Duckworth and Secretary A. de la Torre Jr. | GOVERNOR ROMUALDO PACHECO Branches of the League Are to Be Established in Every County in the State. One of the leading and most important | political organizations in this City is the Spanish-American Republican League of California, of which R. R. Duckworth is president and A. de la Torre Jr. is secre- tary, About two months ago some of the lead- ing Spanish-Americans of this City held a meeting in Judge Groezinger’s courtroom for the purpose of organization. The Spanish-Americah voters of this City have not taken an active part in politics in the past, but from the large number that have enrolled since the orgamization of the Load Wheat and Baxsley for Europe. the Spanish-American Republican League will make an active campaign for the sue- cess of the National ticket. The secre- tary, A.dela Torre Jr., is also an active | member, and has given much of his time | to make the organization a success, BUCKMAN's CAMP MAY GO, An Agreement Made With the Health Officer to That Effect. The removal of Buckman’s camp was | vigorously discussea last evening ai a meeting in the grammar school, in tbe | vicinity of the camp, by the members of the local improvementclub. E, C.

Among some of the leading members who are taking an active part are Hon. Valentine Alviso, E. Moreno, Professor R. A. Martinez, D.

This | he attributed to the camp, for on Golden | Gate avenue, which is out of the camp ’district, he found only eighty-one vacant houses in a corresponding area. J.

Mr. Duck- worth is a young man and was born and raised in Monterey County, where for many years he took 2n active parCin Re- publican politics. He came to this City about five years ago to accept a position in the United States Mint, where he remained during Harrison’s administration. He was connected with the admission department during the life of the Mid- winter Fair, and in every position he held he has proved his ability. Since coming to this City he has taken an active part in every campaign, and he is recognized as a leader among the young element of the Republican party. It is his ambition to have a branch of the are held in extreme reverence, although the cemeteries are used as picnic grou league in every county in this State, and | under his leadership it is safe to say that 1ing, for he said that he had seen the Health Officer and that Mr. Backman has executed an agreement with that officer, under bond and forfeit, to remove within thirty days. Mr. Abbott reported that he had visited the camp and that he bad found it in very bad condition. The prob- ability is that the camp will soon move, under the agreement reached with the Health Officer. Your Wife Won’t Object.

INJURESAILING VESSELS Nearly Three Times the Disen- gaged Tonnage in Port There Was Last Year. COLLISION AT MISSION WHARF The Tug Fearless Tore the Mast and Boom Out of the Schooner Newark. Tramp steamers are running the sailing vessels out of the carrying business. The latter are tied up, awaiting charters, in every port in the world, while the tramp makes time and money for her owners. The East Indian trade, the commerce of Australasia and the grain of California is now carried by the steam tramps, and it looks as though the final disappearance of the “‘wind-jammer” had come. At the present time the British tramp steamer Cedar Branch is loading barley at Long Bridge, and the Strathgarry wheat at McNear’s, while the Annandale, Cap- tain Milne, arrived last Thursday night from Tacoma; the Aggi, Captain Hatte- burg, yesterday from Nagasaki, via Vic- toria, B. C., and the Longships, Captain Millons, from Yokohama. All three ves- sels came here in ballast and are under charter to carry grain to Europe. In the mearitime the disengaged tonnage in port is 29,174, or nearly three times as'much as it was in 1895 at this time. Nearly ali the vessels are under the British flag, and’ the majority of them are now at anchor in Mission Bay or at Sausalito. The ‘‘tramp’”’ is not a friend of the “tug,” and in consequence the two are always at war. So far the ‘‘tramp’ has the most points to its credit, and many “'tugs” are idle in consequence. Two of the most powerful tugs in the world are the Retriever and Rescue, employed on the Hoogley River. Since tue “tramps” | have gone into the Indian trade the sail- | ing vessels have withdrawn, and_the tow- | | boat business has fallen away. Both the | tugs named are for sale, and the ‘‘tramp” reigns supreme in the Orient. s The tug Vigilant will make an excursion to the Farallones and Cordell Banks next Sunday morning. Captain Clem Randall wiil bein command of the steamer, and his youngest brother will have charge of the party. The start will be made from Folsom-street wharf at 1 A. ., and, as the moon wil! be in its last quarter, the caich of fish should be a good one. Over sixty passengers are expected to goout on the tug, and Captain Randall asserts that all will have a good time. The United States gunboat Bennington started for Port Los Angeles yesterday at 11A. M. At that place she will join'the Philadelphia, Monadnock ana Monterey, 1n order to take partin the annual target practice. After the exercises the vessels will return to San Francisco. For a month past youngsters have been robbing vessels that have h ned to dock north of Market street. Yesterday little Willie Plillips, who lives at 222 Broadway, was turned over to Captain Dunleavy by his father, and as he proves to be one. of the ringleaders of the gang, he will be sent to Whittier. He has given the names of the other boys who assisted him in his depredations, and the other members of the gang Wwill be arrested to- day. ‘}he tug Fearless did coysiderable dam- age to the gasoline schooner Newark vesterday. The tug was entering the slip between Mission 2 and Howard 2 when she ran into the schooner and car- ried away the latter’s mainmast and main- boom. . The mast was snapped in two places and the schooner was otherwise damaged. The Newark was from Bowens Landing, and while awaiting a berth the captain tied up alongside the foot of Mission street. Capiain Dan Haskell of the Fear- less was attempting to enter the slip in order to secure the Cedarbank and tow her to Port Costa to load wheat. While making his I nmn%the tug ran into the schooner and did the damage mentioned. Chiet Engineer Holmes of the Harbor Commission has been reappointed by the members of the board. He has ail the worl¢ of the new ferry depot at his fingers’ ends, and the Commissioners were anxicus to0 hold h‘iim in his position until the work is finished. The steamer Australia will sail for Hon- olulu to-day and the Zealandia will take her place at the wharf. The latter has just completed a run to Central America L)r the Pacitic Mail Steamship Company, but as the corporation has nowa number cf spare boats the Zealandia will be re- turned to the John D. Spreckels & Bros. Company and the old schedule will be re- sumed on the mail compsny’s route. The Zealandia will be overhauled .and sent to Martinez, where she may lie at anchor for another six months. J. Sennett of the Golden Shore Market had a narrow escape last Friday morning. His boat capsized outside the s and for twelve hours he d around at the mercy of the wind and waves. He saw three tramp steamers pass ip, but could attract no one's attention. Fi he | was picked up by one of the pilot-boats The British Tramp Steamers Annandale, Aggi and Longships Arrived in Port Yesterday. They Will and brought into port. Senneit was picked up only just in time, as a few min- utes after he was in the pilot-boat’s dingy his Whitehall sank. OCEAN VIEW ROUSED. Residents Protest Against Supposed Mis- representation and Corporation Rule. Recent published accourits of malaria and other undesirable things at Ocean View have caused some of the most prom- inemt residents of that suburb to protest against what they consider misrepresenta- tion. Among others William N. Cook, A. Haring and George R. Moore have taken the matter deeply to heart. In acommu- nication to THE CALL they thus detail some of their grievances: Are the people of Oceau View to be taxed for the purpose of protecting the property of & monopolistic corporation like the Spring Val- ley Water Company, even if i ere true that the refuse from the dwelling: ables, ete., of this portion of the City finds i ay into Lake Merced, which it does not? Is it not a fact that long before the Spring Valley Water Com- pany owned Lake Merced ranch, and at the time Mahoney wanted to sell the property to the City for the City’s water supply, that com- pany denounced the waters of the lake as unfit for household Pyrposes on account of s being brackish (mixed with sea water), but di- rectly after the Spring Valley Comgug had taken the property off the hands of the Hiber- nia Bank the water was found to be exaellent? The cattle and dairy ranches of San Mateo County in the immediate neighborhood are the principal source from which Lake Merced receives its objectionable drainage. 1f any people are to be taxed for the tunnel which the water company is building, it shouid be those residing in San Mateo County, and not the poor inhabitants of Ocean View. The lake is too remote to receive any of the sewage, and the company itself did not think of contaminating environments when it rented the lake’s contiguous lands to Bill Hall for pasturing his thousands of cattle, Through Islais Creck and into the bay is the natural drainage outlet for this portion of the City, when sufficiently mpulned. and not into the ocean by way of ke Merced. It is the duty of the Spring Valley Water Company mgmwcz its source of suprly, instead of its endeavoring to tax the'people‘of this section | $40,000 to $50,000 for the purpose of con- structing an outiet upon the company’s land. But this is not all. There is to be run a | central sewer of about half a mile in length, | the cost of which they wisely do not state, and | without the cross-stréet sewer-pipes and their connection with the dwellings the outlay for central and main sewers would be thrown away and benefit only the Sprknrg Valley Water Company and the contractors. Then the grad- ing and macadamizing, according to the offer of one of the pubiic-spirited friends of the property-owners, would be 70 cents per front 100t, or $17 50 per lot, making for the whole of Ocean View the snug sum of $88,000, exclu- sive of the sewer-laying, while the streets around the Masonic Cemelery were macadam- ized for 40 cents a front foot. 3 But would this enormous outlay prevent the | contamination of Lake Merced? Certainly | not. The racetrack, with its great numbe. uf | horses and their attendants and the multitude of people congregating there daily, does more harm to the iake waters than the inhabitanis of Ocean View could do in decades to come. ——————— CAUGHT IN THE ACT.

Chairman Doolan of the Enter- tainment Committee Is Interested. ; WOULD BE A DRAWING CARD. Mr. Erickson of Oakland Invites Mayor Sutro and Mayor Davie to Fly With Hm. It is barely possible that a competition between flying-machines may be made one of the features of the Mechanics’ In- stitate Fair. Chairman Doolan of the en- tertainment committee has corresponded with inventors oM aeroplanes and flying- machines, and last evening Mr. Doolan said: ‘‘There bas been a great deal of talk re- cently about flying-machines, and you would be surprised if you could learn the amount of interest which propositions to navigate or fly torough the air Lave called into existence. A proposition has been made by Charles Erickson of Oakland to fly from the Mechanics’ Pavilion to the State Capitol at Sacramento during the progress of the fair. Now, in my opinion, it would be better, if Mr. Erickson desires to give an exhibition of his machine by a long-distance fly to Sacramento, that the tést should take place toward the end of the season, which would permit the enter- tainment committee, possibly, to get other flying-machines here and so institute a competition which would prove a draw- ing card if the tests were attended with any degree of success. “*Not little scientific interest would at- tach to such an exhibition. If it succeed- ed the name of the Mechanics’ Institute would be coupled with it. I do not know what any of these inventions can perform. There are possibly three sorts of ma- chines that might be entered. The first is Mr. Erickson’s, Possibly Dr. Smith, who bas an aluminum cylinder deyice may compete, and then there is Professor Langley of the Smithsonian Institution at ‘Wasnington. Dr. Smith tells me that he saw Professor Langley fly half a mile re- cently. Part of the aim of the Mechanics’ Institute is to encourage inventions. I think that we could afford to offer quite a large prize, perhaps as much as $1000, for the successful competition in a flying- match, under certain conditions to be specified.” Carl Erickson of Oakland has invited Mayor Sutro to go with him in his’ air- ship Christopher Columbuson the after- noon of September 1, when he “‘will at- tempt to sail from the roof of the Mechan- ics’ Pavyilion to the dome of the State Cap- itol at Sacramento. In his invitation to Mayor Sutro Mr. Erickson reassuringly says: “Do not be alarmed in the least, as 1 guarantee a safe trip. I have asked Mayor Davie of Oakland to accompany us. I trust I may bave ycur presence at an event which will go down into history as one of the greatcst achieved wonders of the nineteenth century.” Whether Mayor Sutro and Mayor Davie will make a flight { with Mr. Erickson from the Mechanic: Iunstitute do not know. There is no doubt that the presence of the two Mayors of the bay cities would lend distinction and enhance the value of the drawing card. Little is known about Mr. Erickson’s ap- paratus. The tone of his letter to Mayor Sutro indicates that at least he has confi- dence in his inventien in its practical ap- plication. Dr. Smith of this City, who has an in- vention which has already been described in Tre CaArL, said last evening that he would not be able to have his apparatus ready for competition during the fair sea- son. He will enter a model in the fair, which will be on exhibition. He will not be able to get aluminum enough to make a machine for an out of door test in the time allotted. The aluminum has to be brought from Pittsburg and it is very difficult to procure much. As a matter of fact, when he was making his model he was unable to get the aluminum he needed, and consequently the gas cylinder which will lift his apparatus had to be made of zinc, which is heavy. The exhibition of Professor Lancley’s flying-machine, which Dr. Smith wit- nessed, took place a few Sundays ago on the Potomoc River, a few miles below Washington, D. U. Dr. Smith went with Professor Langley at the invitation of the latter. They took a scow and dropped down the river some distance, and then Professor Langley flew with his machine. First he rose about 75 feet and then he sailed off against the wind and came down when he wished into the river. Professor Langley’s apparatus consists of a propeller, which he treads with his feet, and the'motion of the propellor shoved himaap against the wind. Dr. Smith ex- Pnuud doubt whether Professor Lang- ley’s contrivance would do so well going with the wind, the tendency of coinciding NEW TO-LAY—AMUSEMENTS.

One fact is positively established and that is that Ayer’s Sarsa- parilla will purify the blood more perfectly, more economi- cally and more speedily than any other remedy in the mar- ket. There are fifty years of cures behind this statement; a record no other remedy can show. You waste time and money when you take anything to purify the blood except s Ayer’s Sarsaparilla with the direction of the air current being to force the machine downward. Professor Langley’s machine weighs about 1600 pounds. What course Pro- fessor Langley would take in reference to accepting an invitation to come to San Francisco Dr. Smitn could not say, but thought it somewhat doubtful because Professor Langley has not yet secured a patent. It may be recollected that Benator Lodge introduced a bill to appropriate $100,« 000 or the encouragement of flying-mae chine inventions, the sum named to go to the inventor who can secure an aerial speed of thirty miles per hour, carry 400 pounds weight and sail in any direction freely. The bill was not reported back from the committee. The entertainment committee of the Mechanic’s Institute may be able to report progress a little later on. Wants His Trunks.
