Every militiaman in the State will be in- terested in the able editorial which is entitied ““When the State Cries for Help,” because it puts the situation as regards the position of the business man and the labor unions toward the National Guard squarely before the public. The News Letter advocates a policy among our merchants and employers which, if adopted. will kill the racetrack nulsance’ and lessen our criminal statistics. ““The Thugs and the Unions” is one of many editorials on the reign of terror that has been maintained in this city by the inefficient city administration and its friends, the stablemen's union.

Wilson had two grips, which were filled with all kinds of surgical instru- ments, among which, it is claimed, were several of West's. Wilson has papers showing that he enlisted as a volunteer surgeon during the Spanish war and was assigned by the Government to Roosevelt's Rough Riders. He says he was wounded in the leg at San Juan Hill, and claims that after bandaging his own leg he went back to aid the wounded. —_———— AGED LOS ANGELES WOMAN KILLED IN STRANGE WAY Falls From Street Car and Teeth of Heavy Comb Are Driven Into Skull.
