means clear to me that any judge juror, French,
American Patagonian, is competent to ascer-

his competence IS basic assumption OF the law

THEY DON'T LOVE LOS ANGELES

The question of apportionment of congressional
districts after next years still troubles the
south and apparently the outlying counties are
pursued by fear that they may be tackled on to the
Los Angeles kite Discussing suggestion of the
Santa Barbara Press that San Diego, Riverside,
Imperial, San Bernardno and Orange be joined in
one district with part of Los Angeles the San
Diego Union says:
1t ought to be needless to suggest that any
scheme by which, suggested, portion OF Los
Angeles county would be joined with San Diego
and other southern counties should be
resisted to the bitter end. Such arrangement
would be little less than political crime. The
interests of these counties not the interests
of Los Angeles county. But this sort of
deal to be made Los Angeles would presumably
the congressman and dominate the dis
trict. Such arrangement would be simply in
tolerable.
Santa Barbara is equally unwilling to tie up
with Los Angeles any part thereof, and the
Press remarks:
Santa Barbara is concerned, it would be better
be cassed with such counties as the above than
to under the overpowering influence of
large county like Los Angeles
They do not love Los Angeles among the neigh
bors because that county not only gets both feet
in the trough but climbs into it and lies down.

Diego to be Joined to Los Angeles, or part of
