STAND LOYALTY
BY ALEXANDER
DEMOCRATIC AND LINCOLN
ROOSEVELT LEAGUE ACT
Candidates Absolutely Clean Record
In the Past Gives Assurance of
Honest and Efficient Ad-
ministraton

The Democratic league and the Lin
coln-R Roosevelt Republican league have
both indorsed the selection of George
Alexander Resolutions adopted by
both organizations pledge their support
to Mr.. Alexander and urge his election.
The resolution of the Democratic
league, as attested by Secretary M. G..
Yoakum, is as follows:
Whereas, On January 16, 1909, the
Democratic league pledged itself to
cooperate with any body of citizens
who would initiate a movement for the
recall of Mayor A. G. Harper; and
Whereas, The Municipal league has
instituted the recall of Mayor A. c.
Harper and has nominated George AL
exander as it's candidate;
Therefore, be 1t resolved, That the
Democratic league indorses the candi-
dacy of Hon. George Alexander and
pledges its support and cooperation IN
the recall movement"
The executive committee of the Lin
coln-R Roosevelt Republican league in
dorsed the candidacy of George Alex
ander for mayor of Los Angeles by the
adoption of the following resolution:
\"Whereas, At the recall election to be
held March 26 George Alexander Will
be candidate for mayor. and
Whereas, Mr.. Alexander, through a
long period of public service has had
an absolutely clean record and proved
a true friend of all the people, and, In
the opinion of this committee, will give
the citizens of Los Angeles honest and
efficient administra ton of the office of
mayor, now therefore, be it
Resolved, BY the executive commit
tee of the Lincoln Roosevelt Republican
league of Los Angeles county that we
do heartily approve of the candidacy
of Mr.. Alexander and assure him of
our loyal support, and urge all friends
of good government to do all in their
power to bring about his election"

lutions were transmitted to recall cam

their expressed opinions, although their
names are prominent.
Men engaged in the printing busi-
ness who receive large slices of the
public printing or who have other
bonds of sympathy with members of
boards OF supervisors or city councils
may be very elusive and possibly have
to be dragged into an honest expression
of their opinions. Charges by such a
set of men that a clique of men with
unworthy purposes is trying to gain
control Of the city government are GER
tainly entitled to some weight in the
community. Just exactly how much
can well be left to the community.
Merit Consideration
"These things are all pertinent and
merit consideration when q statement
goes out over their names in which
they attack the Municipal league or
whatever organization is attempting to
break the power of the political ma
chine This reply of 100 business men
is worth careful attention at this time
for the care and consideration which
was evidently given to the subject by
each man who signed it, and the pains
taking investigation and familiarity
with the conditions before speaking
of them which is shown by such state
ments in the reply as the following, re-
appointed by Mayor Harper has been
charged with crime or malfeasance in
Office. His administration of the city S
affairs has been free from criminal
charge or corruption. In fact, we be-
lieve his administration of public af-
fairs has been honest and able and will
compare favorably with any of his pre-
decessors.'
Speaking of Mr.. Kern, we have the
following gem: Mr.. Kern is a ran of
ability, experience and honesty and
will make a valuable member of the
board of public works OF the mayor
il was said, His enemies-and no
strong man was ever elected to the
office of mayor without them--cauSed
him, his administration and every Of
fetal appointed by him, to be subject
ed to the most eXacting scrutiny of a
grand jury and its experts and not one
indictment was returned nor could be
found. when, as we'll known, indict-
ments are so easily obtained. None
could be based and returned upon the
actual facts
Leaving these business organiza-
tons which are brought forth like
mushrooms under the fertilizing hand
of Walter Parker, and passing to the
question of the grand jury report re-
ferred to in this reply of 100 business
men. it would seem at this time that
The question of Is vice protected in
Los Angeles?' should be followed by
the question, Why is the district at
torney?' 1t seems that private citi-
zen was able to secure proof and evil
dence of such a nature that the resig-
nation of Kern, the resignation of
Harper and state of chaos in the
police department was brought about.
If such results could be obtained by a
private citizen with private resources.
why could not district attorney,
backed by the power of the govern
ment, practically unlimited means and
a grand jury, most of whom were
eager to investigate conditions exist
ing in the municipal government, OBJ
tain some results for the people?"

NOTED CAPITALIST
OF COLORADO DIES
Leaves Estate Valued at $15,oo0,ooo.
Was Distinguished Soldier and
Prominent Railroad
Official

COLORADO SPRINGS, March 13.-
Gen. William ]. Palmer, founder of
Colorado Springs, died today at his
country seat. Glen Eyre, west of the
city. Death came as the result Of a
fall from a horse in October, 1906,
which caused fracture of the spine.
General Palmer has often been called
the foremost citizen of Colorado. He
leaves an estate valued at $15,000,000.
Gen, Palmer was distinguished as q
soldier in the civil war, but his great
est fame came as railroad builder.
Immediately after he had been mus
tered out of the service, in 1865, General
Palmer, at the request of John Edgar
Thompson, Thomas A. Scott and other
Pennsylvania railroad friends, was
elected secretary and treasurer of the
Kansas Pacific Railroad company.
1t was his connection with that road
which brought him into Colorado and
resulted in his long and conspicuous
Identification with the development OF
the resources of this state.
Besides General Palmer's connection
with the building of the Kansas Pacific
railroad to Denver, in 1S69-70, he con-
ceived and carried out several con-
meeting enterprises.
He remained president of the Denver
& Rio Grande system and its directing
personality until August, 1888, when he
resigned to give greater attention to
his railroad enterprises in Mexico, the
Mexican National railroad, but he con-
tinued to be president of the Rio
Grande Western road, extending from
Grand Junction to Salt Lake City, until
April, 1901, when he withdrew from
personal participation in it's affairs.
In connection with his inception and
construction of the Denver & Rio
NGrande railroad. General Palmer con-
ceived and founded upon a beautiful
site near the eastward base of Pike S
Peak the city of Colorado Springs. near
which, at the foot of the Rocky noun
tains, he had lived since athat city
came into existence in the Summer of
1871.

CHICAGO, March 13.-The
right to recall" the mayor,
aldermen, or any incumbent of
an elective municipal office has
been extended voters of Chi
cago through the medium of
the proposed new charter.
A resolution providing for a
system of "impeachments" Of
fered by Walter L. Fisher, has

the Los Angeles statute in
voked in the case of Mayor
Harper, makes it possible for
25 per cent of the constituents
of any alderman to vote to oust
him from office.
