| Judi ne was lHe uOHlluee Ol Jnc hS- publican party for mayor a few years ago, A. c. Harper, since disgraced, being his successful opponent at the polls. But although defeated by a | small margin, Dr. Lindley is still one { of the shining stars in the citizenship i of Los Angeles. He did not mince ! his words when he spoke last night. He declared that Arizona was the pro- | tege of southern California;; that their interests were homogeneous, and that this was demonstrated by the ! fact that Congressman McLachlan and i Senator Flint stood sOlidly by Ari- zona in her valiant fight against joint statehood, and that these men were with her now in her fight for single statehood.
 Dr. J. W. Finn, a personal friend of Dr. Lindley, was the next speaker. and he extended a hearty welcome to the visitors. Then the calls arose 1 the Los Angeles Times. MT. Me cred the dedieatory poem at the un- ment, and he has not been forgotten, ] u | that greeted him as he diffidently arose to speak, "After I had filed my report for my paper with the Los Angeles Express. asked, Are you going to give Prescott about two ! hundred wordsg' And I said: Not on your life. Prescott is not to be ! sighted with two hundred words. | n, Al,,a f est honor that has ever been given me in my life. When the O'Neill monument was to be unveiled, the citizens here sent for me from Los Angeles, to deliver a poem upon the Rough Riders-the grandest body of men in the Southwest. I don't care who knows it-it may go across seven seas-but I say here that I like Pres cott better than any city in the South west. I love southern California. but I love Arizona more, but outside of the town where I was born. there is no place that has my best wishes for prosperity more than Prescott.
 MT. McGroarty was loudly acclaim ed at the close of his remarks, and then there was a demand for MT. Barnard of the Los Angeles Exam

 Speeches were then made by Reese M. Ling, Paul Burks, Attorney Craig of the Los Angeles Chamber of Com meree, John M. Ross, Mayor Gold water and F. M. McComas.
 Then the gathering broke up and the visitors were given automobile rides through the business section of the city. When they returned to the praise of Arizona, and particularly fOrnia Ink company, was especially enthusiastic regarding Prescott. "This
 is the first place on the trip" said he, "where we have had cool and
 bracing weather. It was not all through southern Arizona, but the
 people there were very hospitable.
 You have a magnificent country of !; possibilities. It is only in its in fancy, and it will be a great state
 when admitted to the Union."
 NJ. J. Hickey, who was one of the , promoters of the O'Neill monument, forsook his couch, in order to mingle . with the AngelenOs. There was no
 happier man in town than when he met John McGroarty at the Hotel St.
 Michael, and he broke a bottle of
 wine to celebrate their reunior4.
 Over a thousand citizens were at ; the train when it rolled out at Il , o'clock, and as the engine bell clang- ed farewell, the Angelenos shouteo
 in unison: "Here's to Prescott, the , Mile-High town, and she is just as good as she is high"
