ATTORNEYS BEGIN
BATTLE FOR LAND
Arguments Opened on Demurrer
in Case Against Railroad
in San Joaquin
GOVERNMENT IS INTERESTED
Special Representative from De
partment of Justice Attends
Circuit Court Session
An action which Involves control of
more than $50,000,000 worth-of lands
in the San Joaquin valley was begun
yesterday in the United States circuit
cotert bofore Judge Erekine M. Rosa
arguments being heard on tho demur
rer of the Southern Pacific company.
The case is that tiled recent y by
George D. Robertson, a wealthy oil
operator of Los Angeles, and others
in which it is sought to wrest from the
Southern Pacific and allied corpora
tions lands which are said to be j min
eral-bearing and which are held by
them under virtue of a grant from
congress in 1866, allowing them .to take
every alternate section of land within
twenty miles of their- right of way for
agricultural purposes, the grant speci
fying that title to lunda so taken up
should be vested in tho corporations
for agricultural purposes alone.
CLAIMS UNDER MINING LAWS
Robertson and his associate claim
title to the property through locations
under the placer mining lawn, giving
them the right to drill for oil on the
lands involved. They seek to have the
railroad company's grant forfeited on
the ground that the lands are mineral
bearing and not solely agricultural.
Much of the land is now held by the
Kern Trading and Oil company, which
is made a co-defendant In the action
brought- against the Southern Pacific,
nnd the relation of the Kern conjpuny
to tho railroad company is one of the
issues to be decided in tho case.
The first move was the introduction
by the Southern Pacific some time ago
of a demurrer to the complaint, and
yesterday was confined to arguments
on it. Both sides in the case, as well
as the government, are represented by
an array of legal talent.
Willis N. Mills of Washington, D. C.
special assistant to the United States
iittorney general, is attending the
hearings with a 3tenographer to as
certain the rights of the government
in the controversy.

EDUCATION BOARD SETS
ITS FACE AGAINST BONDS
Cigarettes Are Barred in Civil
Service Rooms—Bill for
$10 Turned Down
That the majority of tlio board of educa
tion at this time do not favor the Issuance
of bonds for the building of new city
schools but are In favor of putting up tem
porary structures to relieve congestion was
apparent from a general discussion at their
regular monthly meeting last night.
"We havo had enough of this bonding
business," said H. W. Frank, one of the
board members at the- meeting. "1 move
that the superintendent of schools be or
dered to prepare a statement of Just how
many pupils there are In each class room
In the city that will always be at hand so
that ihis board may be Informed as to the
comlltlon iff affairs among the pupils.
"If more buildings are •needed." contin
ued Mr. Frank, "we should put up tem
porary structures to uccommodato the over
flow and not substantial buildings that
would necessitate the Issuing of more
bonds."
At the conclusion of the meeting J. H.
Francis, superintendent of schools, was
closeted with the board members for some
time. It Is purmlsed that the bond matter
was discussed.
Tho civil service commission must put a
stop to the smoking of cigarettes In the ex
amination rotimn in the Grand avenue gram
mar school or be ousted by the board of
education, according to action taken at the
meeting last night.
Arthur Haas told the board of the crowded
condition of tho I .oreta school and said his
children were forced to use the Pacific
Electric right of way because of the crude
condition of Cypress avenue. Ho said there
were now 200 school children in that vicin
ity and petitioned tho board for a school
Dulltling.
The board refused to pay a bill for 110
presented by the California hospital for the
treatment of Jack MoClure, a Polytechnic
high school student who lost two fingers
while working at the carpenter's trade In
the manual training department. McClure,
the board ascertained, used a machine with
out the authority of his instructor.
AGED RANCHER FALLS FROM

COUNCIL AND SCHOOL BOARD
AT ODDS OVER ASSESSMENT
Two propositions are presented to the coun
cil by the board of public works that will bo
coldly received today. They are for appro
priations from the general expense fund for
improvement assessments against school
property.
One is for $466.73, the assessment against
school property in the Tenth street sewer dis
trict, and the other Is for $530 assessment
against the improvement of Loreto street.
The council has taken the attitude that the
sohool department can pay Us own assess
ments and the school department has taken
the attitude that It won't do anyhlng of the
kind.
In the long run, It 1b said the property own
ers in the assessment districts where these
controversies have occurred are the real
losers.

NEW CAR ROUTING PLAN
AWAITS ARRIVAL OF STEEL
Los Angeles Railway Corporation
Postpones Work for Week
On account of the fact that some special
steel crossings, which were to havo been in
stalled at Hlxth and Flgucroa streets to ac
commodate narrow-gauge cars at that point,
did not arrive as scheduled, the annnounced
rerouting of the Weßt Second and West
Hlxth street lines of the Los Angeles Rail
way corporation had to be postponed one
wefk. The new routing of the cars, which
will give a belt service and unite the West
Second and West Sixth street lines, will go
Into effect next Sunday.
The peculiar situation of tho tracks at
Sixth nnd Flgueroa streets and tho Jog in
Sixth street at that point made it necessary
to send east and have the required crossing
constructed.
SALOONMEN MUST LEAVE
THREE BUSINESS BLOCKS
Three more blocks In the business district
hay« been closed to liqunr iirmlts by patl
tion. They are Spring, between Third nnd
Fourth; Spring between Fourth and Fifth, and
Main, between Fourth and Fifth.
Ther* are sumo saloons In then blocks now,
and their existence hns given rise to an Inter
esting complication that tho commission will
osk the city attorney to settle
Tho liquor ordinance prohibits the police
commission from Issuing a liquor permit In a
block dosed by petition for two years after
the tiling of the petition. Tho ordinance also
requires that all existing permits shall be rn
j lied July 1 by the police commission, pro
vl<l'"l the place hns been conducted in an or
ilnly a:nl lawful manner.
$10,000 POLICE ESTIMATE

chairman of the council building committee,
has founrl that repairs to the Eastside and
central police stations' heating systems can
be made for $3500. He will ask the council to
appropriate that sum today.
Tha police commission's original estimate
was JIO.OOJ, which was trimmed to *7.'iW by
the finance committee. But the building com
mlttoo demanded that the matter bo placed
in their hnnds, with the result that $4000 hns
b' n deducted. Mr. Whlffen, who is also car
rying the burden of the city hall annex on
hia shoulders, will ask that the extra $4000 be
turned over to the annex appropriation.

To Lower Cost of Living
Housekeepers Will Be Able to Save Heavily
Under the Newberry Plan
Thousands of Women Will Flock to The Newberry
Stores on December First—That's the Report
from All Parts of the City
The Nowberry plan Is already a suc
cess. Women all over Los Angeles
have considered the idea and .given
it their unqualified approval. The
reason for thla lies in the fact that the
new plan means a big saving of money
for every family that takes advantage
of it. In this day when foodstuffs are
so high in price that people are find
ing it hard to live within their in
comes any fair method that guaran
tees a large saving must, inevitably,
be successful.
The Newberry idea is indeed revolu
tionary. There is only one point upon
which no change will be in force. The
Newberry quality will remain just as
it always has been. Only the test of
goods will be handled, just as they al
ways have been :it Newberry's. Oth
erwise methods will change—a change
that will benefit every Newberry cus
tomer after December 1.
A New and Just Credit Plan
The first change will be the doing
nway with old cre-lit methods. Goods
will be sold for cash, and for cash only.
Of course, you can have a charge ac
count at Newberry's if you wish it.
But you must deposit the money in
advance and your purchases, as made,
will be charged against this balance.
Interest will be paid on the money on
deposit—at 4 per cent, figuring on your
average monthly balance. You can
withdraw your funds at any time —
and you need trade at Newberry's just
as much as you wish, and no more.
Everybody with any business ex
perience will realize what a big sav
ing a cash business effects over a
credit business. Credit extended under
Qld methods means a certain percent
age of loss, often a heavy percentage.
Prices of goods have to be figured,
therefore, to cover such a loss. And
whether you pay cash or deal on
credit you pay the credit cost. This is
unfair to many, but old methods have
necessitated it.
Charges for Delivery
Another change that is going into
effect is in the dOiveries. There will
be no more "free delivery." Of course,
as a matter of fact, there never has
been any "free delivery," nor is any
well maintained concern giving "free
delivery."
Delivery in a city as large as Los
Angeles is a tremendous expense. To
meet it the goods offered are priced
accordingly. You do not see what por
tion of the price charged is due to the
delivery expense—but the- charge is
there just the same. For merchants
cannot do business at a loss and still
stay in business. The Newberry plan
will include a fair charge for delivery.
Of course, if you go to the store and
take your goods with you, you will not
have to pay this at all—you will effect
the largest possible saving. If you do
have your goods delivered you will still
save money, for you will be buying at

CITY SCORES IN SUIT
AGAINST CONTRACTORS
Judge Wellborn Rules That Case
Involving Sewer Contract
Be Tried on Merits
After years of litigation tho city yes
terday grained a partial victory over
.Stanshury & Powell, the former outfall
.sewer contractors, in the federal courts
when Judge Wellborn ruled that tho
case would have to bo tried on Its
merits.
Stansbury & Powell were building
the outfall sewer but ran Into some
wet. ground that made the work ex
pensive. They saw not only their
profits molting but realized that they
would lose money if they continued the
contract, and they abandoned it.
The city completed the work under
the direction of the city engineer at a
cost of $281,000 more than the contract
price that Stansbury & Powell were to
receive and sued the contractors to re
cover the extra money.
The contractors took the case into
the federal court on a. claim t.hat the
contract was invalid. They held that
the city had forced them to work their
men only eight hours and pay a m n
imum wage of $2.25 a day. Judge
"Wellborn held that inasmuch as the
contractors had enjoyed the benefits
of the contract without complaint
against its validity they had no right
to make an Issue in the case and that
It would have to be tried on its merits.
Stansbury & Powell were bonded by
the Aetna Indemnity company for'
$141,250, and another suit is in progress
! in the superior court to recover this
I money.
CITY DEPARTMENT MOVES
WHEN RENT IS RAISED
Landlord Boosts the Figure and
Loses Desirable Tenant
Kfifuslng to pay J!™o a month r«it <he
water department has moved Its offices lrom
440 South Hill street to 4M South Hill. Una
change is ma* only until tho new building
for the water department at Fifth ana Olive
is completed. ,
The department felt it was conveniently
situated at Its old location at 440 houth Hill.
It had the entire building, which is two
stories high, and did nut protect very much
on paying $6f.u a month rent for the Place.
Hut the landlord recently fame to thn. ex
clusion that the department should pay an
increase of $350 a month.
But when notice of the raise was served
the water officials began to look around for
new quarters. At K2 South Hill the depart
ment will have only the first floor, but it has
to pay only »4.',0 a month, on a month to
month basis, and the inconvenience Is offset
by the reduction in rent.
LOWEST BID TOO HIGH
The lowest bid, 514,352, for the construction
of a comfort station in Central park is en
tirely too high, In the opinion of the park
commission, and the commission yusteruay
asked the board of public works to do the
work by day labor. The board has agreed,
and will aak the city council for the authority
today. By this method the commission es
timates that the comfort station will cost lan
than J12.000, the amount allowed for the work.
the lowest possible price and lie pay
ing the lowest possible price for de
livery.
Here Are the Charges
On orderg of $3 or under a charge of
15c on each delivery will be made. On
all orders over $3 a charge of 5 per
cent of the price of the goods will be
made. These charges apply to those
portions of the city bounded by Ver
non avenue on the south, Western ave
nue on the west, Avenue 60 on the
north and Evergreen avenue on the
east. In the outlying districts a mini
mum charge of 25c will be made on
deliveries of orders amounting to $3 or
under and on tho.se in excess of this
amount a charge of 7 per cent of the
price of the goods will be made.
Prices Will Save You Money
At the prices Newberry's will be abl«
to quote you will save on your grocery
bill, even though you pay for delivery.
Of course if you order intelligently
and anticipate your needs—buying
goods to the amount of $3 or more at
a time—you will secure the minimum
delivery charge and save more on your
grocery bills than when you buy in
small amounts.
You won't know Newberry's prices
until December 1. We are going to ad
vertise many of them. Thesr prices
will do their own talking. When you
see them you will not hnve the slight
est question in youi mind as to where
it is to your advantage to trade.
Newberry's will have stores all over
Los Angeles. Every section of the city
will have a Newberry Store. You can
imagine what big savings in buying
the Newberry organization can effect
under these conditions.
As it is today Newberry buys goods
in car lots and the cars are shipped
direct to the Newberry warehouse.
There are no large, heavy costs In
handling goods. The middleman Is
practically eliminated. The goods
come from the manufacturer or pro
ducer direct—and you get the advan
tage of saving, up and down the line.
We tell you this just to give you an
idea of what to expect. When you see
the prices and realize they are not
"specials"—but everyday quotations on
standard goods, we won't need to say
another word.
