CAN He BE 7RUSTEDi

We recently adverted in these columns
to the chain OF evidence which unmis.
taksbly linked James McLachlan with
the political fortunes OF Hervey Lndley.
His failure TO obey the order of the
court and the plain letter of the law, by
sitting to the bottom the allegations Of
fraud, robbery, extravaganza and gen.
eral abuse in the management OF the
Whittier Reform school, the public in
stitution over which Lindley held kingly
sway; his denomination for district at
torney by a convention controlled by the
Lindley contingent; his appointment az
counsel for the trustees OF the reform
echool, and his afliliation with the ma
chine element of his party, establish
him as tho ally or tho servant OF the
late candidate of the Southern Pacific
for congress-. McLachlsn and Lindley
are well joined parts OF the same mosaic.
Mr.. McLschlan's attitude on railroad
and harbor questions is born OF the
hour. Anyone present at the Republi-
can convention in Music hall when
Lindley's friend in need and friend
indeed" spoke to that body, will recall
how reluctantly he came to the scratch
for San Pedro harbor, and that he was
only moved to do SO because be was be-
tween ''the devil and the deep sea-"
i. O., the lash OF the Times and the
audible murmurs of the delegates in the
convention who were not attsc he'd to
the machine" Mr.. McLachl an is
running for congress on a silver stolen
from the hsrbor plank of his Democratic
opponent. The people do not want a
congressman who must be dragoored
way but one who is straightforward,
enthusiastic champion of their cause,
like George S. Patton.

An Attempt to Murder tho Wealthisst
Celestials in Chicago.

An Attempts to Murder tho Wealthisst
Celestiais in Chicago.
CHICAGO, Nov. 2.-An attempt was
made at an early hour today by an agent
OF the society OF highbinders to assassi-
nate Hip Lung and Sam Moy, the two
wealthiest and most influential China
men in Chicago. and the police believe
the lives of these two well-known celes~
tials were only saved by the accidental
awakening of guard who was stopping
with them in Sam Moy's apartment at
SO Clark street. The watchman found
a well-dressed Chinaman attempting to
force an entrance to the sleeping room,
and by his cries scared the intruder
away. Hip Lung reported to the police
that he had incurred the enmity OF the
highbinders, and had been informed
