JEFFERSON CLUB

Directors Will Demand Resigna
tion of Secretary Charged
with 'Tammany' Politics
CORRESPONDENCE PUBLISHED
Judge H. C. Dillon Declares, in an
Open Letter, Organiza
tion Will Take Action
T. SHELLEY SUTTON
That Henry M. (Mug-Rlns) McDonald,
secretary of the Loi Angeles Jcffer.son
club, was, requested to resign from
that body 'at Uw meeting of the dub
last Saturday and that he promised to
do So ininiecllatfily after the, AuRUSt
primary (lection but now is endeavor
lhg to place a different construction
on h!.s promise, came to light yesterday
when Judge Henry C. Dillon of the
board of directors of the Jefferson
club, addressed a letter to The Herald
setting forth the tarts In the case and
stating that it is the. Intention of the
directors to take up the question afaltl
and Insist on McDonald's resignation
Immediately.
The Herald Home time ago exposed
the trickery and Tammany methods of
McDonald in his arbitrary campaign
for the state senate from the Thirty
eighth district, where he represented
himself as "tho" Democratic candidate
and endeavored to buy up all the sig
natures in that district for his nom
inating petition in order, to shut out
opposition, although the members of
the Jeffefcon club and other Democrats
of Los Angeles strenuously urged him
to stay out of the race and openly de-
Clared they would not lend their sup
port to any legislative candidate of Mc-
Donald's caliber.
The Herald also was the. first to ex
pose McDonald's false pretensions and
to warn the electors of the Thirty
eighth district that McDonald was re
garded by the members of the Jeffer
son club as a political pretender and
imposter. Subsequently investigation
confirmed the, charge that he was
"pocketing" hundreds of names in the
Thirty-eighth district to prevent an
other candidate from entering the race
agalnit him. This led to an investiga
tion by the officers and members of the
Jefferson club, whose inquiries led to
the request last Saturday that Mc-
Donald tender his resignation.
McDONAMCfS EKFOKTS FOIIJED
The Jefferson club Is one of the
largest Democratic organizations In
the state, maintained for the further
ance of Democratic principles, and has
been one of the most active factors in
ridding the Democratic party of South
ern Pacific and other objectionable In
fluence.
By laying claim to certain political
distinction and by advocating prin
ciples which it has since been learned
he did not really represent, McDonald—
a comparative stranger in the city
slipped into the good graces of several
of the members of the club and wan
elected its secretary, but he was not
allowed to take advantage of this posi
toin to insinuate himself Into the con
fidence of the people, or to use his peti
tion for any political prestige. He was
firmly opposed by nearly all of the
club member! when he entered the race
for the senate and was bitterly con
demned when he scattered his funds so
lavishly to buy up all the electoral sig
natures for his nominating petition, his
tactics bring denounced as pernicious
and "Tammany like."
Various members of the Jefferson
club stated last night that they are
determined McDonald shall not be al
lowed to remain secretary of the club
after the August primaries, and the
news that he is now attempting to mis
construe his promise to resign has
caused considerable indignation.
The sentiment of the club toward
McDonald may be judged from the fact
that nearly all of its members have
been working to secure the nomination
of Martin Beklns, the regular Demo
cratic candidate in the Thirty-eighth
against McDonald.
ii ni.i: DILLON'! I,ETTKK
Following Is Judge Dillon's letter to
The Herald relative to the resignation:
"Ix)s Angeles, Cal., July 15, 1910.
"Editor Herald: Last Saturday at a
meeting of the board of directors of
the Jefferson club, held at the Hollen
beck, Mr. Henry M; McDonald, the
secretary, was requested to resign for
many reasons which were then stated
by me and others. All of the directors
concurred in this, and Mr. McDonald
promised to resign after the August
primary election, at which he appears
us a candidate for state senator from
the Thirty-eighth district. In consid
eration of that promise we nil agreed
to keep the mattter secret in the mean
time. On the following Tuesday, how
ever, Mr. McDonald wrote me the fol
lowing letter:
"Referring to the statement made
by you at the meeting of the board
of directors of the Jefferson club,
held on Saturday, July 9, 1910, to
the effect that I had, us secretary,
intentionally Hubmittted »n incor
recttaceount to the board of direct
ors covering the receipts of the club
from May 4 to June 4, 1910, inclu
sive, thereby conveying the, impu
tation that I intended to defraud
the club, I would state that 1 ask
you to write me a letter withdraw
ing the nbove statement.
"In the event that you do not con
sider it advisable to do as I have
requested, I withdraw the state
ment which I made at the board of
directors meeting of July 9, 'that I
would be inclined to consider favor
ably resigning my position as sec
retary to the club after the August
16 primary.
"You are at liberty, If you desire,
to show this letter to the members
of the board of directors present at
the board meeting of July 9.
"Thin letter is not a correct state
ment of what occurred at the meeting.
The gist of that meeting was that he
was called on to resign for various
reasons that were given nnd discussed.
By this letter Mr. McDonald attempts
to attach ■ new condition to his agree
ment and attempts to narrow the is
sues between himself and the directors,
r cannot yield to the demands of this
letter. He refused to abide by his
promise absolves me from the condi
tion of secrecy. Inasmuch as I con
sider him more objectionable as a sen
ator than secretary, I feel It to be my
duty to make this matter public. Ac
cordtngly, I hand you my reply to his
letter "H. C. DILLON."

DEMOCRATS RUSH
PETITIONS NORTH
Will Be Filed with the Secretary
of State Some Time
. . Today
Following a -whirlwind rush, In
which It is believed all records were
broken in the work of checking up, ar
ranging and tabulating the petitions
of the various legislative candidates of
Los Angelrs county, the task was
completed at 8 o'clock yesterday morn
ing, and at 5 o'clock last night W. W.
Harris, Democratic candidate for sher
iff, deputized as a county clerk to make
the trip post-haste to Sacramento, left
Los Angeles to file the huge stack of
petitions with Secretary of State
Charles F. Curry, according to a de
cision rendered by the appellate court
at the state capital last Wednesday.
The petitions must be filed at Sacra- I
mento, the appellate court declares, by
midnight tonight, or the various candi
dates for the state senate and assem
bly will be disqualified, and their names
cannot go on the primary election bal
lot.
This ruling from the feppellate court
entirely upset the plans of the vari
ous political organizations, both Re
publican and Democratic, and at the
eleventh hour, when the petitions were
ready to be turned in to the county
clerk, they were compelled to go all
over their work again, change their
plans completely, rush the complicated
task of verifying, checking, arranging
and tabulating the numerous petitions,
and get them off on their long trip to
Sacramento in time to be filed by mid
night tonight.
Albeit M. Norton, chairman of the
Los Angeles county Democratic central
committee, di.scusslng the whirlwind
wind-up of the work, said:
NORTON'S STATEMENT
"A great deal of credit must be giv
en to Robert L. Brown, deputy coun
ty clerk In charge of the registration
department, for his quick and efficient
labors. Wad it not been for his stren
uous nctlvity In checking up the peti
tions, which Is a job involving many
more details than the average person
could surmise, we would have been
late with our petitions. Mr. Brown
worked steadily, from 4 o'clock Thurs
day afternoon, when the petitions were
filed with him, until 8 o'clock Friday
morning, when he notified us that the
petitions were ready to be taken to
Sacramento. In the language of the
street, 'that is going some.'
"It has cost us exactly $1140 to cir
culate these petitions, index them ac
cording to law, arranging them alpha
betically and according to precincts,
check them off on the great register
and segregate and number the many
names. In addition to this, It costs
us $305 to file the legislative petitions,
this sum representing the county and
lc-gislative fees.
"If there was anything overlooked by
the framers of the bunglesome botch
known as our state directj primary law,
involving work, nonsense and financial
expenditures, I have failed to dis
cover it. And, at the last moment,
when we were congratulating our
selves that the laborious and costly du
ties imposed by this law had been sat
isfactorily discharged, the appellate
court orders that the petitions shall he
filed at Sacramento, instead of with
the county clerk, which will cost us
about $40 more. • ,
THEY ARE OFF
"Mr. Harris left on the 'Owl' train
this evening, and will reach Sacra
mento in ample time, we hope, to file
the petitions within the time limit Im
posed by the primary, law."
The order of the court of appeals
brought about hurried consultation be
tween Albert M. Norton and Harry E.
Dean, chief verification deputy, neces
sitating a complete change in the plan
for the final days of the campaign.
As the result of a strenuous effort,
nity I have had to reply to your letter
of the 12th lnst. The question whether
you 'intentionally submitted nn In
correct account to the board of direct
ors' was not given the prominence
which you assign to it, but other and •
more important reasons were given
why you ousht to resign.
"The terms which you mado to the
directors to resign after the August
primary election were absolute, and not
as you state, that you 'would be in
clined to consider favorably my resign
ing my position as secretary of the
club. 1 You are now attempting to at
tach a new condition t.> the agreement
and to put an entirely different con
struction on your promise, Accord
ingly 1 do not find It neOMMTy to re
submit this matter to th« directors and
shall make the "hole matter public
"At some future meeting of the board
the question whether you resign or be
removed will come up for discussion.
"H. C. DILLON."
the nominating petitions of all the
members of the assembly, and sena
torial candidates, were completed,
complied, finally scrutinized and su
pervised by Deputy Dean and filed with
th? county clerk In the marvelously
short period of five hours from the
hour of consultation.

THE ORGANIZATION
It Is due to the complete organiza
tion under which Dean has carried on
the work for Chairman Norton that
the decison of the appellate court did
not work complete havoc in the plans
of the office.
In order to carry out the campaign
it was necessary to obtain the Mrvici a
of one capable of thoroughly organiz
ing a large force of deputies into a
perfect working body, and Norton pc -
lected H. E. Dean, who had previously
assumed supervision of the nominating
petition campaign of Thomas Lre
Woolwine, Democratic candidate fin
district attorney of Los Angeles county
—the first county candidate to file a
completed petition with the county
clerk of this county.*
The campaign resulted in approxi
mately 50,000 petitions being signed and
turned in by the small army of veri
fication deputies. These petitions were
submitted to a process of elimination,
so that burdensome bundles of unneces
sary petitions not be unloaded on the
county clerk for cheeking. It Is esti
mated by Dean that each petition in
the segregation, preelncting, office
checking', binding into precincts, super
vision and compilation necessitated be
ing handled not less than forty times
or in the aggregate over 2,000,000 hand
lings. Ip to tliis .late there have been
filed and checked of by the county
clerk, an being .sufficient, every petition
filed by Dean, nmounting to twenty
eight petitions, the remaining petitions
not having been passed on yet, as the
county clerk has ten days to check,
but owing to the fact that the county
petitions are largely the same as the.
petition of I.orin A. llandley. for con
gress, which petition checked with a
comfortable margin, it Is predicted that
every petition tiled by Dean will pass,
and the entire counly. state and ctty
ticket will have complied with the pro
vision of the primary law governing
the placing of the candidate's name on
the ballot.
The Lincoln-Roosevelt and other Re
publicans completed their petition work
Thursday afternoon In time for the
petitions to leave for the north early
yesterday morning., These petltlOUfl
were taken to Sacramento by H. Stan
ley Benedict, also deputized by the
county clerk for this duty. The peti
tions will be filed at Sacramento this
morning.
HOLD ROUSING RALLY
Members of the Llncoln-Roose\, It
league held a rousing meeting at Santa
Monica Thursday night for the purpose
of furthering the Interests of the league
in that section. Addresses were made
by Kemper H. Campbell, secretary of
the league; Frank H. Hutton, Dr. K.
M. Butler, J. H. De La Monte and
others.
SOCIALISTS PLAN
TO BOOST WILSON
Will Hold Mass Meeting at Which
Candidate Will Expound
Theories
Socialists of Los Angeles county are
planning a huge mass meeting to be
held in Union Labor Temple tomorrow
night, at which J. Stitt Wilson, Social
ist candidate for governor, will expound
the issues of the day from a Socialist
standpoint.
Other prominent Socialists who will
address the meeting are Rev. Frank I.
Wheat and Fred C. Wheeler of Los
Angeles.
Mr. Wilson, who is making a vigorous
campaign, which began two weeks ago
when he started out in the "red spe
cial," will go frfcm here to Santa Bar
bara, Fresno and other Northern Cali
fornia points, and it is expected the
red special will have visited every
town in the state before the campaign
is ended.
The Rev. Frank I. Wheat, discussing
the mass meeting to be held tomorrow
night, said:
'■This meeting is going to be one of
the most rousing Socialist rallies ever
held in the city. Mr. Wilson is one of
the best informed and most enthusi
astic Socialists of the country, and is
noted as an orator and thinker.
"The Socialist' prospects this year,
particularly in California, are very en
couraging. We have been winning
votes every day, and the people are
coming to believe that the Socialists
offer the only real remedy for existing
evils.
"The Socialist party is stronger in
California today than it has ever been,
and everywhere it has grown with a
most remarkable rapidity. Everyone
has been keeping a close eye on
Socialist administration at Milwaukee,
and back there they have accomplished
such wonderful results and so thor
oughly exemplified the advantages and
merits of Socialistic measures that the
party is taking in thousands of new re
cruits and is everywhere meeting- with
unusual encouragement.
WILA. TIKN TO SOCIALIKM
"Eventually the people of California
will turn to Socialism for relief from
the present conditions, and when we
are through with this campaign many
of the thinking people of the suite will
know much more about Socialism than
they do now, and will be much more
willing to give it a fair trial, which is
all the Socialists ask for."
J. Stitt Wilson, the principal speaker
at the meeting tomorrow night, aside
from being a Socialist, has some pro
nounced views on the opinion of woman
suffrage. In a statement which he
issued yesterday Mr. Wilson said:
"I stand openly and aggressively for
votes for women. I have done so
through all my public career. And I
Intend to urge it upon the electors
throughout the whole campaign.
"Moreover, I have the unanimous
backing of the whole Socialist party.
The international Socialist party is the
only party which has always made
woman suffrage one of its fundamental
issues.
"It was the Socialist party of Finland
that fought so bravely and won so
dramatically the vote for women. It Is
the Socialist party all over Europe that
is now fighting for universal anil equal
suffrage. It is the Socialist women of
Kngland who have been the backbone
of the militant suffrage movement for
votes for women in Kngland. The So
cialist party of America, of which 1 am
the candidate in tills state, Is making
a special propaganda for woman suiT
rage throughout America.
"On these grounds I am particularly
the logical candidate to receive the un
divided support of the women in this
state election.
"If the woman Suffrage societies want
freedom for women at the ballot box,
but economic slavery for women in the
shop, factory and mill, the candldai
of the old parties will consent to that.
But I never will. 1 will light lor the
political freedom of woman at the polls
and her economic freedom in industry.
Here is the strength <>f our movement,
and the power of its irresistible appeal
to the woman suffragists.
"Whether the woman suffrage move
ment supports my candidacy or'not, I
will make votes for women one of my
main points in the campaign. And If I
am elected governor Of the state 1
shall stump the state witli the hope
that when the constitutional amend
ment is place.l before the electors It
will sweep the state with the required
majority."

poatoffice, sat in the police court of
.fudge Chambers all afternoon yester

for the getting of hia case.
ly.it'' in the afternoon, when it was
concluded that Thompson did not wish
to Face the arrest which would have
followed his appearance, the court ap
pointed 10 o'clock this morning as the
hour at which the matter will be again
taken up and the case set, if Thompson
appears.
The belief nf officials that Thompson
secured bondsmen Thursday night was
dispelled yesterday, for it is certain
that if lie had made arrangements tor
his bond he would have been present
with his wife in Judge Chambers' court.
It is supposed, however, that such ar
rangementa will have been made this
morning by 10 o'clock. Thompson Is
said to be in hiding some place in the
City. His attorney, Frank I'l
seemed quite perturbed yesterda]
ternoon because he did not show up.

officials) feel certain he will appear in
court this morning. If he is arrested
by the local officers before he has pro
vided for the bond he will be subf-ctad
to imprisonment in the city Jail.
