SAMPLE BALLOTS
ARE ALL MAILED
CITY CLERK COMPLETES BIG
TASK
FORESTALLS FUTURE CONTEST
Step Taken Upon Advice of City At
torney to Prevent Litigation by
Those UnfrlendIy to the
Water Project
FORESTALLs FUTURE CONTEST

For the past week City Clerk Le-
lande has had large force of men at
work mailing the sample ballots for the
owens river water bond election which
is to take place September 7. Yester-
day the last ballot was mailed.
It was not originally intended to mail
these sample ballots, but after City At
torney Mathews had a consultation by
telegraph with Judge Dillon, the legal
autocrat of the New York bond mar
ket, it was decided to mail the ballots
and thus forestall any attempt that
those opposed to the scheme might
make to tie up the bonds after their
issuance.
This decision was reached but a day
before the legal time for beginning the
mailing of ballots. Printers were I'M
mediately put to work on the job and
on the day specified by law the city
clerks force began mailing them. The
work has been completed inside the
limit allowed by law.
Attorneys declare this precaution
was necessary to protect the city
against salts which might be insti-
tuted to prevent the issuance of the
bonds after the people voted for them
There are some people who are fight
ing the movtment to secure the water
from the Owens river valley" said a
well known official yesterday. "And
from their actions up to the present
time 1 take 1t they mean to fight the
bonds to a finish.
Their reasons are sometimes hard
to understand, as the chief one ad-
vanced is that if the Owens river is
bought some Of the individual land
owners in the San Fernando valley will
be benefited. The whole valley will
be benefited. Los Angeles must have
water and no matter where you go
after it the San Fernando valley will
be benefited. If they fight this propo-
sition for such a reason, they must,
to be consistent, fight all propositions
to increase the city's water supply"

THE AUTHORITY OF CHRIST
Methodist Pastor Brings Question Into
Daily Associations in Life

The Authority of Christ" was the
topic chosen by Rev. f. P. Ryland, pas
tor of the Trinity Methodist church,
South, yesterday morning. He took as
his text Mark xi:27-2S: "By what au-
thority doest thou these things?"
Rev. Mr.. Ryland brought the author
ity of Christ into the life of today. He
said in part:
Jesus had only little while before
received homage from the multitude at
his triumphal entry. On the day fol-
lowing he had cleansed the temple and
driven out the money changers and
them that sold the doves. On the next
day, when he came again to Jerusalem,
the chief priests and scrbes and the
elders came to him and said, BY what
authority doest thou these things?"
Jesus answers their questions with
a question-not to show his superior
shrewdness at questioning, but to re-
veal their inability to judge as to his
authority. To them all authority came
from their system of religion and was
conferred. The authority of Christ
came from no man or system but from
the truth of his own character and
teaching.
His words as to necessity of per-
sonal faith in himself rests in Calvary
and the resurrection. Impeach success
fully the character of Jesus or deny
successfully the facts of Calvary and
the resurrection and you may call in
question his authority as our Lord and
Master.
1.-THE authority Of Jesus Is in himself.
Men must confess it and submit to it
or else ever will his truth be rebuking
their untruth and condemning them"

to control nature and to make this
evident that they have made them
selves too comfortable and have little
thought of any other than a material
paradise. They are seeking out many
inventions, but only through the labor
and culture of the spirit can harmony
come again into the discordant soul of
man."
DR.. Walker made reference to the
conflict between Russia and Japan and
the utter lapse into barbarism which
the extension of such strife would pro-
duce.
But the Almighty has been working
on the problem" continued the speaker.
"and there are signs that man is COM
ing to his own again. The genius of
American institutions is that it pro-
vided for the appreciation of the dig
nifty of men simply as men without
fictitious advantages of rank and
state-prizes which are the result OF
accident rather than of merit has been
one of the great elements in this COM
ing restoration-this making of man
hood.
"The element of genius the going
out of the heart of the stronger toward
the weaker, the growing passion for
humanity, is noted as another force in
the upward movement. Above all is
hn t1of Af
clings to Christ and to the ideal which
he represents. Men long to be like him.
He is indeed the unacceptable Christ.
1t is his genius that will in time build
up model manhood"
Dr. Walker closed with a tribute to
President Roosevelt and to the Japa-
nese government for it's self-sacrifice.

GREATNESS THROUGH SERVICE
Sovereignty and Mastery Attained
Only Through Deeds of Ministry

Rev. William Horace Day preached
from the text "Whosoever would be-
come great among you shall be your
servant. Subject, Greatness Through
Service" ,...
"In this text Jesus announced new
principle. Greatness is gained through
service. It was opposed to the current
ideas of his time. That the ambition
to be great could be attained not
through mastery, but through minis
try, not through sovereignty but
through service startled even the disci-
pies.
"The speaker then compared Kufu,
or Cheops, the builder of the great
pyramid, with Paul as illustrating the
two ideas of greatness showing the
enduring nature of the greatness the
Tarsan Jew attained through service
and the fieeting nature of the greatness
Kufu supposed he had gained with his
absolute authority over a great nation.
THE most striking thing about the
effect of Jesus principle of greatness
is its power to make ordinary common
men great. Peter was the ordinary
man, hard fisted, hard speaking, hard
working fisherman of Galiee and yet 1t
is no accident of history that his name
crowns the proudest hierarchy in the
Christian church"
AS a modern example of this prin-
ciple of true greatness the speaker
spoke of the life and character of the
late Frederick Hastings Rindge.
To-day this city mourns because a
mighty man has fallen in Israel Men
and women who knew this man but
slightly or not at all feel a sense of
personal loss. They mourn more than
his culture, his wealth, his ability or
even his inumerable benevolences, they
mourn the greatness attained as Jesus
commanded"

By Associated Press.


SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 3.-Manager
Coffroth of the Colma club has not yet
received a response from James Jeffries
regarding the proposition of the cham
pion acting as referee in the Britt

few days ago was notified by tele-
graph that the sum of $1,000 would be
paid him for his services in the ring
but no intimation has as yet come from
Catalina island, where Jeffries Is stay

otherwise.
Crowds of visitors attended the Britt

the favored ones were permitted to see
the pugilists at work. Britt is doing
the lightest kind of exercise. He is Il

himself at that point until a day or
two before the match. He makes
weight easily and considers himself in
good condition. Satisfactory reports

OPTIMISM DIsPELs GLOOM
Methodist Minister Draws a Lesson
From Examples Set by Savior

DR.. w. H. Rider, pastor of the West
lake Methodist Episcopal church,
preached an interesting sermon yester-
day morning on "The Optimism of
Jesus" DIR. Rider selected for his
text Heb. 1872, who for the joy that
was set before him endured the cross,
despising the shame. and is set down
at the right hand of the throne OF
God" He said in part:
IF any man that ever walked this
earth had reason, at least from our
standpoint, to take a gloomy view of
life. it was Jesus Christ. His was a
lonely life. He had no home. Foxes
where to lay his head. He associated
with men who did not know him. The
world knew him not. He was away
from home, but never homesick. He
seemed to fail utterly, outwardly, so
the Greeks and others said he was a
failure. He met with continued oppo-
sition from church and state. All
parties and institutions were down on
him. Away with him.
But what view did he take of life j.?
He taught that the true life was
happy. Blessed are the meek, blessed
are the righteous, blessed are men who
stand for and are prosecuted for the
sake of the right. Blessed are mar
tyrs for good causes.
He taught that the normal life was
a sound mind in a sound body. He
healed body and soul. This is the
proof, and his miracles were adumbra-
tions Of normal humanity. God did
not make the world for poor house or
an asylum. You may make it so but
that is not your heavenly fathers
fault. Keep Gods laws, that is, be
good and be happy. The poor he recog-
nised but never hopelessly.
"The poor have the gospel preached
to them. Do that gospel work, you
who are more favored. and the poor of
one generation will be the rich of the
next. Gods world to Jesus was a good

CHURCH'S RAPID GROWTH
lmmanuel Presbyterian Lacks Three
Members of Being Second

The Emmanuel Presbyterian church
Of Los Angeles has now a membership
of 2O53 being now the third largest in
the 5000 churches of the denomination
and lacks only three members of being
the second in numerical strength.
These facts were announced by Rev.
Hugh K. Walker, D. D., the pastor, at
the services yesterday, which marked
the seventeenth anniversary of the or
ganization of the church.
DIR. Walkers sermon was suggested
by the peace negotiations of the past
week. The text was Ecclesiastes 1928,
"Lo! this only have 1 found that God
hath made man upright; but they
sought out many inventions" He took
as his topic THE Genius That Makes
Manhood" He pictured first the fall
of man as represented by the transact
ton in the garden of Eden and showed
how this was the initial act in all hui
man history, whether of the Individual
or of the race. He said in part:

have been great advances in knowledge;
and superstition, witchcraft and other
evils due to ignorance have been OBJ

arrogance and conceit that make men

Ease With Which Hundreds Earn a
Livelihood illustrated In Profit
able Enterprises

The case with which a livelihood
may be earned in Los Angeles is
illustrated by the small businesses, all
of which furnish fair existence for the
proprietors.
The walnut date man, the carnation
man, the lady who writes your name
on calling cards for twenty cents a
dozen, the man who prints a hundred
cards with your name for forty cents,
the girl who squirts sweet smelling
odors through a miniature atomizer
and sells an ounce of Honey Boy, the
latest perfumery, for a quarter, the
woman who forms your name with
golden wire, beautifully mounted on a
pearl base for two bits" the old man
selling books of poetry for a penny
another old man selling shoestrings
and pencils. They all earn a livelihood
from small enterprises
None of these people depend upon nor
expect charity. They are principally
Americans, too. The perfumery girl
hopes for the time when she can be
behind the counter of a millinery store.
The card writer has ambitions along
the literary line and some time is going
to write a book. While the card
printer has his eyes on a little print
shop.
None of them work very hard for the
reason that they don't need to, but
they all live and live fairly we'll.
