George Alexander has given the peo-
pie a fair and honest administration OF
civic affairs, and therefore l am in
favor of retaining him in his present
position" says stephen Dove, secre-
tary Of the printing pressmen's union
He has placed Los Angeles in a COM
manding position among the cities or
the country that will be a" example
to those municipalities now in the
grasp of special and corrupt influences.
"The mayor is opposed by the press
that is subserVient to those seeking spe-
cial privileges, and that alone should
arouse the people to action. Only about
one-fourth of the population has the
right of suffrage, but the rights OF
others have been taken into considera-
ton. and the laws that are for the pro-
lection of the homes are being en-
forced. The children now who are to
become citizens later will appreciate
what the good government means when
they assume the duties of citizenship.
"The sentiment among the voters
know in the printing crafts is for
George Alexander and good govern
ment. George Alexander is fair ana
lust in his administration of the laws.
He has appointed on his commissions
men active in labor's ranks
Il shall vote for George Alexander
and the Good Government candidates.

says:
What a beautiful city we have here
and how immense its prospects are for
the future. if the patriotic citizens will
be on their guard in electing honest
and capable men to Ian the government
on a strict business basis. our interests
will be guarded and all our industries
will prosper if our city officers are
capable and willing TO do their fun
duty. seeing that individuals and com
panies get their lawful protection.
Then our city will be a beautiful busl-

George A. Fisher, a carpenter and
builder, of 1880 Santee street makes
this strong argument for the election
of Alexander:
"San Pedro and Wilmington must be
the busiest places in Los Angeles in
five years, or the city will have ceased
its rapid growth. These harbors must
be free from Southern Pacific control
or they will never develop. No Walter
Parker mayors or councilmen for me,
to turn over the control of the harbor.
I am for George Alexander for mayor.

II. G. Grimwood, a master brick
layer of 1015 Sunset boulevard, says:
"Tho Workingmen of Los Angeles are
vitally interested in the coming cleo

harbor means a great opportunity for
labor, and it is vital to the interests
Of the city of Los Angeles that the
harbor be free from Southern Pacific

POISONING GROUND SOUR
RELS AND GOPHERS

Interesting results have just been
announced by the forest service as a
result of the campaign conducted in
southern California by Stanley f..
Piper, expert of the biological survey
of the department of agriculture to
e~xterminate ground squirrels and
gophers.
Extensive experiments were tried
to determine the best means of killing
off these destructive little animals, and
it was found that most effective results
were obtained by using poisoned green
or ripening barley heads. The squir-
rels are exceedingly fond of this green
heritage, and eagerly ate the poisoned
food placed along their
Tests were also made with oats, wheat,
barley, r~aisins, prunes. dried apples
and corn, but these did not prove so
successful.
While green barley proved most sue
~cessful for poisoning ground SPUR
rels, yet the difficulty of procuring q
sufficient supply in all localities led to
dried barley grain being tried. The
grain was treated with s%trychnine sui
phate, saceharine and eggs, and al
though this combination proved very
destructive to the squirrels, it had
practically no effect upon doves and
lOuaiI Tn fact q dol;haro4a oxxo--+
was made to poison these birds at their
watering places, but no bad effect re-
suited. The poisoned grain was also
used in fields grazed over by sheep
and produced no i'll effects whatever.
The experiments also proved that
gophers were partial to raisins and
dried apples, and these were success
fully used in the poison experiment. 1t
