Crane-Mullen be damned. He'd
boycott me before he'd patronize me.

(Exeunt.)
Lindley-I don't know whether that
fellow 10 spy on US or q traitor to the
other eide. | want to say that the South
ern Pacific and BUNS are anxious about
who goes to the Legislature. The state
convention said nothing on the railroad
question. This was in the programme,
Tor the railroad didn't want anything
said OH that subject. Like the confed-
crates. Huntington wants to be ''let
alone" We must have men who will
not legislate on this subject at all.
Simpson wants to go to the senate. We
couldn't approach him in the assembly !;
We didn't dare try it. The Populists
will have q good many members in the
legislature and they're hell on railroads.
The Examiner ia savage on the Southern
Pacific and the Democrats will go with
the Populists on that question. We
must have Republicans who'll fight all
railroad legislation. Pm afraid Simpson
won't do it. Ling is candidate against
him. and we can give him the city dele
gates.
Arnold-He can have the Ninth ward.
Webber-pll give him the Eighth.
Smith-I1l pledge him the First.
Willis is for him and 80 is Flint.
Lindley-Mac., can't you give him
some votes in the Pasadena delegation :?
MaoLachlan-Some OF the boys don't
want Simpson, but l am almost afraid
to try it. II it was found out it would
hurt me.
Lindley-You ought to take some
risks for tue Southern Pacific, az it put
up money for your election.
Arnold-It would be hazardous for
Mac to antagonize Simpson. The other
senator will be all right. Androus is a
good mixer and plays on all sides. He
wants a new county, and he'll do what
ever is wanted 10 get it.
Lindley-That's not an easy district
TO carry. The Populists have nomin-
ated strong candidate and the Demo-
Gratis may take him up; but Androus
can be relied on, and it's the best we
can do.
Webber--My assembly district is
Democratic; and as we can't elect, L
favor nominating an anti.machine man,
reIormer. If there's one in the district.
Pm for giving the other side every
nomination where we can't elect.
Lind!ey-That's right; but we want
officers who have patronage. Mac. your
assembly district bas three candidates.
McLschlan-Yes, Hahn of Pasadena,
Msllick OF Lancaster, and Wyss Of Santa
Monica. Arthur, Rose and Bill Swan
will do up Hahn.
Lindley-Mellick lives where there are
only q few people, and we can't gain
many votes by nominating him. He's
bad on the railroad question. Wyee will
stand in, for the railroad ia everything
to Santa Monica. He's not much of a
fellow. but he stood by US at Sacramento
and we'd better support him.
Gard-Pasadena is 80 damned high
toned that Wyse may not suit.
Arnold-Pasadena will do anything
for McLachlan; he's favorite son.
Lindley-We don't want Bulla. He's
another of those fellows we couldn't ap-
pronch; the railroad didn't like it. I'm
| less tdo better for them than did two
years ago, Ill lose my job
McLachlan--I have arranged with DR..
Cochran to dispose of Bulls and for Her.
vey to regsin control OF the Third ward.
The doctor is to play the role OF peace
maker and get nolid delegation OF the
ward for sn assemblyman from that
ward. He will divide the Second ward
on ssse mblymsn by giving the Third
ward to Blaisdell for supervisor and
Wright for county surveyor. Bacon and
Dan Field are working with him.
Bacon ia TO be president OF the conven-
ton and Field councilman. The doctor
has got Munson 10 withdraw as a candi-
date for supervisor. He had been
slated for that place, but BullA has to
be beaten. The doctor, | repeat. is sct-
ing as peacemaker.
Gard Blessed are the peacemakers
When did the doctor take upon himself
that character? [ have never known
him to do anything for the party or the
public unless there was some opening
for the doctor to come in. Are you sure
he hasn't some interest to promoter
McLachlsn-The doctor only expects
that we will nominate a treasurer who
will deposit the money in his bank. He
wants to make his bank the leading one
in the city.
Gard-I thought he would want
something if he became a pacemaker.
| Who does he want?
MacLachlan-Flem ing.
Gard Pasadena man. Does
Pasadena want everything?
MacLachlsn - No, not everything
Fleming came to Los Angeles with Ban
bury and has remained here ever since.
Lindley We can't take Day for
treasurer, anyhow. DIR. Cochran can
lay out Bula and give US Blaisdeil and
Wright. I'll be content We've got to
pay Wright for etalding by US ut Sacra
mento, and we must have control OF the
board OF supervisors,
MacLachlan-We want Woodward O.
Lordsburg. We must pay Guy. That's
what we agreed to at Sacramento.
Gard-Woodward ia damned old fos.
sil. He lives away on the east line O
the county. He's rich and don't wan
the Office for any but a selfish purpose
And if the county ia divided and it'll
| likely to be-he'll be in new county.
Lindley-We promised Guy, and thai
must be kept. We can manage Wood
ward and if we get Blaisdell we can gel
Hanly, and have board that won't be
so damned nipgardly as the present one
We want one that will be liberal In al
lowing deputies and clerks, 30 that we
can provide for our workers. The ma.
chine can't run unless the wheels are
creased. Money and patronage are
what carry elections.
Webber-I shall want a good many
fellows taken care of.
Lindley--If we can get all the Offices
that have patronage we can take care of
good many fellows.
Gard-I don't believe Pendleton can
be nominated in my assembly district.
It's reformers' district and it's doubt
iul if We can control it.
Lindley--Pendleton is all right for the
railroad but he's too lazy to be OF any
account, except he's popular with the
