THE LIGHT IS BREAKING

The dose which was dshed up b,
bosses Cox, Brown and Guilbert al
Columbus at the time of the Repub,
lican state convention has begun tc
sour upon the stomachs of the rank
land file of the Republicans. A few
belches have already been heard. ant
II IS probable that before election DAY
rolls around there will be a number
of cases of genuine emesis.
The fact of the matter Is that the
great majority of the Republicans
have just awakened to what has hap.
lpcned. AS stated before in these
columns, the bosses kept the atten.
! ton of the delegates in the convention
Iriveted upon Secretary Taft. They
were made to believe that the indorse-
ment of Taft was the all important
work of the convention and while this
thought was uppermost in their minds
and while they were not looking. the
bosses slipped in and named the tick
Jet, from top to bottom, with the ex-
ception of lieutenant governor and
this honor was handed to Congress-
man Burton, very much as a sugar
teat is given to crying baby The
Ienthusasm for Taft began to wear
of before the convention had ad-
journed. The delegates began to see
things when they were balloting for
State treasurer and tried to break
the slate. Again, when the nOmina-
ton was to be made for attorney
general, there was an attempt to
break the slate and land Smith Ben
nett in the place, but it was found
that the slate was too strong to be
broken. The bosses had fixed their
fences too well to have them broken
down and the thing went through
Mutterings were heard when the dele
gates were leaving the convention hall
and on the trains to their homes a
jubilant set of men could not be
found They seemed to realize that
something was going To happen, and
it has begun happening.
Among the very first newspapers to
awaken to a realization of what the
convention at Columbus really did,
Us the Toledo Blade. That rock
ribbed old Republican paper which
has stood by the party through thick
and thin, and whose influence has
been widely felt in many campaign
has seen the handwriting on the wall
and, in the spirit of justice and fair

Thompson is closely allied with Cox,
Brown and Guilbert.
The salary of the secretary of
state is $500 la year. He appoints
fifteen office assistants This year
the department will pay in salaries
$3i,I00.
"The tremendous influence of the
ceretary of state, however, lies in
the fact that he is the chief super
visor of elections-the head of the
election machinery of the state, and
appoints the four members of the
election board in each of the SS
counties The brigade of election
board members number 1862 men, not
including their clerks and assistants
and the great army of registrars,
judges and clerks of elections ap-
pointed annually for special duty.

HAS OPTION ON LOTS
FOR ENGINE HOUSE
FIRE COMMISSION PREPARES
FOR EXPANSION
Matter Referred to Chief Lips, Who
Is Expected to Report Favor
ably on Acceptance of
Offer Made

The>fire commission yesterday took
step in anticipation of the expansion
of the fire department, which probably
will become an established city policy.
An offer of a free option on lot at
Figueroa and Slauson avenue will be
accepted, so that the purchase may be
made with money from the next levy
and a site secured which will be avail
able for an engine house when the lat
ter is needed in that neighborhood.
The Figueroa-N ormandie Improve
ment association reported to the coun-
Gil that the sum of $1,000 asked by the
agents was a reasonable one, and the
council referred the proposition. The
fire commission decided that it would
be a good plan to exercise the privilege
of taking a free option on the lots, and
Chief Lips, to whom the matter was
referred in the regular routine, will re-
port accordingly.
Charles G. Spencer and Ed Nusser
were dismissed from the department,
and Frank A. Ball and A. H. Hatfield
were appointed as hosemen, on recon-
mendation of the chief. The claim of
C. F. Blanchard for pay during twenty
one days which he lost because he was
kicked by a horse was referred to the
relief association for investigation. 1t
carried an adverse report from the bat
talon chief.

we will get through. When we do the

on the two lower drifts, each of which
is in the neighborhood of seven feet in

ALL THE UNITED STATES
GET CALIFORNIA CELERY
Several Carloads of SuccuIent Vege.
table Are Being Shipped to
Various Parts of the
Country

Persons in various parts of the United
States already have begun to eat the
winter crop of Southern California eel
cry, as two or three carloads a day
are being shipped from the Orange
county celery fields. During Novem-
Der the Pacific Fruit Express company
expects TO handle 100 cars.
Notwithstanding the acreage this
year is less by 1000 acres, the total
number of cars shipped from the south
ern part of the state will be as great
as that of last season.
Although little celery was raised in
the north this year, Orange county
alone will yield nearly 1000 cars, as
much as was shipped last year both
from the northern district, on the Sac
ramento river. and from southern fields.
In addition to the 100 cars to be shipped
this month it has been estimated by
A. M. Mortensen, southwestern man
ager for the Pacific Fruit Express COM
pany, that 1900 cars will be sent out
from the first of December to the last
of February
One principal reason for the excel
lent condition of the crop this year is
the plants have been sprayed, the lack
of which caused destruction by blight
of nearly 1000 acres last year.
