The majority of people labor under
the impression that an operation Is
necessary in severe cases or piles, or
hemorrhoids and are very skeptical re-
garding the remedial virtues of any
medicinal compound. Testimony like
the above should certainly have ten
dency TO dispel this impression, al
though II is odd that such fallacy
should prevail and still more odd that
so many people should think an oper-
alton effects a permanent cure, where
as the contrary is more often the case.

SALESMAN SUES FOR
WHAT HE FOUGHT TO GET

Many suits are filed annually in the
superior court for what the plaintiff
didn't get" but suits for that which
they fought to get" are few.
In a suit filed in the superior court
yesterday F. D. Mcdonald, a travelling
salesman, asks the court to award him
damages in the sum of $S366.60 against
A. H. Hollister of the Hollister Drug
company for salary and commissions
which he says he fought" to have.
The suit is based upon a contract
alleged to have been entered into be-
tween the parties to this suit January
16 last, wherein the plaintiff was en-
gagged as the drug companys exclusive
agent in California, Arizona and Utah
for the sale of a medicine known as
Rocky Mountain tea.
The contract was to remain in force
for term of years, but Mcdonald
says the company failed to comply with
it's part of the contract, which pre-
vented him from receiving his salary
and commissions.
The plaintiff says in his complaint
that his salary amounted to S20S.SS a
month, while the commissions amount
ed in the aggregate to about $2i0 for
the same length of time.

URGED To VOTE
FOR BOND ISSUE
SCHOOL BOARD IN NEED OF
FUNDS
Pamphlets Setting Forth the Needs
of the Department Are Scattered
Broadcast Throughout
Los Angeles

The board of education is urging
citizens of the Los Angeles school dis
trict to appear at the polls on Tuesday,
March q, and vote on the proposed
issuance of bonds for school purposes.
The report of the committee appoint
ed to inquire into the needs of the
schools as regards increased accommo-
dations for pupils, has been issued in
pamphlet form and these are being
spread broadcast over the city in the
hope that they will reach all the vot-
ers.
The report reveals the crowded con-
ditions in all of the schools and points
tional rooms in many cases but also for
new buildings. The equipment in high
school, grammar and primary grades
is inadequate to supply the needs of
the city.
There is at present in the building
fund of the school department about
S92, 900, money received from the sale
OF the Sixth street school site and one
or two other small pieces of property
and from the rental of the Spring
street property.
1t is recommended by the committee
that this sum of money be kept for
the purpose of providing new schools
in places where the growth of the city
makes them seem necessary in the
future.
rrba biob school and pOlvtechnic high
school are also mentioned in the report
az worthy Of the consideration of the
voter and the needs of the former in
the way of additional grounds and
rooms and the latter in equipment for
the building now in the course of con-
length.
The total amount of the proposed
bond issue for all school purposes is
$74O, 900.

WRANGLE OVER
LAUNDRY PERMITS
CHINESE AND OTHERS GET
LITTLE SATISFACTION
Residents Protest Against Establish
ment of Laundries In Certain
istrcts-Lumber Conn
pany Applies

For two hours the board of police
ject of laundres, Chinese and other
wise, at the meeting yesterday morn
ing. The committee room was crowded
with protestants, petitioners and inno-
cent bystanders, and lengthy argu-
ments We're made. The commissioners
began denying applications, and for a
time those whose names were to be
called near the end of the list began
to fear that the board had fallen into
the habit of denying everything.
The case Of Yuen Woo again came
before the board. Undaunted by his
failure to secure permit a few weeks
ago, this Celestial sent his attorney to
appeal to the board for permission to
conduct a laundry, a la Chinese. in
a building located at 212S South Main
street.
The attorney made plea of some
length, and undertook to prove that
the people owning property in the block
had no right to prevent Yuen Woo or
anybody else from establishing law
full business in that block. He at
tempted to show the board the error
of it's ways by the constitution of the
United States, which he declared gave
any Celestial the right to conduct a
laundry.
The protestants presented their case
briefly, and the board decided that the
citizens of this country and city had
a right to object to a Chinese laundry
being forced upon them, and the ap-
plication Of Yuen Woo was turned
down.
So heavy was the protest of the prop
erty owners in West Thirty eighth
street against the establishment of a
steam laundry at 1887 West Thirty
eighth street that the board decided
that there was no reason why steam
laundry should be established In a
were many reasons why it should not
be, so the application of John Mathew
son to establish a steam laundry there
was turned down.
On the recommendation of Fire Chief
Lips, backed by long list of protest.
ants, T. Masuda was refused permis-
sion to open a hand laundry at 523
Gladys avenue.
Owing to a protest and for other rea-
sons, William E. Cole withdrew his pc
tition for a permit to conduct steam
laundry at 500 Stephenson avenue.
AS each request was refused in turn,
small crowd of citizens who had come
to protest would get up and file from
the committee room. When the last
contingent marched out there were but
two or three persons left, and one man
who had come an hour before the meet
ing was called, in order to be there in
time to protest against the installation
of gasolene engine on Bloom street,
decided that 1t was an over, and went
out with the crowd. Discovering his
error, he appeared again in the room
after time to find that the dreaded
permit had been granted, as the pro-
testants had not been represented.
The Southern California Hardwood
Lumber Manufacturing company at
Ninth and Kohler streets made appli-
ation to the board for permission to
install another boiler in their building.
but the scheme has aroused consIdera-

owners. The case was taken under ad-

fnal presentment:
We have examined into the matters OF
a criminal nature which have come before
us. and have taken such action there
IN q the testimony warranted.
We have examined the books and on
ces Of al the county officers and find them
neatly kept and in good order. except
the county Jail. which sc deem badly in

opinion that the establishment of same

We found the farm conducted in a cred

work done than We anticipated. Il is re-
commended that the unfinished part Of

school funds are in bai shape At the
first meeting of the present board n re-
port was made setting forth that the peo-
pie OF Breyard county had been n,isled,
and that instead of the school fund being
IN good shape, that the board was sl6,-
OLE 81 in debt. There Was an indebted
ness st the time of this report OF the
above amount as shown by outstanding
warrants, but it must be horne in mind
that fund had been provided in the way
Of taxes to pay same which we're not due,
but were an asset against such indebted
ness, and the failure of such explanation
by the present board created q false i'm
preston in the minds OF many Of the cit
liens Of Brevard county, which could
very easily have been avoided, therefore
we recommend in future reports that the
board set forth all such facts for the in
formation OF the public.

The constitutional amendmen

The constitutional amendment,
changing the method of voting
from the secret ballot to the old
time open ballot, which is to- be
voted on in November, does not
require two-thirds of all the votes
in the State as has been publish
ed in a number of papers. That
was what was the matter with
the old Constitution and at last
it was found necessary to violate
that instrument in order to amend
it. The so-called "open-clause"
in the new constitution only re-
Quires majority of the votes
which are cast on that proposition,
to be cast for the amendment to
cause that amendment to carry.
In trying to amend the old con-
stitution it was found that a large
portion Of the voters did not care
enough about the matter to vote
at all, and hence it was found i'm
possible to get the assent Of a
majority of all the voters.
