COUNTY NON-PARTISAN TICKET

It has not escaped the attention of
the people of Los Angeles county that
the Southern Pacific machine, under
the orders of Walter Parker, is doing
it's utmost to elect the ticket NOM
mated at Venice by Parker, under cir
cumstances so subversive of Republi-
canism that a revolt ensued.
But the machine has made little
headway, and of late it has chosen
to concentrate all its forces in an ef-
fort to save from the wreck those
offices which are specially needed to
further railroad interests. And to that
end the whole power of the railroad
and other corporate influences is be-
ing exerted to defeat Ben E. Ward
for assessor; DR.. James P. Booth for
coroner; DR.. Lamb for supervisor, and
the on-partisan nominees for the SEN
ate and assembly.
But even as these assaults become
fiercer and more unscrupulous the hon.
est people-Republican and Democrats
alike-are manifesting line of active
defense and aggressive fighting that
augurs ill for the machine. There is
great necessity, however, for con-
tinuous and active movement in favor
of the non-partsan ticket until the
last moment of election day. The vot-
ers should know that nothing will be
left undone by the machine to defeat
| those nominees who are most desired
by and most necessary to the tax
payers. Hence the lively interest
shown by the people in the success of
the non-partisan ticket should be re-
doubled and made even more emphatic
and earnest.
| And in order that the people may
| thoroughly familiarize themselves with
every name on the non-partisan ticket.

ABE RUFF IN CONTROL

Cant phrases, campaign abuse and the
beating Of tomtoms by the few Republic
can organs that are supporting James
N. Gllett for governor cannot change
the unalterable fact that Abe Ruef, the
San francisco looter and boss, Is a
member Of the Republican state execu-
tive committee, having In immediate
charge the Gillett campaign.
II Abe Ruef were not the sponsor and
the political and personal friend of Gill
lett, does anybody presume that Abe
Ruef would be the chief member of
that committee?
In all states it is the custom for the
nominee for governor to indicate those
of the state committee whom he de-
sires appointed on the executive conn
mittee, in order that those most loyal
and enthusiastic in his cause may be
placed at the front. Following that GUS
tom, Abe Ruef is In high authority and
favor, and it is to Abe Ruef the South
ern Pacific machine and it's nominees
look for victory.
Unfortunately for Gillett and the ma
chine, disclosures have come so rapidly
Of late in San Francisco that Abe Ruef
is compelled to devote a large share
of his time and money to a vain effort
to escape the clutches of Heney and
the grand jury. Hence the machine
campaign. deprived Of some of Abe
Ruef's favorite methods. wobbles and
creaks and gives forth sounds Indicative
of complete collapse.
Decent and patriotic Republicans of
Southern California have come to un-
derstand that their once grand old party
organization, to which they have been
hitherto proud to refer as ''the party of
Lincoln and Grant" is in the complete,
control of Boss Abe Ruef, Boss William
+. Herrln, Boss 'arker and all rest
of the Southern Pacific bosses, big and
little, and their duty to their state and
country demands that they vote for
Theo. A. Bell and the state Democratic
ticket; Bell, a free, untrammeled, cour-
ageous honest man; Bell, who has been
indorsed by the Union Labor party on
the simple pledge that he would, if
elected give to every citizen a square
deal"; Bell, who is fighting Abe Ruef,
Herrin and Hearst from Siskiyou to San
Diego and from the mountains to the
sea.
And as for Abe Ruef. he hasn'
changed any. He is the same Abe Ruef
who carried the San Fra ncisco delega =
ton to Santa Cruz and traded it to
Herrin and Gillett in return for patron
age and emoluments. He is the same
Abe Ruef who sat at that little machine
banquet-the same Abe Ruef upon
whose shoulder Gillett laid his hand af-
fectionately and had his picture taken.
The wild spasm of virtue in certain:
quarters just now is not occasoned by
any change in Abe Ruef. oh, no! But
Abe Ruef is being prosecuted, found out
and rendered more and more odious,
and the big and little machine nominees
are trying to tell the people they never
knew him.
The whole situation is as plain as
the nose on your face. It's simply Bell
and decency against Gillett and the
Abe Ruef-S. P. machine.

GRAND JURY ASKS
CHANGES IN FARM
SAYS INSTITUTIONS ARE IN
BAD SHAPE
Find Filth and Vermin at Poorhouse
Supervisors Scored for Permit
ting Such Conditions
to Exist

Startling disclosures of the existing
conditions at the county poor farm and
other county institutions were made
yesterday in the partial report of the
county grand jury filed with Judge
Trask in department four of the SUI
perior court.
From time immemorial each county
grand jury has regularly looked into
conditions at the poor farm, upbraiding
the supervisors for their lack of care
for the home of the county aged and
poverty stricken.
This year the conditions have been
even more aggravated, since proposed
change in the farm is about to be made,
and the jurors probably found it at its
worst.
In years past reports have been made
to the effect that gunny sacks were used
instead of sheets. That incident was
later explained by the Superintendent,
who stated that during the day the
gunny sacks were spread over the
beds so that the old men might lie
down without removing their boots.
Want Change
In the report made yesterday the
jurors strongly recommended a change.
That change is already planned for and
has been planned by the supervisors for
ecNGIdl uAOithS past iiARJ hoNS FiitAPtJ
been waiting for the voting of the bonds
at the coming election to place fund
of about $4,000 in their hands for the
purpose of fixing up the poor farm and
getting it in good shape.
The complaints made by the Jurors
relative to the county hospital will all
be attended to from the same fund
which will be voted upon within the
next three weeks.
AS for the clause of the detention
home, that proposition has been an eye
sore to the county for years past, and
new detention home will be erected
within the next six months If the bonds
carry.
Such have been the plans of the SUI
pervlsors, and 1t is expected that the
bonds viii be voted through in rapid
order and that the county will once
again have clean record in regard TO
the care of its wards.
Following Is the partial report of the
grand jury turned In yesterday.
"The grand jury of this county I'm ses-
sion at this time desires herewith to
present a partial report referring to
needs that In our opinion should have
Immediate attention:
"As a committee of the whole, the
grand jury recently visited, among 9TH
