THE. SAN FRANCISCO CALL, MONDAY, JULY 22, 18Y5. LATEST OAKLAND NEWS, Morehouse’s Interference With Assessments Is Con- demned. ANTONE KIESOW IS SHOT. A Special Meeting of the City Coun- cil To-Night—The Board of Works. It would have given far more satisfac- tion to the taxpayers of Alameda County had District Attorney Snook been at his post of duty during the past week instead of leaving the solitary piece of important work during the present adm ation to a deputy. The assessment of the purely Jocal portion of the Seventh street track was made by Mr. Dalton after taking ad- kland. Deputy District Attorney Church, apparently on the generous and oppo ne advice tendered by Mr. More- b e, declared that the local line was a part of the gen system and conse- quently not assessable in this county. On this advice the sment-roll was reduced from $677,000 to $10. Deputy Church, who rendered the opinion, is a brother to Su- pervisor Church, and the vote of the Supervisor turned the scale, the other four Supervisors being equally divided. Church’s opinion is sustained by the guments of Attorneys Moore and Baker, but as these advocates were present as the 1 ves of the railroad company it t )'Jk"(o‘in presume that Mr. Church vice from the ablest lawyers in Oa Yet not enced thereby. According Morehouse two members of the 1 of Sup sors are cowards and ething else. He said in an Monday that the Super- the railroad assessments were it were too cowardly to reduce 1g public_opinion.” Mr. More- house’s cowards are Mr. Pelouze and Mr. rs’ classification o whom their interests are in- trusted is, however, opposed to that of Mr. Morehouse. On the whole, Mr. More- s_interference with the assessment ngs of Alameds Ccunty before ached him at Sacramento in an fficial capacity is condemned on all sides. As the result showed it was coercive and ssments were presumably ‘‘under consideration’ (a term understood now better than a week ago), interviews with nameless persons and ‘“‘prominent labor leaders” appeared regularly decrying the raising of assessments on corporation property as being calculated to drive away capital. Asa matter of fact every news- by in Alameda County knows that the ing classes to a man regard Dalton as dol. Fortunately, however, the city of Oakland is not dependent for its “‘equal- i n’’ upon the Supervisors or Mr. Morehouse. The Council to whom this ust is confided pays very little attention dings of railroad attorneys and m for what they are worth. ything were needed to complete the ery of the past week’s work in re- gard to “equalizing,” it has been found in the fact that the extension of time to the Alameda board was never officially granted, and that all its acts were illegal. Tt this point can be substantiated befors the courts the thousands of small owners in Alameda County will have great cause 1o rejoice. xperience with the present Board so far does not show any im- provement over the old style, although its individual make-up is somewhat cleaner. This week a Chief of Police will take office in Oakland who has never been a police officer nor a detective, and who has had no police experience whatever. He is a wor- thy man and a Populist, but beyond that nothing is known of him. The Street Department has undergone a change, and the same will be true of the Fire Department. But there must be changes, and to thisthe public does not object, but at present there is nothing to prevent changesevery week, and any tyro knows that such an unsettled state of af- s fatal to discipline and competency. three-cornered Board of Works is ly to take a turn at any time. One vote can change its complexion and consequently can change any office in its gift. Already two open con- flicts have occurred, and Mayor Davie is at present of no more vatue than the third wheel of a bicycle, but there are indica- tions that before next week he may formed an alliance and be one of the solid two instead of the official 1shmaelite. This unsettled method of running the city gov- ernment will never be remedied until Oakland returns to its allegiance to the Republican party. Oakland and Alameda generally were strongly Republican, as when they held the banner of this State. Although the new Chief of Police, who will take the office next Thursday, is nota detective by profession, there is a work awaiting him which needs only firmness end common sense. There are a few or- dinancesand a few State laws regarding gambling and lotteries, side-door en- trances and questionable houses that have mnot been heard of lately. Occasionaily some little restaurant keeper is arrested for keeping open after midnight, or for trading svithout a license, but people have yet to hear of a warrant being served upon any of the political saloons on Twelfth, Four- teenth or Seventh streecs, which nightly violate the closing ordinance. Oakland isnot a hotbed of vice, but nevertheless there are dozens of gambiing dens in the rear of cigar stores. and scores of unsavory bouses which Mr. Lloyd will be expected to close. The interior towns of Alameda County bave shown more public spirit during the pest six months than has been noticed for five years. If she progress of 8an Leandro, Ban Lorenzo and Haywards is due to the opening of the electric road, this fact should act as a stimulant to the promoters of the electric road to Corral Hollow to con- tinue the road to San Jose. Thisenter- prise, however, will not be fostered, as the Livermore Herald suggests, by a division of the county. The cost of two county governments is not going to promote prog- ress, and is withal not a feasible scheme. The franchise for the Livermore road will be passed upon b{’elhe Supervisors this week, and it 18 to hoped that no competing corporation has expressed a de- ire that it be not granted. s . Sruarr W. BooTH. Strange Shooting of Kiesow. Antone Kiesow met death at Melrose last evening in 2 manner that leaves some doubt as to whether 1t was accidental or a case of suicide. Kiesow ran out of his house about 6 o’clock shouting “I am shot!” and the neighbors at once gathered around, but before he could explain how the affair happened he was dead. A charge from a double - barreled shotgun had plowed through his right side and landed in the roof of the cabin. Kiesow was mar- ried about five years ago, and aiter one day of married life he separated from his wife and obtainéd a divorce. He was 30 years old and was in the employ of the Alameda Water Company. Special Couneil Meeting. A call has been issued by the City Clerk for a_special meeting of the City Council to-night. The subjects included in the call are the awarding of contracts for construc- tion of sewers and authorizing the Board of Public Works to construct an addition to the Board of Health building at a cost not to exceed $499; to instruct the Super- intendent of Streets to repair Union street, between Pwenty-fourth and Twenty-sixth ‘| market. | and after twenty minutes of hard fighting | streets and, among other things, to pass to [ print an ordinance appcr{ioning the revenue of the city. Violating Bicycle Ordinance. Chris Nelson, A. Wibberand N. Taggart, | cyclists from San Francisco, were arrested vesterday for violating the bicycle ordi- nance. The Oakland ordinance is some- what peculiar, as it requires a rider on the sidewalk to dismount every time he meets a foot passenger. The ordinance is never obeyed, except when the foot passenger happens to be an ambitious police officer. Yesterday the three visiting cyclists en- countered an officer, and were required to deposit bail. Employs White Packers. 1. H. Begier commenced packing pears and prunes this week for the Eastern Mr. Begier, who has always em- ployed white labor where possible, has tried the experiment this year of having all his packing done by whites. He now has a number of white' women and girls engaged in packing, and he says theg give pe&fect satisfaction.—San Leandro Stand- i ard. Fight at the Harbor. There was a vicious fight on the water front last night, and although witnessed by hundreds of people no arrests were made. F. Petersen started s discussion in a Thirteenth-street saloon and he was quickly involved in a wordy war with Harry McCarthy. By the advice of friends an TEN MILERECORD BROKEN George A. Nissen Did It in the Acme Club Wheelmen’s Road Race. THE RECORD IS NOW 2545 J. A. Clymer Won the Race and Six Riders Came Within the Former Record. Five and ten mile road races have been | of regular occurrence on Sundays among the wheeling clubs lately, but none have been particularly remarkable, as no reec- | ords have been lowered. The success of a road race is largely dependent on whether or not the existing record is broken, and | looking at it in that light the ten-mile race | of the Aeme Club Wheelmen of Oakland | tractable. Duxbury started on his journey amid the cheers and well-wishes of the crowd of wheelmen present. HORSE BREAKING, Thousands Attend Professor [Gleason’s Exhibitions at Central Park. Central Park contained about 10,000 peo- ple yesterdey afternoon to witness Pro- fessor Oscar R. Gleason’s exhibition of breaking in vicious and nervous horses. There were no accidents as on the pre- vious Sunday and everything passed off smoothly. 7 Secretary Holbrook of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals was an interested spectator, but he did not find it necessary to exercise his authority as on the previous Sunday. Four animals were ;;‘nt through the usual performance by the professor with the help of his assistants to the satisfac- tion of himself and the apparent enjoy- ment of the spectators. The three horses submitted gracefully to the professor’s skill, but the fourth, Dixie, a vicious horse belonging to_C. Arata and brother of Monticello, Napa County, was not so Before the professor got through with him he was, however, thor- oughly cowed. Vacqueros from Monterey County gave CAS M. CASTLEMAN. GEORGE A.

The series of meetings held by Evan- gelist Romig and Professor Hawes under the auspices of the First Christian Church of Alameda concluded last evening in order that the members and friends of that church might have the opportunity of at- tending the services of Rev. Henry Varley and astist in enlarging and extending the work of the Christian Union. The meet- ings have been a succéss and the audiences have been large. Rev. Mr. Romig, in his farewell address last evening, expressed hearty appreciation of the treatment he had received from the press, and also thanked Captain Thompson for the use of his %rounds and the kindnesses extended. A large audience greeted Evangelist Var- ley at the meeting announced for men only at 3 o’clock in Linderman Opera-iouse. His address was an able one, and was well received by the audience. Silver in Trouble. G. W. Silver was arrested late Saturday night for disturbing the peace of his di- vorced wife, living on Centennial avenue. He spent the night in the lock-up in de- fault of bail. Mrs. Silver made complaint at the police station that, upon his visit to the children in accordance with the order of the court, he commenced to abuse her. He has not been prominently before the publie since he involved himself in trouble on account of a charge of forgery. Brief News Notes. The pottery works of N.

Nissen belongs the honor of placing the record at a mark low enough to warrant its staying there for some time to come. He rode the ten miles in 25 min. 45 sec., which is remarkably fast, consid- ering the course, and compares very favor- ably with the time_made for a similar dis- tance by the crack Eastern riders. The race was ridden over the straight- away stretch from ‘High street, Fruitvale, to Haywards. The club set the startin time at 1 p. M., hoping to be favored wit the usual high afternoon winds, which would materially aid ‘he riders, as it would be at their backs all the way. But, while there was some little breeze, it was not nearly as strong as usual, and the racers got little assistance in that direc- tion; therefore their performances were all the more meritorious. There were twenty-four entries in the race, with time allowances varying from nothing to 6 minutes, All started but one of the scratch men, Casey Castleman, who was not well and decided he had bet- ter not ride. W. A. Burke, another scratch man, was also out of condition, and, al- though he started, did not fi in any- where near as fast time as his past per- formances would warrant, Castleman and Burke have just returned from the Sequoia carnival at Eureka, where they did consid- erable racing and sight-seeing, and they were hardly ready for another speed con- | The handicap riders got all the place prizes, The 6-minute men did not finish well, but the 5)4-minute men were all up front at the finish, and one of them, J. A, Clymer, won the race, his actual riding time heing 27 min. 27 sec. He will never ‘be allowed such a start again, it is safe to say.

Nissen, who won the time rize and established a new record, is well Enown to the wheelmen of this State as a very fast and courageous rider. He has competed in many track class B events and is on the March team. Riding ten- mile races is his forte, but at any distance he is a dangerous competitor. The record he made yesterday will stand for some time to come, the only likelihood of its being lowered being in the annual ten- mile road race of the California Associated Cycling Clubs next October, when all the fast riders from the various clubs will com- ete, 5 The officials at the race yesterday were: Captain John Kitchen Jr., starter; W. Sharp, R. B. French, B. C. Lund, M. A. Whi\fden and J. W. Finnegan, timers; E. L. Johnson, 8. G. Scovern, scorers. The arrangements were iperfect, the officials ef- ficient, and everything went off without a hitch. There were 8ix prizes for place, one time rize, and a special prize valued at $25 to he rider breaking the coast record. George A, Nissen wins the two latter. B.J. Sears, A. H. Agnew, H. Hutchinson, J. H. Otey and O. L. Pickard also came within the old record of 27:15. i One of the most successful joint-club runs of the year was that of the Bay City Wheelmen and Imperial Cycling Club to Petaluma yesterday. The riders left on the 8 . M. boat and rode from San Rafael. They enjoyed an excellent lunch in Peta- lums and returned in the afternoon. About forty men from each club attended the run.

Battery C Wins a Trophy and the Champlonship of the Second Regiment, The riflemen assembled in goodly num- bers at the Sheil Mound shooting range yesterday. The light was good, but the wind swept across the range in gusts, making shooting difficult, even to those with fancy windgauges. One of the most interesting contests was between two teams of thirty-five men each from Batteries C arfl E of the Second Ar- tillery Regiment. The match was fora $40 trophy and the championship of the regiment. The conditions were ten shots, possible fifty, with military rifles at 200 yards. The match was won by the men of Battery C, who made 1324 points to E's 1285, a difference of 39 points. The scores made by Battery C were as follows: Captain Charles Boxton 38, First Lieutenant H.

The regular mionthly bullseye medal shoot of the San Francisco Bchuetzen Verein bronght out a large number of Ger- man sharpshooters, who had a fine time before the targets. The contest was for $40, divided into twenty cash prizes, and, while several hundred bullets found the plack disk, the measuring machines that are used to determine the best center shots showed not over two dozen inside of an inch circle. Among the contestants was A. Pape Jr., one of the riflemen who mude such excellent scores at the late rifle tour- naments in the East. His trip did not affect his ability, for out of twenty shots he made thirteen bullseyes, and one of his shots won the second prize. D. B. Faktor, A. Jungblut, Fred Schuster and Henry Wreden, all prize-winners in the East, were among the marksmen. The first ten winners of prizes were: John Lankeman first prize, A. Pape second, John Peters third, A. Bertelson fourth, F. Echuester_fifth, L. Bendel sixth, A. Mocker seventh, Joseph_Stroetgen elghth, ¥, Boeck- man ninth, and F. Otzerota tenth. .

He Clalms That Towr and City Bonds Are Invalid Under the Decision. C. C. Wright of Modesto, the author of theirrigation act which Judge Ross has de- clared unconstitutional, arrived here yes- terday. Mr. Wright was a member of the | Assembly in 1887 when the law was passed, | and has been deeply interested in it ever | since, He went to Washington to argue | the case of the Modesto Irrigation District | vs. Negea, now befere the Supreme Court | of the Urited States. | Last evening at the Lick House he wns‘ asked his views on the decision and said: *We were all very much astonished at the decision. Judge Ross takes the broad ground that water for irrigation purposes is not a public use. It is not now a ques- tion of maintaining the districtlaw. Itis simply a question whether the people will acquiesce 1n_the doctrine that the use of water for irrigation is not a public use. If allowed to stand the public could in no capacity ever exercise the right to use water for irrigation. “Another effect of the decision would be not only to invalidate the irrigation district bonds but also all the town or city bonds where the town or city was incor- Forated under the general statutes. He holds that no opportunity is given prop- erty-owners to test the sufficiency of the petition vresented to the Board of Super- visors for the organization of an irrigation district, and that this deprives them of property without due processof law. A petition for the organization of a town or city under the general statute is presented and heard under a procedure identical with that for a_petition for the organiza- tion of an irrigation district. So if the district law be invalid for this reason, so is the municipal corvoration act. There are probably as many bonds outstanding issued by towns and cities as by irrigation districts, So the decision would resulf in very great disaster outside of mere irriga- tion securities.” Mr. Wright ex?ressed the opinion that the decision would be reversed by the Su- preme Court. “If the decision should finally be affirmed it would mean good-by to irrigation by the public,” he said. “The ultimate result would be that the land- owner would have to buy water as he would merchandise at such prices as would give such a profit to the seller as he may choose to make. To illustrate the great difference it would make to the land- owner, I will give an example. A priyate corporation has constructed a canal on the north side of the Stanislaus River to fur- nish water for irrigation. They charge for a water-right $10 per acre, and in addition charge an annual rental of $1 50 per acre. The cdst of water for twenty years would be $40 per acre, to say nothing of interest on the sums paid. “‘Compare that with the Tipton irriga- tion district, where the original cost of the works was less than $5 per acre, and the cost of maintenance less than 20 cents per acre. Other districts would show similar great advantages over the Private owner- ship of water for irrigation. The Yacht Eleanor’s Party. W. A. Slater and a party of tourists from Nor- wich, Conn., who are cruising around the world on the steam yacht Eleanor, are sojourn- ing at the California Hotel. The yacht sailed for Victorln, recently, and the tourists will g by rail to that port and there meet the yacht and proceed to Alaske. Joy’s tor the Jaded ana Good Health for ali Mankind.
