And yet this same increased volume of

And to say that the wage worker

this increased amount of currency-"be-
cause he is now being paid in dear

publishing in it's country correspon.
dence and by private letter accounts
ofialleged disruption and local troubles
in Redondo. referring in particular to
men and gamblers. who were working
great detrlment to the place. BY put
ting the case in this light, those frenl
whose minds the whole emanated en-
listed the sympathies Of some worthy
citizens, who saw no more Ill their pur-
pose than laudable enort to rid the
place of gamblers. These have Ecen
sincere in everything, and have been
led to ally themselves with the malcon-
tents without knowing what the cause
of the trouble really was. Thus has the
petty war been carried on over the
heads of the gamblers, but in reality
with other purposes in view than, SIM
ply to oust an Objectionable class.
The Herald has already published q
correct statement of the situation, and
nothing further concerning the importa-
ton OF political tools, gamblers, etc.,
need be said. The best citizens of Re-
dondo are only too glad of the oppor-
the matter sifted, when the case re-
ferved TO comes to trial. They invite
the fullest investigation of the last city
election, over which all the difficulty
has arisen, and are confident that it will
result In clearing the worthy city off,

against them by unreliable persons, and
further hope to see their city cleared
of all the unpleasant notoriety that it
has gained by this unwise public wrang-
ling over personal and political differ
ences.
It is to be regretted that Redondo,
which has always enjoyed the reputa-
ton of being quiet, well-reEuiated
city, should be held up to public view
In an unfortunate. not to say false, light.
During the present season she has been
unusually prosperous, considering the
times. True. there have been some
characters here whose absence would
nave benefited the place; no more, how
ever, than are usually found in every
town OF its size. That the welfare of the
city should be sacrificed by a faction
of malcontents, under the pretext Of bet
tering conditions, when personal mo-
tives only were the true basis of their
actions, Is indeed unfortunate, and
when the entire matter has been cleared
up, Will only reflect with UNPLEASANT se-
verify upon themselves. Unfortunate-
~, this spiteful work of destroying the
fair name of a city and its officials, to
say nothing Of the incalculable dam
age to its business men, has not been
confined to personal attacks, but has
been conducted through the medium Of
q Journal. which, on account Of pri-
vate grudge against a well-known COR
poration Of this place, has prostituted
Its power as a molder Of public opinion
by wantonly sacrificing a whole COM
munity. =
In conclusion. the writer asks the
readers Of The Herald to decide which
OF these two factions has worked the
greatest detriment to Redondo-the
itinerant gambler, who does not con-
stitute part of the community, or the
people. who rushed foolishly into public

THE TIMES AND REDONDO.

Editor Herald: The necessity of ven-
tilating unpleasant difficulties has by
repeated assaults upon the municipal
government of our fair city been thrust
upon us, and since the matter has al
ready found its way into public print,
it is only just that both sides should
be heard and as correct a statement of
the case as possible be made.
The difference has at length been
brought to a focus in the form of libel
suit for $25000 damages, instituted by
w. j. Hess, q member of the board of
city trustees of Redondo, against the
Times Mirror Publishing company and
w. ]. Browning.
BY the process of law it is hoped to
settle the controversy and by sitting
the matter before an impartial tribunal
place the blame where it rightly be-
longs. All summer the Times has been

THE BETTER CITY GOVERNMENT
LEAGUE ~ 'f

Editor Herald: / find there Is great
dissatisfaction among members Of the
league for better city government over
the action Of the central committee in
deciding that the matter OF members
of the league participating in caucuses,
primaries and conventions of political
parties for selecting candidates for city
offices, and also taking part in the league
convention must be left as a matter Of
Individual conscience" --.
This decision is looked upon as circum-
stantfal evidence that the push Is well
represented on the central committee.
Why does that committee say in its res
o.ution on this subject that It
is expected that many citizens
will ally themselves with the
league and participate only In it, nom

ect that many will take this honorable

pect that many will take this honorable
course and then open wide door for re :
peaters to rush in and act with duplic-
ity?' Is not this bold scheme to render
the efforts Of our best citizens, who
really favor better city government,
ever participated In both a Democr;8ic
and Republican convention held in the
same month to nominate city officers? :?
Most certainly not. None but the dirti-
est of ward strikers and repeaters ever
think of trying to vote at both Demo-
cratic and Republican primaries, and
they do II only as a matter of bargain
and sale.
Is it possible that the League for Bet
ter City Government will commence its
work by countenancing and advocating
one Of the lowest methods of those en-
gagged in politics for revenue only?
This looks a little too much like casting
out devils by Beelzebub.
I have been simple enough to imagine
that every man consenting or asking to
join the league had tacitly pledged him
self to work and act only with that or
ganization. Bulletin No. issued by the
league says: THE committee decided to
plan for Independent nomination OF
full city ticket, irrespective Of action
of the old parties, and to attempt any
thing less was to fritter away the ef-
forts SO splendidly begun. I. . The
endorsement plan, moreover, opens up
endless opportunities for political
manipulation" Now the committee has
stultified itself by virtually recommend
ing,a very wide opening for the political
manipulations 1t had formerly and for
mally deprecated.
The committee tacitly invites all polit-
ica1 parties to meet in convention and
make nominations, then come into the
league convention and have a regular
"Donnybrook Fair" trying to get their
respective candidates endorsed. but they
forgot to tell them to bring their She
lalies with them.
AS the league has no constitutional
law governing this important question,
suggest that full meeting Of the
league be called SO we can have direct
legislation on the subject, then, perhaps,
the ruling of the central committee will
be set aside.
