WEST SIDERS OF SOUTH
PASADENA WANT TRUSTEES
Begin Campaign for Election to Be
Held in April,
1910

PASADENA, June 10.-Residents of
the west side in South Pasadena, stirred
by the continual overlooking of their
claims to representation on the board
OF trustees, have started already a
movement which will make itself felt
in the next city election, which comes
III April, 1910
1t is a long time in advance, but they
are determined to get started in plenty
OF time to perfect their organization
and break in on the ring, as they call
the present board of trustees.
There have been five designations
from. the board of trustees originally
elected by the people, and in each case
the board has selected a man to sue
coed the retiring member with, it is al
legged, but little regard for the feelings
of the city at large.
Every time there has been resigna-
ton the citizens of the west side have
asked that a man from their section of
the city be appointed, and every tim
the trustees have selected a man from
the center or eastern section of the
city.
The last occurrence of this kind came
Monday night of this week, when the
trustees accepted the resignation OF
Leonard Hargrave, and in executive
session picked B. D. Fulrow as his sue
cessor on the board.
As the term of Jonathan S. Dodge
chairman of the board, expires this
coming year, and the other five places
being filed by men appointed instead
of elected-expire al the same time, il
will leave South Pasadena in the unique
position of having all six places to fill
at one election, which has not happened
since the first incorporation of the city
And out of these six the people Of
the west side expect to secure one Oh
two. Leaders of this section of the
city, which is one of the most thickl!
populated of the suburb, will shortly
get together and agree on a ticket. anC
campaign work will not be delayed un
til the coming of the election, but will

WAREHOUSE FACTION
REFUSES TO RESPOND
MAKES NO MOVE TO NAME
WATER ARBlTRAT0RS
Mayor Still Hopes Opposition Viii
Agree to His Plan for Settle
ment of Vexed Question
at Pasadena
1sn.olal 10 rhe Herald. ]

PASADENA. June 10-Wanted: In
formation as to why the opposition
which means the Waterhouse faction,
does not get together. as was suggested
bv Mayor Thomas Farley, and take
some action. even if it be refusal to
the proposed plan to select a commits
sion which should investigate and re-
port on the best and cheapest fashion
in which the city of Pasadena can &C
quire the plants and franchises OIL the
water companies in the city.
If 1t were not for the dignity OF ms
office, that is propably the advertise
ment Mayor Farley would insert in the
Pasadena papers.
The proposal for the selection of
commission was advanced month ago.
George Kernaghan, one of the most
prominent of the Waterhouse faction,
thought it good thing, but action was
deferred until the return OF the chalr-
man of the late campaign committee,
Mark Weight, a former mayor of the
city, who was attending to business IN
terests in the north.
Now, Mr.. Weight has been back for
week and-still there is nothing doing.
The Waterhouse people have not even
held a consultation, and as far as can
be found out there are no plans for
holding one. When Mayor Farley, in
the campaign just passed. advocated
this commission as part of his platform,
the Warehouse people jeered and init
mated they did not intend to pull or
help to pull the mayors chestnuts out
of the fire.
Now the mayor is wondering if they
will continue in this attitude. He
hopes not, for Mr.. Kernaghan is a
recognized authority on the water
question, even it, from the standpoint
of the administration, he is on the
wrong side of the fence.

ALTADENANS t.SK AID IN
CONSTRUCTION OF SEWER
Mayor of Pasadena Believes City Has
No Power to Extend Re-
quested Help

PASADENA, June 9.-Appealed to by
the people of Altadena to bear a por-
ton of the expense of building new
storm drains under the Shaw act,
Mayor Thomas Farley has decided that
under the city charter, the city cannot
expend money on improvements out
side the limits.
The people of Altadena are preparing
petitions to be presented to the board
of supervisors of the county asking for
the establishment of a storm drain dis
trict extending from the arroyo on the
west to Lake avenue on the east and
from the mountains to the Pasadena
limits.
There is considerable opposition
among the dwellers on the car line 60
the petition, as they are at present
fairly well protected and believe that
the new district would benefit only the
residents in the extreme west end of
the city.
Mayor Farley has informed the Alta
denans that this city will cooperate
with them in taking care of the storm
drain after it is advanced to the limits
of this city.

Off THAN BELIEVED
REPORT OF $4,000 DEFICIT
is ERRONEOUS
Revised Figures Show That Amount
Due from County Was Not
Included in Report Read
by Mayor
Especial to The Herald.l

SAN BERNARDINO, June 1O.-A
pleasing surprise was sprung today al
the city hall when it was learned that
the city was $4,000 better off than the
mayor reported at the last council
meeting, when it developed that the
finances were lin the hole" to the eX-
tent of $4,000
The mistake on the part of those who
gave the figures to the mayor and
which somewhat startled the citizens of
San Bernardino appears to have been
caused by taking the amounts from the
books before the returns from the coun-
ty settlement had been credited up.
Instead of $4,000 in the hole the city
is only $4,000 behind, or will be before
any more revenue is received from
taxes, the money received from licenses
and police court fines not being suffi-
cient to meet the expenses.
