IN SUPPORT OF DIVISION HIGHSCHOOL STUDENT OFFERS CONVINCING ARGUMENT Southern California inadequately represented Upon Supreme and Appellate Court Benches—Legal Questions of Paramount Importance to South—Great Area Makes Government Expensive — Clear Reasoning The highest number of individual points in Friday evening's debate between A.U.H.S. and Poly were awarded Syril Tipton, who argued in the affirmative upon the question, Resolved, That California should be divided into two states. His presentation of his side of the question was complete and convincing. In part he said: The area of the State of California is approximately 155,000 square miles: that is, California is as large as all the New England States, New York and Pennsylvania combined. Consider the indignation and storm of protest that would arise were the residents of Pennsylvania compelled to go to Boston to attend to business necessary to be transacted at their state capitol, or the residents of northern Maine compelled to go to Philadelphia for the same purpose. At present a resident of San Diego requires at least four or five days and the expenditure of from seventy-five to one hundred dollars to visit and transact any business at Sacramento, the capital of the State. If the State were divided and a capitol were built near the center of population the expense incurred by the legislators and those having business to transact at the capital would be reduced at least fifty per cent. Should the southern portion of the State be erecting a new capital it should not be forgotten that there is dissatisfaction in the north with the present location of the capital, and the chances are that a new capitol will soon have to be built whether we secure state division or not. In the last fifteen years there has been but one governor from Southern California—Gov. Gage of Los Angeles. Just as the governors are from the north, so nearly all the other important state officials are from that part of the state. If the state were divided Southern California would have a governor of its own who would fully realize the needs of the south. They would also have men in the minor offices who would be in touch with the conditions in Southern California. As well as a southern governor they would have two national senators and several members of the house of representatives, who would not have to cater to northern politicians and would be able to vote for the interests of Southern California instead of for those of a northern machine. Under state division the political power of any corrupt organization would be weakened because, as the state would be smaller, so the government would be nearer the people. My opponent may say that the power of corrupt organized political bodies, as Tammany in New York, are not a detriment; but certainly the most deteriorating thing in a government is the complete domination of it by some such body. Another important reason for state division is that under such conditions Southern California would obtain a state educational institution. At present Stanford as well as California University are located in the north, while Southern California has no state school but the reform-school at Whittier, to which few desire admittance. The large corporation small ones, just as some smaller ones. It portion the small business doomed. The great difficulty establishing their banks all over the country their own wealth. Why outcome? Let your pivot forward with an answer prove a solution to the Muller does not give I should say: Not good or bad. They are They have organized they have proven the theories in their own way, lem is to have the trusts, and run the nomic good of the presence, if the government beef trust there would for boycotting it; and people would once make now is a luxury. The not come all at once, Willard said, it will process of law. But are forcing these three system of individually forced to leave their labor. Mothers are leave their homes, and forced out as wanderers of the earth, begging master for a job. Mr. Taft says if this not be curbed we will Now, I would like to how long we will have these outrages. Nowject to a change from a collective co-operation would get what he preememment where your man gets it all. ONE WEAK Most Anaheim People present a resident of San Diego requires at least four or five days and the expenditure of from seventy-five to one hundred dollars to visit and transact any business at Sacramento, the capital of the State. If the State were divided and a capitol were built near the center of population the expense incurred by the legislators and those having business to transact at the capital would be reduced at least fifty per cent. Should the southern portion of the State be compelled to pay this exorbitant amount every two years, when by dividing the state, the larger portion of this could be saved? The expense also of holding special sessions of the legislature in case of great catastrophe would be lessened. For example: Had the State been divided before the time of the great earthquake at San Francisco the northern portion could have called their special session and the expense of sending the legislators from the southern counties would have been obviated. An enormous expense is incurred not only by the transportation of the members of the legislature but also by the transportation of the criminals and incompetents to the State institutions. The county of Los Angeles in the year 1905 paid out in round numbers $20,000 for this purpose alone, and this notwithstanding the fact that we have in the south a state hospital to which the insane of this section are sent. Add to this the expenditure by other counties of equal or greater distance from the public institutions and one is startled by the enormous amount involved. My opponents at this point may argue that the southern portion of the State is entitled to a State prison as well as a State asylum. But at what time in the history of California has the north in any way helped the people of the south to obtain their desires or needs? This is not said with the spirit of antagonism but the temper, physical characteristics and commercial differences are so great that it causes this dissention at every session of the legislature. So in the case of the San Pedro project the north continually fought against making San Pedro a government harbor, as it would damage San Francisco trade, and also in the present fight between San Francisco and San Diego for the exposition in 1915. The item of expense as an argument against state division has even less force when applied to the judicial department of the State govern- most deteriorating thing in a government is the complete domination of it by some such body. Another important reason for state division is that under such conditions Southern California would obtain a state educational institution. At present Stanford as well as California University are located in the north, while Southern California has no state school but the reform-school at Whittier, to which few desire admittance. All state institutions are better supported, better equipped, and able to employ more competent men than private ones, except a few with enormous endowments, as Stanford, in our own state, and the University of Chicago in Illinois. Prominent instructors also are more willing to go to a state university than to a private one, because of the prestige which goes with a state institution. As our only state university is in the north all the students who desire to attend must pay the expense of going and also the expense of living away from home. For these reasons many are deprived of their higher education, while if the state were divided and we had our own state university in the south all those desiring such work could obtain it more readily and at a far less expense. At present the influence of the state university is almost lost to Southern California. The influence upon the surrounding people of any large institution grows less and less as the distance from it increases. So the influence which our state institution has upon the people of Southern California is very small compared with its influence on the people of the north. Doubling the number of state institutions would more than double the educational influence. The inspiration of young men and women for a higher education is greatly increased if they are constantly in touch with men of broad culture. We can scarcely realize the advantage to the younger generation of a large state educational institution in their midst. The very presence of large university buildings would be worth their cost as a means of education to the people of Southern California. Then think of the inspiration, courage and future hope that would come to the young people of Southern California through the influence of men of letters, science and invention, as would radiate from a great state educational institution in Southern California. PEOPLE TO OWN TRUSTS So in the case of the San Pedro project the north continually fought against making San Pedro a government harbor, as it would damage San Francisco trade, and also in the present fight between San Francisco and San Diego for the exposition in 1915. The item of expense as an argument against state division has even less force when applied to the judicial department of the State government than when applied to the legislature. The Supreme Court in California consists of 5 judges who sit in Sacramento, San Francisco and Los Angeles in turn, but as the business increases they got so far behind in their work that in 1905 an act was passed creating a court of appeals, which consists of nine judges, three in each of the aforesaid named cities. It is now so arranged that Southern California helps pay the salaries of five Supreme Court judges, who sit in Los Angeles about one fourth of the time, nine judges of the Court of Appeals, who obtained practically the same salary as the judges of the supreme court, from but one-third of whom we obtain any benefit. Is it just that the south should pay their portion of the salaries of five supreme court judges and get only one-fourth their time; that they also pay their portion of the salaries of nine judges of the court of appeals and only obtain the services of three while under state division five supreme court judges could handle the work, so saving annually about $20,000 to the southern part of the state. And in considering the expense of large university buildings would be worth their cost as a means of education to the people of Southern California. Then think of the inspiration, courage and future hope that would come to the young people of Southern California through the influence of men of letters, science and invention, as would radiate from a great state educational institution in Southern California. PEOPLE TO OWN TRUSTS How Mr. Anson Would Solve Economic Problem Anaheim, Jan. 30, 1910. Editor Gazette.—Again I see Comrade Muller has launched forth on the question of economics,a subject which so far as he has gone I think he has handled in a masterly way. I would like to see more such articles, as it is of more importance to every household than anything which could be brought before the people. Not one word have I ever read in any local paper on this subject. What is the reason? What are they afraid of? To tackle the greatest question of the land would, I think, be of more importance than to talk of the extravagance of the idle rich. Next fall there will be another election. What will be the issue? Will it be an issue that will affect the laborer, or the wealthy class? How did the last election affect you? What matter if it be tariff revision up or tariff revision down? We have had some experience now both ways. Under the democrats we had the famous Mills' bill and that proved a failure, and then came the McKinley ANAHEIM GAZETTE bill. And now, what? The large corporations absorb the small ones, just as large fish consume smaller ones. In the same proportion the small business men are doomed. The great trusts are slowly establishing their stores and their banks all over the country to add to their own wealth. What will be the outcome? Let your politicians come forward with an answer. That will prove a solution to the problem. Mr. Muller does not give a remedy. But I should say: Not bust the trust, good or bad. They are a good thing. They have organized a system. They have proven the theory of economics in their own way. But the problem is to have the government own the trusts, and run them for the economic good of the people. For instance, if the government owned the beef trust there would be no grounds for boycotting it; and millions of people would once more enjoy what now is a luxury. These changes cannot come all at once, but as Francis Willard said, it will come by a slow process of law. But the conditions are forcing these things. Under this system of individualism children are forced to leave their schools to seek labor. Mothers are compelled to leave their homes, and fathers are forced out as wanderers upon the face of the earth, begging of a capitalist master for a job. Mr. Taft says if these abuses cannot be curbed we will have socialism. Now, I would like to know, O Lord, how long we will have to submit to these outrages. Now, who would object to a change from individualism to a collective co-operation, where a man would get what he produced or a system where your master practically gets it all. B.

They were used at that time by a member of my family for a weak and aching back and the results were of the best. Whenever we feel any kind of backache coming on, we immediately procure Doan’s Kidney Pills at Mullinix’s drug store and a few doses will bring prompt relief.
