that Curry lias little following in the
north. On the other hand, it is claimed,
the machine has opposed Curry and
has endeavored to eliminate him from
the race, hut this "opposition" Of the
machine, which the push has permitted
to "leak out" from its caucuses, is
taken with a grain of salt, and many
wise Republicans claim it is a trick
to deceive the voters, some p-o si
as to maintain that both Btanton and
Curry are regular machine candidatesi
There is no question but that this is
true of Stanton, say the Republicans,
hut there Will be some surprise
throughout the state if the machine
mlinits Its indorsement of Curry. Ai
any rate, it is predicted that Stanton
will retire not long after the Inevitable
effacement of Alden Anderson, which Is
declared already decided on. But In

Of Stanton say that if there Ih any
body dropped from the race it will be

Beardslee a Disturbing Element

statp when important Issues have aris

been that the Llncoln-RooseVelt
leagues have stubbornly remained in
tact in almost every section of the
country, and havo faithfully stood
guard over the policies and principles
of the absent leader—Roosevelt the
disintegration of the party would have
j been Inevitable. As it Is .only that ele
ment which sought to undo the work
of Roosevelt, and which Has Insidiously
aimed to steal the control from the re

ties—the reformed Republicans, or

Democracy, The opposing factions of
Republicanism much come under the

Aii example of the support given by I
the non-partisan pn ss of i California to !
the candidacy of Judge Works is found
in an editorial published In the Los

Is unstinted in Us praise of Judge

ns their candidate for United States
senator, th local li uders of the
Lincoln-Roosevelt league havi cer
tainly chosen b very able man,
v horn ALL the people could trusi to
do what lie believed to be right.
But by the selection of Judse
Works to make this raci . the city of
Los Angeles Is . oing to lose one of
the moHt efficient officials it has
had in many years.
Although Judge Works has ' i en
h: office as president of the council
less than tin 1 c- months, he bus done
more to start action toward pro
tecting the interests of the people

By BO lolng ho has impressed the
fact on the people that «Ith him
the reform necea i»ry for good gnv

an<l that it is his Intention to so;;
to It that the corporation receives
no more favors at the hands of the
incil than the private citizen.
He lias shown that he Is not afraid
to try and correct abuses that have
long been allowed to sro unrebuked,
and that it is his intention to Bee
tii.it ALL the citizens get a square
deal.
Now, while these tliin": 1 are mnst.
pleasing to tin- people in general,
they are most displeasing; to tho ■
Interests that have, to a certain ex
