SAN JOSE, Jan. 2.—George T. Dun- | lap of Gilroy was granted a franchise for a single track electric road from this city to Gilroy {n 1%L A condition of the award was that Dunlap should pay to the Supervisors the sum of $250 for the right of way over the Monterey road. After the franchise was voted to Dunlap noth- ing more was heard from him and the $250 was not.paid over. It was supposed that the matter had been abandoned but to-day Dunlap appeared before the Su- pervisors and tendered the amount of his original bid for the franchise. Dunlap maintains that the franchise is legally his and that there is no requirement as to when the purchase price should be pald. The matter will be held in abey- ance pending a decision from District Attorney Campbell. At the time Dunlap was granted the franchise in 1501 there was great activity in railroad affairs in this county. The interurban road was about to enter the fleld and many franchises were sought and granted. Most of the roads contem- plated were never constructed and the impression has prevailed that the fran- put & new phase on the local railroad situation, as other franchises which are now deemed of value may be resurrected. The right of way from San Jose to Gilroy is considered desirable, as it would connect a number of growing towns and would pass through one of the richest agricultural sections of the valley.

He declared that there was no better way in which to reach the people than to teach them the truth from the con- secrated temple of God. MACARTHUR ADVISES. If the clergy will thoroughly expound the word of God the church, he said, will then become *a most popular resort and employer to hear the truth im.” Some of the best men and women in the labor movement were essentially re- ligious. He considered that if the clergy less attention to the the- »gical ideal and give more to the prac- tical application of Holy Writ to indus- trial conditions the church would rise in the estimation of the workingman expounded who was invited to speak. He said that the question was whether the pulpit was the place wherein to discuss the solution of the labor problem. He eontended that the difficulty was not in the church but in soclety, not in the pulpit but in Wall street, not in the pew but in organized wealth. He sald that they faced to-day a conflict of classes. He considered that the laboring man respected Christidnity and teachings of Jesus, if not the inter- pretations given by clergymen. The Rev. Dr. E. BE. Baker of Oakland was another outside the Episcopal church present who was invited to speak. The doctor. while expressing his warm feeling toward union labor, held that the pulpit was not the place to arbitrate matters in dispute. t the close of the discussions Bishop Nichols was evidently delighted with the open and what he designated “straight from the shoulder and lp” manner the themes had been treated, and hoped that the conferences In the future would be a forum where they might meet for sim- flar free speech.
