Go to the big benefit for the ex- plosion sufferers. They need the money. Mayor Harper has notified bonds of departments thai efficient service is e X . peeted from all city employes, and b severe policy of dealing with former favorites may result in this and similar cases where the public's interest suf- fers. Miss Qleason as secretary made tl<M report which suffered a pocket veto, and Information having reached the mayor to i his effect he sent for the young woman yesterday to learn the facts first hand. One of the last official acts of retir- ing President Trueworthy was t.> sup- press a report which showed that Miss Qleason was no) responsible for this error, the blame being divided between tWO other persons who happened to be adherents of the Lununis administra- tion. Miss Pearl Oleason, secretary to the board of dire lots of the public library in. l principal of the flnan 1.-partmen' of the library, had an hour's conference With Mayor Harper yesterday. This move Is but another In the long pending controversy In the library, With the nomtng of Directors Dock- welter and O'Melveny by Mayor Harpwr the situation was changed somewhat, IMre, tor TrueWOrthy having been rated as siding with the Lummls administra- tion, of which Dookweiler is also \u25a0 strenuous supporter. Miss Qleason, It Is said, has incurred the enmity .•;' some of the Dockweller appointees In the library, which enmity has shown Itself in efforts to hamper her work. The most recent example has been the Shifting of blame for the pay- ment twice of an order for books to a San Francisco man through an allegod faulty system of accounting. Joe Markhnm was arrested several days ago In company with a woman. Hazel Bailey. Both were book, il on a charge of vagrancy, When searched .it the police station a fine diamond ring was found In Markham's pocket. Yesterday the Bailey woman was re- leased. When she was leaving the sta- tion Markham asked permission to give the woman a package. Ills re- quesi was granted and a small paper bundle was handed her. When the Bailey woman reached the corridor she was stopped by detectives and the package opened. In it was found live diamond rings of a total value of about $160. The rings were turned over to the property clerk and the detectives are now endeavoring to learn where Mnrk- ham obtained th. in, it is thought they maj be part of the loot obtained In some house robbery, Through B small package handed to n discharged woman prisoner by a man still confined In the city jail, the po- lice have gained what they consider A i lew to the pi !]'\u25a0\u25a0 rators of one and perhaps mote of lira recent robberies in Los Angeles, Hobsnn ought to be satisfied now; two more powerful warships arc or- dered built. As an evidence of the prodigious present demand for railway ties, and of the vastly greater future requirement, it is stated that the railways of this country use 110,000,000 new ties every year, it is said that the Pennsylvania Railroad company alone pays more than $5,000,000 per year for ties. An obvious need In Southern I'allfor- nla cultivation is greater variety of products. The growing of citrus fruits has been so attractive nnd so profit* able within recent y.ars that other lines of land production have been generally overlooked, To use a familiar country saying, our farmers arc "put- ting too many eggs in one basket." The eucalyptus, for which we aro Ind. bted to Australia, Is quite "at homo" In this climate. The varieties that have been tested here I hardy, thriving from the sc.-.i. and re- quiring no artificial Irrigation or other special .are after the first year. The long and dry summer of this region does not affect them injuriously, as their roots extend downward in tho earth a doei n feel or more In seeking moisture. Nowhere hi the United States nro conditions so favorable for the growth of trees suitable for ties as ttiey are In southern California, Thla because certain varieties of the eucalyptus tret, which make ideal railway tics, grtrff here with aStonllhlng rapidity and in ground that is worthless for other pur« pose?. A few months ago the Santa Fe railway company bought \u25a0 large tract of land In San Diego county for use ln growing eucalyptus trees from which to make railway ties. The purpose Is to l'l.'ii-t a. large acreage every year, and the work already is In progress. Tlio Pennsylvania Railway company, as announced, Is preparing to go ex- tensively into tree planting ns a means of providing ties for the future, and other railway companies are likely to follow (lie example. AA A now departure by rortnin railway companion rail! attention to a great undeveloped resource, of Southern Call- fornln. Tnnt Is the growth of trees suitable for railway ties. It Is shown by statistics that the available timber suitable for ties will bo exhausted In the not far distant future, and there appears to be no hope of finding a fit substitute for wood. ANOTHF.R PROMISING RFSOURC.fi The wonder is how Evelyn Thaw ever had time to do anything but pose for photographs. Fight it out with the Southern Pa- cific. No laying down in the San Pe- dro consolidation. "Who would have thought that T.os Aneglos could be bluffed by the South- ern Pacific so < asily? Los Angeles never has laid down yrt. Will It at the Southern Pacific's orders, and abandon San Pi Iro? Berkeley should be content with her university aid not try to monopolize Sacramento's excuse for being. Los Angeles owes a duty to San Pe- dro which it cannot forego, even at the orders of the Southern Pacific. Berkeley wants the capital. In case It is moved "ill Sacramento sti'l re- main on the map. and if 5... why? It would be folly to wait on the gas company's aiding the victims of the recent explosion: help them yourself. The place to teach and to learn jour- nalism is in a newspaper office. It may be a littleold country weekly or a groat big city daily, and then the man must be born a journalist or tho job will be hopelessly botched. Love your job or leave it. Unless the newspaper man love 3 printer's ink; unless he loves the music of the case: unless he loves the music of the press as it turns out the history of yesterday, all the. col- logos In tho world will never make a journalist of that man. Wishes do not fill the Amo nor turn plums into oranges, to borrow a thought from George Eliot, and neither will a man ln- t. tided for a blacksmith or a tailor move opinion like Swift and Hazlitt. Ritchie and Oreeley, or gather news like the elder Bennett or Joseph Mi dill, or Jo- seph B. McCullaugh, Washington Post. They are talking about founding a college of Journalism in Missouri and Cornell university pretends to graduate journalists every year. Mr. Joseph Pulitzer gave some millions that were to establish a school of journalism In New York. I" you can turn out "jour- nalists" like gloves and grubbing hoes, slate pencils, trace chains, jack knives and other articles necessary to domes- tic economy. It la a great thing for tho noblest of professions. Hut you can no more make a journalist by hand than you can make a poet by hand. Francis Jeffrey, editor of the Edinburgh Re- view, and autocrat of Knglish letters In his day, wrote a most entertaining and, very plausible essay, in which he took the position that Benjamin Franklin 1 would have been a very ordinary man if he had been licked into shape at Harvard college, and we do not be- lieve that Horace Oreeley would have been half the journalist he was had he been bred to the craft in a school of journalism. JOURNALISTS MADE TO ORDER The Cahuenga country is very nice farming land, but as parts of Los An- geles—pause and think before voting on it. &/?e Younger Generation GEO. O. BAKER "Oh, Carlo, how terrible! But could you not have waited to announce It until the dressmaker had given mo my dress?"— ll Motto per Rldere. "My dear wife, I am ruined." The Union Pacific was chartered as an operating company, and it has suc- cessively served the purposes of a hold- ing company and a bank, as well as a transportation concern. Apparently It has now disposed of it-; Immense cash surplus and is In the position of an In- vestment company. It owns the stocks. and the capitalists who sold them now have tho cash. Now nil this Is not necessarily Illegal. But it will Inevita- bly leave a bad taste In the public mouth, It will giv.' aid and encour- agement to the agitation of govern- ment ownership of railroads, of which HV. J. Bryan is the most distinguished exponent -Wall Sin el Journal. Morover, it appears that among the extraordinary stock investments made by the Union Pacific were a number of large purchases from Mr. Harriman, Mr. Rogers and Mr. Stlllman, all three directors of the company. Those gen- tlemen, indeed, did not vote In the board Of directors on the question of those purchases from themselves, and yet in a true sense the "dual" tran- saction Was again brought to the front, :is it was In the insurance investiga- tion, the "dual" transaction consisting of the directors in control acting at the same time as buyers and sellers. Never before, even In all the litera- ture of the Standard Oil, has there ever been spread upon the records such an amazing exhjbit of financial con- centration HS was made in the two-day proceedings at this Inquiry. Various forms of legal procedure were gone through with, but the autocrat was Mr. Harriman, and the board of di- rectors and even the executive com- mittee simply recorded what he willed. Mr. Harrlman's will was shown by a sch f Imperial railroad expansion covering the whole country. Bast and west the creation of a vast continental system reaching from the Atlantic to the Pacific, both north and south. HARRIMAN'S IMPERIALISM He would no more appreciate the ability of his friend to do more than he is dolni than he would the actual dis- play of that ability, for If he has sense, and it is of such people we speak, lie will appreciate the fact that his host does not depend upon ostentation and superfluity to make his guest's visit agreeable, but upon the simplicity of the welcome and thfe good taste with which it is adorned. We are led to these thoughts by a little remark In a newspaper In these words. "Remember that when you i;,, visiting you become a problem." If there were any prob- lem about It. it would be well that tho visitor stayed at home, and If, per- chance, ii should evolve, which one should not be too suspicious about, it would be well If he folded Ins tent. Bui real visits are like going out into the garden and making a bouquet; it is a harmony of color, form an 1 fra- grance, and everybody likes }h,- bou- quet, especially people who love and are sincere.— Ohio state journal. True art always Impresses one that the artist didn't do as well as he might. His creation, as beautiful nnd Inspiring as it is, still gives witness of a force that Is not yet expressed. The beholder or listener is perfectly satisti.'rl because, if absolute perfection were attained, he wouldn't enjoy it; he couldn't. This rule holds true in the ordinary experi- ence of entertaining a friend. There is a lack of extravagance that means sin- cerity, and there is the moderation of hospitality that means a genuine wel- come. A guest who Is Inundated with good things really an excess of. them— knows they are no part of the friend's life which he comes to share.

They knew that In voting the Republican ticket they were vot- ing for the representatives of the very noles that are sleeplessly fighting the public Interests of Los Angeles. ln one or two noteworthy Instances, where the corporations were apprehen- sive of the non-partisan strength, al- leged Democrats were put up by tho Southern Pacific railroad and the Re- publicans rallied to them, just the line. Today the poopi> of Los Angeles are reaping the consequences. Honorable citizens who were sent to Sacramento to present bills looking to the merger with San Pedro have been met with Insults by the Southern Pa- cific's assembly nnd driven out of the state capital by the agents of the rail- roads. President S. A. Butler of the consoli- dation commission, himself a leading Republican, paints this picture: •A» die matter Nttinil* no nrr helpless ln Hie power of the Southern Pacific, What we lire koliiiv to do ationt It.

Ah. ye.= : And The Herald warned and pleaded with our people to no avail: We have been driven by the Southern Pacific railroad and Us assembly to the point of abandoning one of the great- est hopes of Los Angeles— the annexa- tion of San Pedro. We have been driven by the Southern Pacific railroad to accept an Increased tax nf $100,000 \u25a0' year on the buildingof our Owens river water aqueduct by a law Increasing the pay of day laborers to that of skilled mechanics. We are now in the shadow of a com- ing law to put al' harbors under a state commission that will be appointed by the Southern Pacific railroad. We are driven by the Southern Pa- cific railroad's assembly to help pay the city of San Francisco a state appro- priation of $3,000,000 for an alleged world's fair that may never happen. And every enterprise in which Los Angeles Is interested has been or is to bc strangled at Sacramento, at the be- hest of the Southern Pacific railroad, which seeks to still further own and enslave this goodly land. We are even threatened with a law suspending the city charter of Los An- los until tho corporations can es- tablish all i>: \u25a0 tracks and franchises they want and cannot now receive without a measure of adequate com- pensation, Even the Sacramento Union, a Re- publlcan organ at the state capital, confesses tho shame of the situation in an editorial headed "Make Call' fornlu r "For forty yenrN rullfornln him been ii poll tli-til <lrg>i-iiil<-iu-vof (he Southern l I'M.

Mayor Harper has notified bonds ofdepartments thai efficient service is eX.peeted from all city employes, and bsevere policy of dealing with formerfavorites may result in this and similarcases where the public's interest suf-fers.

Miss Qleason as secretary made tl<Mreport which suffered a pocket veto, andInformation having reached the mayorto ihis effect he sent for the youngwoman yesterday tolearn the facts firsthand.

One of the last official acts of retir-ing President Trueworthy was t.> sup-press a report which showed that MissQleason was no) responsible for thiserror, the blame being divided betweentWO other persons who happened to beadherents of the Lununis administra-tion.

Miss Pearl Oleason, secretary to theboard of dire lots of the public libraryin.lprincipal of the flnan 1.-partmen'

of the library, had an hour's conferenceWith Mayor Harper yesterday.

This move Is but another In the longpending controversy In the library,

With the nomtng of Directors Dock-welter and O'Melveny by Mayor Harpwrthe situation was changed somewhat,IMre, tor TrueWOrthy having been ratedas siding with the Lummls administra-tion, of which Dookweiler is also \u25a0strenuous supporter.

Miss Qleason, It Is said, has incurredthe enmity .•;' some of the Dockwellerappointees In the library, which enmityhas shown Itself in efforts to hamperher work. The most recent example hasbeen the Shifting of blame for the pay-ment twice of an order for books to aSan Francisco man through an allegodfaulty system of accounting.

Joe Markhnm was arrested severaldays ago In company with a woman.Hazel Bailey. Both were book, il on acharge of vagrancy, When searched.it the police station a fine diamondring was found In Markham's pocket.Yesterday the Bailey woman was re-leased. When she was leaving the sta-tion Markham asked permission togive the woman a package. Ills re-quesi was granted and a small paperbundle was handed her. When theBailey woman reached the corridorshe was stopped by detectives and thepackage opened. In it was found livediamond rings of a total value of about$160. The rings were turned over to theproperty clerk and the detectives arenow endeavoring to learn where Mnrk-ham obtained th. in, it is thought theymaj be part of the loot obtained Insome house robbery,

Through B small package handed to ndischarged woman prisoner by a manstill confined In the city jail, the po-lice have gained what they consider Ai lew to the pi !]'\u25a0\u25a0 rators of one andperhaps mote of lira recent robberiesin Los Angeles,

Hobsnn ought to be satisfied now;two more powerful warships arc or-dered built.

As an evidence of the prodigiouspresent demand for railway ties, and ofthe vastly greater future requirement,it is stated that the railways of thiscountry use 110,000,000 new ties everyyear, it is said that the PennsylvaniaRailroad company alone pays morethan $5,000,000 per year for ties.

An obvious need In Southern I'allfor-nla cultivation is greater variety ofproducts. The growing of citrus fruitshas been so attractive nnd so profit*able within recent y.ars that otherlines of land production have beengenerally overlooked, To use a familiarcountry saying, our farmers arc "put-

ting too many eggs in one basket."

The eucalyptus, for which we aroInd. bted to Australia, Is quite "athomo" In this climate. The varietiesthat have been tested here Ihardy, thriving from the sc.-.i. and re-quiring no artificial Irrigation or otherspecial .are after the first year. Thelong and dry summer of this region

does not affect them injuriously, astheir roots extend downward in thoearth a doei n feel or more In seekingmoisture.

Nowhere hi the United States nroconditions so favorable for the growthof trees suitable for ties as ttiey areIn southern California, Thla becausecertain varieties of the eucalyptus tret,which make ideal railway tics, grtrffhere with aStonllhlng rapidity and inground that is worthless for other pur«pose?.

A few months ago the Santa Ferailway company bought \u25a0 large tractof land In San Diego county for useln growing eucalyptus trees from whichto make railway ties. The purpose Isto l'l.'ii-t a. large acreage every year,and the work already is In progress.Tlio Pennsylvania Railway company,as announced, Is preparing to go ex-tensively into tree planting ns a meansof providing ties for the future, andother railway companies are likely tofollow (lie example.

AAA now departure by rortnin railwaycompanion rail! attention to a greatundeveloped resource, of Southern Call-fornln. Tnnt Is the growth of treessuitable for railway ties. It Is shownby statistics that the available timbersuitable for ties will bo exhausted Inthe not far distant future, and thereappears to be no hope of finding afit substitute for wood.

The Union Pacific was chartered asan operating company, and it has suc-cessively served the purposes of a hold-ing company and a bank, as well as atransportation concern. Apparently Ithas now disposed of it-;Immense cashsurplus and is In the position of an In-vestment company. It owns the stocks.and the capitalists who sold them nowhave tho cash. Now nil this Is notnecessarily Illegal. But it will Inevita-bly leave a bad taste In the publicmouth, It willgiv.' aid and encour-agement to the agitation of govern-ment ownership of railroads, of whichHV. J. Bryan is the most distinguishedexponent -Wall Sin el Journal.

Morover, it appears that among theextraordinary stock investments madeby the Union Pacific were a number oflarge purchases from Mr. Harriman,Mr. Rogers and Mr. Stlllman, all threedirectors of the company. Those gen-tlemen, indeed, did not vote In theboard Of directors on the question ofthose purchases from themselves, andyet in a true sense the "dual" tran-saction Was again brought to the front,:is it was In the insurance investiga-tion, the "dual" transaction consistingof the directors in control acting at thesame time as buyers and sellers.

Never before, even In all the litera-ture of the Standard Oil, has thereever been spread upon the records suchan amazing exhjbit of financial con-centration HS was made in the two-dayproceedings at this Inquiry. Variousforms of legal procedure were gonethrough with, but the autocrat wasMr. Harriman, and the board of di-rectors and even the executive com-mittee simply recorded what he willed.Mr. Harrlman's will was shown by asch f Imperial railroad expansioncovering the whole country.

HARRIMAN'S IMPERIALISM

He would no more appreciate theabilityof his friend to do more than heis dolni than he would the actual dis-play of that ability, for If he has sense,and it is of such people we speak, liewill appreciate the fact that his hostdoes not depend upon ostentation andsuperfluity to make his guest's visitagreeable, but upon the simplicity ofthe welcome and thfe good taste withwhich it is adorned. We are led tothese thoughts by a little remark In anewspaper In these words. "Rememberthat when you i;,, visiting you becomea problem." If there were any prob-lem about It. it would be well that thovisitor stayed at home, and If, per-chance, ii should evolve, which oneshould not be too suspicious about, itwould be well If he folded Ins tent.Bui real visits are like going out intothe garden and making a bouquet; it isa harmony of color, form an 1 fra-grance, and everybody likes }h,- bou-quet, especially people who love andare sincere.— Ohio state journal.

True art always Impresses one thatthe artist didn't do as well as he might.His creation, as beautiful nnd Inspiringas it is, still gives witness of a forcethat Is not yet expressed. The beholderor listener is perfectly satisti.'rl because,if absolute perfection were attained, he

wouldn't enjoy it; he couldn't. Thisrule holds true in the ordinary experi-ence of entertaining a friend. There isa lack of extravagance that means sin-cerity, and there is the moderation ofhospitality that means a genuine wel-come. A guest who Is Inundated withgood things

—reallyan excess of. them—

knows they are no part of the friend'slife which he comes to share.

Honorable citizens who were sent toSacramento to present bills looking to

We have been driven by the SouthernPacific railroad to accept an Increasedtax nf $100,000 \u25a0' year on the buildingof

our Owens river water aqueduct by alaw Increasing the pay of daylaborersto that of skilled mechanics.

city of San Francisco a state appro-priation of $3,000,000 for an alleged

And every enterprise in which Los

Angeles Is interested has been or is tobc strangled at Sacramento, at the be-hest of the Southern Pacific railroad,

which seeks to still further own andenslave this goodly land.
