CREAMERY MEN |70 OIL POINT HOLD GOUNGIL Prepare to Capture the National Butter Con- vention. S K Making a Big State Exhibit at St. Louis Is Prelim- inary. PO A The California Creamery Operators’ As- soclation is planning for a representative }exhlb(ll of dairy products at the World's | Fair, and also expeets to capture the Na- | tlonal Butter Makers' Association con- | vention—to be attended by between 6000 |and 8000 delegates—in 1906. The conven- | | tion of the National Butter Makers' As- | | =ociation for 19 will be held at St. Louis, | {and it is hoped that the California ex- | hibit, together with the work of repre- | sentatives of California, may result in | securing this convention. | | An important meeting of a special com- | mittee appointed by the annual convention of the California Creamery Operators’ As- soclation in Sacramento last month was held yesterday afterncon at the office of the State Dairy Bureau to consider both the getting up of an exhibit of dairy products at the World's Fair and also the best means to secure the butter makers' | convention, which, if held in California, will be the biggest and most important agricultural convention ever held west of | the Rockies. | The special committee of the State | Dairy Bureau consists of C. E. Hill, E. T. | Fitzpatrick, H. F. Lyon, W. H. Ronssel, | Thomas Hodge, George G. Knox of Sacra- | mento, E. H. Hageman of Fresno, Pro- fessor Majos of Berkeley and W. H. Say- | ler, secretary of the California Creamery | Operators’ Association. | FILCHER EXPLAINS. | J. A. Filcher of the World's Fair com- | mission explained the hope of the com- | misslon in securing an exhibit that would, if possible, exceed that of any other State. Mr. Flicher stated that California will have a floor space of 8x8 feet for dairy purposes in the refrigerator, with | an additional shelf space. The general exhibit space for dairy purposes in the California bullding is $4x13 feet. It was | suggested that this space be devoted to | the reproduction of an ideal dairy farm in California. Both Mr. Fiicher and the committee were decisive_that the exhibit should be distinctively Californian. The committee suggested that an ex- hibit in butter of the Yosemite Falls would be one of the most interesting ex- hibits ever prepared. As the work of preparing many details for the dairy ex- hibit will be laborious, a resolution was passed recommending that the exposi-| tion commission create the position of superintendent of the dairy exhibit of California, whose duty is shall be to co- oper: with the California Creamery Operators’ Association and the dairy in- erests of the State, and shall organize exhibit and be in attendance at the fair. WISH OF COMMITTEE. Hamilton Wright, representing the Cal- ifornia Promotion Committee, spoke of the wish of the committee to co-operate in bringing the National Butter Makers’ convention to San Francisco in 1805. It was decided that the Promotion Commit- tee and the California Creamery Opera- tors’ Assocfation should begin an imme- diate campaign toward securing the con- vention, | C. E. Hill was appointed to confer fur- | ther with the committee as to preliminary steps. California literature will be sent | to all the delegates to the St. Louis con- | vention, and a special train will carry California butter makers to the exhibition city, so that a fight may be successfully waged for the convention of 1905, LR e DAMAGE CLAIMS T0 BE ADJUSTED } Southern Pacific Must Pay for Change of Grades.

Fixes Cost of Tfeating Entire Width cf the Street at $25,000. —_—— The Board of Public Works is preparing to take up the proposition of treating Point Lobos avenue, from Central to Twenty-fourth avenues, with crude petro- leum, and will shortly receive a report from City Engineer Grunsky outlining the cost and method of the proposed improve- ment. The board will take action as the result of a petition filed by the Point Lcbos Improvement Club, which consid- ers the improvement a desirable one. The City Engineer in his report will consider the matter from three points of view. The first will be the oiling of the avenue for its entire width of seventy-six | feet, together with the admixture of rock or gravel scréenings designed to make a roadbed almost as hard as a bituminous | rock pavement. The cost of the improve- | ment in that shape the City Engineer says will approximate $25000. This will | include the thorough mixing of the .oil| and the screenings, together with thé roll- | ing of the same by machinery until the | compound has developed into a perfectly | smooth surface. | The second method of treating the ave- nue will ‘be to oil the same for a central width of sixteen feet in the same manner | as the first method outlined. The City | Englneer estimates the cost of this par- tial treatment at from $5500 to $6000. The third method suggested by the City ‘ Engineer will be to sprinkle the central width of sixteen feet with ofl instead of | water, and the cost of this treatment | would be but $600 yearly. Of course, the | same results could not be obtained as in! the other method, but a smooth and dust- less pavement could be secured at a small cost. The question as to who shall stand the | cost of the improvement is one for the Board of Public Works to decide at a | tuture time. Assuming that the property owners were wiliing to treat the entire ! road, or even the central width, by the first method named, it might be that the | city would stand half the cost and the property owners the other half. Should that not be the case the Board of Works ! may expend the money now utilized out | of the “county roads fund” to keep Point | Lobos avenue in repalr to treat it with ofl | at a cost of $600, as suggested by the City Engineer in the third method. | RSSO Accuses Husband of Bigamy. Mrs. Maggie Wiley, wife of Thomas Wiley, former Chief of Police of Van- couver, B. C., called at police headquar- ters yesterday and sald she wanted to have her husband arrested on a charge of bigamy. said Wiley had deserted her some time ago, and she had learned that he had married a woman in San Jose eight months ago, who was known as Mrs. Susan Amelia Wiley. She had met the second Mrs. Wiley in Seattle recently, who had given her the contract of mar-| riage executed in San Jose, and the com- | plainant had it with her as evidence. She was advised to procure the warrant in San Jose, where the offense was commit- ted, and she left saying she would go there at once. —————— Waiter in Serious Trouble. Raymond Elliott, a member of the Cooks' and Walters' Union, was arrested vesterday by Detectives Bailey and An- thony and booked at the City Prison ona ! charge of placing a minor in a house of | 1l repute. The minor is Marfe Leyva, 17 vears of age, who came here in May last from Los Angeles and met Eiliott at a dance one Sunday night. The girl was | also arrested and will be held as a wit- | ness. The police say that Elliott has two | other girls in similar houses on Mason | and O'Farrell streets. ADVERTISEMENTS. VITAL FORCE Is Crushed by Chronic Troubles. One of the most weakening, undérmin- ing troubles which mankind is heir to is hemorrhoids or piies. The victim is care- less and neglectful of the disease at first | because the pain is slight and the bleed- ing may only occur occasionally, or he may be reassured by the occasional disap- | pearance of the symptoms. And vet if at | the very start he had found a rational remedy to soothe the inflammation he | would probably never have had a return of this irritating malady. Plles may develop at any scason of the year, and at almost any age of the vic- | tim; the abuse of cathartics often causes | this trouble and a period arrives when the dread of pain at stool becomes so | great that the sufferer begins to neglect the calls of nature and the bowels are! either forced to retain the feces or are | only partially cleared, on account of the attendant upon a thorough | movement. Before you reach this stage use a rem- | edy which removes the cause, ihereby | eradicating the diseage, and that is the | Pyramid Plle Cure, which is sold by all | drugglsts at 3 cents a package; it is in the | form of a suppository, is applied direct- | a complete cure, quickly and painlessly. A valuable littie book on the cause and | cure of piles is published by the Pyramid | Drug Co., Marshall, Mich., and we ad- vise every sufferer to send for a copy of it People who have suffered from piles for years are often astonished at the instant relief experienced from the first applica- tion. Another important advantage is| the fact that any one can use the remedy without detention from business or inter- | ference with daily occupation. “I feel it my duty to recommend the Pyramid Pile Cure, for after suffering ten | vears with a most diStressing form of | Piles, I am entirely cured, thanks to this | remedy.

STREET ORATORG HARE VICTORIONS 1 Volume Guide to Systematic Readings of the Whole Work. You can pay the balance at the rate of only 1l0ca rer to Their Suit for Injunction. For the second time in the Superior Court of this city and county have the Soclalists defended their right to deliver speeches on the street corners. Some months ago Judge Seawell decided that street orators are acting within the law in addressing crowds on the streets. Yes- terday Judge Hunt rendered a similar de- cision in the case of Von Braun et al. against the Chlef of Police, He over- ruled the demurrer of the police to Von Braun's complaint for an injunction re- straining Chief Wittman from arresting certain Soclalist orators who nightly de- | liver addresses on political and other sub- jects at various street corners. Judge Hufit did not go into the ques- tion of the right of political parties to He decided the case on contention of the plaintiffs that they were not unlawfully obstruct- ing the streets, the truth of which con- tention was admitted by the defendants. He held that, in view of such admission and because of the fact that it was not shown that the plaintiffs conducted meet- ings violative of law or offensive to decency, or that they fomented violence or disturbed public peace, the police had not the right to arrest them. JUDGE HUNT’S OPINION. Following is Judge Hunt's opinion: The complaint herein charges that defendant, as Chief of Police of«this city and county, ar- rested the plaintiff for addressing a public meeting, on political topics. in the pubiic streets. The complaint charges that the plaintiffs and other speakers In addressing such meetings violated no law of the State or ordinance of the city. The prayer is that the defendant and officers of the Police Depart- ment be enjoined from arresting such speak- ers or breaking up thelr meetings. The plaintiffs and their associate speakersgre mem- bers of the Socialist party. The defendant demurred to the complaint on the ground that it stated no cause for the is- suance of an injunction. 1In support of the demurrer it was argued that the plaintiffs unlawfully obstructed the public highway by gathering about them a large concourse of peo- ple whom they addressed; that such assem- blage, under such conditions, was illegal, and that the defendant, in his officlal capacity, had & right to dlsperse such assemblies, and if need be, to arrest the speakers. The complaint alleges that during a period of three months last past the members of the Socialist party have been engaged ‘“‘in ad- dressing public meetings assembled upon the streets of the city.”” REGULATED BY STATUTE. How far, and to what extent, the public stréeets may be occupled for the purpose of public meetings, Is a matter largely regu- lated either by statutory provisions or I ordinances. In this city we have an order of the Board of Su , adopted June 8, 1903, which forbids the obstruction of a street or sidewalk, “'except on occasions of public meet- Unless the doclalistic meetings in_question are conducted in some manner violative of | law, unless they offend against decency or fo- ment violence, or disturb the public peace, or otherwire offend against some statutory or local law, it would seem that the assemblage In_question is not unlawful. In view, however, of the order last refer- red to, and of the circumstances that the de- murrer m“m t&n. ug: of the ullanum of the nt that n ques- tion were not unlawfully conducted, the ques- tion &s to the right of a political party to con- duct its on the public streets of a municipality does not arise, and cannot be de- termined upon this demurrer.
