THE CITY JAIL AGAIN.

Possibility of Its Being Sold to the
Highest Bidder.
It will be rememb bered that six months
ago the HERALD sgitated the building of
new city Jail so vigorously that a
motion was mado in the council by Mr.
Munson to auction off the present
building for what it would bring. The
proposition was hailed with delight by
Councilman Munson's colleagues and
the motion was carried.
When the day was set for the auction
a heavy price was fixed upon the prop.
erty and the result was that there " ss
no purchaser. A postponement was
taken, when it was intended that the
auction plan would be tried again.
The date has gone by and there was
no attempt to sell the Jail property. 1t
10 well enough that there ives not, for,
although it is one of the most central
business locations in the city the price
set ia deemed exorbitsn..
Now the plan proposed, 80 1t is under
etood, is that the city council will invite
bids upon the lot, buildings and all,
with the understanding that the highest
and most reliable bidder shall be
allowed TO purchase the property In its
entirety.
The city council will no doubt take
immediate action in the matter. The
necessity for a new prison is known to
every resident in ths city. The present
excuse for Jail is nothing moro or less
than foul hole filled with disesss.
breeding sewer gas, darkness and filth.
1t is actually disgrace that such q
place is allowed in the heart OF the city,
to say nothing of the danger to health
and life of its inmates.

ellis of the nations. Japan can no longer
be ignored. She has emerged from the
bsrbaric and effeminate position hereto
fore assigned to all Asiatic statesS She
is perfect autonomy, backed by power,
intelligence. courage and the resources
that make the greatness OF all states.
She is foeman worthy OF any nations

civilized development which invites
other powers to interfere with her in
ternal policy. The most belligerent
nation will think twice before provoking
her to an essay of arms. As Admiral
Meade so happily expresses it. she ia

NEARING THE END.

The Commonw eaIers Sent to Jail by
Judge Hoss soon co Be Released.
Today the advance guard" of the 40
Common wealers sent to the county Jail
by Judge Ross for capturing Santa Fe
train on the Atlantic and Pacific railway,
will walk out of prison free men. The
guard" consists of the TRUSTEES who
have earned over two weaks' earlier re-
lease by hard work. There are only six
of them.
The remaining 81 Commonwealers
will. be released on October 18th, at the
expiration of the four months. They
are all very happy that their time OF
release is so near at band.
There were 375 OF the men who were
convicted of interfering with the rail-
way, which is in the bands OF receivers
and under the jurisdiction of the
United States court. They were sent to
the county jails OF this county San
Diego county, Fresno, Santa Barbara,
Ventura and San Bernardino counties,
divided almost equally between the
| prisons named.
The supporters OF the cauee through
which the CommoRweslers got into
trouble have already begun collection
of clothing and money in this city tc
assi1t the prisoners when they are re-
leased. Most OF them are without G
cent in the world, and should be encour
aged as far as possible to get new start
in life, that they may have an equa
chance with other men to earn an hon
est living.

the county Jail. They were excellent.
Jsiler Henry eats more OF that kind Of
beans than anything else, and he is not
from Boston either.
As to the meat, il Ia excsllent also.
In fact. Sheriff Cline gives the prisoners
as good meal as could be expected,
and not one of q dozen of the prisoners
interviewed complained OF the fare. Il
is true that during the hot days--on one
OF which the letter was written, Ssptem-
Der 16, the weather might have tainted
the meat. 1t was hot enough along
about that time to taint live beef.
The cook at the Jail was interviewed
on the bean question. He said that the
reporter had just eaten some of the beans
taken from the same vessel from which
the prisoners in the tanks were fed. The
article was first-class, seasoned finely
with onions, salt and pepper, and was
served in excsllent style. The prisoner
who wrote the criticism on the food lie
entirely too much OF an epicure to re-
main long in the county bsstile.

get their places through the favor of
the political organizations are subject to
such assessments as their party may

assessments they will not hesitate to
make all they can out of their official

the people permit the political parties

better and less than 80.
Sergeant Roy nolds and Private Peak
each came within one point of getting
gold medals. This is the best shooting
yet done BY any Of the Signal corps OF
the state, and is equal to company OF

15 bronze medals. There were 10 silver
medals won in the entire First brigade
last year. and the Signal corps captured
two of them. The members OF the corps
shot with 45 caliber Colts revolvers at

satollps Authority to Be Supreme in
This Country.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 23.-Bishop Kean,
dean of the Catholic university Of
America. has given ous the information,
as result OF his recent audiences with
the pope. that the latter would in the
encyclicsl letter soon to be issued, set
forth for the frat time important en-
largements in the functions, authority
and dignity of the apostolic delegation
in the United States over which Mon
signor Satolli presides. Bishop Kean
says he is impressed with the Desirable
ity Of establishing the pspsl legation
here on basis commsnsurats with the
extent and character OF this country.
The details of how this will be ac-
complishsd, the bishop does net state,
sc they will be shown in the encyolical.
1t is probable, however, that Monsignor
Satolli's jurisdiction will be enlarged
and his authority will be supreme in
this country and will not be subject to
appeals to Rome. The bishop said he
did not mean the establishment
the American delegate would extend to
cases of dispute and would be in the
nature OF supreme court, subject, how
ever to the papal power on ali questions
outside of those of church jurisdiction
and procedure. Bishop Kean regards
Monsignor Satolli as = permanency In
his position.
"Of course it is settled beyond quss-
ton that Monsignor Satolli will be
cardinal" he added. whether, how
ever, it will be next month or next year
10 not 80 certain"
Bishop Kean said that he had read
with regret an article by Bishop Spsld-
ing in the current North American Re-
view, ascribing the growth of the Amer
lean Protective association movement to
the discontent over the appointment oi
Monsignor Satolli as ALLOCATE to this
country. The bishop said ne hsa In

les. that the A. 2. A. was q passing ex-
preston of bigotry and was no longer

Gated foreigners who cannot read
