When the assemblege REACHED. the
council room the band played Annie
Laurie, and the carnival officers in
dulged in full blown ballet dance that
would have made Fannie ElIsler blush
with envy. whereat the packed galleries
cheered and cheered again, and the
thousands in the street took up the cry.
Mayor Rowan and President Teed
were seated on the roetrum and the
council ranged in the back row of seats.
City Attorney Dunn ordered the earn
ival prisoners to appear at the munich
pal bar and read the formal complaint.
just then Frank Thomas, who was ar
rayed in ballet costume, made a dive
for the rostrum and throwing his arms
around the mayors neck Whispered in
his ear: "I've made a mash and am
free," shouted the fair Frank Rs he
pirouetted across the room.
THE nErrNar MAnr
Don Henrico Hazard attired as a cow
boy then submitted the following docu-
ment as q defe nse:
To the Mayor and Common Council the Board
of Education, and all lesser lights of the
city Of Los Angeles:
Whereas, 1t has been satisfactorily
shown that the only proper, legally con-
stituted and authentic government OF
the city OF Los Angeles, county OF Los
Angeles. state OF California, is composed
of la fiesta carnival, and that they are
entitled at this time to take possession
OF said city government of Los Angeles,
for the reason that the present mayor
thereof, the city council and at least the
"solid six" OF the board of education
have been guilty of such hagrant abuses
in their respective official stations az to
forfeit the respect of all mankind, and
especially of the faithful subjects OF her
majesty, the queen Of the carnival; and
Whereas, The aforesaid members Of
the carnival are entitled under our con-
stit1tion to take possession of said
off 1es and conduct the same during the
carnival week, for the reasons hereinbe.
fore stated:
Now, therefore, 1, the undersigned,
judge of court of competent and un-
questioned jurisdiction of the county OF
Los Angeles, state of California, do COM
mapd the chief of police and all hire
lings and menials, including police COM
missioners, to desist from arresting or
in any way interfering with the authcri-
ty OF said carnival government. And in
the event that any OF the aforesaid off,
GERS should be 80 presumptuous as to
arrest any of the members of laid carni
val government, l do command him or
them, under penalty OF the pain that
will surely follow, to bring all such sub.
lects forthwith to my chamber at the
court house in the city Of Los Angeles,
to the end that they may be speedily re-
leased, to again resume control of the
city government, which has been
brought into public disrepute by the
present officers thereof.
In witness whereof | have hereunto
affixed my name, and Trow bridge II.
Ward, who aspires to greater honors,
has attached seal that should inspire
every officer with awe who beholds it.
All this is done in good faith.
