STILL THEY COMPLAIN.
The Republicans who are objecting to
the czar like domination of clique OF
thAmembers of the Union League who
control that organization and through
it the Republican politics of this county
are becoming numerous. Now that the
kickers have become go large as to num-
bers, more are coming to the surface.
The HERALD printed list the other
day OF Ill Office holding members of the
club. The list was incomplete. There
should have been about twenty addi-
tions, which would have run the num-
Der up to 131.
Among the name 9 printed in this con-
| nection, was that of Mayor Hazard. But
he thinks, to judge from the CONVERSE
tion had with him yesterday, that the
league has outlived its usefulness. He
explained his membership in the league
in about three words:
Il joined the Union League and was
one of its original members. My idea
at that time was that club composed
OF the prominent Republicans of the city
and county, united for the good of the
party, would be instrumental in pre-
venting a system of bossiem which ex-
listed and still exists in other parts of
the state, and in my judgment would do
good work in that regard. The action
OF the Union League in the last primary
election is evidence to me that the
league can be and has been used for the
very purposes which l supposed il
would be instrumental in preventing.
That ie to say, that it has united the
elements that are seeking office instead
of the better elements of the party, who
desire the public good. 1t is evident to
my mind that designing politicians have
secured control of the league, and that,
in my judgment, against the wish of the
great majority of it's members, who
compose the better element, under
whose auspices the club was organ
ICED"
There are hundreds Of Republicans in
this city and county who think exactly
as Mayer Hazard does.
POLITICAL NOTES.
The Fifth Ward Republican club met
the other evening. This is Mayor Haz-
ards ward. and the Lindleyites had con-
cluded to control the CLUB and simply
wipe Mayor Hazard out of existence.
Nevertheless the mayor was too strong
for them. Only Hazard men were
elected officers of the club. The vote
was 81 to 25. The mayor seems to be
able to hold his own ward deepite his
political misfortunes in other parts OF
the city.
George Willig, of Redondo Beach, was
up yesterday. He states that the Dem
ocratic club at the Beach is over 100
strong. 1t will be an important factor
in the coming campaign.
James Campbell, of the fourth super
visoral district, is candidate for the
Republican nomination for supervisor.
He will give his opponent rattling
good fight for the nomination.,
Health Officer MacGowan states that
the attack that the federated trades
have made upon him is entirely without
foundation and unwarranted. He dis
claims all desire or intention of attempt
ing or intending to in any way cast
slur upon organized labor in the recon-
mendations he made to the council for
the appointment of plumbing inspect
or. He is believer in the right OF la
boring men to organize, and thinks that
great good results from the formation of
labor unions. 1.-THE city council creates
the Office of plumbing inspector the
doctor states that it would be absolutely
necessary to appoint union plumber,
as there is no one in the city outside of
that organization competent to fill the
position. The doctor wishes it further
understood that he is not q candidate
for any Office in the gift of the American
people.
