party; Gin fact, from the present outlook
we prefer to take our boom from the almost

COLE GIVES FIGURES
Nathan Cole, jr., is in San Francisco and
has been telling the natives up there a few
plain truths about Los Angeles and the sec.
tion south Of the Tehachapi. To an Exam.
liner reporter Thursday he said:
II can't figure any combination there that
will give Gage more than 1000 majority, in.
stead of the 5000 claimed. Two years ago
Los Angeles county gave Mckinley 600 ma
lority, and the city at the same time gave
Bryan 500 majority. The city will give Ma.
guire 1000 majority on this basis, and the
county outside of the city will give Gage,
think, from 800 to 1900 majority. Certainly
no more. The county is going to be ex-
tremely close.
There is another thing that is going to
cut large figure there. In Los Angeles
county there are from 1900 to 100 colored
votes. and the great majority Of these will
vote for Mcguire. It is fact that in the
A"se cAht oavb tucIc nave Deen Two large
colored Republican clubs organized-one in
Los Angeles and one in Pasadena. The one
in Pasadena was Republican club and
came over to us in body"
WIGWAM TONIGHT
At the Mcguire wigwam tonight Hon.
Frank II. Gould and T. 0. Toland will adj |
dress the people upon the issues of the cam
paign. Coming as he does directly from the
heart Of the present conflict, Mr.. Gould will
have many interesting facts
and figures regarding the situation in the
north. He is an eloquent and logical speaker
and will certainly entertain his audience.
L. 0. Toland will take up the work of
George L. Arnold and also present some
very interesting facts and figures. This will
be Mr.. Toland's first lengthy address in this
city during the campaign, and it is need
less to say he has fully prepared himself for
It as to Arnold's record.
