NEW PETROLEUM BILL AMENDMENT KEENLY WATCHED Answer From WashingtonIs Expected Concerning Its Status. i 1d of Oil Production Continues to Extend and Work of Develop- ment Is Attended With In- teresting Features. Fi The bill to amend the petroleum act, the passage of which is urged by the California Miners’ Association, was de- vised to place the mineral locator of pe- troleum on an equality with the tun nel miner. The mineral lands com: mittee of the Miners' Assoclation telegraphed to Washington to flnd out how the measure’ stands. The principal provisions are as follows: Patents may be secured to land contain- ing petroleum or other mineral oils or other hydrocarbons, and chiefly valua- ble therefor, under the provisions of the laws relating to placer mineral claims. Locators 0f such claims shall have three months after working thelr claims on the ground within which they begin for the purpose of completing the covery, and such _discovery, when made while working such claim, shall relate back and have effect nunc pro tunc as though made before or at the time of working the claim upon the ground; no adverse rights to any part of the 'claim can be acquired by other parties within three months, nor there after while work Is being prosecuted with reasonable diligence; ailure to prosecute work for six months shall “be | considered an abandonment of the claim, and shall work forfeiture; land contain- ing petroleum which has been filed upon, claimed or improved as mineral, but not patented under the provisions of the pro- may be held and patented un. ct, the same as if such filing, claim or improvement were subsequent to the passage of the act, and the owners shall have three months after the approv- al of the act to file coples of their loca- | tions in the local land office.

This will have the effect of retarding de- velopment, but it will also perform the good service of knocking the hot air out’of an unwarranted boom with its consequent wrecks.” The extent to which petroleum is em- ployed to keep down dust upon the streets and roads of California is interesting. At Redding fifteen miles of streets = are sprinkled at a cost of about 8 cents per running foot, and the city paid $4416 gor the service last year, the property-owners anh'lg individually a like amount. San ernardino sprinkles twenty-five miles of country roads at a cost of 4214 per mile for the season. The work is performed by a company under contract. The subject of oiled roads has been studied to some extent by the San Joaquin Valley Com- mercial Assoclation’ in a Guest for bet- ter highways for the valley. An oil company composed exclusively of women has been formed at Los Angeles, to be known as the Women's Paclfic Coast Oil Company. Mrs. Mary Lang- ley is the president; Mrs. L. A.

Judge Cabaniss Releases Her on Nominal Cash Bail—The Actor and His Wife’s Rival Disappear. 3 —_— “My name {s Grace Addison Vroom,” said a blonde little woman to Corporal | Cills at police headquarters yesterday morning, “and I have come to surrender myself for shooting my husband last/ Tuesday. You can do anything you like with me, put me in jail and keep me there forever, as my heart is broken, and I wish | 1 were dead.” | The woman was taken to Captain Sey mour, and between sobs and tears told | the story of her husband's infidelity and | why she shot bim. ““He struck me on the face and on the breast and arm before I shot him,” she sald, “and I can bring witnesses who will testify that the marks of the blows can yet be seen on my breast and arm. He had turned to bolt the door to prevent me from leaving the room when I fired the shot. I might have had some pity for him if he had shown any regret for his cruel conduct, but he only sald with a fiendish leer that he thought he was a good gen- eral, but I had been more than a match for him, He has ruined me financially and broken my heart.” Judge Cabaniss happened to be holding court_discharging the ‘““drunks” and Cap- tain Seymour sent for him. Mrs. Vroom repeated her story to the Judge, who was strongly moved by the tearful recital, and with that galiantry tor which he is noted he suggested that the charge should be L O e e S assault with a deadly weapon, but the | captain demurred and ordered the charge of assault to murder to be made against | her. The Judge with the consent of the | captain fixed her balt at $25. She prom- ised faithfully to be in court this morn- ing, and Detectives Dillon and McMahon | were detailed to accompany her to her | home at 407 Van Ness avenue to enable her to get the money. They returned with her and she deposited the $25 with Warrant and Bond Cierk Greeley and \.as | released from custody. i The police learned yesterday that Fred- | erick Vroom, the wounded husband, had gone to Seattle, probably on his way to| Cape Nome, and as he will not be here to | swear to a complaint or prosecute the wcase will no doubt be dismissed. The young woman, Helen Morrell, who alienated Vroom's affections from his wife, has also disappeared from the city and no trace of her can be found.

Copyright, 1900, by Seymour Eaton, —_—— VI. THE WHIG PARTY. (Concluded.) BY JESSE MACY, LL. D. In spite of the fact that the Whigs had won the campaign of 184) without the an- nouncement of party principles. they were by no means without decided opinions up- on many subjects of public import. Har- rison’s few speeches had frankly pro- nounced in favor of a national bank. “if necessary,” of a credit system and a paper | currency; while he declared himself to be against the use of Government patronage for party purposes and against the en- croachment of the executive upon the Legislature. He also pledged himself to a single term, the Whig one-term theory being as Tyler averred in the heat of de- bate, “tnat greatest of all reforms.” The Cabinet was wisely chosen from the ablest men of the party, and Included at first both Webster and Clay. But Ciay eclined Cabinet honors, preferring the freedom of the Senate. The party entered upon its tenure of power with the happi- .—0—9—0—9—0—6—0—0»0—@+04—®—«3 DANIEL WEBSTER. R e e L aa o el ool oot So ot 2ot dn s o J est prospects. Its Congressional majority was large and its relations with the Pres- ident harmonious, while it was in substan- tial agreement as to its policy. A President Without a Party. These high hopes were speedily dashed to the ground by the sudden death of the President just a month from the inaugu- ration day. For the first time a Vice Pres- | ident became President. Tyler's views in Clay was even ade to appear an ens emy of protection. Thus hoodwinked, Pennsylvania. the stronghold of protec- tion, with her twenty-six electoral votes, went Democratic, And the Whigs were forced, after all, to meet the question of annexation. Clay had expressed views satisfactory to the moderate anti-slavery men and which at- tracted also the anti-slavery Democrats. But the Southern Whigs urged him to modify his position, and unwisely he un- dertook to please all sides. His “Ala- bama letters” gave with some reserve approval to Texas annexation and af- firmed that the subject of slavery “ought not to affect the question one way or the other.” This was fatal. Henceforth the great Whig leader stood before his eoun- trymen a political trimmer—a man_ will- ing to sacrifice his principles for votes. He had weakened himself in the North gmhmu strengthening himself in the outh. The election grievously disappointed tha Whigs. Though the popular vote was al- most equally divided, Polk had an elec- toral majority of sixty-five. Twice nore the Whig party was to join battle with its enemies in a Presidential contest, but never again would it come befors the country as a party of genuine convictions. Its career has associated the name Whig with certain doctrines, which. however, the party has feared to put forward in campaigns, and when it has mustered courage to do so.it has been beaten. With a magnificent array of great men for party leaders, with a worthy grougunt political principles to uphold, the Whigs nevertheless failed to effect what was rightly expected of them, for lack of fidel- ity to real conviction and genuine politi- cal morality. The Liberty Party in 1844. A convention of Abolitionists organized as the Liberty party in 180 and nomi- nated a national ticket. Their 7069 votes had no effect upon the election and at- tracted no attention from politicians. But it was the rise upon the far herizon of a cloud no larger than a man's hand which was ere long to blot out the sun. In 1844, aiter Clay’'s unlucky attempt to occupy both sides of the annexation ques- tion, a great defection of anti-slavery Whigs swelled the ranks of the Liber party. This was the real cause of Clay's defeat. The 300 anti-slavery votes were drawn mainly from his party. But for his temporizing attitude it 1s probable that the Abolitionists would have made no nominations. But the appearance of Clay’s Alabama letters just before their convention gave unexpected importance to anti-slavery action. It was in effect the Liberty party that elected Polk and annexed Texas.

It has such unusual attractions In the way of scenery and opportunities for pleasur- able pursuits that it only needs to be well known to become the foremost pleasure ground of the West. For camring, hunting, fishing and aii manner of beneficial recreation it is prob- ably without an equal, all other advan- tages considered, and few places are known that surpass it for ()’res of the heroic_grandeur in scenery. Its climate is healthful in a high degree and the con- veniences for enjoyable habitation are to be found in dozens of inviting places along the line of the great Shasta route. The ease and cheapness with which this delightful country can be reached from the thickly populated centers is naturally the key note of its rapid growth in public AVOT. lColonel ‘Willlam H. Menton, the well- known excursion passenger agent of the Southern _Pacific Company, will be in charge of the party and will see to it that excursionists are well cared for. —_—————— Bunko Men Arrested.

Things had been turning their way. Their be- loved Clay was now at last to lead them to victory. He was nominated by accla- mation with the wildest enthusiasm and he stood upon a platform of his own mak- ing. This declared for a tariff. for land distribution, for economy and a well- regulated currency. It avowed hostility to executive usurpation, but said net a word about Texas, the real issue of the campaign. The Whigs ardently hoped that the Democrats would nominate Van Buren, who opposed annexation, that the question might not figure in the contest. Van Buren was indeed the leading can- didate before the Democratic conventioa, and but for the adoption of a new rule declaring two-thirds of the votes of the convention necessary to a choice he might have been the nominee. James K. Polk, a pronounced annexationist, but al- most an unknown man, was nominated and a platform was approved denying most of the F!‘lnclples adopted by the Whigs and declaring “the annexation of Texas" to be a ‘“great American measure.” The Whigs, “the party of great men,” were now really led by them. A ratifica- tion meeting of young Whigs was ad- dressed by a splendid array of orators. ‘Webster ignored past jealousies and spoke in warm culogy of his great rival. Clay felt that at last the glittering prize for which he had so long striven was within his grasp. There seemed no question of defeat by this puny Democratic cham- plon: But Clay was, after all, hampered y_his brilllant “record.”” and Polk had none. Besides, Democratic party discip- line was firm. Dissensions disappeared as the party lash whipped the recalcit- rant into line. Clay fought against odds. His long ser- vices in the cause of protection were by a bold Democratic trick brougnt to naught. Polk, the free trader, was made to write a letter declaring in a vague T great nterests of the whots btort e of wi - and one of _the = A GOOD COMPLEXION Depends on Good Digestion. This is almost an axiom, although use ually we are apt to think that cosmetics, face powders, lotions, faney soaps, ete., are the secrets for secdring a clear com- plexion. But ail these are simply super- ficlal assistants. It is impessible to have a good complex~ ion unless the digestive organs perform their work properly: unless the stomach by proverly digesting the food taken into it furnishes an abundance of pure blood, a good complexion is impossible. This is the reason so many ladies are using Stuart’'s Dyspepsia Tablets, because they promptly cure any stomach trouble and they have found out that perfect di- gestion means a perfect complexion and one that does not require cosmetics and powders to enhance its beauty. Many ladies diet themseives or deny themselves many articles of food solely in order to keep their complexion clear. When Stuart’s Dyspepsia tablets are used no such dieting is necessary; take these tablets and eat all the good, wholesome food you want and you need have no fear of indigestion nor the sallow, dull com- K&:!ion which nine women out of ten ve, solely because they are suffering from 'some form of indigestion. Bear in mind that beauty proceeds from ’ood health, good health resuits from per- ect. digestion and "3 have advanced the st argument to induce every man e tia aive this spleadid’ Temsedy & e uart's Dyspepsia Tablets can be found in drug stores and costs but 30 cents per P there ts any dera of stomach or howels they will Temove it 5 the resuitant effects are E:d health and a clear,
