SANTA MONICA HEARS
GREAT TALK BY RUSH
SHOWS HOW DISTRICT HAS
BEEN NEGLECTED
McLachlans Course in Congress Re-
viewed and Inside History of
Fight for Better Freight
Rates Given
lspecial n r,,- -ro-ol7 l

SANTA MO-!ICA, Oct. 19.-The Dem
ocatic candidate or congress in the
Seventh district, Jud r. Rush, ad-
dressed a large number of Santa Mon
leans here tonight. The meeting was
under the auspices of the local Demo-
cratic club, and j. c. Steele was IN
charge of the arrangements.
Mr.. Rush held his big audience IN
v-rapt attention for an hour or more
while he talked about the duties Oh
representative in congress and partlcu-
larly about what might have been dont
in the past by q representative Wlde
awake at all times to the requirements
of this portion of the country
While he made no personal attacks
on the present member of congress
from the Seventh district, he criticised
his lack of action on any important
matter affecting the welfare OF the
district during all the years he has
represented the people of Los Angeles
county. He defied any one to point 10
any important piece of legislation pro-
posed or carried out by the present
congressman, and said that it was well
known that at those times when he
might have been useful to his constitu-
ents he was absent from Washington
on his own private business, and that
those who were entitled to his services
were unable even to discover his where
aboutS.
The speaker brought out some of the
inside history of the San Pedro harbor
development, and the fight for better
freight rates to the east on California
products, especially on fruits. He
showed that in these matters the con-
gresham who is now presumed to be
at work for the people of Southern
California has never taken any active
part, but, instead, has shown most
remarkable apathy toward those things
which would advance the prosperity of
Southern California.
Mr.. Rush also promised the voters
that if he should be elected, which he
confidently expects to be- he would at
least vote not to retain Uncle Joe Cam
non in power in the house. which was
more than the Republican candidate
would promise.

IN POLITICAL CIRCLES

vice-smeared record of the admins
tration looks hopefully to the grand
jury now i'm session for action that
shall forever disrupt the alliance
that exists between the mayors
office and vice, that shall smash the
red lantern that hangs over the en-
trance to the city hall and teach
officials who extend protection to
the breakers of the law that there
Is 81 God In Israel.
Malice Is Charged
Mayor Harper, in his complaint, says
he is a man of family and large per-
sonal acquaintance and has borne a
reputation as an upright man. He de-
clares it to be his belief that Earl has
continually harbored and expressed
private and personal malice and hos
tility toward him, and that on account
of the publications in the Express he
has been damaged to the extent OF
100000
The suit against City Prosecutor
Woolwine is based on an article cred
tied to that official and appearing in q
Los Angeles morning paper of Septem-
ber 81 which had for its purpose, ac-
cording to the mayor, the injuring ol
his good name and reputation and
bringing into hatred, contempt and
oblouuy, both as a private citizen anc
an official of the city. The statements
in the article referred to, he declares
are defamatory and false.
The article of which the mayor Says
Woolwine is the author is as follows:
| haven't a grand jury behind my
back or a corps of detectives. L
wish to God | had both. I'd make
things in this town hum and there
would be a chance to elect some
new officials. Wen | took this
office l looked Mr.. Hewitt, my su-
perior, squarely in the eye and
asked him if he wanted me to en-
force the laws. He said he did. l
have taken him at his word, but at
every point the mayor of this city,
the police commissioners and hum
dreds of men of influence and many
whose standing in the community is
such that you would be surprised at
their interference, have attempted
to balk me.
In the matter of the "red light
district" the mayor squarely said he
would not allow it to be touched.
The conditions were terrible. Men
close to the highest city officials
were rapidly erecting buildings to
be occupied as houses of prostitu-
tion at enormous rentals, and these
dens overshadowed the homes of
poor people who could not afford to
move out of the district. And all
the time the mayor and the police
were providing protection.

NORTH PASADENANS HOLD
FIRST MEETING OF CLUB
Plant and Yaeger Bring Cheers at
References to Bryan-Rush and
Schwamm in Demand
There

Democrats in the north part of Pas
adena held a rousing meeting last
evening at which Richmond Plant and
f. S. Ydeger delivered speeches.
The meeting was held in the rooms
of the newly formed North Pasadena
Bryan and Kern club, and was the
first public assembly held by the or
ganization. President A. j. Toolen
presided.
The club has now membership of
about 100 but many outsiders were
present, entirely filing the rooms OF
the club.
Mr.. Plant delivered a forceful
speech, dealing largely with national
issues. At his mention of Bryan as
the next president the audience rocked
the building with applause.
Mr.. Yaeger made some pertinent al
lusions to the congressional represen-
tative of this district, and the temper
of the audience showed that Jud Rush
is very popular here.
II is hoped that Anthony Schvamm
candidate for supervisor in the dis
trict which includes North Pasadena,
will be present at the next meeting.

TO SEND NEGRO SPEAKERS
TO DIFFERENT PLACES
American-Negro Political League is
Requested to Furnish Orators
and Asks for Funds to
Pay Cost

An appeal for funds to carry on the
campaign among the negroes has just
been made. The American Negro Poll
tical league is in receipt of many re-
quests from negro communities for col
ored speakers to address them on the
issues involved in this campaign.
The league has complied with these
requests in some instances, but for
| lack of funds to pay transportation of
speakers it has been unable to send
all speakers requested.
If in the next three weeks speakers
can reach the colored voters many
votes will be won for the Democratic
ticket, says President j. L. Edmonds
of Sawtelle, and the bulk of the col
ored vote cast against Perkins and Nc
Lachlan.
The executive committee decided to
appeal to all Democrats for voluntary
contributions to aid in politically
emancipating the negro.
Send all contributions to G. Walter
Smell, treasurer, $50 Hawthorn street,
Los Angeles.
The officers are, besides j. L. Ed
monds, president, and Treasurer Smell,
Vice President o. Hudson. Santa Mon
lea, and Secretary T. j. Anderson of
Los Angeles.

GRAND JURY CONTINUES
COUNTY INVESTIGATION

The grand jury was in session four
hours yesterday, the forenoon session
being, it is believed, devoted to a con-
sideration of county affairs. Deputy
District Attorney John North again
appeared before the body and was
accompanied by stenographer, indi-
eating that the jury is now getting
down to business of a material nature.
In the afternoon District Attorney
Fredericks was in the grand jury room
almost two hours. None of the jury
men or Fredericks would say anything
regarding what transpired. but it is
believed the jury has again taken up
the matter of the graft charges of
Thomas L. Woolwine.
The grand jury will meet again this
morning at 10 o'clock.

GIPsIES ARE VEAL THY
TELLERS Of FORTUNES

Real gipsies and real tellers of for,
tune compose the band of Servians who
arrived on the Moana from Australia
Tuesday evening. They will be here
only for a short time, as they are book
ed to leave shortly for San Francisco.
They are money makers and in Aus

Gently visited, they picked up lots of
money and are said to have $4,000 gold
with them. They are every ready to
make a penny and will sean palms and
tell wonderful life histories, and al.
ready feminine curiosity in Honolulu
IS aroused. The gypsy women are odd
looking persons. Their hair is worn in
three plaits, as a general thing. They
wear spangled bodices, their arms are
encircled by dozens of bracelets, their
skirts are short, and at a distance are
picturesque Romantics. Closer inspec
ton reveals too much terra frma.
