HIDDEN FAVORS
BROAD POLICY
SECOND WARDER SOUNDS SLo.
GAN FOR HIGHER WAGES
WouId-Be Councilman Likes Municipal
Ownership and Believes in Pushing
the Owens River Water Project.
Good Labor for Good Pay

81 am inclined to favor municipal
ownership of public utilities, and where
corporations develop an inclination to
great greed and become arrogant 1 be-
lieve that at that moment should the
ownership be assumed by the people, u
said Enoch Hidden of 932 Bartlett
street, who recently announced his can
didacy for the office of councilman
from the Second ward.
Mr.. Hidden said further: "When II
reaches a point where the corporations
must own the city or the city own the
corporations l am with the people.
believe the people should own the water
supply, the fuel, the telephone and il
necessary they should also own the
transportation facilities. 1 believe in
the postal savings banks and the gov
ernment ownership of the trusts, rather
than the trusts owning and operating
the government.
"These are the principles upon which
I mean to go before the public Nas a
candidate for the office of councilman,
and l am confident that the people of
my ward will give me tkeir support OH
this plain, open and straightforward
statement.
II realize that it is very early in the
campaign for me to state my views and
announce my candidacy, but I have
been urged by my friends of all parties
to come out and state my views"
A Democrat
Mr.. Hidden is a Democrat in national
politics but in municipal politics is
liberal in his views and says he is by
no means hidebound. He has many
friends in the Republ. an ranks and
says he is certain that if he gets the
Nf.,s,t To-, L, n
publican vote. Mr.. Hidden also said:
Il do not hesitate to say that l stand
for justice to the working man as well
as for the employing class. 1 believe
the laborers employed by the city are
at present underpaid. / favor an i'm
crease of pay from 81 to 1925 a day and
the men working in the parks should
participate in the increase.
1t seems to me that the city should
pay that rate to the men employed on
the Owens river project also, for it is
better to pay good wages and get good
labor than to pay insufficient wages and
get inferior work done. A man cannot
support his family honestly and re-
specially for So day.
Il have been a railroad contractor,
farmer and a hotel keeper, and !
always received better service from the
lieH ellployeu Wnell pdlu tnen SOoQ
wages. There are many men employed
by the city who are drawing from S. to
SIS a day. and 1 believe that the men
in the lower ranks of service should be
better paid also. l believe in pushing
the water proposition to as early a
consummation as can be, for water is
necessary to make Los Angeles what
she is destined to be-one of the
greatest cities of the world.
Il am in favor of all measures that
will help to make Los Angeles the
great metropolis that it will certainly
one day become"

BOARD OF TRADE "SLATE"
WINS OUT AT HOLLYWOOD
CITIZENS MEETING FURNISHES
LITTLE EXCITEMENT
City Will Decide Whether Liquor
Shall Be Sold in Original Packages
or herWse-Threaten Bolt
Fails to MateriaIize

The board of trade "slate" for trus-
tees to be elected in Hollywood April
6 went through at the citizens meet
ing Ill Wilcox hall tonight, despite a
well organized attempt of the strictly
prohibition element to smash it.
The ''slate" contained the names Of
G. NJ. Lashley, Henry Gordon and H.
c. braves, and they were chosen on the
second formal ballot. The two last
the other one being A. w. Baird.
All of the nominees pledged to abide
by the initiative and referendum in the
conduct of city affairs, which means
that the city itself will decide whether
or not the hotel may serve liquor 10
its guests and the grocers and drug
gists sell it in original packages, which
is the whole point at issue
This fact took the sting out of the
nominations, and led the temperance
element to accept the nominations
gracefully, and not bolt as they had
threatened.
The balance of the ticket, all being
incumbents, named by acclamation
included: Marshal w. c. Fry: treas.
urer, G. w. Hoover; clerk, G. Fl. Field
The two hold-over trustees are G. H.
Dunlap, pledged to the referendum;
and c. Fl. Soules, a strictly dry" man.
VINO VIII vote no other way. Nomlnally
the drys will control the new board, and
this is another factor which leads them
to acquiesce in the result.
The chairman of the meeting was
Ex-Governor j. L. Beveridge, and the
secretary H. G. Candee. Wilcox hall
was packed with voters, the only wo-
men present being w. C. T. U. workers
1t was decided unanimously that the
board of trustees be asked to accept
the offer of Andrew Carnegie and that
a special tax of at least $1,000 per year
be voted for its support. The selection
of sites was indefinitely postponed.

CITRUS FRUIT GROWERS
PLAN ACTIVE CAMPAIGN
NEW ORGANIZATION PROMISES
WELL
Administrative Committee Meets To~
day and Members Expect Decisive
Action Will Be Taken--Lasting
Results Freely Predicted

Southern California's representative
citrus fruit growers are now actively
engaged in a campaign looking towards
protection all along the line.
The administrative committee of the
Citrus Protective league meets today
and it is predicted by those who know
that decisive action will be taken.
while there is no doubt but what
the recently formed league will bring
about beneficial and lasting results"
said B. A. Woodford, manager of the
Southern California Fruit exchange,
and himself member of the admin
istrative committee of the new organ
ization, "it will take time to do all
that must be done and the members
can hardly expect immediate returns"
This statement was made yesterday
in answer to the question: what will
be the first move OH the part of the
administrative committee?"
"As to what the first move will be
I am unable to answer" continued Mr..
Woodford.
"The committee meets today and of
course much preliminary work will be
taken up. There is no limit to the
things to be considered, and it would
be hard to say at this time what the
committee will decide to do first
Settle Differences
1t is understood that w. T. Michael
and the California citrus union have
settled their differences in Il satifac-
tory manner.
The trouble came up, it is alleged,
when Michael, who had mortgaged his
orange crop to the union for $4,000, at
tempted to remove the same before the
loan was paid. An armed guard was
placed around the orchard and later
an injunction was secured by the union
restraining Michael from making fur
ther inroads on the crop. The full
amount, it is understood, has now been
paid.

no trimming but the silk itself Flow
cred and figured silks are also effective
and becoming, and the colorings are
charming this season. India silks are
not suitable for this purpose, the taf-
fetas and soft finished silks being far
smarter. Figured India silks for day
wear are always charmingly cool and
more or less fashionable, and 1t seems
strange that lhey should never have
ben utilized for evening wear, but they
never have, and SO II is foolish to In
vest In them for that purpose. The
plain white are the exception and they
are made up with so much lace and

amounts to very little. and even then

Among the white dresses unquestion-

Irish or Valenciennes or the combina-
tion of two or more kinds OF laces.
Allover Valenciennes makes an exqui-
site gown, and for this time of year
should be made up over taffeta or a
thin satin finished silk, satin itself
being too heavy. Lace dresses were
never so fashionable as at present. and
while the heavier Irish lace seems to
be most popular for the daytime the
finer mesh of Valenciennes or point

1t is a mistake in summer to have
only lace, silk and net gowns. for so
many fascinatingly pretty materials are
fashioned just for summer wear that 1t
seems a pity not to take advantage of
them. All the silk mousselines, or
