reduction on this through grain on the

to bear on the Frisco which IL the Rock

have given notice that they intend TO put

Another step Forward.

This year the board made another step
toward honesty in the census. 1t ordered
that stores, factories. Offices and business
institutions of all kinds be dropped from
nquisition, reasoning that IL the homes and
dwelling places were covered properly all
the persons OF school age would be found.
And to prove that the board was right in

instead of eighteen and II ls presumed the
reckoning was made with more care than

ward, however, more than accounts for the
decrease. The boundaries of the Third were

The Seventh Congressional District
convention Will meet September 20 in
Los Angeles.
Many Of the party leaders on the Re-
publican side OF the House regard the
election Of Congressman as of greater
Importance TO the party than the elec-
tion of the State ticket. The Democrats
in this campaign intend to devote their
special energies to win the office of
Governor. So little interest was mani
tested in the nominations lower down
on the ticket that very many delegates
and several entire delegations left the
convention hall as soon as the nomina-
tion of Bell was declared.
There was warm session of the
Second. or Southern District APPELLATE
Court convention. Many of the leading
Democratic politicians of Los Angeles
wanted the Bourbons to make good on
the proposition that the judiciary
should be eliminated from politics
hence this resolution was introduced by
" o. Morton:

'I am out to all newspaper repre-
'sentatives, do you understand"
There was no mistaking the voice of
Mrs. Hermann Oelrichs as the words of
the lady directed to timid bell boy,
in no misleading tone, were heard
through the thin partitions of the st.
Francis Hotel annex late last evening.
The widow of the well-known New
York and San Francisco clubman.
whose will is threatened with a bitter
contest, arrived from the East last
night, and it was while she was hur-
riedly rearranging her travelling toilet
preparatory to accompanying some
friends to the hotel cafe that she issued
those peremptory orders to a youthful
attendant of the hostelry. She had
made up her mind to repulse. interview
ers, and carried out her determination.
Mrs. Oeirichs," explained one of her
intimate friends, docs not care TO dis
cuss her family affairs at the present
time for publication. and as matter of
fact an interview upon the distressing
subject of her husbands death and the
reported intentions of his widow to
contest his will would sadden her home

NEW YORK SCENE OF CONTEST.
But while Mrs. Oelrichs refused to
meet newspaper reporters she did dis
cuss her affairs with her friends. and
1t was one of the latter who informed
the reporters in the evening that Mrs
Oelrichs had privately announced that

husband so long claimed as his home
The arrival of Mrs. Oelrichs has slim

will of the late Hermann Oelrichs has
been looked forward to with keen in
terest ever since the first intimation
came from New York that the widow
of the clubman was displeased with
the manner her husband disposed of
his estate. 1t gave promise OF inter-
esting developments. with which but
few of the most intimate friends OF
the couple were acquainted.
IT was Known here that Hermann
Oelrichs and his wife had practically
separated several years ago. 1t was
also known that they parted after he
had been literally provided for by his
wealthy wife. Likewise IL was COM
mon property among the clubmen that
after they had parted she allowed him
t., act as her agent here and then sud-
denly cut him off and that thereafter
their relations were not even of a
friendly character
But even with this knowledge long
in it's possession clubdon hankered
after a revival of the family scandal
with refreshing incidents that would
naturally be dragged out with the Oel-
richs family skeleton. Society, how
ever, is doomed to disappointment. for.
il Mrs. Oelrichs' friend is correct, the
contest will not be a matter for the
consideration of the local courts.

M /. Allen, Republican,. was, however
nominated for presiding justice. George
ii smith, Democratic incumbent, was
also nominated.
The Los Angeles Bourbons were
highly indignant over what they
termed the blind partisan attitude of
the ex-Missourians who inhabit the
counties Of Kings. Tulare and kern.
Judge McNutt, Chairman of the district
convention, was disgusted. He re-
marked that the chance OF winning one
or the justices and adding 1000 votes
TO the head of the State ticket had been
thrown away.

1t is common talk among the former
associates of Hermann Oelrichs that
a divorce would have probably terni
mated his marital relations with the
daughter of the late Senator Fair had

portunity for much comment, which is
said to have greatly angered his wife
CRITICISED HIS TREATMENT.
Friends of the husband were not dis
posed to sympathize with him. al
though they had already learned of'the
wife's determination to cut her hus-
band off for good For nearly two
years they had been warning bitterly.
At the time. Mrs. Oelrichs became dis
satisfied with her husbands manage
ment of her estate and revoked the
power of attorney she had given him.
IL is said she did not nince words In
criticising his treatment of her, and
made no attempt to disavOw her re-
sponsibility for his removing his desk
from the Fair building on Montgom-
cry street and taking up quarters in
the law offices of Reuben Lloyd, one
of the former Fair estate counselors-
Her friends claim that but for inter-
ference of friends m New York she
would have publicly announced that
her husband was no longer her agent
here and otherwise humiliated him as
a punishment for the many wrongs
which she charged him with.
RELATIONS REMAINED STRAINED.
From that.day to HIS death their re-
lations were strained and friends re-
allied that there was no hope OF
reconciliation. She had given her hus-
band. when they arranged settlement.
