TWO WINNING CANDIDATES
That candidates for county office can do too much campaigning, even though powerful interests move heaven and earth to compass their defeat is illustrated in the triumphant election of W. B. Williams for county clerk and James Sleeper for assessor, who polled more votes at last week's primary election than any other candidate on the ticket for a contested office. These two gentlemen did less campaigning than any candidate before the people. Mr. Williams found it absolutely impossible to leave his office on account of the tremendous amount of work devolving upon him as county clerk, and had to work night and day, Sundays included, to keep up with the herculean task placed upon him. He prepared the great register of more than 21,000 names, compiled the sample ballots, entered the names of all candidates accurately upon the same, and attended to all the other manifold duties devolving upon him. It was a huge task, but he accomplished it with the usual accuracy characteristic of him. He was unable to attend any political meetings and he was compelled to decline many invitations to attend gatherings of a social or political character because he placed his duties to the people above his own private or political interests. He was in this supervisor district only twice during the campaign, and on each of these occasions was here, not as a campaigner for office but in the performance of hisnia. There can be no other interpretation.
While the vote throughout the state was not as heavy as it might have been, it is a certain indication of the trend of popular sentiment. The lines are now drawn, and the battle for the November election now is on. It behooves every Republican who desires to see prosperity and sanity return to California to interest himself in the forthcoming campaign beyond the mere casting of his own vote. It is up to him to take his place in the ranks and help win the battle. Now is the time to close up the ranks and present a solid and determined front to those who for the past four years have sought only their own political and personal aggrandizement and ambition at the sacrifice of the people of the state as a whole.
Fall in and close up.
FOR SUPERIOR JUDGE, ROGER Y. WILLIAMS, ESQ.
Following the primary election at which Roger Y. Williams, Esquire, of Santa Ana qualified as a candidate for superior judge of Orange county at the November election, friends of that gentleman will extend their energies to the utmost to land him a winner for the office to which his attainments and his judicial qualities as a practitioner eminently fit him. Mr. Williams will take the office at a financial loss to himself, for he enjoys the largest legal practice of any attorney in the county. He is not seeking the office in any shape or manner, for the office is seeking him. He is pro-eminently qualified to fulfill the duties of this important office and his friends for more than a year past have asked him to permit the use of his name in the campaign. He has not asked a single voter in the county for his support, nor will he do so in the campaign which will undoubtedly land him in this high and important position.
JAMES C. NEVEN
CONGRESS
The Eleventh Congress will begin in its reelection of Mr. represented this district, and was for 19th of the lower house capital. He was one of the important candidates and means, and rose member of that congress first nominated for old 7th district at convention held at 1897. He represents 4 years in congress redistricting of the Federal census of 1897; the 6th district, which 10 years in congress Federal census of 1897 placed in another trict, which he reprised when by manipulating the progressive made a place up ballot. He made a thorough his district of the overwhelming lation against him few hundred votes.
For more than ten Needham has been change of location in nia, and following Driego county a few quested by citrus growers and sugar beet farmers-electio to congruated without oppose and is now the reason for congress before 11th congressional.
If elected in November his seat upon the floor and means, and who doubt, be chosen in committee. It will ten years to secure committee, and it will
but he accomplished it with the usual accuracy characteristic of him. He was unable to attend any political meetings and he was compelled to decline many invitations to attend gatherings of a social or political character because he placed his duties to the people above his own private or political interests. He was in this supervisor district only twice during the campaign, and on each of these occasions was here, not as a campaigner for office but in the performance of his sworn duty as clerk of the county. Yet he polled 7878 votes, while his opponent, Parke S. Roper, of Santa Ana came far behind with 2387 votes. His majority was 5491, at a primary at which half the registered vote was polled. Had a full vote been polled his majority would probably have exceeded ten thousand. In some of the county precincts Roper failed to receive a single vote. In others up to midnight in the count Williams had received every vote polled, while Roper had not shown up in the struggle: Roper had powerful interests behind him, and he campaigned assiduously throughout the county for weeks before the election, yet he was snowed under to beat the band. What more need be said? All that could have been said in print against Roper was not published, although his political record is somewhat frazzled at the edges.
In the case of Mr. Sleeper, he was unable to leave his office until the board of equalization passed upon his assessments, a few days before the primary election. He was in this city only once campaigning yet he swept the town. He carried every precinct in the county as did also Mr. Williams and in a number of cases his opponent failed to get a single vote. He polled a total of 8418 votes in the county, while his opponent, Ed Vegely polled 1754 votes. His majority was 6664 votes, the largest majority ever received by a candidate in this county. As the result of the contest waged by Vegely and his supporters against Sleeper, Vegely will have strong opposition for city assessor of Santa Ana next year.
These two men are undoubtedly the most capable who ever filled office in this county. They were antagonized by powerful interests which sought to defeat them, yet they left their opponents so far behind that they never figured to any extent in the contest. Of course their success is not due to the fact that they did not appear to torney in the county. He is not seeking the office in any shape or manner, for the office is seeking him. He is pre-eminently qualified to fulfill the duties of this important office and his friends for more than a year past have asked him to permit the use of his name in the campaign. He has not asked a single voter in the county for his support, nor will he do so in the campaign which will undoubtedly land him in this high and important position. He has made a clean and dignified canvass, addressing only one republican meeting during the campaign, and has remained in his office attending to his large legal practice while other candidates have been on the jump, in season and out, professing themselves to be all things to all men, and soliciting support of voters in the highways and byways and slyways of the county. That these men should have secured any considerable number of votes for their candidacy seems to us to be a reproach to the intelligence of the common voter.
Mr. Williams has been a consistent republican since attaining his majority, and he voted the republican ticket when what it now Orange county was rock-ribbed democracy to the core. He declines to turn his political coat, as other men have done time and time again; and it is to him and other republicans who stood manfully by him that the honor of turning repeated defeats into glorious victory for the republican party is largely due. He is the same true-hearted republican today that he was at that time. He has been a wheelhorse in the party's councils, and his voice and pen have always been at the command of the party of protection and prosperity. The only objection made to his candidacy by turncoat politicians of the county, and God knows we have a raft of them, is that he has been first, last and all the time a sturdy, manful and true-hearted republican. His private life is above reproach, he owes no man in the county a dollar, has never defaulted a single cent, and his word is as good as his bond. He is an able and distinguished practitioner at the bar of justice, and is eminently fitted to take a place upon the judicial bench.
We have seen other men aspire to office in one party, and who, when they met and merited defeat abandoned that party and jumped into the ranks of another. Here they began immediately to aspire to public office, and when again meeting with defeat
and sugar beet farm re-election to congress initiated without oppose and is now the reason for congress before 11th congressional session.
If elected in November his seat upon the 2nd means, and when doubt, be chosen committee. It will ten years to secure committee, and it will interests of the trict to have Needle immediately as its member. He was for me the most important grass from California to the undivided surd of the district.
KNOWLAND FOR SENATE
Now that Hon. Jehovah Alameda county feated Samuel M. Francisco, for the nation for United States being made the "polson president" state of California. er offices he is depositionary, in others b a progressive. But that Mr. Knowland dswerving Republican years' service as congress at Washington fought for protecti tries of California foremost leaders att al for free tolls t wise shipping three canal. This is a su terest to California states of the Atlantic all the states of th e When Woodrow Wit ocratic administration to the demands of American coastwise subjected to the seas British or Jananesec land raised his vot test, and while he democratic big s Woodrow Wilson, he in solemn protest to famy of the century next year he will lea this democratic inj ing industry, and d tor of national republic's imminent energies
Vegely and his supporters against Sleeper, Vegely will have strong opposition for city assessor of Santa Ana next year.
These two men are undoubtedly the most capable who ever filled office in this county. They were antagonized by powerful interests which sought to defeat them, yet they left their opponents so far behind that they never figured to any extent in the contest. Of course their success is not due to the fact that they did not overdue the job of campaigning as others have done and probably always will do; but it is because they are the best fitted men for the office. The county is to be congratulated upon the retention of these two capable and efficient men in office.
CLOSE UP THE RANKS
The preliminary fight for the return to a safe and sane government under a republican administration has been fought, and the republican party has won all along the line. The nomination of Capt. John D. Fredericks for Governor now is assured by a plurality of fifty thousand or more over the others who also sought nomination on the republican ticket. With a unanimity which is as patriotic as it is gratifying, these gentlemen immediately wired their congratulations to Fredericks, together with their assurances of support and co-operation for the success of the Republican ticket in the final struggle.
The vote cast at the primaries demonstrates beyond argument that the Republican registration was not of a fictitious or negligible character, but the earnest determination of the same people of the state to return to the principles of their fathers and to wipe out "Johnsonism" and so-called progressivism from the state of California has never defaulted a single cent, and his word is as good as his bond. He is an able and distinguished practitioner at the bar of justice, and is eminently fitted to take a place upon the judicial bench.
We have seen other men aspire to office in one party, and who, when they met and merited defeat abandoned that party and jumped into the ranks of another. Here they began immediately to aspire to public office, and when again meeting with defeat they jumped in and out of political lines, until it would take a Philadelphia lawyer to find out just where they are at. That these men in this day and generation can aspire to high places in the public's favor, and can receive support is a shame and disgrace to the palladium of our liberty. These men are office seekers pure and simple, and will turn their political coat over night to get a vote. That they receive them, as is evidenced from time to time in our political history, is a matter passing strange indeed, to say the least.
Mr. Williams is not of these men. He is a plain, straight-forward republican, ever has been, and so he will continue to be, when all these political side lights and bi-parties are cast into the limbo of forgotten things. He will win the judgeship on his merits as a lawyer, a gentleman and a sturdy republican, first, last and all the time. Will you support him, or give your vote to a political jack-in-the-box who does not know his politics over night?
Vote for Roger Y. Williams, lineal descendant of the revolutionary patriot, and place in office the best qualified man in Orange county for the superior judgeship.
Edward Merritt, who has been working with a surveying force in the north part of the state, is at home again.
Mr. Knowland de Shortridge for the nation for United States majority of more than 70 percent of the state, and that phantomly elected in 1900 plurality over 80 percent of the state is a matter of particle of doubt.

JAMES C. NEEDHAM FOR CONGRESS
The Eleventh California congressional district will be fortunate indeed in its reelection of James C. Needham for congress. Mr. Needham formerly represented this district at Washington, and was for 14 years a member of the lower house at the National capital. He was 9 years a member of the important committee on ways and means, and rose to be the fourth member of that committee. He was first nominated for congress in the 7th district at the congressional convention held at Newport Beach in 1897. He represented the 7th district 4 years in congress, and in the redistricting of the state, following the Federal census of 1900, was taken into the 6th district, which he represented 10 years in congress. Following the Federal census of 1910, his county was placed in another congressional district, which he represented until 1912, when by manipulation on the part of the progressive machine his name was denied a place upon the republican ballot. He made a strong canvass throughout his district, but on account of the overwhelming machine manipulation against him was defeated by a few hundred votes.
For more than ten years past Mr. Needham has been considering a change of location to Southern California, and following his removal to San Diego county a few years ago was requested by citrus growers, without men and sugar beet farmers to stand for re-election to congress. He was nominated without opposition at primaries and is now the republican candidate for congress before the people of the 11th congressional district.
If elected in November he will take his seat upon the committee of ways and means, and will in time, without doubt, be chosen chairman of that committee. It will take a new man ten years to secure a place upon this committee, and it will redound to the
POLITICAL SNAPSHOTS
(By the Innocent Bystander)
Well, the primary election is over and it has definitely decided several things, among which is that the "dry" vote cuts some considerable figure and that it may be manipulated to serve the interests of both sides, a specific case in point being that of County Auditor Lester, from whom was withheld the endorsement of the drys, who freely boosted Lester's opponent, following the example of the wets, a strong faction of which organization fought Lester to a finish.
Lester's troubles were not confined to the wet and dry phase of the situation, for a well-known banker whose call to arms at election time brings to his banner a big majority of the registered voters of the west-of-the river district was in the fight against him and did yoeaman service for Lester's opponent.
Friendship for Treasurer Joplin, between Lester and whom a feud of long standing has existed was the ostensible cause for the aforesaid banker's action, but business reasons are alleged to have been the real motive for seeking to defeat Lester and elect his opponent.
Treasurer Joplin himself played a star part in opposing Lester, for left without opposition to worry him, Joplin devoted all of his spare time to knocking Lester and boosting Jerome, thereby developing a condition without precedent in the history of county politics. And to cap the climax of Lester's handlecaps, lying stories were diligently circulated about him calculated to do him injury, and these were given credence to his political damage.
J. M. Backs, candidate for County Recorder was also given the double cross, and besides the sympathy racket worked against him, he was characterized as an interloper who had seized the office of County Recorder and had turned out the chief deputy, a woman, who was thus left without means to support an aged mother.
The drys also waded into Backs and helped to defeat him, not that he as an individual is inclined to look upon the wine when it is red in the cup.
his record in the past and will be his aim in the future.
The splendid support given Supervisors Talbert, Struck and Leek in their candidacy for re-election is the sincere evidence of the appreciation in which these men are held by the county at large, the vote given each making their election certain.
Each had bitter opposition and were attacked on grounds that might best appeal to the unreasoning, but each stood on his record and won out hands down.
Talbert's victory is perhaps the most significant, as he had a strong opponent, a man well and favorably known in the district, but the decision in Talbert's favor was evidently given exclusively on merit, so it is safe to say that the better man won out
I love a republican, but you Jim Sleeper.
Jim Sleeper, as was expected, won out handily, almost like running alone. What opposition he had was a merchantable commodity, and only reached as far as dollars and cents could influence the making of adverse sentiments, for no man in Orange county could have beaten Jim Sleeper on his record.
The county convention of each political party will be held at the Courthouse in each county of the State on September 8. The membership of these conventions consists of the various Assembly Districts. Much the same form of procedure is outlined for the county convention as that which takes place a week later in the state convention.
The Republican state convention will meet at Sacramento on September 15, when a State Central Committee, consisting of thirty-three members, three from each Congressional District, will be selected. At the same time a platform will be adopted, a chairman and secretary and executive committee elected.
Other parties will hold their conventions at the same time. All nominees for state, congressional and legislative offices become members of the state convention. Delegates who were elected in each holdover Senatorial District will fill out the membership of the convention. Five parties must

If elected in November he will take his seat upon the committee of ways and means, and will in time, without doubt, be chosen chairman of that committee. It will take a new man ten years to secure a place upon this committee, and it will redound to the interests of the people of this district to have Needham take his place immediately as its third ranking member. He was for many years probably the most important member of Congress from California, and is entitled to the undivided support of the people of the district.
KNOWLAND FOR UNITED STATES SENATOR
Now that Hon. Joseph R. Knowland of Alameda county has decisively defeated Samuel M. Shortridge of San Francisco, for the Republican nomination for United States Senator, he is being made the target for abuse by the "poison press" throughout the state of California. In some newspaper offices he is denounced as a reactionary, in others he is lampooned as a progressive. But the fact remains that Mr. Knowland is a consistent unwerving Republican, who in his ten years' service as representative in congress at Washington, has manfully fought for protection for the industries of California. He stood with the foremost leaders at the national capital for free tolls to American coastwise shipping through the Panama canal. This is a subject of utmost interest to California, as well as the states of the Atlantic seaboard, and all the states of the American union. When Woodrow Wilson and his democratic administration knuckled down to the demands of Great Britain that American coastwise ships should be subjected to the same canal tolls as British or Jananese ships, Mr. Knowland raised his voice in solemn protest, and while he was defeated by the democratic big stick in the hands of Woodrow Wilson, he entered his voice in solemn protest in this crowning infamy of the century. In the senate next year he will lead the fight against this democratic injustice to our shipping industry, and being a great orator of national reputation he will bend his omnipotent energies against this great and sugar beet farmers to stand for re-election to congress. He was nominated without opposition at primaries and is now the republican candidate for congress before the people of the 11th congressional district.
If elected in November he will take his seat upon the committee of ways and means, and will in time, without doubt, be chosen chairman of that committee. It will take a new man ten years to secure a place upon this committee, and it will redound to the interests of the people of this district to have Needham take his place immediately as its third ranking member. He was for many years probably the most important member of Congress from California, and is entitled to the undivided support of the people of the district.

The big Bull Moose refuses the nomination for Governor, but has promised that he will make a campaign from one end of the State to other for whoever may be nominated.
According to Mr. Bryan, the good Democrats of Illinois will support Congressman Stringer for United States Senator, and the bad ones will support Roger Sullivan. There must be a lot of bad ones in state or Mr. Sullivan mistaken regarding the situation, as he says he is "absolutely confident" of his nomination by a great plurality. He claims that he will carry Cook county by 100,000 plurality and will have a clear majority in each ofthe twenty-seven Congressional districts and every one ofthe 102 counties ofthe state. If so Mr. Bryan will receive a second lesson from Mr.Sullivan.
The candidacy of J.B.Billard for Governor of Kansas on a resubmission platform is worrying The Prohibitionists.Kansas has been A prohibition state for so many years that it has been classified with Malone as permanently "dry." Nevertheless it is recognized that there are thousands of anti-prohibitionists in state and if they all should vote for Billard,the election might give for a surprise.

subjected to the same canal tolls as British or Japanese ships, Mr. Knowland raised his voice in solemn protest, and while he was defeated by the democratic big stick in the hands of Woodrow Wilson, he entered his voice in solemn protest to this crowning infamy of the century. In the senate next year he will lead the fight against this democratic injustice to our shipping industry, and being a great orator of national reputation he will bend his eminent energies against this great injustice to American ships and our California industries. He stood for adequate protection for our citrus, our walnut, our sugar beet and other industries against the calamity of free trade, and was probably the foremost man in congress dissenting from the democratic propoganda. He is a tried and true advocate of republican protection to American industry, and is the man of all others in California to represent the state in the upper house of Congress.
Mr. Knowland defeated Samuel M. Shortridge for the republican nomination for United States senator by a majority of more than 50,000 votes in the state, and that he will be triumphantly elected in November by 200,000 plurality over his free trade opponent is a matter admitting of not a particle of doubt. California should stand by Knowland. He has stood in the forefront of the fight for protection of our industries and our shipping, and is the man above all others in the state of California who should represent us in the United States senate at Washington. Vote for Knowland for United States senator and keep in office a tried and true faithful representative of our industries at the national capital.
Fred Marsh made a business trip to the city Tuesday.
in which the John T. Carpenter and the Sorrone Water Companies were involved with James Irvine, and the Santa Ana Polytechnic school bond case, which was taken up at the last minute and carried successfully through the higher courts by Mr. Williams after it had been declared so muddled that utter disaster threatened under existing conditions.
R. Y. Williams is the acknowledged leader of the Orange county bar, a man of unblemished reputation and of unquestioned ability, and besides this is a staunch and unflinching republican, and level-headed men and women will show their appreciation of this combination of qualities by seating him next November on the Superior Court bench.
The inconsistency of the proletariat is again signally illustrated in the case of Justice of the Peace Cox, who distanced his dry opponent for the honor of presiding over the Justice Court of Santa Ana township, beating him by over a city block and crossing the wire without turning a hair. George Huntington, the dry candidate, was touted to win handily, his claim to favor lying in the assertion that Cox is not extra dry, in fact is considered quite damp at intervals, the degree of moisture ranging from wet to sloppy, according to the point of view of those from whom information on the subject may be sought. Hair-splitting and joking aside however, Cox has made a good record as Justice of the Peace and that fact is evidenced by the strong support given him at the polls.
All of the inconsistencies are not on the part of the drys, as was shown in the case of District Attorney L. A. West, against whom the wets prosecuted a bitter campaign, but some of the kindergarten politicians opposed to West overplayed their hands and the result was a revulsion of sentiment that carried West safely to victory in the first round of the battle.
And now that he is assured of another term of office as Public Prosecutor there is no need for promises of change in methods; as he in future, as in the past, will stand for exact and equal justice under the law. That's
ORDERS FOR COPY OF GREAT REGISTER
Orders for copies of the index to the great register for the third supervisor district of Orange county will be taken at this office during the present month. The indices will comprise 24 precincts and will include about 7000 names. The index will be ready for delivery some time next month, and those wishing to preserve copies of the same will do well to order them promptly, as only a limited number will be printed besides those ordered by the board of supervisors of Orange county. These indices will be used for all local elections which may be held next year, and as no other indices to the great register will be printed before that time copies should be obtained before the same are out of print.

NORTH COUNTY MEN DEFEATED
The defeat of Joseph M. Backs of this city for recorder, E. J. Marks of Fullerton for district attorney, and Dr. D. W. Hasson of Buena Park for coroner and public administrator at least weeks' primary marks the slaughter of three excellent gentlemen from the north end of the county by voters at the county seat and other precincts in the southerly end of the county. While these gentlemen were given splendid endorsement in their home precincts, the vote against them in the southern end of the county was such that they were decisively defeated. That there existed a political combination against these gentlemen is a matter admitting of no doubt. Thus we see three men from outside the county seat defeated by three Santa Ana candidates. This seems to us like rubbing it in. While the third supervisor district polls a third of the vote in the county, and while it gives local candidates flattering support, the county seat and other districts seem to be arrayed against us and they give it to us in the neck every time they get a chance. This may be good politics at Santa Ana but the time will come when voters in the outlying precincts will get together and show these astute Santa Ana politicians a thing or two which might be politically distasteful.
