THE TRICKS HEARD FROM
They Ask That the City Discontinue Its
Boycott
The Return OF His Cheek to j. e. White
Gives to the Fricks Their
Opportunity

Frick Bros. the sewer contractors, want
tho EN- bargo removed which was placed
upon the firm by the city some time as' =,
the result OF alleged defective work in the
construction of the Hollen book sewer.
The Fricks were, with J. E. White, the
contractors upon the latter work, and
when the Job was declared to have been
not according to the specifications, the
sewer was ordered repaired, the city pay
ing the bill. A rule was then adopted by
the council that until the Fricks and
White REIN bursed the city for the repairs
upon the sewer neither was to have any
more public work. J. 4. White forwarded
his share of the bill to the city clerk,
his check being, contrary to the wishes of
the sewer committee, returned to him in
full, after some considerable parleying.
Yesterday Frlck Bros. filed the following 6
document.
The Honorable Council of Los Angeles
Gentlemen: We notice in the proceed
ings OF your honora bic body of last Mon
dav, August 10Th. that you passed an or
der whereby Mr.. J. f. White was author
ized to receive back certain check (not
certified to) which he deposited with the
city, under protest, on account OF the
alegei detective work done on the Hol-
lenbeck arroyo sewer.
Said return of check being based upon
the ground that as said check was not
money or had not been converted into
money, therefore no deposi5 was made
by him for the alleged bad work done.
As q certain resolution was adopted by
your honorable body some time since.
which denied Mr.W White and ourselves the
privilege of being awarded any more con-
tracts until we paid into the city treasury
a certain amount of money for and on ac
count of some alleged defective work
terested in constru citing.
Now, as Mr.. White has been allowed
during this controversy to receive con-
tracts at the hands OF your honorable
body and under the same circum stances
as covers our case. we feel at this time
that it would not be asking too much for
your body TO reconsider the action taken
whereby said resolution was passed, and
place us in the same position which we
occupied before the passage of the same.
The water supply committee yesterday
filed the following:
In the matter of the petition asking
that four-inch water main be extended
to Ninth and Alan eda streets, down Ninth
street. we recommend that the petition be
granted, and the CLERK instructed to noti-
fy the water company to lay said main.
In the matter of the petition asking
that the City Water company be instruct
ed to place q four-inch water main On
Bonsallo avenue, we recommend that
said petition be granted. and the cleik be
instructed to notify the water company
to lay said main.

WANNACK BROTHERS LICENSE
Regarding His Proposed biological and Botani-
cal Gardens

In conversation yesterday with Mr.. Odo
Wannack regarding his proposed estab-
lishment in East L,s Angeles, he said:
The opposition TO my plan to maintain
q hrst rate garden and musical pavilion
at the end of the Downey avenue line
comes from a class of Interested persons
who have friends that desire to embark
In the same business, or who wish me to
buy their silense. Now, as to this class
OF people. have only 10 say that | utter

ing it to be good place for investment.

and do not propose to do SO. shall buy

improve it by adding costly buildings
and beautifying their surroundings. For
the benefit of the public | shall maintain
the best musical talent that | can pro-
cure. NV botanical and geological attrac-
tons will be worthy the study and pa
tronage of the refined and educated

| shall maintain at all times perfect good

munity from the low or Objectionable
classes. 1t stands to reason that | would
not go to the expense OF providing sur
roundings which will appeal only 10 the
re fined classes if | were catering to the
patronage of the rough clement. That
clement can be drawn without those at
fractions. 1t only seeks isolation and Sc
curty from arrest, and any obscure dive,
no matter how remote. is sufficient for
its purpose. But the class which | de-
sire to attract can only be drawn by care

by providing thoroughly high toned and

thing is provided which the best class of
citizens will patronze literally, alike for
pleasure ana profit
Speaking OF the opposition Of certain
class of unscrupulous zealots who are
seeking. by false representations. to in
jure the character of Wannack brothers
Mr. Wannack said: II regard that class
of people as being entirely bameless. SO
far as motive is concerned. As a rule.
they are an unsophsticated class who
know nothing of the world, and who bit
terly oppose all persons who do not agree
with them in all their fanaticisms. Their
methods are lower than would be resorted
to by highwaymen, but their brain ca
pacity is so small that they must be pitied
rather than blamed for their errors. :"

CAHUENGA LEMON GROWERS
A Meeting at Which They Determ Inc {
Organize


Organize
Last Thursday evening meeting OF
the citizens of the Cahuenga valley was
held at The Pass school house. Rev.
Daniel Reed occupied the chair, and Mr..
P. q. Beveridge performed the duties of
secretary. The principal purpose of the
call for the meeting was to obtain the
views OF the lemon producers of the val
ley as to the expediency of forming a
lemon growers association, having for
its object the securing OF uniform pick
ing. grading, curing and packing lemons,
as well as their most profitable market
ing, under common brand. After the
reports of the several coin:, ittees on
water supply. roads, etc, the secretary
read the constitution and bylaws of the
Lemon Growers Exchange of Ontar o.
All the members present eemed these
most excellent plan of organization for
the Cahuenga exchange. Therefore, on
motion, committee of four was appoint
ed to make few changes in them in re-
gard to name, ETC., and report the same
for consideration and adoption at the next
meeting. Mr.. +. J. Moll, Sr. suggeste
that the association be known as the
Cahuenga Lemon Exchange, and the
name was on motion adopted. The o.
ganization will soon be incorporates un-
der the laws of the state. The following
named gentlemen present signiiied thei r
desire to become members of the ex-
change: Charles Allen, =. T. Beyeridge,
+. ?, Brown, j. Il. Bennett, NJ. J.
Bradley, c. Cole, s. Cole, Ct. T. Cover,
Thomas Ham brook, f. C. Howard. f.
G. Harrington, r. H. Jones, Il. i. Lyons,
+. J. Moll ST.. Jacob Miller, Rev. Daniel
Reed, E. S. Rishel. s. NJ swallow, Herve
Friend and W. Cole. The meeting ad-
journed until the 18th Of next month.
The lemon growers of the valley who
were not pre- sent at the me citing will be
notified of the formation OF the exchange
and given an opportunity of joining the
organization. The Cahuenga valley is
pre-eminently the land of the lemon. The
trees yield enormous crops of.high quality
fruit. That this fact is becoming known
is made evident by the great increase in
acreage each year devoted to its produc.
tion. The Cahuenga lemon is unexcelled
in keeping qualities. They not only
cure we'll but stay cured when marketed.
The valley is not too near nor too DIS
tant from the ocean, and the well temper
ed sea breeZes have a most beneficial
effect upon the fruit. There are but few
localities in the state where the lemon
can be successfully grown, and the
Cahuenga valley Is without doubt one Of
the best OF them.
