: Col. Chamberlain, as president OF the
g. Federation OF Republican clubs, intro
duced Mr.. S. o. Houghton as chairman
of the evening, and he made short ad-
ddress. He paid some neat compli-
ments to Senator Perkins. referring
pleasantly to his public services, and
then introduced him to the audience.
81, When Senator Perkins advanced to
begin his address he was cheered by the
audience.
The senator paid glowing tribute to
the progress of Los Angeles, q city of
homes and echoolhouses, as he called it..
he first visited the city 25 years ago.
when tho mission was its center, when
the people were indolent and the cattle
rosmed at will. and he contrssted that
picture with the one presented today.
This led him on TO epeak of the state
and its great achievements, and that
citizenship brought its responsibilities.
1t was an important election, be said
which was before the people OF the state,
and it 10 with them to decide whom they
should call to represent them. He be-
lieved Mr.. McLachan would have the
honor to represent this district in con.
gress.
Referring to his personal attitude he
felt he owed everything to the people ol
thu Golden state. and was before those
present to render an account OF his
stewardship.
: The object of government, Senator
Perkins said, is to make people happy
and contented and prosperous. and he
believed all parties meant to be honest.
he was glad to see 80 many ladi %
present. While they were not, perhaps,
10 be burdened with going to the polls
and vote, yet every woman wields an IN
fiuence for good more than 10 men for
bad. Every marriageable woman should
have voter.
The audience laughed at this sally,
and then the speaker adverted to the
political situation of today. Two years
ago the Democratic party for the first
time in 80 years was placed in control
Of both branches of congress- and the
executive, and he held that it must be
| vbeld responsible for what had taken
