Los Angeles. Nov. 2.-Socialism
showed remarkable strength in the
municipal primary yesterday. and as a
result Job Hartman, candidate on the
socialist ticket, will contest in the COM
ing election with George Alexander, re-
publican, backed by the Good Govern
mcnt league, for mayor of Los Angeles
for the next two years.
Hartman is one OF the leading So
cialists of the Pacific coast. He is a
lawyer by profession. and is associate
counsel for the Mcnamara brothers. one
of whom is now on trial TOR alleged
completely in blowing up the Los An
geles Times building.
Much Outside Help.
Is his campaign Hartman not only
had the solid support Of the local labor
unions and socialists, but be has had
much outside help. Ever since the Nc
Namara arrest, the cry of carry Cali
fornia for socialism has been the slo-
gan of several socialist papers of ma
tional circulation, and for months a
most vigorous propaganda has beer
waged in this state, particularly in Los
Angeles.

WANTS P0STMEN RAISED
Ayres Puts in Bill for Carriers
and Clerks in Cities.
From The Tribune Bureau !

Washington. July 31.-Representative
duced to-day bill providing for the
esta blishment Of two new grades Of mail
carriers and clerks in cities of more than
million population. In effect this
measure would make possible the promo
ton on merit of mail carriers and clerks
TO grades carrying advances of 500 and
5000 in the compensation respectively.
Mr.. Ayres contends that. in view OF
the fact that the cost Of living Is mate
rally greater in the larger cities and
of the further fact that the profit from
the mails is far greater IN these than
in smaller towns or on rural routs. which
generally show a deficit, his measure ia
only just The compensation Of rural
carriers is soon to be increased, and Mr..
Ayres suggests that the postal employees
in the large cities should receive some
share Of the profits for which they are
indirectly responsible. He shows that
the cost of operation in New York is
1912 per cent of the receipts; in Chi
cago 1851, and in Philadelphia 2113.
In view Of the fact that Mr.. Ayres Is
a new member and that the great ma
ioritv of the House is more interested
in the compensation Of postal employees
in small towns and on rural routes he
will doubtless encounter much difficulty
in obtaining the adoption Of this bill.
