I Did you wear your green carnation?
That was an edition worth sending
back east
Keep the normal school here; this is
where it belongs.
Sheath the managerial knives; the
opera season is over.
.'Also, there are a few mines in Cali-
Cornia, Don't forget that.
And it was St. Patrick's day in the
morning; and all day, too.
; It was delightful, harking back to
the land where the shamrock grows.
I If you don't know all about the Ne-
S.da mining districts now it's yolir own
ult.
. Look up your favorite mine in The
Herald's big edition yesterday and
learn all about it.
Not all California's gold hangs on her
orange trees. There are some mines
in the Golden State.
It's all right to sell the old normal
school, but the institution should be
kept in Los Angeles.
Presumably that electricity trans
ported to San Francisco from Feather
river will be used for light purposes.
■ The Southern California petroleum
crop Is quite as great as is its citrus
crop. This Is the land of gold In more
ways than one.
It may surprise some unknowing
ones here to learn that Los Angeles
consumes one-fifth of its $25,000,000 fruit
crop. But it does.
Any one who thinks that Nevada is
a "haß been" should read The Herald
df yesterday and thus ascertain that
Its greatness has only begun.
In electing officers on Mount Lowe
the hardware men must have gone in
for a high old time. Or else they want

Even prison doesn't cure an ex-sen

going to start March 23, though he will
be released only the day before.
There are mines and mines. If you
have stock in a proposition reviewed
In The Herald yesterday you come
pretty near being in gootf hands.
The fact that no other city can
have La Fiesta de los Flores Is suf
ficient excuse why the city council
should aid thn one to be held here.
'The normal school Bite may bring
60 per cent more than the upset price.
You can't hold Los Angeles realty
values down; there's little use try
ing It.
An eastern scientist says that flow
ers on hats are germ carriers. Thanks,
awfully, old chap; this is indeed fine,
coming right at the Easter millinery
season.
By all means the normal school
should be rebuilt In Lob Angeles. This
city has no other state institution and
certainly Is entitled to the one it now
contains.
"thin rush of railroad presidents to

Ijow have the mighty fallen! They

When highwaymen enter Jewelry

o'clock at night and loot them un

to prevent it.
Now that the opera season is over,
perhaps the local theatrical magnates
will consent to bow distantly to one
another as they pass on opposite sides
of the same street.
Ex-Senator Burton seems not to have
learned humility or caution by his term

but this RhnuH not be permitted If It
can be prevented by the offer of a site
In Los Angeles that would lie attrac

The situation demands some public
attention. Quit making money for a
few hours, some of you busy bankers
and prominent citizens, and attend to
this matter, which is the concern of
all.
EXTEND CITY LIGHTS
Los Angeles needs an extension of
its handsome downtown lighting sys
tem, to cover the cross streets between
First and Seventh at least— possibly
farther. Already a movement to light
Fourth street from Main to Hill Is
under way; It should be broadened to
take in First, Second, Third, Fifth,
Sixth and Seventh streets.
The downtown lighting system of
Los Angeles is admittedly the most
beautiful In the world. Nothing like
It Is known anywhere. Ita charm con
sists as much In its inherent soft
ness and unobtrusive qualities as in
Its brilliancy. Some cities line their
streets with arc lights and make them
hideous. Los Angeles has wisely ad
hered to the incandescent, or orna
mental fixtures, and Its streets are won
derfully fine.
Other cities are now coming Into line,
too, with the Los Angeles idea. Den
ver went In for arcs, but has shifted,
and will put up incandescents on one
of its streets, with the idea of using
them, on the Los Angeles plan, here
after. St. Paul and Minneapolis have
Inaugurated a system, to be started at
once, on similar lines to ours. And still
other cities have the plan in view.
Los Angeles, as the pioneer of good
street lighting, should therefore have a
care lest It fall behind ambitious rivals.
The system here is perfect so far as
it goes. But it does not cover the
business part of the town; it looks In
complete and half finished. It is not
pleasing to turn from Hill, Broadway,
Main or Spring street Into any one of
the numbered cross streets, and find
one's self in a canyon of darkness, save
where some shop throws a fitful gleam
across the way. These side streets are
as important to the illumination
scheme as is a main thoroughfare, and
lights should be placed on them.
The extension of lights to the side
streets would be A neither costly nor a
great task. The corners now have
lamps, and the blocks are short. Two
or three pairs of standards would suf
fice. Why not follow Fourth street's
lead and make all the downtown sec
tion as fine as part of It now is?
PRESS AND MULTIMILLIONAIRES
One of tfce thousands of good things
accomplished by the newspapers, in a
general way, is brought to public notice
by the colossal benefactions announced
by Mrs. Sage and John D. Rockefeller.
There is no question on which the
newspapers are more fully in accord
than in the Just treatment of conspic
uously wealthy people. Mere million
aires are too common in these days
to call for special notice, but .men and
women who write the sum of their
possessions with eight figures— a few
use ten — are persons of immense pub
lic Importance, and are so treated by
the press.
There is scarcely a doubt, for ex
ample, that Mr. Rockefeller was led to
his recent stupendous gift to the cause
of education, at least in great measure,
by the universal press bombardment
to which ho has been subjected. To
that source also may be attributed,
partly, his Intimated purpose to give
another and possibly greater surprise
to the world at no distant day.
The caustic cuts that Russell Sago
endured from the newspapers, because
of his extraordinary parsimony, no
doubt stung the tender sensibilities of
his estimable wife. It Is highly prob
able that a purpose to counteract that
past criticism, so far ns possible, has
actuated her In the splendid act of
philanthropy now announced. Close
friends of Mrs. Sage belli -vc that she
intends to devote almost tht entire for
tune left by her liuihainl, conserva
tively valuer! at J75,000,000, to philan
thropic purposes.

Just. The parsimonious man of that
class is apt to be salted unmercifully
on ih • raw until he relaxes the grip
on his gold. The generous and public
spirited man, on the contrary, receives
the full meed of newspaper praise for
every noteworthy act of philanthroDy.
LOS ANGELES HERALD: MONDAY MORNING. MARCH 18. 1907.
THE MAYOR IS RIGHT
Mayor Harper evidently has faith In
tha good old adage, "When there's ft
Will there's a way." In regard to the
paramount street Issue In Los Angeles
th« mayor says, In a manner' Indicat
ing determination, "We must have bet
ter streets; I know there must be I
way to get them — Just now I am look
lngllng for that way."
Of course there Is a way and it would
have been found long before the In
coming of the present municipal ad
ministration but for official myopia. It
ls nonsense to assume that Lot Angeles
cannot accomplish as much In the way
of modern streets as every self-respect
ing city In the United States of even
one-fifth the- population of Los Ange
les has Jiucceeded In accomplishing.
And "here la no large city in th«
United States that would not be more
excusable than Los Angeles for neglect
ed streets. Thin because of the peculiar
climatic conditions which favor this
city, in respect to street Improvements,
as no other city Is favored. There is
an average of seven or eight months of
the year when street work may be
prosecuted without any such natural
lnterruptions as other American elites
experience.
What Is especially needed In lios An-
Kolos Is a local application of Horace
(3reolpy's famous apothegm concerning
the post-bellum resumption (if specie
payments — "The way to resume specie
payments Is to resume." Statesmen,
financiers and political cconom!st« Were
agitating their brains with efforts to
find a practical and safe method of re
sumption. Greeley's saying struck
such a popular chord that it was tried
without further palaver and it worked
like a charm.
The way to make good streets in Los
Angeles Is to make them. To para
phrase the familiar Jlngn cry, "We've
got the men, we've got the tools and
we've got the money, too."
The mayor Is on the right track. The
way Is plain If the will points to it. If
any Gordian knots entangle tho propo
sition, cut 'em.
■When a great magazine devoted to
the highest financial interests reports
that Owens river water plans are well
made and that the project is admirable,
especially attractive to bond buyers
and eminently safe, It ill becomes such
penny whistle sheets as the corporation
owned Snooze to yawp at it.
It's all right to flood the Shrlners
with glowing accounts of beautiful Los
Angeles, but it is to be hoped that
their eyes will be so entranced by our
floral displays that they won't look at
our awful streets.
By all means let the council aid La
Fiesta if legal means can be found
for so doing. Nothing could be wor
thier or of more value to the city than
is this great festival of the flowers.
If you can't conquer nature, dodge
her. That la what tho Salt Lake rail
road is going to do in Meadow Valley
wash. Why doesn't the Southern Pa
cific do it in the Salton sea region?
A readjustment of the city ward 9
seems called for, and no better basis
than their voting strength could be
found. Some are sadly out of propor
tion now.
In regard to this gas war, if threats
of 80-cent gas are made doesn't it
make one wonder why we must pay
80 cents for it now?
There is good profit in gras at 50
cents a 1000. Then let all welcome a
gas war that we may get it for that
rate.
Street paving la next in order.

MARRYING IN COLLEGE
Sometimes schoolboys living at home
wed their girlish playmates and it may
be hard to view their matrimonial ven
ture in a much more serious light than
the mating of dickybirds in a cage.
The marriages of college boys, who in
terrupt their courses of study by an
impulsive and irresponsible match, are
more Irritating and usually less for
tunate in the outcome. That is be
cause the college boy calls himself a
"college man" and haß been spending
what he is under the delusion Is his
own income, instead of a terminable
subsidy from his parent, granted on the
implied condition that It Is to make him
a business asßet later, rather than con
tractor of a present liability in the
shape of a girl wife.
It Is to be inferred that the college
boy who marries In his freshman or
sophomore year is not of a studious
cast, for he never chooses a studious
spouse. Some parents fear to send their
sons to a co-educational school, lest
they marry foolishly ere they graduate.
Yet marriages In such schools are all
but unknown. It Is difficult to find a
young man and a young woman student
both of whom are heedless of their it
nponslbllitleH to their own edw
need. It la the college boy In the insti
tutions tor "men" who murries. He

I was traveling on at the time."
HUMANITY
lt has passed Into a proverb that cor
porations have no souls. Fortunately,
the men who manage corporations
often have hearts. The news item
which tells how the St. Paul railroad
ran a special train 100 miles to carry
to a surgeon a brakeman who had his
foot cut off is at least suggestive. We
do not imagine that the superintendent
who ordered this action will be a can
didate for a life-saver's medal, and
we have no Idea that the president of
the road who will approve the course
taken will expect a vote of thanks
from the union to which the brakeman
belonged. They will no more seek to
star their generosity than do the mine
owning corporation managers when
scores of men are burled by a dis
pensation of Providence, and it takes
thousands of dollars to dig the vic
tims out. .
"Every generalization Is false," said
a witty Frenchman, adding, after a
pause, "even this one." Corporations
have no souls. A manager of corpora
tion property is a trustee who can only
bc generous with other people's money.
Therefore, the Inhumanity of corpora
tions must exceed that of Nero, who
had moments of pity; and of Caligula,
who sometimes relieved distress. Rea
son that way, as far as you like, and
your generalisation Is false. Stock
holders are men. Directors are men.
Managers and superintendents and
foremen, are men. They have indig
nation to be— stirred; scorn to be
aroused, . tears to be shed. And when
the emergency comes, and the lives of
the humblest employes are in peril, tho
news flies of American newspapers will
show that corporations are very rarely
derelict la the matter of humane com
l'UHßiun, even . when humane ■ compas
sion : involves .• serious expenditure of
dollars and ■■ cents.— Brooklyn Ragle;
