At this time it is difficult to say which has the best nce of election. The friends of Louis Moore are working hard in the interest of their candidate, as it is a matter of gectional pride to have Northern California represented among the grand officers. Nothing further than organization was ected at the morning sesston of the en- cempment. In the afternoon the encamp- ment_convened in secre on.

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 16.—Chief of Police Elton has framed a new curfew ordinance, H. The trouble with the present ordinance is that no practicable means is provided for enforcing it. Children under 15 years of age may be arrested for being on the reets after 9 p. m., but it is neither lumane nor desirable to make them spend the night in the city jail The proposed ordinance fixes the age at 17 years. Any boy or girl under that age found w-nderln% on the street after 9 o’clock may be locked up, but the par- ents also will be subject to arrest and may be fined from $ to $25 for the viola tion of the curfew law by thelr children.
