It was a happy thought to organize the scns and daughters of the ploneers of Cali- fornia into a fraternity that should forever keep in special remembrance the patriotism, the devotion and the labors of their fathers | and_miothers.

Those of us that have passed the | meridian trust and believe that the destinies | of our beloved State are sate in your hands— | that under vour leadership California will keep step, not only with the rest of our great | country, but with all the forceé of civiliza- | tion and human improvement.

A great trust is com- | mitted to you; California is seated at the | gates of an empire. She fronts the Orient | just awaking to new and marvelous life. Our State will soon take first rank. It is her destiny. Is it the destiny of her native sone and daughters to guide and direct her forces wisely and well? You, and you alone, can tell with certainty.

Pardee, who said: This_anniversary of the birth of the Golden State finds Californ: people happy, content- ed and prosperous. To us the God of nations has ever been kind. Over us is hovering the destinies that the ever westward course of the empire has given to our land. And hurry- ing down upon us, with a speed never known before, afe events, responsibilities and oppor- tunities that will make our State the re- incarnated Greece and Rome of the twentieth To furnish men and women for ork, such as is already here, is California's present duty. Is the race of men and women born beneath her genial skies possessed of virtue and of force of mind that will compel such bending of events and men as California needs demand? Or shall we find Napoleons in the throng of those who come to vs from other climes? A race of great men and women must, at least until stern nature wills It otherwise, produce its like. The men and women, ploneers who came to California two score vears and more ago, were strong and sturdy both in mind and limb. The weaklings never left the homestead nor dared the dapgers that the journey hither called for. Our ploneers carved from the wilderness an emvire and upreared a State, which, in hardly more than half a century, compelled the admiration of the world and has drawn to her as the magnet does the steel well nigh a million and three-quarters of hardy men and beauti ful women, our native State as on!

LOUIS, Sept. 9—Speeches by, prominent Californians and by Presi-| dent Francis, the distribution of fruits and wines and the music of good bands were the features of the California day celebration to-day at the World’s Fair. About 1000 people gathered in the rear of the California building, where the exercises were held, and many more came later while the fruits and wine | were being distributed. ' At an angle of the building had been erected the staging on which the bar- | rels of fruit were placed. In front of this and extending around one side and the rear of the building was a board counter guarded by a rail.

In the early times of our order it was not dreamed that it would attaln such a place in the commonwealth's activities as it has reached. Tt has performed t first duty of love and more than that it has builded upon character. Tt has taken upon itself the charge to lift up the patriotism of the sons of Cali- fornia, to make them better men for their affillation with this great organization and to keep uppermost in their minds an, ever- strengthening pride in strong devotion to the State and to our country. People of Oakland. in the name of the Na- tive Sons of the Golden West I thank you for the hospitable welcome to your city. Mrs. Ella E. Caminetti, speaking as grand president of the Native Daugh- ters, gave her reply to the speeches of welcome in the following words: It is & pleasure for mé to be able to greet you in.the name of the Native Daughters, We are proud of our State and, perhaps, may be pardoned if on this day we shall be exultant in our pride. Our pioncer fathers and mothers were the hardy men and self-sacrificing women who laid_the foundation of our glorious Call- fornia, To our mothers we owe a debt of loving gratitude for their undying and unfal. tering loyalty to duty and affection for hom that Deen inculcated in their descendants.

Governor Francis, in repiying, sald that while California was not a part of the Louisiana purchase, its acquisition was a direct result of that | purchase and, therefore, the celebration of its admission day might be looked upon as a Louisiana purchase cele- bration. He spoke appreciatively of the interest California had taken in the St. Louis Fair and the fine exhibit it had made. Lewls Byington, District Attorney of San Francisco, made a splendid speech, | which was often cheered, President Francis joining heartily in the ap- plause.

OAKLAND, Sept. 9.—Several acei- dents occurred to-day that resulted in injuries serious enough to make it LA SRt S necessary for the victims to be treated at the Receiving Hospital, but none resulted in permanent injury. A. G. Haesloop. a member of Golden Gate Parlor, was trying to open a soda- water bottle when it exploded and a, large piece of glass lacerated his chin. It is supposed that the heat caused the acid to expand. His escape from further injury was fortunate. H.

Cash accompanied both orders and the goods were promptly shipped. They arrived at their destination and the coffin was placed in an outbuilding.

Strange to relate, there were about fifty people from Redlands attending the meeting, they having doubtless received a quiet tip that such a meeting would be held. These are supposed to be converts whom the Jumpers succeeded in per- Suading to join the band before pub- lic opinion ran them out of the city. The news of the meeting spread rap- idly last night and there was soon a big crowd gathered about the house. The Jumpers became frightened and promised that they would leave the city as soon as the men of the party had completed the contracts upon which they are at work. ————— Binks—Don't you think Harduppe has quite a breezy way with him? ‘Winks—Yes, especially when he blows into your office trying to raise the wind on a draft.—Town Topics.
