Brought TO Light.

A few days since we published an
item referring to some Masonic pa
pers which were found among the ef-
fects of one Morrilla lately convicted
of larceny in our County Court. The
papers consisted of some memoran-
dums tied up in a small package and a
Gemit from Masonic lodge in Scot
land to Henry MaeDowell bearing
date of March 18th, 1868. The Ana
helm Gazette quotes our item and adds
the following bit of history to it,:
The MacDowell referred to in the
foregoing item was employed on the
Los Angeles Rancho, in May, 1872.
At his instance Morrilla was arrested
for the larceny of a lot of papers. The
papers, among which was a Masonic
demit, were found in Morrilla's cabin
by officers Davies and Byrd. After
the preliminary trial of Morrilla in
the JUSTICES Court, MacDOwell got
on protracted spree, during which
he visited Anaheim Landing, pur-
chased bottle of whisky, embarked
in light skiff belonging to Charley
Smith, rowed over the bar, and was
never heard of since. 1t was supposed
at the time he had committe suicide
during fit of mental alteration, SUI
perinduced by his pro tracted debapch.

The Mayoralty.


To-day will be fought y decisive bat
tie between the money combination
and the people. = The struggle Is for
the control Of our municipal affairs.
The money combination has selected
as its candidate for Mayor Mr.. SA BIZ
CHA man a~er -~a,e,-. ti-ey ---s,'tirv
and WELD; entire control. 1t also
maintains In the field Mr.. TIFFANY, a
man also pledged to stand by and aid
it's schemes, but whom they have no
hope of electing and only keep can
didate in the hope that he will draw a
few votes which would otherwise be
cast for MFR. BEAUDRY. These are the
candidates Of the combination. The
peoples candidate is Mr.. BEAUDRY, a
gentleman who has been slandered
and maligned, traduced and villified,
by the hired tools of the monopolists,
as no gentleman was ever before ira
duced. II the people are true to their
interests, true to the principles OF
honor and justice, true to themselves,
they will win the fight and elect Mr..
BEAUDRY by three hundred majority.

Look Out For The Express.

The Erpress will be out to-day with
all kinds of falsehoods. 1t will say that
the Water Company has sold out to
Beaudry.
1t will say that Beaudry has sold
out to the Water Company.
1t will say Beaudry offered Sacriste
81 800 to withdraw.
1t will say that Sabichi has with
drawn.
1t will say that all those things are
true
The fact is that they are all false
false as the Express.
1t will squirt its last venom to-day.
It's falsehoods are all old disreputable
tricks.
Mr.. BEAUDRY asserts that no COM
bination of any kind has, or will be
made. Gentlemen who have COM
muned with DIR. GRIFFIN, President
of the Water Company, assure us that
he says all the purchase and sale busi-
ness is false. SABICHI is out with a
Card denying that he has the remotest
idea of withdrawing. The Express is
prolific of falshoods, but is a stranger
to truth. Heed nothing that it says.
To-day is its last dodge on the eve of
the election.

Mendacious libeIs Of the express

and the statement of BERNARD him.
self prove to be wilful and premedi-
tated falsehood invented to defeat Mr..
BEAUDRY.
IT. The ABlLA falsehood, which the
record nails down as false in every par
ticular and which the ring admits was
concocted in the hope that it would
injure MIR. BEAUDRY. l0rr1
III. The ROBERTS falsehood, which
we have shown by the record to have
been bold scheme to blackmail Mr..
BEAUDRY. It's character and purpose
was explained by ROBERTS when he
told Mr.. BEAUDRY that if he did not
come to his terms he would use his
influence to defeat his (Mr. BEAU
DRY's) election. s.fL
~. The SToEMER falsehood, which
the record shows to have been an at
tempt to retain possession of property
without paying for it, and which the
ring admits was too palpable false
hood to injure any one, much less a
man as we'll and favorably known as
Mr.. BEAUDRY.
V. The falsehood that Mr.. BEAUDRY
used his influence as member of the
Council to. obtain possession of prop
erty not his own. A silly lie and de-
nounced as such by every member of
the Council. This falsehood the ring
says the Egpress invented itself in the
hope that it would injure Mr.. BEAU
DRY.
We might fill columns with the
falsehoods the Express has published
for the purpose of injuring Mr.. BEAU
DRY, but the above are sufficient to
inspire in the minds of all right-mind-
ed men q feeling of contempt for q
paper that will sink itself to the level
of the common slanderer and calumni-

house-keeper in the city will be swal-

question of raising the rates has al

Lords, and it will come again. The
City Council have the right to fix the
rates and If the Mayor will ratify their
acts it becomes law. Let all the
