IT is FATED.
Owens Points the Way to Bryan's
Election.

Those who are superstitious have
something to think about in connection
with the presidential election. 1t was
predicted three years ago by girl grad
uate of the state normal school at
Greensboro, N, c., that Bryan would
be president. The Witch of Salem, who
prophesied the election of Harrison in
1888 and Cleveland In 1892, declares that
Bryan Nvill carry Ohio and be elected;
also that good times will follow. The
Nebraskan was presented early in the
campaign with the left hind foot of a
graveyard rabbit, which in North Caro-
lima is the symbol of good luck, the same
as was given to Jim Corbett while on the
way to meet Sullivan at New Orleans.
An Indiana man has sent the great cam
paigner the only four-leaf clover of the
campaign. Another remarkable thing
Is that heaven sent a storm before Tom
Reed to Los Angeles, and the amount
of rain that fell, as reported officially.

receiving the fees provided by law to
be paid to term trial jurors.
1t has always been customary to pay
jurors fees known as constructive mile
age in lieu of the per diem which Is not
allowed when the juror is excused for
one or more days.
Mr. Waldron's demand, which amount
ed to about $95 per month, including his
per diem, was refused on the grounds
that he did not make the trip every
time he was excused during the term
of about four months; and Mr.. Waldron
was compelled to bring suit in order to
substantiate his claim, although all like
claims made by others were being al
lowed at that time and are yet allowed
in accordance with law and justice.
The case was compromised without
Mr.. Waldron's consent by his attorney
Mr.. Blair, now deceased, who accepted
pay for the actual trips made by Mr..
Waldron from his home at Neenach to
Los Angeles and return and who re-
leased the county from the claim of
constructive mileage.
At that time the courts had not decid-
ed that constructive mileage should be
allowed, but Judge Mckinley has since
so decided, thus fully justifying Mr.
Waldron in his claim.

AT THE PAVILION

Last night at Painters hall the Eighth
Ward Bryan club was called to order by
Mr.. A. L. Apffel. After short address
by the acting president the meeting was
conducted in the French language and
Mr.. Jean Apion was selected temporary
president. A. l.. Apffel acted as tenn
porary secretary. A motion was made
to call a meeting next Sunday, November
1st at 1880 pm, when permanent Or
ganization will be effected. After the
business of the club was finished Mr.
VIM. Mead and James Hanley' were in
troduced to the French American citi-
zens, when they made short speeches on
silver and Bryan. Capt Bilaude made
some remarks in the French language,
advocating the election of the whole
Democratic ticket. Mr. S. e. Fulton en-
tertained the club with well worded re
marks on the needs of all citizens to
support the standard of Bryan and the
election of the whole ticket. Mr.. Jean
Apion made some telling remarkson the
questions of the day, after which Mr..

THE SILVER VETERANS.

The Union Veterans Bryan club met
last night and laid out the work for the
balance of the time intervening between
now and election day Some of the mem
bers will escort the committee of the
Republican Silver club to the Soldiers
Home this afternoon. At l pm. they
will start from Fourth andspring streets
to take the electric car and meet the
speakers, Gen. Sargent and Mr. Earl
Rogers, who will address the veterans at
the home.
On Saturday the club will march to
the wigwam in body. On Monday an
escort will be furnished Governor Budd
and in the evening the last meeting at
the wigwam will be attended in a body.
On election day it is intended to stand
guard in the different precincts of the
city over the rarest jewels bestowed
upon free men, i.e., an honest ballot, a
true count and a correct report of the
votes cast to the powers that be.
While the work laid out is pretty hard
for those of whom the great majority
have passed the half century mile post,
the patriotism cultivated in the last
thirty-f1ve years will enable these old
men to stand again in the brunt of the
battle for right and truth until victory
be won.

The Democrats of this county and

for the reason that he is against the Pa

he has been the helpmate of Coils =.

that they do not desire to continue him

usefulness.
The wanton and lying abuse of Bar

for McLachlan. The paper says he
is "chump." Mr.. Barlow may not he
an intellectual giant of the vast mental
caliber of James McLachlan, but he
is a man of principle, of decided convic-

goes to make him a power for good in

READY FOR BUSINESS.
The Democratic City Central Commit
tee Organizes.

The Democrats intend to make the
most energetic local campaign in Los
Angeles city that has been made for
Years. The party is thoroughly en-
Unused over the prospects for the elec-
ton of the ticket. M. P. Snyder, the
nominee for mayor, is assured of elec-
ton.
When the city committee met last
evening sixty of the seventy-four mem
bers were present in person. 1t was
an enthusiastic meeting, and there was
remarkable unanimity Of action.
Chairman Martin Marsh called the
meeting to order and announced that the
rst order of business was the election
of chairman of the city committee.
M. w. Conklin placed in nomination
for chairman Telfair Creighton.
j. w. Hellman, D. Neuhart and several
others seconded the nomination. 1t was
then made by acclamation.
]. H. Melville was unanimously elect
ed secretary. The matter of an assistant
secretary was left open until future
meeting.
A motion was made that the chairman
be authorized to appoint an executive
committee Of nine members, one from
each ward, either in the committee or
outside of 1t, at the discretion of the
chairman after consultation with the
candidates. The matter went over until
the next meeting.
The designations of w. f. Hughes as
the nominee for councilman in the Fifth
ward and j. e. Young as candidate for
member of the board of education in
the same ward were read
iChe resignation of John Brink as the
nGMinee for councilman in the Third
ward, filed several days ago, was read
and telegram from Mr.. Brink with
drawing his resignation was read also
with it.
Mr.. Brink withdrew as the candidate
with the understanding that he was
ineligible under the charter. But there
seems to be a question as to whether or
not the charter provision requiring
councilmen to be two years a resident
of the ward is constitutional or not.
That point is to be decided next Mon
day. Now Mr.. Brink withdraws his res
ignation until the matter be decided.
On motion the matter of Mr.. Brink 8
resignation was laid over for one week.
Mr.. Conklin moved that a law commit =.
tee of five members be appointed to
confer with the executive committee on
points of law. The motion prevailed.
The designations from the Fifth ward
nominees were accepted.
The Fifth ward convention not having
adjourned sine die 1t was called to meet
next Wednesday evening at New Turn
verein hall at 1880 p. m. to nominate a
candidate for the council and the board
of education.
The committee then adjourned until
1880 p. m, Wednesday, November 4th.

Who Cures
Weak Men

After you have read what is claimed for
the many remedies advertised for the cure
of weakness in man, after you have noted
the counter boasts of the big quacks in
medicine. and considered the great work
which they claim to be doing for science
and humanity, you wonder how 1t is every
weak man in the world has not already
been made strong. Surely such muftitudes
of cures as they promise must quickly
absorb all the subjects ready to be worked
upon--if they cure. The fact that thou
sands of men have tried all of them. one
after another, in turn, and finally given up
in despair proves that they do not cure;
the stronger fact that in nine cases out of
ten after the medicine has failed they
finally tell their patients that the only
cure for them is an electric belt, which
they have for sale. is proof that they
start at the wrong end-medicine first, and
electricity as last resort. Then what
does cure weak men? The answer is
plain. Those who have had experience
with all sorts Of treatment, and have finally
been cured, vouch for DR.. Sanden's Elec-
trio Belt. Start right by using it first, and
there will then be no need for drug treat
ment, of which so many unfortunate suf-
ferers have sickened. If you do not use
electricity at first you will have to in the
end, for nothing else will restore the power
of the nerves and vital organs.
w. r. Chaffin, Chatsworth Park, CAL.
says: 1.-The No Belt that 1 purchased
from you for Kidney Trouble and Weak
ness has cured me after the failure of doc
tors and their numerous remedies, which
l used much to my sorrow. l feel grateful
to you for what your Belt has done for
me, and in sending you this letter trust
that many others will receive benefit from
your treatment"
Dr. Sandens Belt always cures because
it is applied on the right principle-restor-
ing vigor and nerve force. The book. Three
Glasses of Men," will be sent free, closely
sealed. upon application.
