PLAIN WORDS FOR THE EBELL Dr. Myra Knox Says Prog- ress Is Superior to a Study of Browning, God Has Put More Inconsistent People in Oakland Than Elsewhere, If an Ancient Greek Were to Come to the Pacific Athens He Would Die. OAELAND OFFIcE SAN Francisco Carn 908 Broadwav, Oct. 1. } “Had we not better drop Browning, music and art for a time, and outside of the Ebell organize improvement clubs in every ward in the city to create a publicsentiment ia favor of well-paved, PULITICIANS ARE NOCH POZILED | Frank Jordan Announces That He Wants No County Honors. Has He Been Harmonizing the Republican Party for An- I other Purpose ? Will Retire to the Seclusion of a Law Office. OsxrLAND OFFICE SAN FraNcisco CALL,) 968 Broadway, Oct. L. At 10 o’clock this' morning Frank Jor- | dan announced that he did not intend to try to succeed himseif as County Clerk, and sixty minutes after there were almost as many chronicoffice-seeksrs announcing Discrimina’'ed Against |SCHOOL DIRECTOR MYRA KNOX, M.D,, Who Says God Has Qakland’s Intelligznce. clean streets, the planting of trees and the purchase of land for a park Dr. Myra Knox, a School Director and the only one of her sex honored by the ns of Oakiand by election and re. election to public office, uttered the above sentiment at the last luncheon of the Ebell Club, and it has created more than ord nary interest, Dr. Knox has always been occapied with social and pubiic improvement. After one term as Sctool Director she was nomi- nated by every politic: perty on the ticket and had no opposition 1o a second term. As chairman of the High Scnool Board sie made a record .or execntive ability, and now as a member of the Ebell Club Dr. Knox has outlined a future for thie women of this city that she declares is practicai, and so far as the general public is concerned of more value than the study of Browning. The paper read by Dr. Knox is at once a reflaction upon and a tribute to the value of the wornen of Oakiand. Sune said that the women shouid give more thouzht to the city’s needs and show that there is enough ‘practical common-sense and en- ergy among them to carry out greatly neeled improvements and reforms. “We sit in our homes,” she said, “and call this eity the Athens of the Pacific, and when we drive out we hold “the no-e with one hand and with the other clutch the vehicle to prevent being thrown out. If an ancient Greek should return and visit onr Athens, cet a whiff of our marsh and ride over Twelfth-street’ dam, he would immediately drop dead again. Everybody insists that we have the worst »tree's on earth, yet, when our 8 reet Superintendent tries to do someih ing and have the worst streets resurfaced at a cost of 0 cents a front foot, the property-own- ers protest ana he is pow-rless. God may huve made more inconsistent people than we are, butin no other instance has he allowed so many to get together. *‘A handful of men have iabored for a long time to redeem a piece of ill-smell- ing, disease-bre-ding land in West Oak- land, to conver: it into. a park and 1o make it a thing of beauty for rich and poor alike, and we women have done nothing. [he boulevard will be vaiit and a park purchased in the foothills, the nd avout Sixteenth street and along the car tracks will b.ossom with flowers, and then the straneers will come within our gates. At present ne looks, sniffs and passes over 1o the other side, and we women must help to keep him here. There is more public spirit displayed in any small town in the West than we bave. In Brooklyn the women have so much local pride that they cause re. ceptacies to be placed on ihe street cor- ners to receive the refuse that is aliowed to blow about our streets, and in Chicago Jane Adams, the saniiary inspecior of her ward, has one of the cleanest districts in any metropolis. “*As the city grows we need more school- hounses, but whenever a public iraprove- mentis meniioned sume one objects and as a rule the less they own and the less interest they have in the city the more they object. Our schoolteacners ate over- warked and even Now in some instances schoolroom s are overcrowdea. “*Here 1s where women ought to create a-more generous pubdiic spirit. Women can do much more than ‘men. Men are antagonized by busine s and polities. [t one man advocates a part-cutar improve- ment another cries ‘boodie.” the. cry is taken up and th- project is killed. Women are not hampered by business nor politics and I believe they will woik for the good of the city. “So_let us organize our club and con- suit witn our Councilmen ‘and Street Sn- perintendent and make them understand that in all ;0od work we are with them, and in doing this the Ebe!l Society will have originated a mo~t vaiuable era.” Died in a Sanitarium. OAKLAND, CaL,Oct. L.—Lee Chung, the Cbinaman who was removed from the City Prison-to a private sanitarinm abou: two weeks 2g0, owIng to a stroke of pa- ralysis, died at an early hour this morn- ing, sgeil 63. He was sentenced on April 23 for six months for tty larceny. An effort was made to place him in the Re- ceiving Hospiial, but the auihorities re- fused to admit bim, that they were out for the place, although there will be no convention for nearly a year. Under ordinary circumstances the de- cision of a coun'y official to withdraw from politics would create no great amount of interest, but during the past year Clerk Jordan has deveoped into an act ve polit- ical leader. During the pastsix months he has succeeded in harmonizing more conflictinz elements in the Republican party than have been harmonized for five years. During this iime he has permitted the impression to goout 1hat hé was work- ing primarily to succeed himself, although e was frequenily been advised that he was doing too mueh politics on behalf of friends and tuus hurting his own volitical ambitions, During the last month Fiank Jorddn | bas beed the leading spirit i~ keeping be- fore tne public the name of Dr. Fardee as a candidate for Governor, and has been considered as ihe ma Owing his election as he did 10 the great campiizn maae i: his favor by D-. Pardee, it was but natural that Jordan shouid try an: return the obfigition. There is, however, considerable difficulty experienced in making State and county campaigns at the same time, and Frank Jordan’s positiva assertion that be is no loncer in politics on his own vehalf is taken by many as indicating that he in- tends to be perfectiv at liberty io doall possible for his stunch friends, *Itistrue,” said Clerk Jordan this aft- ernoon, “trat I am out of politics and wi-u evervbody to know that 1 bave no desire what:ver to succeed myself. I-hall nol resign. but by tne expiration of my term 1 expect to be avie to obtain a diplo- ma from tue Supreme Court to practice law, and shall join the firm of my brother, W. H. Jordan.” These are my plans for the future at this time, 1 cannot say what reason exists for my change of mind, but I am anxious to make a change.

OAKLAND, AL, Oct. 1.—The Master Bakers' Protective Association of Alameda County has issued a circular in which it says: "*At our last regular meeting six- teen membars were present, and it was decided ‘unanimously that we make only. one sized loaf of -bread, namely, one pound of doug:; that the price of each loat 10 the wholesale trade will be 4 cents and to the re.ail trede 5 cents.” This rule will cause on the whole a raise in the price ol bread. The competi- tion between bakers has been so great that asmany as four loaves have frequently been sold for a dime. With the rise in the pr.ce of flour consequent uron the en- hance value of wheat this competition became ruinous, ana the bakers have com- vined to fix a un.firm price.

Very Narrow in the Year 1863, 0AxLAND OFFicE SAN FraNCIscO CALL, 908 Broadway, Oct. 1. } Assessor Dalton is not at all uneasy about the suit that the Supervisors may biing against him !or not assessing the water front. In fact, Mr. Dalton is of the opinion that the price he wculd be calied upon o pay would be comparatively cheap in view of the large notori-ty he would gain and the fact that tuere is an election next year. A careful stady of the water-front de- cision made by Mr. Dalton is the cause of his easy frame of mind. He uas dis- covered that should he be called upon to pay the taxes on the portion of the prop- erty given to the railroad company which he refused to assess it would eost him just $360. Mr. Daiton bas compiled the following figures: The total assessed value of the water front made in the last year (1894) of Assessor Leckie’s term was §176,925. This assessment 1s made on about 7500 acres He figures out that about a fifteenth of this amount, or 500 acres, has peen awarded to the railroad company. On the same valu- ation this portion is worth a litte less than §12,000, and at the rate of taxation would be $120 per year, or $360 for the| three years iv has been off the roll. ‘This matier is not fully understood or ven partially understood,” said the As-! sessor to-day. **The high ana low ude | water lines referred to in the decision are | not those of 1897, but those of 1852, and in that year there was quite a steep bank | rusning from tve lake to the creosote works in West QOakland, and there were only a few feet between the two tide lines. | Now supposiog that Mr. Leckie’s valua- tion was searly right, “The strip awarded by the court to the railroad company wouid not be equaliy valuable with he water front and tue up-| lands that are taken away fromit. In| fact in some places the land givean to the company 1s practically valueless on ‘ac- count of the narrowness between the iwo tide lines. “The railroad company has clearly lost the foot of Brosdway and the city has the | | right to “open the streets 1o the State's properiy ali along the front, consequently it will ve a very difficult matter o decer- mine the property lines under the deci- sion. - Certainiy 1 cannoi be supposed to interpret the decision with sufficient ex- actness to determine that whicn many prominent lawyers are confessing they do not clearly understand.” OPEN CELLAR DOORWAY, While Looking ata Piclure in a Window Rev.
