Trouble Among Republicans
Over Lind1ey's Reception.

Hon. Max Pepper, chairman of the
Democratic state central committee,
will arrive in Los Angeles on Saturday
morning from San Francisco. Mr.. Pop
per comes south at this time to hold
consultation with prominent Democratic
leaders in this end of the state as to the
situation and the outlook. He expects
to receive some valuable pointers from
the gentlemen who have been called to
meet with him, as to what is necessary
to be done, go far as the state organiza-
tion is concerned, to further the inter
ests of the Democratic party in the
southern counties.
1t is the intention of the Democratic
state central committee to make an ac-
tive and vigorous fight in this end OF the
state this year. and the time was GER
tainly never more auspico us. With this
end in view, and to facilitate work, the
state committee will in all probability
establish headquarters in this city also.
From these headquarters the intention
is to handle the fight in 30 far as South
ern California is concerned. 1t is to
learn what the sentiment of the local
Democracy is as to this move that Mr..
Pepper visits Los Angeles. A number
of leaders we're introduced yesterday,
and asked their opinion. They all
looked upon it favorably, and Mr.. Pop
per will find, when he arrives that there
is unanimous request for the state
committee to open headquarters in Los
Angeles. This recognition OF the i'm
portance OF the vote in this part of the
state will be the first ever taken by
political party.
THE LINDLEY RECEPTION.
This evening the much. cracked up re-
ception by the Republican clubs of the
city viii be given to Candidate Hervey
Lindley, at the Lincoln club. There has
always been some jealousy existing be-
tween the Union league and the Lincoln
club. As it is now, Lincoln club mem,
Der stands poor show of getting any of
the official pap, while on the other hand
Union Lacquer is strictly in it. When
it was decided to give the reception to
Mr.. Lindley at the Lincoln club rooms,
the Union league boys felt very cold
about it. 1t is said that they will
not participate heartily in the
reception as they consider it altogether
too much of recognition of the Lincoln
club. There are still others who will
not participate in the reception at all.
Mayor Hazard will not be there TO talk
feelingly of the local parks, as he did at
Santa Cruz. General Bouton, it is said,
will be conspicuous for his absence, as it
is also claimed will Col ]. Frank Burns.
In fact, there will be quite number of
local Republican leaders who will be
unable to attend the reception, owing to-
pressure of business. Nevertheless,
there will be merry throng on hand.
DEMOCRATIC CENTRAL COMMITTEE MEETING.
There will be meeting of the Demo-
cratic county central committee prompt
ly at 10 O'Clock this morning, at the head
quarters of the committee, 1151a South
Spring street. The question of fusing
with the Peoples party will come up for
consideration, and action will be taken
one way or the other.
THE JUDGES ALL AT PLAY.
A number Of parties went to the court
house yesterday afternoon to secure
their final papers. Not single superior
Judge was on hand, though, to give the
ioreign-born resident an opportunity to
60 through the necessary forms. Six
superior judges, and court business i'm
peded because of the absence of the
judges from their posts of duty, ia liable
to cause comment.
TAMMANY CLUB MEETING.
The Tammany club held meeting
last evening at their club rooms, 115%
South Spring street. The attendance
was large, and number of business
matters were attended to. 1t was de-
cided to hold another meeting one week
from next Thursday evening. At that
time a number of speeches will be made
by leaders including Stephen M. White,
Hon. r. F. Del Vale, George ]. Denis,
and others.
A REPUBLICAN PARTY LEAGUE.
A political headquarters has been
opened up in the Hotel Nadeau, which
is causing considerable comment, and
which seems to be surrounded with
mystery. The headquarters are in
charge of George Atwood and Frank
Cherry, two well-known Republicans.
They announce that the gentlemen they
represent propose to see to it that in
the future there is purity in the politics
OF Los Angeles city and county, and
that with this end in view the rooms
were opened. There are Republicans,
though, who scarcely believe that this /
is the true reason for going to the ex-
pense of hiring two expensive rooms in
the Nadeau. They are worried, and do
not know what to make of it. In the
meantime Messrs. Cherry and Atwood
merely smile and look mysterious.
CoLoRED DEMOCRATS.
The colored Democrats met at 2l4 |
Requena street, with R Brown in the

urging the colored voters to consider
how badly they have been treated at
