Largest Establishment
in the West

The expansion of the Los Angeles
Market company in the past has not
kept pace with the wonderful growth
of the city in population and indus
trial enterprises. When the old mar
ket building at Ninth and Los Angeles
streets was occupied it was thought
that ample space had been provided.
owing to crowded conditions, seven
years ago the company bought three
and one-half acres on the southeast
corner of Ninth street and Central ave-
nue. and invested heavily in perma-
nent improvements.
But Los Angeles kept on growing
until this location has become too cir
cumscribed. The Market company was
forced again to seek larger space, and
this time they have built for the fu-
ture-at an outlay of $1,5000O0.
The new market locatiop is at the
corner of Last Sixth street and Ala
media, one block below Arcade sta
tion. The yards and driveways absorb
more than eighteen acres of space and
includes a warehouse of more than
2000-carload capacity.

says, Conforms to the principles and
intent Of the primary law It la the
ticket, from the standpoint. Of princi.
pie and from true conception of the
law, that any Republican may :consci.
entiously advocate and vote. From
the standpoint OF personality, it is
equally unassailable. Every man on it
is a representative citizen, as nearly
without blemish as it is possible, in
these human times, for any consider.
able aggregation Of mortal men to be.
In theory, and according to his own
notions, of course, the Performer of
other days might have selected a bet,
ter ticket than this one; but when we
recall the fact that the "reformers'
of those days are now the political
machine" men Of the present hour, and
that in the matter Of combinations and
states, they have outdone the worst
gang stunts of the political yester.
days, it must be admitted and we have
no doubt will generally be conceded
that theory is weak reed for prac.
teal public to lean upon.
Now twill have been noticed that
the champions of the ticket that was
framed up at Valley City weeks and
weeks ago, long before the expiration
OF the filing date, are referring to the
persons on that ticket as candidates. u
BY whom were they made candidates?
Certainly not by the voters, through
delegates or otherwise. A candidate
Devils Lake inter-ocean. (Devils Lake, N.D.) 1909-1915, 1910-06-10

Is one who has been selected in q law
full and an orderly way to represent
his party in campaign between two
or more parties. Until he has been so
selected he Is mere aspirant for a
place on his party's ticket. The date
of making selections of candidates, as
provided by law, is June 29th. The
men selected at that time will be the
candidates to contend with the oppos-
ing party at the November election.
However, these important distinc-
tions have never disturbed the old
"reformers" who are now the ma
chine politicians" of our state; else
they would not have had the unprece-
dented hardihood, or perhaps it would
be better to say the unparalleled gall, to
do what they did at Valley City last
winter, when the eliminating commit
tee was making and unmaking can
didates" while their financial hackers
(the "gold-dust twins'') waited!
So it is that we are presenting the
republican ticket that represents true
party and genuine primary law princi-
ples,-the ticket that any republican
may vote, knowing that when this tick
ct is elected and after the men on it
take their places as chosen there will
be no Democratic senators in Wash
ington from the Republican state of
North Dakota.-Adv.

MINES PROMISE WELL

F.. b. Livingston. who is oper-
ating silver lead mining property
near Antelope Valley, has returned
to Carson for supplies and chance
10 look things over. says the APP
peal. Mr.. Livingston, who has in
terested California capitalists in the
property, speaks most encouragingly
Of the outlook. Development work
Is being pushed ahead and every
day shows the ledge to be improv-
ing. while some very high grade
galena ore is being extracted.
The ground was discovered about
year ago, with several Carson
people interested. The original as
says were most fiattering, and with
the present development work, now
being carried on in a systematic
manner, there is every likelihood
Of shipper coming to the front in
short order. The ore resembles
that of Lucky Boy in character and
in assay. The new discovery prom
tses a great deal to those interested
and many claims have been taken
up in that section. Mr. Livingston
expects to return to the scene of
operations in a few days. Work is
to be prosecuted during the winter.
