General Hughes, who has been appoint- ed to the command of the Department of California, will not assume the duties o his new position for a few weeks, owing to the necessity for his presence at the national capital. His term of service in this city will be of short duration, as he is slated for retirement in about a year, General Young will be officlally relieved to-day.

Indications | multiply that the Republicans who are | against machine methods and boss doml- | nation will elect a majority of the dele- | gates in that county. Several of Gage's | supporters admit on the quiet that he cannot do better in Los Angeles than break even.” The opposition to Gage's renomination is taking the form of a large enrollment of Republican voters in Flint clubs, At the outset ward clubs were | formed. The earnest support given to the | anti-machine campaign by property owners, merchants and workingmen of | the party encouraged the leaders of the movement to provide for the organization of a cemtral club of 1000 members. | The vigorous, enlightened and progressive | citizenship which is doing so much to ren- der the southland attractive and prosper- ous entertains but slight respect for the | Governor. P The Central Flint Club, with its mem- bership of 1000, will certainly wield a pow- erful influence in the choice of men to | represent Los Angeles in the State Con- | vention. When business men, who are out | of politics so far as office getting is con- cerned, are asked to account for the re- action in public sentiment they reply that the Governor has ignored every true in- terest in the south and given his time and | attention to the care and protection of low-grade politicians. It is said that the formation of Flint clubs is not significant | of an enthusiastic demand for Flint's | nomination, but does signify an earnest | | appeal for the nomination of a candidate | other than Gage. Amti-Gage Feeling Is Pronounced. Hitherto Los Angeles County, by the numerical strength. and unity of her dele- gations, has been able to swing into line 1l the forces south of Tehachapi, but the nti-Gage feeling is too pronounced for v such concentration in support of the Governor's renomination. In the country districts the farmers and fruit growers | do not entertain a friendly feeling for the | Governor. In the agricultural districts south of Tehachapi the Gage supporters are “few and far between. Governor Gage will be forced to make a | strong fight in Los Angeles to lessen the resistance to his programme in the State | Convention, but his managers are count- | ing on electing programme delegations in | the boss-ridden districts of San Francisco, Sacramento and Santa Clara to overcome the loss in the south. The State Central Committee will be expected to attend to the work of having Gage delegations ap- pointed by the party “governing bodies" in counties where the primary election law is not mandatory. As the primary law is mandatory in only twelve cities of the State the field is quite extensive for outside manipulation in favor of the pro- gramme. Los Angeles and Pasadena, however, are cities in the mandatory class, and delegates must be chosen according to the manner prescribed in the law. In Pasa- dena_Assembl 7. 8.

It s the common Impression among poli- | ticlans or public men in Pasadena that | ex-Governor Markham proposes to lend his influence to the support of Thomas Flint. It is quite well known that he is not going out of his way to sound the praises of Gage. With a view of dispell- ing doubt as to Markham's attitude, the | “Gr r" of the Pasadena Star sought for a Markham rise and got it.

Martin Kelly’s Alliance. The nominating committee of the Re- publican Mutual Alllance met last night and nominated the following permanent officers: Laurence Vincent, president; T. C. Mastel- ler, first vice president; I Goldman, second vice president; D. L. Reynolds, recording sec- retary; James J. Murry, financlal secretary; Max Gailick, treasurer; ‘A. C. Berthler, eral organizer; Martin Kelly, chief deputy or- ganizer; M. A. Smith, first sergeant at arms; ¥. J. Meincke, second sergeant at arms. Last summer Boss Kelly bore the brunt of battle in 8an Francisco against the Re- publican Primary League. After the elec- | tion Crimmins, Herrin and Lynch cheated him. Kelly then resolved to form a club of his own and give battle to his old- time partner, Crimmins, and accordingly opened the Alliance. Subsequently Herrin and Crimmins cheated and betrayed Burns and the “‘colonel” 1s now out with a knife for Crimmins’ political scaip. Un- | der cover Herrin is lending assistance to Crimmins, but is openly professing friend- ship for Burns. As the bosses are fighting and cheating one another thére may be a fine opportunity for electing anti-boss del- egations to the Republican State Conven- tion.

When a physician tells a woman suffering with ova- rian or womb trouble that an operation is necessary, it of course frightens her. The very thought of the operating table and the knife strikes terror to her heart. And our hospitals are full of women who are there for ovarian and womb operations ! It is quite true that these troubles may reach a stage where an operation is the only resource, but such cases are much rarer than is generally supposed, because a great many women have been cured by Mrs. Pinkham’s med- icine after the doctors had said the operation must be performed. Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound has been very successful in curing ovarian troubles. up to the point where the knife must be used to secure instant relief, this medicine is certain to help. Ovarian troubles are easily developed from womb troubles, and womb troubles are so very common that ovaritis is steadily on the increase among women. It is, nevertheless, a most serious trouble, and to recommend wrong treatment for it is a crime for which there cannot be too deep a penalty. It is, therefore, with full consciousness of the ueri_oPs- ness of the disease and the steady failure of other medicine to cure it, that we present for ovarian and womb trouble Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound as the most certain to help of any medicine in the world to-day. Any person who ¢ould read the letters in Mrs. Pinkham’s i files at her office in Lynn, Mass., would be convinced of the efficiency of Mrs. Pinkham’s Compound. The strongest and most grateful statements .possible to make come from women who have escaped the operat- ing table by the use of this medicine. Let any woman suffering from these troubles, or anything which may de- velop into them, write and get Mrs. Pinkham’s advice. If you are beyond the reach of the medicine, you will be SATURDAY, MARCH 15, 1902. om an Operatio, ADVERTISEMENTS. Earnest Words of Gratitude. “DrAR Mgs. PrxgnAm:—Your Vegetable Compound has completely cured me of the worst form of womb trouble, and made me a strong, healthy, robust woman. Before using Lydi E.Pi 's Vegetable Compound, I suffered with severe pains in back and side, headache and nervousness. Menses would sometimes occur every two weeks, and once I had a se- vere hemorrhage which lasted a month. I was confined to my bed and the attending physi- cians told me I would have to undergo an oper- ation as soon as I was strong enough, I read in one of your little books several testimonials from ladies who were cured b{ your Compound after having been told by their doctors that an operation was necessary, and I made up my mind then and there to commence taking your Compound., I did so and it has completely r stored me to good health, Ihave gained twenty- two pounds since taking it and my flesh is as #olld as a rock.

I was troubled with a complication of female troubles, had ovaritis, painful and irregular menstruation, leucorrheea, nervousness, and weakness. I had no appe- tite and could not sleep nights. The least exertion would cause short- ness of breath and dull pains in my hips and side. The doctors all advised me to have an operation and have one of my ovaries removed, but this I could not bear to think of. I was induced to try Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, and after taking the first bottle I was much improved. It renewed my appetite, health, and strength. I continued taking it, also your Blood Purifier and Sanative Wash, until entirely cured ogn.ll my troubles. The pains have never returned, and my health is splendid. “Your remedies have been a boon to me, and I am sure many a woman owes her life to them.”—MARIE WEBB, 356 Columbus Ave., Boston, Mass. DEAR Mgzs. PgrAM:—I feel it my duty to publish the wonderful help Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound has been to me. Iwas like & crazy person—could not eat or sleep; there was no rest for me day or night. Physicians examined me and said an operation was necessary. Before undergoing it, however, I determined to try Lydia E. Pinkham’s Compound. I am so glad I did, for it cured me. I ama well woman now and can do any kind of work. I want this published throughout the land, so that all my suffering sisters may read, and if in any way icted with female troubles, they may be induced by my sincere statement to try this wonderful Vegetable Compound and be cured.” —MRS.
