Yerington Tenders Aid

Though Yerington is not on the rail-
road yet, her people are as ready and
willing to aid their neighbors in distress
as those better situated to collect and
send help. Acting for us at the Wa
ouska end of the telephone was big
hearted Joe Holland, and he was COM
municating with Mr.. Gallagher and
others here. A large amount of food
and supplies was pledged and Mr.. Hol-
land telegraphed the Rawhide com
mittee to that effect, and received the
following reply:
''Rawhide, New,
Joe Holland, Yerington, via Wabuska:
Rawhide sends hearty thanks to you
and the citizens of Yerington for their
generous offer of assistance, but are
glad to advise that none will be neces-
sary. All well supplied and working
shoulder to shoulder for greater and
better Rawhide.

All of the details of the report Of
the army district engineers for the
Southern California coast have beer
concluded and Capt. Amos A. Fries Is
ready to send the document to wash
ington. 1t covers the fiscal year ended
Nearly 100000 cubic yards of sand
shells earth and debris have been
moved out of the inner harbor at San
Pedro in the fiscal year.
This material was dumped through
a 2O-inch pipe by the government

form artificial land.
Most of the stuff went to the relay
pumping plant of the Pacific Wharf
and Storage company, there to be dis
tributed behind the stone bulkhead of
the Salt Lake system.
Other material went to the Salt
Lake systems holdings east of Ter
minal island.
Other amounts went to the South

the National Lumber company's hold
ings on the west side of Terminal

The cost of dredging and moving
this material was only $71,292, this
including office cost supplies. etc.

FELLOWSHIP ENTERS
FREE SPEECH FIGHT
Prominent Religious Organization Pc
titlons Police Commission for
Justice - CurtaiIment of
Rights Condemned

Los Angeles Fellowship, liberal re-
ligious organization with a large mem
bership of prominent men and women,
headed by Rev Benjamin Fay Mills,
as a result of the report of It's special
committee appointed to investigate the
imprisonment of free-speeeh crusaders
and the conditions in the city jail, yes
terday passed resolutions which were
presented as a. petition to the police
commission, declaring itself heartily in
favor of free speech. condemning the
ordinance against it and urging that
the city council revoke the unconstitu-
tienal law under which it is necessary
for a citizen of Los Angeles to procure
a permit from the police commissioners
before he can speak in public on any
Los Angeles street-which permits arbl-
trarily have been denied to the So
cialists, they say.
The resolutions passed by the Los
Angeles Fellowship are as follows:
Whereas, Our city authorities have
seen fit to refuse permits to certain or
our citizens who desired to publicly dis
cuss certain questions of moral and
political import on the streets, and
Whereas, Certain of our citizens
acting in pursuance of what they be-
lieved were their inalienable rights as
American citizens, and insisting on theiI
rights to peaceably and in an orderly
manner agitate in favor of juster
economic conditions, have been ar
rested and cast into our four city jail
and subjected to all the indignitles
visited upon common criminals; there
fore be it
Resolved, That the Los Angeles Eel
lowship disclaiming any necessary In
dorsement of the political views or
methods of the citizens thus incar-
cerated or committing ourselves to the
Socialist party propaganda, first, desire
to emphatically declare ourselves In
favor of the freest of free speech; sec
ond, to condemn every movement from
whatever source that seeks to limit III
any way the freest, fullest discussion
in street or park or hall, of the i'm
portant political, religious and socio-
logical questions now pressing for solu-
ton, and, third, to express the hope
that our city authorities may recognize
the great mistake and danger to Ameri-
can institutions of trying to suppress
free discussion and may Immediately
undo the wrong done to our fellow citl-
zens. Be it also
"Resolved, That a committee OF
seven be appointed to wait upon the
police commission, and without Inn
pugning the motives of anyone con-
cerned courteously and earnestly urge
that permits be granted to the Socialist
speakers and all others who desire ia
discuss these questions peacably on
the streets"
