San FrAncisco for tins reasorl that no has
10 axe TO grind, and does not expect to

dino, who will be- the speaker OF the
house.
Mr.. Weyee wss seen by o HERALD
representative. yes sterday, and asked his
preference for United States senator
Il ahall stand by my pledge to vote
for the reelection Of Senator Perkins,"
replied Mr.. Weyse. 81 do not agree
with him on the question OF harbor
for Southern California, being resident
OF Santa Monica and naturally inter-
es.ed to see barbor at that place. But
our difference OF opinion 10 this respect
will not influence my vote on the eena-

instructions of the county convention
In regard to tina hsrbor proposition.
may state that l want harbor for
Southern California. and il We cannot
get one at Santa Monies, l shall be in
favor of the one at San Pedro"
"Suppose that the caucus fails to
agree upon a candidate for United
Stated senator, who would be your esc-
ond choice on third or fourth ballot?"
was asked.
II have not given that subject any
thought, as I consider that Senator Per-
kips will surely bs reelected. However.
If such an emergency should arise,
shall be guided solely by the efficiency
of the candidates whose names will be
presented. As long as Perkins is in the
fight I shall stand by him and I know
tho entire delegation feels as l do on this
question"
NEW BILLS TO BE INTRODUCED.
Being asked If he had any bills ready
for introduction. Mr.. Weyee said: "The
only bill that have prepared ia the
estray bill. 1t provides for the inn
pounding Of stray animals by the county,
where the municipalities have no pound
keeper. Many complaints have been
made by farmers in the country that
their stray animals can not be found.
unless they advertise for them and
often offer rewards, and the purpose OF
this bill is to appoint county pound
keepers. whose fees ehall be fixed by
law. and from whom they can get the
necessary information without the pub
lication of notices."
"Have you any other legislation in
mipd that is Of Importance to Southern
California;"
81 have been told that's bill is being
prepared in the north locking toward
the purchase of tract of land for
camping grounds for the yearly eucamp-
ments of the National guard. Ii such
10 the case l shall prepate a milsr bill
for our own section. The state is too
large to have only one such ground and
| think that i. the northern section is
entitled to its own encsmpmeut grounds
wa should have the same facilities for
our troopa."

OF counties for the construction OF rail-
roads?'
