FEDERATION OF

MAYORS RECALL
MINISTERIAL BODY FAV0RS
HARPER'S RETIREMENT
DECLARES HIS REMOVAL WOULD
BE POWERFUL LESSON
First Petition Filled at Municipal
League Headquarters by Voters
Who Called to Register Their
Protests Early
The Resolution

HT HEN an elective officer acts, in
w his official capacity, in such a
manner as to injure the moral
welfare and business interests of
his constituents, they ought to have the
right to speedily remove him, and they
should be the sole judges of his fitness
to continue in Office.
The charter of Los Angeles provides
such a remedy, and it has been invoked
against Mayor Harper by the Municipal
league Of Los Angeles.
1t is charged, in substance, that he,
through his police commission, has pro-
tected vice, and that his personal and
business associations are such as to for
bid an impartial enforcement of law as
required by his oath of office.
The recall petition, now being circu-
lated, also alleges certain business rea-
sons for his removal, but in indOrsing
the movement inaugurated by the NUM-
cipaI league we desire to place special
emphasis upon the moral phase of the
The salvation of one boy or one girl,
that have flOurished under the present
city administration, would be of more
value than the entire Owens river aque-
duct, however important that may be
to the city.
In the last analysis, men and women,
boys and girls, are the most valuable
asset of any city country, and what
ever or whoever degrades or debauches
them strikes at the foundations of So
ciety, and should be summarily dealt
with. Therefore, be it
Resolved, by the council Of the Church
Federation of Los Angeles, in regular
meeting assembled, that we indOrse the
action of the Municipal league in invOk-
ing the recall against Mayor Harper, and
we believe his removal from office would
not only advance the cause of civic
righteousness at the present time, but
would teach a wholesome lesson to his
successors for all time.

IBy Associated Press.l

WASHINGTON. Jan. 25.-Legislation
affecting the District Of Columbia was
considered by the house today.
An interesting feature Of the day
was a tribute paid by Mr.. Boutell of
Illinois to the heroism of John R. Binns,
the wireless operator aboard the steam
ship Republic, recently in collision
with the Florida.
The postal savings bank and the
omnibus claims bill were before the
senate for amendment, but no substan-
tial progress was made on either
measure.
An amendment was made to the pos
tai bill, limiting to $500 the amount
of deposits of any one person, and
fixing the rate of interest at per cent,
with the understanding that the amend
ment would be subject to further
change by the senate.
Senator Carter, in charge of the
measure, announced that he would keep
il before the senate on every opportu-
nifty until it was disposed of.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Jan. 25.-In-

in session here.
Only one wage scale of large impor-
tance is to be negotiated, that Of the
miners Of the three anthracite districts
in Pennsylvania.
The organization is giving much at
tention to the dispute between the ma
tional administration, headed by John
Walker of Illinois, who is Mr.. Lewis
rival for the presidency.
The ballots cast December 25 are
now being counted and the result may
be announced tomorrow or Wednesday,
The controversy is bitter and charges
of improper influence in the election
have been made.
It is said that if the count does not
give Mr.. Lewis a large majority Mr.
Walkers friends will attempt to have
a sufficient number Of votes thrown
out to put the final decision before the
convention.
Mr.. Lewis friends assert his ma
jority will be between 10000 and $4,000
and that they will be able successfully
to defend the administration cause.
