CORONER'S OFFICE
PUSH STRONGHOLD
Expose Proves S. P. Bosses Fin
ancially interested in Un
dertaking Business
One of the most Important contests"
Involved in th© Republican primary
election is that for the coroner's office.
The Herald has repeatedly exposed the
system of Coroner Calvin Hartwell in
directing the bulk of the business from
the coroner's office to the undertaking
firm in which Walter Parker and other
Southern Pacific politicians are finan
cially interested. It is to these men
that Hartwell owes his appointment as
coroner, and to these men he Is now
looking for his renominatlon in return
for what he has done for them as a
coroner, by giving the coroner's busi
ness to the undertaking firm in which,
they are stockholders. These men art
also looking to Hartwell to defeat Dr.
Shlrwin Gibbons, the good government
Republican candidate, indorsed by tin
Lincoln-Roosevelt league, and are aid
ing Hartwell all they can, because they
can rely on Hartwell.
Dr." Shirwin Gibbons, Hartwell'a op
ponent for the Republican nomination,
is one of the best known physicians in
the county—a man who stands ex
ceptionally high in his profession and
who has had years of experience. It
is obviously to the advantage of the
taxpayers to have a physician in the
coroner's office, and much more effi
cient service can be obtained from a
physician than from a layman In the
handling of the fatalities which this
office is called upon to investigate and
determine.
GIBBONS PROMISES RKFOKMB
Dr. Gibbons has made his campaign
for the Republican nomination on a
platform that appeals to every fair
minded citizen and has made him a
host of friends among the undertakers,
who are especially interested in his
fight because they say Hartwell ha*
grossly discriminated against them In
the disposition of the coroner cases,
which he has given to the Walter
Parker undertaking establishment, and
to one other firm. Dr. Gibbons has
promised to establish a number of re
forms in the coroner's office if he Is
nominated, one of which will bo to dis
tribute the coroner cases on the rota
tion basis.
Dr. Gibbons has been a practising
physician here for a number of years,
and has boen prominently identified
with the good government crusade in
the Republican party. A vote for Dr.
Gibbons today will contribute to one
of the strongest blows possible at tho
Walter Parker machine, which re
ceives much of Its sustenance from
the coroner's office. If Dr. Gibbons is
nominated and elected for this office
the present abuses which have charac
terized the system now in vogue there
will his friends say, be speedily reme
died, and Los Angeles county will have
one of the beat possible coroners.
Mayor George Alexander yesterday
issued the following statement, urging
the Republicans of Los Angeles county
to nominate him:
"To the voters of Los Angeles: I
heartily indorse the candidacy of Dr.
Shirwin Gibbons for the Republican,
nomination for coroner of this county.
Dr. Gibbons is an active, energetic
Republican of the progressive type.
As a member of the. city board of
health he has given much of his time
to the improvement of health condi
tions in the city. He is an honest, cap
able man, and I believe he will make
a splendid coroner.
"GEORGE ALEXANDER."
MOTHER AND DAUGHTER
CONFESS THEFT IN STORE
Mrs. V. V. Wilson and daughter,
Vera Culen, aged 16, recent arrivals
in Los Angeles from Salt Lake City,
were arrested yesterday afternoon by
B W. Lewis, manager in a Broadway
department Btore, as they were leav
ing the place, taking with them a pink
silk gown which the elder woman had
stolen from one of the departments.
The gown was being carried by the
girl. A search of their large hand
bags disclosed many articles of Jewelry
and silk goods, which they admitted
stealing. . . .
The women signed confessions in
which they told of the theft of the silk
dress. The elder woman took the dress
off the counter, placed it under her
coat and walked into a dressing room.
Her daughter followed her and took
possession of the pilfered gown. Im
mediately following their entry into
the dressing room the clerk missed the
e°MrH Wilson was taken to the city
lall and booked on a petty larceny
charge, while the daughter was taken
to the county jail and later trans
ferred to the detention home. Her
case will be disposed of in the Juvenile
court.

BIXBY ATTEMPTS
NEW EXPLANATION
Chairman of Highway Commis
sion Tells Supervisors About
Demand for an Inquiry
CRITICISM OF COMMITTEE
Reply Does Not Cast Light on the
Reason for Official's Par
tisan Alignment
George H. Bixby, as chairman of the
Lob Angeles highway commission, ap
peared before the county supervisors
yesterday and submitted a statement
In which he attempted to explain what
he had previously "explained" in a
communication to the Investigation
committee.
Mr. Blxby, in his previous letter to
the committee, made the following
surprising admissions:
"I accepted reappointment on the
commission and "was chosen chairman.
I freely admit that this action in
volved me at once in partisan align
ment with the faction of my party
represented by the majority of mem
bers of the board and opposed by the
so-called Lincoln-Roosevelt or reform
faction."
Again, further on, he said:
"So I saw nothing particularly ter
rifying and took it under a pledge of
division of partisan spoils—hardly, nor
could I believe that my colleagues did,
now that I know them so ij»pll."
Again, in a reference to" Captain
Manning, he said:
"He (meaning Manning) does not
belong to that clique or faction In the
board which we aliened ourselves with
when we took office."
LETTER TO SUPERVISORS
Mr. Bixby in his communication to
the supervisors yesterday admits the
first paragraph, quoted above, but de
clares that the sentence, "So I saw
nothing particularly terrifying," etc.,
was intended to mean that there was
no "deal" involved in his appointment.
Mr. Bixby severely criticises the ad
visory committee for making public
its reply to his communication, and
says "It acted in questionable taste,
to say the least." He adds that "the
investigation committee has been Im
posed on," because the advisory com
mittee has dared to demand that the
inquiry be conducted openly and
above-board, and has requested that
the fullest publicity be given to the
facts involved in the highway scandal.
Mr. Bixby did not explain why .to
accepted partisan alignment witn
"Tvs" Eldridge, Nollls and McCabe.
Mr. Bixby's reply would indicate that
Mr. Bixby said about everything the
advisory committee says he said, only
"explaining" that come of the things
ho said he did not intend to say, and
others he did not mean to say, al
though he said them.

BOY UNDER ARREST TELLS
POLICE BURGLARY PLANS
Admits Forming Scheme to Rob
Hardware Establishment
As a result of a confession made by
a 13-year-old lad who refused to be
come a burglar, Frank Mitas, aged 14,
living with his parents on Boyle ave
nue near San Pedro street, was taken
into custody last night by Detectives
Zlegler and Ingram, who charge him
with being the leader of a gang of
boys who. made several attempts to
burglarize the Western Hardware and
Arms company. He confessed to have
planned a burglary.
The detectives are withholding the
name of the boy who gave out the in
formation which led to the arrest of
Frank Mitas. The lad informed his
employer that Mitas and two other
boys had requested him to "chip in"
some small change so that they could
purchase a steel saw and other bur
glar tools.
The trio informed the lad that they
had made a futile attempt to gain
access to the store of the Western
Hardware and Arms company three
weeks ago, but were unable to open
the skylight through the lack of proper
tools. Last Sunday night they again
attempted to gain entrance through the
skylight, but were frightened away
when a night watchman heard them on
the roof. The band then decided that
they needed another "pal," so they ap
proached the boy and endeavored to
persuade him to join them.
Mitas confessed to planning the
burglary and regards himself as a hero.
He will be held at the detention home
until further investigation is made by
the officers. The police will petition
Judge Wilbur to adjudge the young
prisoner a delinquent.
Thousand Dollars Reward
Is Offered by Democrats
The Los Angeles County Democratic Central Committee of
fers a reward of One Thousand ($1000) Dollars for the arrest
and conviction of any election officer at the primary election of
August 16, 1910, who willfully participate in crediting to one
candidate the votes that have been cast and are intended for an
other. We do this because of information received to the effect
that in certain localities an attempt will be made to write in- on
the Democratic ballot the names of certain Republican candi
dates, and then to count for those Republican candidates more
votes'than actually are cast for them.
(Signed) ALBERT M. NORTON,
Chairman Democratic County Central Committee,
Los Angeles County, California.
LOS ANGELES HERALD: TUESDAY MORNING. AUGUST 16, 1910.
To the Democrats of Los Angeles
County
Democracy will be put to a final test today at the primary
election.
Shall decency and cleanliness in politics triumph over push
machine methods?
Shall a Democratic organization built up to a point of great
efficiency—greater than ever before in the history of Democratic
politics in Los Angeles county—be burdened with Republican
nominees or "push" Democrats on the otherwise cleanest Demo
cratic ticket ever put before the people in this* county?
If we win this time it must be by the strength of the men we
nominate today. All our nominees MUST BE MEN OF THE
HIGHEST TYPE OF CITIZENSHIP. Democrats must see to
this by going to the polls today and voting for the men who have
the stamp of approval given to them by the conference of Demo
crats held at Long Beach, May 27..
All Democrats must vote. Do not stay at home and let the
enemy win. Come out to vote, and come early.
ALBERT M. NORTON,
Chairman Democratic County Central Committee Los Angeles
County."
SPANISH-AMERICANS
READ LEAGUE APPEAL
'Message from Garcia' Contains
Counsel Against Machina
tions of Southern Pacific
"A Message from Garcia" is the title
of a last appeal issued to the voters
of Los Angeles by Alfonso E. Garcia,
president of the Hispano-American
Republican league, yesterday. The
message is as follows:
"To all Hispano-American voters of
the state of California:
"As president of and in behalf of
the Hispano-American Republican
league of California, I desire to urge
upon you the necessity of exercising
your constitutional rights at the pri
mary election to be held next Tuesday,
August 16, that you may free your be
loved state from the political machin
ations of the Southern Pacific railroad
and allied interests, which for many
years have oppressed the masses of cit
izens, politically, giving them little or
no opportunity to be heard in the af
fairs of state.
"California, founded by those of our
own blood, by our grandfathers, who
made laws that were respected—the
state which has given us birth, educa
tion and livelihood, she who to us has
been a mother in whom we take great
pride and for whom we would suffer
much—today appeals to her sons to
release her from the clutches of the
arch-enemy of all communities, the
political machine.
"Let us answer her appeal by rend
ing asunder the bonds which so long
have held her in order that she may
stand foremost in the light of good
government.
"Fight for her. She sorely needs
your help. Put at the helm of the good
ship of state a man like Hiram W.
Johnson, and safely trust to him to
bring about the realization of our fond
est hopes.
"Pail not to go to the polls August
16 and register in unmistakable terms
your protest against a continuance of
the Iniquitous thralldom in which we,
the children of the founders of the
state, long have been held.
"Strike for political liberty by choos
ing as the champion of ouf political
rights Hiram W. Johnson, the greatest
leader the masses of citizens have yet
beheld. ALFONSO E. GARCIA.
"Los Angeles, Aug. 15, 1910."
MOUSER IS CONFIDENT
OF WINNING NOMINATION
Candidate for Secretary of State
Makes Personal Canvass
Frank H. Mouser of Los Angeles,
candidate for secretary of state, re
turned yesterday from a six weeks
campaign trip to San Francisco. Mr.
Mouser has made a personal canvass
throughout the state. While in 3an
Francisco he canvassed the business
section, giving to both the employer
and employe his personal card. He has
been indorsed by a number of well
known business men of this city. Mr.
Mouser says last Thursday he handed
1000 cards to the employes of the Union
Iron works. He says he was intro
duced to an audience last Friday night
of over 4000 people and received a most
enthusiastic reception. He feels con
fident that he will carry both San
Francisco and Los Angeles by a large
vote.
MAYOR URGES SUPPORT OF
HENRY STANLEY BENEDICT

Seventy-second Assembly District:
"I would earnestly urge that you
vote and work for the nomination of
Henry Stanley Benedict as the Repub

bright, active Republican of the pro
gressive type and one who will vote in
the interests of the people of California
every time. GEO. ALEXANDER."

M'DONALD'S ATTEMPTS
AT COERCION FUTILE
Prominent Democrat Sends a
Sharp Reply to Senatorial
Aspirants' Threats
The political bluff of Henry M.
("Muggins") McDonald, the discredited
Democrat who is seeking 1 the nomina
tion for state senator in the thirty
eighth district, has been "called" by
one of the Democratic voters to whom
"Muggins" sent a letter directing his
attention to the fact that he had signed
his nominating petition and therefore
that he is morally bound under the
law to vote for him.
McDonald has gent this kind of bluff
to -every man who signed hla petition,
although It is believed the menace will
be without effect, for nearly every
voter in Los Angeles county has in
telligence enough to know that merely
because he signs a nominating pe
tition he is not legally bound to vote
for a candidate.
A. B. Boswell, a prominent Demo
crat, has seat tho following self-ex
planatory letter to the strenuous Mc-
Donald, which, however, will have no
effect on him, for a six-mule team
couldn't check Muggins in his political
career:
Henry M. McDonald:
Dear Sir —Some time ago I re
ceived a letter from you thanking
me for signing your nominating
petition, and in which you stated
that as I had signed your petition
I was now morally bound by law
to support you at the coming pri
maries.
In this connection I wish to state
I signed your petition when pre
sented to me by a gentleman I
know, probably with good intent to
support you, but as a free-born
American citizen I reserve the right
to change my mind at any time
upon receiving information which
would lead me to do so, and there
is no law governing my decision.
Your letter requires no answer.
However, knowing that you have
sent these letters broadcast to
• those who signed your petition, it
appears to me that your method of
attempting to obtain votes in this
way is along the lines of coercion,
and many who do not understand
the law would feel that they were
morally bound to support you.
This letter alone would prevent
me from supporting you if nothing
else, and more especially since I
find that a man of Martin Bekln'9
reputation and character is in the
field against you, whom I shall
support. I purpose making this
letter public in order to set myself
right with the regular Democrats
of this county and the central com
mittee of which Mr. Norton ia
chairman, as my sympathy and
support are with the regular Dem
ocratic party.
Yours very respectfully,
A. B. BOSWELL..
BOARD OF SUPERVISORS

S.P. PUSH PLAYS
WITH TWO HANDS
Machine Plans to Win with Either
McDonald, Democrat or
McCartney, Republican
TWAIN AGREEABLE TO BOSSES
Fight in 38th District Assumes an
Added Importance in State
Legislative Contests
The situation fn the Thirty-eighth
senatorial district has assumed a more
than local Importance in Southern
California legislative contests on ac
count of the desperate attempts made
by the S. P. machine to defeat both
Hewitt and Sanders, Republicans, and
Bekins, the Democrat, and thus to ad
vance the Interests of McCartney and
McDonald, between whom the Herrln
crowd have no choice.
The crafty manipulators, whose sole
desire it is to elect men who will do
their bidding-,- are bending every en
ergy to induce the old liners of both
parties to play Into their hands. It
Is ludicrous to see the attempts they
make in their desperation to defeat
the best interests of not only the
Thirty-eighth senatorial district, but
the whole state at large by putting
up McCartney as the Republican and
McDonald as the Democratic senato
rial nominee in this district, and thus
be able at the November election to
sit by and watch Republicans and
Democrats alike search the ticket for
a choice that they will be unable to
make, for these two candidates repre
sent the same standard of subservi
ence to the great master of push poli
tician destiny at San Francisco.
There has thus far been said not
a single word reflecting unfavorably
on the candidacy of Hewitt or Bekins.
On the other hand it seems that there
can be put forth no more urgent rea
sons than have recently appeared- in
the daily press why the voters of the
Thirty-eighth senatorial district should
not register their votes for men whose
standing cannot be questioned and
who if they become the respective
nominees of the Republican and Dem
ocratic parties will make it only a
selection of one good man over an
other to represent this great district
in the November election.
GROCERS FLAY PUSH
At a recent meeting- of the Retail
Grocers' association one speaker sum
med up the situation in these words:
"We are not fighting- pure food regu
lations; on the other hand we are
heartily in favor of throwing safe
guards around the food our people
eat. The enforcement of reasonable
regulations protects us in our en
deavors to supply to the consumer
good, wholesome foodstuffs. We do
resent, however, the peculiar tactics
adopted in the enforcement of the so
called pure food laws now on our
statute books. This seems to be the
sentiment among aH our dealers from
the smallest to the largest. The at
tempts of McCartney to enforce his
measure has been in many cases little
short of a farce, aptly Illustrated by
the remark of one of our magistrates
in a trial before him. He said to the
prosecutor, 'Why don't you go out into
the country and make the farmers put
veils on their fruit trees to keep off
the dust from the highways? You see
there is great danger to the public
health from fruit so exposed on the
trees.'
"In one Instance a can of salmon
was seized in some small stove and,
according to the terms of the McCart
ney measure, It was then and there
opened and one-half taken out and
sent to the state examiner at Sacra
mento. When It reached that official
it was about as odoriferous as Mc-
Cartney's legislative record.
"We have tried to obey so far as
possible the general terms of the law,
but it is impossible to know just what
the standard of purity is' that tho
statute calls for as section 4 of that
act prescribes that the standard of
purity in California shall be that pre
scribed by the United States secretary
of agriculture, and the result is that
whenever one of Prof. Wiley's poison
squad get a bad stomach pain the
secretary decides to change his ideas
of the standard of purity, a»d presto
the California pure food law standard
likewise changes. We are asking, how
ever, for certain amendments to the
law which will fix a standard that can
be depended upon to remain the same
for two days in succession. We want
to see a law adopted that will not only
establish strict sanitary food inspec
tion but also take the enforcement out
of politics."
It will probably be well for the
voters before they cast their ballots to
ask their butchers and their grocery
men what they think of the present
pure food law, and whether or not its
enforcement has been impartial. The
S P. bunch, who have never been
famed as solicitous for the welfare of
the dear people of California, are back
ing McCartney, and did any one ever
hear of this crowd doing anything
beneficial?
HEWITT SUCCESSFUL
The voters will undoubtedly turn out
today and see that such statesmen are
left at home. There Is dissension in
the regular ranks between the McCart
neyites who, under the motto, "The
people be damned," are fighting to
down Sanders, whose only fault in
their eyes Is that he is a regular but
not a Herrin Republican. In the
meantime the Lincoln-Roosevelt candi
date Hewitt, seems to be meeting with
great success in his efforts to beat
both McCartney and Sanders. Sanders
was brought out by certain Republi
cans at a time there was no good gov
ernment candidate against the rotir
lng state senator from the Ihirty-

velt league decided, however, to put
forth a full and complete ticket and
selected one of its very strongest men
to make the race against both Sanders
and McCartney.
The Democrats on their side have as
a candidate in this district Martin
Bekins, whose sincerity of purpose and
uprightness of character leave no

tician who, in the closing days of the
campaign, has been going about shout
ing "perjurer" to every one who since
signing his nomination paper has fore
sworn allegiance to Muggins.
The indications all along the line
point to a sweeping and decisive defeat
for McCartney and a Democratic dis
avowal of McDonald that will make
that politician hie himself back to
"Dear old Broadway," where Tam
many recognizes political genius of his
type.
