SCHLOSSINGK THE EMINENT EUROPEAN ENDORSED BY SOME OF THE LEADING PHYSICIAN Regular Feature Pictures in Conjunction HOW ABOUT THIS, MR. WILSON? That President Wilson added a postscript to his message to the Kaiser’s government following the Lusitania affair, stating that the “strict accountability” demand was not to be taken seriously, is a statement made by Henry Cabot Lodge, United States Senator from Massachusetts. In a speech at Brockton in his own state, Friday, Mr. Lodge said: “On May 7, 1915,” he said, “the Lusitania was sunk and 115 Americans rightfully on board were sent to their death. At Philadelphia the next day President Wilson said there was such a thing as ‘being too proud to fight.’ I think he said it for the purpose of seeing how the country liked it. He found out and changed his mind over night. “On May 13 he sent his famous ‘strict accountability’ and ‘omit no word or act’ note to Germany, signed by Secretary of State Bryan. On June 9, 1915, a second note was sent them, Mr. Bryan having resigned the night before. It seemed incredible that Mr. Bryan should sign the first note and refuse to sign the second. “After the note had been read to the cabinet and agreed to by all the members, Mr. Wilson added a postscript which I have not seen, because it mysteriously disappeared. In this postscript President Wilson informed the imperial German government that the words ‘strict accountability’ and the other strong phrases in the first note were not to be taken seriously, and ended by agreeing to refer the whole matter to arbitration. This, of course, pleased Mr. Bryan, but it did not please the other members of the cabinet, who threatened to resign and expose the whole thing. “The postscript was removed and Mr. Bryan resigned. Mr. Bryan told Dr. Dumba, the Austrian minister, that the note of May 13 did not mean anything and Dr. Dumba immediately sent the word to Berlin. He later was recalled..

A reaffirmation of the truth of his statement that Henry Breckenridge former assistant secretary of war, had told him that President Wilson had eliminated a postscript from the second Lusitania note after several members of his cabinet threatened to resign if it were included, was made by Dr. Charles H. Bailey a professor of Tufts Medical school, at Boston Saturday. Dr. Bailey was quoted in a letter read at a political meeting in Somerville by Senator Lodge as having had a conversation with Mr. Breckenridge on a train from San Francisco last July, in which the former assistant secretary of War made the alleged assertion regarding the postscript. According to a statement issued by the republican state committee, Dr. Bailey replied to an inquiry he has received from the Philadelphia Ledger that his letter as read by Senator Lodge was "a fair and not at all natural to suppose that this might settle the matter for a time at least. But destroyed in this state. It would be such was not the case. A special session of the legislature was called and the mandate of the people, as expressed at the polls less than three months before, was openly defied by the passage of this act. If the principle of direct legislation is to be justified, legislatures and governors must be shown that when the voters directly state their wishes, those wishes can not be openly defied with impunity. The fact that this measure was enacted in defiance of the results of a referendum election by those who pretend to be the strongest advocates of direct legislation should open the eyes of the blindest. "There is another aspect of this matter to be considered. This law would forbid party registration and provides only for party declaration at the polls. This law would permit of a party's control by its opponents at the primaries. It would allow boss maries and the control of party nominations by the unscrupulous. "If you believe that those whom the people elect should carry out their wishes as they have directly expressed them, if you believe in party government, if you favor clean and honest primaries, vote No." ALFRED L.

According to a statement issued by the republican state committee, Dr. Bailey replied to an inquiry he has received from the Philadelphia Ledger that his letter as read by Senator Lodge was "a fair and not at all exaggerated" story of his conversation with Breckenridge. The committee's statement added: "Dr. Bailey said in his reply that he expected there would be denials all around, but that he affirmed the truth of his letter and called attention to the fact that Breckenridge had made no denial of the most important feature of the letter, which said that President Wilson, without the knowledge of any member of his Cabinet except Secretary Bryan, had added a postscript to the Lusitania note saying that the German government was not to put too serious an interpretation on the words 'omit no word or act.'" "Dr. Bailey was introduced to Breckenridge on the train. He had never seen the gentleman before, he said, but finding they were occupying compartments in the same sleeping car, naturally conversed considerable with him on the way East. His talk on politics did not occur until the second day after they left San Francisco after an acquaintance of about thirty-six hours." MAINTAIN PARTY GOVERNMENT Strong argument in behalf of the party form of government in California is made by Assemblyman Albert L. Bartlett of Los Angeles in his plea to the voters of the state that they vote No on No. 4 at the election next Tuesday. Bartlett's argument against the law follows: "On October 26, 1916, the electors of this state overwhelmingly repudiated the theory talt parties should be shown that when the voters directly state their wishes, those wishes can not be openly defied with impunity. The fact that this measure was enacted in defiance of the results of a referendum election by those who pretend to be the strongest advocates of direct legislation should open the eyes of the blindest. "There is another aspect of this matter to be considered. This law would forbid party registration and provides only for party declaration at the polls. This law would permit of a party's control by its opponents at the primaries. It would allow boss domination in centers of population. Under the provisions of this measure voters could flock to the polls, call for a democratic ballot, and vote for a republican or a progressive as the democratine nominee for United States senator, and this in spite of the fact that such voters never had and never intended to affiliate with the party for which they were chosing the nominee. "The law requiring voters who intend to take part in a party primary to register as members of that party, was passed nine years ago as a reform measure. It was passed because the abuses just mentioned had become serious. We see, therefore, that this is a reactionary measure; that it is designed to put our election laws back in the condition that existed in the days before an enlightened electorate demanded that such corrupt practices should cease. Chief Justice Beatty, in a decision rendered in the case of Schostag vs. Cator, 151 Cal. 604, speaks of the provision requiring party declaration at the time of registration as a "provision evidently designed to prevent unscrupulous and mercenary electors from holding themselves free down to the day of election to vote with any party, upon any corrupt motive, for the purpose of influencing the nomination of its candidates for public office, while without any interest in their success, and perhaps with an interest in their defeat." These reasons speak just as eloquently in favor of our rtaining this safeguard and therefore deefating this act which would eliminate party registration, permit of boss domination in party pri- NOTICE State of California, County of Orange, ss.: Office of the Tax Collector: NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN, That the taxes on all personal property secured by real property, and one-half of the taxes on all real property, become due and payable on the third Monday in October, and will be delinquent on the first Monday in December next thereafter, at six o'clock p.m., and that unless paid prior thereto, fifteen per cent will be added to the amount thereof, and that if said one-half is not paid before the last Monday in April next, at six o'clock p.m., an additional five per cent will be added thereto.

To gain control of the senate, the republicans must elect 23 candidates. That is to say, they must elect all of their fifteen and make an inroad of eight on the democrats. In Indiana two senators are to be chosen as a result of the death of Benpamin F. Shively, whose seat is now held by Thomas Taggart as appointee of the governor. The states in which one senator is to be elected are Arizona, Florida, New Mexico, West Virginia, Minnesota, Wyoming, Texas, Delaware, Nebraska, Wisconsin, Tennessee, Maryland, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, North Dakota, Connecticut, New Jersey, Montana, New York, Pennsylvania, Vermont, Nevada, Washington, Ohio, Missouri, Utah, Virginia, Mississippi, Michigan and California. The residence of J. K. Robinson of La Habra was burned down Thursday night, causing a loss of $1700. The blaze was caused by the overturning of a lamp. Mrs. Robinson was alone in the house when the fire broke out. Firemen prevented the flames from spreading to the outbuildings. There was no insurance on the property burned.
