Still thinking about those owl cars.
Now some doctors say ballooning la
the best nerve tonic. It all depends on
the coming down.
Los Angeles Is patiently waiting for
Mr. Huntingtfln to start those owl
cars. Patience Is a great virtue.
It's dangerous to look like a general
In Russia nowadays. Bearded men
should patronize the barber shops.
When the Russian farmers are
through tvith harvesting we may ex-
;'*pect another revolt. Even revolts have
V- seasons.

"I can't help anybody this year,"
says Senator Flint. Alas! yes; and
that's where some of his dearest
friends are destined to fall down. -
In a funny tabular statement tend
ing to show Pardee's strength in the
state Republican convention, the Ex
press puts down as "Controlled by Abe
Kuef, 129." Evidently a misprint, as
everybody knows that the proper pro
portion is, "Controlled by Abe
Rucf, 825.'! • •
Did you ever notice that whenever
a partisan politician gets Into a nice,
soft berth himself, he either declares at
once In favor of civil service or coolly
pooh-poohs "the unseemly scramble
for public place." If you hadn't no
ticed this, ask Senator Flint. He can
tell you how true it is.
Now it's the Japanese -who are scan
dalized over the disclosure that they
have been eating tinned horseflesh for
canned cow* moat. But there Is some
thing in they point of view. In Paris,
for instance, tinned horseflesh is con
sidered a delicacy nearly equal to the
famed pate de tola gras.
Long Beach trustees have followed
the example of San Pedro's authorities
and promised protection to ships that
want to load or unload cargoes. It is
regrettable that the necessity for such
official assurances In a republic should
arise. These two cities propose to run
their municipalities on law-abiding
lines.
"I am a Democrat." says Mayor
Dunne of Chicago, "and I intend to re
main a Democrat." Consequently, and
as a matter of course, he proceeded to
divorce himself from the Influence of
William R. Hearst and to kick over the
Hearst yellows. So it goes, all along
the line. The American people are
coming to their senses.
The people of Los Angeles hope that
Mr. Huntlngton will not think too long
about that owl car proposition. They
believe he will seize the opportunity
to put this city In the metropolitan
class by his own generosity and from
a sense of local pride and interest.
They don't want him to wait until the
owl cars start themselves under stress
of hammer and tongs.
l J3r. Moore, superintendent of city
} schools, says that "year by year the
! quality of teachers is deteriorating, be
) cause we can't pay , good men and
J women enough to keep them." Yes,
but we can and must. The great city
• of Los Angeles Is ashamed of
itself for the beggarly wages it pays
, Its teachers, and it will applaud a rev
' sonable Increase by the school board.
Human nature Is Just about the
same, whether north or south of the
'. Maaon and 1 Dlxon line. A Plttsburg
i mob. of .(00 angry men Bought to lynch
the negro who was alleged to be the
■' corespondent In the Hart jo case. And
I yet he had contested that he was only
j hired by. white men ■ to ■ admit he was
{ ;the corespondent, when In fact he was
not. But the defamation of a good
i 'woman's name ' aroused the manhood
j 'of that •cs.ndaJ-riaden city.
ANYBODY BUT HEARST
New York reports that "Sixty-nine
delegates % representing the Brooklyn
Democracy will go to the state con
vention next month unlnstructed for
any candidate, but with positive In
structions to fight the nomination of
William it. Hearst should his name be
presented to the convention."
Jn thl« expression' of disgust toward
ths perpetrator of yellow ' Journalism,
the Brooklyn Democrats voice the
*entim«nts of the t>emocratld party In
the state. The Democrats of New
fork, In fnrt. have had a surfeit of
Hearst. In the early period of his ex
ploits In (ho big city hs was received
with some favor by the Democrats,
who regarded him aa a possibly useful
political factor. But they made what
they now recognize as the glaring
mistake of sending him to congress.
That boost caused the swelling of his
bump of self-conceit to the proportions
of a baseball and Inflamed, his political
aspirations until they became Intolera
ble.
The support that Hearst received for
the presidential nomination in 1904
showed, however, that a combination of
wealth and abnormal gall may make
even an Intellectual homentlty a dan
gerous factor In politics. The ridicu
lous pretense Of being a zealous cham
pion of labor, while really a snob of
the "shoddy aristocracy" class, has
enabled him, with the aid of his string
of yellow newspapers, to muster a con
siderable political following. This at
titude, together with the sophistries
that please the Inconsiderate and Ig
norant class, have made Hearst as
baneful in the field of politics as Is the
Canadian thistle in the field of agri
culture.
It Is because of the dangerous ten
dency of Hearst's political activity,
best known to intelligent Democrats in
New York, that such unusual action Is
taken as reported on the part of the
Brooklyn contingent. It is a common
practice to Instruct delegates to vote
for a favorite who is seeking a nom
ination, but special instruction to vote
against a particular aspirant Is some
thing extraordinary. It means, simply,
"anybody but Hearst." And this posi
tive determination Is the more remark
able because Brooklyn gave Hearst a
very large vote last year in the New
York mayoral election.
But the action of the Brdoklyn
Democrats illustrates the disgust which
Hearst now inspires among Democrats
in all sections of the country. Demo
crats who were Inclined to regard him
with some favor In the early stage of
his spectacular appearance in politics,
now despise him for his treachery to the
party. His attempt' to defeat the
Democratic ticket In New York by or
ganizing his Independence league and
posing as its candidate for governor.
has proved too rank for the Democratic
stomach.
But there Is some compensating ben
efit even in the ignominious political
career of Hearst. The) disgust he has
inspired in the Democratic party has
helped to unify the party and to bring
together every element for a rally
around W. ; J. Bryan as the Democratic
candidate for president in the election
of 1908.
SHORT-SIGHTED AGAIN
,To the surprise of every Intelligent
taxpayer In Los Angeles, the board of
park commlsslonert yesterday declined
to accept the lani donated by property
owners of Euclid Heights for a park on
Stephcnson avenue.
This Is worse than short sight. It Is
neglect of a plain public duty.
Land owners In Los Angeles are as
generous as those of any other city, but
even our local people are not falling
over each other In a wild desire to give
up private property for city purposes.
Los Angeles is lamentably lacking in
small parks. It was short-sighted policy
on the part of the founders of this new
city ■to overlook and neglect park
places. . That policy cannot be cor
rected In the downtown districts, but
in the newer sections, such as Euclid
and Pico Heights, land offered free for
purposes of small parks should be
readily accepted, with thanks.
The park board gave two "reasons"
for refusing the Stephenson avenue
land for a park. These "reasons" are,
first, that no provision Vas been made
in this year's budget for the Improve
ment of new parks. The second "rea
son" is that It was somebody's scheme
to enhance private property In that
neighborhood. '•'.'■')
Both "reasons" are almost too silly
for public discussion. The property
owners who offer the land free ex
pressly agree that the improvement of
the property. Is not asked or expected
this year and there -was no stipulation
that tho city should build ithe park
until the money was readily available.
The second "reason" is Billler than
the first, because The Herald has
shown that when the city constructs
and develops a park the increase in
the price of surrounding property nat
urally increases the taxes, increases
the city's revenue, pays for the park
Improvement and enhances the beauty
and natiu-l advantages of the whole of
Los Angeles. '•; ''1
. It seems like sheer stupidity, there
fore, for the park board to refuse a
donation of land for park purposes in
a case where the stipulations are all
In its own hands. Los Angeles has
made this mistake too often heretofore.
In the light of present Intelligence and
knowledge of city building, it looks as
though our city authorities ought to
manifest some appreciation of the re
quirements of a great metropolis.
The' Stephenson avenue property
owners may make one more offer of
the land In question at the next meet
ing of the park board. If they do, the
board ahould be prompt In accepting it.
There are already nlnety-»lx Repub
lican candidates for the thirty-nine
offices to be fllled by the people In No
vember. It's three to one that flfty
e/jven candidates are doomed to be left
at the pjut.
LOS ANOELE9 HERALD: FRIDAY MORNING, AUGUST 10, 1906.
CONDITIONS THERE AND HERE
Tho high temperature enveloping
most of the eastern states during the
last two or three days Is reported as
causing greAt distress in the cities.
Along with the heat \* that most un
welcomo side partner, excessive hu
midity. When that double team works
together with a steady pull no debater
wants to take the negative end of the
proposition "I« life worth living?"
None but long-time dwellers In the
big- e'ftstern cities can realize fully the
meaning of the recent news, read here
In Southern California, telllns; of the
high markings of both humidity and
temperature. Even the graphlo de
scription of effect falls to give a true
idea of the situation, except to persons
who know the facts from experience.
In the Herald's dispatch from New
York Wednesday, for lnstnnce, It was
stated that New York and its environs
sweltered all day and fur Into the
evening, for this was the hottest day
here this year/ The "sweltering" does
not stop with sunset In the east as It
does, even in the warmest weather.
here In the land of the blessed. The
four million people of the great city,
a vast proportion of whom swarm in
grent tenement houses, dread the mid
summer night because it gives no In
vitation to slumber.
What the people there do at night. In-
Buch circumstances, is described In this
feature of the dispatch: "Thousands of
tenement house dwellers could not en
dure to stay In their crowded homes
and- deserted them Tor the time being
for the city parks and the seashore,
where they will sleep . tonight In the
open."
The night Is really the most distress
ful part of the twenty-four hours under
such conditions. There Is an abate
ment of the Intense heat at night but
not of the humidity. In the streets the
air is oppressive by reason of its sul
triness, but In the tenement hives
where people are crowded together the
atmosphere Is stifling. It Is this condi
tion within the packed homes of the
people— the middle classes to a large
extent as well as the poor— that makes
existence almost intolerable.
For the sake of getting even a little
breathable air these dwellers In the
hot air boxes swarm out Into the
streets and up to the flat roofs of the
tall tenements, railed In generally by
high pickets. Stoops and sidewalks
are covered by fitful sleepers, men,
women and children, with a large
sprinkling of puny babies at the breasts
of wornout mothers. In the districts
near the rivers the sufferers swarm
upon the piers and docks, seeking the
feeble whiffs of breeze that come up
from the j foul water fed by great
sewers.
Contrast such conditions of midsum
mer life with those which prevail in
Los Angeles. The great tenement
house, in the first place, Is an unknown
quantity here. Even the poorest people
In this city have ample room, with rare
exceptions, and there jls not a nook
anywhere that does not afford an am
plitude of fresh and wholesome air.
"We know neither excessive temperature
nor high humidity at night in Los An
geles. Fresh and invigorating breezes
from the ocean are almost Invariable,
and instead of "sweltering" In the effort
to sleep we are more likely to pull up
the blanket, for the safte of ,/armth.

woman doesnt have to tell her age Is

DEARIE
The little winds are whispering,
I hear them In the trees;
The little birds are whistling
Their songs unto the breeze.
The little ripples running
On the tiptop of the foam
Are singing, singing, singing
As they race toward home.
And, O, so cheery,
Skylark nnd veerle.
Bird and breeze and bee.
Are singing nothing all the day.
Like little bobolinks at play,
But dearie, dearie, dearie,
dearie-ec!
Up among the cloudlands.
Far along the sky.
Little flash of lark wings.
Little far-off cry:
Over Held and ocean
Bird and breeze and spray
Are singing, singing. Hinging
Dearie, dearie all the day.
And, O. so cheery.
Far off and neary.
Like a golden cantlc,le to thee.
The world does naught but sing.
Like a bird upon the wing,
O, dearie. dearie. dearie,
dearie-ec!
In my heart of love, dear.
Something's singing, too,
Dearie, dearie, dearie
All the livelong day to you.
And adown the night time.
When the shadows creep.
It's dearie, dearie, dearie
For the sweet, sweet sleep.
Ah, yes! so cheery.
Never grown weary.
Heart of my love sings to thee,
All around tho glory
Of the old love's tender story.
Singing dearie, dearie, dearie,
' dearie-ec!

Picturesque Scenes In Old World

BT. nnifiUC, Sunday, July 22.— "t,«t

When 1 was presented he wits smok

manner.
Dyved, attended by thirty Celtic not
ables of Wales, with Alderman. Thomas
of Cardiff rb master of ceremonies,
croMed to Brittany yesterday to attend
the Celtic fetes arranged to tnke pince
in the little town of St. Hrieuc, some
little distance wnat of St. Malo.
The Breton Bardic Oorsell Is an off
shoot of the Bardic Goriedd of the
island of Britain. Dyved has come to
receive the homage of his Breton sub
jects.
H«re on ft dolmen which i ates back
to forgotten centuries and which la sur
rounded by twelve ancient menhirs or
pillars the druids nnd bards will stand,
forming a guard around the archdrulds
of both branches of the Celtic race.
Gorgeous Robes
The druids will be clad In their robes
of snowy white: the bards will wear
garments of brilliant blue. The arch
drulds will be crowned with a diadem
of oak leaves, and will each wear 'a
breastplate Of pure gold.
Around them will rise Celtic banners
— the hernldlc dragon of Wales and the
ermine of Brittany. The Celtic treasures
will be brought forth— the horn of
plenty, the sacred mistletoe, the mystic
sword and other features necessary for
the due observance of ancient customs
and rites.
The ceremonies began yesterday aft
ernoon with the reception of the tired
Welshmen at the railway station. On
the platform was a group of Bretons
in old-time costumes, Including the
Breton archdruid, who speaks admir
able English and who is editor of a
local newspaper.
The band of the Seventy-first regi
ment played "Land of My Fathers" and
the "Marseillaise," and a pretty little
girl in. Breton dress presented Dyved
with a beautiful bouquet. Then, in the
station buffet, the Welsh bravely drank
weak tea, and the French still more
bravely pledged them In sweet cham
pagne.
Canon Edwards spoke In Welsh, and
an old Breton peasant woman who was
present assured me that she understood
every word, bo similar are the two
tongues. ...
In the evening a Breton concert was
given In the public park, at which two
very excellent Welsh singers, David
Michael and Miss Maud Parsons, cre
ated wild enthusiasm by first singing
Welsh gongs and then the "Marsell
laise." The immense audience cheered
and cheered again, and many flowers
were thrown on. the platform.
Celtic Service
The strong religious views of the 1
Welsh prevented their taking active
part in today's fete, their ceremonies
being reserved for tomorrow. Early this
morning they held a Celtic service In
the hotel, at which several prominent
Bretons were -present.
It was a pretty compliment, and was
explained to me by one of the Bretons
present in this way: "Naturally, I am
a Catholic, but today I am a Celt, and
I am Liberal always!"
St. Brleuo was crowded today with
excursionists from neighboring towns,
as well a* from Paris and the Channel
Islands. The scene in the street - Is
curious. Women In the white caps and
green shawls of Brittany Jostle other
women In modern dresses made accord
ing to last year'rj Paris fashioi.s. Black
coated priests and red-trousei'cd sol
diers are there in dozens.
A wedding procession passes, headed
by the bridegroom playing a concer
tina. Ancient country carts follow mo
tor cars fllled with extravagantly be
goggled. occupants.
A trlumphial arch at one end of the
town bears the worfl "Welcome," and
tricolours and Union Jacks are, flying
from every window and are festooned
ALTERNATE RULERS. .

Poetic Ideals
During the Journey from England I

Alderman Thomas something of the

Mr. Grout— Well, I don't pretend to
know everything.
i Mrs. Grout— lf I ware going to revise
that statement for you. I could think
of only one change to make.
Mr. Grout-What would that be?
Mrs. Qrout-"Anythlng" for "every
thing."

ideals underlying the pan-Celtic move

j| "A , nation's Ideals," said Alderman
Thomas.- "are enshrined -In •its ' lan
guage. The Celtic peoples have quali
ties that are all. their own, and they
can best serve the . world by preserv
ing their own characteristics and their
own language."
It was impossible not to be impressed
with the poetic idealism of Alderman
Thomas and his companions, apparent
ly a typical group of prosperous mid
die class men and women, including
preachers, doctors and tradesmen. ...
During the channel crossing they
again and again broke almost instinc
tively into the perfectly harmonized
singing of "Land of My Fathers" and
other Welsh national airs, and as they
sang there was the- same faraway
gleam in their • eyes as one observes
With religious myßtlca and with men
of downtrodden nationalities.
The Welsh are not downtrodden, nor
are the Bretons. Great Britain rejoices
that the Welsh retain their own
strange tongue, and the French gov
ern, after some hesitation — the\French
temperament yearning for uniformity
In language aa in every other thing—
now takes the same attitude.
WHY SHE THREW HIM OUT
A Philadelphia politician was talk
ing about the last Samuel H. Ash
brldge, former mayor of the city. /.
"I worked under Mr. Ashbrldge' for
three years," he said, "and found him
a good masther, a considerate, kind and
just master. ■ .
"But one thing he always Insisted on.
That was implicit obedience to orders.
If he told you to do a thing, that, and
nothing else, was what you were to do.
He didn't- like a subordinate to try to
improve on his orders. '. .
"I once tried to improve on an order
of Mr. Ashbrldge's. An errand I had
been, sent on I did better, as I thought,
than I had been told to do I It. But
when I came back the mayor smiled
and told me a story.
"He said that there was a young man
In love with a rich and beautiful girl.
The girl informed him one afternoon
that the next day would be her birth
day. He said he was glad to hear it.
He said he would send her the next
morning . a bouquet of roses, one tobo
for each year. . V . .. ; •
"So that night he wrote a note to his
florist, ordering the Immediate delivery
of twenty roses to the young woman.
But the florist, reading this order,
thought he would please the young man
by Improving on It and so he said to
his clerk: .„,.■■ '; •
'"Here's an order from young Smith
for twenty roses. Smith Is one of my
best customers. Throw in ten more for
good measure.' "—New York Tribune.
UNVEILCO
Deep In the stillness of a night
Whose rain had drenched the way I
trod ■ * ■
I wakened from day's earthly dreams
And walked alone with God.
Rained down and drowned in dusky
pools
The quiet stars lay shining through;
And earth was all so steeped in heaven
That it was heaven, too.
I listened, and the voice of God
Bpoke to me In that lonely place;
I raised my eyes in wondering fear,- "
And looked, and aaw His face.
And ever since. I see but Ood ■
In earth and man, in deep and height.
As one whose dyes the sun has filled, ■ ••
Looks round, and sees but light.
