STOP THIS SPEEDING As a result of the speeding of automobiles through the streets of this city, which is of almost daily and nightly occurrence, one man lost his life on Monday afternoon by running his car into a railroad train at the Southern Pacific tracks and two others were very badly injured. According to evidence given by people on the street at the time, two automobile drivers indulged in a race, beginning at the very heart of the city, and terminating with one of the worst smashups ever recorded in the county. The driver of the other car eluded the slowly moving railroad train by turning up Santa Ana street and swiftly running before the oncoming train, which fortunately was moving at a slow rate of speed. While the result of the accident is unfortunate, the escape of the second car seems miraculous, and that more men were not killed seems almost inexplicable. It is time this automobile speeding through the streets of the city were put a stop to. There is scarcely a day or a night that drivers of cars along South Los Angeles street do not break the speed limit, and many of them send their cars at such rates of speed as to make the practice alike dangerous to other travelers and themselves. This is also true of other streets leading into town, according to statements of residents along MR. BRYAN AS A HOT AIR ARTIST Bryan may be safely reckoned upon to say or do the unnecessary and heedless thing. In the midst of much agitation over the German note, he told the Chinese commercial delegates that it was better to endow scholarships for Chinamen with American funds than to build battleships with them. And at a dinner of the Uruguayan delegates to the Pan-American Conference he made a speech saying that if the banks of the United States do not hurry and take advantage of the recent currency act which permits them to establish branch banks in South and Central American countries, the United States government will undertake the transmission of money for our sister republics. Mr. Bryan even went further and suggested that the United States government could underwrite the governments of the South American republics. "I am not a financier" he said, "but I have some very decided ideas concerning finance. I believe that this government profitably could issue bonds to the South American countries at four per cent., take their bonds at three per cent and utilize the other one per cent as a sinking fund for the gradual elimination of the burdensome debts: I believe in establishing branch banks in South American countries. If the lead is not taken by the bankers themselves, then it remains for the United States government to step in." This is exactly the note struck by President Wilson with reference to the merchant marine. The comment is to the effect that in either case the administration cannot hurry American investments by such intimations, but on the contrary its utterances may cause capital to hesitate, in view of New York importing $30,000,000 worth of goods up in ports abroad because commerce restricts made in Germany and importers have appointed Wilson and to deliver goods be released. Many of the men are committee members known of the ways and means congress as advocates trade on goods complying with own manufactures. They and money when they was being framed iniff reductions. But all were framing an important these men were called and were not known as Underwood-Simmons-V gave them about what but a higher power enjoyed enjoyment of the fruity liquity. It looks like them. EXCURSION TO Christian Endeavor than an excursion State Christian Endeavor at San Diego on Saturday and that a rate of $4.00 been secured. If you buy a ticket you can avail yourself opportunity, and for the ticket is good for only will the ticket deavors at this rate but also anyone to go. Quite a number of Endeavorers from Ames. They will leave It is time this automobile speeding through the streets of the city were put a stop to. There is scarcely a day or a night that drivers of cars along South Los Angeles street do not break the speed limit, and many of them send their cars at such rates of speed as to make the practice alike dangerous to other travelers and themselves. This is also true of other streets leading into town, according to statements of residents along these thoroughfares, and the practice has become a disgrace to the city. Even in the center of town automobile drivers pay very little attention to the rights of pedestrians, and we have it on the word of a well known business man that on Sunday night about midnight a driver turned the corner of Center and Los Angeles street on the wrong side of the thoroughfare at a rate which he estimates at not less than 30 miles an hour. This man pulled out on East Center street, so our informant states, at a rate which was probably 50 miles an hour. It is up to the officers of this city to put a stop to this abominable practice. MORE BLUNDERING AT WASHINGTON A study of the war revenue tax discloses some of the most astonishing blunders to be found in the entire legislative record of the present administration. The most elementary principles of law making seem to have been disregarded. In the passage of any special tax measure where the approximate deficit to be met is known, there are four simple requirements that are obvious. It should be determined where the burden of the tax should fall. Based on accurate estimates, the law should produce the amount of revenue needed. The law should be phrased in clear unmistakable terms, admitting of but one construction that will insure a minimum cost of administration, prevent confusion, and avoid useless, expensive litigation. Timely, adequate provision should be made for revenue stamps, blank returns, instructions and all other numerous details entering into the enforcement of such a law. This administration failed on every one of these counts. Under the first essential, that of determining where the burden of the tax shall fall, the democrats floundered REDUCED FREIGHT RATES Reduced refrigeration charges on California citrus fruits and vegetables to markets that will save shippers more than $100,000 annually are offered by the Southern Pacific company effective as soon as the interstate commerce commission gives permission. Timely, adequate provision should be made for revenue stamps, blank returns, instructions and all other numerous details entering into the enforcement of such a law. This administration failed on every one of these counts. Under the first essential, that of determining where the burden of the tax shall fall, the democrats floundered repeatedly. They first announced the plan of increasing the income tax and abandoned it on discovering that financial returns would be delayed for months under that method. Then they turned to a plan of taxing freight receipts. This was discarded with astonishing celerity. Political pressure was too great. After other ineffectual attempts the Spanish war stamp tax was adopted as a basis, giving the country a war tax in time of peace. The second essential was disregarded. Their estimates were inaccurate. Had they been based on facts instead of guess work, we would not now have the treasury deficit as a constant reminder of extravagance and inefficiency. The third essential was disregarded. There are conflicting provisions in the war tax as to when it shall take effect. Other clauses are so obscurely phrased that it has been necessary to appeal to the courts for construction. The fourth essential was disregarded. So inadequate were the provisions for stamps required under the act that business all over the country halted because of inability to comply with the law. Long and annoying controversies arose over penalties for such violations, resulting in needless confusion for which no one but the present administration is to blame. Specific examples of the errors referred to in the war tax law will be discussed in later articles. REDUCED FREIGHT RATES Reduced refrigeration charges on California citrus fruits and vegetables to markets that will save shippers more than $100,000 annually are offered by the Southern Pacific company effective as soon as the interstate commerce commission gives permission. Application has been made by the railroad company, and that the present crop may be moved, special permission is asked to waive the necessity of 30 days notice and to make the rate effective within five days after it has been approved. On vegetables, the old rate of $7.50 per car will be cut to $2.50 and on citrus fruits the drop will be from $7.50 to $5.00. Traffic officials of the Southern Pacific estimate that 40,000 carloads will be affected. At present, the practice is largely to use an empty car without ice for loading purposes and to place the ice in it only after the car has been placed in the train and is just ready to move. Now the shipment will be loaded into an ice cold car and the contents will be under full refrigeration from the moment they leave the packing house or field. Thus the arrival of California fruit and vegetables in the eastern market in excellent condition is assured; and, as the expense to the shipper is so nominal, he will reap the advantage of a better profit for his product. Hey there, your fellows! Have you your money to pay war taxes in time of profound peace? Fritz Yungbluth reports a good trade during his removal sale, people coming from all points of the county to get some of the bargains he is offering.

LARGE IMPORTS PREVENTED New York importing firms have $30,000,000 worth of merchandise tied up in ports abroad because of the British commerce restrictions on goods made in Germany and Austria. These importers have appointed a committee to take up the matter with President Wilson and to demand that these goods be released. Many of the men appearing on this committee are known to the members of the ways and means committee of congress as advocates of near free trade on goods competing with our own manufactures. They spent time and money when the Underwood law was being framed in lobbying for tariff reductions. But as the Democrats were framing an importers' tariff law, these men were called in as advisors, and were not known as lobbyists. The Underwood-Simmons-Wilson tariff law gave them about what they wanted, but a higher power is delaying their enjoyment of the fruits of their iniquity. It looks like a judgment on them. EXCURSION TO SAN DIEGO Christian Endeavorers will take note than an excursion will run to the State Christian Endeavor convention at San Diego on Saturday, June 26, and that a rate of $4.00 round trip has been secured.

EDUCATION OF THE CHILD Prof. E.W.Hauck Delivers an Address at Garden Grove Prof. E.W.Hauck delivered an address at the M.E. church at Garden Grove on Sunday evening, June 13, on the Home in the Education of the Child. Among other things he said in part: "Education is the training of the child for life, and the home, the school and the church have a part to perform. It is our high ideals for our children that makes the problem so great. All parents want their children to be the best and most successful that it is possible for them to be made. The home cannot turn over to the school some of the work which the homes alone can do to best advantage. The kindergarten system is the result of the attempt to systematize mother love and apply it in the natural activities of the child. "It has become necessary for the school to undertake some of the work of education which belongs properly to the home. Boys and girls under the jurisdiction of the schools are taught some of the practical lessons which should be learned. Many parents willingly pass the problems which the home should solve up to the school." The responsibility of the street, was also arrested by Officer Gunnett for speeding his machine on the same thoroughfare. Mrs. Bob Johnston and Miss Cernon, matron of the sanitarium, left Tuesday morning for San Pedro, where they boarded the steamship Harvard en route for San Francisco. They will spend a couple of weeks seeing the sights at the exposition. Mrs. Nancy Sandt and Miss Lulu Cline, of Indianapolis, Ind., arrived here Tuesday on a visit to E.R.Barmes and family.

Prof. E.W.Hauck has again been honored by an educational institution. Last week Pomona college conferred upon him the degree of Master of Arts. Only a month ago Dr.Hauck was made a Doctor of Philosophy by an eastern college. C.H.Field left last night for Chicago where he expects to visit old friends for some time. He will also go to Syracuse, New York, and attend the reunion of his old regiment, the 122d New York infantry. He will be absent three months. J.H.Scales and M.A.Williams, riding a motorcycle, collided with a buggy on Orangethorpe avenue Sunday night, and each received a broken leg. An ambulance was sent out from Fulerton and they were taken to the hospital for treatment. The buggy was considerably damaged, but the driver was unhurt. The injured men claim the buggy carried no lights. Howard Krause is developing ability as an orator. Recently in the tryouts at Pomona college he was chosen to represent that institution in the intercollegiate contest, notwithstanding the fact that he is only a sophomore. In the contest he won second place, the U.S.C.representative getting first. Universal peace was the subject of the prators, Howard's text being "Patriotism of Peace." The Socialist party of Orange county will give a basket dinner at Berch park, Santa Ana, on Sunday, July 4th. There will be a program and main speaking after dinner. C.Krause.

Free band concert at the library on Thursday night, July 1, by the Anaheim city band. The open air concerts are to be given once a week during the summer months. The band is one of the best in the state, and the boys are anxious to have people come out and hear the music. The band will occupy the balcony at the entrance and there is plenty of room around the grounds to afford accommodation for audiences. Come out and listen to the band. The finding of an old cane in the walls of the Commercial hotel last week may add a chapter to a murder mystery if the note attached to it does not prove to be a hoax. The cane had been pushed through the wall of a bedroom into the cavity between the weather boarding and the plaster and the wall paper had been pasted over the hole. A note attached to it was dated January, 1897, and stated that the cane had been used to kill Mr.Rasim, a millionaire cattle king of Evanston, Wyoming. The cane is now exhibited in a window of the California Wine Co. Officers have written to the Wyoming town, for information, but no answer has yet been received. Who's Hazel? Your druggist?

"It has become necessary for the school to undertake some of the work of education which belongs properly to the home. Boys and girls under the jurisdiction of the schools are taught some of the practical lessons which should be learned. Many parents willingly pass the problems which the home should solve up to the school. The responsibility of the home does not end when the child is turned over to the school and Sunday school. "Proper food and clothing and matters of personal sanitary importance, should be taught in the home. The study and work habits should come as a result of home training. And matters of morals belong there. Some parents place false values on child life and so neglect practical obligations. The father should bring to mind his own boyhood days and so be able to understand what are the needs of the boy life. This is particularly important when the boy gets to the stage where he seems to know everything worth while, which is only the unfolding of the powers to know. "A great loss to family life comes when the old time family circle is broken up by the auto habit, the picture show and the distractions of modern life. There is great value in gathering around the table and each one reading for himself, one reading to the rest, or in recounting the happenings of the day. The influence of such a gathering night by night is of great educational value. "The school, the home, the church, must work together for the education of the child." FOR SALE—Blackberries cheap on the A. V. Wheeler ranch, southeast of Anaheim. The Socialist party of Orange county will give a basket dinner at Berch park, Santa Ana, on Sunday, July 4th.

Cox & Burkhard of the Central Garage have taken the agency for the Bulck, the best car for the money on the market. A car for demonstration will be here either Saturday or Monday and the gentlemen will be pleased to meet all their friends and prospective purchasers and show the many good qualities of the auto. The Bulck has made wonderful records and the machine is growing more popular every day. Call or phone to the Central Garage and Messrs. Cox & Burkhard will do the rest. As the heaviest tide of the season is scheduled for Saturday, June 26, property owners of Newport Beach who had an expensive experience recently, when the unruly waves destroyed so much beach property, are rushing the work of protecting the ocean front from the waves on the date mentioned. Bulkheads are being built, most of these being filled with bags of sand and with stone in an effort to break the force of the waves. Several meetings of citizens interested were held, keen interest being manifested for this emergency work. Diversification of crops is one of the scientific farming tenets being pounded home today by the department of agriculture. It is getting results, but some of the results of the campaign are amusing as well as gratifying. An expert of the department received word from a southern farmer that he was diversifying by quitting sugar planting and using all his land instead to raise tomatoes. The department's plan is to foster production of home gardens, encourage thrift by teaching people to can fruit and vegetables for home use—to have farmers grow their own hay, peas, corn, potatoes, oats and some cane or sorghum for syrup, and to produce their own meat supply if possible. In the south the department's experts are particularly driving in the idea that there is almost always some waste land which could be profitably used to raise livestock for the family meat supply at least. "Encourage the robin and bluebird," is the advice of the department biologists. These birds will more than compensate for occasional depredations by the assistance they render in killing undesirable insects, according to experts. They can be prevented from eating desirable fruits, it is pointed out, by providing them with a supply of wild ones for winter diet when insect food is scarce. The case of Mary L. Lynch against Joseph G. Lynch has been ordered dismissed according to a stipulation filed in superior court Tuesday.

Harold Powell of the California Fruit Growers' Exchange, in an address on marketing before the Pomological Society at the annual picnic at Ganesha Park. "Just two things will sell lemons—hot weather and cold weather. People use them for cold lemonade when the weather is warm and hot lemonade when the weather is extremely cold. "We are up against the job of increasing the per capita consumption of lemons in this country 75 per cent within a year. Our present production of lemons is 12,000 cars and we have enough young trees coming into bearing to guarantee an increase of 50,000 cars. The per capita consumption of lemons in Italy is 100 to our three. "We must teach American people to use more lemons and oranges. They ought to be used more freely in the kitchen. Lemons can be used for toilet purposes. The Italian claims they have anticeptic properties. There is a great deal of bunk about medicine, but if we can ever prove that the lemon is an improver of the general health we will have great selling arguments. "The task that confronts the growers of California is that of getting more people to use oranges and lemons, particularly lemons, because the lemon now waits for weather conditions to sell it. We must develop its use so that there will be a steady demand for it all the year." DISCOURAGING TO HOME INDUSTRY Blindness of Free Traders to the Interests of American Labor and Production A Rochester druggist has had brought sharply to him the economic crime committed by the Demacratic party when it revised the tariff law. A firm of manufacturing chemists, to which he wrote a letter of inquiry regarding certain drugs, wrote him, in part, in reply: If Congress could only realize the situation drug dealers are faced with, American textile manufacturers is shown by the statement that since March 9 no shipments of German dyestuffs have reached this country. Supplies are running low. The prediction is made that unless they are renewed the stock of German dyes in American warehouses will be entirely exhausted by the end of July. There is an abundant stock of dyes on hand in Germany, but the government has withheld permission to forward shipments to this country, apparently hoping by this means to bring pressure to bear on our government to further the shipment of foodstuffs to Germany. The opportunity to make our manufacturers independent of German dyes would seem to be very promising if it were not for the knowledge that the German chemical industry has a powerful organization, backed by the state, and would flood our markets the moment the war was over, for the purpose of killing off American competition. Capitalists will never invest heavily in the chemical industry until they can be assured that they will have adequate protection from underselling by foreigners after the declaration of peace.—Rochester (N. Y.) Democrat and Chronicle. ANAHEIM YOUNG MAN IN AUTO ACCIDENT Collides with Another Car at West Orange and Is Slightly Damaged In an automobile collision on West Chapman avenue in West Orange last Tuesday evening, two cars were put out of commission and several people received slight injuries. The accident took place at the Dinsmore ranch, about a quarter of a mile west of Main street. Jesse Dinsmore started to leave his ranch at six o'clock in his little Maxwell runabout. His ranch foreman, Homer Tickle, was with him. As they came out of the driveway onto Chapman avenue boulevard a big touring car headed west, crashed into them. The runabout was whirled about and shoved into the ditch, considerably broken up. The other car, which was a 7-passenger Halliday carrying six passengers, was also thrown off its course and wandered into a walnut or- A Rochester druggist has had brought sharply to him the economic crime committed by the Demacratic party when it revised the tariff law. A firm of manufacturing chemists, to which he wrote a letter of inquiry regarding certain drugs, wrote him, in part, in reply: If Congress could only realize the situation drug dealers are faced with, as a result of the war, particularly respecting chemicals for which we are dependent entirely on Germany, it would doubtless place a tariff duty on such products sufficiently large to protect American manufacturers. In that event a great many makers would feel inclined to manufacture here the salts for which we are now entirely dependent on Germany. There is, of course no reason to believe that Congress can ever be induced to restore protection while it remains under democratic control. That matter will have to be postponed until the republicans are again in the ascendancy. Representative Underwood was sufficiently warned when he was framing the tariff measure that bears his name that the country was bound to suffer if our markets were thrown open to foreign manufacturers, but he refused to heed the warning. The embarrassment under which textile manufactures are laboring as the result of the scarcity of dyes is only another illustration of the blindness of the democratic party to the interests of American industries. An expert who has been studying conditions declares that the great bulk of the coal tar dyes now imported from Europe can be profitably manufactured on American soil if the manufacturers are given protection by statute against the dumping of the products of foreign markets. How serious the situation is with Jesse Dinsmore started to leave his ranch at six o'clock in his little Maxwell runabout. His ranch foreman, Homer Tickle, was with him. As they came out of the driveway onto Chapman avenue boulevard a big touring car headed west, crashed into them. The runabout was whirled about and shoved into the ditch, considerably broken up. The other car, which was a 7-passenger Halliday carrying six passengers, was also thrown off its course and wandered into a walnut orchard, one fender scraping a telephone pole as the car went careening past. Its front axle was badly bent and there were other damages of lesser importance. The driver, a young man, who gave his name as Evans and his residence Anaheim, was slightly bruised and his clothing more or less destroyed. Mr. Dinsmore, whose home is in Santa Ana, was not hurt. Mr. Tickle, however, was less fortunate being thrown a number of feet from the car and receiving painful sprains and bruises to his right ankle, arm and back. He also narrowly escaped being run over by the machine. Mr. Dinsmore stated that in driving out onto the boulevard his view was obstructed by small trees and he did not see the approaching car until it was within a few feet. He had started to turn toward the car but catching sight of it he tried to turn the other way. Evans also attempted to steer to the left and avoid the collision but couldn't make it and they came together with a great impact. The little Maxwell was almost ground into the dirt and apparently the large car passed over one corner of it. The left front wheel was demolished and the fender and frame of the car was twisted out of shape. Mr. Dinsmore was of the opinion that both he and Mr. Tickle were extremely lucky in getting away as lightly as they did.
