CONSERVATION
VT ; \TIONAL Conservation congress
\ will be held in the first week of
-1-" September, and It is hoped and
believed the Roosevelt conservation
policies will he expounded hy their dis
tinguished originator. The congress will
be held at St. Paul, Minn., and It is
the duty of the California delegation
to make timely preparation for a cam
paign that will bring the next congress
to Los Angeles.
Conservation of national natural re
sources will he regarded by posterity as
(lie most far-seeing of the national pol
icies of the early twentieth century.
The theory of conservation is much
better and more generally understood
now than it was a few years ago. Much
<>f the wastefulness from the effects of
which the North American continent
is suffering—a. wastefulness that -was
reprehended and checked none ton goon
—was the result of ignorance.
What seemed to have been provided
by nature in. reckless abundance was
wasted by man in reckless use. From
prodigality to penury Ik an easy step;
and it was only when beggared nf
some of its riches that the nit ion be
gan systematically to rehabilitate
itself. But facllis descensus averni,
jind it's a long cdimb back. Still, much
progress has been made— encouraging
progress—and while the lordly bison
will never more roam the great plains,
woodland and water will be preserved,
and there will be no more wanton
ivildernessing of the land that in its
primeval condition brought forth abun
dance for man and beast.
NEEDLESS FEAR
ASIATIC Exclusion league is repre
sented by a remarkabli maga
zine calk-u "The White Man."
Every intelligent Japanese and Chinese
who reads our language will fairly
gloat over the unexpected revelations
of craven timidity and nervous appre
hension contained In the hysterical
pages of "The White Man."
"The White -Man" is written by
white llvered men, whose nightmares
are awesome visions of the triumphant
conquest of the Pacific by the brown
peril, which haa replaced the yellow
peril, of tlie white peril which cleaned
the red-skinned human being oft the
North American continent nothing la
saiii. A little ovit 250 jenrs ago there
wasn't an English-speaking white
in America. They Beem to be L'alrl} nu
merous now.
The aggressiveness which has plared
upward of a hundred million white
English-speaking people on a continent
that was still for the most part unex
plored when the Declaration of. inde
pendence was signed has not bpen
unspoiled even by the commercial <lo
bauchery which has been a regrettable
feature of modern times. Let us culti
vate Independence, honor, honesty,
courage,' Americanism, brotherly kind
ness and patriotism; trust in God arid
do the right, and wo need fear no foe.
Los Angeles leads the twenty largest
cities of the United Stales in pi
age of gain in building valuation* in
April, as compared with the amount
for the same month of last year. And
Uiat's the 1,03 Angeles way.
BIG CITIES
CENST'S figures are oonflrminK the
impression the tendency of mod
ern population Is to drift Into
gnat metropolitan centers. In the
growth of its city populations Amer
ica is not alone. The population of
London ll about R,000,000i of New York,
about r.,noo,ooo; at Part* upward of
3,000,000; of rhicngo. nbout 3,00C,O0O; of
Berlin, 8,008,000, nnd of Vienna. 2.000,
--000. During the past few years tho
average annual increase In New York
lias boon about 126,000; in London,
109.04G; Chicago, 58,435: Vienna, 50.222;
Berlin, 31,199; Paris, 9565. Should this
growth be maintained for fifty yean
London would have 13,000,000 inhab
itants; New York. 11.000,000; Chicago,
0 and Vienna, 4,500,000.
And, figuring 'hat Greater Los An
geles at the time of the completion of
the Panama canal will have at least
1,000,000 Inhabitants, the population
fifty yean hence should be about
,000.
Since hygienic improvements and re
forms tend to increase population by
lessening disease and the death rate
it is the duty Of civilization to make
preparation for the care of city pop
ulations. A comparison of German
and American methods of city build-
Ing is not flattering- to our progressive
country. An observer says: "Compare
Berlin, with its splendid streets, Its
beautiful parkways and its artistic j
elevated railway property with the
average American city, or evi'ii with
the most advanced of American cities,
and the contrast is striking. On the
one hand we find system, foresight,
efficiency,.honesty and beauty. On the
other we find chaos, shortsightedness,
inefficiency, graft and ugliness "
Prom this general condemnation Los
Angeles should be excepted. By build
inK with an eye to grace and propor
tion as well as to commercial needs
Greater Los Angeles will become the
most beautiful and artistic city in the
world.
THE COMET
H ALLEY'S comet—the return of
which will gr,atify the supersti
tious by its coincidence with
King Edward's death—is now splendidly
visible between 3 and 4 o'clock in the
morning. People who do not take ad
vantage of this opportunity to gaze
upon the spectacular wanderer are not
likely to have another opportunity, be
en use after it leaves our skies it won't
revisit them for about seventy-rive
earth years .
After May 18 the comet will he visible
after sunset, but will constantly de
crease in brightness.
Scientists believe they will make im
portant discoveries by observing the
comet with the splendid instruments
now available. At last there may be
an answer to the conundrum: "Why is
a comet?"
The plan of the universe is orderly.
Through all the heavens, as through
all the ages, on^ Increasing purpose
runs; and therefore the apparition of
the wandering glory star has its ob
ject and Its significance, and will have
its results.
But what will they be?
AUTOMOBILE SAFETY
NRAP.LY every automohile accident
reported is explained by the fact
that safety lias been sacrificed tv
speed. In spite "f examples, warnings,
reproofs, admonitions, the speeder pur
sues his mad course and makes trouble
for himself and those who are so rash
as to entrust their safety to his care.
Accidents caused by bad roads, how
ever, are not preventable by the ut
most caution. The condtlon of the steep
grade extending out of the Arroyo Be :o
near Avenue 66 and Jlarminn way
should be remedied without delay. Ow
ing to the condition of the roadway,
citizens on a touring car were exp'is 1
tv imminent danger of death Sunday.
In self-defense, as well as for the pro
tection of the public, automohilists
should Inspect roads and streets in the
county, and especially in the Greatei
Los Angeles area of influence, and
should report and blacklist all danger
ous sections,
MENACE TO PEACE
ALFRED AUSTIN'S latest effort is
entitlel: "A Truce of Qod, H
Kinsr's Bequest." We approve the
yearnings of the laureate for interna
tional peace, and believe modern inter
national society must organize Itself
mi a permanent peace basis if it would
secure the permanency of the Cauca
sian school to civilization.
But we cannot appreciate the poetic
style in which .Mr. Austin laureates
his peace piping intent, surely there
is bewilderment In the lines:
Rnuii'l royal shr.'Uil
A mournful crowd
is all now lf.'t of one bul I'eaterday a king.
The laureate conveys the impression
the remains of royallty are a crowd.
Hy nil means let us have interna
tional peace. But we suggest there Is
one possible menace to that desirable
condition its exasperating name is Al
fred Austin.

GOOD GOVERNMENT organization'
has been enlarged, and its field of
operation includes Los Angeles I
county. It now numbers among its

to have a direct association with The

Mr. Watchorn is an expert on the
workingman's side of the industrial

Mr. Watchorn should ally himself with

HAVE PITY ON TAFT IN
HOUR OF PARTY TROUBLES
WASHINGTON, D. C May 4.—
[Editor Herald]: The hissing Incident
In connection with President Taft'i
address of welcome to the woman's
BufTrage convention recently held in
Washington, D. C, was of such minute
dimensions as to give small worry to
anyone other than a politician whose
cuticle is worn thin from party buffet
tins'. We seriously doubt if Taft could
have heard so small a demonstration
a year ago. So. sisters. Instead of
adding another burden to his already
heavy load of party difficulties, be
charitable, and those of you who are
Republicans "give your attention in a
true, womanly way to preparing 1 some
sort of balm for hi? wounded politi
cal feelings and a tonic to toughen
his epidermis to future attacks from
young blood among his female op»
ponents In the struggles which are
sure to come. And you good old Dem
ocrats, do not, we beg of you, bear
down too strenuously upon him. Con
sider what straits a man must be In
to make such a mountain from a mole
hill. Have pity also for one whoso
time is so strictly confined to keeping
his party in leading strings that he
does not know that this "undesirable
class of women" he Is so much afraid
of will spoil what good might accrue
from votes for women.
If this* class of women votes ever
spoil woman's suffrage it will be
simply because men have reduced them
to the point where they can be bought
like other political tools.
Cheer up, sisters, it is at least
slightly significant that as the cause
of woman's suffrage gains In power
the men are beginnin-,' to clean house.
They evidently feel that some ehanses
are necessary before woman cumes
into her own. AMICUS.
