Los Angeles. CAL Within d period
of three weeks the people OF Les An
geles have had three mayors and two
elections. absolutely unique IN the
annals of municipal government IN
1.-THE United States.
In this beautiful and prosperous
! city OF 100000 inhabitants, political
chaos and municipal civil war have
| existed since the beginning Of the
! present year, all on account OF that
modern political institution known as
/ the recall
AT a city election held three years
ago. the Republican vote was hope
lessly divided. Los Angeles is nofnl-
ally Republican, but on this occasion
a Democratic mayor, A g. Harper,
was elected, owing to the split in the
/ opposition
A He had hardly gotten his official
4 chair well warmed, when trouble
commenced to brew in three direc
\ tions: A split in his own party, head
ed by few disappointed Democrats
who organized the Democratic League
and from both camps OF his former
Republican opponents,

It is generally understood that D

bound himself to appoint Kern to tn

On March ., Kern suddenly resigr

were that he felt he and his appoin

One difficulty that has confronted

indeed, more numerous than expected

the crowding is really beneficial.
Practically every entertainment fea-

necessity of entertaining the thousands
