Very Rev. James w. Gillispie, pas

performed his first active work as
dean when he presided over the
semi-annual conference of the Keokuk
deanery which convened at the parish
house this afternoon.
But 1t was not perfect stranger

throughout the deanery, for Father
Gillispie is known quite we'll through
out the diocese. The. title of dean
was bestowed upon him but a few
weeks ago and this is the first con.
ference.
The conference will result in little
other than giving the priests an OPP
portunity of getting better acquainted
with the deanery's new head. How
ever, some time will be spent in re-
viewing the diocesan statutes. Lat
er 1t is expected a program will be
arranged for the May conference.

BELIEVES PUBLIC OFFICE
is TRULY PUBLIC TRUST
sy Or. Ebert Wing

There are many excellent reasons FOR
the reelection of Mayor Alexander, and
not least among them the fact that he
already has made good.
The interests of a modren city, such
as Los Angeles, demand as its chiet
executive officer a man who is able,
fearless, fair-minded and honest. When
elected mayor, Mr.. Alexander already
had won an enviable reputation along
these lines and his conduct in his
present office has increased it. He
believes that a public office is public
trust, and lives up to his belief. "A
mayor should be judged by his manage
ment of the fire and police departments,
his appointments, his Vetoes and his
friends.
Mr. Alexander's management of the
fire department is unchallenged. AS
mayor it is his sworn duty to execute
the laws of the city and he has striven
to do this without fear or favor. His
appointments have been excellent, and
dictated by consideration of the in
terests of the city, and not his own
interest. They clearly show that the
great interests of the city in the Owens
river aqueduct are safe in his hands.
The vetoes which he has sent to the
council show alert watchfulness and
care for the welfare of the city. Po-
litically, one class of citizens may be
said to be better than another only
in so far as it's members obey the
laws and work earnestly and in dis
interested way for the interests of the
city. If a mayor may be known, as an
ordinary man may, by his friends,
Mayor Alexander ranks high in Los
Angeles.
He has the Endorsement of the NUM-
cipal league, and the Good Govern
ment organization, and no candidate
for public office in this city can have
better credentials than those.
Los Angeles herald., 1909-11-07
STANDS AGAINST VICIOUS
AND FOR PUBLIC WELFARE
BY C. w. Chase

There are several reasons why George
Alexander should be reelected mayor
of this city. He has ''made good" He
is honest, capable, efficient, sensible,
courageous. always attending to the
public business. He stands for what
makes for good to the public, and is
against that which makes for the pub
lie evil. He has had much experience
in public affairs and is not subject to
the control of the corrupt machine, and
serves the people Instead of interes IS
having special privileges or desiring
them.
He has been tried as a supervisor and
found to be an excellent one, always
standing for the rights of the people
and against the ring politicians. He
has ably filled the office of mayor at
ceptionally satisfactory manner and
very trying and critical time in an ex-
so as to deserve the approval of all
citizens having the real welfare of Los
Angeles at heart. He has selected ex-
cellent men for his commissions and
made judicious appointments, putting
in important positions the best material
he could obtain therefor, and would
have secured ever better material had
the citizens he called upon done their
duty and served the public by becom-
ing officials under him.
About the only ostensible points
raised against him by his opponents
are that he wears chin whiskers and a
plug hat. 1t is not unlawful to wear
either.
