F STERDAY AFTERNOON Miss Frisco started out on a voyage of dis- covery, determined to find the store where one can furnish a home with _dainty aund lasting furniture and carpets without the need of a lavish ex- penditure of mofiey. Coming down toward Mission street she met a bevy of June brides, and they said: “‘Come with us to Pattosien’s,” and she said, ‘I will.” }‘{0\\' happy she was and claimed a great discovery on her part—a big model Furniture Exposition Building out in the Mission—nothing like it in San Francisco. So, taking off her hat and seating herself in oue of the large rockers in t_lle furnished cottage on the first floor, Miss Frisco told the brides that after seeing all these beautiful housefurnishings so tastefully displayed, she would let some good chap propose to her and have a nice flat or cottage furnished by Pat- ™ OUR FURNITURE DEPT Is overflowing with brilliant bargains and good values, which make shopping elsewhere dull and unprofitable.

HERRIN }Ofiéred Rebates on His Freight If He Would Stand In. Huntington’s Original Plan to Control the Railrcad Commission Was Balked by the Northern Member. HAPTER by chapter the story of W. F. Herrin’s manipulation of the State Board of Rallroad Commissioners is becoming public property. It's a tale of blunders, so far as Mr. Hergin's connection goes, and a tale of gold bricks as well, for Mr. Herrin has blundered sadly, and up in the big building at Market and Montgomery streets it is whispered among the “fourteen heads of departments” that Mr. Huntington, Mr. Herrin's employer, is quite as well aware of that fact as is Mr. Herrin himself. Clouded as it has been by a series of political miscalculations, the scheme of procedure Mr. Herrin has been pursuing in his relations with his men Friday on the board (Blackstock and Laumeister), has been difficult to understand. Mr. Blackstock’s first resolution was one of the things not easy of comprehension. Its glaring reflections upon Judge Morrow and the rem arkable procedure it pro- hl 1 in applying on behalf of the State for the dismissal of the grain rate suits in which the State w defendant werg’ not the things expected of the head of the Southern Pacifi aw dep: ent, nor, for that matter, was Mr. Blacksta second resolution. The (:u'lkfi]?:u the. resolution did not rescind the old grain rate another thing that should not have overlooked. In the light of most recent developments, however, there is some excuse for Mr. Herrin's infractions of Huntington's tenets. Right down at the bottom a mistake in simple fractions is to blame for it all. If the head of the law de- partment had been afflicted with anything in the line of ‘“higher education’” he would have known that two-thirds do not make a whole, any circum- . and knowing this he would never have thought he vhole Board yroll when he had only two of tt E d. original scheme for the control board was unique.

I r.was so_significantl, non-committal that there was no opposition to his candida and Blackstock was, from all accounts, simply a gift. Ever since Mr. Blackstock quit the dea- con business in the Pr an church in Kern County and took to more prof- and the law, he has had a hankering for political office. With of Mr. Herrin he got it at the subsequent election. as already looked upon as the company's own, without a struggle. ight bills ran up into the thousands of ars each year, and the com- pany had had opportunity to extend him numerous courtesies, for which he itable politic the R SRORR SIORS SSORS SROBS SSOR SRCHS SICEE SORS SO = .

Nevertheless Edson was called in to talk it over, and he said he was not antagonistic to the railroad and would do the fair thing. ' At the present time Mr. Herrin_is probably sorry he did not pin Edson down to some more substantial statement. Whether or not the raflroad spent money in his election Idson had always been deeply grateful Be McLaughlin as he does not know, but that the company did offer to reimburse him for the several hun- dred dollars spent in his own is a matter of et and of record.

Laumeister had already started his end of the game by declaring in differ- ent quarters and with considerable nofse that if he should vote for such a measure as Blackstock’s resolution he would be ashamed :o thereafter live in the State. T) n was outlined to the member from.Siskiyou and to the sur- prise of his he flatly declined to stand for it. He sald he was willing to do the fair thing by the railroad, but no more, and he said it emphatically. Her- rin saw his well buiided plans tottering at the first blow, but he didn't give up, On the contrary he set of political machinery ‘the railroad boasts of hut when the sub- résolution came up t be in a position to to work to c sequent meeting, of the bos ckstock for action Edson stuck to it and voted aye only that he migh move to reconsider it at a future meeting. Laumeister at once quit talking and voted as he was told, and he joined forces with Herrin in working on Edson. Every attempt was made to swing him into line. Lindley and Wright gave up about everything else they had to do and worked with Edson. They followed him from his cattle ranch at Ga- zelle to his room at the Occidental in San Francis ducement to get in with his friends. Lindley finally came to him openly and in- timated to him that if he would 'sign his own w bills and att to his own shipping ‘‘things would be all right down below “‘He told me,” said Ed- son, when questioned on the point, “that 1 ou%ht to get in where I would have friends, and that if I would do my own billing I would find things ‘made easy for me down below.”. Like the election expenses, the free freight was also de- clined. Finding their own influence not strong enough, “'rl%ht got his father-in- law, C. W. Clark of Sacramento, to approach Edson while gn a trip to this city. Mr. Clark saw Edson again on the Stockton train while on his way to attend a conference. on the “Stockton differential.” He besought him to stand in with the company, as he knew the resolution was a just- one. His son-in-law, he said, had told him so. Mr. Edson, however, did not consider the -in-law com- petent authority, and Mr. Clark's pleadings resulted in as little did those of the others. “Still confident that Edson would come around, Herrin next lined u some of the company's heaviest meat shippers who were doing business wit: Edson. He selected I k. Moffat, the South San Francisco wholesaler, as the heaviest representative, and Moffat hunted up his man on the evening of the last meeting of the board. He urged every argument of policy and ‘trade, and after an hour's talk gave up the job in disgust. Herrin and Lindley are the only ones left working. “These fellows are after me all the time,” said Edson. “I can’t come to San Francisco but’ they come here to the hotel or stop me on the strect and want to make all sorts of propositions. 1 have no guarrel with the railroad, *but I won't give it any more than it deserves. I did not accept their offer to pay my election expenses for the simple reason that I am able to pay my own ex- 0 and offered him every in- enses and have a disinclination to have any one attempt to buy me. I ignored Andley’s freight proposition for the same reason.
