Mayor Harper is much opposed 70
dropping the San Pedro-Los Angeles
annexation movement. He said so to
The Herald yesterday.
Lets not give up the annexation
idea" said he. I'VE may win yet.
The cause is a good one and If there
is a way-and l suppose there is-we
should find it and go ahead, regardless
of opposition, which is plainly in the
minority.
Personally / hope the agitation will
be kept up"
Los Angeles will not abate it's efforts
to get a harbor front on the Pacific
ocean.
Look to Wilmington
The law committee of the consolida-
tion commission will at once take up
the question of annexing Wilmington,
which adjoins San Pedro and has a
harbor frontage not tangled up with
railroad and corporation influences and
it's people are said to be willing to vote
for annexation.
In the meantime the movement to
annex San Pedro will be kept alive and
efforts will be made to dethrone Senator
Savage, who stood between the people
and their wants in the Legislature.
The first move will be to disincor-
porate Wilmington. Being a city of the
sixth class this is possible. When it
has been disincorporated annexation
with Los Angeles will be simply ques-
ton of an election.
The recently added shoestring strip
touches Wilmington, and the territory
thus added will be big in area and rich
in possibilities for development.

NAT C0GHLAN
SAYS A BRIBE
WAS OFFERED
Newspaper Man Tries
to Buy Votes
AssembIyman Declares Scribe offered
to Make Him Famous If the
Change Of Venue Bill
Passed

BY Associated Press.
SACRAMENTO, Feb. 19.-After two
hours of oratory such as the assembly
has not heard this session and in which
Grove L. Johnson and Nat Coghan at
times rose to dramatic heights of elo-
qucnce the lower house today passed
by vote of 81 to 22 Johnson's "change
of venue bill.
This measure provides that a judge
shall be disqualified from presiding at
trial where either side file affidavits of
prejudice or bias.
The consideration of the measure oc-
cupied almost the entire morning ses-
sion of the assembly and was marked
by a scathing arraignment of trials
and government by the press" and the
denunciation of the representative of u
San Francisco morning newspaper for
an alleged attempt to intimidate Kohl
man of the San Francisco delegation
into opposing the measure.
Terms 1t Lie
Coghlan prefaced his speech by de-
claring it was deliberate, damnable
lie" that the measure was introduced in
the interest of Ruef and Schmitz.
Walking up near the newspaper desks,
Coghlan stated that a certain news
paper man from San Francisco had ap-
preached a member of his delegation
and said that if he would stand up and
oppose the bill he would make him
famous and would heap infamy upon
other members of the delegation.
COghlan then denounced in vehement
language this alleged attempt at intim-
| dation. 1t was not until he finished
speaking that Coghlan gave out the
name of the newspaper and it's repi e.
sentative. Johnson preceded Coghlan
in one of his eloquent and dramatic
| speeches, which was repeatedly ap-
plauded. He said there was no other
| purpose to his bin than to give every
man square DEAL denied that it has
! been suggested or instigated by Ruef or
| Schmitz interests; asked whether a.
| change of venue from Judge Dunno TO
Judge Lawlor was not jumping from the
frying pan into the fire for them; drew
dark picture of judicial tyranny and
alluded to the case of Adolph Weber
and Theodore Durrant as an example of
trials and convictions by the press.

MANY RARE ANIMALS ON VIEW
Riglins Bros MenaserIe Like a Course
 in Natural History.

Of all the strange animals that ever have been exhibited in America, none is so rare as the rhinoceros. Every body has heard of the rhinoceros, but few have seen one. For twenty years he has been missing from the Amer ican geological collections for the req son that there has been none to he had. until now the Ringing Brothers are exhibiting very fine specimen, secured at great cost.
 The giraffe, too. is very rare ami
 nal. and the Ringing Brothers have the only three in this country. They
 travel in padded wagons, and during exhibition hours are kept in pens
 twenty feet high. The heads of these
 remarkable, animals tower high above the pens into the very dome of the canvas. The giraffe is found only in
 Central Africa in the sparse forest belt that hugs the equator. about five de- grees north and south. Animal trap pers have driven them farther and far ther into the impenetrable thickets, so that only now and then one is found, and even then, being such a delicately constituted animal. it seldom survives transporting.
 A peculiar African moss must be fed to the giraffe. and so it may be seen
 that even after he is captured and
 safely carried away. the matter of feeding him is difficult problem. ! The giraffe has no vocal organs, and
 so can utter no sound. He seldom drinks water. depending on the mois- ture he draws from fresh grasses and vegetables
 There are two enormous hippopota- mi in Ringing Brothers gardens of zoology that are also attracting great
 attention. They are the only ones to
 be seen in this country. Other rare
 beasts in this great menagerie are horned horses. tapirs viak vaarks. Philippine cattle. behemoth. chim- panZees. ibeXes. llamas, yaks. nylghaus. zebues. gnus. water buffalo. sacred oxen. laughing hyenas, bears from all climates. black leopards, kangaroos. all forms of the cat family. many kinds of deer. camels, dromedaries, zebras, and nine herds of elephants.

Tribolet have returned to America and are now visiting in Iowa.
 The young men who arrived yes- terday expected to find MT. Tribolet here but were disappointed. and for a time were in an embarrassing plight one which however will be overcome as they learn the English language They met the Tribolet boys but were unable to communicate with them neither being familiar with the others language. One Swiss boy knew he had cousins and there was handshak- ing all round but nothing doing when it came to talking. However, the young men soon found people in the city who could talk their language and were in little time as much at home in Phoenix as strangers can be in a strange land. All of which shows the cosmopolitan population of the city and valley. the land of many peoples and many tongues.
 Having come so far they are cer- tainly entitled to a welcome for their bravery in facing the obstacles and as the Swiss are hardy, enterprising peo- pie. of T mountainous country that breeds a race accustomed to natural hardships. they will no doubt follow the leaS of many other of their coun- trymen in making success in Amer ica and be always counted as among the desirable citizens

ROSEBERRY'S WOES
 REACH FORGERY STAGE
He Makes Use of His Brothers Name to the Extent of $50.

O. J. Roseberry. a section foreman on the S. F. P. & P. has been travel ing over a badly macadamiZed piece of road for some time. Since he burst across the horizon a few weeks ago, almost simultaneously with the ap- pearance of the comet. he has attract ed almost as much attention. within a limited space, as that luminary.
 Roseberry is now in the county jail on a charge of forgery preferred against him by NJ. L. Vieux. the pro- prietor of the Anheuser saloon. where he secured $50 on forged check the night before. The check bore what purported to be the signature of H. Roseberry, a responsible brother. who holds the position of assistant road master on the s. F. P. & F. The check was drawn on the Phoenix National Bank and when it was presented yes terday morning the signature was pronounced a forgery. That fact should have suggested itself even to a blind man, for the name was preced- ed by the honorary title of "Mr. which one never uses in cases of this kind. The amount of money designed to be conveyed by the check was de- scribed by the word "Fiftuy."

 One of the young men is a cousin of the Tribolet boys. They were all induced to come here by the good missionary work of MT Tribolet while in his native land.
