FORMER MARSHAL
SUES FOR POSITION
BEACH POLICE FIGHT REACHES
SUPERIOR COURT
Old Officer Claims Appointment Re
Gently Made by Newly Elected
Mayor Is Not
Legal

Who is chief of police Of Long Beach
That is the question which must be de-
termined by the superior court TO the
satisfaction of George w. Young, the
only man entitled to wear the star OF au-
thorfty as marshal prior to the action or
the legislature last year which made the
place a city of the fourth class and
placed 1t in a position where man dig
nified with a more metropolitan title
could be chosen to watch over the peace
and quiet of the inhabitants.
In order to discover his rights Young
has brought suit against Mayor c. III.
Windham, the city council and Thomas
w. williams. The latter now carries the
baton of power as head of the police de-
partment-wrongfully. Young says.
According to the allegations in Young
complaint Windham, who became mayor
January 6, appointed Williams chief of
police a week later under the provisions
of an ordinance adopted the previous
day by the city council.
The ordinance, Young declares, is void
as it disregards the civil service pro-
visions of the charter and the qualifiica-
lions of persons who had continuously
been in the employ of the city for six
months before the charter was adopted
one of which employees Young claims to
be. He also says the police commission
power of appointment has been taken
away.
Young declares that Williams is now oc-
cupying an office to which he himself
is entitled and asks the alleged usurpeI
be ordered to surrender the post to him
and that the police commission be COM
PEELED to make appointments in the police
department hereafter.

SAYS SHE MADE HIM WISH
FOR SINGLE BLESSEDNESS
cree Divorce Trial Nears End, and
Two Principals Spend Several
Days on Witness Stand Re-
peatIng Charges

The divorce trial of Mrs. Elizabeth bo-
rec against James Loree is nearing It's
end in Judge James department or the
superior court
THE trial has lasted over a week and
the testimony has spread over period
of nearly eight years, or little less than
half of the married life of the couple.
Mrs. Loree was on hand almost contln-
uously during three days of the court
sessions, while her husbands testimony
occupied almost as much time
Some of the charges made by the wife
are admitted by Loree, who filed cross
complaint against his wife. The more
serious charges are, however, denied; ana
while he admits he may have kissed other
members of his family before greeting
her. he says the woman has by her acts
caused him to wish again for single
blessedness.
If Loree's statements made yesterday
are true it would appear that certain let
ters or parts of letters purporting to have
been written to him or by him were either
never received or were changed ma
terially.
Loree says his wife has a violent tenn
per and was extravagant, spending his
money for unnecessary clothing and other
indulgencee. She became so quarrelsome,
he declares, that he gave her money to
return to her home in Michigan, feeling
it were better if they lived apart.
He made visit to his wife while in
the east and in refutation of her charges
that he inludged in numerous gayeties
says that he only engaged in innocent
games of cards.
Following their return to Los Angeles,
he said she abused him and struck him
in the ribs, calling him names and other
wise disturbing his slumbers.

I do not approve of breeding mare
every spring. Let them wean colt
and breed in the fall, every other year.
With such accommodations as l sug.
gest in any reasonable climate the fall
colt will have the best show, as he is
sucked during the winter, when the
mare is comparatively idle and usually
we'll fed; then he is weaned onto fresh
grass in the spring and grows right
on, while the spring colt is often
weaned onto dry pasture, and from
that into Indifferent winter quarters,
giving him heavy setback. The worst
objection to the fall colt is that the
mare is heavy during the heat and
hardship Of the crop season and where
much wheat is seeded they are apt to
catch it hardest at the wrong time.
The only remedy I know is in the sur
plus number mentioned, SO that the
fall mares can be spared at this time.

pound horse is hardly large enough
for an expresser, while the industrial
draft horse weighs 1000 pounds to
upward of a ton. A pair of extreme
weight drafters will haul load OF six
to eight tons and are more economical
of maintenance than two pairs OF
lighter horses that would be required
to perform the same work.
The general farmer wants a horse
of docile disposition, adapted to work
on the farm and easily marketed at
good price. With so many heavy
AGRICULTURAL machines on the farm the
draft horse can be utilized to better
advantage in general field work than
any other class.
. Draft horses are free sellers at good
prices from weanlings to mature
classes. Their superb qualities have
been acquired by centuries OF method
ical selection and breeding and they
have achieved a permanent place ID
the commerce of nations. Prices may
f1uctuate with the times, but good
draft horses will always return tne
farmer a reasonable profit on the COST
of production.

in mentioned of raising colts from farm

which I have had valuable experience,
should like to express my views if
you have space for them.
1t has been my fortune to spend
most of my life in sections noted for
the production of good horses, and in
which practically all the colts were
reared from the mares that did all the
farm work. I have also been in sec
lions where this idea was not preva-

good farmers waste a large portion OF
their grain and hay each year feeding

carry on their work. First, I would
say that to carry out this plan sue

and in the safe, well-fenced lot, with
no hogs or cattle to endanger them,
they are safer and better off. Then the
mares are far easier kept up not to
have a colt tagging at them all the
time, and while I do not wish to put
