PROTECTION OF OUR INDUSTRIES James Carson Needham, Republican Candidate for Congress in 11th California District. A NEW RAILROAD COORDINATION FOR THE SOUTHWESTERN FORESTS FOR A GOVERNMENT HELP TO CONSTRUCT THE ROAD IS TO BE IN LAND GRANDE NEW ROAD 2,200 MILES SAID TO MEAN THE OPEN 000 ACRES OF LAND TO PLACING ON THE MARKET FEET OF LUMBER AND MORE THAN 2,000 MILLS AND A SUPPLY OF HI WHICH WOULD PUT THE AMONG THE PRODUCERS' PRODUCTS WHICH THE PACIFIC OCEAN NOW WHERE AT A COST OF THE ROAD IS TO RUN FROM EASTLE, COLO., MONTCLAIR DOWN SOUTHWESTERLY COST IS PUT AT $108 STRUCTION AND EQUIP STUCTION OF SUCH A RING UP OF THAT TERRITORY TO THE GREAT WHICH EVERY CITY IN EVERY INhabitant MULTIVANTAGES. IT MEANS... James Carson Needham, Republican Candidate for Congress in 11th California District. Will, If Elected, Resume His Former Position on Important Committee of Ways and Means. The announcement that Hon. J. C. Needham has consented to become a candidate for the republican nomination for Congress in this, the 11th district has been received by the people generally, of all shades of political opinion, with great interest and satisfaction. Mr. Needham has served in Congress for tourteen years, from March 4, 1899, to March 4, 1913, and he is still in the very prime of life, and the fact that a man of the experience, character and ability of Mr. Needham is willing to again serve them in the house of representatives has caused throughout the district genuine satisfaction. James Carson Needham was born September 17, 1864, in an emigrant wagon at Carson City, Nevada, his parents at the time being on route to California. He has lived all his life in this state; was educated in the public schools and graduated from the University of the Pacific, San Jose, California, and from the law department of the University of Michigan. He was first nominated for Congress in 1898, at Newport Beach, Orange county. The district was then known as the 7th, and comprised twelve counties, including San Diego (Imperial then being a part of San Diego), Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino. The republican party again nominated him in 1900 at Coronado and he was elected by a large majority. He was also elected in 1902, 1904, 1906, 1908, 1910, in the 6th district, but was defeated by a small vote in 1912, in the present 7th district. He is now a resident of San Diego, engaged in the practice of the law, San Diego being the largest city in the territory which he has represented in years and obtained high rank. If re-elected he will, without doubt, be again assigned to this committee. This will be of tremendous advantage to this district, the state and the west, for at the present time there is no member on this committee west of Kansas. This committee has jurisdiction of all revenue and tariff matters, and the industries of this district are such that it is of the highest importance to be represented by one who is a member of this great committee. It is a signal honor for a district to have its representative appointed to this committee. The fact that under the precedents Mr. Needham, if elected to Congress, will be re-assigned to the ways and means committee, led the growers of oranges, lemons, sugar beets, nuts, grapes, and the producers of dairy products, and the like, throughout the district, to solicit Mr. Needham to consent to become a candidate, and after having the matter under consideration for a long time, and after consultation with leading citizens all over the district, he did, a short time since, express a willingness to accept the republican nomination. Thus far he has no opposition for the nomination and it is unlikely that any formidable opposition will develop, as he has already been promised widespread support, many members of political parties other than republican being his staunch supporters. Mr. Needham, while always acting with the republican party, is not a narrow partisan in any sense. He is an enthusiastic supporter of the Young Republican Club movement and predicts for it a great work. Mr. Needham is a good campaigner where at a cost of road is to run from east castle, Colo., Monticello down southwesterly coast is put at $100 struction and equipment structure of such a ring up of that terrific thing to the Great which every city in every inhabitant must vantages. It means congested populations are looking for cheap to establish homes. O CONSIST One of the planks adopted by the Ballot which nominated We the presidency reads "We denounce the offence of the money wrong by oppressive taxation lavish appropriations lican congresses taxes high and reduce power of the people' a return to the simple which befits a dement." Considering that been the most wanton history of the govern faced appropriation than 704 millions millions more than grees was called upon this item in the par principles must have a joke. It will be in how democratic confor re-election ex- lavish appropriation.

Syballa was The republican party again nominated him in 1900 at Coronado and he was elected by a large majority. He was also elected in 1902, 1904, 1906, 1908, 1910, in the 6th district, but was defeated by a small vote in 1912, in the present 7th district. He is now a resident of San Diego, engaged in the practice of the law, San Diego being the largest city in the territory which he has represented in Congress. He has served longer in Congress continuously than any other man from the state of California during its history. Long service and committee assignments are what count in Congress. Mr. Needham, during his service, served on the committees of public lands, Indian affairs, education, insular affairs and ways and means. The ways and means committee is the leading committee of the house, and a place on this committee is sought by all members of Congress. Mr. Needham served on this committee nine CRAZY MAN CAPTURED Frank Donahue, who escaped from the insane asylum at Patton, gave a number of people at Buaro a fright Wednesday. The man was sent to the asylum from Anaheim in December, 1912. He arrived at Buaro Tuesday. When first observed he had a long-bladed knife, with which he cut up Hazard's mail-box. He threatened to use the knife on all who approached him. He declared he was going to blow up all the homes in sight. Constable C. E. Jackson and Deputy A. K. Cravath were notified, and they went to Buaro from Santa Ana. They were told that the insane man was hiding behind the barn at the Lewis home. Jackson found the man standing in front of a box, busily blashing potatoes. Before the man knew it, Jackson seized his arm and got the knife. Donahue was placed in jail at Santa Ana, and will be sent for by the Patton authorities. THE FIRST AUTOMOBILE The first automobile built in America was constructed by Elwood Haynes, of Kokomo, Ind., in 1893-4, and known at that time as the "horseless carriage." This vehicle was equipped with a one-horse power gasoline engine, and the trial trip was made in July 1894, at a speed between six and seven miles per hour. Much comment would be occasioned should this quaint looking carriage appear on the street beside one of the 1914 models of today. This "horseless" position will develop, as he has already been promised widespread support, many members of political parties other than republican being his staunch supporters. Mr. Needham, while always acting with the republican party, is not a narrow partisan in any sense. He is an enthusiastic supporter of the Young Republican Club movement and predicts for it a great work. Mr. Needham is a good campaigner—his long experience in that line makes him formidable upon the stump. He is a student of the tariff question and makes a specialty of this subject in his speeches. His nomination and election are not in doubt—the only question is the size of his majority. This is a republican year, and this district cannot fall to contribute a representative to form a protection majority in the next Congress. To do otherwise would be to violently misrepresent the attitude and true interests of this great protection district. ST.

It was only 20 years ago this month since Mr. Haynes tried out his invention, and little did he dream that in a score of years his production would have entirely revolutionized the mode of transportation in America; and that two states, California and New York, would show a registration of more than 100,000 machines, worth more than $150,000,000 in each of the states. This is certainly a marvelous record and one that will cause the future historian to place the name of Elwood Haynes along with that of Stephenson for his locomotive and Fulton for the steamboat, and Whitney of cotton gin fame. A NEW RAILROAD A new railroad company known as the Southwestern Pacific is moving things for a government subsidy to help construct the road. The subsidy is to be in land grants along a line of new road 2,200 miles in length. It is said to mean the opening up of 4,000-000 acres of land to entry, and also placing on the market 16,000,000,000 feet of lumber and the products of more than 2,000 miles of coal lands, and supply of hematite iron ore which would put the Coast on the map among the producers of steel and iron products which the countries facing the Pacific Ocean now are getting elsewhere at a cost of $350,000,000. The road is to run from Denver via Newcastle, Colo., Monticello, Utah, and on down southwesterly to San Diego. The cost is put at $106,000,000 for construction and equipment. The construction of such a road and the opening up of that territory means everything to the Great Southwest from which every city in the district and every inhabitant must reap large advantages. It means still more to the ABLE DEFENDER OF PEOPLE'S RIGHTS (Continued from page 1) unions hate him. No more calumnious statement was ever made. There is no man in the United States who knows more about both sides of the struggle that ed to the McNamara affair, for instance, than I do, and I do not say this egotistically. I know the laborer's side and I know what the trouble is. It is my one ambition to wipe out the soreness, to end the strife, and to bring labor and capital into an understanding of each other, for there are brains and honesty and integrity upon both sides. And I believe I can do that. I believe I can make the state of California a better place in which to live, and if I didn't think I could help humanity you couldn't pay me $100,000 a month to act as governor." From his speeches delivered thus far in the campaign we could quote at length to show that he is peculiarly qualified for the position of governor and will fill every expectation of his fellow citizens and be loyal to the highest interests of California. Captain Fredericks believes that the fundamental principles of the republican party are the best that have thus far been formulated for the government of this country and that real substantial progress can be achieved through the republican party. As the campaign develops we may expect from Captain Fredericks convincing, clear-cut and forcible expressions upon all the issues before the people. With Captain Fredericks the recognized leader among candidates for governor, Johnson can no longer go up and down the state unchallenged delivering panegyrics on his administration. There are breakers ahead for Johnson and he will never get through them with his present fragile progress. EXAMINATIONS FOR STATE EMPLOYES Kitchen Help and Plumbers Wanted by the Commonwealth The California State Civil Service Commission announces that applications for employment as kitchen help in the service of the state will be received at the office of the Commission, State Capitol, Sacramento, on or before August 8, 1914. The state employs kitchen help in the Agnews, Stockton and Napa state hospitals, the Deaf and Blind Institute in Berkeley, the Sonoma Home, the Veterans' Home, and the California Polytechnic school. Salaries range from $25 to $45 per month, with room and board provided in addition. There are at present six vacancies to be filled; one for a woman at $35 per month, and five for men at from $30 to $35 per month. All citizens of the state, 18 years of age or over on August 8, 1914, who comply with the requirements, are eligible for this examination. Further information and application blanks may be obtained from the State Civil Service Commission, State Capitol, Sacramento. Applications must be properly executed and filed with the commission on or before August 8, 1914. It is announced that applications for employment as plumbers and plumbers' O CONSISTENCY! One of the planks of the platform adopted by the Baltimore convention which nominated Woodrow Wilson for the presidency, reads as follows: "We denounce the profligate waste of the money wrung from the people by oppressive taxation through the lavish appropriations of recent republican congresses, which have kept taxes high and reduced the purchasing power of the people's toll. We demand a return to the simplicity and economy which befits a democratic government." Considering that this congress has been the most wantonly wasteful in the history of the government, and that it faced appropriation bills carrying more than 704 millions of dollars—many millions more than any previous congress was called upon to appropriate—this item in the party's declaration of principles must have been considered a joke. It will be interesting to note how democratic congressmen standing for re-election explain away these "lavish appropriations." WAS TOO EXUBERANT L. Syballa, owner of a pool room near the sugar factory, was fined $10 in Recorder Kenney's court at Fullerton Thursday morning on a charge of disturbing the peace. Marshal French arrested Syballa at 10 o'clock Wednesday night on West Commonwealth avenue near the residence of H. B. Benedict, who had called up the marshal by phone and complained of the Mexican's conduct. A loaded Colts gun of .38 calibre was found in the buggy where the drunken man was located, and his threats had terrorized the neighborhood. He was lodged in jail to sober up over night and appeared duly penitent when brought before the court. Syballa was short of the amount where at a cost of $350,000,000. The road is to run from Denver via New eastleast, Colo., Monticello, Utah, and on down southwesterly to San Diego. The cost is put at $106,000,000 for construction and equipment. The construction of such a road and the opening up of that territory means everything to the Great Southwest from which every city in the district and every inhabitant must reap large advantages. It means still more to the congested populations of the East, who are looking for cheap lands on which to establish homes. Captain Fredericks is essentially a man of the people. He is as familiar with the implements of the farm as with the instruments of the court. When the young republicans looked for him to urge upon him the duty he owned the people and finally won his consent to become a candidate for governor, they did not seek him for they could not have found him in a back room closted with a handful of self-appointed bosses, but they found him working upon the fertile acres of his ranch beneath the broad heavens. Captain Fredericks is submitting his candidacy, in accordance with the law, to the decision of the people; he is going to receive his nomination and election from them. The way in which he entered the campaign, and those to whom he is appealing to decide the contest, form an impressive contrast to the manner in which Hiram W. Johnson and his running mate nominated themselves seven months in advance of the primaries. The alleged progressive leader, with the assistance of two of his subordinate lieutenants, decided the contest in his own favor first and then commanded the president of his railroad commission to run for lieutenant governor. This is a touching instance of Johnson's deep sympathy for the people, as he thus relieved them of the duty and grave responsibility of choosing candidates for governor and lieutenant governor on the alleged progressive ticket. Another very striking contrast between Captain Fredericks and Hiram Johnson may be found in their respective attitudes on woman's suffrage. Before woman's suffrage was a serious political issue in California, Captain Fredericks appointed in his office the first woman deputy district attorney in the world; he made speeches advocating the adoption of Senate Constitutional amendment No. 8 permitting women to vote when Johnson was advocating recalls, initiatives and referenda but observed an impenetrable age or over on August 8, 1914, who comply with the requirements, are eligible for this examination. Further information and application blanks may be obtained from the State Civil Service Commission, State Capitol, Sacramento. Applications must be properly executed and filed with the commission on or before August 8, 1914. It is announced that applications for employment as plumbers and plumbers' helpers in the service of the state will be received at the office of the commission, State Capitol, Sacramento, on or before August 1, 1914. The state employs plumbers in the Veterans' Home, the Preston school, the five state hospital, and the Board of State Harbor Commissioners in San Francisco. Salaries range from $60, with room and board provided in addition, to $125 per month. There is now one vacancy to be filled, at $68 per month and room and board. All citizens of the state, 21 years of age or over on August 1, 1914, who comply with the requirements, are eligible for this examination. Further information and application blanks may be obtained from the State Civil Service Commission, State Capitol, Sacramento. Applications must be properly executed and filed with the commission on or before August 1, 1914. MAKE MANY MATCHES Bids were opened in the office of the district forester at San Francisco last week for the sale of approximately 14,000,000 feet of timber, chiefly sugar pine, on the Plumas national forest near Sterling City, Cal. The sale was awarded to the Diamond Match Company of Chico. Logging will commence immediately and will be conducted in connection with the cutting of adjacent timber owned by the company. The contract runs until November 30, 1915. arrested Syballa at 10 o'clock Wednesday night on West Commonwealth avenue near the residence of H. B. Benedict, who had called up the marshal by phone and complained of the Mexican's conduct. A loaded Colts gun of .38 calibre was found in the buggy where the drunken man was located, and his threats had terrorized the neighborhood. He was lodged in jail to sober up over night and appeared duly penitent when brought before the court. Syballa was short of the amount necessary to settle, but claimed to be the owner of property at Buena Park, besides his pool room business, and was released upon his promise to report later with the money. ST. MICHAEL'S CHURCH Services Sunday, July 12th, the fifth Sunday after Trinity, at St. Michael's Episcopal church, corner of Emily and Adele streets, Rev. David Todd Gillmor, rector, will be: 9:45 A.M., church school and adult Bible classes; 11:00 o'clock, morning prayer and sermon by Rev. H. J. Camp. No evening service during July and August. Thrown Sixty Feet As a young man named Brenner, an employee of the Amalgamated Oil Company, was returning from the celebration at Fullerton to the oil wells on a motorcycle at an estimated speed of 40 miles an hour, Saturday night, he ran into the auto of Steve McCulloch of Placentia just as McCulloch was turning into his home. When the motorcycle struck the car Brenner was thrown 60 feet, rolling over and over several times. He was picked up unconscious and rushed to the Fullerton hospital. He has a fracture of the skull at the base of the brain and is probably fatally injured. Brenner is from Louisiana. tween Captain Fredericks and Hitram Johnson may be found in their respective attitudes on woman's suffrage. Before woman's suffrage was a serious political issue in California, Captain Fredericks appointed in his office the first woman deputy district attorney in the world; he made speeches advocating the adoption of Senate Constitutional amendment No. 8 permitting women to vote when Johnson was advocating recalls, initiatives and referendums but observed an impenetrable silence that no woman could break on the subject of woman's suffrage. The results in the spheres of influence of these two men indicate their distinct attitudes. Los Angeles county, the home of Captain Fredericks, gave woman's suffrage a majority of 5,163; San Francisco county, the home of Governor Johnson, a majority against woman's suffrage of 12,716. In favor of the initiative and referendum, in which Johnson was so interested and in behalf of which he delivered so many eloquent speeches, San Francisco gave a majority of 27,643. In favor of the recall of public officials, which was one of Johnson's pet measures, and to which he loaned all his powerful influence, San Francisco gave a majority of 29,631. Johnson's influence against woman's suffrage was clearly demonstrated and would have defeated it. But Johnson does not believe in woman's suffrage now! He not only does not believe in woman's suffrage, he does not believe in manhood suffrage unless both vote his way; for he disfranchised both the men and women who refused to swallow his recall of judicial decisions, and other socialistic nostrums, when he was running for vice-president in 1912.
