il is grave mistake for any voter
TO imagine that because it is an ''pfi
year. il is of no importance whether
he casts a vote or not. To the aver
age tax payer it is a good deal more
important that the right men should
be elected to the county Offices than
that this man or that should be made
Governor or Congressman or Presi-
dent. We want to see to it that an
honest conservative business man,
such as Z. ID. Lacey, is elected county
commissioner so that cur taxes may
be kept at the lowest point. We
want to see To it that a skilled ac-
countaut like Jas. Wakefield is elect
ed county clerk So that our property
may be properly entered upon the
tax rolls. And so on all the way
round. The men who manage our
county affairs for US are the men that
come closer to us than the far off
state or National officers, So it is
just as important to go to the polls
this year, and we hope that every
elector in the county will be there.

can electOT.

VALLEY ROAD SUPPLIES,
The First Sailing Vessel Ar
riveS With a Large Lot
of Spikes.
A Ridiculous Story That illustrates
the Animus Of Attacks
in Chicago.

A large consignment of railway spikes
arrived on the clipper ship Henry Hyde,
that came into port a few days since from
New York. They were transferred yester-
day to barges and will be taken up the
river to Stockton for the Valley road.
Rails, spikes, fishplates and other building
material for 100 miles of railway are now
on the way from New York In different
ships scattered along the route around the
Horn, and will arrive here from time to
time. There will be no delay in construc-
ton now that tremendous amount Of
these materials are already piledsup at
Stockton and it is expected that all sup
plies on the ocean will be in the company's
yards before they are actually needed.
The animus of the article in Chicago
paper that set forth ridiculous claim that
the Valley road had come under Southern
Pacific control was illustrated yesterday
by story retold from the same source by
an officer of the competing railway. Quite
recently funny yarn was spun by the
Chicago newspaper at the expense of Val
ley road directors, or rather what would
appear to be such at first glance. The in
ference was that the directors knew moth
ing OF railway construction, as the nara
tive ran something like this:
Scene-Meeting of directors of the Valley
road during a discussion on the question
of expenditures and economy in construc-
ton.
what IS this item I see here-fish-
plates?" asks one director who is intensely
mystified over the matter.
"And l would like to know who has
been guilty of such extravaganza as this"
says another member of the board, grow
ing indignant over what he considers to be
an attempt to inappropriate the peoples
money.
"Disgraceful! I move the item be
crossed off," remarks a third.
And l heartily second the notion
fourth director adds.
1T will be time enough to buy fshplates
when we have Pullman cars"
In view of the fact that Secretary Mackie,
who attends all sessions of the board, has
been a prominent official IN the Santa Fe
system; that Chief Engineer Storey has
been regarded as one of the ablest men in
railroad engineering on this coast; that
one director is president of the North Pa
cific Coast Railway, another was United
States engineer, another owns railroad
and still another has dealt quite extern
sively in railroad materials, the point to the
Chicago story may be taken for what it is
worth. An officer of the Valley road
criticized the matter as an underhand way
of iniuring the new enterprise inspired by
people whose interests are inimical to the
competing road.
The latter attempt in the same direction
was laughed at as a ridiculous article
which nobody familiar with the railway
situation in California, or with the Valley
road managers, would regard seriously.
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1895-09-07

had remained here. If Van Guelpen had
been actually dishonest in the matter he
could have made the deficit $500 or $4,000
instead of the amount that is actually
missing, but it is known that he went
away without money enough to support
himself for a week rather than take any
thing in addition to what was already
used.
The secretary's relatives say that they
would have made up the deficit if they had
been notified by the union before the facts
were made public, and they do not under
stand why the man should have diSap-
peared as he did.
A peculiar complication has grown out of
the case, by which it is probable that moth
ing can be obtained from the bondsmen.
Bonds were given sufficient to cover any
possible shortage in the secretary'S ac-
counts. They were deposited in the Ger
man Savings Bank for safe-keeping, but it
was ascertained yesterday that they had
been withdrawn, and nobody knows what
has since become of them.
The leading members of the union think
that they can discover the whereabouts OF
the missing man, as the organization is
strong in the eastern part of Canada and
the United States, and there is little doubt
that Van Guelpen will resume his trade Of
cigar-making in the best field possible.
Frank Westcott, the substitute ap-
pointed by Secretary Van Guelpen, is still
in charge of the work of the Office, and it
is understood that he will be candidate
for the office. The affairs of the union are
going on as usual, and the loss of the
funds will not be seriously felt.

Electric Lamps for Market Street.

A largely signed petition of Market
street property-owners and storekeepers
will be presented TO the Board of Super
visors at their next meeting. About a
year and half ago the proposition to SUBJ
stitute electric lights for gas lamps on
Market street was discussed by the Mer-
chants Association, and now the mer-
chants have agitated once more for better
lighting, fully expecting that success will
crown their efforts. The Merchants AS
ISOLATION at its meeting yesterday morning
adopted resolutions recommending to the
Board of Supervisors the substitution of
electric lights for gas lamps, and Mr..
Keil suggested that the lamps be erected
at intervals along the center of the street
and that around the base of each lamp a
small platform be constructed, upon which
foot-passengers could stand and be out of
the way OF passing vehicles.
Among those who heartily Endorsed this
proposition are Percy Beamish, j. Richard
Freud, w. e. Fisher, Senator George G.
Perkins, DR.. Nightingale, James D. Phelan
and many other large owners and store
keepers on Market street. There are al
ready upward of thousand names on the
petition, and the committee which has the
circulation of it in hand declares that a
proposition has never yet been presented
which met with such unanimous favor.

tary James Rose of the National Labor
Army at previous meeting and had been
referred to the organization committee.
The latter reported last night adversely
to the application, and the matter then
was placed before the body to act upon.
Among the champions. OF the Labor
Army were III. A. Knox of the American
Railway Union. President Mortlatt of the
Labor Army, who is also delegate to the
Labor Council from the American Rail-
way Union, and j. K. Phillips of the
Typographical Union. Those opposing
the proposition were Andrew Furuseth,
Thomas Finnerty and Messrs. Macarthur
and Rosenberg of the Sailors Union and
E. P. Burman of the Furniture-workers
Union.
The principal arguments presented by
the opponents OF the application were that
the National Labor Army was not bona
tide labor organization as prescribed by
the constitution of the Labor Council !;
that it was National and not a local
body, and by reason of the latter fact
would place the council in the position of
serving two masters, as it was already
affiliated with the American Federation
of Labor, a National organization.
On a vote the application was denied by
vote OF ayes and IL noes.
During the heat of the debate Delegate
Knox made q motion to withdraw the
application, but objection was made by
Delegate Mortlatt, who desired to have the
matter come to vote.
Before the great question of the evening
was taken up communication was read
from the Western Federation of Miners,
stating that a strike was on in the Cpur
d Alene region, and requesting that miners
be cautioned against going to that section
of the country. The matter was referred
to the executive committee, with instruc-
lions to take the necessary action to carry
out the wishesof the Federation of Miners.

Secretary Van Guelpen of the Cigar.

I'm Bank.


Makers Union Left Money
in Bank.
The story of the disappearance of George
w. Van Guelpen, secretary of the Cigar
makers International Union, caused a
sensation in trade circles when it was pub
lished in The CALL yesterday morning.
Mr.Van Guelpen is nown throughout the
State from his official work in the FEEDER
ated Trades, and especially in the cigar
makers organization, and nobody has
been more prominent in the local trades
councils.
All yesterday there were inquirers at the
cigar mems headquarters on Jessie street,
and a big crowd waited to see the safe
opened in the afternoon. President Burns
decided to have the safe forced open to
determine whether Van Guelpen had left
any of the money and to gain access to the
books, and the work was accomplished at
5 o'clock.
Only the books of the union were found
in the main compartment of the safe. In
the cash drawer, which was forced open
later, letter addressed byf Van Guelpen
to the union was found, but President
Burns declined to make the document
public, as he is confident that the secretary
will succeed in squaring up his accounts,
and he said he desired to submit the case
to the union before taking any other steps.
The substance of the letter was published
yesterday, however.
In the safe was found the handbook,
which had been left there by the secretary.
1t showed that $1165 of which Van Guelpen
had control had not been taken. This
convinced them more than ever of V an
Guelpen's honesty In the matter, and
many of the members of the union de-
clared that the mere deficit of $500 on ac-
count of the election failure would not
have made any trouble if the secretary

THE POLICE COMMISSION.
No Thought of Retiring Chief
Crowley and Captain
Lees.
Talks With Commissioners AlVord
and Gunst on the
Subject.

Expecting that the Supervisors would
decide to increase the number of police
men many friends and acquaintapces of
Commissioner Moses Gunst have impor-
tuned him for his influence in behalf OF
applicants for position on the force. Com
missioners Alvord and Tobin have not
been SO actively besieged by place-seekers,
yet they had many applications to con-
slider.
When Mr.. Gunst was appointed many of
his followers expected to be taken care of at
once. In this conjecture they were doomed
to disappointment.
Yesterday Mr.. Gunst said: 81 have not
made any appointments yet, but l voted
Tor promotions, of course. When / went
East left with Chief Crowley twelve rec
concentrations for appointments in the
event OF the force being increased. I gave
to Markham one, to Estee one, to D. M.
Burns one, to the Germans one, to the
Jews one, to the Irish one, to the French
one, to the Board of Trade one, to the
Chamber OF Commerce one and to the Ma
tive Sons three. / favored the Native Sons
because they have had experience and edu-
cation in California. Had the seventy-five
additional appointments been authorized
fifty-four of the new men would have been
Native Sons"
Mr.. Gunst was asked: when do You ex-
pect to reach Chief Crowley and Captain
Lees in the routine of retIrement2"
The Commissioner replied: Chief Crow
ley is one of the best men in the United
States. People of San Francisco do not
understand his value. You must go East
and talk with the police in other cities to
ascertain his high standing. In the first
place, Crowley possesses the first and
greatest qualification. Hell honest-thor-
oughly honest and capable. Now that he
is REINFORCED by young and alert captains,
who can tell him what is going on, the
