THEY CANT STOP LA FOLLETTE
SENATOR LA FOLLETTE'S enemies in Wisconsin are tickled
to death because the man who has ridden roughshod over
them for years got himself badly mixed up with a teachers'
institute at Pittsburg. Most of us know that La Follette's
tongue is an unruly member. It is hung in the middle and works
both ways. It knows no such thing as fatigue. In San Francisco
Senator La Follette began talking at dusk and kept at it until
the small hours. It was a great occasion.
But in Pittsburg it was different. Mr. La Follette began early
in the afternoon and by the time people were thinking of dinner
he was in full swing. The chairman tugged at the speaker's coat
tails to no avail. The river of eloquence flowed on and on. The
trusts were getting it hot. It was every pop a corporation. At
last the chairman, growing desperate, broke in with a few remarks,
in this wise: "Lock here, Senator; you have talked now long
beyond your limit. It is after 4 o'clock. This hall must be reno
vated for a lecture tonight." But "Fighting Bob" was not to be
shut off that way. He went out and talked from the front steps
and carried the crowd with him.
All this seems very important in Wisconsin and it is eagerly
seized as a weapon by the remnants of the old political machine
that La Follette smashed. Wisconsin is shown sitting in sack
cloth and ashes for La Follette's sin. Disgrace is heaped on the
state. She hides her head. Thus the Milwaukee Sentinel: .
His peevish and demagogical display of arrogant bad manners and im
perfect sense of the dignity of the high office he is supposed to fill are exciting
ridicule and disgust in about equal parts outside his own state, and as for
his own state an outside commentator says, we should think correctly, that
this mountebank display "cannot but inspire the sober minded American
citizens of Wisconsin with new rec-?r that they should be legally represented
in the senate by a man who has no conception of representative government
and who appears to be mentally incapable of forming one." La Follette's
ill starred attempt to override the arrangements of this gathering and turn
its platform into a tribune for his stump oratory, despite the stipulation
to the contrary, was thoroughly characteristic of the ingrained habit of tlie
boss — a' boss who presents the anomaly of going about lecturing on "repre
sentative government"
Peevish — demagogical — arrogant — bad manners — imperfect
sense — this mountebank — mentally incapable— ill starred attempt—
stump orator}- — ingrained habit of the boss. What fine language!
The trouble seems to be that Wisconsin does not realize her dis
grace, and the real objection to La Follette's fine flow of talk is
that he says things about rogues that they don't like to hear. But
they can't stop him.
TWO UNFIT APPOINTMENTS
THE Evening News of Los Angeles. vigorously, condemns the
recent appointment to office of August Muenter, in these
words :
Senator Perkins has paid a political debt at the expense of the
state by causing the president to appoint as the successor of John C. Lynch,
internal revenue collector for California, State Senator Gus Muenter of
Stockton, whose acts at Sacramento in the' last legislative session subjected
him to the sharpest criticism.
It is perfectly true that Mucnter's appointment was made in pay
ment of a private political debt by> Senator Perkins at the expense
of the national government. It is equally true that the prospective
appointment of John C. Lynch as bank commissioner will be a
similar payment made by Governor Gillett to discharges political
debt due to William F. Herrin.
These are the customary methods by which the political
machine has been kept in working order in California. Public
office is made private property and the man who betrays his con
stituents is rewarded. It is a strange system \u25a0 under which the
people are made to pay for their own injury. I
It is these methods — the methods of Herrin and Perkins— that !
the Lincoln-Roosevelt league is organized to fight. !
NO GERRYMANDER FOR ARIZONA
TATEHOOD for Arizona is evidently postponed for a long
time to come, and in all probability New Mexico will share
J^J the same fate. President Roosevelt announces that he will
no longer insist on joint statehood, because the.; people of ;
Arizona have shown by a decisive vote that they- are opposed to
.union with New Mexico. As the population of Arizona is small,
this means indefinite postponement. By way of alternative, jt is pro- i
posed that. Arizona shall unite with Nevada; but this proposition is
no more likely to succeed than the other. There is too much
politics about it. Senators Newlands and Nixon would be certain
•to oppose it in congress with all their power, and senatorial courtesy
is a potent influence. i
Changes in political boundaries are always the cause of heart
burnings. Where they take the shape of a gerrymander within state
limits they are effected only by the ', brute force of a ' dominant
majority in disregard of minority protests. Where they cannot.be
carried out without the consent of both parties they are rarely
successful. This is equally true whether it is a question of dividing
a state or of uniting two territories as one state.
BAD TEMPER AND THE FLEET
THE eastern brother is much distressed and even terrified-rfor
publication-^because the president proposes to leave the Att
lantic coast naked to its enemies. Visions of bombardments
and invasions, alarums and excursions are writ large in editorial
columns. There: is the devil to pay because the fleet goes a- visiting
.on the Pacific coast. There is not water enough' in Lake^Mefritt
EDITORIAL PAGE
to float a battleship up to Secretary Metcalf's doorstep, and in Puget
sound the water is so deep that the anchor will never touch bottom,
and the fleet will go drifting, drifting. 1 here is no coal and' there
are no drydocks.
5 Terror reigns in New York. The Sun is filled .with alarm. It
quotes a statement to the effect that there is no : drydock on the |
Pacific coast large enough to admit a modern battleship; nor even
was its fright allayed when Mr. George T. Marye jr. wrote in
explanation :
I am not familiar with the dimensions of the.drydcck Dcwey at Qlongapo
in the Philippines, and' l do not know whether it could accommodate the
largest "of our battleships which it is proposed to send to the Pacific,
but the larger of the two drydocks now in use at Hunters point in San
Francisco has adequate facilities for that purpose. ' It- has a length of
750. feet and a depth of 3£ ' feet 5 inches. They are now building at
Hunters point a drydock which will ' have a length of 1,050 feet and a
depth of 34 feet 5 inches, and it will ,be the largest' in the world. When
finished it will accommodate two battleship's at one' time. But the one
in use isjadequate to the requirements of any of Admiral Evans' ships':
The World of the same city has a, whole bundle of reasons,
any one of which is big enough to explain a bigger thing if any of
them were true. Look at this inventory:
"This Roosevelt spectacle."
"San Francisco and Oakland will witness the great naval parade prom
ised them by Secretary Metcalf." ,
"The parade will be the "most conspicuous of 'my policies.'"
"His Pacific coast parade."
"And for what? To gratify Mr. Roosevelt's- weakness for noise and
j show." * -
"Bunching all our heavy battleships and -cruisers 14,000 miles away
to play politics with congress and the cbuntrv."
"To make for San Francisco a holiday? His present plans say yes."
"And to gain what?' Delegates to "a national convention? Votes for
his chosen candidate?" '
These are two of the biggest papers in America. Now what
do you think of the wisdom and. knowledge that they keep on sale?
There are plenty of good reasons for. the coming of the .fleet,
\u25a0to Pacific waters, but it is not worth while to state them if thef^
are no better reasons the rri oye fthaiii:thosc;qiwte<i.? : .These r are

at Monterey, came to town to help out the celebration. W C. Parker p.

the grand marshal's aids; General Pico commanded a company from Mission
Dolores, all on horseback, .with a beautiful banner inscribed California, E
Pluribus Unurn/ The California pioneers also had a banner, the famous
'Eureka.' Captain Howard commanded the California guards and Captain

California, San Francisco, Empire of the State, etc The police and fire
departments, the typographical society -and the boatmen, Free Masons. and
Odd Fellows were represented. Mrs. Wills, a Louisiana beauty and blue
stocking, was poetess of the day, and Nathaniel Bennett, the great lawyer,
was orator. J

Artists Not Sorry tears at the fiery passing of the Cliff house.
Cliff HOUSC BUTTIS f O r t h ey had never ceased grumbling over
the inartistic p}le erected by the late Adolph Sutro. The original Cliff
house, say these esthetic souls, was in keeping with the surroundings. Its
inconspicuous architecture made it a part of the rock on which it was built,
while thef Sutro castle, with its wooden turrets, always appeared cheap and
out of place. .When a mere tot in kilts I remember driving many times to
the old Cliff house,' kept by Captain John Foster, in those days when there
were no streetcars to transport one from town to the beach.
Of all the" gay doings at the new Cliff house, just demolished, but one
clings to my mercory-rrthe wedding feast of Margaret Craven and young
Koehler, her millionaire husband, son of a brev/er. Champagne Sowed like
the ocean that surrounded the banquet room, and instead of the bridal choru*
the orchestra played "There'll be a hot time in the old town tonight."
