NEWS NOTES FROM PASADENA Republican Caucuses Not a Love Feast TOO MUCH MACHINE WORK Ta Salt the Advocates ol Parity io Politics Tans' Before W. C.

T. U. en Social and Personal and Brevities PASADENA, Sept. Republican caucuses last evening; at the Wigwam, to nominate delegates to the county and assembly district conventions, brought out a fair representation of most of the precincts, though the Eighth precinct only succeeded in mustering 9 votes. It was a new thing to hold the caucuses all under one roof, Instead of each being held in its own ward, and also somewhat of an innovation to begin voting at 7 oclock instead of 8.

Some of those who took their leisure In getting consequently lost their that the change to an earlier hour was part of the scheme engineered by "the machine," and when the fact developed that there was considerable opposition to H. H. Rose, the Pasadena candidate for the assembly, they thought they saw through the scheme. So it was not exactly a love feast, though, of course, it is quite the thing this campaign to swallow any sort of a dose that may be presented by the "managers" without a grimace, "for the good of the party," and anybody that objects is promptly sat down upon. That the Republicans of Pasadena are not exactly of one mind, however, is borne out by the statement of the News, that out of twenty-five delegates elected, there will be fifteen for Rose and twenty against him.

It Is said that those opposed to Rose will support Mellck of Lancaster. W. C. T. TJ.

LECTURES. Mrs. Mary A. Teats, state lecturer for the W. C.

T. spoke yesterday afternoon to women, and last evening at the Y. M. C. A.

rooms to men only on the subject of "'Purity." Mrs. Teats Is a gray-haired woman who has a motherly way about her, and her manffer Shows earnestness and sincerity, and a desire to do good. She spoke of the need of the White Cross society on account of the great amount of corrupting literature and the thousand and one devices that are adopted to lure young people from the path of rectitude and purity. She thought that children should be taught the some figment of the th 4) most vital questions with which they will have to do as they grow older. If they are told the truth in a pure, chaste manner when they first begin to inquire.

It will have a lasting impress for good. The double standard of morality makes it more important that young men should have education a.nd instruction upon these subjects. The double standard is all wrong. A boy should be as carefully taught and educated to speak and act as purely and chastely as any girl. Mothers' meetings are being held all over the land every day, in which the best ways of bringing up children are discussed.

Oliver Wendell Holmes was right when he said a child's education should begin 100 years before his birth. I regret that 1 tis necessary to hold these meetings for men separately and for women separately, for when these questions are discussed men and women ought to bo pure and clean enough to look at the matter In the right light. The best medical authorities are agreed that the old notion that a man can't be perfectly continent and at the same time maintain the best of health and vigor is to be relegated to the realms of exploded fallacies. The thought life is what principally affects the moral lifo. Morbid thoughts create untold evil.

Suggestive posters and literature should be removed from the sight of the public. The speaker was one of ten ladles who sallied forth in a town In Nebraska and toro from the bill boards the suggestive posters of a coming theatrical show. A hooting crowd followed, but the women persisted and accomplished their purpose. When the show arrived only five people attended. The town council soon after prohibited the posting of suggestive pictures.

The women were victors, but the men should have helped them. The thinking of pure thoughts is conducive to mental, spiritual and physical health. BREVITIES. At the Republican caucus In North Pasadena last evening the following ticket was brought out to be voted for at the primaries tomorrow: J. P.

VENTURA State end County Politics Demanding Notes VENTURA, Sept. Intense Interest in the presidential campaign is partially diverted for the time being to state and county politics. On the 12th Inst. the Democrats and Populists will hold their county conventions, at which nominees for superior judge, assemblymen and delegates to the senatorial convention of this senatorial district, and for three supervisors will be selected. It is the opinion of many in the city that the Populists will nominate Judge H.

L. Poplin for superior judge, and that the Democrats will indorse the nomination. Either Hon. R. A.

Dague, formerly a Republican state senator in lowa and now the editor of the Santa Paula Chronicle, and an enthusiastic free silver man, or Thomas O. Toland, the recent very determined champion of Geo. S. Patton's congressional aspirations, will be nominated for assemblyman. They each have warm supporters, and either would make a strong candidate.

The delegates from this convention to the senatorial convention will probably favor the nomination of W. E. Shepherd of Ventura, who, It seems. Is conceded to have claims above other aspirants on account of the strong fight he made In the district for the senatorshlp four years ago. Mr.

Shepherd Is said to be a Democrat, but with strong Populist proclivities, and a warm friend of Senator White. If the Santa Barbara convention coincides, he will unquestionably be elected. Hon. Thomas A. Rice Is a strong candidate for the Satlcoy supervlsoral district, although E.

C. Crane, a merchant at Satlcoy, has many warm supporters who believe that he Is decidedly the best man for the place. F. Hartman, a staunch free silver Democrat and proprietor of the Anacapa hotel, is the only candidate named for supervisor of the Ventura district. He is the present supervisor will doubtless be elected by a large majority.

The supervlsoral contact in the OJai district has not yet assumed definite shape, and I cannot ascertain who has the best chance. The free silver sentiment in this county is steadily growing, and the work of thoroughly organizing the county by having free sliver clubs In every precinct will soon be completed. Santa Paula sent three trains of produce to the east Tuesday, consisting of thirty-six cars of beans and eight cars of dried fruit and olive oil. The special article on Ventura county which appeared In last Sunday's Herald Is pronounced to be one of the most, comprehensive and accurate ever written on this county. SANTA MONICA Opening of the Farmers' News Notes SANTA MONICA, Sept.

SANTA BARB AHA Improvements st Trolley SANTA BARBARA, Sept. Riadeliffe-Whitehead has now extended his recently purchased land holdings on Romero creek, In Monteclto, to 550 acres and has surveyors sit) work laying out roads with gradients not exceeding 8 per cent, which will give access to all points of the property and one of which will lead to the mountains and the trail over the range.

Large lemon groves are also being planted and among the plans now in the hands of the engineers is one of a fine stone bridge'over the creek Itself. The adjoining property owners, Messrs Alexander, Gllmore and Mrs. Mac Curdy Hart, will probably co-operate with him, In the construction of a Joint dam and reservoir, and will unite In defending their rights against any adverse action which the owners of the Crocker-Sperry LOS ANGELES HERALD: SATTJRDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 8, 1999. ranch on the lower waters of the stream may bring.

and is now being syphoned to the company's caisson. The Consolidated Electric company have now put a force of men at work stringing their trolley wire. But little remains to be done at their new power house, the electric machinery, engines, boilers, all being In good working order wo that on the arrival of the new carmine colored cars from the manufacturer In San Francisco the road will be ready for travel. The officers of the company are confident that the hum of the trolley will be heard not later than the 15th of this month. Owen H.

Stafford has been appointed secretary of the Santa Barbara lemon growers' exchange. This office has been filled for the past few months by A. M. Lynes, one of the directors, who, owing to the pressure of his private business. Is forced to resign.

The exchange Is far exceeding the estimates made for the fruit necessary to make the undertaking a financial success. Several carloads of lemons have recently been disposed of, f. o. Santa Barbara, at a figure greater than ever received before by packer or grower. The new building Is also very satisfactory and Mr.

Little, the manager, is confident of a successful year. The latest news from the bean fields of Carpenteria and Ventura Is somewhat discouraging. One expert, who this week went carefully over the grounds, reports that although harvesting Is now going on and no accurate estimate can be made until the threshing begins, still It Is now evident that less than 60 per cent of a full crop will be gathered. Thiri' In the face of the that the new acreage this year exceeds 10,000 acres in the two counties. The prices quoted are also very low.

Allen S. Boyd today thoved with his family to his ranch at Los Ollvos, where he wll spend the winter. Mr. and Mrs. William Oothout are expected to return to the city this week, after spending trtV summer at Lenor, Mass.

Col. James G. Deadrlck of Carpenteria and W. A. Hayne, of Monteclto, will appear before the Democratic county convention for the nomination for supervisor from the First district.

A certificate of nomination naming Hon. Walter B. Cope as an Independent candidate for superior judge, is In circulation today, receiving hundreds of signatures. In this county the office of superior judges has been taken out of politics, none of the conventions will nominate candidates and it is probable that the present Democratic encumbent will be re-elected without any opposition.
