Los Angeles herald., 1910-10-11

"It is the manifest duty OF the Re-
publican county central committee to
unload that man Fredericks for the
sake not only of the Republican party,
but as we'll for the sake of the city
and county of Los Angeles" declared
General L. G. Bellows to a large audi
ence at the Good Government organ
ization meeting at Covina last night.
General Bellows, speaking as a life
long Republican, asserted that every
Republican in che county should sup
port Mr.. Woolwine. He showed by
numerous arguments the difference
between the present administration or
the district attorneys office and what
would have happened If Mr. Woolwine
had been district attorney.
Mr.. Woolwine followed and soon had
the intense attention of every person
in the audience as he arraigned his
opponent for unfaithfulness to the
people. The meeting was a success in
every particular and made votes for
organization
NEED OF GOOD GOVERNMENT
'I wish particularly to talk tonight
of the need of the Good Government
organization" said General Bellows at
the outset of his speech. ''It Is not a
body intended for the work of one
campaign, or temporary in any sense,
but the need for 1t is permanent. Men
who have been active in its operations
are now influential in the councils of
the Republican party. Instead of be-
ing an argument for the lessening of
the work of the Good Government or
ganization, it is, on the contrary, a
strong reason for advancing it.
"I am personally strongly inclined to
the policies of the Republican party
and support 1t nationally because be-
lieve in it's efficiency. But in county
and city affairs-yes, even in national
matters-I hold him poor patriot
who does not place his city, county
and country first. The members of
the Good Government organization are
partisans in that they are active mem
bers of the political parties, but they
hold that any party is the better off
for insistence on the observation of
the principles OF good government.
at am against John D. Fredericks for
district attorney and for Thomas Lee
Woolwine, because every decent Re-
publican who has at heart the future
of his party should take such stand.
Fredericks should be taken off the
ticket"
WOOLWINE RELATES FACTS
General Bellows was given an ova-
ton at the close of his speech. His
popularity among the Republicans
was oVlueHL, anu Ills uSCldFdIlOH IOT'
Mr.. Woolwine carried a weight that
was reflected in the expressions of the
audience.
Mr.. Woolwine said:
It is my purpose tonight to show
that District Attorney Fredericks
has, in cases too numerous to mem
'tion, granted immunity to poll
ticians and criminals in high
places, and has stood guard be-
tween such influential wrongdoers
and the prison doors.
1t is my purpose first to show
by the affidavit of Guy Eddie, city
prosecuting attorney, that Freder-
icks, after gaining control of the
city prosecutors office through a
law that was afterwards declared
invalid, prevented the prosecution
of certain county official who was
renting, for the purpose of prosti-
tuition certain property that be-
longed to Pearl Morton; that the
case was q clear one, and that to
cover up his protection of this
county official he caused the prose-
cutions to be continued against q
certain defendant who was without
influence.
Mr.. Eddie does not name this Of
fetal, but he gives reference to the
number of the cases, where the
papers may be inspected by any
one. The affidavit is as follows:
STATE OF CALIFORNIA,
COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES.
Guy Eddie, being first duly
sworn, deposes and says: That
