City Editor
Had Just Returned
From Honolulu

A. Churchill Harvey Elder, assistant
city editor of the Times, who died
from injuries, had taken the position
only 10 days ago. He had been MEM
Der Of the editorial staff four years ago,
but i'll health had compelled him to
give up his work there and to go to
Honolulu, where he was city editor of
the Honolulu Advertiser for some
Angeles in May and resumed employ
ment with the Times and was ad-
vanced to the post he occupied at the
time of his death.
The young man was % years OF age,
a member Of one of the old southern
California families. His grandfather,
G. w. Harvey OF whittier, was one of
the founders of that place His
mother, Mrs. Emma Harvey Elder; a
brother and sister live there.

His wife. Mrs. Leola Harvey Elder, re-
turned a short time ago from Honolulu
and was in Oakland when word of her
husbands death reached her. She de-
parted on the Owl last evening for
Los Angeles.
p Mrs. Harvey Elder was an actress,
Leola May, before her marriage. In
Honolulu she had been engaged in
newspaper work with her Husband.
She was temporarily engaged in the
Oakland Orpheum's publicity depart
ment since her return from Honolulu
and was preparing to rejoin her hus-
band in Los Angeles in a short time.

Labor Leaders
Deny Dynamite
Caused Flames

In labor circles of this city the
theory that dynamite caused the
Los Angeles Times is SCORED at,
many declaring that only a gas
or an oil explosion would have
been quickly followed by fire.
The assertion that labor union
sympathizers are responsible for
it is refuted by many arguments.
Supervisor John Kelly, presi-
dent of the labor council, said:
TT is absurd to charge union
ism with this outrage. In fact,
there was no reason for the Los
Angeles unions to have taken
such step, as the strike was
practically won, and they knew
it. Unionism has the equal right
of pointing at the employers and
charging them with the crime.
THE Merchants and Manufac-
would resort to any extreme to
beat the union labor movement
in that city. People not familiar
with the situation can not realize
the intensity with which these
men hate the union movement.
They had everything to gain
by such a movement. while the
unions, already on the verge of
an industrial victory, stood to
lose public sympathy. Employ
ers not half so virulent against
unions as those men at Los An
geles have not stopped at she'd
ding human blood in Colorado
and other places to turn the tide
of public sympathy.
Unions do not believe in using
any but established methods in
winning their rights. We do not
countenance violence in any
form. 1t is a peculiar fact that
the fire followed so quickly
when It is a we'll known fact
that during the 1906 fire scores
of buildings were dynamited
without a single fire resulting
from the explosion. The reports
of the quick flames indicate oil
or gas.
General Otis, through his pa
per, has been preaching blood
shed to the people of Los An
geles ever since the strike began.
Many editorials have urged the
authorities to use soldiers and
shoot the strikers down If they
refused to return to work.

were dependent upon bark and sorrel
leaves for liquid refreshment They
placed all the blame upon the for
eigners who were in the land.
They were particularly incensed
against Tientsin construction COM
pany which is building a railroad
through the country. The road crossed
rivers in many places on bridges. The
nativ& believed that the steel piers
supporting the bridges were resting on
the dragons tail and holding the sa-
cred beast a prisoner to the indigna ton
OF Laotien the. god Of rain.
I'VE are not afraid of our officials. f"
said the natives, because they are of
our own land and because We belong
to the big knife society but we do fear
these foreigners, who are in daily COM
munication with Laotien."

Building Trades
Council Offers
A Large Reward

o. A. Tveitmoe, secretary Of
the state building trades council,
issued the following statement
yesterday:
Having learned from the press
dispatches of the horrible ca
tastrophe that has overtaken the
Los Angeles Times, and having
also noticed from some dispatches
that the old time enemy of or
ganized labor is trying to place
the blame for the disaster on the
trades union movement. 1, as
president OF the general cam
paign strike committee and gen
eral secretary of this council
hereby offer reward of seven
thousand five hundred dollars
$4,000 for the arrest and con-
viction Of the perpetrators of the
outrage. Five thousand dollars
of this amount is offered by the
state building trades council of
California and two thousand five
hundred dollars ($2,500) is Of
fered by the general campaign
strike committee.
Whether the disaster resulted
from natural causes or criminal
efforts, l do not know; but 1 do
know that the trades union or
CARNATIONS of California will do
everything within their power in
order to get down to the very
bottom of this deplorable affair.
The general campaign strike
committee, which meets this aft
ernoon, will, a insure, concur in
my sentiments, and the Califor-
MIA state labor convention, which
convenes next Monday In Los
Angeles, will undoubtedly take
decisive and definite action in
this matter. But regardless of
whatever these bodies may do.
the offer hereby made in the
amount of $500 for the appre-
hension and conviction of these
dynamitres, if dynamfters they
be, will stand ready and avail

PROTEST AROUSED
BY OCEAN SHORE
Property Owners to File Peti-
ton Protesting Against the
Franchise Renewal

Many residents and property owners
OF oceanside are signing a petition
which will be presented to the board Of
supervisors tomorrow asking that the
application of the Ocean Shore railroad
for an extension of time on its Sunset
and Richmond franchise be denied The
franchise will expire October 5. The
company has asked for an extension Of
FIVE years
The arguments made are that the op-
Grafton of such a road would depreciate
the value OF residence property; that
1t would be inadequate for local traffic
that it would endanger the operation
or the municipality owned Geary street
road. and that the Ocean Shore has
centrally located terminal in the heart
of the city. making a Richmond district
terminal unnecessary
1t is urged that the company is not
in as good financial condition as it
was five years ago and would be less
able at present to guarantee the con-
struction of a railroad over the fran
chise were the time extended. The pos
sibility of holding the 1915 worlds

reason for forbidding the Ocean
Shore to lay tracks through a portion
of the territory in which IL is planned
