Lee G. Gates will remain in the race
for mayor as the nominee of the nom
partisan committee.
DR.. Walter Lindley will continue his
endeavor to secure the straight Repub-
lican nomination.
Suggestions in Republican organs that
either Gates should, even regardless of
the fact that he has accepted in
formal letter the non-partiSan nomina-
tion, decline to run, have been met with
a deaf ear by the non-partisan nominee
and the various members of the COM
mittee.
Likewise the suggestions from the
same source that Dr. .Lindley r'Iould
cease his candidacy for the straight Re-
publican nomination and work for the
Endorsement of Mr. Gates have met
with the same results.
In most emphatic manner both Mr..
Gates and DR.. Lindley yesterday de-
clared that they had not the slightest
intention of adopting the suggestions
stated and that they would remain in
the race until the votes were counted
on the night of November 4.
Each made formal statement to The
Herald, giving vital reasons why he
could not seriously consider a sugges-
tion from any source that he now step
aside.

the nomination by the non-partisan
committee came without solicitation:
that he has formally accepted the nom
inationi that his candidacy is backed
by over 5000 pledged endorsements, with
others to hear from, and that he con-
siders his election assured.
DR.. Lindley says that he was can
didate two years ago, but that he
dropped out. much to the regret of
many OF his friends; that now he is
confident not only of receiving the Re-
publican nomination but OF being
elected, and that for him to again step
aside would be doing his friends, who
have worked hard In the interest OF his
candidacy. such an injustice that he
could not for an Instant consider the

e. Barclay. From present Indications
Capt. Shoulders is in the lead but the
contest may not be decided on the first
ballot.
George Beebe and Leslie Hewitt will
fight for the nomination of city attor-
ney, with the chances in favor Of Mr..
Beebe, owing to the fact that Mr..
Hewitt accepted the non-partisan NOM
ination.
Harry Lelande still claims that he
will receive the denomination for city
clerk despite the fact that he accepted
the non-partisan nomination, but An
drew Francisco is slated for the nom
ination.
There will be a contest for tax and
license collector between e. E. john
son, the incumbent and w. B. Nor
gan, fish and game warden, with each
expressing confidence.
Charles o. Winters has been slated
for the nomination for auditor, but
Norman Bryant remains in the race.
Evan Lewis seems to be the only can
didate for assessor, and the indications
. are that he will have no opposition
Some CounciImanic Fights
There are five candidates for the
council who practically won at the
primaries. They are:
e. A. Clampitt; Third, Councilman Sid
ney w. Hitler; Eighth, Councilman
Bernard Healy; Ninth, Councilman e.
L.. Blanchard.
In the Fourth ward w. H. Gilbert
was thought to have won in the primar-
| les, but indications now are that A. H.
Armstrong will receive the nomination.
| Seth Hart was supposed to have been
reasonably certain of the nomination
| from the Fifth ward, but at present 1t
is believed that A. ]. Wallace, the nom
partisan nominee, will win in the con-
vention
In the Sixth ward there will be am
/ interesting fight tween F. Bunger, Hs
II. Younkin, Andrew Henderson ana u.

An interesting situation has developed
in the Seventh ward. Harry Lyons de-
feated Jesse R. Shafer in the primaries.
and it was supposed that Lyons would
have no trouble in securing the NOM
ination. but an element which seriously
opposed Lyons has brought out as its
candidate A. l.. Madear, well known
merchant, who, it is predicted, will win
out in the convention.

DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE FOR
LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR
HAS SPLENDID RECORD

Thomas O. Toland. the Democratic
nominee for lieutenant governor was
born in Alabama. He arrived in
California In 1876. He graduated at
the University of California at Berk-
eley in 1878 Subsequently he studied
law in the Hastings law school. He
belongs to tie family of which Dr. H.
H. Toland, the pioneer physician and
surgeon, who founded the Toland
medical college in San Francisco, was
distinguished representative.
Since 1882 Mr.. Toland has lived in
Ventura county. He was principal of
the HuenPWeme and Santa Paula
schools for four years, and has prac-
ticed law ever since, serving one term
as district attorney of Ventura county.
In 1896 he was elected member of the
assembly of California, overcoming a
considera BILE -tepublican majority. He
was an industrious and aggressive
member, at all times combating the
powerful influence Of the Southern Pa
cific railroad and it's allies, which We're
greatly i'm evidence at that session. AS
a member of the assembly he was
recognized as one of the leaders of that
body, In 1898 the service which he had
rendered in the assembly won for him
his nomination for member of the
beard of equalization for the Fourth
district, comprising the twenty-three
southern counties of the state. The
district was 10000 Republican, but he
was elected by majority of $500. His
success in this contest was probably
equally attributable to his well known
devotion to the public interests, when
ever in public office, and particularly
to his record made in the assembly.
On the state board of equalization
he took the position that the great
railroad properties of the state for
years had been assessed too low as
compared with other tax payers. This
position caused the very strongest op-
position from the railroad corporations
which had been and We're unjustly
benefited by these low assessments,
and a hot contest followed which
lasted for the whole four years of his
term
Al the beginning of Tolands term OF
Office the total assessment Of the rail-
Los Angeles herald., 1906-10-30

roads in the state assessed by the
board of equalization was less than
$45, 600, 900. These assessments were in
creased by his efforts more than $20-
100000, increasing their annual taxes
by $3.50 900, so that during the four
years since he went off the state board
of equalization the railroads of Cali
county treasures, as the result of his
efforts. $1.250OOO of taxes more than
they otherwise would have paid
OF his whole public record he is justly
proud, but he has called attention to
1t in this campaign not any more to
emphasize the claim which 1t gives him
to public confidence than to illustrate
by a practical example, based upon
facts. of which there can be no ques-
tion, why it is that the Southern Pa
ciic Railroad company las maintained
and is still maintaining its great politi-
cal machine for controlling the politics
of California; why 1t is that it has
for years dominated in particular the
Republican party and never more
completely or brazenly than at the re-
cent convention of that party held at
Santa Cruz.
If Mr.. Toland is elected Lieutenant
governor this fall he WILL as the pres
iding officer of the senate, having the
power as such to appoint all the COM
mittees of that body, be in position to
exercise great influence for good In
securing a great primary law and In
assisting in the enactment of other
great reform measures.
No man who has ever held public
station in the state has made a better
record or has more to commend him
to the confidence of the people than
Thomas o. Toland, the nominee for
lieutenant governor.

WOMAN FASTs FOR
FORTY-FOuR DAYS
MISS FANNIE SCHAFFER TAKES
TREATMENT
Toxin Poisoning Causes Much Suffer.
ing and Heroic Methods Are
Successfully Pressed
Into Service

The successful fast of forty-four DAYS
by Miss Fannie Shaffer is considered
by physicians as a wonderful achieve
ment.
Miss Shaffer, who came to Los An
geleS from Iowa about one year ago
was suffering from toxin poisoning and
was advised to take this heroic treat
ment by her physician, DR., C.. S. Edmin-
ston, oSteopathist.
The first few days of the fast tho
patient suffered much from hunger and
craved meats and as usual in such
cases was nervous and depressed. But
after this period she progressed well,
and during the entire time she took no
nourishment, with the exception of
orange juice and water.
The first two weeks she lost consider
able flesh, but after that only a gradual
decrease was perceptable.
Miss Shaffer, with her fast, also took
the rest cure, and was under the care
of a trained nurse, Mrs. Otto, at the
home of the latter on Topez street
During the fast the patient remained
in'bed and gave herself up to entire rest
and quiet.
This fast has been achieved by Miss
Shaffer not for notoriety. but simply
from the advice of her physician, and Il
ls diilrileu lHdl II 10 treatment lHdJ
only a few can take with success.
At the conclusion of the fast last Fri
Gay noon raw eggs. fruit juice, fresh
lettuce and tomatoes were given in
small quantities to the patient, and
within twenty-four hours she ate a
small head of tender cabbage, which
she said she craved more than anything
else.
Miss Shaffer is in fine condition, and
although not strong is well pleased with
her treatment.

involved the indications are that so it
will remain until the close of the cam
paign.
Not only Mr. Gates, but the various
members of the nom partisan commit
tee, express confidence that the entire
nom partisan ticket will be elected
DR.. Lindley. on the other hand. be-
lieves as strongly that he will receive
the nomination and that he will be
elected.
On the face of the returns of the
primaries, DR.. Lindey should have a
consdera BILE majority in the Republic
can convention next Thursday, but con-
ditions exist which might result in the
upsetting of plans.
DR.. j. w. Jones, who has been ar
avowed candidate and who has recently
, opened headquarters in the Nadeau,
declares that he is confident of winning.
| While 1t cannot be said that Dr. Jones
Is favored by any particular element.
it is certain that he is not opposed by
the organization.
1t is conceded that. DR.. Lindley's s
strength has been acquired in spite of
the organization, and 1T is also known
that the Organization is opposed to in
dorsing Mr.. Gates because of his ac-
ceptance of the non-partisan nominal
tion.
reither will Gates votes go to Lindley.
Whether the organization will support
Lindley, or. II an opportunity offers,
come out for Jones or a dark horse, re-
mains to be seen
Should the organization remain pas
sive, DR.. Lindley will be nominated; but
what the organization will do later,
with man whom 1t did not seek at the
head Of the Republican ticket and an
other man whom they consider to have
gone back on the Republican machine
at the head of the partisan ticket
also remains to be seen.
Contests for other offices
Indications are that aside from the
mayoralty contest the convention next
Thursday will be interesting by reason
of prospective contests over the NOM
nations for several other offices.
In the contest for treasurer there are

CIGAR MAKERS GET RAISE
Big Company Celebrates High-Water
Mark by SubstnntiaI Token.


Cigarmakers throughout the whole
country are jubilant over the raise In
wages which has been given them by
the American Cigar company. This
raise, which varies from 5 per cent to
25 per cent, according to location took
place the third week of this month. 1t
was entirely unsolicited on the part OF
the employees. and on this account was
the more unexpected
During the past year the success of
the company has been very fiattering.
Realizing that this success was due
directly to their employees they decided.
some time ago. to. present them sub
stantial token of their appreciation.
Nothing was said of the matter and no
one had an inlxling of it until the man
ayers of the hundreds of factories were
notified OF the plan. The employees
they opened their envelopes to fnd they
had been earning an extra salary for
the week. This is the second time the
company has given its people general
raise. All classes OF its employees, both
skilled and unskilled. have prohted
thereby. When the company took over
a number of the southern factories the
cigarmakers were getting only $3.50 a
schedule to 49, and this months step
brings It up to $3.50 In all OF the largest
factories
Apropos of cigars. It is an interest
ing fact that the cheroot-smoking dis

at the hands of the flve-cent cigar, for
which larger orders are coming In, in
these sections. II is inferred from this
that the taste of the cheroot smoker Is
improving. Indeed. the demand for
