PAGE FOUR Anaheim Gazette ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY ESTABLISHED 1870 Henry Kuchel, Editor and Proprietor SUBSCRIPTION PER YEAR ... $1.50 SIX MONTHS ... $1.00 THREE MONTHS ... $ .50 Entered at the Anaheim Postoffice as second-class matter That Consolidation Some little discussion has arisen during the week in respect to the consolidation of the three newspapers of this city. We understand an option has been obtained on the Herald, and that its Whittier owners will retire from its publication. So far as we can learn, no option has been obtained on the Plain Dealer, and the statement published in that paper some days ago that an option had been obtained on the Gazette is quite unfounded. No one has sought to obtain an option on our property, and none has been given. What the proposed consolidation of the newspaper plants will amount to is something for the future to determine. EveryInchAmerican The passing of Col. Roosevelt leaves a void in the life of the Nation that cannot be filled. His personality was unique, his direct method of obtaining results may be said to be characteristic of no other man of his time, and his originality of thought and action stamped him as a man quite apart The Republican Nominee That the next president of the United States will be a republican is indicated by all the signs of the times. There rests upon the rank and file of the republican party, therefore, the responsibility of selecting the man who shall be their nominee, and, as a consequence, the chief executive of the nation. We say that the responsibility rests upon the rank and file, for, under present systems of nomination, the voters exercise a very direct influence upon the choice. In fact, nearly a third of the states have presidential primaries. In discussion of the nomination of candidates and the election of a president in 1920 it will be fortunate for the country and for the republican party if discussion of types of men shall precede discussion of individuals. It will be well if we get away from the notion that a candidate should be chosen chiefly upon the theory that he is a good "vote getter," with minor consideration of the sort of record he will make when elected. The duty resting upon republicans is to select as their nominee the man who will probably serve the nation best, if elected, and then if their candidate be not elected, the responsibility will not be theirs. It will also be well to get away from the fallacious and mischievous notion that a candidate must be selected because of geographical location. It is a wicked perversion of popular government to assume that a man is barred from the presidency either because he occupies an office in New York or has his habitat among the growing industries of far-off Arizona.

It would be EveryInchAmerican The passing of Col. Roosevelt leaves a void in the life of the Nation that cannot be filled. His personality was unique, his direct method of obtaining results may be said to be characteristic of no other man of his time, and his originality of thought and action stamped him as a man quite apart from his fellows. It is not too much to say that no citizen of the United States since the time of Lincoln has left his impression upon the country as has Roosevelt. He was typically American. His advocacy of what he himself termed "the strenuous life," and his practical application of that mode of living to himself, made him the idol of the millions of Americans who believe that the application of enthusiasm and confidence will overcome most obstacles. Col. Roosevelt gloried in his citizenship. He not only offered his best abilities to the civil life of the Republic, but he was always at the front when danger threatened. In the Spanish war none was more energetic than he in organizing and leading the men who brought about early victory in Cuba. He clearly discerned the danger to our country if Germany was successful in her contest with the allies, and urged that the United States throw the weight of her power into the balance long before we actually entered the conflict. Who can say that America and the world would not have profited had his advice been followed? When war with Germany was actually upon us Col. Roosevelt was among the first to offer his services to his country. He wanted no desk at Washington, but begged to be assigned to our combat forces overseas. Not only did he tender his own life to his country but he organized an entire brigade of men outside of draft age eager to follow him into the thick of the fight. The fact that his proffer was not accepted by those in power at Washington does not detract in the least degree from the patriotism and sacrifice that inspired him in making it. But although unable to go to Europe himself Col. Roosevelt was quick to give his enthusiastic assent to his four sons engaging in the fight. One of them met tragic death at the hands of the enemy, and the others have received wounds that testify to their personal daring. His grief over their sufferings was intensified by the thought then if their candidate be not elected, the responsibility will not be theirs. It will also be well to get away from the fallacious and mischievous notion that a candidate must be selected because of geographical location. It is a wicked perversion of popular government to assume that a man is barred from the presidency either because he occupies an office in New York or has his habitat among the growing industries of far-off Arizona. What this nation needs, first of all, is a president who believes in the American system of government—a government divided into three branches, legislative, executive and judicial, each performing faithfully and efficiently its own duties and not attempting to distate the acts or policies of the others. Experience has shown that waste and inefficiency result from neglect of administrative duties by an executive who tries to run the legislative branch of government. This nation needs a president who has had broad training and experience in the practical affairs of the world and of government. We have suffered irremediable injury from the halting and vacillating eccentricities of theories whose chief skill is in making fine phrases that mean anything or nothing as subsequent events may make expedient. We need a president whose associations and sympathies have been with the producers of the country, for upon the prosperity of the producers the future greatness of this nation must rest. We use the word "producers" in its broadest sense. Some consideration, but of a secondary sort, may be given to people who class themselves only as consumers. There are three classes of men whose training and habits of thought unfit them for the presidency. These are school masters, professional military men, and men who have served long on the bench. Men of these classes have been removed from close relation with the world of affairs. They have become accustomed to receive obsequious obedience. They have formed the mental habits of a dictator—habits that are accentuated rather than overcome by election to the presidency. This country needs a servant, not a master, in the White House. Under our form of government, the people, through their representatives in Congress, make the laws, and the president is charged with the duty of executing them. There are plenty of men in the republican party who have the qualifications for successful administration of cepted by those in power at Washington does not detract in the least degree from the patriotism and sacrifice that inspired him in making it. But although unable to go to Europe himself Col. Roosevelt was quick to give his enthusiastic assent to his four sons engaging in the fight. One of them met tragic death at the hands of the enemy, and the others have received wounds that testify to their personal daring. His grief over their sufferings was intensified by the thought that he was not permitted to share their dangers. Although Col. Roosevelt did not don a uniform it is hardly too much to say that he is a victim of the war. No citizen of the country has been more active than he in urging every man to do his bit for victory. Criticized by some for calling the administration to task for manifest failures, it must be admitted that his efforts and those of his friends have been productive of much good through the reforms in our military organization that were secured. His devotion to war work entailed exertions on his part that undoubtedly hastened his death, and it may be justly said of him that he gave his life for his country as truly as if he had died on the battlefield. Col. Roosevelt made strong friends. He likewise incurred violent enmities. But every antagonist must concede that Mr. Roosevelt was a worthy opponent. He never resorted to unfair means to discomfit his adversary. Treachery was unknown to him, and his fights were won by straight blows from the shoulder. As an example of virile American manhood the memory of Theodore Roosevelt will live in the minds of all, to be emulated by those of our citizens who wish to preserve the United States from mental and physical decadence. Some time ago President Samuel Gompers, of the American Federation of Labor, said that the laboring men of the country would resist to the uttermost any effort to reduce wages from the war-time schedules. To this a prompt response was made by President Jonathan Bourne, of the Republican Publicity Association, saying that Republicans will be glad to co-operate in the effort to keep wages up, and suggested that a protective tariff was the best means of preventing a lowering of wages through competition with the products of cheap labor abroad. Bourne asked Gompers to suggest his remedy for falling wages in the face of competition, and thus far Gompers' only answer has been that labor does not propose to depend upon any "patent panacea." Well, there is no patent on the protective tariff idea. The idea of a high scale of wages is not patented. We should be glad to have Japan, China, Mexico, Great Britain, Germany, Belgium, France, and all the rest of the nations that produce in competition with us, adopt our scale of wages. Unhave formed the mental habits of a dictator—habits that are accentuated rather than overcome by election to the presidency. This country needs a servant, not a master, in the White House. Under our form of government, the people, through their representatives in Congress, make the laws, and the president is charged with the duty of executing them. There are plenty of men in the republican party who have the qualifications for successful administration of the office of chief executive. Full, friendly and frank discussion will bring them to public attention. PROTECTION IDEA NOT PATENTED A committee of Aerial League vanancement has been Benj, Ide Wheeler California.

It is likely men and women with such oppo-mittee was na-tive the committee chairman, and Conte, Edmund Jr., G. D. Loudon E. Haskell, T. Ford, R. F. Rail T. Jones and I ANAHEIM GAZETTE THE HEAD OF THE TABLE There is much discussion as to the order in which the representatives of the various nations shall be seated at the peace table. The logical order would be the order in which their respective nations entered the war. Certainly the nations that answered, without hesitation, the call of humanity when the Hun monster attempted to overthrow civilization, should have precedence at the peace table over the laggard nations that waited until the last moment to answer the call of duty to themselves and the world. This may jar some who thing the glorious record made by our army and navy entitles us to the first place but much as we may want to forget it the world will never forget our cowardly evasion of duty in the early trying days of the war. This is in a measure atoned for by the record of our boys—brave beyond measure but unprepared as the casualty lists show—but in this regard our record is equalled by the record of our allies. It is our failure in diplomacy; our failure to effectively protest the murder of our women and children on high seas; our failure to promptly answer the call of humanity and take warning from the reports of our ambassadors as to the aim of Germany for world dominion that puts us at a disadvantage at the peace table. It would be well for our delegates at all they do adopt such a scale, we shall feel under the necessity of protecting our own scale by imposing an import-duty on the products of cheaper labor sufficient to cover the difference in cost of production. Protection is neither a panacea nor patented. It is a plain matter of economic good sense. It is an "America First" principle put into practice. APPOINTMENT OF SUB-COMMITTEES Albert Boynton Names Men Who Are to Make Investigations and Studies State's Activities Chairman Albert E. Boynton, of Governor Stephens' committee on efficiency and economy, has made the appointment of the sub-committees which are to make the detailed investigations and studies of the eleven functional groups into which the state's activities have been arranged. The sub-committees are as follows: I—Subject of Finance, Commerce and Utilities. John S. Chambers, chairman, Herbert W. Clark, Edward A. Dickson, Frank P. Flint, Clyde L. Seavey. II—Subject of Public Works and Properties, Agricultural and Natural Resources. Frank P. Flint, chairman, John S. Chambers, Marshall DeMotte, Lee A. Phillips, Clyde L. Seavey. III—Subject of Labor, Public Welfare. Dr. John R. Haynes, chairman, Herbert W. Clark, Edward A. Dickson, Percy A. Long, Clyde L. Seavey. IV—Subject of Education, Civil Service, State Defense. Marshall DeMotte, chairman, Dr. John R. Haynes, Percy V. Long, Lee A. Phillips, U.S. Webb. V—Subject of Public Health, Legal Service, Edward A. Dickson, chairman, Herbert W. Clark, Dr. John R. Haynes, Percy V. Long, U.S. Webb. A great deal of the preliminary work has already been done by the main committee and the sub-committees will, therefore, be free to launch immediately into the intracacies of their respective problems. It is the committee's plan to provoke as widespread a discussion of the state's administrative affairs as possible, and to this end it invites constructive suggestions and the co-operation of all citizens and organizations. UNIVERSITY OPENING POST-PONED UNTIL JAN. 20. President Benj. Ide Wheeler, of the University of California, recently issued the following announcement, postponing the opening of the university for the spring term until Monday, January 20. "The university will remain closed until Monday, January 20. Measures of protection against influenza which Berkeley and San Francisco are about to adopt, make it reasonably certain that it will be safe to open on that date." POPULARITY OF GRAPE SYRUPPUT TO TEST Of 65 persons who purchased grape syrup at a Berkeley grocery store, the opinions of 43 as to its quality were favorable, of 11 more less favorable, while four were non-committal. Such is the result of a "popularity test" to which the syrup was put, as reported by Professors Frederic T. Bioletti and W.V.Cruess, of the University of California, in a bulletin recently issued by the College of Agriculture. The following summary of opinion is given: Very good, lovely, excellent, nice...23 Good, no unfavorable comment...20 Disliked it, no specific criticism...5 Too sweet...2 Not sweet enough, too thin...6 Tastes cooked, burned strong...6 Doubtful...4 CALIFORNIA SHEEP AND WOOL GROWERS' ASSOCIATION All growers of sheep were today extended an invitation to attend the annual meeting of the California Sheep and Wool Growers' Association on January 2 and 23, at the University of California Farm at Davis.

B. Babcock, professor of genetics, and R. E. Clausen, assistant professor of genetics, of the University of California. The half of the volume of upwards of 650 pages deals with the fundamental principles underlying scientific breeding. The book, which is fully illustrated, is published by the McGraw-Hill Brook Compay, of New York. AERIAL CLUB OF AMERICA A committee to co-operate with the Aerial League of America in the advancement of the science of aeronautics has been named by President Benj. Ide Wheeler of the University of California. The league, in asking that a university committee be named, stated that "through the tremendous strides forward of aeronautics there are wonderful possibilities for the employment of ingenuity, genius and skill, and business opportunities as great as ever have been created by progress in important lines of human endeavor." It is in order that university men and women may be in touch with such opportunities that the committee was named. The members of the committee are: Prof. B. M. Woods, chairman, and Professors J. N. LeConte, Edmund Q'Neill, F. S. Foote, Jr., G. D. Louderback, E. E. Hall, M. E. Haskell, T. M. Putnam, R. T. Crawford, R. F. Raber, N. B. Drury, Dr. L. T. Jones and Leonard Bacon. New species of Pacific Coast marine vegetation are described and classified by Nathaniel L. Gardner, assistant professor of botany at the University of California, in a paper entitled "New Pacific Coast Marine Algae IV" which has just been issued by the University Press. Prof. Gardner's research work was conducted at West Berkeley, San Francisco, Monterey, San Pedro, and elsewhere in California. TRAINING OF SOLDIERS AND SAILORS DISCHARGED FROM SERVICE The University Farm at Davis is among the departments of the University of California that offer opportunities for fitting for civilian occupations men who have been invalided home from the battle front. Dr. Robert J. Leonard, professor of vocational instruction, in a report to President Benjide Wheeler, also cites the California School of Mechanic Arts, in San Francisco, and the University extension division as departments especially well suited to the carrying on of university reconstruction work. Dr. Thomas Forsyth Hunt, dean of the College of Agriculture, represents agriculture on the following committee on reconstruction named by President Wheeler: Prof. C. L. Cory, chairman; Miss Lucy Ward Stebbins and Dr. Robert J. Leonard, vice-chairmen; Dr. Thomas Forsyth Hunt, agriculture; Dr. Ira B. Cross, commerce; Miss Jessica B. Paixotto, and Dr. Solomon Blum, economics and industry; Captain Robert T. Legge, public health and relief. Secretary of the Navy Daniels will come to California on a tour of Pacific coast naval stations in March, according to a letter received by Secretary Ray Groves of the Los Angeles democratic central committee.

Bonynge AL'S IDEA It is understood that one of Al Burleson's proposals under government control of the wires is to charge for long distance messages whether the party called up can be found or not. Now how many men do you suppose, wishing to call, says, from Chicago to New York, or to San Francisco, on a matter of business, would care to pay the long distance toll on the mere chance of getting in touch with the proper party? Burleson's proposal would practically put an end to long distance 'phoning', which may be what he aims to do. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Pendleton, of Pasadena, visited last week with Mr. and Mrs. John W. Duckworth. Misses Dorothy and Helen Duckworth, who had been visiting with their grandparents, returned home with their parents Sunday. G. M. Simpson returned to this city a few days ago from Kingman, Ariz., where he reports everything moving along nicely at the Standard Mineral Company's mine.
