LOAN ASSOCIATIONS.

The annual meeting of the California
League of Mutual Building and Loan
Associations, just held in this City, calls
attention to some matters of interest in
connection with this plan of home
building. 1t is surprising to hear from
Frank Otis, president of the league that
San Francisco ranks next to Philadelphia,
which is the first of all the large cities
having its population housed in dwellings
owned by its occupants. This is all the
more astonishing in view of the fact that
San Francisco is only ninth in size in the
United States and that we have been
accustomed to hear great deal about
floating population" People who have
homes do not drift; they are as well
anchored to industry and prosperity as to
patriotism.
This is a condition general throughout
the State, and that building and loan asso-
Citations have had much to do with it can
not be doubted when we reflect that in
California there are $50 such institutions,
with an actual invested capital of over
81 900, with record of over $15 ,000, 900
d1SburSed for matured or withdrawn
shares and with 10000 members and
10000 homes. Eight or nine years ago
this plan of borrowing had a tremendous
boom, and while many mistakes were
made at the beginning and by reason of
hard times the stock was not generally
matured as early as was expected, the idea
still remains excellent and its operation
usually successful. The creation of a
State Commission to- regulate their con-
duct was a wise provision and has already
operated to eliminate all concerns that
were not properly organized or conducted.
Bankers long ago realized the fact that
while this form of borrowing apparently
lnterferes with their business of lending it
is particularly useful in reaching a large
number of persons who have not the
ability through thrift or foresight to repay
loans in the bulk required under bank
methods, and that when a man by any
means has secured his own home by
pursuing a systematic course of small
savings and has begun to feel its benefits
and responsibilities he is very likely to
start a bank account, and that in any
event he is better citizen and contributes
more substantially than formerly 10 the
welfare and stability of the community.
Any man who owns his home deserves
respect which even opulent renters cannot
expect to command,

PEOPLE TALKED ABOUT.

Mr.. jameson, the sailing master of the Prince
of Wales yacht, is an Irishman, and, perhaps,
the best living judge of yachts build and
rig.
The Duke of Sutherlands two sons, the Mar
quis OF Stafford, who is z, and Lord Alistar

DR.. Adam Clarke, even when boy, had
memory so phenomenal that after hearing a
sermon lasting an hour he could go home and
repeat the whole verbatim, initiating the man

Mark Twain has been quite a prolific in
ventor. His first patent taken out in 1871,
was strap for suspending trousers. He has
been assignee of quite a number of patents
several of recent date. His patent scrapbook
has been quite success.
General Malone, it was said. is man utterly
without fear. During the Rebellion, on the
battlefield, the distinguished Virginian was
reputed to be the calmest of men. General Lee
thought great deal of him, and, according to
report, had arranged for Malone to succeed
him as head of the Confederate army should he
be killed.
NJ. g. Goron, the famous French detective, is
about to retire from the police. He is perhaps
his profession. 1t was NJ. Goron who was in
trusted with all the arrangements for insuring
the safety OF the Czarewitch Nicholas during
his visit to Paris some three years ago The
Russian Prince, accompanied by the detective,
made tour OF the lowest quarters of Paris in
disguise and visited some dens of the worst re-

his favor little silver pin in the form of lu-
cifer match. Some of these pins have come to
America. Others are scattered over Germany,
and doubtless some are to be found in various
corners OF Europe, for the enormous business

with great variety of men from all parts of

AN ORIGINAL IDEA.

W. r. Ellis editor of the Livermore
Herald, is preparing to put IN operation an
original and somewhat startling idea. BY
reason OF the fact that the Treadwells and
other capitalists are constructing electric
lines which will bring Corral Hollow coal
INTO use, and because a company has been
formed for employing the refuse coal at
the mine for the generation of electricity
to be sold for power and lights, the charm
ing town of Liyermore will come proml-
nently into notice. But this cannot be
made to bring sufficient results unless the
people display the requisite intelligence
and energy. For the purpose of educating
them and the other residents of the county
Mr.. Ellis has started movement to COM
bine the efforts of all newspapers published
in Alameda County.
Mr.. Ellis declares: "The first concern
of the newspapers should be to promote
the education of the people now here.
Great numbers of our present population
are practically living in ignorance and un-
thinking Incidence. They lack the very
information which we are anxious to con-
vey to the frost-bItten denizens of the
effete East. The local papers first and
constant mission is to keep its readers ad-
ylsed OF every new truth relative to the
possibilities of soil and climate that the
best experience of the most progressive
farmers may verify. So, to begin with,
the idea of publishing any matter what
ever that is especially addressed to stran-
gers should be abolished. Let the columns
of all Alameda County newspapers be
filed with information for the good of the
people now here, and it will be of value to
those whom we want to bring here"
This is hitting the prevalent evil of the
State squarely-our own people are igno-
rant Of TIE blessings which nature has
lavished on them. 1t is absurd to expect
settlers when our lack of intelligence and
industry is warning to them to remain
away. II Californians did their duty by
their opportunities there would be no rea-
son to complain of lack of immigrants
Mr. Ellis has made one of the most valu-
able suggestions ever offered to the III
terror press. The newspapers as rule
have done their duty nobly in the way of
urging the advantages of living in Califor-
MIA, but clearly they can accomplish still
better results by educating and inspiring
their own people. No county could make
mistake by adopting the plan outlined
for the Alameda County papers.

WILL HELP MINING.
GEORGETOWN (CaI.D Cazette.


A. j. Brooks and s. M. McCloud, the travel

ana writing them up with view to promoting
the mining industry. They will take in the
whole State, following along the line of the
mother lode, with the same object in view.
Notwithstanding the fact that mining is
the first and greatest industry of the State and
the superstructure upon which all others
were built, THE CALL is the first of the
great dailies to champion its cause and lend
helping hand. In that paper, however, the

LETTERS FROM The PEOPLE.

To the Editor Of San francisco Catl-SIR
Being subscriber to THE CALL 1 take the
liberty OF asking you a fair question. While
the sidewalk ordinance is tei0g enforced so
strictly, even as far out as the cemeteries how is
1t that some people, and more especially the
frultvender at the corner of Kearny and Bush
streets, are exempt? / have no desire to see
any one made to suffer loss, but think fair
play is jewel, and since a fruit-stand, as far
out as Broderick street, near Bush, must be re-
moved, l think the one at the Daily Post build
ing could be treated in like manner.
