MINORITY REPORT is MADE
BY LINcoLN-RoOSEVELTERs

Following is the minority report of
the committee on resolutions, drawn up
by Messrs. Wallace, Hewitt and Wood,
which was sidetracked by the machine
majority:
We enclose the preamble-the strongly
worded approval of our national candidates
Taft and Sherman, the paragraph under
the heading of president Roosevelt;"
Also that portion of the paragraph under
the heading Citrus Fruit Industry" down
to and including the word that the tariff
on lemons be increased from cent to a
cent and half per pound;"
Also the paragraph providing the creating
of a greater navy and favoring increased
appropriations for the development of outer
and inner harbors for San Pedro and tor
the federal building at Los Angeles
Also the paragraph favoring direct pri-
maries and mandatory primary laws.
The paragraph entitled race track evils
candidates pledge consolidation"
Also the paragraph favoring legislation
for the annexation of contiguous territory
and adjacent cities to the city of Los An
geles and for the popular vote for United
States senator.
AS a substitute for the platform as re-
ported by the majority of the committee We
offer the above designated paragraphs ane
in addition thereto the following;
l. The enactment of such laws as VII
penalize any violation of the provision o.
Il
the state of California. forbiddirg rebate
| and determinations by transportation com
| panies but which section for tWenty-nln
| years has remained dead letter and utterl
| imperative.
| g. A reciprocal demurrage bill modelled
after the Texas car law and substantiall!
embodied in assembly bill 225, which failet
to pass the legislature of 1907, providing
that railroads must pay shippers damages
for failure to deliver cars to them Tor tht
transportation of goods within a reasonable
time after said cars have been ordered
We believe with the trainers OF the Re
publican national platform that the admin
istration of Theodore Roosevelt Is an epocI
in American history.
In no other period since national sover-
eighty was won under washington or pre-
served under Lincoln has there been such
mighty progress in those ideals OF govern,
ment which make for Justice, equality ano
fair dealing among men.
The highest aspirations of the American
people have found voice. Their mos
exalted servant represents the best aims ano
Worthiest purposes of all his countrymen
American manhood has been lifted to
nobler sense of obligation.
Conscience and courage in public station
and higher standards of right and wrong IT
private life have become cardinal principles
of political faith.
The great accomplishments OF Fresluen
Roosevelt have been first ana foremost
brave and impartial enforcement or laws
the prosecution of Illegal trusts and monop'
olIas: the exposure and punishment Of evil
doers in the public service; a more enectNe
regulation of the rates. and the service oi
great corporation lines; the complete over
throw of preferences, rebates ana discrhh-
nations.

Take Trip, Then to Buy Drink.
Knocked Her Down and
Took Purse

Mrs. Cordy Forbes, who says she is
a music teacher, but refused to give
her address, was taken to the rece1v-
ing hospital at IL o'clock last night for
treatment for a laceration of the upper
lip.
Mrs. Forbes stated to the police she
had met man on the street who in
troduced himself to her and asked her
to take a street car ride. She accepted
the invitation and they rode to the
end of the Hooper avenue line and
back to Eighth street.
At Eighth and Main streets the man,
who had given his name as johnson,
asked her to buy a drink. She de-
clined to do so and, according to her
story, he knocked her down and
grabbed her purse, which contained $35,
and ran away.
Two patrolmen and two detectives
investigated the story. but beyond the
fact that the woman was struck in the
face by a male companion they put lit
tie credence in the tale she related.

Consolidation

We very strongly favor some feasible plans
Of consolidation by which dual administrative
offices existing in this city and county

territory and cities in the county of Los An
geles, with alternate provision for the es-
tablishment of borough system of government
in such annexed cities in and by which the
