Alameda has just been heard from and there are enough ambitious poli- ticians' in the Encinal city willing to sacrifice their personal feelings in the matter if they shall be forced by their friends to take a salary from the county for the next four years. There are quite a few Democrats in Alameda. During the past two years they have been split into all kinds of factions, but now they are coming to- gether again in time to make a claim | to some of the offices that will be fllled next November. Eugene Woodin, an ex-Chief of the Fire Department, would like to go to the Legislature, and Cy Brown, who was beaten by Supervisor Talcott three years ago, and is now on the Board of Educatign, will proba- bly be persuaded to run again. City Attorney Taylor yearns to rep- | resent his district in the State Senate, and Fred St. Sure may be persuaded to run for a Superior Judgeship. Plum- ber Furey, who once won a big prize in a lottery, may run for Supervisor, as he has now great faith in his own good luck. If Joe Lanktree thought he could win a county office he would no doubt take the field. Then come Alameda’s Republicans. Tax Collector Barber has no objection to holding his office; Chief of Police togers has already nominated himself for the next Sheriff; Judge Ellsworth is also an Alamedan, and other candi- dates are coming forward all the time. Out in the county there is also a de- | sire to have som#éthing from the county pie-counter. Heretofore Oakland and Alameda have gobbled up everything in sight, and this greediness has helped to defeat the ticket. Now Ar- | thur Feidler of Livermore thinks he | should have something, Dan McCarty- a San Leandro editor, believes some- thing should go to his town, and Mis- sion San Jose is never without a can- didate. PARKS AND BOULEVARDS. An Ordinance Recommended Call- ing for an Election for Bonds. OAKLAND, Jan. 2L—The judlclary committee of the City Council, after a two-hour discussion. has recommended to the Council the issuance of $500,000 worth of bonds, bearing 4 per cent interest. The ordinance providing for these bonds also provides for the following expenditures of the moneys realized from the sale of the bonds: To acquire 150 acres of the Sather tract | at $1250 an acre—a total of $157,500. To acquire a twenty-five-acre frontage on Lake Merritt from the Adams Point 152 feet wide, ledmont power- house at the bend of the west arm of the lake, around the entire lake front of the tract to the east end of Perry street near the head of the east or main arm of the | lake, $100,000. Government Officials Are Experting the Books in San Fran- cisco. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, | 908 Broadway, Jan. 21. To-morrow afternoon the New York brewery at Haywards will be sold by the Sheriff. Three wecks ago it was closed down under an attachment by Sherift White to satisfy a judgment by H. F. Nebas for a claim of $1018. An internal revenue officer from San Francisco called at the brewery yester- day and found that there was a disagree- ment between the number of revenue stamps issued and those accounted for, and so he took away the books to San Francisco so that they could be experted. This discrepancy and subsequent action of the revenue officer may lead to com- plications that may stop the sale, for the result may have a bear on the titie that could be given with the brewery in the event of the sale. The brewery is not a very ln-rg:‘ lace, but for some time it did a fair uYnen. Peter Butt, the proprietor, says the reve- nue stamps can all be uccounted for. On the first of the month they were duly in- spected and found correct, and, as he has done no business since that time, he is at a loss to account for the suspiclon of the officer who called yesterday. —_———— One twenty-fifth rt pa of world’s coal flelds is British. the To extend and improve West Oakland Park, $30,000.

Ockland News Items. 2 OAKLAND, Jan. 21.—Three new cases of diphtheria were reported at the Health Office since yesterday morning.

Hobart officiated, and many ploneers were in attendance. often | | Councilman Rowe, who Introduced the resolution into the Council, refer- ring to the new charter, belleves that above all things the city should make its own laws in regard to street im- provements. At present Oakland is governed by the Vrooman act, which provides that a majority protest can | stop any improvements for six months. Mr. Rowe believes that this gives ob- structionists too much power, and he thinks that the people will vote for a measure that will decrease this objec- tion. Another suggestion made is that the City Council consist of seven Council- men instead of eleven. There are seven wards In this city and it has al- ways been a puzzle to the citizens why after each ward has been given a rep- resentative on the beard it should be considered necessary to elect four | Councilmen “at large.” Exactly the | same condition prevails with the Board of Education. Mr. Rowe believes that seven Councilmen should be elect- ed and should be paid a salary that | would enable them to give all their time to the city. | They would have charge of the po- lice and fire departments and street | department, and do away with the present peculiarly situated Board of Public Works and police and fire com- missions. City Engineer Clement favors the | plan, declaring it is nonsense to have | an engineer in a city where his office | i1s as busy as it is in Oakland ham- | pered with police and fire business. | He does not believe that an engineer should have to pass upon the samples of lead pencils used in the public schools or be bothered with applicants | for places on the city departments. There are many other intricacies that have been crying for a new charter to remedy them for years, but the first | business will be to select able Free- holders sufficiently conversant with the frame a practical and honest charter.

He then returned to the wood and sat down on the pile. Cohen continued to load it up in the wagon, and when he reached Andrada the assault oc- curred for which the warrant for Cohen's arrest was issued by Justice Morris. —_———— Street Paving Contract Stopped.
