"I put Kern on tlio stand. I. had
him subpoenaed at the last minute
so he could not get to Fredericks, but
he teemed to have done so. I asked
him it' he had had any conversation
with any one between the time he was
subpoenaed and the time he took tho
stiind. He turned red and pale and
back again and looked at Fredericks.
Finally he said, 'Yes. 1
"I told him to tell what It was
and of what it consisted. He again
korned red and pale in. turn and again
looked aI. Fredericks, who jumped up
and objected to the questions I was
asking Kern. I asked the foreman of
the grand jury to let the jurors vote
as to whether I should continue with
the work, but he denied my request. I
WEI stopped because I was reaching
for Fredericks, who discharged me
from office.
"The grand jurors wanted me put
back, but Frederick! refused. They
wanted him and his deputies put out
of the room, but he said he would
stand upon his legal rights. The jurors
addressed a letter to him, but he still
clung on.
"Walter Parker wan almost con
stantly in the Office of Fredericks while
the grand Jury was in session—Parker,
the man who tried to put through the
river bed franchise steal and who, In
the Hotel Alexandria, tried to bribe
Harry Lelande to sign it. Fredericks
was asked about Parker's being In his
office, and he said: 'Tel, he was there
and he'll be there again.' Later he sent
word to the man who asked him that
he had been in a fit of anger when he
made that remark and 'pk'ase don't
mention it.'
TALKS ABOUT S. I. TOOLS
"Talking about the Southern Pa
cific and its tools, see how the trus
tees of San Pedro tried several times
in a year to give away valuable har
bor frontage and were stopped only
by the tiling of civil suits in the courts.
They did not care fur their reputa
tions. Many men think money is val
ue received for a good name, bat you
cannot get value received for that.
The trustees knew they wore immune
from punishment for trying to give
away the frontaje.
"Consider the county's road bond Is
sue of $3,000,0(K) and what the super
visors did. They tried, at a secret
session, to sell the bonds under mar
ket value at what would have meant
an ultimate loss to the county of $400,
--000. Do you know that the district
attorney Is the legal adviser of the
supervisors and that he must oppose
their actions when he deema them un
just or illegal?
"Fredericks did not do one thing to
stop the supervisors from selling the
bonds and the people had to obtain
an injunction in the courts. Why. in
one of the suits against the supervis
ors, Fredericks even appeared for the
'solid three.'
"If I had been in the office of district
attorney, I'd have had a grand jury
in session In twenty-four hours and
I'd- have found out who was at fault
if the jurors were kept in session
until doomsday!"
Mr. Woolwine then went Into details
of the notorious attempt of a former
city council to stonl the riverbed,
noting that Percy, Hammon, a member
of the city legislative body at that
timer BOW occupies a position as depu
ty district attorney. He also called
attention to the fact that Fredericks
made no effort nt that time to Stop
the attempt at the steal and the no
body was brought to justice. He then
told of an affidavit made by a man
who formerly acted as a detective un
der Fredericks, who went to him with
a card bearing Walter Parker's "O.
K." and was put to work' immediately.
TWO FORGED WILLS
Mr. Woolwine reiterated the accusa
tion he frequently has made In the
campaign to the effect that Fredericks,
who Is charged with the
of folonies, had his attention called to
two forged wills and that all he did
was to suppress the forgeries, cover
the felonies and loot the estate of $12,
--000 by Inveigling two of the heirs to
sign contracts by which they were
to give him 50 per cent of what he
could get for them.
"The records are in the court house,"
declared Mr. Woolwine, "and they will
prove It. And there also is the con
tract In Fredericks' own handwriting
for that fee which Shylock, in his
palmiest days, never would have
taken."
Mr. Woolwine then told of his in
tention, If he is elected to office, of
seeing that the poor man is treated
as well as the capitalist. He declared
his intention of asking the courts to
appoint the best legal counsel in the
county to assist the poor who are
unable to pay for attorneys, an action
which is according to law and which
frequently spursi lawyers on to greater
efforts In behalf of non-paying clients
than for wealthy ones, as an acquittal
is a matter of personal pride.
E. J. Fleming, formerly a deputy
district attorney under Fredericks,
spoke briefly before Mr. Woolwine,
telling of his pleasure to address Pas
adenans because of the strong stand
they take for law and order.
"The thought I want to impress upon
you," said Mr. Fleming, "is that effi
ciency 1b the most Important quality
for a public official, whether he be a
United States senator or a district at
torney.
"I want to show wou two pictures of
district attorneys. One, Folk in St
Louis, who prosecuted the higher ups,
who proved his efficiency as a public
official, was advanced to the position of
governor of Missouri and may go even
higher. The other figure is that of
Jerome of New York. Before he was
chosen as district attorney he had been
a police Judge In the metropolis. After
being elected to the higher office he

Denis' Indorsement of Fredericks
Is Shattered by "Logic Chopper"
A letter written by Georprn .T. Donis Indorsing the candidacy of J. T>.
Frederick! was printed In yesterday's edition of the Times. The letter has
drawn the following pointed roply from a weU known Los Angeles man, who,
for excellent reasons, signs himself merely "X>ogic Chopper."
LOS ANGKLKS, CaL, Oct. 26, 1910.
Editor Herald: In today's ifsue of the Times I Jind a letter indoi
J. D. Fredericks for district attorney of Los Angeles county. It Is I I
by an attorney, one George J. Denis. The letter, judged by it.s grammar and
logic, is scarcely an indorsement of which Fredericks may be proud.
It is hard to determine whether the object of the letter is to inform the
public of the high positions the writer has held and the great men he has
known, or to permit Fredericks to make such use of the letter ;ts he "may
see lit to put it to." As the writer's name is "Denis" (misspelled, I assume,
for Dennis), he is probably Irish, which may account for his Ignorance of
English. This violation of the well known rule against ending a B< n1
with a proposition reminds me of the statement of that rul I by a teacher in
these words: "Never use a preposition to end a sentence with." In the same
tion of that office stands as the most efficient of any of your predecessors."
tlon of that offie stands as the most efficient of any of your predecessors."
By the rales of grammar and by logical reasoning that statement makes
Frederick* one of his own predecessors, in other words, Fredericks outdoes
and o'erleaps himself, and I guess that is about it. Tf Mr. Woolwlne was at
one time stenographer in Denis' office, it is evident the employer ought to
have taken lessons in grammar and logic from his stenographer. ■
• Denis reasonß that because the Hon. Henry T. Gage "would not be con
nected with any ra.se thai Involved a dereliction of duty," and because Fred
ericks was connected with Mr. Gage in the King case, therefore Fredericks
is equally innocent. T. question the logic of that conclusion. Jlr. Gage
occupied no official position requiring him to prosecute c. case of forgery.
Fredericks did, and therein 'lies the dereliction on the latter's part.
As the writer says he has "an intimate acquaintance, with Henry Gage"
and as he asserts in the last paragraph of the letter that he does not know
Fredericks, 1 conclude that if he knew I^redericks he might not be so ready
to class him with Mr. Gage, or to absolve him from dereliction of duty.
The exception that Fredericks once kept company with M. Gage does
not prove that old rule that "a man Is known by the company he keeps."
Denis argues that a district attorney is permitted by law to take private
cases. He makes the proviso, however, "that they attend to their official
duties efficiently." That proviso just fits the case and condemns Freder
icks, That is the King ease exactly. It was Fredericks' official duty to
prosecute the forgery in that case. Instead of performing that official duty
he took the case as a civil one, used the time, stationery and detectives
belonging to the county for his private gain, and was derelict in duty
to the people, whose paid .servant he was, when he failed to prosecute the
crime. Mr. Denis' name is Dennis, and so will be that of his candidate just
before the ides of November. Selah!
Yours truly,
LOGIC CHOPPER.

Stephen G. Long, nominee for superi

the platforms of the two parties, the
meaning of their similarity and a com
parison of the two candidates. In his
speech Judge Long, who is city attor
ney of Long Beach and known as one
of the most fearless and progressive
leaders of the good government work
in Los Angeles, and also a strong ad
vacate of removing the judiciary from
partisan politics, will show wherein it
was necessary for the Republican, par
ty of California, under its new insur
gent leadership, to copy the Democrat
ic platform and take up the Democratic
reforms so successfully advocated by
Theodore A. Bell.
This, says Judge Long, was done to
prevent the election of Theodore A.
Bell.
Lorin A. Handley, Democratic nom
inee for congress from the Seventh dis
trict, also will address a mass meet

Saturday night there will be a Good

term, the people demurred. He tried
to explain at a mass meting, but the
people would have none of him. His
sins of omission had condemned him
with the people. lie was condemned,
not by what he had done but by what
he had failed to do.
"Judging by what Woolwine has done
In Los Angeles by wiping out the
Harper regime, the most iniquitious
that the city ever has endured, and
bringing Into power the Alexander ad
ministration, tho best that the city
ever has had, he has proved himself
one who will follow In the footsteps
of Folk.
"Though Fredericks may" fool a few
of the people, we say to him: 'Though
you closed a few blind pigs and gam
bling hells in Los Angeles county, you
can't use that to get Into office. We
repudiate you, not because of what
you have done, but becauso of what
you could have done and failed to do.'
"We must condemn his actions in
the Harper regime. The grand jury
would have Indicted Harper and Kern
if Fredericks had advised it to do so.
We might have convicted them but
that they were protected by the high
er ups—the Southern Pacific and its
allies. That's why he did not do it,
in my judgment. In his eight years
in office the solid three have ruined
the court house —three men who have
disgraced their office. What would
Folk have done? And what do you
think that Woolwine would have done
had he been in the office of district
attorney?
"Fredericks twice has gone before
the people and succeeded in having his
office force increased, obtaining depu
ties who receive from $200 to $250 a
month and has had his own salary
raised to $6000 a year. Tlie increase
in his office force was not for the ben
efit of the public. No, he was bene
fltting himself. Ho did not have time
to serve the county himself, as he WU
engaged in private practice. I have
heard him plead in a courtroom for a
fee of $10,000 in a private ea
"Why, when he is given $UO(.O a year,
should he not serve the people who pay
him that? Why should ho mako $30,000
a year? If Roosevelt could examine
Into the records of (Fredericks and
Woolwino he would say that Woolwine
and not Frederick.-! is the man for the

G.O.P. IS COMPARED TO
DR. JEKYL AND MR. HYDE
Stephen G. Long Asserts Repub
licans Merely Imitating
Democratic Policies
Stephen G. Long, city attorney of
Long Beach, delivered the p"rin
clpal address at the mass meeting held
in San Fernando last night. The meet
ing was held in the plaza in front of
the band stand, and other speakers be
sides Judge Long were Lloyd W. Mc-
Atee, Democratic nominee for county
clerk and W. T. Harris, nominee for
sheriff. Judge Long said in part:
"The Republican party realized that
it could not pi-event the election of
Theodore A. Bull, and that Mr. Bell
would carry his agitation to a success
ful issue in this campaign, unless the
Republican party could make the recent
political phenomenon appear to be a
natural evolution, and, regardless of
the psychology of politics, suddenly
become a champion of the same re
forms advocated by the Democrats
four years ago.
"This astounding transformation
took place under the shrewd manage
ment of the wise heads that had pre
viously directed the fight against Mr.
Bell. But this Jekyl-and-Hyde met
amorphosis is merely an imitation.
Theodore A. Bell is the people's candi
date—the man who fought the fight,
and, by every token of truth and sin
cerity, the man who is going to win
It."
Judge Long also spoke on the ne
cessity for keeping the judiciary out
of politics, and said:
"Both parties favor a non-partisan
judiciary, and the selection of judges
for their qualifications, not for their
political affiliations. As was said by
Judge Benjamin P. Bledsoe, one of
the Democratic candidates for justice
of the supreme court, 'A candidate for
a judicial office should have no plat
form save his own record, no policies
save those of the performance of his
judicial duties without fear or favor.'
Voters should advise themselves by
investigating the records and reputa
tions of the Judicial candidates and
cast their votes for the men best qual
ified for the position by reason of
their experience in the practice of the
law and their knowledge of the law,
acquired by education and experi
ence."
FAVOR LUCIUS P. GREEN
FOR JUSTICE OF PEACE
Members of Bar Association In
dorse Good Government
Candidate
To indorse him as the Good Govern
ment candidate for justice of the
peace of Los Angeles township, a
number of the members of the Bar
associates and friends of Lucius P.
Green entertained Mr. Green with a
reception and dinner in the banquet
room of the Hollenbeck hotel last
evening. The gathering was a pre
liminary affair to be followed by an
other at the HollenbeLk next Wednes
day noon, when an organization for
the purpose of furthering Mr. Green's
candidacy and for work on election
day will be completed.
After dinner speeches were made by
Frank L. Miller of the firm of Miller,
Gardner & Miller; D. E. Bowman, G.
T. Sweet, A. M. Strong and Mr. Green.
Mr. Miller acted as toastmaster. The
following resolutions were adopted:
"Whereas, there are numerous can
didates for the office of justice of the
peaco of Los Angeles township, to be
voted for at the election November 8,
and that office is of great importance
to the average citizen, for the reason
that a large portion of the litigation
of our olttsens is handled by the jus
tice's court; and
"Whereas, we have personally known
/Lucius P. Green, Good Government and
Democratic nominee for that office,
for a number of years, and know him
to be well qualified, by education and
temperament, to perform the duties of
a judicial officer;
"Therefore, be it resolved, that we
unanimously Indorse Mr. Green's can—
illdacy for justice of the peace and
highly recommend him to the voters
at the coming election "
BELL ARRIVES IN GOOD
HEALTH AND SPIRITS
Democratic Leader Confident of
Election—Scores Empty Fulfill
ment of Rep. Promises
"My health is finr, my spirits good.
X ;il* fe^l that I slinll be elected."
So spoke Theodore A. Bell, Demo
cratic candidate for governor of Cali
fornia, now in Los Angeles on a tour,
when Interviewed In the parlor of the
Hollenbeck yesterday.
"How do you stand the strain?" was
aske^.
"Just my natural strength, I sup
pose. You know, I was always fond
of athletics.' 1
"In San Francisco you used to do a
great d>al of walking over the hills?"
"Yes. and other outdoor exercise."
As he. stood up at thut moment a
perfect type of physical manhood,
height, 6 feet, l l-n Inches, weight I!' 6,
his Clear complexion and steady gaze
showed that he was In the pink of
condition.
"Feel of that grip," he ventured, ex
tending a hand embodying crushing
strength.
"Mow about the stories of being
broken .jy fatigue?" was suggested.
"Judge for yourself," was his la
conic comment.
"Mr. Bell, why do you think you will
v in this great fight?"
"Because the people are behind the
new awakening of the public con
science. It is the people's fight, not
mine. lam only their standard-bear
er, and if I win the honor is theirs,
for it is the people v.ho are doing it
all."
"Yes, but what seems to bo nearest
their hearts-, and your heart?"
"The people feel that they h:ive not
had a square deal, and look to the
Democrats to bring in the newer, hap
pier day. The Republican party has
been in power a long time and has
promised much, but I say to you the
unrest in our nation is deep and the
people are tired of promises and empty
fulfillment."
Jtt this point Mr. John F. Murray,
secretary of the state Democratic
committee, San Francisco, who was
with Mr. Bell in conference, took up
the talk, Mr. Bell excusing himself.
Mr. .Murray said:
"Mr. Bell has been very busy since
he arrived from the north.
"You can imagine the interest in his
campaign when I tell you that four
of the San Francisco papers have
writers accompanying him."
H. A. Blanchard of San Jose, candi
date for clerk of the supreme court, a
stenographer and lawyer, is with Mr.
Bell on the southern tour.
JOSEPH A. DELGADO OWNER
OF FIRST CALIFORNIA FLAG
In the article on the flag bearing the
facsimile of the original California
state seal which appeared In The Her
ald of Tuesday morning, the name of
the person who had owned the flag for
many years, should have read Joseph
A. Delgado. Mr. Delgado's grand
father, Martin Delgado, was one of
the first three merchants to come to
California from Mexico in 1840 and
was one of twenty-five settlers who
were given land grants by the Mexi
can government ranging from one to
ten thousand acres. Mr. Delgado was
given 10,000 acres. Flour sold at that
time at $40 a sack in American money
and other provisions were on the same
scale. Small schooners plying between
Los Angeles and San Francisco were
fitted with oars to be used to propel
the ships in calm weather.

"modify bit speeches," former s-enator
Foraker has withdrawn from partici

has canceled all his speaking engage

to Liberia to make their future homes.
About 300 families are preparing to

this city, that nearly 1000 families will
Los Angeles lor Liberia and
that about a thousand in and near
Denver will also sail for Africa.
