ASSESSORS OF STATE MEET IN SANTA ROSA Governor Pardee Delivers an Address on Taxation and Revenue. Special Dispatch to The Call. SANTA ROSA, Dec. 12—The State con- | vention of County Assessors of California assembled here this afternoon for several | Gays’ sessions. President Henry P. Dal- ton of Alameda County called the meeting | to order shortly after 2 o’clock in the Su- perior Court room, which had been taste- fully decorated for the occasion. There were short addresses of welcome by Mayor John P. Overton, Superior Judges Albert G. Burnett and Emmett Seaweil and Assessor Frank B. Dowd. The first business of the session was the election of officers. The officers ware all re-elected except the vice president, | and as a compliment to the City of Roses Sonoma County’s popular Assessor was named for that position. Following are the officers: President, Henry P. Dalton of Alameda County; vice president, | Frank E. Dowd of Sonoma County; sec. | retary, R. T. Jones of Contra Costa | County; assistant secretary, Thomas M. | Robinson of Alameda County; treasurer, C. L. Ortman of San Joaquin County. President Dalton in forecasting the ac- tion of the convention sald that there was no important work cut out for the meeting, as this was an off year and the meeting was more of a soclal gathering, where the Assessors could get together and compare notes and have a pleasant little outing. The Assessors, he said, would heartily approve of the plan of the Tax and Revenue Commission to separate the collection of State and county taxes, Governor Pardee, who is here attending the meeting, spoke on taxation and reve- nue.

SALT LAKE RAILROAD | HAS FIGHT ON HANDS Dock Builders | Bridge and Then Prevent Its Restoration. Special D! h to The Call. LOS ANGELES, Dec. 12.—The Los An- geles Dock and Terminal Company, which proposes to dig a new deepwater harbor within the corporate limits of the city of Long Beach, began proceedings to-day in what promises to be a legal battle which may ultimately seriously interfers with the Salt Lake raflroad’s line to the har- bor behind the Government breakwater at | San Pedro. The dock company entered into a con- tract with a big San Francisco dredging company to dredge a large area of tide lands, giving it out that the lands were to be reclaimed and put on the market as building lots. It was necessary to take out & Salt Lake rafiroad bridge to let the | big dredger pass into the slough, and that | work was done this morning. As soon as | the bridge was down the official an- | nouncement was made that the dock company is not in the real estate busi- ness, but, backed by unlimited capital | supplied by a syndicate of wealthy mer- chants, it proposes to build an entirely new harbor, capable of accommodating the largest vessels on this coast. There | is nothing to prevent the work if the new company has money enough, and it seems to have all that is necessary. Once its dredger wes through the bridge the com- pany applied for and secured an injunc- tion against the Salt Lake Raflroad Com- pany forbidding them to put the bridge back and claiming that it crosses naviga- ble water. The United States Circuit | Court issued the order and the bridge has | not been restored. | ——— Your Name In Gold. | Free of charge on all fine leather card and | cigar cases, memorandum and bill books, di- aries, cameras, travellng sets and all fine leather goods.

System Be Built by Way | of "Station Near Palace * CALL BUREAU, POST BUILDING, WASHINGTON, Dec. 12.—In his annual report, published to-day, Second Assist- ant Postmaster General Shallenberger recommends the installation of a pneu- matic tube mail service from the general | postoffice via station K, which is near the Palace Hotel, to the ferry station in San | Francisco. He says: | _The completion of the new postotfice build- ing and its occupancy as the general postoffice make It necessary t some rellef be pro- vided to offset in great part the delay caused by the location of the new postoffice more than one and & half miles the ferry landing and on the edge of the business dis- triot. At the present time the mail between the general postoffice and the ferry is car- ried by an electric car and the time required |'is twenty minutes. This is the best can | be done under existing conditions, but it does | not prevent delay to a very considerable mall | passing between the general postotfice and the ferry-boats connecting With railway lines | which carry 80 ver cent of the malil coming | and going from San Francisco, as well as many | stations supplied via the car lines at the foot of Market street, where the transportation lines of San Francisco concentrate. A pueumatlc tubs service between the ferry | station and the general postoffice by way of station K would place the postal sarvice of | San Franotsco in a much better condition. Station K employs fifty carriers, does a busi ness of $314,085 a year and serves a I i3 Its matl w be advanced in dellvery over the present method, ms would also the mall of the large district supplied by the general postoffice. The change in the site of the postoffice to & loca- tion so far removed from the ferry l-ndln? involves, under existing conditions, a delay of more than half an hour in the handiing of Philippine atch from that port. The dispatch of malls arriving on the morning of the day of departure of steam- ers is serlously endangered by guch delay In handling, and on account of this delay some malls are .necessarily held over for the next steamer—a delay of weeks to important mail. With pneumatic fube connection between the ferry landing ard the general postoffice this mall will be placed in the postoffice within a | few minutes after its mrrival at the ferries | and important forelgn mails of the whole country will trequently be advanced one eamer, "F’or {hll reason it is felt that the question of establighing & tube service is not merely one of advapcing important business mall of | this Pacific Coast metropolls, but is one that conterns the whole country, since it safes guards, ag well as may be, the dispatoh of the frans-Pacific mails arriving before the depart- ure of steamers. A commission considered the question of tubs connections to stations B and ‘B, but |0 not consider that it is advisable to pro- Vide for such connections at this time.
