There must be something radically
wrong with an administrator the head

was presented in Los Angeles recently
can receive the support and sanction
of so many of the voters.-Long Beach

Record furnished

The facts of the case, save some of
those relating, to the causes of Mr..
Harper's sudden resignation, are gen.
orally known. Briefly stated, he was
charged with allowing the town to run
"wide open"-with being in collision
with the classes which make money
out of vice. Without dwelling upon
this branch of the subject, it can be
said that many of the former mayors
friends while not conceding him to be
as black as painted. will hardly claim
that his record is untarnished.-San

refused to abandon him or his cause,

lofty impulse The delusion has been
great; the disappointment keen and

Harper's Officers

Two years ago, when Harper took
the mayors chair, he had as fine a
reputation as a business man as any
man in town. His character was ire
proachable. He was known particu-
larly as family man. and his home
life was referred to as q model OF
purity. He himself says that he was
worth 100000 when he went into office,
and that he lays down his authority

in reputation. Very few persons have
any definite idea of what Harper's Of

may have been.-Pasadena News.

Echoes of the Recall


What the public press has been able
to do has been recently exemplified In
the city of Los Angeles, when two
namely the Express ana
The Herald, began to investigate the
doings of Mayor Harper, who was
elected mayor over two years ago. and
as time developed. the investigations
showed enough ground for those two
dailies to inaugurate q movement TO
recall the mayor, according to the new
charter, and call for another election.
At the beginning Mayor Harper and
his friends sneered at the idea, and
made sport of the thought that such n
thing could be done; but the deter
of the said papers multiplied
as time went by, until great public
meeting was called, committees were
duly appointed and petitions circulate
ed to obtain the required number Of
signers, something like 1000 being the
requirement, and in a surprisingly
short time over 10000 names were Sc
cured.
The mayor then thought 1t was really
serious, and the battle went on in
earnest until yesterday, when Mayor
Harper submitted to the inevitable and
rendered his resignation, evidently be-
cause he could see his overwhelming
defeat.-E Paso (Texas) News.

to limit the game to seven innings.
The lean players were able to play
several innings, but all the work re-
quired of the thicker brother Elks
was to play one inning and take a
turn at bat. Rivers began the game
for the Fat team. while Richard
Clements, past exalted ruler, twirled
the first inning for the Leans and
then returned in favor of Iulus
White. As the game was played for
the benefit of the Home of the
Friendless a large crowd, including
a representation of women, was pres
ent to see the contest.
