IT WAS A LIE.
Frank A. Cattern in No Way Disquali-
fled to Hold a Seat in the Assembly.

The Times has lied again, lied willing
ly, Intentionally and maliciously. 1t as
serted that Frank A. Cattern was dis
qualified to hold seat by residence. For
this story there was not the slightest
foundation. Mr.. Cattern has addressed
the following letter to the editor of The
Herald:
Dear Sir: 1t is stated in the Los An
geles Times of October 18th that I, the
fusion candidate for the assembly in the
Seventy-frst district, am not qualified
as candidate because of not having
lived in the district the length of time
required by law. That statement is alb
solutely untrue, as my residence in the
Seventy first district more than meets
the legal requirements as to residence
for candidate for the assembly of this
state.
I respectfully request The Herald to
correct this misstatement made by the
Times, as such misrepresentation of
fact are calculated to mislead the people
and to divert the minds of the voters of
this district from the true issues involv-
ed in this campaign"

to or who did in anyway oppose their
interests and take stand for the peo-
pie has been promptly killed off, politi-
cally. 1t is about time that the people
arose and asserted themselves. If faith
full public service is to be rewarde1 J with
political death at the dictation Of cor
porate interests the hour has arrived
for everybody to know it.
The Los Angeles Times poses as an
anti-corporation organ. 1t has never
been such. 1t has always done the bid
ding of the allied villainies and will con-
tinue to do so. 1t has not openly cham
pioned the cause of the corporations and
more particularly the Water company,
for to have done so would have destroy
ed its usefulness Bpt covertly and by
subterfuge, abuse OF individuals and
candidates it has performed it's allotted
tasks.
In the approaching municipal cam
paign it will be found where it always
has been in the past.

LORDSBURG FOR SILVER.
Frank A. Cattern Addresses Large and
Enthusiastic Meeting There f- I. ~


large and enthusiastic rally was
held at Lordsburg Thursday night, un-
der the auspices of the Bryan club. The
meeting was held in the town hall, and
when all the adherents of Bryan and
silver assembled standing room was at
premium.
The first speaker of the evening was
Frank A. Cattern, candidate in the Sew
enty-frst district for assemblyman. Mr..
Cattern discussed state and local mat
ters as well as free coinage of Silver and
the railroad funding bill. The large au-
dience listened to his arguments for over
an hour with the closest attention ard.
manifested their approval by frequent
applause.
Joseph Simonds was the next speaker,
and his explanation of the money ques-
ton and sarcastic arraignment of the
Republican party were received with
great enthusiasm by the people. The
cause of Bryan and silver is steadily
gaining ground in this community.

= A SUBSERVIENT TOOL.
The Los Angeles Times Position on the
Water Question Explained


The Los Angeles Times says that after
the national campaign is over 1t will
take position on the water question
but for the present it will remain silent
This is exactly the course the Los An
geies City Water company desires all
the newspapers in the city to pursue
The Herald commenced a discussion of
the water question before the munich
pal nominating conventions were held
1t did so for the purpose of preventing
the said Los Angeles City Water COM
pany from capturing the Democratic
city convention and setting up lot of
dummy candidates who would when
elected, prove to be the subservient
tools of the water monopoly. 1t desired
to arouse the citizens and voters to the
Importance of having men named for
office who demonstrated the fact that
they We're independent of the Water
company and that they would, if elected,
give the people square deal in the mat
ter of establishing city water plant
In this work The Herald, in so far as
the Democratic convention was concern
ed, was successful beyond it's eXpecta-
tions. The Democratic city platform
was as able a document of the kind as
was ever put forth by city convention.
The. convention went further. 1t nom
mated for mayor man whom the water
company bitterly antagonized - M. p
snyder. This gentleman had in the city
council taken stand for the people and
against the monopoly. He was at that
time, by the hired agents of the compa-
ny, threatened with political extinction
by the corporation. But he refused to
be bulldozed and he stood his ground,
obtaining a reduction of the eXorbitant
water rates charged by the monopoly.
During all this time the Times re-
mained absolutely silent on the issue It
mad not one word to say for municipal
ownership. 1t is the organ of the water
company and is tied unto that corpora
tion In such way that it cannot utter
one word unless the water company
gives its consent
When the water company gives the
signal the Times will below forth what
1t is instructed to preach by the cornora
ton. 1t is, bound to oppose the election
or M. L. snyder, as a true and consistent
water company hireling. The Times has
In the past referred to Mr.. Snyder in
terms Of highest praise but conditions
nave changed and now the organ will
be compelled to fight him bitterly along
ITS usual lines-personal abuse and ly-
ing vilification. But it will be of no
avail the people are alive to the issue
and it cannot be changed.
In the Republican city convention the
wafer CoHlpdly Ildue every point 1t de-
sired and sought Later the details in
proof of this will be given. In bringing
this result about the Times assisted to
the best of its questionable ability.
The Times refers to the exposures this
paper is making Of the influence the al
lied yillainies of Los Angeles areseeking
to assert in local politics. The Herald
will continue these exposures right up
to the date Of the city election and there
after.
The allied villainies have controlled this
city through a Republican ring about
long enough. Every man who attempted

great issues. They have become enlight-
cned. They appreciate the hosts which
are arrayed against each other. They
know that there is a superabundance
for every soul, and yet hundreds of
thousands are dependent upon the
charity of their friends and neighbors
for support.
There is just as much-probably more
widespread trouble and discomfort in

An Age of Buttons.

same number. unless a few millions have
been lost in the struggle. says an English
writer
The world has become so accustomed to
buttons that il has forgotten that there
was ever a time when buttons were un-
known. 1t is safe to say that - out of
1ob, if asked to name the date of the first
button, would anticipate the actual date
by several centuries. In the fourteenth
century there We're buttons-but no button
holes. 1t was purely ornamental. lacking
d buttonhole. and the question voluntarily
arises how our ancestors managed to keep
respectfully covered.
Two hundred years ago there were rot
many buttons in the world as could be
found in a small old clothes shop today.
and even those were made by hard. IL

manufactory was established. IN that
year the famous Soho works were opened
at Birmingham, where steel buttons were
made of srch beauty and finish as to ccm-
mand price of 81 ~ gross. or Il apiece.
