TEMPERANCE WORKERS FAIL

LEADER 0USTED, SAY FRIENDS
Associates Of Wiley J. Phillips Assert
That Outsiders Took Control
Of the Meeting Last
Sunday
LEADER oUsTED, SAY FRIENDS

The germ Of discord has taken root
I'm the ranks of the army of temper
ance workers who are preparing TO
wage war against the liquor traffic In
Los Angeles, and unless peace Is re-
stored in the camp of the reformers
the enemy may go unmolested.
Since the meeting last Sunday the
trouble has been growing gradually
until 1t has ended in open declaration
of facts showing that all is not well
with the different factions concerned
In fighting the liquor men.
The meetings were originally started
by Wiley j. Phillips, editor of the
california Voice." He asked two or
three others to speak at the meetings
and 1t is affirmed that these two or
three others have introduced still
others and that they have taken the
whole affair out of the hands Of Mr..
Phillips.
At the meeting last Sunday Mr..
Phillips presided and said that Mr..
Hall would speak.
Mr.. Hall made some opening remarks
and then introduced some one who
would fill his place, he said. This
was Rev. c. C. Pierce of the Memorial
Baptist church, and his address was
satisfactory to the leaders, as he con-
tended that no one special organiza-
ton, no w. c.. T. u, no prohibition
party, no anti-saloon league, but the
people of Los Angeles are going to put
the liquor men out of business.
When Mr.. Pierce had finished speak
ing Mr.. Bowers was asked to say
few words, but he announced that he
was prevented from doing so by a cold
and said that in his place he would
appoint Fred F. Wheeler.
Mr. Wheeler is chairman of the
| county central committee of the Pro-
hibition party and he announced at
once that he had drawn up a set of
resolutions which he desired to pre-
| sent for the consideration of the meet
| ing.
The resolutions were read and the
speaker moved their adoption. An
other member of his party seconded
the motion and third called for the
question.
Questions Point
A man in the audience arose to a
point of order and asked to be in
formed as to the legal right of GER
tain measure. He was Immediately
put down by Mr.. Wheeler, who said he
had considered the question Of law and
that everything was all right. He
again called for the question and the
resolution was carried.
Provision was made for the appoint
ment of committee to take charge
and nominate a permanent executive
committee which would elect officers
and conduct all the necessary busi-
ness.
Just to facilitate affairs for the
chairman" said Mr.. Wheeler, "I will
suggest a committee on nomination."
The committee was elected as he sug-
gested and held the first meeting
Tuesday morning in the office OF the
Voice.
Some of those who were present at
the Sunday meeting contend that
everything was taken directly out OF
Mr.. Phillips hands and that the mem-
bers of the Prohibition party came

The above contains some things
that It would be well for Fairnont
property owners to think about.
There is no doubt that high rents
along with the high cost OF living
have been great drawback to this

Barton says of Wheeling applies
with equal force to Falrmont. We
