The rupture which was precipitated was undoubtedly caused by the over- zealous activity of some of their individual partisans and followers. As friends acting in concert they could have carried out the plan of Diaz, continued his policy and perhaps could have carried Mexico to a point where her political footing would have been strong and secure. As rivals for the Presidency their at- titude carries with it a menace even to the peace of the country. There is no other candidate whose claims command any serious consideration.” It is noted that in the recent national convention which nominated Diaz for the seventl' term one of the speakers in advocating the re-election of the President said: “If we are not to enjoy the privi- leges of republican institutions, let us be granted the opportunities given by the Americans to the con- quered Filipinos. Let us be governed dictatorially, but without militarism.” The shot was aimed at Reyes and the hit was recognized. The fact that it was made is an_evidence of the intensity of the feel- mgs that have been developed among the partisans. The outlook for Mexico is therefore by no means encouraging. It appears that Diaz is the only man who can hold the various classes of the people in or- der, and he is now an old man and cannot much longer sustain the weight of government. When he departs the critical hour will have come for Mexico, and it behooves her patriots to prepare for it. B —— The Superior Court has decided that civil service papers in local examinations are not public docu- ments. It is a consolation to know that our courts are ready to protect us from what case after case have proved to be dishonest records, which preserve only the craft and cunning of political sharpers and the success of dichonesty in competition with de- cency. We have enough crooked public records without adding these. Commenting o correspondent both were f EORGE KROGNESS, Manager Foreign Adver- | ! FUBLIC UTILITY BONDS. ! g N one form in this city, and in another and more I typical form in Oakland, it is proposed to issue bonds to a large amount for the purchdst or cre- | ation of public utilities. In Oakland an issue is pro- posed to acquire a municipal water supply. As this | was the primary form in which municipalities em- | barked in business in competition with individuals, it faffords means of comparison and a length of expe- ;ncnce on which to base conclusions. The experience of every city in the United States | which owns waterworks marks plainly one | thing, which wise taxpayers must insist upon as a | condition absolute and imperative. All cities that | have neglected it have had occasion to keenly regret | the oversight, and to accuse themselves of neglect iwhen it was too late. Every such bond issue for | waterworks as is prcposed in Oakland should be | voted down and voted down, until it is provided that | the income of the public water plant shall pay ‘the { bonds and interest, the cost of maintenance, repair, | enlargement, extension and administration. Unless this is done a lien upon the general funds of the city | is created and the worst possible results follow. The ‘pohcy of public ownership is bound to ferment its i | way to a conclusion, and unless this precaution is out | taken at the start cities will find their funds burdened | |and their taxing power exhausted in supporting va- | rious business plants, so that nothing is left for the | essential objects of government. | Again, it is settled by all students of the subject, |and among them some of the strongest advocates of | public ownership of business plants, that to put the " burden, wholly or in part, no matter how small, upon the general funds, is unjust to the taxpayer who does | not need the utility—it is, in fact, confiscation of his | property to the extent to which such tax takes it | from him. So it is agreed that each plant in public | ownership should stand on its own bottom. A further examination of the matter demonstrates that in Amer- |ican cities this is the only possible plan by which it I may be hoped fo secure a proper business adminis- tration of a public plant. It will be administered then just as a private corporation would administer it, leav- ing out the item of profit. The water plant requiring so much each year for sinking fund and interest on its bond account, so much for maintenance and ex- | tension, and so much for salaries and wages and to Eflfl'set deterioration, these items fix automatically the | charge to the ratepayers, and so when charged the | general fund is left free for the essential purposes of | government. Ozkland, proposing to start in, with a clear field, has the opportunity to start right in an experiment, | guided by the extended experience of others and the | ripest conclusions of students of the subject. In every city owning a water plant the failure to make | that right start has proved to be the weak place in | the policy. It has led to waste, to criminal favoritism, ;tn every vice possible in public accounting, and seems, indeed, the parent of all the evils that have beset the victims of deficient foresight. Neglect of this precaution has led, everywhere, to an increase in municipal indebtedness and to a rate of taxation out of proportion to the benefits received by the taxpayer. All of this applies equally to San Francisco in the | embarkation upon public ownership provided for in he charter, but it is likely to receive less considera- }lizm here than it will get in Oakland, where there is | more concentration of thought upon public matters | and where a calmer consideration may be given to the | grave issues involved in starting out upon a novel | policy. Therefore we are confident that Oakland will | insist upon providing that her proposed water plant | shall carry its first cost, and all of the incidents of ex- | pense in its administration, and be run upon business | principles. That city will then have established a new | base line and set a needed example. San Francisco is being entertained by the specta- | cle of two “beauty doctors,” lost to the natural sense of seli-preservation, fighting out their claims in a |court of justice. They are seeking what inevitably | one would expect them to ‘shun—public inspection. { It may be assumed that neither will exhibit his or | her face as an exhibit of the success of his “beauty” | treatment. THE NEGRO IN BUSINESS. ESPITE the attacks made upon him by a dis- | D contented class of negroes, Booker Washing- | ton continues to hold the first place among | those to whom the more thrifty and wiser negroes | turn for advice and counsel. At the recent convention of “The National Negro Business Men’s League” at Nashville he was the principal speaker and was re- ceived with an earnestness which must have more (than compensated him for the harsh treatment he | received from some of his race on his recent visit to Boston. It is worth noting as an evidence of the better sen- timent with respect to the negro which prevails in | the South that the convention was held at the State | Capitol upon an invitation given by the Legislature. As the Legislature is composed almost wholly of whites, the giving of the invitation is a proof that the }rabid hostility expressed by Senator Tillman and a | few other politicians does not truly represent South- ern sentiment, at least so far as the negro worker and business men are concerned. Washington of course repeated his well-known counsel of work agd patience as the only means of solving the problem of the negro in the United States. In the course of his address he said: “We shall succeed in winning our way into the confidence and esteem cof the American people just in propor- | tion as we show ourselves valuable to the community in which we live, in all the common industries, in commerce, in the welfare of the State and in the manifestation of the highest character. The commu- ity does not fear as a rule the vote of the man, no matter what his color, who is a large taxpayer. It is not the negro who owns a successful business or works at a trade who is charged with crime. While we are in many cases surrounded with disadvantages, when we compare our condition and opportunities with those of the Jews in many parts of Europe, it is easy to see that almost every opportunity denied the Jews is open to us. The greater the difficulties to be overcome, the more strength we shall gain by succeeding. Every house owned, every farm well cul- tivated and every bark account, every store, every tax receipt we possess, is one influence which will operate tremendously in our favor.” The statement that the negro in the South, despite all the disadvantages under which he labors, is better off than the peasants and Jews in many countries of Europe is fully justified by the facts. There are no limitations put upon the negro in the South as a worker and as a property-owner, and as land is cheap and opportunities for work abundant, even though wages are small, the more thrifty among the negroes ijare prospering. Starting without an acre of land, i , cept our good advice. without a dollar, without experience in the responsi- bilities of freedom, the race as a whole has made a notable advance in the accumulation of property, and some of the abler men have become wealthy. Along those lines, then, the negro can hope to advance to 2 pesition of power in the community that will enable him to command a respect for his rights of all kinds. | Reports of outrages, robberies and various depre- dations committed in the interior of the State by mysterious criminals are almost of daily report. They serve to remind us that several escaped convicts, as savage as beasts of the forests, are abroad in the land and that the post-mortem examination and dis- the break happened than to know how it may be re- paired. e —— WATTERSON'S VACATION TALK. DISPATCH from New York says: “Colonel A Henry Watterson is spending his summer vaca- tion at the Manhattan Club in this city.” Surely that is a queer place to spend a summer vacation. The colonel must be in training for Hades. Even New Yorkers, to the climate born and to the weather bred, get out of the big city and away from the clubs in the | summer time; and one would suppose that a rural rooster brought up amid the bucolic delights bloom is on the rye all the year round, where the | watermelon ripens and the native drinks are full of re- freshment for the body and the soul, would seek a vacation among the woodland haunts or the bowered | gardens of his native State rather than fly to the | the nights are humid, where a man can find nothing ‘cxtept a thirst. It may be that the colonel felt the need of a thirst, but that is doubtful. For many a glorious year | his thirst has been one of the wonders of Kentucky, and whether clamoring for red liquor or for gore he has shown an unweariable and unfailing desire for more. No one ever saw him full—nor, indeed, did any one ever see him empty. Therefore it is strange he should seek recreation, retirement, rest and amusement during the dogs days at the Manhattan Club in New York when every one else is out of town. The drinks of the summer in New York have given the colonel a strange power to see things, and he an- nounces that from his point of view he sees signs of a Democratic victory in the Presidential contest next year. Thus he declares himself in an interview: “Mr. Roosevelt has played a clever hand and will probably get his nomination to lose the election. All the moral currents and many physical signs and portents seem setting against the Republicans, so that if the Democrats be not wholly bereft both of sense and fortune they will come back to power in 1904 by an impulse as mighty as that of 1892 and much more dis- cernible, for nobody could force the Homestead riots, while even now the handwriting on the walls of Wall street is visible to the naked eye.” Having declared these physical signs and portents to be visible to the naked eye, Colonel Watterson did not undertake to describe them, but went on to talk of possibilities that the Democratic party might after all be “bereft of both sense and fortune” next year. The menace comes from the East and from the West. Cleveland leads one senseless gang and Bryan leads the other. Watterson preferred to use a .different metaphor and to speak of the leaders of the rival factions as an upper and a nether millstone, grinding Democracy to pieces between them. However, he has hopes of getting’ rid of Bryan, for he says: “Mr. Bryan is killing himself as a public force as fast and as surely as his enemies could wish. If he goes on as he seems bent upon going he will become the merest agitator and claimant, at once impotent and vindic- tive. He will not carry a corporal’s guard with him into the next convention, and when he bolts—as he will—there will be few or none to follow him.” Of Cleveland he had less to say, we know not why, | but probably because he felt the lack of a language | equal to his feelings. At any rate he appears at that point to have retired into the inner recesses of the Manhattan Club to amuse himself by contemplating the “moral currents” that are bearing Democracy on- ward to power and the office California, by authority of Washington officials, will soon be the seed ground for all the United States, the great depot from which all that is best in American agriculture will issue. This is a triumph in material progress and prosperity of which we are justly proud, for we have rightly earned it. — ROOSEVELT AND THE TRUSTS. URING the recent convention of the Inter- Dnational Typographical Union in Washing- ton City several of Mr. William Randolph Hearst’s employes appeared and steered an anti- trust meeting in one of the theaters. The affair had a distinct campaign air. There were red lights, transparencies, brass bands and Henry George Jr. The occasion was not tumultuous, but it is the silly season and Washington is dull and even a podr brass band is attractive. The purpose of it all was soon disclosed in the booming of William Randolph Hearst for the Presidency as a trust buster. In the speeches and resolutions President Roosevelt was at- tacked, defamed and belied in the most approved and yellow way. The next morning the New York Sun (trust organ) appeared with a leading editorial explaining that the Democrats have a chance to succeed next year because Roosevelt's enforcement of the anti- trust Jaws has won him the enmity and opposition of combined capital. This editorial closed with this sentence: “All the world knows that the great prosperity continued in the United States till Presi- dent Roosevelt began, a year ago, his New England speech-making against capital organized by its own- ers to promote American industries.” There you have it, men and countrymen. The trusts want hard times that they may lay the re- sponsibility at the President's door because he en- | forced the law, and the boomers of William Randolph Hearst want hard times that they may lay the re- sponsibility upon the President because he did not enforce the law! As worthy alliance of unworthies as ever tried to fool the people. . B e The wild man of Borneo has been the subject of General Wood's critical military and educational in- spection. The general has submitted the methods of British treatment to careful analysis and will apply | them cautiously to the inhabitants of the Jolo archi- pelago. It is significant and encouraging, for the American people think much of General Wood, that he has surrounded himself with a formidable military escort.

Another sister of the groom, Miss Alicla Dufficy, wore light green crepe de chine with hat of the same color and carried a shower bouquet of white roses. The maid of honor, Miss Mildred Ward, who was the bride’s sister, wore a pretty pink chiffon gown and hat. She carried an armful of maidenhair ferns. Next came the bride on the arm of her father. She was charming in a gown of point d’esprit lace over chiffon and satin, with garniture of white silk applique lace, chiffon and pearls. A long tulle veil was fastened in the hair without -ornaments. She carried a shower bouquet of lilies of the valley. The bride’s mother wore black net over silk. Eighty guests attended the breakfast at the house after the ceremony. The decor- ations were pink carnations and amaryl- lis. Mr. and Mrs. Dufficy will sail for Japan to-da; on the Maru. After a three mom%s' absence they will reside in this city, where the groom has a position in Ct m House, ‘h';hlfi;ubs:;(’lo is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. M. J. Ward at 2412 Clay street.

Among those present were General and Mrs. Black of Chicago; General Torrence of Minneapolis; Judge Collins of Minne- sota; Colonel Cutler, commander of Thomas Post; Mr. and Mrs. Rolla D. Watt; Mr. and Mrs. Fred Jacobs and Frank Jacobs. . L e Mrs. Fred Jacobs will leave here to-day for the East, where she will remain for two months. After visiting her mother at Kansas City, Mrs. Jacobs will go to several other points before returning to San Francisco. Mrs. Jacobs gave a farewell luncheon on Thursday at her home, 1715 Pacific avenue, entertaining a dozen of her friends most hospitably. The table dec- orations were pink carnations, while yel- low blossoms decorated the drawing room. PR A very quiet marriage was celebrated on Wednesday last when Miss Ethel May Garratt became the bride of Irving T. Nixon. Rev. H. H. Bell performed the ceremony. The bride was attended by her former school friend, Mrs. Thomas Ma- hew, who was, before her marriage, Miss Bessie Todd of Los Angeles. Dr. Jerome Carroll was best man.
