DIXON HEARING TO
BE TORR|D AFFAIR
Hot Session Expected Monday
Night When Cages Charges
Will Be Heard by Board

Apparently preparations were completed yes
terday for hot session before the board of
police commissioners Monday night, when
charges against Captain Dixon, made by w.
d. Gage of S14 South Broadway, are to be
taken up again. Chief Galloway is to report
back to the board the result of his investiga-
ton of the charges filed with it and referred
to him.
As Captain Dixon yesterday filed with the
board the names Of six patrolmen who will
be his witnesses, and Chief Galloway all
ready has caused to be subpoenaed eight wit
nesses summoned at the request of Gage, it
seems certain that the chiefs report is going
to be that the charges warrant trial by the
board.
1t has been stated, already that several
women arrested few days ago and fined on
vagrancy charges later made affidavts that
they were not moested while Captain Dixon
directed the policing OF the district in which
they lived, although he knew they were ocu-
pying houses said to be of i'll repute Per-
sistent rumors were afloat yesterday that other
affidavts had been secured charging Captain
Dixon with offenses Of a different character
Neither Captain Dixon nor Chief Galloway
would discuss their plans yesterday. Both were
active however, In preparation for the meet
ing tomorrow night. Secretary McKeag of the
police commission yesterday subpoenaed the
following patrolmen at the request of Captain
DiXon
W. r. Bowe, j. r. Browning. F. d. Mack,
B. r. Parker ]. H. Dean and ]. H. Shafer.
witnesses already summoned in behalf Of W.
d. Gage are:
son, an attorney; L. M. Rich, private detec-
tive; F. r. Radcliffe. b. c. Johnson DR.. Har-
rington and Mrs ]. N. Denham.
Gage charges that he went to the office of
Captain Dixon at the latter's request and
there was insulted, accused of degenerate acts,
and subjected to much profane abuse These
charges, however, may be almost subordinated
by others likely to be presented.

WILL TRY AGAIN
TO END STRIKE
Number of Men About Plants De-
creases, and There Is No
Disturbance

1t was said by organizers at Union
effort would be made to bring about a
conference between representatives of
the striking metal workers and their
former employers. If this is refused
it is understood that the strike will re-
ceive a fresh impetus.
The effect of the proclamation of
Mayor Alexander was noticeable yes
terday in the vicinity of the various
iron works. The number of men gath
cred in front of these places was
smaller than it has been before, and
those who assembled kept moving and
created no disturbance.
The strikers claim they have the
shops pretty well cleaned out. Never
theless, the employers are showing no
disposition to arbitrate. Some of the
employers say they would rather close
their shops and have their machines
idle than to make any concessions. All
of the concerns that have made con-
cessions to the strikers up to this time
have been smaller ones employing only
few men.
1--WE have sent a committee to Mayor
Alexander to assure him that we are
well aware of the laws of the state
and the city ordinances, and that we
do not propose to violate them. but
that we intend to maintain our consti-
tutional rights" said Stewart Reid iu-
ternational organizer of the American
Federation of Labor, yesterday
THE strike will go on as it is today
with no large walkouts, but with
steady additions to our ranks. ana we
are~awaiting a reply to our communi-
cation to the Founders and Employers
association"

panies had been permitted by previous
councils and administrative officials to
tear up the city's streets and pave be-
tween their rails as they saw fit, thus
running hundreds of beautiful highways
on which the city had expended vast
sums of money to macadamize and
maintain. The city council is now
compelling the street railway COM
panies to do this work with the same
care and materials used by the city.
''In the many years that have lived
under municipal government l have
never until now lived in city where
the public service corporations We're
not stronger than the people in affairs
of government" he said. II have never
before known a time when the tele-
phone, street railway and lighting COM
panies were not stronger in clash
than were the people. l know, too, that
today in Los Angeles the people and
their welfare are nearer to the city
government than any other interests.
IF Healy and Houghton are returned
to the places they disgrace1 and~be-
trayed in the city council it will dis
grace our city. If they are again per-
mitted to take part in the administra-
tion of this city it will be apparent that
the people who brought about these re-
formed conditions have lost their in
terest in the movement and are not
maintaining that vigilance which is the
price of our welfare and liberty.
EYES ON Los ANGELES
"WhiIe in New York on my recent
trip east 1 learned that the eyes of the
whole United States are on Los An
geles. We are an example for all of
those eastern cities, and they are
watching us and utilizing our ex-
periences for their own benefit We
can't afford to step back into our old
ways.
zone large investor told me in New
York that because Of our progressive
methods here, and our clean admin
istration, he intended to quit investing
in New York and put his capital into
real estate in Los Angeles, because he
knows he will be properly protected
here.

Whiffen for many years. They are
the kind of men you should be proud to

the same thing when the big banking
interests, gas companies and others af-
fected by the business license ordinance
threatened us, and said they would
refer it to the people, although they
secretly knew the people would sus-
tain me. And I have invoked the refer
endum on this ordinance. We will see
If the people sanction it. believe they
will. But, of course, the big interests
won't.
"Our main issue, however, is the
election of Messrs. Stewart and Whit
fen. The voters of Hollywood should
give them nine to one. Neither of these
men is in the race for the meager SAL
ary Of 800 month, for both of them
are comfortably fixed. They will lose
money by serving. Their time is val
liable. They are not affiliated in any
manner whatever with any corporation,
and will not be controlled by any
special interest. They are in the race
because the Good Government forces
want them there, where they can serve
the taxpayers, guard the interests of
the city and aid us in administering the
affairs of this city in a loyal and honest
manner"
Speeches also were made by Lee c.
Gates and the two candidates. Mr..
Gates speech was loudly applauded,
and was one Of the features of the
rally.
THE move for better government" /"
said Mr.. Gates, sis not an instantane-
GUS one. 1t has ben slow and painful.
We have had hard, uphill fight to
wage, opposed by tremendous interests
antagonistic to the peoples interests.
The question now is, Will the city step
back, or will 1t keep on going forward? :?

The eyes of the nation are, as Mr.. Glib
bon said, fixed anxiously on us, to see
what will be the result of our attitude
They are more interested in our moral
than in our material development. The
people are on trial in this election-not
the administration. 1t is a question of
loyalty to principle. Will the people of
Los Angeles prove that they have the
same sense of morality and the same
degree of intelligence at this next coun-
cilmanic election that they manifested
at the last municipal election. VIII

In his candidacsy for the city council,

when he was president Of the chamber
of commerce and when he served on
the harbor commission. You are all
familiar with his faithful and ener-
getic work in behalf of the people
when he held those important offices"
Mr.. Gibbon then told of the clean
and commendable record of Mr..
Whiffen-of his work in behalf of good
government, and his we'll known 10y
atty to the people in the past, when,
as cited by the mayor he stood-back Of
Mr.. Alexander at a time when the lat
ter was fighting for principle since
adopted by his party, but which at the
time indicated political death for it's
pioneer advocate.
REVIEWS RECORDS
He also reviewed the records of
Healy and Houghton, in connection
with the telephone rates, river bed
franchise, etc. In fact, Mr. Gibbon
went thoroughly into the past of these
two men.
Mr.. Dunlop then introduced Mayor
Alexander.

he said, must come to time. They
have been dancing to theirs long

done we are going to do it. have
all the respect in the world, and a
great deal of praise. for legal corpora
tions which do not attempt to infringe
on the rights of the people, but
won't be fooled or bulldozed by any
corporation, and 1 keep my eye on all
of the larger ones. They'll stand
watching. If they're honest it won't
do any harm to watch them. II
they're crooked it will do the people
good
"Mr. Huntington deserves a great
deal of praise for his development work
in Los Angeles. He has given us the
finest street railway system in the
world. But he is not always here.
and while he is away his subordinates
try to make all the money they can
raised. These subordinates have shown
great deal of negligence in paving
between their tracks.
"This is the first city council that
had the courage and dared to make
them do their duty. When that ordi-
nance came up before me, adopted by
a vote of five to two, the railway in
terests brought a tremendous influ
ence on me to veto it and employed
engineers and sharp attorneys to con-
vince me that 1t was wrong, but 1
called in our city engineer and city at
torney and got other wise counsel, and
despite the railway influence I became
convinced that the ordinance was
right, so I refused to veto it.

AGED MINISTER
IS LAID TO REST
Religious Services Over Body of
Rev. MyIne Conducted
in Hollywood

Religious circles of Los Angeles were
saddened the first of the week by the
death of Rev. Solomon Mylne at his
home, 610 North Highland avenue
Hollywood.
Rev. Mr.. MyIne was SO years old
and for nearly half century had
been in the active ministry of the
Presbyterian church, coming to Cali
fernia after retiring from active work
as a clergyman.
Rev. c. G. Patterson, pastor of the
Hollywood church, conducted the fu-
neral service at the home Monday,
which was followed by a public SER
vice at the church in which he was
assisted by Rev. Thomas Chambers,
Rev. w. S. Younug, Rev. w. G. Mills,
Rev. A. B. Prichard, Rev. d. M. Gan
dier and Rev. ]. r. Compton.
PATTERsON's ADDRESS
Mr.. Patterson said in part:
ga few short weeks ago-it seems but
yesterday-he whose loss we mourn to-
day sat in that pew a devout wor-
shipper. Today he worships in the up
per sanctuary.
Blessed are the dead who die in
the Lord henceforth; yea saith the
Spirit that they may rest from their
labor and their works do follow them.'

eminently fitting that special reference
should be made to the homecoming of
one who for about forty years occu-
pied so large a place in the community
in which he dwelt during his active
ministry and who was so closely iden-
titled with the work and history OF
the church of God during all that Pc
riod.
'After his retirement from active
ministerial work he came to the land
of sunshine to spend the evening Of
his life in a less active but very
precious ministry, which was continued
almost to the hour of his departure
from our midst.
"'He being dead yet speaketh,'
When he returned on the occasion of
his ministerial jubilee, to the scene of
his we'll nigh forty years ministry
st. Andrews church, Smiths Falls,
Ontario, Canada, the splendid reception
accorded him and the character of the
testimonials he received from various
bodies educational and religious) bore
eloquent testimony to the large place
ne had occupied in the life of that
community. and the warm place he
