Mayor Hazard opened the ball by
stating that a meeting had been held in

owing to the absence of the members of
several outside clubs, it had been decid-
ed to defer taking formal action until
all should be present. 1t was under
stood that the residents of Pasadena
wanted to have voice in the matter,

Kernaghan, H. H. Rose. L. Blanken-
been appointed to meet with the Los
Angeles Republicans. That while the
people of Pasadena did not insist upon
Los Angeles giving way in the matter of
rendering Colonel Markham his first
reception, yet they felt, inasmuch as
Pasadena was his home, they should be
given the first opportunity to welcom e
home the man for whom every one, in
Guiding the women and children, were
shouting, and asked that Los Angeles
not only give way but unite in grand
reception on Friday evening at Pasa-
dena.
Mayor Hazard was of the opinion
that if the Pasadenans felt that way,
the Angelefos should give way.
Col. Otis moved that the wishes of
the Pasadena people be complied with
but HI. Y. Osborne moved as an amend

another be rendered to him in this city,
to which not only Pasadena but every
