MANY CITIZENS EXPRESS REGRET
AT RESIGNATION OF WOOLWINE
Prosecutors Office Thronged with Sympa-
thizers Who Believe Official Should
Have Been Allowed to Continue
Investigation of Graft

which violations of the city ordinances
His position Vas anomalous. Under
him were men deputiZed sby the dis
trict attorney, but whom he could not
instruct in their duties. This condi-
ton, he believed, rendered 1t absolute
ly necessary for him to resign.
Who will take his place as city
prosecutor will not be known until
the return of City Attorney Leslie r.
Hewitt now in Washington. Mr..
Hewitt will reach Los Angeles in two
or three days. According to q tele-
gram received from him Friday by Mr..
Woolwine, before his resignation was
rendered. the city attorney fully appre-
ciates the position in which his as
sistant has been placed.
The telegram is dated Washington
October %, and is as follows:
Thomas L. Woolwine, city attorney,
Los Angeles: Regret not having con-
ference with you regarding duties of
your assistants in the pending Fred
ericks controversy and grand jury in
vestigation. believe his revocation
of your authority a serious mistake,
but my Judgment is that other deputies
should continue to prosecute state law
misdemeanors unless Fredericks re-
vokes their authority and until he does.
This situation is anomalous, but a
contrary course would be prejudicial to
the public interest by giving the po-
lice an excuse for laxity, also by de-
laying prosecutions and by decreasing
fines resulting in loss of revenue, the
responsibility for which would be laid
to us unnecessarily on the ground of
insufficient prosecutors. You are there
fore advised that the other assistants
should continue to prosecute and be
ready and willing to prosecute as dep
uty district attorneys. You will there
fore please instruct them accordingly"
1t was because he did not have this
power to instruct his assistants that
Mr. Woolwine resigned, he says. He
offers no criticism of Mr.. Hewitt in
ordering him to so instruct these as
sistants.

BRYAN TO WIN
BY LANDSLIDE
DECLARES MACK
REPORTS INDICATE UNEX-
PECTED PLURALITY
NEW YORK SURE; ILLINOIS ONLY
DOUBTFUL STATE
National Chairman Bases Sensational
Prediction on Conservative Esti-
mates Received from Many
Reliable Sources
TBy Associated Press.1

M EW YORK, Oct. 24.-National
Y Chairman Mack authorized o
4 statement today in which he
claimed the election of w. j. Bryan by
a landslide.
He announced his reports showed
that Mr.. Bryan would receive at least
301 electoral votes, or fifty-nine more
than is necessary for a choice.
Mr.. Mack's forecast of the election
follows:
1.-THE rumblings and thunder of the
Bryan landslide in the west are al
ready heard in the eastern states, and
today can confidently predict the
election of Mr.. Bryan, for the inevita-
BILE landslide in the west will extend
to the shores of the Atlantic.
1T means the Democratic national
ticket will carry every doubtful state
in this section, and in roc.--ribbed Re-
publican districts the majority of that
party in recent years will be reduced
to a minimum.
'Basil4g my forecast on the most
conservative lines, i'll view of the OPP
timistic reports / have received from
all sections of the country, 1 figure
that Mr.. Bryan will have at least 3O1
electoral votes, or fifty-nine more than
is necessary for choice. This COM
Portable majority will be increased
rather than decreased when the vote
is counted.
Sure of Some Big Ones
"In addition to the 166 votes of the
solid south, and in this 1 include
Maryland, / am confident that Mr..
Bryan will carry New York, New
Jersey, Connecticut, Idaho, Montana,
Colorado, Nebraska, Nevada, Indiana,
Ohio, Delaware, Kansas and South
Dakota-a total of 301 votes.
"All over the country there is a
change of from 20 to so per cent from
the Roosevelt vote of 1904 to MI.
Bryan.
The result is no longer in doubt in
New York. The thirty-nine votes of
the state are assured for Mr.. Bryan.
illinois is doubtful with the chances
in favor of Mr.. Taft, but If he wins it
will be by a greatly reduced plurality.
Pacific Coast for Bryan
"The Pacific coast states all show a
Bryan trend and a disgust with the
extravagant destructive policies of
Mr.. Roosevelt. In each state, particu-
larly Oregon, state issues are an inn
portant factor.
1.-The mountain states, from informa-
tion L have received within forty-eight
hours, will, 1 am confident, be counted
in the Democratic column
Mr.. Mack also said today that he un-
derstood the Republican organization
had accumulated $3,000,000. which
would be used in several of the de-
batable states, but" said he, "they
cannot. defeat us with $4,000, 000.''
Mr.. Mack said: 1.-THE action of
President Roosevelt in sending out his
e. tire cabinet on the stump shows the
president is frightened to death. If
they don't put ropes on the president.
or nail him down. he will be out on the
stump, too. If Roosevelt goes on the
stump the people will know that Bryan
will be elected"

4 LARGE number of persons called
IN on City Prosecutor Thomas Lee
IA Woolwine yesterday, both at the
police station and his private office,
expressing regret on account or MS
resignation and the fact that ne was
not allowed to continue in charge OF
the investigation before the grand jury
into the alleged protection of vice.
Mr. Woolwine was appointed deputy
CITY attorney q little more than a year
and half ago. He was at the city
hall in this capacity for almost year
and during that time supervised every
contract entered into by the city, in
addition to trying important cases in
volving the opening of streets. AS a
result of his labors in this connection
he was considered we'll qualified to pre-
pare the present traffic ordinance,
which has done much to simplify the
handling of street traffic in Los An
geles.
SIX months ago he was sent to the
police station to act as city prosecutor
and since that time many assert ma
terial Improvement in conditions
throughout the city has become mani
fest In this work he secured great
deal of Information which led him to
believe that vice was being protected
in Los Angeles. This information, 1t

a mass of evidence was secured of
sufficient import to be placed before
the grand jury and result in the re-
turn of indictments.
His desire to go before that body and
take charge of the investigation, how
ever, was frustrated by the action of
District Attorney Fredericks in taking
from him his power as a deputy.
The resignation of Mr.. Woolwine
from his office as city prosecuting at
torney was regarded as absolutely nee
essary by him. When the authority
vested in him as a deputy district at
torney was taken away by District At
torney Fredericks he remained practic-
ally spectator in his own Office, with
out power, except to try cases In

WhStever happens, never forsake a
friend When enemies gather, when
sickness falls upon the heart, when the
world is dark and cheerless, is the
time to try true friendship. They
who turn from the scenes of distress
betray their hypocrisy and prove that
interest only moves them. If you have
a friend who loves you. who has
studied your interest and happiness.
be sure to sustain him in adversely.
Let him feel that his love was not
thrown away Real fidelity may be
rare, but it exists in the heart. They
only deny its worth and power who
never, loved friend or labored to
make friend happy.
