settled that matter with a little riot act

after the row."
Continuing, Mr.. Masters informed the
HERALD scribe that he had called at
L,ndley's headquarters, but had not
met him yet as be was out when he
called. He was satisfied OF one thing,
however. the general outlook was good.
as he had met since coming to town a
great many of the old railroad crowd
and had exchanged mods with Senator
h. B. Carpenter, Frank House, James
McLschlan and hoet of other members
of the railroad ring who have done bus-
mess at Sacramento in days gone by.

as the head and front of the ''smooih
guys" in the senate, was 80 plentifully
decorated with adiectives chosen out
side OF the good book that it will not
bear repetition. MIR. Masters 10 we'll in
formed on oil of the important points in
the present,struggle between the voters
OF the state and the Southern Pacific
Railroad company. and apparently
knows the mission OF all Of the etates-
men from the north who are now visit
ing this city.
In his own language Mr.. Masters ex.
planned that Senator Carpenter was
sent down here by "Bill' Stowe and
"Collis p" to learn why Webbsr and
Lindley have 'slipped the cut" on the
platform adopted at Sacramento, which
said nothing about the railroad question
or any d-d San Pedro hnrbor.
"Collis p" (mespirg President Hunt.
! ington), is dead sore on George Patton.
! He will raise HI il he gets elected, and
'.old Dick" is on the ground TO see that
Lindley and Webber don't ''doubls
cross" Burns and Stowe and let Mc.
Lachan commit himself too far 10 his
statements about the harbor business.
Mr.. Masters is certain that there amt
u man in the state who can equal the
senator twiating the Englieh language
90 as to make it say one thing and mean
another, and citee the celebrated South
ern Pacific railroad tax bill which SEN
ator Carpenter introduced as convincing
plo-f of the fact.
Another old.timer who is we'll known
to Mr. Masters and with whom he has
paesed the time of day since Monday
last Is "Bill" Norway OF Santa Barbara,
who has been in close consultation with
Lindley, McLachlsn and Webber in ref.
erence to Estee's fight. There are lot
OF land deals in the state that are mixed
up and he needs the governor to help
him out. "You see." continued the
laxative Mr.. Masters, 81 was a door.

a whole lot OF state land grabs that wen,

Bill ia dead stuck" ON having Me
Lachlan do Patton up, as he says he can
use him to good advantage when the
new survey OF mineral land in the dis
trict is published.
He wants to find some good workers
to 20 up to Santa Barbara and Venturs
counties and work the Spanish vote fo
Estee and McLachlan, and has hired
two already, one to watch the other, tc
see that they don't get the double crosn
because OF the A. P. A. business.
Masters informed the scribe in strio
confidence that his little trouble witt
the San Francisco police had been fixet

Heating, who are close to Senator Ma
