SAN JOSE POLITICS
Inside History Comes Out in Libel
Suit

SAN JOSE. Cal, Sept 2l.-The libel suit
of Jarman against Rea is progressing
more rapidly SO far than had been gener-
ally anticipated. Jarman was on the
stand this morning for redirect examina-
ton, and related some rather startling
testimony. He, with four other members
of the common council, went to the office
of one member for q consultation over the
appointment OF fremen and policemen.
Those present we're George Dittus, Julius
Kreg, F.. 2 Main, Richard Martin and
himself (Jarman).
Some one knocked at the door, which
proved to be Rea. He came In laughing,
with the remark:
II thought you fellows could get along
without me-
Then turning to Martin Rea said:
what in hell are you doing here; you
can't vote with these fellows If you do,
you will lose you job Tuesday, and don't
forget that littl: financial obligation yoi,
are under to me-
With this, Rea left and took Martin
with him, but invited all to corIe to his
house that afternoon when he thought they
could settle the matter satisfactorily.
Accepting the Invitation the then Mayor
AuSlII, Hieul'tTS Ot the COUNCIL JOnn u.
Mackenzie and one or two others, were
there. A lis; of names was submitted by
Rea and Mackenzie for policemen and fire.
man.
Jarman refused to accept the list, making
objection to two or three Individually. One
policeman and one fireman We're especially
objected to- because charges of misconduct
were preferred against the fireman and
the policeman had been absent from duty
100 days during the year, as stated by the
Mayor.
Witness said that Rea and Mackenzie
declared that the fireman would have to
go on as he was worth fifty votes to
us," and the policeman would also have to
go OH as he was the brother of council
man.
Witness refusa! to take the slate caused
the enmity OF Rea and his efforts to defea
witness by SANDER.
Much other inside history of alleged
political management is being brought out
