ve&tigulion of its own.
After soma purloy tho committee
vecurcd permission to pass tho po
.IJco lines iiud viewed tho wreckage
irum tho property adjoining the
Times building. At this time even
.the city employes had been ordered
f the property by tho Times owner,
tin, rejxirt mivs.
Tho repot t then reeites tho prin-t-Ifia!
facte of tho explosion and tho
subsequent events, rofcrring to the
Jfact that the "Times itself, in the
issue on tho m-rning of tho explos
ion nml before there wiis any time
"for Investigation," it ullcgcs, charges
.ihut the explosion wus caused by tho
fiitnies of industrial freedom. The
atiKirt then refers to articles printed
5a subsequent issues of tho Times,

bility for tho catastrophe,
Otis Is Insane.
"Inasmuch ns there aro many per
wma who uro not acquainted with
! Harrison Gray Otis and his
wHpaper," tho roport continues,
'"xvi who, thorefore, naturally would
jiWKwe tbut there existed evidonce
to support such ashurtious, it would
seem important Lj bhud souio light
on the matter."
Tho report then reiew Gunonil
Otis' fight against uniouibm in Los
Angeles, saying, among other thing.,
that "on the Mibject of industrial
lieedom it is no exaggeration to say
that Oeuerul Otis is insane." Tho
report further suys tho dream of tho
general's life has been to exterminate
unionism iu Los Angeles.
that unionisth were plotting to do
him violence, Otis mudo of his edi
torial rooms nu arsenal," tho repot t
says. It then refers to tho bitter
fight mado by tho Times against tho
unions during tho recent strike of the
Motul and Brewery Workers in Los
Angeles, and snvs:
Not Dynamite.
"Such was tho situation just pre
vious to the blowing up of tho
Times. It has not been demonstrat
ed that tho building was destroyed
by dynamite. Tho only two points
which possibly enn bo urged in sup
port of tho dynnmiting theory after
four weeks of investigation are:
First, that a committee appointed by
tho mayor roportod that 'the explos
ive used wiio ono of high po or, such
as nitro-glyccrino or a product of
nitroglycerine'; xecnnii, that the dn
following the disaster infernal ma
chines were discovered in the. vicin
ity of tho homes of General Otis and
Secretary Zehandalaar of the .Mer
chants' & .Manufucturero' aosoeia-tion."
I Tho report then tidiciilcs tho l'u
ing of the "internal machines," say-
ing that one of them exploded with
out sufficient force to destroy an
'ordinary alarm clock.
I Couldn't Ui.
"On the other hand," tho report
continues, "to those ywho aro familiar
with the peculiarities of explosions
by dynamite, tho evidence furnishes
an overwhelming certainty that there
was no dynamite connected with tho
affair.
"Our investigation developed tho
following facts: That tho sound of
tho explosion was deep and rumbling,
like cannon or distant thunder; that
tho fire was simultaneous, tho entire
building being enveloped iu flames
within ten seconds after the first

mound iloor throui;h three storicn
and through tho roof and past the

"That tho power of tho explosion,
as well as tho flames, tended upward
and not outward, the outside walls
of the building generally teuiainiiig
standing.
No Panes Ilroker.
"That even some of tho window
panes of tho building wcro not brr.
kon while 'almost no window pau.'s
were broken iu the surrounding
buildings.
"That various employes of tho
Times smclled gas on tho night of
tho explosion, tho fumes being so
strong us to cause a feeling il
nausea in some cases.
"hi our opinion, these fae'e prove
conclusively thnt tho explosion wn"s
caused, by gas nnd not by dynamite
"That gas explodes with a boom

What the Home Rule Bill 3281
Really Is
It gives cities and towns the right to havo saloons or no saloons. I.t gives tho
people who live in cities the right to vote on and decide this question them
selves. Tt puts the control of the liijiior traffic into the hands of tho voters of
each precinct, so that every residential district in a city or town is protected.
It means real local option. All stato criminal laws aro maintained. Under it
tho farmer has the same protection ho now enjoys. It is a law fitted to local
conditions as they exist in every section of tho state. It gives absolute con
trol of the liquor traffic, particularly in towns and cities, where it is most need
ed. Tt will, prevent the county from Wiping out tho pity voto on city measures.
It is a law which makes prohibition possible whoro wanted, and impossible

directions, Had tho Times building
been destroyed by dynamite of suffi
fieut strength to blow upward lhoo
three stories and through the loof,
it would havo also havo blown ovary
wall in tho building into fragments.
"A slow explosion, such as that by
gas does not disturb tho ntmosphoro

at long distance, The opposito is
true with dynamite. Had tho times
been destroyed by dynamite every

From this it 1h nrguod, that tho union
