.
In preparation for tho large buelne-a to be baudled
by the Salt Lake railway on the completion of the
through line the company will at once enlarge its local
freight depot to four times the present capacity. The
date for formal opening of the line has not yet been
fixed, but probably It will be in the latter part of April
or early lv May.
THE NEW NATIONAL BIRD
PRACTICAL AMERICAN WOMEN
Mrs. Rorer Takes a Very Pessimistic
View
from the Chicago Chronicle.
It Is discouraging to have Mrs. Sara
Tyson Rorer, the expert on cooking,
say that American women are growings
less practical; that their homes are
gradually slipping out of their hands
and that housekeeping has Improved
but little in the last generation.
For the past twenty years almost
every woman's club has sustained a
home science department, the number
of cooking schools has Increased all
over the land and almost every news
paper devotes at least one column a
week to household arts. What is the
matter that the returns are so poor?
Where is the laxity?
All the clubs have reported progress
in the condition of the home. It has
been pronounced more sanitary, more
artistic, more scientifically conducted
than ever before. The plumbing is
looked after most religiously. Clean
rugs have taken the place of the filthy
carpets in „ vogue a generation ago.
Breakfast foods, appetizing fruits and
delicious steaks have taken the place
of the heavy, greasy breakfasts of
thirty years ago. If dinners are some
what more elaborate it Is rather in the
mode of serving than in the fussiness
of preparation.
The dinner today tempts to conver
sation, whereas the name meal a gen
eration ago meant business, a loading
up, an eating with little thought of
the esthetic side of. things. Bat what
is set before you was the maxim In
vogue, and In many cases it required
scripture authority to make one swal
low the unwholesome 'meal.
The housekeeper of today is priding
herself on her proficiency In the chem
istry of foods. She knows the animal
proteids and the vegetable proteids,
the albumens, the proteoses and the
peptones. She knows Just what to set
before one to produce the desired circu
lation or the 'kind of vitality needed.
Nor does she trust to luck as her
grandmother did. She works scien
tifically. She brings her mathematics
to bear and scorns slipshod methods.
How, then, can Sirs. Rorer speak
so slightingly of the modern house
keeper? Has she heard none of the
papers read before women's clubs?
None of - the discussions? Has shs
never met the modern woman in all
her glory as housekeeper? Never sat
at her table and tasted the hygienic
foods? Never listened to the brilliant
conversation that is now a feature of
■the ordinary home dinner?
Where has Mrs. Rorer been all this
lime that she has escaped the up-to
date housewife, the product of the
college, the cooking school and the
home department of the club?

TEN-CENT INSURANCE
Billions in Development of One Branch
or Big Business
From the World's Work.
Thirty-three years ngo a New York
Insurance man's attention was at
tracted one day by a rather derogatory
reference In the Massachusetts insur
ance, report to the work of an English
company, which was insuring 1 the lives
of worklngmen and children on a large
scale. Today that man is president of
one of three similar American com
panies, •which stand pledged to pay in
the future more than two billion dol
lars to more than ten million people;
which are dispersing half a million
dollars a week to their policy holders
in sums averaging perhaps a hundred
dollars; which have assets stored up
of nearly one hundred and fifty mil
lions; and most notable of all, which
collect, by hand, a quarter of a mil
lion dollars a day in ten cent pieces!
Such a growth within the working life
of one man is amazing, even In this
age of Industrial miracles, and an ex
amination of its details heightens the
wonder.
Strangely enough, though one family
out of every five In the United States'
has one or more industrial policies on
some member, the average well-in
formed man knowß nothing whatever
about the system or its workings. But
ask your household servants, and the
chances are you will find that at least
one of them Is paying ten cents a week
to a company which guarantees her
a hundred dollars or so in case of
death — enough to pay for the funeral
expenses. This was the foundation
principle of industrial insurance, art'l
is still the dominant reason for 'An
existence: the avoidance of a burial
at public expense, or leaving a burd*n
of debt upon one's' family. The aver
age cost of burial for a child under
two years is from $12 to $25; the aver
age insurance on children between one
and two years old Is $19.48. At th<>
age of ten, the average funeral ex
pense is $50— the average industrial
policy; $69.94.
From this initial idea, however, the
business has developed "cash divi
dends" and "paid-up policies," uni.il
now Its payments ■ of claims alone
amount to twenty-five million dollar*
a year, sums ranging from $15 to
$1000.
