SIDEWALK INSTRUCTIONS
Shade Trees Allowed to Go Wholly
Untri.nmed
An Ordinance to the Contrary Notwithstand-
ing-The Police Neglect the Enforce
ment of the Law

The condition of shade trees growing
along the streets throughout the entire
city is such as to have brought forth {
great many complaints, not alone from
visitors, but from pedestrians who have
daily to pass back and forth gong to and
from their places of business. The griev-
ance does snot arise from the number OF
trees, but the manner in which they are
allowed to grow and cover the sidewalks.
In many of the city thoroughfares the
trees grow until their branches nearly
torch the ground. People passing along
the walks are obliged to duck their heads
and pick their way with as much care
almost as il walking through a jungle.
In response to a general outcry for some
reform in the methods of keeping the
public walks. a reporter was detailed to
inquire into the matter and the results OF
his Investigations led to the discovery
that there is a city ordinance intended to
correct such nuiSances but which has
been permitted to become practically a
dead letter. The ordinance referred to
reads as follows:
Whenever any trees. branches, weeds
or hedges are in q condition to interfere
with or obstruct persons passing along
any street the police commissioners shall
direct the chief of police to notify the
owner or person having charge or control
of the premises upon or in front OF which
said trees, brush or hedge grows. to tr I'm
the same within five days after service of
notice.
Thus the matter was found to rest in
the hands of the police. Tracing 1t ill
nearer the point where practical execu-
ton of the law was intended to have
been made. the following notice was seen
posted upon the bulletin board at police
headquarters:
"AIl mem bers 6f the department are
hereby instructed to strictly enforce the
tree trimming ordinance wherever they
may lind il necessary
The above appeared over the signature
of W. c. R oberts, captain of the police.
1t seems, therefore, that the city gov
eminent has made provision for correct
ing such nuisances as neglected side
walks, and that the officials to whom
was intrusted the execution of the ord in
ance have done their duty so lar as Civ
ing instructions is concerned. But there
the thing has dropped. At any rate it is
not carried into effect, and the result is
that many OF the city sidewalks are disa
greeably blocked by overhanging trees.
Ihe ne9lec mentioned is too general to
require specific notice as 20 locality. 1t
prevails to greater or less extent all
over the city. Such places as Montreal
street or Alpine street, between Philadel-
phia street and the Sisters hospital, or
Wall street below Third, South Workman
or Hill street, are sufficient TO indicate
the range of the neglect
No inquiry was made as to whet her
police officers ever patroled the above
named streets. Possibly an investigation
in that direction might have furnished a
solution of the difficulty.

THO ARE 70 Be CHOSEN
A Real List of Possible Police
Commissioners
TOMORROW IS THE DAY
The Selections Are Certain to Be
Made
Both Sides In the Controversy Working Hard
In the Matter Of the Wannack Saloon
License-Bauer Is Confident

Some time tomorrow, probably during
the noon recess. the various members oi
the city council will meet together in
formally for the purpose of selecting
some one prominent Republican citizen
and some one prominent Democratic citi-
zen, or perhaps Louis Luckel, Populist,
in place of the latter, for the two va
cancies which are now and for some time
have been existing upon the board of po-
lice commissioners. Up to this mornin 3
the situation regarding the vacancies
which exist is positively mixed, so mixed,
in fact, as to be nearly impossible of unrav-
elling. There have so far no selections been
made. although the choice among nearly
all of the members of the council has mar
rowed itself down to A.C. Day of the Sec
ond ward, who deals in furniture; William
H. Cook, the Broadway real estate man ;
H. ]. Easton of East Los Angeles all Re-
publicaps, and Charles H. Long, the pro-
duce merchant, and ex-Councilman D..
Ennis, both Democrats, and Louis Luckel
the Populist politician.
The boys who do politics as regular
thing have the situation sized up that the
lucky book reads Day and Long.
Both sides in the controversy over the
liquor license Of Otto Wannack in East
Los Angeles are working hard to make
the best showing before the board on
Tuesday morning. and it is alomst cer-
tain that even if the license is refused
them the Wannacks, instead of giving
up their enterprise, will simply sell liquor
in original packages, as is now done in
nearly all of the leading restaurants of
the city. For the latter purpose city
liquor license is not mandatory.
The Bauer license On Alameda street
will probably not be granted at least not
on Tuesday. although the pressure. both
political and otherwise, may after
time compel recognition on behalf of
Bauer. The latter feels certain of victory
in the end ana has already employed his
own police for duty in rear OF the fence,
where he is the monarch of all he sur
veys. So far the Ministerial union has
not made itself felt in the matter.
