COUNTY SALARY ACT
IS DECLARED VALID
COURT OF APPEALS MAKES
DECISION
Various Deputies VIII Receive Pay
and Officers Will Be Reimbursed
for Money Paid Out
of Pockets
Especial to The Herald. ]

SANTA ANA, Oct. 26.-The act of the
appellate court in declaring the Orange
county salary act passed at the ses-
sion of the last Legislature is valid and
in force since the act went in force
March %, brings satisfaction to those
of the courthouse officials who Joined
together in making the test case, after
having shown their belief in the con-
stitutionality of the act by appoint
ing their deputies a few months ago,
and paying them out of their own pock-
cts when the auditor refused to honor
the test warrant issued at that time.
The decision of the appellate court
was received here this morning in a
notice sent to Williams and Rutan, at
torneys for the courthouse officials test
ing the law. The notice read as fol-
lows:
Los Angeles, Cal, Oct. %, 1909
"Title of cause-NewmaD VS.. Les
ter, auditor.
Ordered that a writ of mandate
issue in accordance with the prayer
of the petition"
III. C. LILLE, Deputy"
The test case pust decided was the
result of the contention of the district
attorney that the raises were virtually
in the salaries of the principals and
therefore at variance with the consti-
tuition. On this contention of the dis
trict attorney the county auditor re-
fused to pay the waErant presented to
him by w. r. Newman, a deputy in
Assessor Scott's office, in test of this
point, thus becoming the plaintiff.
Judge Wilbur of Los Angeles dec,1-
ed adversely to Newman and the case
went into the appellate court with the
result of yesterdays decision in '7vor
of the plaintiff, Newman. 1t is not
likely that the defendent, County Audi
tor Leslie, will take the case to the
supreme court.
A curious result of the last decision
is that the amount of the turned-down
warrants issued for pay to the as
sistance of County Auditor Lester and
which he made good to his assistants
out of his own pocket, will now be
paid back to him, although the war
rants were drawn under the county
salary act

MUSIC STUDY CLUB SOON
WILL BE RE0RGANIZED
Officers to Be Elected and General Pro-
gram Agreed upon-Prof. Slower
to Lecture Friday Afternoon

MONROVIA, Oct. 26.-What last sea-
son proved to be the leading musical
organization of Monrovia will be re-
organized Wednesday afternoon at a
meeting to be held in the high school
auditorium. The Music Study club
boasted an enrolment of almost a
hundred members during the past
school year. It is believed that an even
larger number of persons will be en-
rolled when the seasons program is
made public. Prof. f. E. Knepper of
the high school has issued a circular
letter announcing the annual meeting
for the purpose of forming a general
program and electing officers for the
ensuing year.
Friday afternoon the first musicale of
the organization will be held in the
auditorium. The services of Prof. Ed
ward R. Slower Of the Orton Classical
school of Pasadena have been secured.
Prof. Slower will lecture while Miss
Aileen Northup will render several vio-
lin selections. The high school girls
double quartet will contribute also sew
eral selections. All interested are urged
to be present at both meetings. In
view of the extremely low dues and the
variety of talent which will be heard
during the winter season, the educa-
tional value Of the course can scarcely
be overestimated.

CONSIDER NEW PLANS FOR
STRAND WALL AND WALK
Work viii Be Done Under Local ln-
proVement Act, Instead of
Vrocman Law

LONG BEACH, Oct. 26.-The di-
rectors of the West Beach Improve
ment association met last night with
members of the board of public works
and local contractors, to consider new
plans for the construction of the pro-
posed walk and wall along the strand
from Magnolia avenue west to the
harbor jetty. They decided to aban-
don the old plans which were for do
ing the work under the Vrooman, ten
year bond act, and have the walk
built under the local improvement act
of 1901.
That act provides for both the con-
crete work and the lighting, the lat
ter being a consideration which made
contractors afraid of the contract be-
fore, for fear they would not get their
money, the Vrooman act not provid-
ing for lighting work being put in. 1t
is proposed to build the bulkhead in
one solid piece instead of in sections,
as proposed before, when it was
planned to build the concrete sections
in forms on the sand and then set
them in place. The wall will be 1000
feet long.
The residents of the Improvement
district will vote on the matter as to
when the payment of the cost shall
be made. 1t may be distributed over a
period of ten years or paid sooner.

TO FOSTER MERGER
WITH LOS ANGELES
CONSOLIDATION COMMITTEE
HOLDS MEETING
Since Annexation of Intervening Ter
rtory Sentiment for Union with
Angel City Has Received
Increased Impetus
Especial to The Herald ]

HOLLYWOOD, Oct. 26.-The commit
tee which was appointed for the pur-
pose Of carrying on the campaign for
the consolidation of Hollywood and
Los Angeles met for the first time this
afternoon at o'clock and made it's
plans. The committee consists of e.
c. Hampton, chairman; Mayor George
II. Dunlop, A. z. Taft, Philo j. Bev-
eridge and Judge A. E. Merrill.
Since the annexation of the terri
tory between this city and Los An
geles to the city, the limits of Holly
wood and Los Angeles are contiguous
and consolidation is made possible.
The sentiment for consolidation has
always been strong in this city, but
not until the boundary lines touched
was it possible to consolidate.
The committee will consult with the
officials of Los Angeles looking toward
consolidation, and will also put the
matter of annexation up to the resi-
dents of the territory joining Holly
wood on the west and East Holly
wood for school purposes. The school
trustees met this evening to make
plans for the calling of a special bond
election for the erection of another
grammar school which will be con-
tracted for before the election for
consolidation is held. The contract
for. the erection of the new polytech-
mic high school for the Hollywood
Union High School district will be let
in a short time also.
Hollywood, the ''City of Beautiful
Homes" has the reputation of being
the most beautiful of the suburbs of
Los Angeles. At present it has a
population of 5000 and an assessed
property valuation of $5,6OO,OO0. Should
the territory west of the city and
East Hollywood be annexed, the popu-
lation of the city will be about 10000
and the property valuation will be
about $1OO0O,000.
Practically all of the streets of the
city have been improved and the city
lis one of the best kept in Southern
California. There are between forty
five and fifty miles of improved streets
in the city, which have cost the resi-
dents about $1,00O,0 900 within the past
six years.
