NON PARTISANISM IS A FAILURE IN CITIES been three elections for mayor under it. At the first primary election under it, the two nominators were Job Harriman, the socialist, and "Uncle George" Alexander. Harriman, the socialist, got several thousand more primary votes than Alexander, although Los Angeles isn't a socialist city by any means. And at the election Alexander beat Harriman only by a small majority, and did that only as the result of a coalition between the progressive leaders with Generalander, of course, satisfactory to the nobody else.

JOHNSON STUMPING THE STATE ADVISING PEOPLE TO ABANDON SUCCESSFUL SYSTEM By Geo. C. Pardee of the Oakland Enquirer. Governor Johnson, all the present and last sets of state officials, and our last three legislatures are the results of voluntary, party nonpartisanism, coupled with the direct primary. These results have been satisfactory to the great mass of the people. The only persons who have been heard to complain are a few standpatters, the remnants of the Herrin machine, and some editors whose Johnson-inflicted wounds cause them to hate the governor and to decry him and everything he proposes. Yet Governor Johnson has been stumping the state eloquently advising us to abandon the successful system which has given us Governor Johnson and his satisfactory official colleagues in the state capitol. He advises us to cast aside the brand of nonpartisanism which has enabled the people to beat the machine three times in succession; and he asks us to substitute for it an enforced, involuntary, partyless nonpartisanism, and he advises us to do this because he says his brand of partyless nonpartisanism has worked well in the cities of this state. The governor's brand of partyless nonpartisanism has been on trial in some of our cities for a number of years. But the results have, apparently, been more often unsatisfactory than satisfactory. In Los Angeles, for instance, there have been three elections for mayor under it. At the first primary election under it, the two nominees were Job Harriman, the socialist, and "Uncle George" Alexander. Harriman, the socialist, got several thousand more primary votes than Alexander, although Los Angeles isn't a socialist city by any means. And at the election Alexander beat Harriman only by a small majority, and did that only as the result of a coalition between the progressive leaders with General Otis, the Southern Pacific machine and the standpatters generally—a mixture of political oil and water which only the fear of "the socialist paril" made possible. At the next partyless enforced, Los Angeles city election; Mayor Rose was elected over the protests of most of the Los Angeles progressive leaders. He served only one term, and during this term the progressives of the Angel City girded at and found fault with him continually. This year the third enforced, involuntary, partyless, nonpartisan primary and election were held in Los Angeles. The result was Mayor Sebastian. Against him the California Outlook, the organ of the progressive party solemnly warned the Los Angeles people, and predicted, before and after his election, that woes innumerable would follow his inauguration. NONPARTISANISM GIVES US PARTISANS— Mayor Alexander, of Los Angeles, who, by the skin of his political teeth, defeated Harriman, the Socialist, was partlessly nonpartisanly nominated and elected. Was he, therefore, a nonpartisan? No; he was, and probably still is, a partisan progressive. And, being an honest man, he did everything he could to give a progressive color to the city government of Los Angeles. With that, of course, we progressives ought not to quarrel. But the point is that partyless nonpartisanism does not give us nonpartisanism in our cities. It may bunco us into the belief that we are getting nonpartisanism, "free from prejudices and blindness of party fealty." But we don't get it. Harriman, as mayor of Los Angeles, would of course, have appointed socialists to office and put into effect as many socialist principles and practices as he possible could. And Mayor Alex- ander, of course, saves wherever he can satisfactory to the nobody else. After or Alexander, partly nominated and elected or Rose, also partly nominated and elected in office and out of it or a democrat or a whose official acts to be not greatly against whom our gressy friends voice plaintiffs. In Mayor Hale the point: Nonparties and elected, he was partisan—one of the ing from the vote of progressive Governments not have been satisfied fority of the Los Angeles any rate; at the end body proposed that he be reelected, although paratively young men health—neither of Mayor Alexander or Partyless nonpartisanly Rose came Mayor Partyless nonpartisan and elected.

VOTE AGAINST AMENDMENT 9 County Assessor Sleeper is very strongly opposed to Amendment 9, relating to the new method of taxation to be voted upon at next Tuesday's election. Mr. Sleeper declares that the proposed measure has the support of all the large corporations in the state, many of which had lobbies at Sacramento during the last session of the legislature urging passage of the amendment. Sleeper says one effect of the new tax law will be to take from local taxation the extensive oil fields of Orange county, and place them among the corporations taxed for support of the state government. This will cause a loss of some $400,000 to this county; and this amount will have to be made up by the common tax payer. Vote against the amendment. Kill it.

He passed two worthless checks on a sporting goods house, one for $16.95 in payment for a gun and the other for $2.50 for ammunition. of course, appointed Progressives wherever he could and was quite satisfactory to the progressives, if to nobody else. After progressive Mayor Alexander, partlessly nonpartisan nominated and elected, came Mayor Rose, also partlessly nonpartisan nominated and elected. Mayor Rbse, in office and out of it, was, and is either a democrat or a republican, with whose official acts standpatters seem to be not greatly dissatisfied, but against whom our Los Angeles progressive friends voiced numerous complaints. In Mayor Rose's case this is the point: Nonpartisan nominated and elected, he was, nevertheless, a partisan—one of the kind who, judging from the vote Los Angeles gave progressive Governor Johnson, could not have been satisfactory to the majority of the Los Angeles people. At any rate, at the end of his term, nobody proposed that Mayor Rose should be reelected, although he was a comparatively young man and in good health—neither of which blessings Mayor Alexander enjoyed. Succeeding nonpartisanly partisan Mayor Rose came Mayor Sebastian, also partless nonpartisan nominated and elected. Against him, as has been said, the progressive organ, The California Outlook, vainly warned the people of Los Angeles, both before and after election. He has been in office but a few months. But, in spite of the partyless nonpartisanism of his nomination and election, it appears that he, too, is a partisan, but of the kind of which the Outlook does not approve, because it has been silent with regard to him ever since he took office. "THE BEST MEN" Partyless nonpartisanism, Governor Johnson assures us, will give the people of California the opportunity to choose, for their state officials, "the best men." Did it work out that way in Los Angeles, Berkeley and Oakland? Has not the other kind of nonpartisanism—the kind the Governor advises us to abandon—given us "the best men" for state officials every time we have tried it? Who but the remnants of the Herrin machine and a few standpatters have any real cause of complaint against the kind of nonpartisanism under which we are now working and have, ever since we got it so satisfactorily worked? The direct primary applied to the parties has put the S. P.'s machine out of business in this state and enabled the people, for the first time in half a century, to choose their own officials, the direct primary, applied to partyless nonpartisanism in the big cities, has been a failure. How could it be better; or even as good, in the much bigger state, where, speaking after the manner of men, nobody knows anybody? We also have—don't forget—partyless nonpartisanism in the election of our judicial officers. Not a few, though, of those who now advise us to apply partyless nonpartisanism to the election of our nonjudicial state officials, assure us that partyless nonpartisanism in the election of our judges has been a failure, and advise us to stop electing those officials and give the governor the power to appoint them. If partyless nonpartisanism has been a failure in the matter of choosing our judges, how can they who say it is a failure advise us to apply to the election of our nonjudicial officials the procedure that they assure us has failed in the selection of judges? If, with the direct primary and party nonpartisanism, the people of California can select "the best men" for nonjudicial officials, but are in danger of not selecting "the best men" for their judges under the same method; will not those same people be in danger of not selecting "the best men" for their nonjudicial officials, if they adopt the kind of partyless nonpartisanism which we are assured, has failed with regard to the judges? Would partyless nonpartisanism have given us a better governor than Johnson, better lieutenant governors than Wallace and Eshleman, better legislators than the last three? If not, why change to something which has failed in the cities and threatens to fail in the selection of our judges. J. L.
