HE Stockton Mail devotes much space to what T it seems to think is a discussion of public owner- ship of public utilities, but it mistakes a reit- erated personal attack on the proprietor of The Call for discussion of an abstract principle or a concrete Generalizing from the supposed personal state of the owner of this paper, the Mail concludes that whatever we say about public ownership has be- hind it the personal motive. As well might the Mail say that if a man proceed to demonstrate that the hemp crop is unprofitable it is because he had a rela- tive hanged. The profit of the hemp fiber is a fact demonstrable in the nature of things, and that hemp rope has choked a felon has nothing to do with the matter. The Mail then proceeds to an analogy between a sewer system and a watér supply, supposing the sewers to be in public ownership. But the analogy fails because sewers are constructed not at the cost of the general public but at that of those who use them by a frontage tax. Main sewers are built at the expense of the district drained. The citizen who owns no realty pays nothing for a sewer. While the sewers are built out of the private and’not the public pocket, the public, the government, takes the money and spends it for that purpose under its police power, and the history of such expenditure is that from one-third to one-half of it is wasted in administration. There have been cases ig which the mere advertising of a sewer and for bids for its construction has cost more than the material and labor to do the job. This fact is stated not to promote the idea that corporations should build sewers and charge for their use, but to again illustrate the ever present fact of government waste. After the private purse has built the sewer the municipality "pretends to take care of it, with the result that there is hardly a mile of sewer in any American city that is in condition to do its service five years after its construction, In like streets are paved at the cost of abutting frontage. The realty owners make the street at their private cost, and the city assumes to take care of it. Result, the property created at the expense of individuals is PUBLIC OWNERSHIP. policy manner kept in a state too unclean for decent use, and is per- mitted to rapidly deteriorate and go to waste. All that The Call is doing is challenging denial of the, statement that in the administration of public utilities municipal waste equals corporate profit. As in each case the cost comes out of the people, they will be paying the same directly and indirectly, and under municipal ownership will add to the waste the temptation to corruption. Plus this, the new policy is at a disadvantage. There is no personal motive behind this challenge. The Mail draws a picture of conditions here to suit itself, which indicates envy of others. It says: “If San Francisco owned her own water works, for ex- ample, many a sleck and well-fed and fat capitalist would have to look elsewhere than to the consumers of water for his monthly income. Water and gas stocks are gilt-edged securities in San Francisco. You can get money on them quicker and easier than on the best real estate. The banks will tell you so.” For that very reason others besides the fat capital- ists invest in their securities. The Mail need not draw on its imagination for innumerable widows and or- phans and eleemosynary institutions supported by in- vestment in gas and water stock. That, we admit, has nothing to do with the discussion, but it has as much as the Mail's Mardi Gras pictare of fat capital- ists Several women of Eastern cities want to cross the Atlantic Ocean in a small boat. As they appear to have dispositions which indicate that they may do something more desperate they should be permitted | by the Board of to take the trip. TAYLOR'S LATEST EXCUSE. ENATOR E. K. TAYLOR of Alameda has once S more entered upon an explanation of! his con- nection with the passage of Assembly bill No. 456, relating to the regulation of liquor licenses in all counties of the State except San Francisco. In his first statement on the subject to the Alameda En- cinal Taylor is quoted by that paper as saying: - “I had nothing to do with this bill. It was introduced by Kelley in the Assembly and was known as the Davis bill. From The Call's article it would be in- ferred that I introduced it into the Senate, which is untrue. I had nothing to do with its introduction or passage.” It did not take long to dispose of that denial. The Senate Journal shows that on March 11, 1901, there was a'report from the Committee on Municipal Cor- porations recommending the passage of that bill “as amended,” and the report was signed by Taylor as chairman. A little later on the same day the bill was taken up by unanimous consent and the five amend- ments submitted by the committee of which Taylor was chairman were adopted. Among the amendments was the important one striking from the bill the words “and revenue,” which materially altered the in- tent of the measure. Confronted with those facts Senator Taylor now undertakes to explain his original denial. He says in a letter to the Oakland Enquirer: “The Call cast aspersions upon a Kelley-Taylor bill, alleging 2 scheme. The hyphen means that there were com- panion bills in each house. I ’phoned a reporter that I had never heard of a Kelley-Taylor bill and had noth- ing to do with the drawing or introduction of the license bill, and this was true. The central then cut me off when I was hurrying to a train and I did not conclude my interview.” We give the explanation for what it is worth. In the affairs of the world in these days “central” has a good deal to answer for. It may be true that the per- verse p‘erson of the wires cut Mr. Taylor off just as he was going to explain, but, admitting that to be so, the circumstance does not affect the main issue. The charges of The Call were and are that Sena- tor Taylor procured the passage of Assembly bill 456 with amendments proposed in the Senate Com- | mittee on Municipal gotporalions. of which he is chairman; that thereafter a large number of circular letters were sent out to attorneys in various parts of the State'inviting them to obtain contracts from saloon-keepers to pay certain sums of money, pro- vided that the saloon-keepers’ business were relieved from the payment of “such licénse tax now imposed Supervisors”; that the circulars were inclosed in envelopes of the firm of Taylor & Mason; that the contracts would have been in the nature of a cinch for the attorneys, since the passage of the act as amended made it certain the attorneys would win. Basing conclusions upon those facts, The Call charged that Senator Taylor had procured the passage of the act and was working it, or trying to work it, to his profit. It is no sufficient ‘answer to those charges to say that he was cut off by “central” when he was going to explain what he meant by denying that he knew anything about the “Kelley-Taylor” bill. The facts have been published in The Call fully and specifically, and if there be any wrong done by them to Senator Taylor it is to be presumed he has a suffi- cient knowledge of the law to know how to seek re- dress for any injury he may have received. There is nothing to be gained by blaming “central.” Should Senator Taylor undertake a third time to set himself right through the press he should explain first why he proposasd to the bill as it came to the Senate_certain amendments which struck the words “and revenue” from the measure; why he thereafter sought to get contracts with saloon-keepers.binding them to pay him and other attorneys for obtaining for them the protection from county licenses which the act gave them; why he told one of his friends that if he would canvass the liquor-dealers of Alameda County and get them to sign the contract he would be “properly treated.” Those things constitute the issue that the Senator is up agains It is reported from Washington that the pneumatic dynamite guns which were recently set up for de- fense at this port and at New York have been found objectionable by the Board of Ordnance and a rec- ommendation has been made that the use of that type of gun be abandoned. Any citizen who desires a dynamite gun for his collection of curios may yet have an opportunity to buy one at the price of old junk. A cated a theory about the present prolonged heat term in the East. Perhaps the term theory or hypothesis will not properly characterize the positive statement of his views. One reading them and hav- ing no knowledge of the subject, nor equipment for applying thereto daily observations that are within the experiences of all men, may well be expected to treat them as facts, since on their face they are slated as facts would be. Briefly, this professor says that the sun is a variable star, that the intensity of its light and heat is variable. He describes these fluctuations as a disease, of which sun spots are the symptoms, just as the pustules in smallpox and the rash in measles are symptomatic of disease in man. Believing the sun to have an in- closing envelope or crust which keeps back a per- centage of its heat, this crust, likened to the human skin, cracks, breaks, falls apart and lets out the full intensity of the fires behind it, he attributes to this solar skin disease the heat which afflicts the children of men on this planet. This pundit, whose name is Serviss and who lives in modern Ithaca, declares with a confidence which we share that “the source of this trouble is the sun.” Zoroaster discovered, several years ago, that the sun is the apparent, physical cause of life, since lacking its light and heat there would be no life, and Profes- sor Serviss will concede the formula, “no life, no trouble.” In dramatic language he describes the envelope of the sun again as a blanket, and if stripped off entirely “the surface of the earth would probably burst into smoke and flame in the instantaneous gush of unbear- able heat that would be poured upon it.” Let us hope the sun. will not kick off its blanket. But is this theory or hypothesis probably true? How much of it remains after applying to it observa- tions which every one can make? If the theory were true, what would happen? All places in the northern hemisphere in the same altitude and latitude, and where, therefore, the sun’s rays strike the earth in the same angle and atmosphere, being exposed to the same gush of heat, would suffer equally. If not, then why not? Why should the temperature the same day and hour be, at Davenport 104, Des Moines 100, In- THEORIES OF HEAT. LEARNED professor has apparently syndi- dianapolis 06, Kansas City 102, Memphis 102, Omaha 102, St. Louis 106, St. Paul 100, Springfield (Mass.) 100, Bismarck 106, while at Astoria it is 64, San Fran- cisco 56, Los Angeles 84, San Diego 707 Why should San Francisco, six degrees south of Bismarck, be 50 degrees cooler, although six degrees nearer to the vertical sun? To come to a more local comparison, why should Fresno have 1oz degrees, while San Francisco, 200 miles north, has 56, and San Diego, nearly 500 miles south, has only 70 degrees? Why do people drop dead at 98 degrees of heat in New York City the same day that San Francisco’s maximum is‘/only 547 Each city is on the shore of an ocean, with similar physical conditions, except that San Francisco is farther south and nearer the line of a vertical sun. Professor Ser- viss will concede that the inéreased heat of the sun, due to its skin diseass, will be felt as its normal heat is, the more severely where the rays are vertical to the surface of the earth, and with modified force as the angle increases. Then why do New Orleans, Mo- bile, Savannah and Charleston have their normal summer temperature, while St. Paul and far Winni- peg are shrieking with the unusual heat? Admitting that the sun has a blanket of vapors, a crust, a skin, the earth has its atmospheric envelope, which refracts, breaks, the rays of the sun, just as the platinum wire breaks the electric current and in the friction of the process develops heat and light. Shining into a pail of water the heat given thereto by the sun is equal to the resistance of the medium. Shining on the side of the metal pail the resistance is greater and the degree of heat developed much. more. All this is purely mechanical, but may we not learn from it to seek the cause of an access of heat in the conditions of our own atmosphere, which presents varying degrees of density, of resistance, of friction, and will account for abnormal heat in latitudes where the sun is farther away from vertical, and normal heat where it is many degrees nearer vertical? This ac- counts for a hot Bismarck and a cool, almost cold, San Francisco. But Professor Serviss’ theory does not account for this, and depends upon an even heat in same latitude and altitude. We are inclined to think that the sun is indicted .on more counts that can be proved. Going from the mechanical to the chemical, it is. legitimate to search for a chemical cause, originating in the body of the sun, for varying conditions of our atmosphere; but then again why should not such chemical cause affect equally the whole body of at- mosphere exposed to it? So it would seem that, whatever the cause, it is local to the planet, and is localized on its surface, all parts thereof not being equally affected. We stand up for the sun, and believe that its inten- tions are benevolent, and that the cause of trouble must be sought nearer Ithaca. The nations have agreed that China is to pay 23,000,000 taels a year, and that most of it is to be collected by a salt tax; and now if that much talked of international salt trust be formed, the avefagc Chinaman will have to live on fresh food for many a year. Salt fish will be a luxury. KEEP UP THE WORK. ITH the movement now going on to rid \;\’ the Republican party of the predatory bosses who have been preying upon it every good citizen is concerned. It means honest politics for the party, and it means good government for the city. If it be successful it will bring benefits to every class of people in the community outside of tax- eaters and tax-shirkers. Foreign critics of our governmental affairs have united in declaring that municipal government is the weak point in our system. It is in that arena the boss is most potent and his gangs most pernicious. San Francisco is one of the cities that have suffered most from such creatures, and what has been done in the past will be repeated in the future unless the boss and his henchmen be driven out of politics. From the first the stronghold of the boss has been the primaries. Those elections have been subject to fraud and violence to such an extent that good men have taken comparatively little interest in them be- cause they knew that no matter how the vote went the tools of the boss who controlled the primary would force the result to suit his schemes. The gross evils growing out of corruption at the primaries developed the public demand for a primary election law and have at last brought about the en- actment -of such a measure. In this contest, there- fore, every good citizen finds himself able to com- bat the boss with an effective weapon. There are to be no more scandals of force and fraud in the control of primaries. If the predatory gangs win this time it will be only because the better elements of the people are too sanguine of victory to take the trouble to go to the polls to assure it. The "bosses from highest to lowest perceive the danger that threatens their hold on politics and on their following, and are making a determined effort to win. They have formed a strong combination, for Herrin and Kelly are not weak, and accordingly the advocates of good government and honest politics must organize to combat them. Much has been already accomplished in that direction, but the work should not be permitted to lag. Every member of a Republican League Club should work diligently to bring in new members. The whole mass of stanch and stalwart Republicans should be brought to the polls on election day to uphold true Republicanism and smash the bosses. That is the only way to save the party. It is the only way to assure good govern- ment for San Francisco. A grocery clerk in Wilmington claims to be the rightful heir to the British throne and intends to go to London to fight for his birthright. He will prob- ably make an insane asylum a way station on the journey. A New Jersey court has determined in a decision of much legal lore that it is technically cruelty for a wife to spit in her husband’s face. He might have added that under some conditions it would be suicide. The wife of a Chicago millionaireis living in a stable while her new palace is being built. It is need- less to say that the stable is more magnificent in its appointments than are most mansions. A woman lawyer of Philadelphia insists that one of her sex should_have a place on the bench. The lady probably feels that her destiny is tu make mis- erable the life of man. Richard Croker has quit the American turf once and for all. He would confer a boon upon the rest of us by leaving American politics as well. Bryan wasted so much !f his vocabulary on the Supreme Court decisions of the island cases that he can’t ‘do justice to the Ohio platform. WOODMEN OF THE WORLD PREPARE FOR THE FERNBROOK INITIATION o HE eleventh anniversary of the Woodmen of the World will be cel- ebrated on the evening of August 10 at Fernbrook Park, Alameda County, with a remarkable initia- tion. About 1500 candidates will be taken mto the order. The ceremony will be under the auspices of the camps of the ninth and eleventh districts and a few from the eighth. This initiation will make Woodmen of the larg- est number ever initlated in any one night by any one order. Every camp represented at the park will have its headquarters in a large tent. The, SOME OF THE PROMINENT MEM- ‘ BERS OF THE ORDER OF WOOD- MEN OF THE WORLD. pavillon, which is the largest in the State, o will be closed in on all sides during the initlatory work. Fifty policemen, all members of the order, will be on the grounds. Four bands will furnish music for the occasion, and there will be a competitive drill for prizes be- tween degree teams of Mission, Golden Gate, Alpha and Oak- land camps. The pavilion will be lavishly decorated with trees, flags and colors of the order. This great initiatory ceremony will be conducted by the organization department. State Organizer Temple will offici- ate as consul commander, City Organizer Allen as post com- mander, District Organizer Ledford as adviser lieutenant, City Organizer Weinert as banker and District Organizer Connell as escort. There will be 2 mammoth parade 'n San Francisco and also in Oakland. The parade in Oakland will start from Woodmen block and will march down to First street and Broadway to meet the Oakland special at 7:15 p, m. Much Interest in Local Camps. Nothing in the fraternal circles of San Francisco has been the subject of so much discussion as have been the prepara- tions that have been made for the monster initiation in the forest at Fernbrook. It has been the topic of discussion in all the local camps; the officers of the camps have urged the mem- bers to action, so that the desired number, 1500, may be secured by the time set for the event. The individual members have been buttonholing their friends and acquaintances who are not-members of the order to come in.and become neighbors of wooderaft, the camp physicians hdve been busy devoting many spare hours to examining eligibles who have signed applica- tion blanks, and the grand medical examiner has been obliged to devote his whole time to revising the reports of the camp physiclans. The camps that are interested in the movement in San Francisco are Golden Gate, California, Tamalpais, San Fran- clsco, Western Additicn, Calumet, Mission, Redwood and Rich- mond. Fach of these camps has arranged for headquarters in the Fernbrook forest, and on the night of the 10th of Au- gust there will be a grand reunion at Ploneer Hall, from which the procession will move to the ferry landing. Tamalpais Camp will have its own brass band in line, and California Camp will turn out with its hayseed band, a burlesque musical organization of thirty; .all attired as grangers, with hayseed in their hair and straw in thelr shoes. It will be under the leadership of Bandmaster Page, who has spent many weary hours teaching them the mystery of musical discord. This speclal organization will be escorted to the ferry by a genuine brass band of twenty pleces. Special Features for Parade. The other camps are arranging for speclal features for the procession to the Unlon depot, but they will not at this time announce what those features are to be. It Is expected that Golden Gate Camp, which already has a membership of more ‘than 1400, will turn out a very large number to escort about 260 candidates. The other camps will have from fifty to one hundred candidates each. At the Unlon depot the procession L premend will be added to by the camps from Sonoma and Marin coun- tles, and they will proceed to the mole by ferry, where they will be joined by the aggregation of neighbors and candidates from the camps across the bay. Bonfires will be lighted on the evening of the 10th on Mount Tamalpals, and the park will be illuminated with incandescent lights and innumerable Japanese lanterns. Great credit is due State Organizer Temple for the work on hand, Neighbor Temple having made the best record of any field worker. The idea of a monster initiation in California originated with Deputy Head Consul Merton C. Allen of Golden Gate Camp, who, after communication with Head Organizer Tem- ple, submitted his plan to Head Consul Falkenberg of Denver, Colo., who at once approved of it and gave his sanction to have the idea put into operation. The idea got out and spread all over the Pacific Coast jurisdiction and steps were taken to have such initiations at different points in August. There will be one on Mount Tabor, Oregon, when it is expected that 1000 strangers will be added to the membership of that State. There will be a similar initiation in other places, where there will be additions of from one hundred to flve hundred. /The first of these will be held at Coeur d'Alene to-night; the next will be at Tabor Mountain, Oregon, August 3; then Californfa’s initiation at Fernbrook August 10; at Boulder, Colo., the same night; Tacoma, Wash., August 24, and Seattle August 3l. The Pacific Coast jurisdiction is composed of California, Colorado, Montana, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, Washington and Wyoming. Origin of the Order. The Woodmen of the World is an organization that once formed part of the fraternity of Modern Woodmen of America that was instituted in 1883. The present order was founded in 189 and is now in the front rank of great fraternal beneficlary societies. 1Its objects are to inculcate a spirit of fraternal brotherhood among the members, provide assistance In case of sickness or distress, attend to the burial of the dead and erect monuments over the graves of deckased neighbors at a cost of $100 each and to provide a beneficlary fund for the widow, orphan or relatives of a decedsed member. Since its organization, ten years ago, it has paid $7.196,075 In beneflts, the latest published report showing that during the last fiseal year the amount distributed was about $1,000,000, The ritualistic work of the order is impressive, the charges of the several officers being full of those lessons that go far toward making strangers who enter the forest better men not only in their relations with their families but with the world at large. It is belleved that John E. Plumley, the famous old gulde, who died in May, 190, at the age of 73, Kknown to the world as the gulde of the Adirondack Mountains, is responsible indirectly for the ideas embodied in tne ritual, Many of them are those of the old guide, and they teach what he declared the forests gave him by iration. The name by which every member is known in order is “neighbor”; with the old guide every one to him was a “neighbor,” and ther» are many parts of the secret work of the order which may be traced to him. p- L e B e e B B B L R S R AR M AAT I A M) el femieofefeefofenfeenfeonfoon oo ol ANSWERS TO QUERIES.
