MARKS AN EPOCH
IN Los ANGELES
First Recall Election in the
United States viii Be
Held Today.

Los Angeles, Cal, March 25--Tomorrow
is the date of the recall election for the
office of mayor, the first Tlayoralty cleo
ton TO be held in the United States IN
der the recall provision Of municipal law.
While there is little doubt about the re-
suit tomorrow, the occasion forms one of
the most important epOchs in the city 5
history. There is practically no doubt
that George Alexander, the candidate Of
the Municipal league, Democratic league
and other component units in the ele-
Inent which forced the recall OF Mayor
Harper and finally compelled the latter ;
resignation under fire, will be chosen.
Opponent Socialist.
Alexander, who is y years of age is a
Republican and former supervisor OF Los
Angeles county. His only opponent on
the recall ballot is Frederick Wheeler.
candidate of the Socialists. The latter
would cut no figure in the result but for
the fact that various factions which were
behind eX-May0r Harper are said to be
secretly supporting Wheeler for the puT-
pose OF defeating Alexander If possible
There are rumOrs that there will be a
concentration. of votes on some vet I'M
named candidate whose name may be
written upon the ticket, but il is not
thought probable. Mayor ". B. stephens
the city council to succeed Harper, has
refused to be considered a candidate at
tOmorrows election and is supporting
Alexander.
The feature OF the election is that par
usar politics is cutting no figure what
ever in the result, Republicans and Dem
ocrats alike supporting Alexander.
