MR.. RYAN FOR MAYOR.

The candidacy of Mr.. Ryan involves
no self interest. His personal integrity
IL . sufficient guarantee of good faith
towards the community in which he
live, and the citizens OF Los Angeles can
not afford to repudiste him.
He il q man of acknowledged ability
Q man Of ideas and with executive
ability to put those ideas into
practical operation for the benefit OF the
city. Los Angeles at the present time
is in Q transition state. II 10 q COM

ing with a rapidity that compels extra
ordinary energy on the part Of its ole
ficials to meet the emergencies oon>
stantly arising. Mr.. Ryan. as the chief
executive of the municipality, will not
be found wanting. He is clear headed,
enterprising and safe. He is sufficiently
conservative toereet the requirements
OF the business community, and public
spirited enough to compel by forceful
insistence every improvement that may
rebound to the credit OF the city. Under
the administration of Mr.. Ryan we may
rest assured that Los Angeles will take
no backward step.
His canvass has been conducted upon
lines that avoided all offense, for Mr..
Ryan is, in the best sense of the WORD, a
gentleman. He has appealed to no
prejudice, and presents himself for the
suffrages of his fellow.citizens on his
merits as they have developed during a
long residence in the community. Not
one word to his dstrimept has been ut
tered by his opponents, and the people
have warmly approved OF his efforts in
their behalf in his official capacity.
There is no denial of his ability to adj
minister the affairs of the Office to which
he aspires, with credit to himself and for
the best interests of the city.
There 10 no reason why he should not
receive the solid support of his party,
and there lie every reason why he should
be given the cordial support of every
progressive, photographed citizen of
Los Angeles. His utterances during the
campaign have besn straightforward
and unequivocal. Those who have lis
tened to him have had no difficulty in
ascertaining where he stands ON every
question of public importance-every
question affecting the community in.
terests. In no instance has ainlge OBJ
lection been urged against him on the
score OF impractical theory. Whatever
he has advocated is clearly in line with
the immediate necessities of the city,
and there ia a widespread belief that in
Mr.. Ryan will be found the best mate
rial for the msyoralty-that every in
tsrest will be safe in his hands, and that
. new era of prosperity mill result fro m
his election.

SOMEWHAT PERSONAL.

Richard Croker Of New York Is said to have
at least $500. 900 invested in horses and turf
and breeding property, while his racing stable
contains winners that have earned nearly
5000, 900 for their owner.
D.. Conan Doyle says that this coun try is act

In Chicago he had a strange, weird feeling that
at any moment he might be scalped. But that's
realism, not romance.

William NJ. Springer for congress at the recent

From the New York Evening Post: The Good
overnment club movement makes steady pro-
gress in the city of Buffalo. There were already
seven such cubs before the recent election
and an eighth was organized last week. Those
ints rested in the m ovement realize that their
work has Just begun. 1--WE have elected men TO
Office" said the president of one club last week;
now we've got to watch them." 1t is proposed
that there shall be federation pf the various
clubs, with a view not only to secing that good
men are nominated and elected, but also to
watching the progress of local legislation, en-
forcing the civil service laws, and generally
promoting whatever is for the well-being of
citizens and taxpayers, irrespective of party
politics IL is evident that the example set by
New York in this matter is TO be widely imi-
tated, and that there will be no trouble about
securing abundant support for such clubs
wherever men are r,sdy to break the way.

Tn. voio. of the People.

From the Chicago Herald: In recent news
paper interview, which he sought for the pur
pose OF modifying expressions which he used
in the campaign on tn, subject Of the McKin.
ley tariff, Senator John Sherman said II look
upon the recent election as an endorsement Of
the general protective policy of the Republican
party, AMI the Mckinley act is the best express
sion of that policy the country has ever SEEN"
1t would be edifying If Mr.sherman would pub
fish his views IS 10 the election of 1890, which
was held one month after the enactment of the
Mckinley tariff, and that of 1892, after the
Mckinley act had been in operation two years.
That was he sole issue at both elect ona In
the house elected in 1890 the Republicans had

Is less NJ emil ers than the Democrats will have
in the next house. The general opinion was
that the election Of 1890 expressed the judg.
ment of the people on the Mckinley tariff
which was reaffrmed In 1892. Then how can
the election of 1894 to be an endorsement OF
McK.uleyism?

MR.. RAIDERS RECORD.

Mr.. Frank RAIDER, Republican candi-
date for mayor of Les Angeles, is
strangely silent under the accusation
that he procured his own appointment
on q municipal commission to assess
damages on property in which he was
interested as an owner, thereby violat-
sng the spirit of the law prohibiting the
exercise of such functions by interested
officials. 1t is possible that Mr.. RAIDER
u thnking-that he is devising eome
sort of palliation Of the allegation. If
the records are accurate, however, we
fear that Mr.. RAIDER will experience
more than ordinary difficulty in evading
an issue which, if not satisfactorily ex-
planned, will cost him the vote of every
honest citizen heretofore adhering to
his political interests.
1t is charged against Mr.. RAIDER that
he desired to succeed j. w. Hinton, one

to by candit ates in New York is one from Ben

New York Post: The results OF the election
in Nebraska and California show the growing
independence OF voters. In each state a ma.
jority of the ballots cs st on the congressional
issue were for the Republican candidate. while
in each the Republican nominee for governor
failed of election because some thousands of
voters in his party who supported the rest of
the ticket would not sustain the man whose
name stood at the head. The Australian ballot
law help, very much in encouraging this spirit
of Independence. The chairman of the Demo-
cratic state central committee in Kentucky
frankly acknowledges this effect o: the system.

Los ANGELES THEArER.-Mr. Robert
Downing made his debut in this city
yesterday afternoon in David darrlck.
The audience was small and cold, but
warmed MP slightly in consequences OF
the excellent work done by the COM
pany. There 10 not enough to the play
for an entire entertainment. and Mr..
Lawrence Hanley's persistent appearance
here in The Player, another version OF
the same drama, combined to reduce
public interest. and the consequence
was, as stated, . poor and undemonstra-
tive house.
The role 10 an unfortunate one for Mr..
Downing; his almost portly figure and
his unromantic face do not lend them-
selves we'll to portrayal OF the fsscinat-
ing Garrick whose Romeo and Hamlet
won the love OF the city mans daughter.
His acting, however, was irreproachable.
his meditation being especially pleas
ing. He was at his best in the tender
scenes OF the last act. though his work
when assuming intoxication ct the din
ner was equally pleasing.
Mr.. J. X. Amory, the Squire Chivy,
shared the honors OF the performance
with the star. He made . most de.
lightful picture of the part and was in
imitably funny.
Miss Blair could do little with the
part Of the love sick young Ada Ingot,
for the character is unresponsive to
much but negative manner OF treat
ment. She looked very sweet. and
though she has gained materially in
style and person since her appearance
here with Frederick Warde some years
ago, she has simply added to the attrac.
tions she then possessed.

Los ANGELES THEATRR.-There may
be good grounds for . difference of
opinion regarding the relative values of
The Gladiator by Saumet. played by
Robert Downing lass neght, and Spar
tacus, q drama on the same lines
played formerly by Mccullough, and
probably great many would decide
that the former was not of the literary
merit of the latter. Be that a. it may,
Mr.. Downing made q more than favor
able impression. To be perfectly frank.
he cannot be said to have quite arrived,
in such heroic roles. He 10 robust,
young and talented, and displays great
conscientiousness in his work, and is
painstaking to . marked degree. His
voice 10 charming in its timbre. is under
perfect control, and shows no signs of
wear and tear. He is at his best in
what may be termed emotional, as dis
tinguished from impassioned scenes,
and lie happily devoid of the ranting
which in such roles is go difficult to
avoid. He is not Mccullough az yet,
but is much more than . Frederick
Warde.
Miss Blair was most charming az Neo.
damia, the slave. She did not improve
on the effect OF her appearance in the
first scene, becauee that left no room for
improvement. She has musical voice
that wakes responsive tones from ones
eensibilities. and is possessed OF grace
and ease that are delightful.
