The Republicans will open up
their campaign in this County today.
AL, republicans and independents
should attend them and hear the is
sues Of the campaign ably and
impartially discussed. The meetings
will be addressed by the Hon. Thorn
as Parran, Republican candidate for
Congress and others
These meetings will be extremely
interesting and instructive. Mr..
Parran handles the tariff issues
without gloves and has in every
speech made in the campaign clearly
shown and demonstrated that the
people are today enjoying greater
protection and prosperity under the
Aldrich tariff law than ever
before. II might be also well to sug-

STAND BY TAFT

Mayor Gaynor, the Democratic
mayor Of New York City made the
following statement in reference to
President Taft the chief Executive
Of the United States that be is
broadmiuded, progressive and
prnleulman, such as the country is
fortunate in possessing for Presi-
dent
This statement coming from suca
man rs Mayor Gaynor must indeed
impress every sane, common sense
and reasonable man, when they stop
to think that he is mayor Of one Of
the largest and most progressive
cities in the United States, and
when they remember that he was
urged to accept the nomination for
Governor Of New York but refused
because he desired to carry ON the
work Of the office to which he was
elected by the people Of New Yo,k
and again when they consider the
fact that he has many times been
suggested as a Presidential possibili-
ty
This sincere expression Of such a
man as Mayor Gaynor must count
more than mere bandation.
Mayor Gaynor's, statement cor
elusively shows that Mr.. Taft is an
excellent levelheadsd, and conserya-
tive chief executive ard a man by
whom the people should stick. The
excellent work done at the last ses-
ion Of congress " IS a result of the
excellent generalship of President
Taft, through Republican Congress.
There is no denying the fact, that
had Congress been Democratic that
it would have refused TO follow the
lead Of our able President and give
to the people excellent AMI progress
siye legislation, bat rather retro
gressive legislation or none at all SO
long as they could make some sham
play to the galleries.
The only way to stick by the
President is through a republican
Congress and therefore the people
should vote for and elect a Rspubli-
can Congress at the coming election.
The election of a Republican Con-
gress means the endorsement Of the
excellent administration OF Presi-
dent Taft, while on the contrary the
election Of a Democratic one means
hardtimes and loss Of good legisls-
tiont President Taft is a progress
sive man and the people want pro-
gress, protection and prosperity,
which they will get by sticking to
Mr.. Taft through the election of
Republican Congress.

DAVIS BRANDS PAYMENTS
TO DEPUTIES AS ILLEGAL
District Attorney of Orange County
Files Notice on Treasurer
Joplin

SANTA ANA, Feb. 7.-District Attor-
ney Davis has filed notice on county
Auditor and County Treasurer Jopilh
that he considers the payment OF sala-
ries to deputies under the salary act
for the revision of salaries compensa-
ton in Orange county as illegal. Inc
recent decision of the appellate court
in San Francisco. in an action lnvoiV-
ing the legality of a raise in San Mateo
county, is to the effect that where a
given sum has been allowed to cover
compensation and expenses of office an
additional deputy is an Increase in COM
pensation and cannot be allowed.
1t is not likely that the present sys-
tenn in Orange county of paying the
deputies under the new law will be al
tered because of the decision of the san
Francisco appellate court, as 1T is held
here that the decisions of the appellate
courts in different districts cannot et-
feet each other any more than the de-
cisions of different superior courts ar
feet each other. District Attorney pa
Wis present action is consistent with
the attitude he has taken from the be-
ginning of litigation over the matter In
Orange county, which was finally de-
cided in favor of the raises by the ap-
pellate court of this district.

"BUM," YELLOW CUR PET
OF STREET CAR MEN,
STRANGELY DISAPPEARS
It Is Believed That Canine Who Fol-
lowed RaiIroading Has Been
Poisoned

SAN BERNARDINO, Feb. =
Bum" the little yellow cur dog that
has for months made his home on the
cars of the San Bernardino Valley
Traction company, is missing and there
is much sorrow among the conductors
and motormen, as it is believed that he
is dead al the result of poison.
over six months ago the dog Joined
ranks with the electric car men and
since that time has persistently fol-
lowed the various crews about. There
is no portion of the system that he has
not Travelled hundreds of times. From
early morning to late at night the lit
tie dog was either riding on the cars or
racing with them from one end of the
line to the other. He had become SO
expert that he could jump on or on
rapidly moving cars.
When the mad dog scare resulted in
the passing of an ordinance making IT
compulsory for all dogs to wear muz-
zles in Redlands the street car men
made up fund for that purpose They
had also paid his license, both in San
Bernardino and Redlands.
The dog made friends with the police
and various city officials at the city
hall, where he frequently passed the
night.
Yesterday he was riding in the buggy
of City Clerk Harry Allison and sud
denly went into convulsions. County
Humane officer Arbois happened along
and together the two men made an ef-
fort to save the life of the dog. He
appeared to recover finally and sud
denly leaped from the buggy and
quickly disappeared. He has not been
seen since.

LEGS OF STAR FISH
DETACH THEMSELVES;
CREEP AWAY FROM BODY

VENICE, Feb. IA phenomenon,
thought to have been caused by the
difference in water pressure between
the bottom of the Pacific and small
tank, has been witnessed at the Venice
aquarium for the past several days.
The legs, or points sof a large star fish,
have detached themselves one by one
from the body and crawled away, leav-
ing the fish today with only one re-
naming point.
The star fish, about foot and a half
in diameter and beautifully colored,
was caught by Joe Silepegno, an en-
ploye at the aquarium, at the long
wharf in forty feet of water. 1t was
placed in small vat at the aquarium,
and next day leg had to all appear
ances deliberately detached itself and
crept away to another corner. This
procedure was emulated by the remain
ing legs at the rate of about two a day,
until the fish is now almost dead.
The star fish is thought to have spent
it's entire life at the bottom of the sea,
and the sudden removal to the
aquarium is the only cause that has
yet been assigned for it's disastrous at
tack of "locomotor ataXfa."
