Governor Smith for Georgia immediately wired for information as to whether fed eral assistance was necessary at any point within the state. Similar action was taken in Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana. and at some points state troops have been called out to guard devastated districts and to aid local au- thorties in relief work. Tents and sup plies have been sent to many of the towns wrecked.

EDITORIAL COMMENT.

At the next session of the state
legislature there will be offered for
enactment law which should receive
the hearty endorsement of everyone.
1t will seek to regulate the sale of
seed in the state. At present the
buyer of seed has absolutely no pro-
lection or any assurance that the seed
Is fresh. The stock left over from one
season can be offered for sale the
next without legal hindrance. A see1
inspection law has been passed in
some states, with the result that the
increase in productivity of the soil
Was marked. Seed inspection could
be carried on in this state with prac-
tically no cost. as professors at the
agricultural college at Pullman could
do the work in the laboratories with
but little assistance. The Everett cit
izcn who has put his faith in the Ia
bel and sowed his lawn with alleged
clover or other variety in the hope OF
realizing T. verdant carpeting, and la
te" found that he had planted chick
weel. will be an earnest advocate OF
pure seed egislation.-Everett 'Trsb-
une.

Angeles Railway company were made
in accordance with this policy. The
existing pole line companies on those
streets remodeled their systems so as
to accommodate the span and feed
wires of the railway company.
Some Examples
A notable example of the new policy
can be seen on the west side of Grand
avenue between Tenth and Jefferson
streets, where formerly the Pacific
Light and Power company, the Los
Angeles Railway company, the Los
Angeles Gas and Electric company
and the Edison Electric company each
had separate pole lines, and where now
they occupy one common pole.
Among the streets that will be in the
near future improved in the same man.
ner are Maple avenue. between Tenth
and Jefferson streets, North Main
street from Maud Junction to Los An
geles river. and Santa F'e avenue be-
tween First and Third streets. A por-
tion of this work is now under way.
BY following this policy it is hoped
that within a few years all unneces-
sary poles, or at least most of them
will have been removed from the
streets and the several so-called pole
companies will be in joint construc-
tion almost everywhere.

WILL LECTURE ON THE
INEVITABLE EUROPEAN WAR
Authority on Subject Will Speak Next
Monday Night at the Simpson
observation-disclosures Club
to Attend

The closing lecture of the series of
talks on European history, civics and
politics will be delivered by Prof. Luto-
lawsky Monday night at Simpson audi
forum.
Prof Lutolawsky has chosen a sub
ject which his previous lectures have
led up to, the title being "The Imminent
and Inevitable European War" From
the writings of this author it can be
seen he is capable of giving the re-
Quired information on the subject.
He speaks from authority and per-
sonal observation and has analysed
the various causes leading up to the
present political situation and knows
not only the present situation but the
remote historical and political data,
which has had considerable to do with
the gradual bringing about of the ap-
preaching crisis.
Two hundred members of the New
man club have secured seats for this
event, and the lecturer will be intro
duced by Joseph Scott. Madame Mod
jeska and Count Bozenta will be pres
ent as we'll as a large number of Poles
living in Southern California.
This will be the professors last ap-
pearance in Los Angeles and the third
event of the New University course.

deputies rewarded, and the value of
the county's big red automobile has
been shown.
1.-THE Rabbit" sometimes known as
Louis Wiley, a negro, escaped from the
county jail Tuesday afternoon in a
manner that would have done credit to
the shrewdest jailbird.
His method was the simplest, and
therefore the least suspicion was
aroused when he joined a number of
visitors in the Jail corridor and walked
with them into the open air, free
man for the time being.
Since his disappearance deputies have
been securing every part of the city
and surrounding country, but not until
4 o'clock yesterday afternoon was any
thing definite concerning the where
abouts of the escape learned. At that
hour Sheriff Hammel received tele-
phone message that the man would DC
found at 1922 Claiming street.
Bundling a half dozen deputies into
the big automobile, the sheriff started
for the place indicated, and found the
house to be a small five-room cottage
The place was surrounded and The
sheriff, accompanied by Deputy w. L.
Woods, entered the house
The building was thoroughly ran
sacked and the officers had almost con-
cluded they had gone on wild-goose
chase, when Woods spied dark figure
clinging to couple of beams in the
attic. Leveling his revolver, he or
dered the man to descend, and WITHIN
twenty minutes after the party had
left the county Jail it returned with the
prisoner. -,
Wiley was taken to the county jail
from the police station on TUESDAY,
where he had been bound over to the
superior court on a charge of holding
up and robbing a Chinaman of $lOO on

Floyd. The majority of the stockhold-
ers of this concern, he says, are now
trying to force him out, and to pre-
vent this he began an action to dissolve
the corporation. which was to have
been decided Monday.
In order to get him out of the way
Wilson claims, Greedy came to Los An
geles and induced Mrs. Floyd to swear
out the complaint against him.
Wilson has many friends among busi-
ness men in Los Angeles. He will re.
turn to Oakland and resume his legal
fight against the corporation and bring
proceedings against it's legal represen-
tative, whom he claims made the false
which caused his ar
rest
