KOEPFLI ADVISES
USE OF REFERENDUM
OR FRANCHISE CALL

Former President of the Chamber of
Commerce ]. o. Koepfli said: II wit
messed the proceedings of the council
this afternoon and l am simply
astounded That body's legal adviser,
although the members declined to ask
for his opinion as they would ordinarily
have done, volunteered such an adverse
opinion as would have stopped the pro-
ceedngs of any body actually engaged
in deliberatng a question and which
had not firmly made up its mind to do
the deed at hand regardless of the con-
sequences.
''If the Gould system required the
privilege granted by this franchise for
the purpose of gaining an entrance to
Los Angeles, | fail to see how more
effective method of blocking it could
be devised than the granting away
by the city this franchise to one who
is admittedly a dummy holder and who,
according to his own statements, bases
his opinion that the parties whom he
is dealing with are Gould men on
nothing more tangible than a suppos,-
ton.
Sees a Loving War
1.-The granting of this franchise
seems to me to be the elimination of
the loving war between Hartman and
Huntington. 1 think that plans have
been laid very carefully by the allied
Huntington and Hartman interests.
That the two chief owners of the
Pacific Electric should be antagonistlc
to each other has always seemed to
me to be simply incredible and when
this franchise was mentioned the cause
for this sham quarrel was evident.
IF this franchise Is not used by the

M'ALEER SAYS THE
PEOPLE MAY RELY
ON HIM IN EMERGENCY

Mayor Owen McAleer was much in
cenced by the position taken by the
council in his absence. He arrived in
Los Angeles last evening in response
to telegrams sent him by friends in
this city.
The mayor said: 1.-THE first intima-
tion had that anything of this nature
was intended was when l got to Mo1aVe
last evening.
Il did my best to get to Los Angeles
before the franchise was granted by
the council, but owing to delayed
trains did not succeed in doing so.
"Of one thing the citizens of Los
Angeles can be assured, and that Is
that Acting Mayor Summerland Will
not sign the franchise as one of the
papers stated he would attempt to do,
ITO the best of my belief and knoWl-
edge, the Could system would have TO
chance whatever of getting franchise
of that nature through that council.
II firmly believe that the real backer
of Gilmore is not Gould but Is Hunt
ington. With the Hartman Hunting
ton alliance in effect the Gould inter-
ests simply could not get a franchise
of that nature and value.
Sees Huntington's Hand
"The alliance doesn't want the Gould
people to get a line into Los Angeles
and you may believe that the council
is not doing anything to antagonize
Huntingdon Hartman.
Look at the proposed line and the
position of the franchise. 1t extends
From Macy street to the south city
limits.
EVERY one Of the Huntington lines
would act as a feeder to 1t.
"Notice that the franchise is granted
to a railway, not street railway, and
the steal is doubled by that for street
railway franchise would have to be
bid on, while a railway franchise can
be awarded free.
while it would not do for me to
affirm at this time that 1 will veto
the franchise, the people of Los An
geles may be assured that I will do my
duty by them.
Says He Was Approached
"I am not subsidized by any cor
porate interests and If this seems to
me to be against the best interests of
the city 1 will certainly veto it.
"I was approached three months ago
by four men, of whom Gilmore was
one, on this same proposition and l
told them then, in the presence of Mr..
Goudge, that they could not pull off
any such steal while 1 was mayor OF
Los Angeles.
IT do not believe that the franchise is
legal for the reason that there is very
decided doubt as to whether the river
bed belongs to the city of Los Angeles
or to the state of California. In the
latter case the franchise would be most
certainly illegal, and 1 believe it to be
NOT onlv illegal hut dishonest"

REFERENDUM IS
REMEDY IN
PEOPLES HANDS

Should Mayor McAleer sign this or
dinance which none of his friends be-
lieve he will do, or in the case of the
council passing the ordinance over his
veto, of which there is a stronger pos
sibility, the people of Los Angeles still
have one remedy at hand to prevent
the ordinance becoming a law.
This Is the referendum. The Munich
pal league, through it's officers, has
threatened that in either event the
referendum will be invoked and the
people will be given chance to decide
whether they wish to give this fran
chise to e. w. Gilmore, his successors
Los Angeles herald., 1906-03-29

who are integral parts of the Hartman
Southern Pacific political machine III
state politics, were among those pres
ent in the lobby yesterday afternoon
and they were so conspicuous the mem
hers of the council could not help see
ing them Not one of them had word
to say when prominent citizens were
speaking. Werethey there to keep the
council in line in the face of the strong
opposition? is the question that is being
asked
Had Hartman objected to the grant
ing of this franchise, and it Is conceded
he would have objected strenuously II
he believed 1t was for Gould, 1t Is be-
lived there would have been a stronger
difference of opinion among the coun-
cilmen, to say the least.
The right of way granted to MIR. Gill
more will connect directly with the San
Gabriel rapid transit roadbed, owned
by Huntington and which he now is
having regarded.
Although the franchise expressly
stipulates that this line is for steam
railroad it is possible to run an electric
line over it instead of steam.
May Operate Electric Cars
The law allows an electric line to be
operated over a steam franchise, but
does not allow a steam road to pc
operated on an electric franchise. Inc
Pacific Electric line Is operated on a.
steam franchise, as well as the new
Sixth street line for which preparations
are being made.
Assistant City Attorney Goudge's
statement to the council that it was it's
duty to sell the franchise which 1t gave
away was based on the fact that the
land on which the right of way Will
extend Is owned by the city and that
in giving this privilege it was prac-
tically giving away city land for a
period of twenty-one years. Had IL
been on a public highway 1t could not
have been sold, as the law expressly
states that there can be no sale or
steam railroad franchise.
"It is much the same as if some one
had come to the council and asked for
the city hall. The land on which it Is
proposed to build this railroad, If 1t Is
ever built, is city land" said Mr.,
Goudge land the council had no more
right to give it for the asking than 1t
has to give away one of the city's
parks or public buildings. The city
attorney would so have Informed the
council if his opinion had been asked,
But it was not.
Says Action Is Peculiar
"Houghton was misleading the coun-
cil," said Mr.. Goudge yesterday in eX-
planning his motive for shooting his
cannon cracker under the tails of the
council. HE practically said that the
city attorney had stated that this
franchise could not be sold. while the
fact is that the council, collectively. in
dividually, personally nor officially
asked any advice whatsoever from the
city attorney on this franchise.
Its the most peculiar thing I ever
saw in city council and I have been
through six of them" Mr. Goudge con-
tinued But today there was not
single person who stood and declared
the council was justified in passing
this franchise ordinance. Heretofore
whatever has come up on which there
has been a question of any kind there
has always been someone to plead for
what appears to be the wrong side OF
the question. Today there was no one
willing to Justify the councils actions.

The management of the Barstow Mining and

stock at a special price of only so cents per
share-par value $40.
This company is not fake in any sense and
is not a promoters scheme wildcat prop

been foated. We are selling stock on the real
merits of Our own mine, and not the record
of some other mine. We have own ore
and do not have to refer to what others have
done or might do.
The first intention of the companyfis to Put
more men to work next Monday.
The next is to begin building a 20-stamp
custom mill, for which have ore to run
day and night for three years.
Now all we can say is that need more
money for this work, and in return will give
you fair, square deal and real work for every
cent invested. There is not man in the
company who is promoter, or ever has been.
We are miners and have a mine, and not

MAYORS FRIENDS
STATE HE WILL
VETO FRANCHISE

While the council did what it could
to give away this valuable privilege
there still is Mayor McAleer to reckon
with. While Mr.. McAleer will not say
positively what he will do with the or
dinance when it is presented to him
for his signature every friend of the
mayor will say positively that he will
veto it in short order. Should he do
this it will be necessary to have seven
votes of the council to pass it over his
veto, and while there were seven yes
terday, and President Summerland will
be back in his seat when the ordinance
is returned by the mayor giving a pos
sible eight. there is every reason to be-
lieve that in the interim two or three
members of the council will hear some
thing to their advantage and vote to
sustain the mayors veto.
1t was evident that City Clerk H. j.
Lelande had as little confidence in the
council as those who witnessed its
action yesterday. An effort was made
Monday night under what he claims
were false pretenses to have him attest
the ordinance as having passed the
council with a view of presenting it at
once to Acting Mayor Summerland for
his signature. He was not to be caught
by any questionable action the council
might attempt yesterday, and as soon
as the council had finished with the
ordinance Mr. Lelande was right there
to receive it from the minute clerk.
That ordinance is now in the inside
pocket of Mr.. Lelande's coat, tightly
buttoned up, and it will remain there
until he is ready to attest it and send
it to Mayor McAleer.
See Railroad Combination
With all the turmoil and trouble over
the action of the council in giving away
city property that is believed to be
worth million dollars, one of the main
points at issue has not been solved.
This Is the mystery of the principal for
whom Mr.. Gilmore is acting.
Suspicious circumstances developed
yesterday that make it appear that the
breach between Huntington and Harri-
man is not as wide as has been re-
ported and that on the contrary 1t is
Huntington and Hartman in combina-
tion who have pushed Mr.. Gilmore for
ward to secure the franchise with a
view of keeping Gould out of the field.
Summed up, these circumstances are
as follows: 1t is well known that the
Southern Pacific political machine prac-
tically elected every councilman who
now holds a seat. and that Walter
Parker, Harriman's henchman and en-
ploye, holds the whip over the council.
