HE WANTED TO KNOW
Director McInerny Asked Janitress
About Her Position

Miss IneZ Tipia, who resides at S2S
Castelar, street, was for fourteen years
the janitress of the, school on that street.
She does not now hold that position, al
though her removal cannot be traced TO
the work of a wouldbe corruptionist.
It seems to have ben regular, although
shdsent petition signed by number of
the best-known people of that ward to
the board requesting that she be re-
tanned.
One little incident which may be signi-
cant occurred to her early in June While
she was about her work Director Me-
Inerny came to the school building and,
after looking at the several rooms, ap
preached the janitress and engaged her
in conversation.
"He asked me how I was getting
along" said she last night, 'and then he
asked me several other questions-how
much work l had to do and what means
of earning living I had and what my
salary was. Then he said Did you ever
have to pay for your pcsition?' l told
him did not and that l would not, even
if I lost the place. I got angry and ans
wered hin, quick, for the question made
me angry. He did not say any more
then, but soon afterward left

them pay for their positions will per-
haps never be known. 1t has been shown
that several principals were thus ap-
preached and at least one poor janitof
had to make payment.
Thus far only one of the lady teachers
has admitted that she, too. was made
the victim Of the corruptionists. After
years of service she was dropped from,
fused to pay for her place.
| Miss Ernestine L. Wrachold, for six
years a teacher in the city schools, re-
sides with her invalid sister at 1928 Lon
don street. where she has purchased q
home and was trying to pay for the samc
from her salary, her only means Of sup
port. Having served long and accepta-
bly, and thinking her position secure she
had employed much of her time in i'm
proving and beautifying her home and
its surroundings
Not long after the election of the new
board Miss Machold was approached
by neighbor, Russell II. Grey, who
asked her If she was willing to put up
money in order to retain her position.
She told him certainly not.
WELL" said he, its money PROPOSE
ton. Can't you procure the money!"
mo; could not consider such thing
for a moment. Why should be asked
to pay anything to keep my position? l
have taught here for years and no fault
has been found with my work"
But, what will you do. Miss Mach
old? Your teaching is all that you have
to depend upon"
Il know it. But sister and will have
to starve first. / will never pay any
thing for such purpose"
Then, I'm afraid you will give UP
teaching
"Then will give it up
Miss Machold endeavored to ascer-
tain who it was that had commissioned
Grey to make this proposition, but on
this point he was not disposed to be
communicative The amount named as
necessary to enable Miss Machold to
retain her position was at first $780, At
terward it was intimated that SIS might
be adequate, and finally it was offered
to make her secure on payment of So.
All of which offers were Indignantly
repelled.
Miss Machold has many friends who
have used their influence with the board
to have her reinstated A pc
tition was circulated where she
last taught and it was signed
by the parents of every scholar
who attended her school, with perhaps
one or two exceptions. Upon seeing
Mr.. Conrey, at his request. she was ask
ed if she had been approached in regard
to paying to retain her position and she
informed him that she had but she gave
no particulars.
Miss Machold dislikes exceedingly
the publicity which must attend the
publication of these facts, but feels that
the public should know of her expert

A BLUFF THAT FAILED


r. r. Emery, being first duly sworn
says: 1 am and at all the times herein
mentioned was a teacher in the public
schools of the city of Los Angeles, and
principal of the Eighth street school. In
the early part of June, 1897, my school
was visited by j. +. Adams and J. c.
Mclnerney, members of the board of
education of the city of Los Angeles, and
who were members of the committee on
visiting and janitors of said school
board the said Adams and McInerney
being accompanied by c. H. AXtell, su-
perintendent of buildings and janitors
A few days after said committee had
visited my school, 1 met with the said
C. II. Axtell on the street and asked him
what the visiting committee had to say
about my school, and whether any
fault was found with my work He re-
piled that he had heard nothing from
them, but that he would inquire, and he
then inquired if l would like to know
what he would do if he were situated as
l was and desired to retain the place as
principal. I asked him what he would
do. He said: Il would make myself
solid with some member of the board -
1 said that that ought not to be neces-
sary. A few days later and during the
last week of school, the said Axtell
called at my school and said that he
had found out that my place as princi-
pal was in doubt. I told him that seemed
queer, as I had had assurances from
members of the teachers committee
that my place was safe, and that it
seemed foolish for me to mix up with it.
He said: "Well if you are sure, but you
can't be too sure" Afterwards, on or
about the Goth day of June, 1897, met
j. f. Adams in the main office of the
secretary of the board of education, and
he called me into room alone where he
inquired of me how / felt about my place
7 replied that had had assurances from
Mr.. Bartlett and Mr.. Webb that my
place was secure. He said: "Is that
so? You had better be pretty sure, be-
cause there is blacklist and your name
is on it and about twenty others, and he
mentioned as being on that blacklist
the names of F. w. Stein, jr. Mark KEEP
pei, T. j. Phillips and several others. /
then asked Mr.. Adams what seemed to
be the trouble with my place. to which
question Mr. Adams, after some hesita-
ton, replied: "You see Mr.. Axtell-he
can tell you all about it,
And further deponent saith not.

of education of the City of Los Angeles.
The annual election of teachers and
principals of schools for the public
schools Of said city occurred on the 2Stl
day of June. 1897 Prior to said! election,
but in the latter part OF June. 1897, the
said c. II. Axtell stated to me that
was in danger of losing my position in
the said city schools. l then asked said
AXtell ho had for many years been con-
nected with the school department, and
as / believed, was we'll advised concern
ing the same, what he, the said Axtell
would advise me to do to prevent such
loss of my position. and in response
thereto, the said Axteli advis9a me- to go
and see the said j. F. Adams about it.
I did not go to see the said j. F. Adams
and a few days later the said AXtell
came to me. at said Sentous-street school
and stated to me that he had held an
interview witllIthe said j. F. Adams con-
cerninS the matter of my tenure of my
position for the ensuing school year
and stated to me that the result of said
interview was that he now advised me
to fix up the matter 50 as to secure nv
position, and that to do so I would be
required 10 pay the sum of one months S
salary of my position, which amount of
one months salary Of my position was
the sum of $40. In response to said
statement, I informed the said Axtell
that ] would not make any payment
whatever. and thereupon turned away
from said Axtell and closed the inter
view.
Afiiant further says: At the time of
my first interview above mentioned with
the said AXtell, said Axtell stated to me
that +. e. Cooper, then janitor at the
said Sentous-street school, was almost
