Mr.. Ryan's Views in ExtensO.

EDITORS HERALD The HERALD ex-
hibits it's fairness in admitting to it's
columns the diverse views of it's readers
upon public questions, and then opening
up on them it's editorial batteries. 1t is
good, wholesome journalism.
The writer believes in honest politics,
and will join the HERALD in any reason
able endeavor to purify elections.
1t is merely question OF methods to
obtain that end.
In the earnest protest against the plan
proposed by the Seventh Ward club, the
tendency of which was approved by me,
your criticism, no doubt through my own
fault in not being more definite in ex-
preston, gave different turn to my
article than was intended by the writer.
The writer's plea was merely for a
more effective organization. l am in
favor of no machine" which is not run
by the people and in their interests. 1t
is the lack of the right kind of organ
ization which makes frauds upon the
ballot box possible. cannot assent to
the doctrine that organization is neces-
sarily inconsistent with democracy, nor
do l believe that the editor OF the HER
AID with his extensive political expert
ence will do so.
Martin Van Buren, was none the less
a Democrat because he was skillful
organizer. Samuel j. Tilden was none
the less the peoples choice because his
splendid powers of organization aided
in giving expression to the public will.
Had it not been for the school district
organization of Daniel Manning the one
thousand majority which made Cleve-
land president would not have been OBJ
tanned.
The secret of party success is in per-

A COMMERCIAL SERMON.
Based on the Text of Work and Pro-
duction.

"Here's railroad company, the Los
Angeles & Terminal, which will spend
three millions of dollars in and about
this city; here's new water company,
the E. L. Stern company, which will
spend two and half millions of dollars
in bringing mountain water into Los
Angeles, and which proposes to build
the most complete water distributing
system in the United States. These are
only two legitimate enterprises, which
involve the expenditure right here Of
nearly six millions of dollars. And some
of us talk about hard times. Why, no
section could have better times than
exist right here The whole country
population is making money hand over
fist out of fruit and grain. You will see
things hum here in a very few months,
and it wont be boom, either, but a
hum that will keep on for all time.
There's no element of gambling about
the present basis of prosperity, for it
consists of work and production. We
are the people. Ia ta." So talked one
of the keenest business men in the
city yesterday.

feet organization which promotes
harmony, gets out the party vote, edu-
Gates the doubtful voter and makes
possible the triumph of those principles
which we believe to be essential to good
government.
The precinct system was suggested
not only because l believe it would set
tie the question of the primaries, but
because it brings the elections near to
the people. and is the best method yet
devised to obtain the average sentiment
of voters upon candidates and questions.
To make any party organization ef-
fective it ought to be under the direction
of the central committee, who are rep
resentatives of the party; and who are
responsible in large measure for the sue
cess or failure of campaign.
The fear that this system would
Buckleyize the county is wholesome
one, but it seems to me q mere phan-
tom. The temper OF the people would
not permit it; and the political makeup
of the county renders such a consumma-
tion impossible.
The father of this system in San Fran
cisco, underst tand, is not Buckley, but
VIM. d. English, and, as the HERALD
knows, it was devised after the party had
been defeated by internal dissensions.
am not urging the system in its de-
tails, but am simply contending for an
organization of some kind that will bring
out the full voting strength of the De-
mocracy of this county, in the interest
of the state and county tickets and a
Democratic legislature.
In the endeavor to secure this result
am sure that the editor of the HERALD
and myself are in accord.

THE REFORMERS
Resolve Some Resolutions and Make
Speeches,


A meeting of the Municipal Reform
Association was held last night in one OF
the ante-rooms of the Illinois hall on
the corner of Broadway and Sixth
street. President Ralph E. Hoyt was in
the chair, and thirty members, including
two ladies and the reporters, were pres
ent.
Mr.. Grosvenor opened the ball by
reading newspaper clipping with refer
ence to municipal reform. He was fol-
lowed by Secretary Hewitt, who made
a few brief but pointed remarks on the
question of the tax demand for the fiscal
year 1890-01. Then j. V. Waldron had
something to say about the furtherance
of mutual reform.
The president offered the following
resolution, which was adopted unan-
imously:
WHEREAS, The city council has, by its action
in practically rejecting the application of the
Terminal Railway company for a right of way
through the city on the east side of the river,
lost golden opportunity Of insuring the carry
ing forward of an important railroad enterprise,
one that would prove an immediate and lasting
benefit to Los Angeles in various ways; there
fore be it
Resolved, That we deeply regret and strongly
condemn such action on the part of the council
as being against the best interests of the city
Resolved That we urge the council to rescind
the vote by which said application for fran
chise was defeated, and grant the Terminal
Railway company every lawful and proper
facility for the early construction of the pro-
posed road.
The garbage contract was dissected by
a Mr.. Gordon, WHO was followed by E.
M. Hamilton and A. F. Kercheval in the
same strain.
Police Commissioner D. Gilbert Dex-
ter vigorously denounced the introduce
ton of politics into the departments of
the city government, and especially on
the police force, and touched upon sew
eral topics which he wished to see
reformed. He concluded with motion
to the effect that the chair appoint a
ways and means committee of five to
raise the funds necessary for the work of
the association. After experiencing
considerable difficulty, the members
generally evincing decided aversion to
act as collectors, the chairman appointed
Rev. j. H. Collins, J. g. Evans, A. F.
Kercheval, J. V. Waldron and E. M.
Hamilton as such committee; where
upon the meeting adjourned.

Yesterdays Series of Athletic Contests
at the Beach

dI Lie ocaCu.
The athletic and polo contests held at
Santa Monica yesterday were we'll at
tended. The ladies were unusually well
represented, and their gay costumes lent
eclat to the occasion. The grounds were
surrounded by equipages and the fair oc-
cupants displayed the liveliest interest
in the field sports. The games were held
under the auspices of the Southern Cal
ifornia Lawn Tennis and Polo clubs.
Captain N. &. Bolton and f. G. Ryan
officiated as judges and E. w. Barry as
starter, when not taking part in the
races. The stewards were S. Kern, r.

gramme was the running long jump. 1t
was hotly contested and was won by Bob
Carter, who cleared sixteen feet ten
inches. Barry came off second with
jump of sixteen feet nine inches.

field, but E. Barry won cleverly from
Kenneth Carter. The time announced
was 8 seconds. The three-legged race

and Z. p. Carter finished second. The
hurdle race was the next to attract the
attention of the spectators. Seven faced
the starter, but after the first hurdle had
been negotiated it settled down to con-
test between Barry and Jardine. Both
cleared the hurdles In good style, with
Barry slightly in the lead. After clear
ing the last hurdle Jardine spurted and
won by little to spare, after gallant
struggle. The winner fouled Barry, but
the latter generously waived all claim
and the race was awarded to Jardine.
The tug of war was now called. There
were three teams, as follows: R. z. Car
ter, Benjamin, Bolton and Ryan; Kin
ney, Patterson, Jardine, Carson; Kerry,
Dunbar, X. Carter, and Woodhouse.
The first team drew bye. Kinney,
Patterson, Jardine and Carson defeated
Kern, Dunbar, X. Carter and Wood
house. The winners were next ar
ranged against r. P. Carter, Benjamin,
Bolton and Ryan. The latter team
pulled together in good style and Sc
cured the trophy. The event was
watched with great interest and both
sides were cheered on to victory.
In the afternoon many novel events
took place. The victors were applauded
and altogether the sports were success.
The programme had not been concluded
when the last train leftssSanta Monica,
and the winners of the sports in the af-
ternoon will appear in tomorrow's paper.

The fact that Justice Savage had paid
into the hands of the county clerk his
81 800 bail money was yesterday soon
communicated to Alva Udell, who
applied to Judge Wade for another writ
of habeas corpus. This petition was
granted and writ issued returnable at
3o'clock p. m. At that hour, Udell,
Justice Savage, County Clerk Meredith,
and miscellaneous crowd of attorneys,
reporters, and others, who were in
terested. assembled in the courtroom
ofdepartment three of the superior court.
The petitioner went over the same
ground covered by him on Tuesday on
his first application, adding, however,
that the 81 800 bail money was now in
the hands of the county clerk. Upon
hearing this, and the corroborative testi-
mony of Justice Savage and County
Clerk J. M. Meredith, as to the payment
and receipt of the money, Judge Wade
ordered the defendant to be released
from custody, and the whole party left
the courtroom.
