.FREDER|CKs GUILTY Of
STUPENDOUS BLUNDER
L. A. EXAMINER

(From the Examiner, Oct. 6, 19OS)
The removal of City Prosecutor
Woolwine from his office as an as
sistant district attorney is a stupendous
blunder. District Attorney Fredericks'
action is suspicious. Woolwine has
charged that the mayor and the police
commission are protecting vice in Los
Angeles. Here are his words:
II charge unhesitatingly that vice
is being protected in this city by the
mayor and police commission, and that
L have sufficient evidence upon which
fighting, conscientious, hard working
district attorney, with the power at his
command, backed up by a grand jury
that means business, will lead to dis
closures fixing the responsibility for
this deplorable condition"
To remove Wolwine at the very
moment when he is ready to give his
evidence to the grand jury can only
lead to one conclusion-that an effort
is being made to silence him.
Why does Fredericks want to silence
Woolwine? Who is to be spared? Who
is to be whiteWashed?
Surely Mayor Harper and the police
commission do not want the charges
against them smothered Who, then,
is to be benefited by Woolwine's re-
movaI
The public wants the TRUTH Are the
mayor and the police commission really
protecting vice?
Every decent citizen wants an an
swer to that question. The removal
of Woolwine only makes it more neces-
sary than ever before that the grand
jury shall probe to the bottom and
spare none. The facts must be made
public

AUTOIST'S SOCIALISTIC
SIGNS CAUSE TROUBLE
Man Arrested Is Quickly Released
When Found to Have Vio-
lated No Law

Because he carried two Socialistic
political signs on his automobile, A. j.
Peterson, proprietor of a restaurant
at 242 East Main street, was arrested
Saturday afternoon by Officer Pratt,
at Third and Spring streets and booked
at central station on a charge OF Vlo-
lating the advertising ordinance.
According to Captain Lehnhausen, in
charge of central station, Peterson was
not detained longer than ten or fifteen
minutes as it was found that he could
not lawfully be held on the charge
After Assistant City Attorney Reeve
decided that Peterson had not Violat-
ed the advertising ordinance, Captain
Lehnhausen says the man was immedi-
ately released.
"On account OF the great number of
arrests that are made every day." said
Captain Lehnhausen, "some mistakes
are bound to be made. This was one
of them, but Peterson was not seri-
ously inconvenience by his arrest. AS
soon as 1t was learned from the prop
er source that he could not be held on
the charge on which he was arrested
he was at once released"
CAUSE OF ARREST
Peterson was taken into custody af-
ter a Spring street merchant tele-
phoned to headquarters, complaining
that Peterson, who Is a Socialist, was
parading his auto on Spring street,
carrying these signs:
"They did it in Milwaukee,"
I'VE can do it in California"
Captain Lehnhausen says Chief of
Police Galloway happened to be in his
office at the time and ordered Peter
sons arrest.
Discussing the case last evening, AS
sistant City Attorney Reeve said:
1.-THE ordinance Peterson was alleged
to have violated specifies that no We
hicles shall be used exclusively for ad-
Vertising purposes. Whether Peter
son was using his automobile Satur-
day for any purpose other than to dis
play his Socialistic sign dose not enter
into the case. These two signs were
merely political exhortations and were
not exhibited for advertising, under
the law"
Captain Lehnhausen said r. Tatum
Of Florence, who was arrested Thurs
day night, during the big labor parade,
for displaying a banner bearing vari-
GUS Socialistic phrases, was held be-
cause he deliberately violated the
promises of the central labor commit
tee which promised the police that no
signs and transparencies other than
certain specified ones should be dis
played. Tatum's banner bore such
sentences as mo More Strikes" mo
More Panics,' mo More War" "Vote
for Socialism"
All these according to Captain Lehn-
hausens were not included in the list
agreed on by the labor committee and
the police.

PROHIBITION ORGAN DENOUNCES
DISTRICT ATTORNEY FREDERiCKS

Capt. Broadhead was finally indicted
and summoned for trial. 1t was
known to one of the Mr.. Fredericks.
deputies that we were in possession OF
evidence that was sufficient in all JUS
tice to convict any one Of these
recreant officers Of completely In some
of the most shameful dealings. This
deputy asked us to be at the trial OF
Capt. Broadhead as a witness. we
assured him that we would not be
wanted, but he said for us to be on
hand, as our testimony was impor-
tant We attended the trial for a day
and a half and Mr. Fredericks con-
Quoted the trial with much skill, but
we were never called to the witness
stand. If conviction had been wanted
it would seem but natural that the
man who had the evidence and the
man whom the district attorney knew
had the evidence called for by the
grand jury, would have been called,
but such was not the case. In the
cases of the ex-councilman, the dep
uty sheriff, the shoe merchant-in a
word, the higher, ups" who used or
rented their property for immoral pur-
poses and against whom we sWore out
complaints, not one of them was ever
tried except the ex-councilman, and
his trial was a farce and he was later
dismissed.
"Mr. Fredericks may have closed a
few blind pigs when they were run
by Italians, MeXicans or others whose
political influence was a negative
quantity, but when it came to such
men as the political force in the sher-
iffs Office, or the notorious woman
who was using his property for i'm
moral purposes, Mr.. Fredericks did
not favor legal suasion and with much
show of annoyance informed us that
If we would attend to our own busi-
ness he would to his. His business
was not to interfere with the "higher
ups" who ran houses of prostitution,
for in all the years he had been in
office he had not interfered with these
people and showed no disposition to
do so when warrants were sworn out
for them. We said in the California
Voice two years ago that the recall
ought to extend to the district at
torney's office, and we said so, not
because of prejudice or any other per-
sonal reason, but because we did look
into these matters with an eye un-
dimmed by political prejudice or per-
sonal interest A change in the dis
trict attorneys office, we are sure,
will work no hardship upon the law
abiding element of the city,

PROHIBITION FIGURES
INeFIGHT IN UTAH

SALT LAKE CITY, Nov. BIASED
on the vote of two years ago and the
efficiency of organization, the indica-
tions are that tomorrow's result in
Utah will be close, with the chances
favoring the Republicans, both for
congress and the legislature.
An uncertain element is the strength
the Democrats promise of a statewide
prohibition law will draw from the
..opI blican ranks.
Ch-irman G. e. Loose of the Repub-
lican state central committee said to-
night: .
I'VE will re-elect Congressman How
ell 900 plurality and the legisla-
ture will be overwhelmingly Republi-
can on joint ballot"
J. II. Moyle, chairman of the Demo-
cratic committee, would give no def
mite figures but said: 'Tt will be a
Democratic landslide and we will car
ry the legislature and congressman by
large vote"
Los Angeles herald., 1910-11-08

The California Voice, the organ of
the Prohibition party in Los Angeles,
is out with a red-hot denunciation Of
District Attorney Fredericks in which
the Voice reviews the shameful mac
tivity of Fredericks at the time of the
Harper scandal. The Voice says
"The California Voice was the first
newspaper in Los Angeles to demand
a recall of our former mayor and chief
of police. On October 3, 1907, we said
in the Voice, We demand the recall or
the mayor. We now have the evidence
in hand justifying this demand etc.
Some time later the other papers took
up the cry and some of them sent to
the Voice for data, photographs, etc.
When the grand jury was called to in
Vestigate the case evidence was sought
everywhere by our district attorney ex-
cept at the Voice office. We had 1T
and the authorities evidently knew
that we had it. Some of the other
papers knew 1t and came to the Voice
office for 1t. But sufficient evidence
could not be had for the grand jury
to find true bills and so the farce
would have closed had not the people
raised a hue and cry of 'whitewash,'
"a special grand jury was called and
the information, we are told, was given
to the district attorney, John d. Fred
ericks, that we had a map of the en-
tire redlight district, together with the
names of every man who owned foot
of ground in the district, and every
one that was connected with the scam
dial. The special grand jury was in
formed of this fact and we are reliably
informed that members of the grand
jury went to Fredericks and asked
that tho evidence in our possession be
brought before them that they might
have the benefit of it in determining
the guilt or innocence of the accused,
but this evidence was never called for
and we are told that Mr. Fredericks
refused to allow us to be brought be-
fore the grand jury or to allow 1t to
examine the evidence in our possession
upon which we demanded the recall.
Anyway, it was not done, and while
rewards were offered for witnesses
that were here in the city, this evi-
dence, giving the name of every man
who owned property in this district,
evidence that was vital and that could
have been had for the asking, was not
wanted.

Candidate for Assembly in 74th
District Pleased at Sup
port He Receives

John l. Stafford, candidate for as
trict, expresses pleasure with the man
ner in which the people over his dis
trict have advocated his election and
supported his candidacy. Especially
is he pleased with the good will shown
him in Garvanza, Highland Park and
East Los Angeles, where he is known.
Mr.. Stafford is confident that, not
withstanding the large normal Repub-
lican majority in many precincts of
the old First ward. he will defeat his
opponent in all of them. To the read
ers of The Herald Ar. Stafford ex-
tends his thanks. and best wishes for
a hearty Endorsement at the polls
today.
Mr. Stafford said:

friends have stood by me loyalty and
l wish to thank them one and all for
their generous and energetic support

publican vote from the fact that the
most progressive and representative
Republicans who reside in my oppo-
nent's section are strenuously oppos-
ing him. The facts in the case have
been so thoroughly aired that it is
not necessary for me at this late hour
again to go into them: 1 consistently
and uncompromisingly stand for and
represent the best interests of my dis
trict. I want to do everything 1 can to
help not only my own section of the
state, but also California. If I am
elected / will live squarely, conscien-
tiously up to my pledges. I await the
result of tomorrow's election without
any misgivings as to the outcome, be-
lieving my candidacy is regarded
much more favorably by the great
body of the voters in the Seventy
fourth district than is that of my in

VOTERS APATHY MAKES
ILLINOIS DOUBTFUL STATE

CHICAGO, Nov. 1.-The usual ces-
sation of hostilities and resting ON
arms the night before battle failed
to materialize in Illinois tonight-the
last night for candidates to impress
their worth and merits on their doubt
ing constituents.
Except in Chicago, the interest has
been so little that campaign managers
in frenzied efforts to wake the voters
from their lethargy, kept UP the fire
of argument to the very last. Only in
few country districts was any real
interest shown.
Chicago has several close fights on.
One product of the approach of cleo
tion day was the retirement of ex-
travagent prophecies by both parties
and acknowledgment at last that the
apathy in general made all estimates
only guess.
