selected body of specialists II quote
from the preface, which is dated July
~, 1876: IAN unusually large amount of
space was given to the department of
Mechanical Progress, but not dispropor-
tionately, when it is considered how
characteristic of the century has been
the advance in this field and how largely
other progress has depended upon it,
The same consideration justifies the elab-
crate and extended treatise on Scientific
Progress
By far the greatest amount of this &C.
complishment belongs, so far as it's COM
mercial and productive aspect is con-
cerned, to the period from about 1850.
By that time the steam engine had been
perfected. The old Newcomer engine Of
1869 with duty" of $500, 900 foot-pounds
per one bushel of Welsh coal had devel-
oped into the improved Cornish engine of
1850 with a duty" of 100000 foot
pounds. The factory system had come
into systematic operation, the greatest
revolution in production in the history of
industry; so that when England, about
1850, changed the tariff policy under which
she had grown great, and started out to
impose free trade upon the world, it is
estimated that her labor-saving machin-
cry represented the capacity of 100000, 900
pairs of human hands.
IN AGRICULTURE
the period in question saw the perfection
of the pillow, the seeding machine, the
grain drill, and the moving machine.

idly into use. Between 1851 and 1876
nearly 5000 patents were taken out in this
country alone for harvesters and their
attachments The threshing machine was
brought to perfection in 1858. The self

effect and that of improvements on the
inventions named, had nothing like the
significance for agriculture which the de-
vices that came in from 1850 to 1873 had
TO this period also belongs the beginning
of scientific agriculture and the use of

and the inauguration and considerable

WILL NOT PAY LICENSES,
Bicycle Dealers Organize to
Fight the Quarterly Tax
of $15.
A TEST OF THE ORDINANCE.
The Association VIII Also Trace
Stolen Bicycles and Prose-
cute Thieves.

The owners of cycleries in this City have
determined to resist the payment of the
quarterly license fee of SIS which was
recently imposed by the License Commit
tee of the Board of Supervisors, and they
have formed an organization to fight the
matter in the courts.
Yesterday morning about eighty of the
small bicycle-dealers and representatives
of all the wholesale houses dealing in
''wheels" met at bicycle-shop at Golden
Gate avenue and Leavenworth street and
effected permanent organization, Of
which Samuel Backus was elected presi-
dent and A. Lobe secretary.
The new organization is called the San
Francisco Bicycle-dealers Protective Asso-
citation. Its primary object is to raise a
fund to be used for defense in case any
arrests of dealers are made for refusing to
pay the license. There will be no lack of
money, either, for one wholesale house
subscribed $1000 and it is said that $40, 900
or 900 can be raised at short notice
should so much be necessary.
''The fact of the matter is" said III. r.
Wynne, who conducts a small bicycle
store, "that there is distinct prejudice in
certain quarters against the man who
rides wheel.
''It is not that we object to paying a
license on our business, but we object to
paying one anywhere near as large as $15.
| know men in this City who receive $50 to
$3.50 day whose license is not nearly so
large, and it is not just that a man who
takes in from $4 to $40 a day from the
rental of wheels should be forced to pay
such tax especially when the great wear
and tear on his stock is considered.
another thing, the rate of $15 is set as
minimum and if we do not fight that it
will jump to $50 or more very soon. The
thing is unjust and should be stopped now
as well as any time.
''In attempting to collect this license
Mr.. Lees has got himself very much dis
liked.
I'VE went before the License Committee
to get the license reduced, and there met
with the prejudice against wheelmen
which l spoke of. Supervisor King was
very impatient. He wanted to know il

At a meeting of the Board of Harbor
Commissioners yesterday communica-
ton was received from the Manufacturers
and Producers Association commencing
the board for their expressed intention of
using California material in the new ferry
landing and of changing the plans of the
same to exclude foreign material.
Engineer Holmes submitted plans for an
upper gangway for the passengers of the
Stockton river steamers. He explained
that the business of these boats had grown
so large that more and better accommoda-
tions should be provided for the people
using that popular means of transporta-
tion. The proposed gangway would be a
sort of gallery above the floor of the
wharves, where passengers boarding the
boats would be above teams and freight
handlers. 1t would not cost over $1,000.

legislature.

The Civic Federation has decided to ex-
tend its influence in the political arena of
California. The society will organize in
every section of the State.
This plan of action was determined upon
after the executive committee of the So
ciety had Investigated the feasibility of the
undertaking. The officers of the society
say they have fully realized that to be-
come a potential factor in politics they
must have the political support of the
country voters behind them.
Secret conference meetings of the fedora
ton are held daily. The subject of ex-
tended organization has received the thor
ough consideration of this committee.
Before the next campaign the Civic FEEDER
alton expects to have headquarters in
eyerv county and representatives in every
political precinct of the State.
The campaign will be carried on in be-
half of political reform. The farmers will
be urged to vote for the federations S
candidates.
George T. Gaden is one of the leaders in
the new movement. He has realized that
if the organization is going to accomplish
anything in breaking up the corrupt politi-
cal rings of this City, the federation must
have sufficient number of representatives
in the Legislature.
When Mr.. Gaden was spoken to upon
the question of the society extending its
field of action he admitted that such
course had been decided upon and that
there was committee drawing up new by
laws for the society.
"I have" said Mr.. Gaden, "come to the
conclusion that this will be the only basis
to fight municipal corruption and to secure
for the Mayor of the City of San Francisco

morning. When the court opened about
200 Chinese were waiting in the corri-

Judge Conlan looked surprised at the in
fiux of Chinese, and asked Attorney Rior-
dan, who is special prosecutor, what was
the matter. The attorney replied that the
Chinese were evidently friends of the
prisoner and there might be trouble.
The Judge Immediately ordered Baillff
Kelly and Policeman Bean to clear the
courtroom of the Chinese, which was
promptly done. The Chinese stood in the

but wnen it came to ten and perhaps
twenty and no Sam Yup merchants to
offer assistance it became different ques-.
ton, so the following notice was posted all
over Chinatown:
Make no more disturbances. The case
of Mock Tai has been postponed. Do
not deal with the Sam Yups, but get
your goods elsewhere. Boycott them.
That is the better way. Ten of our men
were arrested this afternoon and we do
not want that to happen again. We want
you to keep quiet and we will win In the
end. Keep quiet and do not strike until
ordered.
Needless to say there were no more ar
rests.
Chinatown was almost deserted last
evening The theaters were very slimly
attended and few Chinese loitered on the
streets. The guides and special policemen
were on the alert, and no two of them ever
left their districts at the same time. Chief
Crowley had a number of extra men in
three of the alleys and Special who
knows every highbinde- in Chinatown
kept watch and ward over the consulate.
Should it ever come to open warfare the
lives of Consult General Ii Yuen Yeu and
the president of the Sam Yups, Lee Lii
Chuen, win be in danger, as they are
blamed for the whole trouble. The pre-
lim;nary trial of Mock Tai will bring the
matter to head.
isIf this trouble is not settled, and that
speedily, some of the best blood in China
town will be she'd" said Lyman j. Mowry
in talking about the matter. This is not
a highbinder warfare, but a case of tong
against tong, and the feeling is bitter. For

the members of the association upon such
matters as they are interested in person

The committee on public affairs was in

Notice was given that at the next meet
ing the subject of removing all sign boards
on and projecting over the sidewalks will
be discussed. A plan suggested is that the
merchants will call upon all owners OF
such distractions and have them remove
their signs. The association proposes to
gradually cause the removal of all obstruc.

service for the protection of property of

fight for the new charter before the Legls-
lature which will be elected next year"
The society's work is hindered to great
extent by the absence of Irwin j.. Truman,
the president. He is an accepted juror in
the Durrant case. Representatives, OF the
federation have made repeated trips to the
country. They have come back with
favorable reports, in all instances. The
farmers, these representatives state, are
ready to assist the movement.
w. d. Case Jr., the secretary of the
federation, has visited several of the small
towns in behalf of the society. He would
not talk upon the subject. Mr.. Case would
but confirm the statement that the society
had finally decided to organize for political
reform over all the State. 1t is not the
intention of the federation members to
put up candidates for election, at present.
This action will depend largely on their
success at the coming election.
