The speaker then suggested that it

network of parks and boulevards: in
deed, to include the entire county in
the scheme, and create a beauty spot

Some such method. embracing, of
course, an immediate extension of the
sewer system, and the rapid installa-

Owens river. will enhance values i'm
mensely; will engender more ardent
spirit of local patriotism: and will at
tract and hold the attention and bring
into our midst increasing numbers of
the most desirable settlers from all over
the world" he said.
Turning to the political complexion
of affairs Mr.. Tyrrell said:
mo more brilliant opportunity ever
confronted any set of men than that
which now opens alluringly before the
incoming administration. You gentle
men have 1t in your power to provide
! the material setting for the Paris of
America. If the old Roman emperor

Italy 600 years ago? And IL we go back
a century, where was Germany if not

As to Liberalism
"There could not possibly be a finer
emphasis upon the true greatness Of
nations so of cities. In all candor, Mr..
Mayor, without acidity or acerbity, we
must speak; and 1t is commonly ru-
mored that you have been elected by
the so-called liberal element of the
open town. That they are expecting a
lax enforcement of law; that transgres-
sors will be leniently dealt with or their
offenses CLOSED over and ignored. From
what we have learned of your char
acter, we believe that If theis expecta-
ton is a fact, II is doomed TO an abso-
lutte and we trust an early disappoint-
ment We no not occupy the ground Of
impracticable ideas; we do not stand on
the street corner with the Pharisee;
we know that this is a fiesh-and-b blood
sort of world still; that men have pas
sions and appetites; that the millen-
MUM has been sidetracked indefinitely;
and yet, we know with just as much
certainty that the public stock of hon
est manly virtues increases every day.
We believe that While elected by a mi-
nority, you are nevertheless of sufficient
caliber to be the mayor OF all the city
all the time.
Now, If 1t should be necessary be-

Promise Of Support
"But now we feel that we can assure
you and your cabinet of the confidence
and esteem of your fellow citizens, and
of the hearty willingness of any and
every man as far as opportunity offers
or means allow to cooperate with you
in making the Harper administration
illustrious in the annals of Los An

seekers"
Mr., Tyrrell dwelt at length on the
character of public officials as COM
mercial asset, and in closing said:
"Mr. Mayor, should the storm come,
as come 1t may, not to say must, we
wish you well, and we assure you of
disinterested friendship. And when the
storm comes, say with Seneca's pilot.

Mr.. TyrrelIs remarks frequently were
interrupted by applause. and at the
close of the gathering he was sur
rounded by many of the new officials
and members of the Municipal league
and heartily thanked for his remarks

Tyrreli Talks
The toastmaster announced as the last
speaker Frank O.. Tyrell q man who,
he said, had made civic affairs a special
study, but who, although a native son,
was a recent acquisition of Los Angeles.
The speaker, who for a number OF
years was an orator of distinction in
the east, was at his best, and he re-
tained the interest of his audience for
over an hour.
After felicitating the company and
the officers elect Mr.. Tyrrell discussed
briefly the civic situation.
I'VE are and should be limited by
pre-existing conditions. 1t is impossi-
ble," he said, "to break abruptly with
the past, even IL we wished to. But
fortunately our inheritance is not bad.

City Attorney Speaks
Mr.. Hewitt said that Los Angeles has
before it a future 81 which the past
merely is a reflection, and he predicted
that the new officials would do the best
they could for the interests of the city
which all love so we'll.
He said that as the affairs of the city
grew in Importance it became more

interest in public business, Good sug-
gestions always would be welcome and
they would receive the greatest con-

ELECTRIC LIGHT AND
POWER HOUSE BURNED

San Francisco, April 3. - The de-
struction of the electric light and pow
er house of the San Francisco Gas and
Electric company by fire Tuesday night
plunged almost the entire city into
darkness, resulted III the injuring of
five firemen and caused loss estimated
at 81, 900, 900. The following firemen
are in the Potrero emergency hospital
seriously injured: Captain Thomas J.
Murphy of engine 30; Lieutenant Hay
den, Lieutenant Dantey, Lieutenant
Kelsher, Lieutenant. j. De Mar.
The firemen were caught by falling
walls when the building unexpectedly
collapsed. The destroyed power house
was the principal electric and power
plant of San Francisco Gas and Elec-
trio company, and furnishing the cleo
trio lights for the larger portion of the
city.
Out of the nine leading theaters, six
could give no performance.
Extra police were placed on duty at
the temporary hall of justice and city
prison at Eddy and Mason streets.
Owing to the darkness, the building
having no gas connections, no one was
allowed to enter or leave the city pris-
on and no prisoners were released on
bail
The fire started shortly before
O'Clock. 1t was caused, it is said. by
the explosion of a steam pipe in the
engine room, which scattered fuel oil
in all directions. The oil Immediately
caught fire, ignited the oil tank, which
exploded, and in few minutes the en-
tire building with its valuable machin-
cry was wrapped in flames.
