Wagons, ete., at HE Oakland Tribune deprecates the action of Tthe State Board of Trade in calling the atten- tion of the Governor of the State to the losses already sustained and worse impending, by the coun- producers, as a result of unlawful prevention of handling of grain and other perishable property belonging to the farmers. That paper calmly remarks that: “There have been no riots, no threatening assemblages and no seditious speeches; in fact, outside of-the individual instances of assault there has been no law-breaking and no dis- order on the part of the strikers.” This reads strang in the face of the fact that in five weeks there have been two thousand assaults made in this city upon American citizens who were peacefully laboring. The maritime laws of the United States have been violated by gangs of ruf- fians boarding anchored ships at night, driving their crews over the side under threat with guns and pis- tols to kill them, and taking the prisoners ashore to first beat and then rob them. Laborers have been caught by strikers and their arms broken with iron bars. In these affairs nearly fifty highway robberies have been committed by strikers, who first beat their victims into insensibility and then stole their money. The Tribune continues: “The industrial tie-up, as set forth by the State Board of Trade, is in truth the very outcome sought by the workmen and affords the only way in which they can win. What they did anticipate is the very condition the State Board of Trade now admits to exist—business becoming so paralyzed that unless relief is -quickly obtained the merchants and manufacturers will suffer enormous losses and the State be given a severe commercial setback.” Now it is known of -all men that there could not have been a day’s tie-up of business by the strike had it not been for the intimidation of men willing to work by the use of personal violence. It is not neces- sary for this violence to be expressed by large mobs. It was executed by sneaking bands of cowards, who, | outnumbering their victims five to ten to one, way- laid them in dark corners and alleys, and disabled them by cruel beating and kicking and clubbing. That this is the policy of the union leaders has been over and over again demonstrated. English sailors on a British ship were attacked and beaten, and when their captain appealed to the British Vice Consul and he seemed about to appeal to Federz! authority for protection, to which his sailors are en- titled in an American port, the strike leaders kindly offered to furnish his men a guard ard a safe conduct when they desire to come ashore! Is the Tribune aware that furnishing a safe con- duct to men is the function of an officer of the Gov- crnment, of a2 commanding officer in charge of a district that is under martial law? That offer by the strike leaders_is their admission that they have made the streets of San Francisco un- > for non-union labor. It is their gloating admis- sion that they can do what the Governor, Mayor and police have not done—guarantee the safety of men in this city. When such leaders assume one of the highest and most delicate functions of government by issuing safe conducts, they confess that they have made the streets unsafe. By assuming that function they are impersonating government. Only the ex- ecutive power of a Government can proclaim martial law, <ompel citizens to avoid the streets to evade death, and give them safe conduct on necessary busi- ness. But these strike leaders are doing all this and admitting it. Is it no crime to impersonate Government? If one man impersonate an officer and arrest another, or do any act lawful when done by the officer he impersonates, he is severely pun- ished by the law either as a misdemeanant or a felon. But here are the strike leaders impersonating all the functions of government and posing as the very lords of life and death! Again, the Tribune says that only by threatening paralysis of business could the strikers carry their point. Over and over again the labor unions are put as the analogue of the corporations. Suppose now that the transportation corporaljons of the State had concluded to carry a point by tying up the commerce of the State, and making its “merchants and manufac- turers suffer enormous losses and the State a severe commercial setback,” and suppose they had enforced this point by beating men, picking their pockets and had assumed the functions of government by issuing safe conducts to protect against the thugs and thieves used by them to effect their purpose, what remedy would the Tribune propose? ’ | places at much lower HE tide of comment and denunciation of the Examiner, Journal and American Each of those papers is printed under the legend, “An Ameri- can paper for the American people.” opinion to read, “An Anarchist paper for Anarchists.” The News, Newark, N. J.; says of the Hearst papers: “Their infamy is only made the more manifest by the crocodile tears which they are now shedding over the results of their own teachings. Now that their propaganda has reached its legitimate outcome, they slop over with sorrow and are maudlin in their nauseating sympathy.

If any one desires to criticize the methods of government he has a perfect right to do so, but his appeal must be to the intelli- gence and patriotism of his fellow-citizens, not to force.” Review, Eimhurst, Cal.: “Sheets like the anarchist’ spirit in our land than all other agencies combined.” Herald, Niles, Cal.: “No paper has come out in detail and called down the Exam. iner and its Eastern issues in such magnificent style as The Call, for which it should re- But all the talk will amount to nothing if those who believe papers which breed anarchy, discontent and crime continue to subscribe for them.” Evening Wisconsin, Milwaukee: “There have been cartoons in daily issues from the press which have mendaciously pictured thie President as the tool of greedy conspira~ tors, bent upon wresting the last crust from the starving poor. To the inflamed imag- ination of an anarchist these things would seem like support for his sulphurous creed.” Appeal, Marysville, Cal.: “Artist Opper, of the Examiner, whose brutal cartoons of President McKinley contributed their share to his undoing, should now portray him- | self as all decent-minded men see him.” ceive due credit.

Within the last few months it has proven itself the most unscrupulous of journals, and has come out brazenly as the mouth- piece of the mob.” Commenting on the statemeht of the Ukiah Times that the Examiner's strikers are driving women and children out. of employment in the hop fields by taking their wages, The Herald, Windsor, Cal., says: “The Times forgets that in strikers there are no noble men but union men. They leave in tHe cities to intimidate and beat alpost to death any and all men from the country who go to the city and attempt t&work, while they, the strikers, go out into the country and monopolize the work at greatly reduced wages, and while this double-cross. is being worked on the country people by the strikers who had no occa- sion for striking, the leaders of the un-American mob in San Francisco are appealing to the estimation of the enough brutal bullics the country laboring people for sympathy.” Times-Index, San Bernardino: pretense, the result of fear.” People’s Cause, Red Bluff: “The greatest sinners compose the triumvirate il yellow journals published by William R.

As The Call properly says in an article we reproduced yesterday, Hearst i§ a coward and his papers are enemies of American institutions, of law and order.” “In Oakdale a man said the murder of the President was all right—the country would be better off without him. This is treason against the country and its citizens. But men have been educated .to infamous suggestions of an- Times, Los Angeles: Graphic, Oakdale, Cal.: archy by the San Francisco Examiner.” Gazette, Berkeley, Cal.: “From New York to San Francisco, and from Michigan to Texas, the press of the United States is scoring those promoters of disorder and an- archy, those inflamers of public passion, those inciters to riot, those three stinkpots of American journalista ewned by Hearst.” Here space compels us to rest again. indictment of Hearst and his papers by the people of the United States is not pleasant, but its discharge is necessary. It was easy for his local hirelings to say to this com- munity that only The Call held these views, proper time. THE SPIRIT OF THE PRESS. “William R. Hearst, teacher, isy as guilty Hearst and his papers must pay the penalty.” The News Letter, San Francisco, says: “From the idea that the police are op- pressors to the idea that the President is a tyrant is a logical step. From the idea that to resist the police is laudable to the idea that resistance to the chief executive of the nation is praiseworthy is an easy step for the restless and turbulent. To the more vio- | lent of them resistance means murder, and if the murder of a police officer is a good | deed the slaying of the President is a better one. “The Examiner has a streak of repentance for the awful consequences of its treachery, and is printing pages of prayers in place of its usual diatribes against the President. But it"does not deceive the public. TIts repentance is a Therefore our readers need to know that in every State in the Union the press and the people think. as we think,.and rise as one in expression of their horror and detestation. As far as The Call is concerned, when Mr. Hearst gets ready let him ! proceed to attend to us. This lying legend is changed by public crime of Czolgosz. By the most reckless The seed That sort| The line between peace- the Examiner have done more to keep alive as Leon The Examiner’s utterances have They inculcate in the minds of their! The duty that impels the publication of this and would be attended to by them at the The price of potatoes in the East has been so high for some time past that the newspapers have been seriously discussing the advisability of using some sort of substitute for them. This is certainly a curious condition to prevail in any part of the United States. We used to be told that the Irish came to this country because they.could get nothing but potatoes at home, but now if they have to hunt a substitute for the potato itself when they get here they will probably come to the conclusion that the country is a gold brick. B R The contest in the Democratic camp in Massachu- setts between the Boston machine that is supporting Josiah Quincy and the rural backers of Gamaliel Bradford has gone so far that the latter are insisting that if Gamaliel be elected he “will lift the cover off the State House and show the people what is going on inside.” It is now stated that the cause of the troubles in Colombia is the business disturbance caused by the depreciation of the paper money of the country. It is another case of a whole people needing the gold cure. President Roosevelt has announced that he is not a candidate for the Presidential nomination in 1904, but it will be remembered he was not a candidate for the Vice Presidency in 1900, but none the less it came his way. The results of the Chicago law requiring applicants for positions as teachers in the public schools to pass a physical examination are said to have been so good that there is talk of adopting a similar rule in New York and Philadelphia; and if the movement continue there will probably come a time when no young woman can get a job as school mistress until she demonstrates an ability to knock out a school board. When in order to reduce the surplus in the treas- ury and add to the amount of money in circulation Secretary Gage announced that he would purchase $20,000,000 of United States bonds, a firm of brokers in New York offered him $10,000,000 of municipal bonds; which shows that a keen business instinct is not always accompanied by sound horse sense. il A Chicago woman of the smart set has announced that at her forthcoming wedding young ladies will act as ushers as well as bridesmaids, and the cere- mony will bé performed by a lady preacher. Just why she did not finish the innovation by getting a woman for bridegroom is not stated. A short time ago the manufacturers of Georgia adopted resolutions favoring restrictions upon child labor, and now those of South Carolina have taken similar action. Thus it will be seen that the South is catching up with the rest of the Union all along the line. s - “The chief thing in life is to do something—to work.” “I know what it is to cut wood and to crush stone for roads at fifteen cents an hour.” “I am proud of my father. He is the best father in the ‘world. My ambition is to prove myself worthy of his love and confidence.” “In Bible study there are four points to follow: Study earnestly, study prayerfully, study consecutively, and give practical expression to your deductions.” “To be really a Christian you must observe the spirit as well as the letter of the law; Christ’s teachings demand something far deeper than the mere observance of the canon.” —Extracts from Bible class sermons of John D. Rockefel- ler Jr. * ROSPECTIVE heir to a fortune of $300,000,000, John Davidson Rocke- feller Jr.,, whose engagement to~ Senator Aldrich’s daughter was re- cently announced, is destined to be- come a potential factor in affairs. By education, training and temperament he is equipped, at the age of 2, to assume the responsibilities involved in the direc- tion of his father's vast interests, and in a large measure has already done so. Entering the office of the Standard Oil Company three years ago, fresh from Brown University, he has advanced stead- ily from a junicr clerkship to the position of financial director of the great corpora- tion, his principal duties being to keep in touch with the securities market and pro- tect the investments of the company and of its fndividual stockholders. His apti- tude has surprised and delighted John D. Rockefeller Sr. From early boyhood Mr. Rockefeller has been under his father's personal direction. His education was shaped along lines of usefulness, and he has had constantly in mind the carser awaiting him, its re- sponsibilities and burdens, and the relief of his father from the strain under which he has long lavored. John D. Rockefeller Jr. was born in Ohio and spent the first fifteen years of his life on an estate near Cleveland. Mr. Rockefeller, to test his son’'s mental trend, offered him one cent for every picket he found® displaced on the farm fence. Young Rockefeller walked around the ientire estate—a day's journey for a lad of his age—and netted thirteen cents. He was still looking for defective pickets at nightfall, wnen Mr. Rockefeller came tpon him in a i{ar corner of the estate. It is related that the thirteen cents thus earned judiciously invested, has grown to $12,000. A Model Young Man. Miss Aldrich’s fiance is not a devotee of society and no club claims him as a mem- ber; he does not drink and has never used tobacco in any form; his colors are not registered with the Jockey Club, and it is said he has never witnessed a horse race; he does not own a yacht; he rarely at- tends the theater and then only as a patron of music, and for other sportive pastimes of the yvoung men of the day he has no taste. Nevertheless Mr. Rocke- feller is not without healthful resources. He is an athlete of no mean order, he is not averse to ariving behind a fast horse and is an accomplished violinist. But it is as the teacher of the young men's Bible class in the Fifth Avenue Baptist Church that Mr. Rockefeller finds his greatest pleasure. There for three years he has conducted Bible studies, assisted at times by his father, who in this work, as in everything eise, is his guide and philo- sopher. In personal appearance Mr. Rockefeller bears little resemblance to his father. He is about five feet elght inches in height, of slight but well knit frame, and his fea- tures are pale and intellectual. His eyes are blue and are shaded by eyebrows of black, brushy bhair, which almost meet. ‘When seated at his desk he wears rimiess glasses, and his aepect is that of a divin- ity student rather than of the man of af- fairs. Though Mr. Rockefeller goes little into society and has never belonged to a club TROCKEFELLER’S SON IS HE TO THREE H UNDRE IR D MILLIONS - JOHN D. ROCKEFELLER JR., WHO IS NEITHER A SOCIETY NOR A pl CLUB MAN, NEITHER DRINKS NOR SMOKES AND NEVER SPENDS ' | MORE THAN 30 CENTS FOR HIS LUNCHEON. - since his college days, when he was a member of the Alpha Dejza Phi at Brown University, he is one of the best-dressed men in New York. He is partial to quiet colors, but his clothing is always fashion- ed from the choicest fabrics. Likes to Chop Wood. Punctual to the minute in business en- gagements, one might set a clock by Mr. Rockefeller’s daily schedule. During the summer he makes his home at Box- wood, the country seat of John D. Rocke- feller, in Tarrytown. He is up at half past 6 every morning, and for the ensuing hour may be seen about the Rockefeller sta- bles or at the woodpile chopping wood, a form of exercise to which he long ago be- came accustomed. Breakfast over, he drives to the raflroad station in time to catch the train leaving Tarrytown for New York at twenty minutes to 9 o’clock. One hour later he is at his desk4n the office of the Standard Oil Company, in lower Broadway. He is never late. Mr. Rockeleller at noon patronizes a Broad-street cafe, where he partakes of a frugal luncheon, for which he allows him- self thirty minutes. The meal rarely costs him more than 30 cents. The day’'s work over, Mr. Rockefeller times himself to catch a train from the Grand Central station at half past 3 o'clock, There is always a buckboard at @ Tttt e b e e @ PERSONAL MENTION.

The Call, published 1n San Francisco, next day devoted eight illustrated pages to the tra- gedy. A well drawn figure of the nation in sorrow covers the first page, an imag- inary picture of the firing of the shot is the main feature of the second, a picture of the Temple of Music the third. illus- trated biographies of McKinley and Roosevelt the fourth and fifth, pictures of Mrs. McKinley, Secretary Hay, the ‘White House, ‘he McKinley home, the Emergency Hospital at the Pan-American and the Milburn homestead in Buffalo are scattered through the other pages. Cer- tainly so far as illustrations go the read- ers of The Call were well served. As for reading matter, it seems that The Call covered every possible source of informa- tion available in the East, with some pun- gent additions, such as the burning in effigy_of Mr. Hearst, the owner of the San Francisco Examiner. the New York Journal and the Chicagdo American, by citizens of Hanferd, Cal., who chose to | express in that way, The Call says, their indignation at ‘‘un-American newspa- pers.” ———— Choice candies, Townsend's, Palace Hotel* —_— e Cal. glace fruit 50c per 1b at Townsend’s.* _————— Closed Thursday. ‘W. 8.

Almost primitive in its simplicity, the home life of the Rockefellers is yet de- lightful. Dinner is served at 6 o'clock, in three courses—scup, a roast and dessert. Then comes the family gathering. When Mr. Rockefeller's daughters were at home plano recitals, with violin accompaniment, preceded a service of song and family prayers. Now father and son provide the musie. and John D. Rockefeller Jr., who possesses a fine voice, is often heard ren- dering solo selections. It is in such an atmosphere that young Mr. Rockefeller has been reared. Home ties were stronger than the blandishments of soclety, and if he ever had a sweet- heart before his meeting with Miss Al- drich the fact is not generally known. Only once has Mr. Rockefeller been known to speculate. That was when he first came from college. A lucky “turn’ in the shares of the United States Leather Company netted him $400,000, but he said to have lost his profits and a consia- erable sum in addition by a subsequent “slump.” He decided after this experience to leave speculation to others.
