SideStepS Cannon Issue and Re-
fuses to Affirm or Deny
Push Affiliations
ATTEMPTS GRANDSTAND PLAY
Controlled by Machine, He Poses
as Peoples Friend to
Gain Popularity
BY =. SHELLEY SUTTON

Congressman James McLachlan, the
machine Republican candidate for re-
election, fatty refuses to state whether
or not he will take stand against the
denomination of autocrat Joe Cannon as
speaker of the house of congress.
Mr.. McLachlan has been placed in a
very uncomfortable position by the de-
mands of his electors to know his exact
attitude in this important matter and
the incumbent has tried in every way
possible to avoid facing the issue. He
has invented various and amusing eX-
cuses to remain on the side of the
standpatters, and at the same time to
pull the wool over the eyes of the pub
lie, attempting sagaciously to convey
the impression that he is leaning to-
ward the insurgents, while at the same
time he has been continually and con-
sistently aligned with the Republican
push, which in the national capital, as
in California, has for a number of
years dominated the affairs of the
government subserving the selfish in
terests of Wall street and the corpora
tions by discriminatory legislation.
This legislation the push, with which
McLachlan, Cannon and others are act
lively identified, has been able to enact,
in the face of tremendous opposition,
because of the despotic gag rules and
outrageous power of the speaker, his
arbitrary right to decide the personnel
of the various committees and his au-
thority to suppress or foster legislation,
according to his purpose.

For County Clerk

Los Angeles county has happily enjoyed the
services of a competent man in the county
clerks ofhce-that man is Charles G. Keyes.
That he has made good is evidenced by the
perslstency with which the voters OF the
county demand his return to office.
A resident of Los Angeles county since 1853
and coming in contact with the populace'
first as deputy and later as the chief of tho
county clerks Office Charles G.. Keyes is
respected and honored by all who know him.
To the Voters of Los Angeles County:
We, members of the Los Angeles County
bar, as practicing attorneys have necessarily
been in intimate touch with the office of the
county clerk of this county in It's various
branches.
In emphasizing the Importance of this office
and the proper discharge of the duties per-
tanning thereto, we cannot too strongly urge
upon the citizens and taxpayers the value OF
the present experienced office force.
The county clerk, Mr.. C. &. keyes, mas
certainly earned the appreciation and good
will of the public in the faithful and mastery
way in which his office has been conducted
during his incumbency. He has shown ex-
cellent Judgment in the selection of courteous
and efficient deputies who have always been
found polite and attentive in serving the peo-
pie having business with the office. We be-
iieve 1t is to the interest of the public to re-
elect this conscientious and efficient official
of the county, and thereby insure the reten-
ton of an experienced office force.
Hence without regard to party affiliations
we unuualifiedy recommend Mr.. Keyes to the
suffrages of our fellow citizens at the primary
election to be held August 16, 1910.

OWES ALL TO PUSH"

McLachlan owes everything he has,
or is, to this Republican push, and 1t
can readily be seen why he should
avoid opposing any of its representa-
tives.
N. ]. Garlock. a we'll known citizen
Of Claremont, recently wrote to Nc
Lachlan in reply to a request from
McLachlan asking Mr. Garlock to vote
for him. Mr.. Garlock demanded to
know of McLachlan what his attitude
would be toward Cannon in the event
Cannon should come up, for reelection.
The following is Mr.. McLachlan's re-
ply, which indicates his artful manner
of lodging, and shows he is utterly un-
willing to come out against the ma
chine incumbent:
"House of Representatives, y. s.,
Committee on War Claims, Washing
ton, D. c., Aug. 6:
"Mr. N. j. Garlock, Claremont, Cal.
Dear Sir-Yours of recent date was
duly received.
"You say you received my letter So
Letting your vote. I do not remember
having written to you making any such
request.
'In regard to what I shall or shall
not do in regard to the denomination
of Mr.. Cannon as speaker of the house,
1 will only say that upon the best of
authority I am sure Mr.. Cannon will
never be a candidate for speaker. Very
sincerely yours,

GREAT WHEAT CROP PROMISED

Thousands of acres of grain two or
three inches high. in fact, so much Of
the ground in the vicinity of Syracuse
and Fairfield is covered with green that
one might easily think spring had come
In that spot OF the earth." says c. a.
Shafer. who has just returned from
several days spent in that neighborhood
In the interests of the Rocky Mountain
Bell Telephone company. That wheat
was planted last fall and has been
growing all winter under a blanket OF
snow. A few warm days and 1t will
make a great showing. Tho fruit men
are out In their orchards trimming the
trees preparatory to the spring work.
Without an exception. they report no
indications In the trees so far or
frost having nipped the tender fruit
buds or injured the trees. The pros
poets are that both the farmers and
tho fruitgrowors will this season gather
in unusual crops. Tho hundreds OF head
of all kinds of stock now being winter
fed in the vicinity are In splendid
shape. But resident sheep mon have
lately received discouaging reports
from their focks on distant winter
ranges. Heavy losses have occurred
among many of the flocks owned by
Davis county men. and consequently
they are feeling rather blue Just now.
But aside from that. things generally
never looked better out on tho old
