LEAGUE SURE TO
BACK WOOLWINE
G. 0. P. Leader Says Democratic
Candidate for Dist. Atty.
Won't Be Ousted
PARTY LINES ARE IGNORED
Rank and File of Lincoln-Roose
velt Organization Will
Brook No Split
"Tliomas Lee Woolwine, the Demo
cratic candidate for district attorney,
will get the Lincoln-Roosevelt league
vote regardless of what other candi
date may be placed in the field against
So stated a prominent loader of the
Lincoln-Roosevelt Republican league
yesterday afternoon. Continuing, "c
Stiici *
"I understand there has boon some
talk of the league Indorsing another
candidate to run against Mr. Woolwine.
If this is true, and no doubt there are
one or two so-called leaders in the
league who would prefer to see a league
Republican placed in opposition to Mr.
Fredericks, it will not in the least at
fect the sentiment of the rank and We
of the league's membership toward Mr.
Woolwine.
"Our principles and platform are Rood
government. Party lines cannot be al
lowed to enter into our battle in this
county. It is a tight of the people
against the machine, against gratt and
corruption and pernicious politics, and
we will have to make the fight along
good government lines if we succeed.
Leave it for the machine to adhere to
the old motto of partisanship. Such a
movement as ours can only be con
ducted along good government lines,
which perforce are non-partisan, plac
ing the man above the office, the prin
ciple above the party.
"If we do this the league cannot for
a moment afford to lessen the chances
of Mr. Woolwine, nor can it afford to
enhance the campaign of District At
torney Fredericks by dividing his op
position.
"Two men in the Held against Mr.
Fredericks will elect him. We must not
make the mistake of thinking that
Fredericks Is a weak candidate. We
must remember that he has a powerful
political machine behind him; that he
is thoroughly entrenched in an office
whose political patronage assures him
of strong support. We must remember,
too, that he is making a strong light.
ONLY ONE COURSE
"The league may Indorse and nom
inate another good government candi
date, who may be a strong league mem
ber, but I am satisfied the league can
not nominate him, neither could it elect
him if he were nominated. I believe
there is only one man in Los Angeles
county who can defeat Mr. Fredericks,
and that man is Thomas Lee Woolwine.
This Is not because Mr. Woolwine is
the only man who would make a good
district attorney, but because Fred
ericks knows and fears him.
"Woolwine knows the ropes. He was
a power in the recent Good Government
municipal campaign, and he did as
much as any other one man to elect our
present Good Government administra
tion, composed largely of Lincoln-
Roosevelt adherents.
"Although a Democrat, Mr. Woolwine
did not hesitate to work for the elec
tion of these Good Government Repub
licans. His platform and his principles
were Good Government 'then, and they
are good government now, regardless
of partisanship. He is a Good Govern
ment candidate more, perhaps, than a
Democratic candidate. He was city
prosecutor under Mr. Fredericks, and
in that capacity accumulated fa^s
which will prove formidable in this
campaign. He can defeat Mr. Fred
ericks. The league can put up no man
that could. Of, this I am confident.
"If we indorse another man, and he
Is a Good Government man, It may
cause the Good Government organiza
tion, when it draws up its ticket, com
posed both of Democrats and Republi
cans, to have to Inrorse both Mr. Fred
ericks' opponents, because they may
both be Good Government men. This
will Insure the election of Mr. Fred
ericks.
CAN'T ATFORD SPLIT
"The league cannot afford to precipi
tate a factional flght in the Good Gov
ernment organization, and as the Good
Government organization is composed
of leaders and members of both the
Democrat.it. party and the Lincoln-
Ilosevelt league this is what would
happen.
"The league must remember that its
rank and tile constitute a large portion
of the Good Government organization.
And we must all bear in mind that al
though indorsed by the Democratic
party, Mr. Woolwine in every sense is
the Good Government candidate for
district attorney. Being a Democrat,
the Democratic party was able to in
dorse Mr. Wooiwlne, and this was done,
lie it said, to the credit of the Demo
crats, without delay or without the
slightest hesitency. It was an honor
they should all feel pioud of.
"Unfortunately, under the direct
primary law, the Lincoln-Roosevelt
league, as a Republican organization,
cannot indorse Mr. Wooiwlne, because
he is a Democrat, but the least and the
most they can do is to leave a blank on
their ticket so that we of the league
who desire to vote for Mr. Woolwln< —
and there are thousands of us who do
—can write Mr. Woolwlne'a name on
the league ticket.
"This much we owne to the Good
Government organization, and to the
decent citizenship and taxpayers of
Los Angeles, and this much, I believe,
the league will do without serious op
position.
"Say for me that I believe this talk
about the league indorsing another
candidate is all tommy rot, and that it
has no substantial foundation.
"Mr. Woolwine will be our next dis
trict attorney."

action upon the part of communities,
clubs and all other organizations and
bodies represented to push their fa
vorite's candidacy to the utmost. Past
affairs point out steps for the future.
The city which wishes to establish a

coming out victorious cannot be mea
sured in dollars and cents.
DISTRICTS IN COMPARISON
Thousands of people are watching
this contest. Some have a friend tak
ing part; others have become Interest
ed as spectators only. Throughout, it
has been keen competition among
clever people. Various cities have
held the lead at different times. Los
Angeles occupied first place until Pasa
dena wrested the honor away. A sec
ond time Los Angeles reached the top
but the suburban territory got ahead
this time. Then Bakersfleld took the
lead and still holds It, with Ocean
Park, Venice and Santa Monica get
ting ready to "have and hold" first
place.
LARGE ORGANIZATIONS REPRESENTED
This seesawing has aroused excite
ment and the air is full of questions
as to what will happen next, who will
be the next leader of all. Every can
didate is, of course, anxious to secure
the $5300 home and many are repre
senting large organizations and associ
ations desirioua of getting this mag
nificent prize. Then again, there are
individuals who are determined to get
The Herald's home. The prize is for
the man, woman or child who casts the
greatest number of votes; The Herald
has, and 'can have, no favorites. It
goes for votes, so the candidate, wheth
er representing a city, a club, organi
zation or himself, who campaigns the
hardest and makes his or her total the
largest will get the home.
NUMEROUS PRIZES
This is not the only award, however.
There Is a $3380 Knox tourabout—

BATTLE TO THE SWIFT
Many of these prizes will go for
ridicuously small totals unless either
present leaders realize very shortly the
necessity for using every moment be
tween now and the close of the con
test. Tomorrow's issue will show just
what total is leading for each and
every prize and, further, what every
total represents under the present vote
schedule. A reduction of five votes
per dollar in new subscription pay
ments and ten votes per dollar in old
subscription payments will occur to
morrow evening so all business pos
sible should be turned into the con
test department or mailed before 10

ITALIAN MINISTER REVIVES
'FESTIVAL OF THE TREES'
Great Harm Done by Destruction
of the Forests
ROME, June 9.—Slgnor Credaro, the
now minister of education, has issued
:i circular to the prefects and school
masters throughout Italy drawing their
attention to the desirability of cele
brating anew that "Festival of Trees,"
Which was originated years ago by one
of his predecessors, Professor Baccelll,
but which has latterly fallen into dis
use.
The minister urges the municipal
authorities to co-operate In this good
■work, and promises plant!, pecuniary
subsidies and prizes for those who un
dertake it. Thus, the pleasing spec
tacle of school children planting trees
will be revived, and something will be
done to realize the picture of a well
afforested Italy, drawn by Virgil in
the second "Georgia"
The mania for cutting down trees
has done great harm to the climate in
many places of Italy, while there are
numerous beautiful spots In the Abruz
zl, such as Scanno, which would make
ideal summer residences had they but
shade.
