All Ameri cans should bo Jeffersonlan enough to subscribe to the immortal doctrine of the essential equality of all men befora their Creator. As a rough and ready western miner once said: "The Al mighty doesn't play favorites. Maybe you think he's got his bright particu lars, but you'll find this is Just because human beings themselves are so dog- Bone ornery they help a fellow human being to think he's something extry when he's Just a mere man, after all." Americans have heard such a din about "great" achievements and "co lossal" fortunes they arc Inclined some times to forget the essential simplicity of the grand republic. The old self evident Jeffersonian truths still are self-evident, and being in plain evl dece should never be forgotten: All men are created equal. They are en dowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights. Among these un alenable rights are LIFE, LIBERTY AND THE PURSUIT OF HAPPI NESS. ■ DRY PROSPERITY OCEANBIDK flection resulted in a decided victor) (or the "drys." The reason was .strictly business. H.

CONNOLLY, Collier's invest!- I gator of Ballinger, says Los • Angeles has an interesting and Intimate association with the Ballin ger-Pinohot controversy. He writes: "Adjoining the. Cunningham group of coal claims in Alaska are the claims known everywhere except In Seattle as the C?roen group. In Seattle they are knowr. as the White group. That Is their proper designation. M. A. Green is an employe or side partner j of Harry White. There are other j groups controlled by White, and the White group of coal claims is the larg est In Alaska. There are eighty clalmi in this group alone. Harry White is said to be or to have been an agent of tho Guggenheims. He is somewhat of a financial and commercial mystery. He is a. man of wealth and Influence. His reputation, however, is not good. He \\ii3 compelled to resign as mayor of Seattle That WM about 1S91! or 1893. Later, White moved to Loa Angeles, Cal., though he gravitated a good deal between there and Seattle. Harry White has boasted in pact years of his family relationship to the Tafts. Ho' Is a personal friend of Dr. William A. , Kdwards, who is married to President Taft's sister and lives at Los Angeles. Before) the writer (Mr. Connolly) went to Los Angeles lie liad a long Inter view with Harry White in Seattle in I the course of which White.told him Incidentally that he had gone to Alaska in 1897 with Dr. Edward*. White was President Taft's personal representa tive on the Pacific coast during the last national campaign. "He was ulso the organizer of the Taft clubs on the coast. In the Los Angeles Times of July 20, li>oß, Harry White's picture appears mi tho front page, together with a column and a half interview with him as the ptrrsonal representative of President Taft. Under White's picture are 1 lie wrrds, "Harry Whitu, Los Angeles man of affairs, who is personal representative of Wil liam It. Taft on the Pacific coast.' "Harry White Is believed by many In Seattle to be tho man who secured Ballinger's appointment as secretary of tho interior. Even before Taffs election White had laid that Ballinger would be appointed Fetretary of thy Interior and that there would be a rad ii.il Chang* from Garfleld's policy. . . . . Whether Hurry V.hite ha? ; been the agent of the Guggenhelms or not, it is hardly likely that he w.ould expect to tarry through to a conaum- j inatinn such a large number of claims, aggregating millions of dollars, taken ! up ne they are by these family groups j through a power of attorney given to one man, unless Harry White had be hind him Fome powerful influence with selfish interests to eerve. The stake luelf is so eulossal and the family re lationships are so easily traced that no sane man, unless he had behind him some protecting power high up, would venture upon so treacherous a course. Los Angalet, the home ot Harry White ami Dr. William A. Edwards, is ;■ Is.. the home uf Senator Frank 1". Flint, member of the BHlllnger-Plnchot In vestigating committee. Hurry Whit*, at well us other close friends of Dr. Edwards, Is prominent in what la known as the dominant political ma chine. Senator Flint owes his election to this influence and publicly acknowl sdgi >l it at the tlmo. Pasadena, sub urb of Los Angeles, is the home of Congressman Jamei McLachlan, an other of tho White group of claimants. Governor Gillett of California and his vifo nlso own claims in the White group. Governor Gillett appointed Harry White California's CcrnmiMion i r to the Alaska-Yukon-Pacinc expo- Bltlon at Beattle. WhiiTE and gil lett ARE ABOUT TO ORGANIZE ANOTHER GROUP OF ALASKA CLAIMS. Congressman McKinlay of California Is another claimant in the White group. "Oscar Lawler, also it resident of Los Angeles, and a member of the same political circle, la the law officer of the interior department under Hallingor. He it is wlio passes legal opinion on all matters In connection with the In terior department Lawler is the po litical protege of Senator Frank P. Flint. Lawler'! former 'aw iirm and Senator Flint's former law firm in Los Angeles have recently been consoli datedi and on the door of the offices of this new firm appear side by side the names of Oscar Lawler and Frank I. Flint. in Washington Lawler is credited with having been responsible fur many of the misstatcments of fact contained in President Taft'l lit: September 13, idu'j, whitewashing Bal llnger. AT ANY RATH, THIS FLINT tiAWXMR CLAIMANT SITUATION IS A PRETTY ONE INDEED." The peoplo of Los Angolas and Cali fornia should watch closely the devel opment and progress <>f the far-from ,ij.l 1 Hulllnger-Pinchot-I-Mnt-Lawler- Taft Btory. Thank heaven, the man (.1 the .u <iuare deal and the patriotic conservation policies is on his uay l'uni". VOTE THE BONDS OF EQUAL importance with the successful consolidation election, Is Its logical sequel, the harbor b 1 power bonds eleotion. The, Qreat .l j...< Angeles program is well defined, • iestiny of this city is plain, and the road to it is marked out. So ob vious is this marking, citizens of Los Angeles need never halt between two opinions as to the «ay in which they Igo in the matter of the bonds, la noi tin' slightest need for hesl tation The success of the $3,500,000 ir bonds and the $3,000,000 harbor bonds Is absolutely essential to the. I growth and prosperity of >ir I/'H Angeles. The bond cluc tlon of n-xt Tuesday is an election "in the course of business." It is the duty of citizens to transact the important metropolitan business in volved In the election by VOTING THD BONDS. Voters must regard this bond elec tion as a business necessity, which for business reasons must be attendod LOS AXGELES HERALD: THI HSDAY MORMXG, APRIL' 11, 1010. i to In a businesslike way—which Is the Los Angeles -vay. Industrial and harbor possibilities cannot be overestimated. Beyond rea sonable doubt, the result of the Im provements that will be rendered pos sible by the harbor and bond Issue will be such that even before the completion of the Panama canal Lot Angeles will be one of the greatest Industrial centers of the Pacific coast; while the completion of the canal will find Greater Iyos Angeles thoroughly prepared to take its destined place as the Industrial manufacturing, marl time, educational and social metropolis of the west. By voting the bonds you will do your duty as a citizen, and will be entitled to I share in the credit for the supremacy which within a few years will be achieved by Greater Los Angeles In the Los Angeles way. Cardinal Merry Del Val, distinguished Spaniard whose name has been men tioned prominently In dispatches an nouncing the failure of the Vatican In terview with Roosevelt, has a strenu ous apologist and defender in Los An- Keles. This defender is a newspaper which believes in machine rule, op poiCl progress and reform and calls It self "Republican," but In reality is typically Tory. "Long live Roosevelt," cried the Italians as the great American citisen said good-bye. The sentiment is one which is shared by all Americans. Long live Roosevelt, the only Jeffer- Eonlan Republican. In the future may He continue to work for the restora tion of the first principles of Ameri canism, and for a square deal for every body. Cook's Mount McKinley ramps have not been found. P.eglns to look as if Cook would have to do it all over again. Next time he should take news paper correspondents with him. By the nay, why Is it newspapers that wend war correspondents to the front don't think It worth while to send corre spondents out with explorers? It would save controversy and trouble. General recognition of the Good Go vernment principle in Southern Cali fornia municipal elections is gratify ing to patriotism mm well us to local pride, for does it not show the force of tho good example of our city and the efficacy of the Los Angeles way? Rev, Hugh ninrk was minister of St. George's X'nited Free church. Scotland; not rector. There are no Presbyterian rectors in bounin Scot land. Dr. Blacks visit to Los Ange les Is the "event of the hour" In theo -1 <>Ki< <il and educational circles.

The total reported was $3,653,808, which exceeded by $836,923 the amount for the corresponding date of last year, and beat the 1908 record by J1,885,067. You believe in Greater Los Angeles. Show your belief in Greater I>os Ange les prosperity by voting the harbor and power bonds. LOOKING OUT FOR HIMSELF A Kanaan sat an the beach at At lantic City watching a fair and very fat bather disporting in the Kurf. He knew nothing of tides, and he did not notice that each succeeding wave came a little closer to his feet. At last an 1 extra big wave washed over his shoe tops. "Hey, there!" he yelled at the fair, fat bather. "Quit yer Jumpln" up and down! D'ye want to drown me?" — Everybody's. Are They for Jimmy? Rise and Fall of Commercial Centers —IV THE highest rank possible, however, j cannot be obtained without the j establishment of factories or the fabricating trades in nil their varleltles I and amplitude, for their products are destined in the near future to consti tute a large part of the exportations. Raw materials In fair measure are here attainable. Climate Is favorable to un interrupted work, and food supplies should not bear oppressive prices. | There should be large demand for man ufactures In tho markets of the Oce anic, Oriental and South American countries. Manufacturing there will be slow in development, those especially nf the more substantial and useful kind. The day is not remote when power required in manufacturing hero should lie abujidant and cheap, and living Hliould not be so expensive as to repel labor or capital. Trade and industries are twin guarantors of a prosperous and resplendent future. In addition to what has been pointed out thi'he must be ships of all classes and In numbers adapted and suf ficient to the work that will be re tiuired. Wait not for government to grant aid in any form. They must be built and put into service as th« I ness of the port shall demand. Ship? In amplitude are us necessary on the water as curs on the railroad tracks. There also must be avoidance of re pellant port charge sand ample con venlencei for loading and unloading cargoes. Tho portl freest from cost to ship owner! are those most patron ized and consequently most flourishing. It in certain that tho sharpest contest ill the future between tho nations will be in gaining control of the commerce of countries bordering on th<; Indian Mild Pacific peas, t'p to the present time the United States haw taken a very subordinate part. Conditions here on the Pacific coast have not been such as tn make available the advantages*, geographical and otherwise, the coun try possesses. We are now so situated except in respect to the possession of an adequate merchant marine, to be come tlip largest beneficiary of that commerce. Foreign ships now em ployed in the trade between this cout and tl ceanlc and oriental countries are few. The Japanese are doing the most, but her exportable commodities are Insignificant compared to ours and our importations from them will ■ lie In large volume, if we delay put ting ships im<> that lervlce Japan and European nations \v i ll step into the opening and supply the demand. For eign ships should not become seriously competitive whin conditions are so preponderantly In our favor and they win 111>t otherwise than through our own neglect or want of the true Amer ican spirit. Ample harbor facilities do not yot exist, but they Will be provided as re quired by the exigencies of commi rce. Tho Kovernment of the United States of hi to years has appreciated tho value of such facilities ami instead of scat ttrlng appropriation* upon unimportan places, as was formerly done, there have been liberal upproprlatlona at such points as arc of large commercial importance. In addition to break waters and the deepening of channels by the government, there Is much to lie done by local authorities in the construction of wharves and other con veniences. In carrying forward the project of making Los Angeles a commercial cen ter of high rank, It should not be as sumed there will be bo obstacles thrown In the way, no efforts of cor porations or Individuals to acquire privileges detrimental to the public In terests. On the contrary, it Is wise to anticipate that plots will be formed and schemes concocted by the selfish and unprincipled to grasp the cream of the benefits that will attend the pro motion of tha enterprise In every stage. This should be expected, because of late, more especially, It has become a practice of a class to push themselves Into positions from which they can rob the public, and their efforts have been and are likely to be aided by officials elected by partisan and machine methods. The people have also become more or less demoralized by the prac tices that have prevailed. Our social system Is far from being up to the standard prescribed by Huxley, who said: "Other things being equal, the most vigorous social systems are those in which are combined the most effective subordination of the interests ol the in- Lionel A. Sheldon dividual to the interest of the social organism with the highest development of his own individuality." That tho creation of adequate har bor facilities will lie accomplished as a first work, and without unreasonable delay, is beyond rational doubt. There are other features in the upbuilding that may wait time and opportunity. How much It may be necessary to da can hardly now bar conceived. That there Is profit In making harbors the freest from burdens and taxation has been abundantly demonstrated by the experiences of other commercial (in ter*. The greatness of a commercial and Industrial center depends much upon the character of the government the people install and maintain. A narrow-minded, weak, expensive or dis honest government ever Interposes ob stacles to rapid progress, and is likely to dwarf the structure for all time. If the government is partisan or ma chine and boss- ruled, designing and favored men and corporations will fat ten at tho public expense, and they will busy themselves in acquiring what will cause a feebfe and retarded growth. Taxation must be limited to what is necessary in rendering gov ernment efficient, and in making im provements that will add to public con venience. < Peace and order of the high est standard must he maintained, all laws effectively enforced, and every effort made to place business manage ment and social affairs on a high plane. Men who would promote the great ness of the city should coalesce and remain coalesced to the end in fight ing derogatory policies and schemes, in requiring of government protection and justice to all. It would be an unmitigated crime to waste the splen did advantage this city possesses through the favor of nature, and th* good work done by earnest and public spirited men, upon a class of greedy, unprincipled and corrupt parasites on the public. BISHOP KEANE SPEAKS BEFORE LARGE AUDIENCE Noted Catholic Prelate Answers Questions of Auditors The Mason opera house from stage to top moat gallery was crowded with an interested audience last evening for the third of the scries of lectures being given by Rt. Rev. Bishop John J. Kc'inn, under the auspices of the lioa Angeles Knights of Columbus. / Bishop ane answered questions placed In the question box of the foyer of the theater preceding his lecture, "Why nuns are not al lowed their liberty," "Why nuns Bhave their heads," and the "Meaning of the underground passages," and "if Jonah was really swallowed by the whale" were among the questions to which Bishop Keane gave answers. The num ber of years since the creation of man, one of tho <iuo*tlons Mked, ill' bishop frankly con fessed that he did not know. Bishop Keane took for the theme of his leo ture "The Worth of Faith In Christ," and pointed out the Cathollrs doctrines regarding tli i divinity cf God In man and man In Qod as exemplified In the life of Jesus Christ. "I mean It literally when I say nod was born In a manger," said the bishop, "and suffered and died on the cross. It is far easier to explain Christian belief than unbelief. Men have done much to tear the gospel Into shreds, but it is sa/9 today. Criticism has done Its best and Its worst, but it,is untouched. "Jewish history ceased with the birth of Jesus Christ. Not a line ha* been added to the sacred book, not a religious tradition has renewed' the spirit of Abraham and the prophets. "Christ was a man of self assertion. He declared himself God. He It was who put on record the incident of his baptism. If he be not . id, he Is the most collosal impostor the world has known. The Christ of Matthew, Mark, Luke and Paul ii a divine Christ. Christianity Is a living fact and the miracles of Jesus Christ enter into the experiences of the twentieth century. The years are num bered from his birth. A business man cannot date a letter or sign a contract without paying him homage. Christ Is the king of the twen tieth century." This evening Bishop Jfeane will speak on "Jesus Christ, the Savior of Men."
