Editoy of Out West Entertains Andi- . ence With Humorous Address. Charles” F. Lummis, editor of Out $t, and a member of the Los An-| géles Chamber of Commerce, was the - Tkt to speak “'Co-operation.” Mr. Lummis 4 his remarks with a story, hu- Jus to-the extreme, but a perfect *, - illusti - oper: n of the advantages of co- jon. In part he said: California is more perfectly adapted 1o-matrimony than most any place in “¢he w ..apd o of .~ strong and weak and people every. walk in life. Is it not so then ~that these people must be adapted to mt apother according to thejr respec:- ive class? A man never, or rarely, nizrries @ woman until he knows her. He shouid. . not marry her until he knows her and she knows him, and 1 hgre should be no divorces. Therz would be none if people tried to live in perfect co-operation. A sailor might - try to lift an anchor and give up in . Gedpair. .Another sailor might try in - vain and still another. But if these three sallors put their combined strength to the work it would be a . ®imple matter to accomplish. And so ‘it s throughout the world. Co-opera- tion, that is the rule that all men - sbowid practice end there would be far " foisre harmony in this world. . S —— FOR VARIED AGRICULTURE. Diversity of Products Is Essential to . Prosperity of the State. A ihoughtful plea for “Diversified Farming- in_California” was dellvered - by L-B. McMahill of the Central Coast Coifities: -Lmprovement Association, who said, among other things: © The faimer who is able to make his -age produce the greatest amount dnd the greatest variety of products, . @10 ‘who has therefore to expend for that which he cannot produce the least 7 amolmt of money, succeeds.

The fault of man and his improvidence or lack of thrift and energy alone can be held responsible for the fajlures which may have been or may be.” | P IoN £ VALUE OF ART IN CITIES. Ex-Mayor Phelan Argues for Decora- tion of California Municipalities. “The Growth of Municipal Art In California” gave ex-Mayor James D. Phelan a subject in which he is greatly interested, and he improved the op- portunity with one of the most telling addresses of the evening. He said in part: . “A city is a place where people must, perforce, live and it should be made livable and lovable, and then those who | are distant shall seek it and those who Paris I asked a small tradesman why | he d@id mot bring his wares to New | York, where he would find a larger | market and a more profitable business, and he looked up in surprise and said: “Why, I would have to leave my dear Paris’ New York is tolerable to the rich, but it is desolation to the poor. In { Paris every street is a picture, every park and square is a paradise, every In walking. through the city one comes upon mon- uments erected in commemoration of great men, great events or great ideas, which exalt the souls of the citizens, stirs their gratitude and awakens their emulation. s “An old Greek said, ‘Children should not be brought up amidst images of evil, lest their souls should assimilate the ugliness of ‘their surroundings.’ Brought up in an environment of beau- ty, their souls and their minds will ab- sorb beauty, which enters into their | lives and influences their actions. | Hence, when we want anything beauti- ful or dainty in art, in construction, in | cloths, silks and tapestries, we still, | after one hundred years of American | progress, have to turn to the cities of | the Old World. The Vendome Column and the Arch de Triomphe -tell the| Frenchman the story of Napoleon the | Great, just as Strassburg Monument, | in the Place de Concorde, tells the na- | tional humiliation caused by Napoleon the Little. In Trafalgar Square, in| London, every Englishman is reminded | in his daily walk of the glorious death | of Nelson, fighting the battles of his| country, and the Wellington Monument eeps greep the memeory of the Iron | Duke. “Should . these lessons be lost? San Francisco has erected a monument to | Admiral Dewey’s victory (applause) | and so long as it stands every passer- | by will recall with pride the prowess of | American arms, and the city is now | engaged in erecting a monument to the martyred and lamented McKinley in | order that passing generations may not | forget the lessons of his life and death. | From all parts shall visitors come to | enjoy the hospitality of -a city which has a care for its external appear- { ances.” e e wl < 8 CALIFORNIA'S MINERS. State’s Great Mineral Industry Is De- scribed in Eloguent Terms. M. E. Dittmar, editor of Mineral Wealth, was the next speaker, his | toast being “Mining in California.” | Mr. Dittmar said in part: “For the fifty-six years prior to the discovery of gold in California—from 1782 until 1848—the United States produced but $24,786,000 in gold; dur- ing the fifty-six years that have elapsed since gold was discovered in California this State alone has added to the wealth of the world $1,400,- 000,000 in gold, and the greater por- tion of this vast sum is coursing through the arteries of commerce to- day, providing that ready means of ex- change so necessary in modern com- mercial life, By far the greater por- | tion of California’s gold output is the product of the placer mines, or, in other words, from the surface. For- tunes came easy to the placer miners,’| and in many instances were spent easy; in our mountain counties a pio- neer cabin here and there, occupied by some lonely pioneer, who dreams of placer days, “The days of old, the days of gold, the days of '49,’ may now be | seen, typical of the time when an ounce a day was very poor pay. While these pioneers may soliloquize in the lines of James Whitcomb Riley: Hain't no sense in wishin'. yit Wisht to goodness I couid” jes' Gee the blame worl’ ‘round, and git Back to that ole happiness. (Laughter.) “While they may be forced to solilo- |quize thus, California owes them a | debt of gratitude. The world owes them a debt of gratitude, not alone for what their industry added to it in permanent wealth, but because from the rude beginning of the placer miner a great industry has arisen and mining has been taken from the purely specu- lative and placed with the most profit- able, legitimate walks of life.” e 2 EXPANSION OF CUI/TURE. President Wheeler Closes the Pro- gramme With Noteworthy Address. The next address was tohave been de- livered by Fletcher A. Cutler on “Cali- fornia’s Lumber Interests,” but as hé was unavoidably absent, the evening was brought to a close with a brilliant speech by Benjamin Ide Wheeler, who spoke on the “Expansion of Culture in California.” In part he said: . It is late, and therefore my remarks must be as brief as possible. See, the midnight hour has just struck, and possibly the carmen. (Laughter.) I have been called upon, gentlemen, to talk on ‘The sion of Culture in ‘California.’ I acted as a judge in a 1 | Yolo County Chamber of should be able to talk on culture.” President Wheeler then praised the public schools, colleges and universi- ties of the State as being the foremost instruments in the development of cul- ture. He elaborated upon the number of students that graduate from college every year, cultured and qualified to take up the responsibilities of life. He further referred to several students in particular that had graduated from the University of California and are now holding high positions in life. He was also roundly applauded when he men- tioned the name of the late Frank Nor- ris, —_— THE LIST OF GUESTS. Distinguished Assemblage of Men From All Parts of Golden State.

Frowenteld, San- | STOCK PRICES ARE SLUGGISH Market Is Free From Any Pressure of Selling to Procure “Cash Resources BONDS CONTINUE DULL e e British Speculators Show No Special Desire to Invest in American Securities| { | NEW YORK, April 30.—The bank’ statement was the only news with any | 'import.lnt bearing on the stock mnr-i ket, and it was accepted with languid | interest. This wagpartly due to the | feeling that the statement was not an | accurate showing of actual condition! An increase, though a small one, in the | | cash itemn of the bank statement in the week of the largest gold exports on record is an anomaly in itself. It is partly explained by the fact th: the statement does not reflect the $3,-/ 1 700,000 shipment of gold that went out, | to-day and which will be carried over iinto next week's statement. Even al- lowing for this, the cash reserve is more | than $2,000,000 better than was esti- mated from the known movements of | money. Local cash operations are given ! as the explanation for the discrepancy. | The increase in the loan item was not greater than expected in view of the week’s rallroad issue of notes. 1 Further issues are expected, and the placing of the $37,000,000 New York City loan is expected to affect the loan item still further. It is also generally be- lieved that the outgo of gold up to this time, except the Morgan shipment that went to-day, is for other purposes than the Panama canal payment, the prin- cipal portion of which, therefore, re- mains to be provided for. ' | The details for the operation are still somewhat obscure to the Wall street ;'mind, especially the manner of the ac- | | tual withdrawal of Government depos- its from the bank and gold from the treasury and their immediate lodgment. ! This uncertainty was one of the fa tors in the stagnation of the day's stock market. The price movements of any interest were confined to speclal- | ties. Total bond salés, par value, $997,- J 000. . There has been no sign of life in the!‘ investment demand for stocks this | week and prices have darifted slug- | gishly under the small operations of the habitual traders in vain attempts to make profit in and out of the mar- | ket. The ease and abundance of money | keeps the .market f from pressure ‘of selli to procure cash resources, tand th who are not obliged to sell | ' have every.incentive to keep their of- | ferings off the market, in view of. its | | small power of absorntion. ! i At the same.time the abundant facil- | ¢ Ities_in the money market have.proved | no inducement to operators to accumu- ! late stocks for: speculative purposes, as | doubt and uncertainty over the future course of values offers no assurance of profits” on_the operatjfon. .

The call on each bank is for 10 per cent of the public deposit of such bank as it stood before the recent 20 per cent | call, thus making & total withdrawal | of 30 per cent of public deposits. H To-day’s call, however, exempts all | depositories whose authorized balance before the recent call was less than 15100,000.
