FROSTY MEETINGS
The following letters from correspondents
speak for themselves:
LOS ANGELES, Oct 81, l898
"To the Editor of the Los Angeles Herald:
The hopelessness of the Gage cause in this
county is proved by many facts, but the
most significant are the frosty Republican
meetings. AT Monrovia Friday night the
audience was made up of about twenty Re-
publicans and forty Mcguire supporters.
During the progress of the meeting about
half OF the audience melted away and at the
conclusion of the meeting the chairman Of
fered three cheers for Gage and the county
ticket and so enthusiastic were those pres
ent that they permitted the chairman to
yell alone. Not discouraged by this failure
he proposed another trial and this time two
Republicans Joined him in his hopeless
cause. Monrovia has always been considered
three persons can be found there to cheer
for Gage and Coils, something must be
ont of whack with the Republican ticket and
Republican prospects.
"The same condition is found in every
town in the county. The Republican man
agement has been compelled to cancel all
their meetings in the Antelope valley be
cause they. could get no one to attend their
meetings, while the attendance upon the
union meetings has been the largest and
most enthusiastic ever held in that sec
ticn; ,,.
have been fizzles-small attendance, lack oi
enthusiasm and frosts have been the con
trolling features. AT Long Beach, Redondo
Norwalk, Downey, Pomona, San Fernando
Ell Monte, Azusa and every other town and
city in the county the same discouraging
ticket. AN OUTSIDER"
Two Alarms of Fire
Alarms of fire were turned in last night
from box "a corner of Buena Vista and
College streets, and box 65, corner of Tur-
ner and Vignes streets The first was a
false alarm, and the last was turned in fol-
a small fire under the rear stairway OF the
Stimson-L Lafayette Industrial school on
jackson and Lafayette streets. Chemical
No soon extinguished the blaze.
ANOTHER LIKE IT
To the Editor Of the Los Angeles Herald
The Republicans made p great effort to Sc
cure successful meeting at Tropico Satur
day night, but their speakers failed to ma
terialize, as did also a considerable portion
of their expected audience. There were ex
actly 3S people present, eight of whom be
longed to the union party, and the latter
were present for the purpose of distribut
ing Barlows pamphlet. Candidate Melick
for the assembly, and the Republican can
Jidata for county taudopt of cohoo1s
were present and spoke briefly. Then w
H. Holland, the Tropco school teacher
who is a Prohibtionist, closed their meet
ing by telling his audience to study the char
acters of the candidates on both tickets and
to vote for the best men. In this same pre-
Tuesday evening by Jud X. Rush and Judge
Murphey, and 100 persons were present.

UNION RALLY AT RIVERA
To the Editor of the Los Angeles Herald
Ex-Mayor H. T. Hazard and S. A. Waldron
addressed the citizens of Rivera on Satur
day evening on the issues of the campaign
Mayor Hazard spoke of the Southern Pacific
railroad in state politics, conclusively prov.
ing that the hand OF Uncle Coils is behind
the Republican county and state tickets He
admonished his audience of the Importance
of returning Charles A. Barlow to congress
as San Pedro harbor is not yet built, and
true and tried friend is needed "at court. .
Southern California" he said, "is en-
titled to one of the United States senators
from this state. The candidates for the
state legislature must not be forgotten, a,
the return of Senator White or some other
man from this end of the state is all-import
ant"
Mr.. Waldron spoke on the principles Of
money. The cry for an "honest dollar" SC
often heard from the gold-standard advo
Gates was sham and fraud. What they
really mean by an "honest dollar is a dol
lar that is constantly increasing in value at
the rate OF at least IN per cent per annum
Mr.. Waldron contended that the only RENE
dy for falling prices was a hypodermic injec
tion of free silver into the channels of com
merce. 1t would revive the dropping spirits
of industry and give new hope to the mort
gage-burdened people of the whole country
Prof. Sallee spoke against the sixth con
stitutional amendment as being detrimental
to the best interests of the public schools
Rivera will go 4 to for the union ticket.

WHAT HUTCHINSON SAYS
E. L. Hutchison arrived in the city yes.
terday morning from San Francisco, and
returned to that city at 1920 last night. He
attended strictly to business while here,
Gil. In hurried interview last night Mr.
Hutchison said: "I tell you, Mcguire will
win. He will carry San Francisco by ,00O
easy, and the enthusiasts say by $4,000 He
will carry the north, and am taking him
good news from the south. From what !
have been told since my arrival here, Gage
will be lucky if he goes over Tehachapi with
1900 majority. Huntington and Crocker
have, done more by their admissions than
the s. p. sack can do to repair the break
The people know just where the railroad
stands now 1t is no use for Barnes or Car
penter to deny that the S. P. sack is backing
Gage with all its, pull, power and money"
1--WE are working day and night" con-
cluded Hutchinson, as he ran for the train
"and we are going to keep it up. See you
