Heights picture theater, 269S West Pico
street.
Stephen G. Long, nominee for superb
or court, will address the citizens of
Puente Saturday night, October 20, on
the platforms of the two parties, the
meaning of their similarity and a COM
parison of the two candidates. In his
speech Judge Long, who is city attor-
Hey of Long Beach and known as one
of the most fearless and progressive
leaders of the good government work
in Los Angeles, and also a strong ad-
vacate of removing the judiciary from
partisan politics, will show wherein it
WAS necessary IOE IIl6 1I6puDllCdII par
ty of California, under its new insur-
gent leadership, to copy the Democrat
ic platform and take up the Democratic
reforms so successfully advocated by
Theodore A. Bell.
This, says Judge Long, was done to
prevent the election of Theodore A.
Bell

insurance scroundels but he equivocat-
ed, delayed. and finally the thieves
escaped. When he wanted a third
term, the people demurred. He tried
to explain at a mass melting, but the
people would have none of him. His
sins of omission had condemned him
with the people. lie was condemned,
not by what he had done but by what
he had failed to do.
Judging by what Woolwine has done
in Los Angeles by wiping out the
Harper regime, the most iniquitious
that lll6 CITY ever has tIluuIGOy anu
bringing into power the Alexander adj
ministration, the best that the city
ever has had, he has proved himself
one who will follow in the footsteps
of Folk.
Though Fredericks may fool few
of the people, we say to him: Though |
you closed a few blind pigs and gam
bling hells in Los Angeles county, you
can't use that to get into office. We |
md nfn of hgt
you have done, but because of what |
you could have done and failed to do
eve must condemn his actions in |
the Harper regime. The grand jury |
would have indicted Harper and Kern
if F'redericks had advised it to do So |
We might have convicted them but |
that they were protected by the high |
err ups-the Southern Pacific and it's
allies That's why he did not do it,
in my judgment. In his eight years |
in office the solid three have ruined |
the court house-three men who have |
disgraced their office. What would |
Folk have done? And what do you
think that Woolwine would have done |
had he been in the office of district |
attorney?
"F'redericks twice has gone before
the people and succeeded in having his |
office force increased, obtaining depu-
ties who receive from 5000 to $3.50 |
month and has had his own salary
raised to $4,000 a year. The increase
in his office force was not for the ben
eft of the public. No, he was bene-
fitting himself. He did not have time
to serve the county himself, as he was
engaged in private practice. I have
heard him plead in a courtroom for a
fee of $4,000 in a private case.
"Why, when he is given $4,000 a year,
should he not serve the people who pay |.
him that? Why should he make 100000
a year? If Roosevelt could examine
into the records of F'rederlcks and
Woolwine he would say that Woolwine
and not Fredericks is the man for the
office of district attorney"
Howard J.. Fish, a prominent Repub-
lican of Pasadena, occupied the plat !
form with Mayor Barley and Messrs.
WoolWine and Fleming.
