THE THIRD IS REBELLIOUS
But Lindley's Friends Swept It
Clean
OTIS' OPPOSITION WAS NIL
The Redoubtable Hervey Carried Every
thing
He Will B» One st tbe Delegates to the St.
Loula Convefltloa from the Sixth Dis
trict Oa vernor Sheldon's Fight
Hervey LI: lley got the real turtle.
. Harrison Gray Otis got the mock.
. " 'Rah for McKinley!"
Hervey Llndley Will be selected as
one of the two delegates to the Repub
lican national convention from this, the
Sixth congressional district at Sacra
rf.ento next Tuesday, and unless a com
bination of which there is at the pres
ent time nothing known is formed, Li
onel A. Sheldon of Pasadena will ac
company hpn to St. Louis as a dele
gate at large. Lindley's battle was
practically wo i yesterday when his sup
porters carried every one of the nine
"/ards of the city, practically without a
ftruggle. Th -re was but one opposi
tion ticker In *he field and that was in
the. Third ward, where Captain John
Cross, the t,,u « commissioner and finan
cial backer foi his nephew, who is the
street iprli kling contractor, sought to
dispute wit 1 the Republican powers
that be avl l o have been for lo these
many year*, past, for supremacy. His
expcrle'nc: cost Captain Cross about
$100 for the printing of tickets and hack
hire and when the ballots had been
counted hi ticket had just 21:2 votes to
422 for the other fellow.
Captain Cross is ambitious. His pre
cinct had ti.rned him down in the Third
ward caucus held at Illinois hall on
Tuesday night which fact did not, how
ever, deter hi* friends from throwing
him Into the breach yesterday as an as
pirant for higher honors. The captain
was under the Impression that he
would mak* a pretty good Los Angeles
representative at St. Louis himself, and
t'vfl it w0... :nat the foundation for ah
t positior ti Harvey Llndley in his own
\ ard was laid.
The only ! allty, by the way, where
t'tts opposlti in found anything like a
responsive ;iord, was In the Sixth
•ward. When he American Protective
association - stronger than anywhere
else in the city.
Here It Wi given out by the primary
manager-, thi the ticket being voted
meant Ct|. ?ross as a district dele
gate and Gov. Sheldon as a delegate at
large. As tbe s was, however, no oppo
sition to th caucus nominees at the
polls, the wa ■•> caucus having on Mon
day night i ' . n entirely In the hands of
Lindley's frlei Js, the sentiment yester
day for Cnv • can be safely set down as
havlntr been anything but genuine.
TIIJE FJI i IT IN THB THIRD
The fight I 'he Third ward yesterday
waxed hot from the time that the polls
opened at nc I until the counting began
a little after . oclock. Each side ac
otises the oth -r with having manipu
la ted votr i - ir. blocks ot five, ten, fifteen
and twenty , s.id the result amply jus
tifies the assertions made all around,
for some of those who voted looked to
be anything but church-goers. Col.
Harrison Gray Otis was something of
a conspicuous figure about the polls. He
assured those to whom he condescended
to bow that he had come out simply as
an onlooker, and not as a participant.
Some of the Llndleyites insist, however,
that the colonel could tell a heap about
the number of men located in certain
grading camps Inside the city limits,
were he at all Inclined to whisper the
facts as they really exist Into the ears
of the eagle bird. The voters from these
same grading camps, which are said to
have cost some one four-bits each, are
stated to have been in reality manipu
lated by the other fellows. In Third
ward Republican political parlance,
they double-shot the turn, playing 'em
both coming and going and winning
at each end.
One of the features of the fight against
Llndley was the following A. P. A. In
structions, which had been secretly pro
mulgated to a favored few:
WHO SHALL RULE?

Both tickets were headed: For presi
dent, William McKinley.
The fight at Sacramento on Tuesday
next will be between Gov. Sheldon and
U. S. Grant as to who should represent
the southern end of the state at St.
Louis as a delegate at large to the Re
publican national convention. Gov.
Sheldon having the power of the Amer
ican Protective association behind him,
may succeed in knocking out the young
man from San Diego. The whole
strength of Hervey Lindley will be
thrown for Sheldon. Yesterday's con
test has once more demonstrated be
yond the shadow of a doubt that Col.
H. G. Otis Is a prophet without honor
In his oven party.
The tickets in each of the nine wards,
with one exception, were headed In the
Interest of William. The Sixth ward
alone split upon the proposition, two
sets of tickets being there voted, both
carrying ihe same names, one being la
bled McKinley and the other contain
ing no presidential preference. There
was no opposition to tho Lindley ticket
in the Second ward, which went through
as a whole as follows:
M. J. Ashmore. F. P. Bandholt, R. N.
Frlck, E. B. Rivers. R. Wernick, F. N.
Townsend, R. Livingston. R. M. Gam

rHH SEVENTY-FOURTH DISTRICT.
In the fourth ward there was no ex
citement whatever, and very little elec
tioneering. There was no opposition to
the regular caucus ticket, which was
adorned with a portrait of William Mc-
Kinley, although several Individuals
were scratched. The only semblance of
a fight was directed against William
Rommel, assistant superintendent of
buildings, a recent proselyte from the
Prohibition party and one of the caucus
nominees. Some of the dyed-in-the-wool
Republicans who believe in a free bal
lot and free drinks thought Brer Rom
mel should be taken on probation
awhile before being made a wheelhorse
of the party. But the ex-Prohibitionist
got there with tho rest of the ticket Just
the same, only fifty ballots out of a total
of 194 being scratched.
The McKinley medicine prescribed ti
the caucus was not swallowed gracefully
by all the voters, some of whom scratched
the name of the Ohio man and substi
tuted that of Reed, Allison or some other
favorite.
At least one-half of the thirty-eight
delegates elected are known to be A. P.
A.'s, and anti-Otis men. On the whole
they may be regarded a Llndley delega
tion. Colonel Otis does not vote in the
fourth ward, so the name of H. Z. 03
--borne was not scratched.
Following is the list of delegates elect
ed In this ward: J. S. Myers, C. Brown,
R. Mercer, D. P. Hatch, W. H. Laws,
C. C. Smith, C. Charnock, S. H. McClung,
A. N. Francisco, Fred C. Gottschalk, P.

C. Mason, A. M. Austin and C. W. Flem
ing.
Sheldon is practically the unanimous
choice of the delegates for delegate-at
large.
The fifth ward had about the quietest
election of all. The polling-place was
under a big pepper tree on the corner
of Figueroaand Washington streets. The
election ofllcers did not have enough
work to keep them busy, so they sat
around and swapped yarns.
There was no opposition to the caucus
ticket, which was voted straight in every
instance, except one, some Individual
having scratched the name of H. J.
Shoulters on one ticket. Ninety-seven
votes were cast.
The ticket elected Is headed by T. W.
Brotherton, the Times' nominee for dis
trict delegate to St. Louis, and as Colonel
Otis lives In tihs ward and voted the
caucus ticket straight, It would seem
that the delegation as constituted Is sat
isfactory to the Otis faction. Neverthe
less, one of the delegates-elect stated
that he considered the majority of the
delegation favorable to Llndley. They
are almost a unit for General Sheldon
for de!egate-at-large, as against Boss
Otis' candidate, Ulysses S. Grant.
T. W. Brotherton stated that he was
not a candidate for district delegate, as
business engagements would make It im
possible for him to attend either the Sac
ramento or the St. Louis conventions.
Although the name of William McKin
ley at the head of the ticket as the choice
of the Republicans of the fifth ward
for president, was not scratched, some
of the delegates-elect stated that he was
not their first choice, but would follow
Instructions.
Following Is a list of the delegates
elected in the Fifth ward:
T. W. Brotherton, E. F. C. Klokke, A.
C. Shafer, A. B. Cass, J. A. Brown, I.
E. Rank, I. D. Stlne, E. D. Silent, W.
A. Barker, G. S. Dewey, H. M. Lee,
H. J. Shoulters, C. S. Walton, Thomas
Woire, S. T. Kemper, E. R. Smith, L.
H. Valentine.
In the Sixth ward the regular caucus
ticket was the only one in evidence, and
of 200 ballots cast only eleven were
scratched. The A. P. A.'s were in full
control, every man on the caucus tick
et, It is said .being a member of that
order.
An active member of the order who
was at the polls said to a Herald re
porter: "You can put our delegation
down as being solidly for Governor
Sheldon for delegate at large. As for
Llndley and Otis—well, the Republicans
of the Sixth ward are an independent,
manly lot, and yield to no boss dicta
tion. Most of us want McKinley for
president and his name might have been
printed at the head of our caucus tick
el, but when the Otis crowd sent word
around that seemed to us to smack o,{
dictation, Aye demurred, and refused to
pledge our delegates to McKinley.
"No, we are not for Lindley. That
is, our representatives are not pledged
to him, and most of them do not prob
ably favor him personally for delegate
to St. Louis, when we have so many bet
ter men who would represent us more
creditably. The delegation elected to
the district convention today already
lias good men and true selected to rep
resent the Sixtli ward in the Sacramento
convention — men of Intelligence and
sound judgment, who will go unpledged
and can be trusted to do what is best for
the party In selecting delegates to St.
Louis."
John Cross was openly stated to be
the choice of the delegation for district
delegate to St. Louis, but the reporter
was given to understand that If it be
came necessary to make a combination
with the Lindleyltes to insure the elec
tion of Sheldon for delegate at large,
Lindley would be accepted as district
delegate.
Following are the names of the del
egates-elect from the Sixth ward:
W. E. D. Morrison, C. S. Hogan, A.
Henderson, W. L. Bowman, J. F. Boyle,
O. M. Anderson. M. F. Elliott. D. O.
Freeman, E. N. Mathis, B. Smith. C. M.

ringer, J. H. Whitney, William Dodge,
Frank White, H. Lee, O. H. Jones.
The Seventh ward also elected an
unpledged delegation, most of whom are
McKinley men and have a strong pref
erence for Sheldon and Llndley as del
egates to St. Louis. The Otis-Lindley
fight, however, was kept In the back
ground, so as to make it appear that
the delegates shall go Into the district
convention free to act as they deem best
for the party's good.
There was no excitement at the polls
and practically no electioneering.
The caucus ticket was the only one
that materialized, and of the 149 ballots
cast only three were scratched.
A trafficker In votes waited upon one
of the caucus nominees early in the day
and told him he had fourteen votes
which he would deliver at fifty cents
apiece, but as there was no opposition
to the ticket, the aforesaid nominee did
not avail himself of the bargain.
The following twenty-eight delegates
were named to represent the Seventh
ward in the Seventy-fourth assembly
district convention:
G. G. Symms, N. B. Walker, H. L.
Hopkins, M. L. Starin, C. M. Hoff. J.

HOW SHE MAILED THE LETTER
Tried to Place Her Message In a Fire Alarm
Box
An amusing yet serious Incident oc
curred about 2 o'clock yesterday after
noon when the fire department was
called out through the mistake of a wo
man. At that hour a lady stopped In
front of box 157, which Is situated near
the court house, with a letter In her
hand, evidently Intended to be placed in
a mail box.
She examined the red striped box for
an aperture in which to place the mis
sive, but failed to find one. Then her
attention was drawn to the little sheif
or box on the front, in which hung a key.
The alarm box was one of the new kind,
in which the pass key is hung behind
a small plate of glass, which is broken
when an alarm is desired to be sent, the
door unlocked and the hook pulled.
This particular glass had been broken

Becoming satisfied as to the proper

unlocked the box and tried to place the

out, and in a minute or two engine
after engine, hose carts, the hook and

up to the box where she wns standing,
half frightened to death by the dis

In tremulous tones she told her story,

Inclined to laugh. She could not see
the point of the Joke, however, and after
making her explanation walked away
without giving her name. It is safe
to say that the next time she wants to
post a letter she will walk five miles to
the postofflce rather than try the new

HELD ON SUSPICION
A Gang ol Six Known Crooka Who Will Leave
Town
At 5 oclock yesterday afternoon there
was released from the city jail a gang
of six all-around crooks and thieves who
were gathered in by the police detec
tives during the Fiesta week. They went
by the names of McPherson, Wilson, Ed
ward Parker, alias Yellow, a mulatto;
a one-armed crook named Phelps, a Mex
ican or Italian called Mendoza, and an
other young fellow whose cognomen is
unknown, except as the "Kid." All were
considered dangerous characters to be at
large, and were held on suspicion during
the festival.
After having been "mugged" for future
reference, and their descriptions taken
they were allowed to depart, being no
tified to immediately make their absence
evident to the city police.

To De Repeated
The Wild West exhibition, which was
so satisfactorily given at Athletic par';
last Sunday, will be repeated next Sun
day at the urgent request of many who
were unable to attend. Captain Term
and his six expert toreadors will leave
for their Mexican home next week, and
consequently It will be the last oppor
tunity of witnessing this novel sport,
and the entertainment will doubtless
bring together a large crowd of people.
With a better understanding of the
transient nature of the many phys
ical ills which vanish before proper ef
forts—gentle efforts —pleasant efforts—
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge that so many forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a constipated condi
tion of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Pigs, prompt
ly removes. That is why it us the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness, without debilitating the
organs on which it acts.' It is therefore
all important, in order to get its bene
ficial effects, to Dole when you pur
chase, that yon have the genuine article,
which is manufactured by the California
Pig Syrup Co. only, and sold by all rep
utable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, then laxa*
tives or other remedies are not needed.
If afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most skillful
physicians, but if in need of a laxative,
then one should have the best, and with
the well-informed every where, Syrup of
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.

Merit the Only Foundation
to Build Ou
Interview With Prominent Druggist
Upon Two Notable Successes—Pub
lic Warned Against Imitations
There has of late been a kind of moral
wave showing Its influence among our male
population. Many men have realised that
they were smoking and tobacco-spitting
their lives away, and they have preferred
a condition of manly vigor and robust
health. Skinny men have quit smoking
vile cigars; dried-up nicotine soaks have
tired their pipes; hardened old chaws have
spit out their quids, and pallid cigarette
suckers have thrown away the deadly
coffin-tack. Tou can tell them by the new
brightness tn their eyes, the new elasticity
in their step, the fine color In their faces
and the visible Increase in their weight;
not to speak of a new cheerfulness of dis
position which tells that they are enjoying
the good things of life, and If you ask one
of them what did it, he always says: ' It
is No-To-Bac, and I got it at the Owl Drug
Co., No. 320 South Spring St."
An essential in every community Is the
reliable drug store, where nothing is sold
that is not vouched for; where no fatal
mistakes are made. Such a one Is the
well-known establishment mentioned
above—a thoroughly reliable drug store.
The best prescription In the world Is not
of benefit unless properly compounded.
Every day we read in the paper warning
against buying from those who substitute
fakes and imitations for standard prepara
tions because it pays a larger profit.
Accuracy, honesty, wide-awake attention
being the foundation of the success in
the Owl Drug Co., the manager was asked
about th* remarkable boom In the sale or
No-To-Bac.
"My boy." he said to the reporter, "the
success of a preparation lies in what it
does, not what it's advertised to do. Merit
counts, nothing else. You can advertise
from now till doomsday and if the article
does not possess merit it will not achieve
success. That Is why No-To-Bao with com
paratively little advertising has had so re
markable a sale. It cures the tobacco habit
and restores the vital functions. One man
tries it and his success causes others to do
likewise. Just to show you how much faith
can be placed in No-To-Uae's merit, I
need only to mention that the makers, the
Sterling Remedy Co., Chicago, Montreal
and New York, authorize us and cyary
other druggist to sell their preparationa
under absolute guarantee to cure, er re
fund tho purchase money. They know that
any honest man who honestly used No-To-
Bac according to directions will be cured.
"You spoke of preparations," r.aid the
reporter. "What else do they make?
"Cascarets, Candy Cathartic, the ideal
laxative, an elegant preparation, pleasant
to eat, never fail to act. never grip nor
gripe, and cures constipation, no matter
how often other remedies have failed.
Here's a box: try a Casearet tonight. It
they advertise themselves through merit,
they advertise themselvesthrough merit,
and bring big business with them. It will
certainly be to your Interest to write the
Si erling Remedy Co. They will take pleas
ure in sending you their famous booklets
and free samples."
