The present method Of electing sen

reform will require time, but the sen

DIRECT PRIMARIES
FEARED BY MACHINE,
SAYS N0N-PARTlSAN

G.. NJ. Giffen, non-partisan nominee
for state senator from the Thirty
eighth district, in an interview yester-
day. said regarding the political situ-
alton:
THE machine fears popular senti-
ment. 1t is afraid of the direct pri-
mary. Direct nominations at prima-
ries will do more, in my judgment,
to abolish machine rule than any
other one factor. There will be little
opportunity for combines, trades and
purchasing of nominations under the
new plan which will be in happy con-
trast to the present convention system
where the slate is usually prepared be-
fore the caucus is held, where candi-
dates are practically decided upon be-
fore primay elections and where the
convention becomes practically clear
ing house for delivery of the goods.
another need of California, espe-
cially Southern California, is the pub
lie reservation of harbor frontages l
see a great menace to the welfare of
the state in the exclusive control of
wharves and shipping facilities by cor
poration interests and feel that active
measures should be devised that this
evil may be eliminated This subject
is one of special importance to the
future prosperity of Los Angeles,
1.-The evils of our present corporation
dominated state, county and munich
pal governments are so many, so
grave, so apparent, that all our think
ing people are more or less conversant
with them. The thing for us to con-
slider is, What is the remedy?
"The people must answer.
eliminating the personal element it
seems to me that a great step in the
right direction will have been taken
if the people rise to the opportunity
and elect the entire non-partisan
ticket.
II can safely promise for the nom
partisan legislative candidates that IL
elected, the people of Southern Cali
fornia will get the very best service

Disarming Commission Encounters No
Trouble In Work

1t is reported that some of Del Cas-
tillo's followers were reluctant to dis
arm but all the brigade commanders
Major Ladd an order directed to all
their men will disarm and disband
when ordered to do so by General del
Castillo.
This afternoon General Castillo gave
Major Ladd an order directing to all
his subordinate commanders and tell
ing them to comply with every re-
quest made by the American officer.
Major Ladd will work tonight to carry
out the diSbanding arrangements.
The disarming commission which was
sent to Santa Clara province entered
the CienfueSos district this afternoon.
A dispatch received here from the AS
ISOLATED Press correspondent who is
with the commission filed at Cruces, re-
ports that the commission received an
ovation all the way from Santa Clara.
The revolutionists encamped at vari-
Gus points along the line we're all will
ing to diSarm and disband, believing
thoroughly in the honest intention of
President Roosevelt and Secretary Taft
The speech delivered by Governor Taft
before the University of Havana has
been received with great satisfaction
by both the revolutionists and the gov
ernmept party in Santa Clara province
Major Melville reports that 1000 arms
have been quietly turned over to the
committee by the rebels in Pinar del
Rio.
The correspondent of the Associated
Press who traversed the region west
ward of Havana, in which the rebels
have been encamped, says their num-
bers are rapidly decreasing.
The disarming commission proceeded
TO Cienfuegos this afternoon accom-
panied by the former rebel leader Gem
eral Guzman.

FARISH ANNOUNCES HIS
CANDIDACY FOR MAYOR
ON DEMOCRATIC TICKET

Oscar E. Parish, who represented
the Third ward in the council in 1908
and 1904, yesterday formally announced
that he is in the race for the nomi-
nation for mayor on the Democratic
ticket.
Mr.. Parish was the opponent of
former Mayor Snyder at the last city
convention, and up to the present he
is the only announced candidate for
the nomination, although 1t has been
known for some time that the friends
of A. c. Harper, cashier of the State
Bank and Trust company, have de-
clared him a candidate
Mr.. Harper has not stated definitely
whether he would or would not accept
the nomination, but his original back
ers are energetically at work on the
theory that he can be induced to per-
init his name to go before the con-
Vention.
Mr.. Parish said yesterday that so
many of his friends. including not a
few Republicans, had urged him to
enter the race that he concluded to
formally announce his candidacy. He
has been a resident of Los Angeles
for eleven years. and during all of this
time he has lived in the Third ward.

BY Associated Press
WASHINGTON, Oct. 3.-At the
presidents request, Franklin NJ. Bell
chief Of staff, will proceed as soon as
possible to Havana, to consult with Sec
retary Taft as to the disposition of the
American troops.
When General Bell returned to the
war department. after his personal con-
ference with the president, at which he
received his orders to go to Cuba, he
found on his desk a direction by the
president that General Thomas II.
Barry, assistant schief Of staff, should
be designated as acting chief of staff
in General Bells absence.
General Bell said he knew practically
nothing of the reasons for his being
ordered to Cuba, except that the presi-
dent had received from Secretary Taft
a request that he be ordered there.
While in Cuba General Bell, by virtue
of his rank will be in command of the
American troops on the island. Cen
eral Bell will probably leave for Ha-
vana the last of this week, as he will
have to go from Tampa or Miami, Fla,
on merchant liner Sunday next.

LUTHER BROWN DENIES
CHARGE OF USE OF
FEDERAL PATRONAGE {

Luther Brown yesterday declared
most emphatically that there Is no
ground for the intimation that offers
of postmastership had been made to
editors of country papers In Los An
geles county in return for support for
the straight Republican ticket and es-
pecially the Republican nominees for
assessor and supervisor from the
Third district
There is not a word Of truth in
any statement that 1 have offered
anyone any postoffice. or any othei
position or reward, for supporting Mr..
Hartwell for assessor. l do not pre-
tend to have any postoffices at my
disposal"
Charles l. Mosteller, editor of the
Hollywood Sentinel, on whose state
ment the intimation was given cur
rency, said yesterday:
I'm my original interview l said
that Mr.. Brown was the man to see
about postmasterships-not that he
said he was the one.
Mr.. Brown wrote me letter ask
ing me to call at his office. / did
so and he said he wanted to see me
regarding space in my paper for Cal
vim Hartwell
81 told him l probably would sup
port Ben Ward, the Independent cam
didate. He asked me not to tie my
self up until he could prepare figures
and have me meet Mr.. Hartwell. He
did not have further time to take up
the matter, as he was going north.
MY second call was made when
Mr.. Brown returned from the north.
He said he was not ready to do any
thing with the Hartwell matter just
then and asked me about affairs at
Hollywood
During the conversation l told him
about the complaint regarding the
manner in which the affairs of the
postoffice were conducted. He said the
matter should be investigated.
After the conversation / was sat
isfied that if my paper supported
Hartwell l would stand higher in
Browns favor in case there should be
a vacancy in the postoffice at Holly
wood. / knew that Brown was the
man to see in regard to postmaster
ships.
IT am supporting Ben Ward for as.

visor in the Third district. do SO

DISARMAMENT AND NO DISORDER
Marines Are Prepared to Enforce Re-
spect for the Flag

BY Associated Press
HAVANA, Oct. 3.--The alacrity with
which the rebels are laying down their
arms to the commission appointed to
superintend that important phase of the
termination of the revolution is the
greatest surprise the PROVISIONAL gover-
ment has yet encountered in it's smooth
working program.
This operation is now well under way
in the vicinity of Havana, 700 of Guer-
ras men with their horses having al
ready been entrained for Pinar del
Rio when one brigade marched to
Guanajay today without a sign of dis
order.
Hundreds of persons from Havana
went out to Santiago de Las Vegas and
Ripcon today to view the disarmament.
They were disappointed at not seeing
the rebels actually surrender their
guns, but nevertheless they witnessed
an interesting sight.
AS a concession to the men General
Funston and Major Ladd permitted
them to take their arms to Pinar del
Rio, where most of the men Joined the
insrrgent army. The rifles, however,
were first counted by officers of marines
under the direction OF Major Badd and
the men will be required to surrender
them before leaving the train at Pinar
del Rio.
The marines sent to Pinar del Rio
last night were prepared to enforce
order and see that the disbanded rebels
dispersed quietly to their homes.
General Guerra had promised that
1000 men would be ready for entrain-
ment today. but the preparation of the
muster rolls required so much time, as
each contains a minute description of
every mans horse in order to prevent
substitution en- route or after arrival,
that another special train conveying 400
men and horses will leave Rincon for
Pinar del Rio tomorrow.
The remainder of Guerra's men will
be marched to Guanajay and other
nearby points in Pinar del Rio province
as rapidly as the muster rolls are pre-
