of one week. The charge of dsrespect to
a superior and discourtesy to brother

SATURDAY SPECIAL ELECTION.
The friends of annexation are lying
very low. as they have been ever since the
second campaign for the greater Los An
geles has begun. The election takes place
on Saturday and the general opinion is
that the proposition will this time carry
with it but little opposition. The campaign
in it's favor has this time been still hunt,
the assumption among the friends of an
nexation being that their failure in the
first attempt was largely due to the noisy
tactics of their offensive campaign.
The charge is made that in the first
pointed upon the election board, only Re-
publicans.
THE CHIEF IS ENTERPRIsING
The annual report of the police depart
ment for the year 1895 is out in pamphlet
form. The book contains IA pages of
printed matter, including the roster OF the
department in full. Upon the first page of
the volume is q cut of John NJ. Glass in
full uniform.
Three hundred copies of the report we're
printed at a cost of $3.50. the half-tone
of the chief making the bill for the work
aggregate $25. The council has so far re-
fused to appropriate the money for the
publication in book form of the various
annual municipal reports. and the police
department is the only one which has had
the courage to have the work done upon
it's own hook. The members of the sup
ply committee say that they will not audit
a requistion for the purpose, and the pre-
sumption is that Glass will pay the bill
from his private funds.

ing, addressed to the council:
We desire TO inform you that the four
teen school houses contracted to be built

houses Of said buildings. which we hold
ourselves ready to do at all times.
