EXECUTIVE BODY NAMED
TO WAGE RATE CONTEST

SAN BERNARDINO, Oct. 5.-To con-
tinue the fight against unjust discrim-
ination in the matter of freight rates
forced on the dealers of this city by
the three railroads entering San Ber-
nardino, a meeting of the original gen
eral committee appointed by the Mer-
chants association was held last night
at the Stewart hotel with the result
that an executive body composed of
George M. Cooley, James Russell, j. T.
Bollong, C. M. Grow, j. B. Gill, was
named to have entire jurisdiction of
the contest which it is proposed to
inaugurate, as a continuation Of the
protest made to the state railroad COM
mission in session here last month, in
the endeavor to secure rates that would
make it possible for local merchants
to compete with Los Angeles dealers
not only in the price of wares in this
city, but in the many tributary points
on the desert in this county.
1t is the intention to employ ex-
perts to compile data which are to thor
oughly demonstrate the unfair rates,
said in some instances, to be worse
than have been published. All phases
of the matter are to be taken up, and
to raise sufficient funds to carry the
contest through a system is now In
the course of preparation whereby the
expense will be met by the dealers af-
fected by the freight rates.

RIVALRY FOR OFFICE
OF HORTICULTURIST
VOTERS AROUSED OVER PLOT
OF "MACHlNE"
AIleqed That Chairman of Republican
County Central Committee Is
Slated for Fat Job-Fruit
Growers Will Protest
tsnecial to The Herald. ]


SANTA ANA, Oct 5.-The voters Oh
the county have been stirred up by
the rumor that the machine has
slated ]. w. Morrison of Orange,
chairman of the Republican county
central committee, for the position OF
county horticultural commissioner.
As a result of the rumor consid-
cradle delegation of fruit growers Will
visit the board of supervisors tomor-
row morning to protest against ms
appointment and to boost for h. W.
Camteld, the incumbent and also
candidate for reappointment'
The basis for the rumor OF MOTIF
sons scheduled appointment is not
known, but there seems little doubt
that Morrison is after the job. As he
is known to be very close TO both the
board of supervisors and to the state
horticultural examiners, his chances
appear altogether too fiattering for
the comfort of Camfield's friends.
The job pays Sc per day of actual
work. Morrison is a deputy state fish
commissioner. with salary of $1OO
a month. Rumor has it that some one
of the politically elect would fall heir
to this Job should Morrison resign it.
A petition for the appointment of
Camfeld as county horticultural com
missioner already bears the names of
ASS fruit growers.

WANT RIGHT TO APPOINT
GOOD ROADS COMMITTEE

SANTA ANA, Oct. 5.-Representing
the associated chambers of commerce
of Orange county, DR.. Dobson OF
Santa Ana, P. W. Eplen of Orange
and Dr. Richman of Fullerton went
before the board of supervisors this
afternoon and presented the request
of the associated chambers that the
board waive it's right to name the
members of the proposed good roads
commission and allow them to be Sc
lected by mass meetings or by some
other method to be decided on.
The board was informed that, owing
I'd a sentiment existing in the county
against the board of supervisors, the
people would resent the selection of
the commission by the board and vote
against the bonds.
The supervisors defended their
right and said that the associated
chambers of commerce did not consti-
tute a majority of the voters of the
county consequently mass meetings
called by them would not represent a
majority. After an animated discus
sion the matter was taken under ad-
visement by the board.

TWO LARGE MOTOR CARS WILL
BE PURCHASED
North Lincoln Avenue Improvement
Association Determines to Oper-
ate in Competition to Pacific
Electric Railway
rsnecial to The Herald.l

PASADENA, Oct. 5.-"The Citizens
Auto Bus line" is the name proposed
by the members of the North Lincoln
Avenue Improvement association for
a corpora ton which expects to pur-
chase two forty-horse power, twenty
two passenger machines to take the
place of the red automobiles, which are
to be withdrawn tomorrow after sew
eral weeks service on Lincoln avenue.
Notices were posted today that the
red auto service was to be diseontin-
ued. Advance information to this eE-
feet was discussed in a meeting of the
association last evening which indorsed
the plan of Major A. ]. Toolen and
others to give competition to the Pa
cific Electric in case the machines
were withdrawn.
The automobiles being withdrawn are
the same which spoiled the residents
of Lincoln avenue for a branch car line
by honking at the doors of passengers
while they finished their morning cof-
fee and by running a block or so up
side streets to deposit their human
freight.
The committee to complete plans for
the corporation include Major A. J.
Toolen. Joseph McKibben, Franz Over
cat, John Beck and G. D. Francis. Cap
ital stock is fixed at $4,000, the shares
to be par value of 81 each.
Last evening almost $4,000 was
pledged toward buying the new ma
chimes. Only enough stock will be
sold to start the project. 1t is eX-
pected to improve on the previous auto
service by running cars every thirty
minutes instead of every hour.

TWO OBJECTIONS TO
ANNEXATION RAISED
MANDAMUS SUIT is TAKEN
UNDER CONSIDERATION
Belmont Heights Attorney Alleges
Consolidation Act Is Illegal and
That Petition for Election
Was insufficient
Especial to The Herald.l

LONG BEACH, Oct. 5.-City Attor-
nav Long. who returned today from
SAN Francisco. said the supreme court
took under consideration the matter
of the mandamus to compel the BEL
mont Heights trustees to, call an elec-
ton on the question of consolidation
with Long Beach. An early declsloh'
however, was promised.
The supreme court en- banc listened
to the evidence. Attorney knight OF
Belmont Heights raised two points IN
objection. He alleged that the con-
solidation act was illegal, on the ground
that it took away the right of city
to govern itself and created new city
which was not incorporated under the
state incorporation laws.
City Attorney Hewitt of Los Angeles,
who was present, asked for and was
given permission to file a brief, on be-
half of Los Angeles, defending the law
Attorney Knight also held that the pc
tition for the election was insufficient.
He asked, Furthermore, that commls-
sion be appointed to take testimony
here.
The court did not seem to take seri-
ously the attack on the CONSTITUTIONAL
ity of the law, and a majority OF the
justices seemed to have confidence in
CITY Attorney Longs arguments IN
reniv to Attorney Knights point as to
the alleged insufficiency of the petition.
The court regarded the request for
commission to take testimony as mere
" a step to delay proceedings, accord
ing to Attorney Long.
Mace Nelson, formerly an official IN
Belmont Heights testified the petition
was not sufficiently signed, according
to his examination of the great regis
ter. City Clerk Boynton of Long Beach
introduced as evidence records showing
the proceedings of the city council in
calling the election when petition had
heen submitted.
