Editor News: Being a subscriber
and an occasional advertiser of your
paper, I believe I am within my
rights writing to you this letter.

Being a citizen of Glendale, hav¬
ing lived within the city limts over
a year, and having the welfare of
the city at heart, I do not think I
am presuming on my further rights
in asking you to publish at least a
portion of this letter in order that
what follows may be perhaps a help
to some one as it has been to me.

There are ten reasons why I must
vote on November 3rd and why I
must adhere to “right” principles:

First: As an American citizen, I
am compelled to protect what I now
enjoy, peace and prosperity, and
hence must make it as hard as pos¬
sible for everyone to do wrong and
as easy for everyone to do right, so
the saloon and its brothers, gambling,
brothels of vice, etc., must go.

Second: I have no right as a citi¬
zen of Glendale to wish on my neigh¬
bor and fellow citizens an obligation
financially by voting wet, and hence
increasing taxes, for nine million
dollars revenue will never meet the
conservative estimate of twenty-nine
million dollars cost of crime, no
matter how expert one may be in
arithmetic.

Third: If I fail to vote “dry,” I
am saying, “as for me and my fam¬
ily, we are dissatisfied with the pres¬
ent condition of Glendale and want
a few saloons here, for if the drys
do not carry a saloon can go any¬
where as it is a state proposition.”

Fourth: The future of America

depends altogether on the quality of
its citizens, and beer and whisky
drinking, to say nothing of the wine,
punch, etc.., drinking people, cannot
positively bring into this world 100%
offsprings, no matter how occasional¬
ly they may take a drink- of any
alcoholic beverage.

Fifth: So often the saying, “like
father so son, and as the boy so will
the man be,” has proven true, so that
I must vote dry and help the drunken
father stand, for if I fail here who
knows his two, three, four or five
sons, as the case may be, will be
like him, increasing the woe and
misery around us all.

Sixth: The government officials

demand it. Where is there to be
found a man who is not glad that
the occasional drinking Roosevelt was
not elected president of this United
States, but that in his stead we have
Woodrow Wilson, not only a positive
temperance man, but a thorough
Christian gentleman.

Seventh: For every drinking man,
whether he be occasional or habitual,
the protection of my home and fam¬
ily is that much less sure, for the
brain repels from alcohol because of
its braincell tearing down effect, and
any physician is bound to admit that
'where the cells of the brain are made
even dull, though they be not alto¬
gether torn down, the party’s re¬
sponsibility to whom the brains be¬
long is impaired according to the
amount he drinks, hence he is said
“not to be responsible,” but what
about the damage he or she may do
to you or me or ours?

Eighth: I vote dry and strengthen
myself for my family needs all I can
give them, and if I spend my money
for anything that fails to help the
home, and where is there one who
will say the home is benefited by
drink, though it be ever so little, I
am a thief and a robber.

Ninth: I must vote “dry” because
we have history to show that all
those cities that forgot “God and
his word” have gone into oblivion
and terrible was the going, and God
very distinctly says in his word that
“we reap what we sow, only that we
sow a wind and reap a whirlwind,”
or in other words our harvest is
many times our sowing, and if I drink
occasionally, my son and my grand¬
son, and yea, even my great grand¬
son, may be drunkards, for the
Bible also says “the sins of the father
is visited—even unto the third and
fourth generations.”

Tenth: I must vote “dry” because
my business demands it. Experience
has taught me that those men who
want to cheat, who lie and endeavor
to get one tied up in crooked deals
and contracts, are almost without
exception either drinking men or
strongly in favor of liquor staying in
California. Good business today de¬
mands and always will demand hon¬
esty, truth and sobriety and neither
liquor nor any of the institutions
that go with it even lend a hand to¬
wards any of these virtues unless it
be to fool the people. v

Hence, you understand that I must
vote for the “drys” just the same as
I must work in order that my fam¬
ily, my neighbor and myself may
have peace, prosperity and health.

Yours for the best interest of

Wednesday, October 28, will be
governor’s day in Glendale, and at
that time Governor Hiram Johnson
will be present and deliver one of
his famous addresses in the high
school auditorium in the evening.

The Johnson-Eshleman non-parti¬
san club of the Glendale community
is making great preparations for a
demonstration that will place a cli¬
max on political enthusiasm in the
San Fernando valley this season.

The presence of Governor Johnson
draws large crowds everywhere, and
Glendale will be no exception Oct. 28.
California has the distinction of hav¬
ing the best-thought-of and the most-
widely-known governor of any state
in the Union. He stands above petty
party prejudices as a leader of good
government. His principles embody
everything that is good in all the
political parties—no angel, but a
good, sensible man.

MUCH INTEREST IN NEWS AD
CONTEST

Many answers were received from
The News “Money in a Name” con¬
test, .ind the winners will be an¬
nounced in tomorrow’s issue. A sep¬
arate prize of $1.00 in merchandise
was given by H. H. Faries, proprietor
of the Men’s Shop, which was won
by Howard Anderson, he being the
first to figure out “the Men’s Shop”
from the letters arranged “Phomhen-
sets.” Mr. Faries said he had over a
dozen answers brought to his store,
the first few hours after the paper
was printed.

< ONGREGATIONAL CHURCH

The attendance at Sunday school
tfas 147, which is the largest by
three. There are classes for all. Mr.
E. O. Von Oven is an energetic super¬
intendent and knows how to make
the school interesting.

The temperance meeting in the
evening was in charge of the Endea-
vorers. The addresses by Mr. Ralph
B. Beers, Miss Ethel Preston, Mr. E.
H. Sargent and Mr. Higbee were all
to the point and were heartily re¬
ceived by the fine audience present.

The special music by the choir,
male quartet and the quartet from
the sanitarium was greatly enjoyed.

Dr. Willisford’s sermon on “Should
Man Fear or Love God?” was a
strong plea for men to love God.

The older and new. conceptions of
God were stated. The speaker de¬
clared that “Jesus Christ was the
most perfect and complete interpre¬
tation of God.” Christ nearly always
spoke of God as “Father.”

In John 14:21-24 we read:

“He that hath My commandments,
and keepeth them, he it is that loveth
Me; and he that loveth Me shall be
loved of My Father, and I will love
him, and will manifest Myself to
him.

“Judas saith unto Him (not Is¬
cariot), ‘Lord, how is that Thou wilt
manifest Thyself unto us, and not
unto the world?’ Jesus answered and
said unto him, ‘If a man love Me, he
will keep My words; and My Father
will love him, and We will come unto
him, and make Our abode with him.
He that loveth Me not, keepeth not
My sayings; and the word which ye
hear is not Mine, but the Father’s
which sent Me.’ ”

A true and deep Christian life is
founded on love. I John 4-16: “God
is lc ,r '<. and he that abideth in love,
abideth In God, and God abideth in
him.”

Love to and for God is the basis
of appeal to men’s lives. Paul, the
great evangelist and missionary, made
this the basis of his appeal. Romans
12-1: “I beseech you, therefore,

brethren, by the mercies of God to
present your bodies a living sacrifice,
holy, acceptable to God, which is
your reasonable service.” Our Mas¬
ter declared the great commandment
to be “Thou shalt love the Lord, thy-
God, with all thy heart, mind and
strength, and thy neighbor as thy¬
self.”

The pastor said that the parable
of the prodigal son was the finest
declaration of the doctrine of the
fatherhood of God and the brother¬
hood of man to be found in all litera¬
ture.

The sermon closed with an earnest
and warm invitation to all to love
Him who first loved us.

Next Sunday morning the pastor
will speak on “What the Atonement
Means to Me.”

Mr. and Mrs. Charles E. Morse of
501 Orange Grove avenue entertained
guests for dinner in their home Sun¬
day evening.

LODOWICK COLEMAN LEEDS.

The Glendale Municipal Band tied
with the Seventh Regiment Band of
Pomona for the third place at the
band contest held by the Ocean Park
“boosters” Sunday. Local and Los
Angeles people who were present at
the contest said that the decision giv¬
ing the Pacific Electric Band first
place, the Whittier Band second place
and Glendale and Pomona third place
was exceedingly rank.

A number of unbiased people in
attendance claimed that the Pomona
Seventh Regiment Band should have
won first place easily, Glendale the
second and the P. E. Band third.

The prizes were $125 first prize,
$50 second prize, arid $25 third prize.
Through the generosity of the Po¬
mona Band, Glendale received the
$25 for the third prize.

The following letter received Tues¬
day morning by Manager Furst ex¬
plains itself:

Members of the Glendale City
Band, Glendale, Cal.

Kind Friends: We are herewith
enclosing you the check received
from the Ocean Park “boosters” for
the band contest. We are very sorry
that your leader should turn over
your part of the prize money to us,
and feel that you boys should have
this draft. Please take this kindly
as I feel the judges have given both
of our bands a very raw deal. We
would not have begrudged your band
the second place, but to have it hand¬
ed to the Whittier band does not set
well with us.

Please accept our best wishes for
the success of your organization, as
you certainly have a good little band.
We want you to keep this draft and
use it to your advantage. We do not
know how your band is supported,
but the state and the city keep up
our band and the prize money re¬
ceived will not be of any particular
benefit to us.

If at any time your boys happen
to be in Pomona, kindly look us up,
and if there is any favor which we
can do for you it certainly will be
done with the greatest of pleasure
on our part.

Again wishing you success, I am
yours very truly,

CHAS. P. ROYER,

Mgr. 7th Reg. Band, N. G. C.

BEE BUSINESS BUZZING

California bee-keepers have just
completed gathering the 1914 honey
crop. According to the bureau of
crop estimates of the United States
department of agriculture, the yield
per colony of bees was 75 pounds,
in 1913 the production per hive was
36 pounds.

The increased production is said
to be due to the enormous crop of
wild and cultivated flowers this
season.

The latest census figures of the
bee and honey industry of this state
relate to 1910. That year there were
687 0 farms in California that kept
bees and the total number of colonies
was 201,023.

ILLITERACY AMONG CALIFORNIA
RURAL POPULATION

The need of more and better rural
schools in California is made mani¬
fest by conditions revealed in a re¬
cent census report showing the per¬
centage of illiterates among the na¬
tive white farming class of this state.
The figures show that the percentage
of illiteracy in the rural districts of
California is three times that of the
cities and villages of the state. Cali¬
fornia has 74,902 illiterates and 44,-
089 of them live on the farms. There
are 30,869 boys and men and 13,220
girls and women on the farms of
this state that can neither read nor
write.

WASH COMMITTEES

By request of Chairman Pridham
of the board of supervisors of Los
Angeles county, two committees, one
from Tropico and one from Glendale,
will meet the board at their rooms
in the court house Wednesday fore¬
noon of this week for a discussion
and probably a final decision as to
what action is to be taken concern¬
ing the boundaries of the Verdugo
wash territory.

The members of the committees
are: Glendale—T. W. Watson, H. P.
Coker, J. C. Sherer, O. A. Lane, W.
E. Evans, Edw. Lynch and John Pir-
tle; Tropico—J. B. Treadwell, E. S.
Ayres, W. Hibbert, A. E. Boyce and
Hal Davenport.

Citizens of La Crescenta will also
likely be represented at the meeting.

The picturesque old bear flag will
have place of honor, next year, just
beneath the Stars and Stripes. It is
going to be California’s year.

There is no halt in the onward
march to war in European countries.
The dogs of war have been let loose,
and no eye is sufficiently clear to see
into the future as to the ultimate
results of these wars.

Great cathedrals of ancient promi¬
nence are falling at the advance of
the enemy. Valuable landmarks are
going down in ruins.

LONDON, Oct. 20, 2:46 a. m.—
The allies have recaptured Ostend,
according to the Morning Post corre¬
spondent in the north of France, who
says he was given this information
on excellent authority.

LONDON, Oct. 19, 9:50 p. m.—
German forces have reached the
neighborhood of Dunkirk, according
to a Berlin official dispatch to the
Marconi Wireless company. Heavy
fighting is taking place at Dixmude
and Roulers. The inhabitants of
Dunkirk and Boulogne are in flight.

PARIS, Oct. 19, 11:03 p. m.—In
Belgium attacks by the Germans be¬
tween Nieuwport and Dixmude have
been repulsed by the Belgian army,
effectually aided by the British fleet.
The official communication issued by
the war office tonight says:

“Between Arras and Roye slight
progress has been made at several
points. Our troops have reached as
far as the wire networks of the de¬
fense.

“In the neighborhood of St. Mihiel
we have gained some ground on the
right bank of the Meuse.

“No news of importance has been
received regarding the remainder of
the front.”

BERLIN, Oct. 19, via London, 5:45
p. m. — German army headquarters
have given out an official announce¬
ment under today’s dale as follows:

“The attacks of the enemy to the
west and northwest of Lille have
been repulsed by our troops with the
infliction of severe losses.

“In the eastern arena of the war
the situation remains unchanged.”

PETROGRAD, Oct. 19.—The Rus¬
sian general staff today made this
announcement:

“We gained partial successes on
Oct. 18 in very fierce fighting in the
region of Warsaw and south of
Przemysl.”

MUSICAL TREAT AT GLENDALE
THEATER

The management of the Glendale
theater has made arrangements with
Joe Kekuku, the famous Hawaiian
steel guitar player and vocalist, to
give an exhibition Wednesday even¬
ing. Mr. Kekuku has played on the
Orpheum and Pantages circuit and
appeared in all large cities of this
and foreign countries. Mr. Kekuku
will be assisted by his partner, a
tnusician of no mean ability, and
they will give a refined performance
such as never before has been
equalled in Glendale, and will play
all the popular Hawaiian melodies,
as well as many American airs.
This genius is the originator of the
Hawaiian style of steel guitar, and is
certainly a wonderful musician. Not¬
withstanding this additional expense,
the prices of admission will remain
the same and the regular program
of five reels will be shown, includ¬
ing the two-reel drama, “Cast Adrift
in the South Seas,” a Hawaiian pic¬
ture, and three reels of comedy.

Tonight is country store night and
it is whispered it is specially for the
gentlemen. The program consists of
the usual good drama and comedy,
including an extremely exciting de¬
tective story.

IRONICAL THAT SCIENCE MAKES
WAR POSSIBLE

It has been pointed out that this
is the only period thus far in history
that could have supported such a
war as the present. It is the only
one whose achievements of science
have made possible the transporta¬
tion and feeding of such armies. And
it is the only one whose engines of
destruction could have produced such
a slaughter and such general devas¬
tation.

The irony of it! That our eco¬
nomic development, fitted to give
everybody enough to eat, fitted to
lessen the old stone-age struggle for
existence, should be deflected to the
barbaric uses of the greatest war of
the ages. What irony that science,
contributing to leisure, to culture, to
the quick interchange of ideas, of per¬
sons and of the means of living,
should be the strong arm of strife
and hatred and mass murder.

"Out of the obscene seas of slaugh¬
ter” won’t a heroic revulsion come
against this frightful perversion of
all that might make life fine and
dear?—Kansas City Star.

Teachers of elocution can’t do any¬
thing for the voice of conscience.

Coroner Hartwell of Los Angeles
county was in Glendale Tuesday fore¬
noon and conducted at the rooms of
the Pulliam Undertaking company an
inquest over the remains of Frank
Dombroska, who was killed on the
17th inst. by a Southern Pacific
freight train near Chatsworth.

The witnesses testifying were a
Miss Wilcox of Los Angeles, Deputy
Sheriff Wright of Los Angeles, Thos.
H. Broadhead, special agent for the
Southern Pacific railway, and a loco¬
motive engineer.

Miss Wilcox testified that she had
been acquainted with the deceased.
She gave his place of birth as Fort
Dodge, la., his age 31, and also stat¬
ed that his habits had not been en¬
tirely temperate.

Wright and Broadhead testified
that after being notified that a man
had been killed by a S. P. train, they
interviewed a man who said he was
in company with Dombroska at the
time he met death.

The story of the survivor is that
both men left Los Angeles on the
17th, with a bottle of brandy. At
the winery between Glendale and
Burbank they bought four bottles of
wine, and then proceeded to steal a
ride on a Southern Pacific freight
train. After riding a few miles, sit¬
ting on the beams of the car, he
asked his friend for a match, and
while in the act of searching his
pockets for a match, his friend lost
the hold on the beam, slipped for¬
ward and passed from view.

The survivor left the train at his
first opportunity and upon returning
to learn of the fate of his companion,
met a later train crew coming with
the mangled body.

The survivor when interviewed by
Station Agent Plum, Deputy Sheriff
Wright and Special Agent Broadhead
was in a state of intoxication.

The jury after hearing the evi¬
dence, brought in the verdict that
the deceased came to his death by
being crushed by a Southern Pacific
freight train, he being in a state of
intoxication at the time of the acci¬
dent.

The members of the jury were H.
A. Wilson, A. T. Cowan, F. W. An¬
derson, Paul Butterfield, Chas. Shaf¬
fer and P. M. Leek.

WILL MAKE APPLE DELIVERIES
WEDNESDAY

Apple Day is a great success in
Glendale, at least so say Johnson &
Lyons, one of Glendale’s most enter¬
prising grocery firms, who adver¬
tised apples at a special price today.
Although they had secured an un¬
usually large supply, all their apples
were quickly taken early this morn¬
ing, and all orders that this grocery
was unable to fill today will be de¬
livered tomorrow at the same prices
as advertised in Monday's News. Just
another example proving that adver¬
tising in the Glendale Evening News
pays.

W. H. CRANE RETURNING

W. H. Crane, secretary of the Glen¬
dale Merchants’ association, who has
been visiting in Michigan since Sep¬
tember 1, will arrive in San Fran¬
cisco tomorrow, where his son, who
has been serving as secretary of the
association, will meet him. Mr. Crane
will reach Glendale the latter part
of this week.

WOMEN’S FREDERICKS CLUB

The Glendale auxiliary of the Wo¬
men’s Fredericks Campaign club will
hold a meeting at the home of Mrs.
John Robert White, Jr., 101 South
Orange street, Glendale, Wednesday
afternoon, October 21, at 3 o’clock.
Ladies from Eagle Rock, Tropico,
Casa Verdugo, Burbank and Glendale
are cordially invited to come and
bring their friends. Mrs. O. P. Clark,
Mrs. Baurhyte and Mrs. Calvin Hart¬
well will be the speakers.

PRICHARD FUNERAL TOMORROW

The funeral of Mrs. Elizabeth Pri¬
chard will be held from her late resi¬
dence, 144 South Isabel street, tomor¬
row afternoon at 2 p. m. Interment
will be made at Evergreen cemetery.

FUNERAL SERVICES AT WEST
GLENDALE CHURCH

The funeral services of Mrs. Rosal-
va Croasdale will be held from the
West Glendale M. E. church at 2
p. m. Saturday, Oct. 24, instead of
at the Pulliam undertaking parlors,
as reported in Monday’s News.

Many make a habit of trifling with
and neglecting opportunities. And
yet they wonder why they do not
succeed in life.

In addition to the speakers already
announced to speak tonight at the
high school auditorium, Mr. Rich¬
ardson D. White, supervising princi¬
pal of the Glendale schools, will
speak on amendment No. 10, which
vitally affects our schools, and should
interest all parents and others who
have the welfare of the children at
heart. Mr. White is prepared to give
to the exact figure how Glendale will
be affected if this act is passed.

The other speakers, as previously
announced, will be Mr. Frederick
Baker, Mr. Seward Simons and Mrs.
Estelle Lawton Lindsey, who will dis¬
cuss respectively amendments relat¬
ing to municipal charters and utili¬
ties; consolidation of city and county
and the “red light abatement” act,
and qualification of voters at bond
elections.

Everyone, whether affiliated with
P. T. A. work or not, is cordially in¬
vited to attend this meeting, which
will open promptly at 8 p. m., and
will be of interest throughout

Mrs. J. F. Padelford, vice-presi¬
dent Glendale Federation of Parent-
Teacher associations, will preside.

BIRTHDAY PARTY FOR MISS OF
NINE YEARS

The home of Mr. and Mrs. C. W.
Berry, 1437 West Third street, was
the scene of a very pretty little party
last Friday afternoon, October 16th,
when in recognition of the ninth
birthday of their little daughter Pau¬
line, a bevy of fair young damsels
gathered together to enjoy the frolic
and fun that usually prevails upon
such festive occasions.

Chrysanthemums of yellow and
white were massed together in rio¬
tous profusion throughout the home
and in the center of the tea party
table, above which a floral dome was
suspended from the ceiling.

Twirled from this were festoons of
yellow and white ribbon that formed
a canopy from the chandelier to the
head of each set place, where cun¬
ning favors and cards held covers for
Geraldine Pearson, Anna Merriken,
Beatrice Bowlen, Marjorie Yarick,
Isabelle Franklin, Eula Stevenson,
Ruth Elliott, Iva Hunter and the lit¬
tle honoree, Pauline Berry.

A candle-adorned cake, together
with numerous beautiful gifts, were
features of the afternoon.

Mrs. Berry was assisted in enter¬
taining the little ladies by her moth¬
er, Mrs. A. C. Berry.

ANNOUNCEMENT

The West Glendale Parent-Teacher
association will hold their regular
monthly meeting at the West Glen¬
dale school Thursday afternoon at
3:15 o’clock sharp. Mrs. Marshall
Heath, president of the counsel of
presidents of the Los Angeles Fed¬
eration, who is an important worker
in the Parent-Teacher associations of
Los Angeles, will give the principal
address of the afternoon. Important
business will also be transacted and
it is hoped that all those who are
interested in the work of the school
will be present. Refreshments will
be served as usual.

FREE TO ALL PARTIES

Representatives of all political par¬
ties are to a reasonable degree al¬
lowed the freedom of the columns
of the Evening News. The publisher
of The News is not narrow from the
effects of being a chronic, political,
hide-bound politician. A reasonable
discussion of questions will tend to
educate persons to a better under¬
standing of the questions under con¬
sideration. An exchange of ideas
leads to still greater intelligence.

RECEIVE LETTER FROM FORMER
GLENDALE RESIDENTS

Mrs. Robert H. Morris of 336
Everett street recently received a
most interesting letter from Mrs. J.
H. Wells, who with her daughter
has been spending the summer
abroad. They visited Mr. and Mrs.
E. W. Pack and the Misses Penn,
formerly of Glendale, while in Eng¬
land, and have greatly enjoyed the
many beautiful places they have
seen.

Mrs. Wells also writes with much
appreciation of the hospitality of the
English people she has met. While
on the continent Mrs. Wells and her
daughter had some exciting experi¬
ences during the mobilization of the
troops, but were fortunate' in being
among the last to leave for England
with their baggage intact. They
sailed for New York on the seventh
inst., expecting to go at once to join
Mr. Wells and James, Jr., at Bald¬
win, Florida.

THE LAND OF PRETTY SOON

BABY PICTURE TIME !

Published Daily Except Sunday
A. T. Cowan, Publisher and Prop.

1 know of a land where the streets
are paved

With the things which we meant
to achieve;

It is walled with the money we meant
to have saved

And the pleasures for which we
grieve.

The kind words unspoken, the prom¬
ises broken,

And many a coveted boom—

Are stowed away there in that land
somewhere—

The land of “Pretty Soon.”

There are uncut jewels of possible
fame

Lying about in the dust.

And many a noble and lofty aim

Covered with mold and rust.

And, Oh, this place, while it seems
so near.

Is farther away than the moon,

Though our purpose is fair, yet we
never get there—

To the land of “Pretty Soon.”

The road that leads to the mystic
land

Is strewn with, pitiful wrecks,

And the ships that have sailed for its
shining strand

Bear skeletons on their decks.

It is farther at noon than it was at
dawn,

And further at night than at noon.

Oh, let us beware of that land down
there—

I The land of “Pretty Soon.”

—Ella Wheeler Wilcox.

A gentleman, while at a club in
Washington a short while ago, be¬
came engaged in a desultory conver¬
sation with a prominent financier and
representative from the South. The
great man is of a most economical
habit, and it is difficult for him to
talk for any great length of time
without touching upon the subject
of economy. Sure enough, he sud-
dently invited attention to the suit
of clothes he was wearing.

“I have never believed,” said he,
opening his coat the better to display
the details of the suit, “in paying
fancy prices for cut-to-measure gar¬
ments. Now, here is a suit for which
I paid $8.98. Appearances are very
deceptive. If I told you I purchased
it for $35, you’d undoubtedly believe
that to be the truth.''

His friend viewed the suit critical¬
ly for a moment as he replied: “I
would if you told me over the tele¬
phone.”—Harper’s Magazine.

With everybody in California doing
a little beautifying, the grand aggre¬
gate will make this state by far the
most beautiful region under the can¬
opy. Nature has done the greater
part of the beautifying and grandeur-
ing. Man’s chief work is to help Na¬
ture do her own beautifying and to
remove any mars to natural beauty
he may have made.

Detective (investigating case in

—“Who arrives at the office first in

Office Boy—“Sometimes one, some¬
times the other, sir.”

Detective—“Can you give me any
information by which I can discover
on what day Mr. Jones is likely to
arrive first?”

Office Boy—“Well, sir, at first he
was always last, but later he began
to get earlier, till at last he was first,
though before he had always been
behind. He soon got later again,
though of late he has been sooner,,
and at last he got behind as before.
But I expect he’ll be getting earlier
sooner or later.”

ANOTHER MOTOR ROA1) INTO
THE YOSEMITE

5 OR O LB. IRONS $3.30
HOTPOINT APPLIANCES
Everything Electrical—Fixtures and Wiling

A little more than a year ago it
became necessary for the secretary
of the interior at Washington to enter
upon an explanation of his reason
for rescinding an order prohibiting
the driving of automobiles through
Yosemite national park. It became
necessary because quite a number of
people were saying that the admis¬
sion of the automobile to the park
would destroy the glamour of ro¬
mance shed throughout the beautiful
valley by the stage coach. The sec¬
retary held that the motor car had
come to stay and that to close the
park against it would be as absurd
as was the fight made for many
years by ultra-conservatives against
the introduction of steam into the
navy.

His act and his view were both
upheld by popular opinion, and it is
illustrative of the speed at which we
are traveling away from old ways of
thinking and of doing, that a third
road for the accommodation of mo¬
torists visiting the Yosemite valley
has just been opened. A little more
than a year ago the visitor transport¬
ed by automobile to the park, had to
leave his vehicle on the outside if he
wished to go in himself. Now he
can approach and enter the magnifi¬
cent reservation by three roads, can
explore practically the entire park
and can leave by the road he came
in or by either of the other two. Of
course, there are certain rules, but
these are only such as will be cheer¬
fully complied with by the great ma¬
jority of automobilists who shall take
advantage of the park privileges.

The last of the three roads to be
completed and opened to travel is
known as the Big Oak flat. Its ap¬
proach is over a highway constructed
by a private turnpike company, and
this has-been so improved that many
of its curves and sharp turns have
been eliminated, the government
meeting part of the cost. The mo¬
torist may now, it is announced, con¬
tinue right into the valley after leav¬
ing Crockers without being compelled
to turn off to the Coulterville road at
Crane’s flat. The Coulterville and
Wawona roads afford opportunity for
those who do not care to travel twice
over the same route.

There will be much motoring, it is
fair to presume, between the Yellow¬
stone, the Glacier and the Yosemite
national parks next year. The pro¬
hibition order would most assuredly
have kept great numbers of motor¬
ists out of the Pacific West during
the Panama-Pacific exposition period.
San Francisco and California, there¬
fore, are to be congratulated on the
adoption of the more liberal policy by
Secretary Lane, as they are to be ap¬
plauded for the wisdom they exercise
in publishing the more agreeable fact
to the world.

THERE ARE MANY

REASONS WHY

Mr. and Mrs. O. W. Tarr of 861
Glendale avenue entertained as din¬
ner guests in their home last Sunday
the Rev. and Mrs. C. W. Tarr of Los

Betty, a bright little five-year-old,
was a born gossip. It was her cus¬
tom as soon as she arrived at her
grandmother’s to say:

"Come into the kithen, g’ma. I’ve
got a lot to tell you.”

And she generally had, being
blessed with three popular grown-up
sisters.

One day, however, she came in
looking despondent.

"Any news, Betty?” inquired her
grandmother.

"Not much,” said Betty soberly.

HIS MOTHER’S ADVICE

An unique spectacle was seen in
the supreme court in Brooklyn when
Dr. Joseph Hand, a helpless paraly¬
tic, pleaded from the witness stand
for a divorce for his wife. With his
wife hiding her face in her hands
and sobbing, Dr. Hand told the court
she should have her freedom. "I
should never have married her," he

INTER-CITY COMMISSION RECOMMENDATIONS

San Gabriel Valley Organization Issues Report on Intricate and Important Amendments and Legisla¬
tive Measures to be Voted on at November 3 Election and Makes Recommendations

Many who are appaled at the com¬
plicated nature of the ballot to be
presented to the voters of California
in November will be pleased to read
the following recommendations pre¬
sented by a committee of which Se¬
ward C. Simons of South Pasadena is
secretary.

The San Gabriel Valley Inter-City
Commission was formed for the pur¬
pose of co-operation between the dif¬
ferent communities wherever a num¬
ber of communities were affected.
In view of the fact that a number ol
the measures coming up at the No¬
vember election vitally affect the in¬
terests of smaller communities, this
commission met and mate a careful
and impartial study of the measures
and submit their recommendations.

The commission represents Pasa¬
dena, South Pasadena, Alhambra,
Monrovia, San Gabriel and Lamanda
Park. The report is signed by Will¬
iam Hazlett, Elwood J. Thorne, C. P.
Dorland and Seward C. Simons.

NO. 1 ON THE BALLOT. “CALL¬
ING CONVENTION FOR REVISION
OF CONSTITUTION.” There is need
for a new constitution, but the pro
visions of our present state constitu¬
tion relating to the selection of dele¬
gates to a constitutional convention,
which provide for the selection by
partisan choice, might result in a
very unsatisfactory convention and a
partisan report and proposed consti¬
tution. VOTE “NO.”

PROPOSITION NO. 12. “CON¬
STITUTIONAL CONVENTIONS,” is
a proposed amendment to the consti¬
tution providing that delegates to a
constitutional convention shall be se¬
lected at a non-partisan primary elec¬
tion. This is designed to dispose of
the objection to the method of select¬
ing delegates to the constitutional
convention which lie to the present
method of selection, and therefore
this provision should carry, and the
vote should be “YES” upon proposi¬
tion No. 12.

NO. 2. “PROHIBITION.” This is
a proposed amendment to the consti¬
tution prohibiting the manufacture,
sale or giving away or the transpor¬
tation within or into the state of in¬
toxicating liquors, except for medici¬
nal, scientific, mechanical or sacra¬
mental purposes. It permits any citi¬
zen to make complaint of known vio¬
lations. The committee makes no
recommendation in regard to this
proposed amendment, for the reason
that the resolution of the Inter-City
Commission appointing the commit¬
tee, expressly instructed it to make
no recommendations on this subject.
In justice to themselves, however,
the members of the committee state
that they personally favor the adop¬
tion of the amendment.

PROPOSITION NO. 39. “SUSPEN¬
SION OF PROHIBITION AMEND¬
MENT,” provides that in the event
proposition No. 2 for prohibition
shall carry, that its provisions shall
not take effect regarding the sale of.
liquor in the state until February
15th, 1915, and as to shipping liquor
out of the state not until January 1st,
1916. This gives those who have
money invested, or who are engaged
in the liquor business, time to with¬
draw, if proposition No. 2 carries,
and enables those who are engaged
in grape culture to dispose of this
year’s crop. VOTE “YES.”

PROPOSITION NO. 47. “PROHI¬
BITION ELECTIONS.” This amend¬
ment is unfair and misleading. It
provides (amongst other things) that
the vote of any city or county, or
district, upon the question of state
prohibition shall determine whether
that city or county or district shall
be “wet” or “dry,” within its own
limits. It repeals existing laws regu¬
lating the liquor traffic. It also pro¬
vides that if any political subdivision
shall vote “wet,” either on the pro¬
hibition amendment, or at any other
election, no subsequent election upon
the subject shall be held within eight
years, while if it votes “dry,” it shall
be considered “non-licensed” terri¬
tory, but this provision does not state

that liquors shall not be sold in such
“non-licensed” territory. Also it does
not prohibit the question again being
voted upon, in the latter circum¬
stances, at ANY election, without
waiting eight years. The proposed
amendment is full of other “jokers”
and evidently was not framed in good
faith. VOTE “NO.”

NO. 3. “EIGHT-HOUR LAW.”
While founded on a correct theory,
this law is too broad in its applica¬
tion, and in its present form would
seriously hamper some important in¬
dustries and the labor connected
therewith. VOTE “NO.”

NO. 4. “ABATEMENT OF NUI¬
SANCES.” This “red light abate¬
ment act” is moulded upon statutes
of other states which have worked
successfully. This act makes owners
of the buildings and promoters of
vice therein amenable to the law and
not alone those caught in police
raids. It permits any citizen to
bring an action of injunction pro¬
hibiting the use of the building for
such purposes and enjoining the own¬
er and occupant from engaging in
such business. VOTE “YES.”

NO. 5. “INVESTMENT COMPA¬
NIES ACT.” This act is designed to
fill a pressing need for the proper
control of corporations. While cum¬
bersome in form, the committee be¬
lieves that it should be adopted, and
if, in its workings it is found that
changes should be made, it may be
amended by the legislature. VOTE
“YES.”

NO. 6. "WATER COMMISSION
ACT.” This creates a water com¬
mission with powers 'Similar to those
of the railroad commission and is
designed to better protect the people
in the appropriation, use and control
of the waters of the state, and is a
meritorious act. VOTE “YES.”

NO. 7. “LOCAL TAXATION EX¬
EMPTION.” This is known as the
“home rule in taxation” amendment,
and would give any county, city or
town power to exempt from taxation
for local purposes improvements on
or over land and any personal prop¬
erty except franchises. This would
be an experiment in taxation. The
majority of the committee recom¬
mends a favorable vote.

NO. 8. “EXEMPTING VESSELS
FROM TAXATION.” This is de¬
signed to encourage shipping on the
high seas to and from our California
ports and is a meritorious act. VOTE
"YES.”

NO. 9. “REGULATING INVEST¬
MENT COMPANIES.” This is a mea¬
sure proposed by certain corporations
and conflicts with, and would make
ineffective proposition No. 5, recom¬
mended by the committee. VOTE
“NO.”

NO. 10. “ABOLITION OF POLL
TAX.” This measure proposes that
no poll tax shall be collected. If
adopted a large class of our people,
including unnaturalized foreigners,
will pay no taxes although receiving
the benefits of our government.
VOTE “NO.”

NO. 11. “UNIVERSITY OF CALI¬
FORNIA BUILDING BOND ACT.”
This provides for a state bond issue
of $1,800,000 for the construction of
buildings and adding to the beauty
and efficiency of the state university
plant at Berkeley. Our state univer¬
sity needs this money. VOTE “YES.”

NO. 12. “CONSTITUTIONAL
CONVENTIONS.” Has been dis¬
cussed in connection with proposition
No. 1. VOTE “YES.”

NO. 13. “QUALIFICATION OF
VOTERS AT BOND ELECTIONS.”
This initiative proposition provides
that no elector shall vote on the ques¬
tion of incurring bonded indebted¬
ness UNLESS A TAXPAYER, and in
theory, instead of being advanced
legislation, in returning to the rule
of property, this is retrogression to a
system of government long since

abandoned, and would be class legis¬
lation. It would disqualify from vot¬
ing upon such questions at least 75%
of women voters. VOTE “NO.”

NO. 14. “VOTING BY ABSENT
ELECTORS.” This provides a meth¬
od whereby those away from home on
election day may vote and send their
ballot by mail. It is dangerous in
that it is not sufficiently safeguarded
by restrictions. It would complicate
the election machinery. VOTE “NO.”

NO. 15. “DEPOSIT OF PUBLIC
MONEYS.” This measure proposes'
that bonds of SURETY COMPANIES
may be put up as security for deposit
of public moneys and changes the
present law to that extent. There is
no necessity for such act and it is
unsafe. VOTE “NO.”

NO. 16. “CONDEMNATION FOR
PUBLIC PURPOSES.” This mea¬
sure, sometimes called “the excess
condemnation amendment,” enlarges
the powers of the state or any county
or municipality in condemning prop¬
erty for public purposes for future
use. This is meritorious. VOTE
“YES.”

NO. 17. “EXPOSITION CONTRI¬
BUTION BY ALAMEDA COUNTY.”
This proposed amendment will PER¬
MIT Alameda county to vote bonds,
payable by taxes and assessed in that
county only, in aid of the San Fran¬
cisco exposition. The state at large
has no direct financial interest in
this. VOTE “YES.”

NO. 18. “NON-SALE OF GAME.”
This act throws greater protection
about the game of the state and will
prevent the slaughter of game for
sale upon the markets. VOTE “YES.”

NO. 19. “CONSOLIDATION OF
CITY AND COUNTY, AND LIMITED
ANNEXATION OF CONTIGUOUS
TERRITORY.” This amendment car¬
ries a fundamental change in the
existing law of the state, in provid¬
ing for the assumption of bonded
indebtedness, in cases of annexation,
by a simple majority vote at any
election instead of a two-thirds vote,
as now required. The existing safe¬
guards are proper, and conform to
the general practice elsewhere. More¬
over, in the formation of a consoli¬
dated city and county government,
the smaller cities or unincorporated
territory proposed to be annexed, do
not have a chance to vote directly
and separately on whether they shall
join the larger city; they have no
voice in framing the charter by which
they would be governed, and practi¬
cally no say as to what district shall
be added. The measure is full of
danger to the “outside” communi¬
ties. There are ample laws already
covering annexation when both com¬
munities desire. The alleged econ¬
omies which have been urged as the
excuse for this measure can be and
are being obtained under existing law
without territorial change. There
are a number of things which make
this measure in the opinion of many
unbiased business men undesirable
for Los Angeles, as well as the small¬
er cities. VOTE “NO.”

NO. 20. "PRIZE-FIGHTS.” Pro¬
hibiting prize-fights, but permitting
four-round amateur boxing exhibi¬
tions, unless prohibited by ordinance.
This prohibits brutal prize-fights, but
allows clean, fair sport. VOTE
“YES.”

NO. 21. “CITY AND COUNTY
CONSOLIDATION AND ANNEXA¬
TION WITH CONSENT OF AN¬
NEXED TERRITORY.” This pro¬
posed amendment is almost identical
with No. 19, and is equally vicious.
VOTE “NO.”

NO. 22. “LAND TITLE LAW.”
This proposed act, known as the
“Torrens law,” gives the owner of
real estate the option of obtaining
certificates of title through the pres¬
ent title company method, or of hav¬
ing his title registered by the county
recorder and insured by thd state.
It is not compulsory. VOTE “YES.”

NO. 23. “ELECTIONS BY PLU¬
RALITY, PREFERENTIAL VOTE,
AND PRIMARY.” The preferential
ballot system has been tried out suc¬
cessfully in other places, and as this
measure applies only to local non¬
partisan elections, and is permissive,
not compulsory, it seems to be meri¬
torious. VOTE “YES.”

NO. 24. “ASSEMBLY PAYROLL
EXPENSES.” There seems to be no
pressing need for the spending of
more money by the legislature or
changing the present arrangements.
VOTE “NO.”

NO. 25. “ADOPTION AND
AMENDMENT OF MUNICIPAL
CHARTERS.” This simplifies the
procedure for the adoption of a free¬
holders’ charter by a municipality.
It permits the grant of general pow¬
ers to any city of more than 3500
population. VOTE “YES.”

NO. 26. “LEGISLATIVE CON¬
TROL OF IRRIGATION, RECLAMA¬
TION AND DRAINAGE DISTRICTS.”
The legislature now has no right to
supervise or control such districts.
This would grant the legislature such
right and would be an added protec¬
tion to our citizens in such districts.
VOTE “YES.”

NO. 27. “COUNTY CHARTERS.”
This amendment facilitates the doing
away with the duplication of certain
city and county officials without ter¬
ritorial change. VOTE “YES.”

NO. 28. “REGULATION OF PUB¬
LIC UTILITIES.” This changes the
present law so that cities having once
so voted lose control of their public
utilities to the railroad commission
and cannot regain this control. This
might put the city at the mercy of a
bad railroad commission without re¬
course. VOTE “NO.”

NO. 29. “INCORPORATION OF
MUNICIPALITIES.” This proposed
amendment is related to No. 27, af¬
fecting cities as that affects counties.
It is in the interest of economy.
VOTE “YES.”

NO. 30. “IRRIGATION DIS¬
TRICTS CONTROLLING INTERNA¬
TIONAL WATER SYSTEMS.” This
amendment concerns Imperial valley
and its gigantic irrigation system
only. It seems to be a measure for
protection and facilitates handling
water and water rights in this valley.
VOTE “YES.”

NO. 31. “VALUATION OF CON¬
DEMNED PUBLIC UTILITIES BY
RAILROAD COMMISSION.” This
proposed amendment clarifies the ex¬
isting law permitting cities to have
their public utilities valued by the
railroad commission in case of con¬
demnation and when they so desire.
VOTE “YES.”

NO. 32. “ELECTION OF UNITED
STATES SENATORS.” If carried,
makes possible the railroading of a
good governor into another office,
leaving a weak or bad lieutenant-
governor ill his place. VOTE “NO.”

NO. 33. “PUBLIC UTILITIES IN
MUNICIPALITIES.” This act is de¬
signed to permit municipalities ope¬
rating public utilities to extend their
operations into other municipalities
operating like utilities, and in com¬
petition with such other cities within
their own boundaries. VOTE “NO.”

NO. 34. “TAXATION OF PUBLIC
PROPERTY.” This provides for the
taxation of lands held by municipali¬
ties outside of their boundaries. This
is just. VOTE “YES.”

NO. 35. “SACRAMENTO STATE
BUILDING BONDS.” This state
needs adequate buildings in which to
conduct its affairs. VOTE FOR THE
BONDS.

NO. 36. “SAN FRANCISCO STATE
BUILDING ACT.” Our information
is that the state does not need addi¬
tional buildings in San Francisco.
VOTE AGAINST THE BONDS.

NO. 37. “STATE FAIR GROUNDS
BONDS.” This is to provide for the
issuance of state bonds, $750,000, for
improvement of state fair grounds at
Sacramento. Our information is that
the amount of money asked for is
excessive and the proposition should
be voted • down. VOTE AGAINST
THE BONDS.

NO. 38. “LOS ANGELES STATE
BUILDING BONDS.” This act pro¬
vides for the issuance of $1,250,000
oi state bonds for erection and equip¬
ment of a state building in Los An¬
geles. This building is needed. VOTE
FOR THE BONDS.

NO. 39. “SUSPENSION OF PRO¬
HIBITION AMENDMENT.” This is
discussed in connection with proposi¬
tion No. 2. VOTE “YES.”

NO. 40. “EXTRA SESSIONS OF
DISTRICT COURTS OF APPEAL.”
This proposition is objectionable for
the reason that anyone of five of¬
ficials may call such extra sessions
and there is no great need at this
time therefor. VOTE “NO.”

NO. 41. “MISCARRIAGE OF JUS¬
TICE.” This proposed amendment
is designed to PREVENT, reversals
by the appellate courts in civil ac¬
tions because of mere technicalities
unless injustice has been done. This
amendment is meritorious. VOTE
“YES.”

NO. 42 “PLACE OF PAYMENT
OF BONDS AND INTEREST.” This
is designed to permit bonds to be
made payable in foreign countries,
thereby facilitating their sale. VOTE
“YES.”

NO. 43. ‘’EXEMPTING EDUCA¬
TIONAL INSTITUTIONS FROM
TAXATION.” California is the only
state which does not already do this.
VOTE “YES.”

NO. 44. “MINIMUM WAGE.” Au¬
thorizes the legislature to provide
for the establishment of minimum
wage for women and children in or¬
der that a fair and living wage shall
be paid to them when required to
work for wages. This amendment
contemplates the fixing of the mini¬
mum wage for different occupations
by the state welfare commission. The
proposition is meritorious. VOTE
“YES.”

NO. 45. “ONE DAY OF REST IN
SEVEN.” This is known as the
“Sunday rest law” and carries so
many exemptions as to render the
law almost a farce. This appears to
be class legislation. VOTE “NO.”

NO. 46. “DRUGLESS PRACTICE.”
This initiative measure creates a
state board of examiners for drug¬
less physicians and fixes the qualifi¬
cations for practice as such. The
committee recognizes that the exist¬
ing law is not in all respects equi¬
table, but this proposed law would
lower the standards for admission to
the practice of medicine and while
admitting some worthy practitioners,
would open the door to quacks.
VOTE “NO.”

NO. 47. “PROHIBITION ELEC¬
TIONS.” This initiative measure is
discussed In connection with proposi¬
tion No. 2. VOTE “NO.”

NO. 48. “BONDS FOR IMPROVE¬
MENT OF SAN FRANCISCO HAR¬
BOR.” This measure provides for
issuance and sale of state bonds for
payment of indebtedness to be in¬
curred by the board of state harbor
commissioners for improvement of
the harbor at San Francisco, in an
amount not to exceed $10,000,000,
the bonds and interest to be paid
from the revenue derived from the
harbor, but the credit of the state is
pledged as security. This bond issue
was asked for by the state harbor
commission. The measure was re¬
ferred to popular vote or the legisla¬
ture. The improvement is needed.
VOTE FOR BONDS.
