The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1895-03-14


was the making OF an appropriation to estab-
lish forestry station on Mount Hamilton, in
this county.-Mountain View Register.
The publication of railroad timetables by the
CALL Is a good stroke of policy. Although it is
published without price good returns will come
from it by additional sales of the paper.-Berke
ley Gazette.
new hazing fraternity has been organizing
at the State University. If the faculty would
adopt the policy of publicly hazing the hazers
this barbarous sport would soon be eliminated
from college life.-San Jose Mercury.
Mrs. Dominis has been found guilty, and she
will probably be presented with q ticket fol
America. If she comes, we ask, after she has
taken good look at California, that she &c
straight to Cleveland.-Santa Cruz Sentinel.
An item in yesterdays CALL contains whole
lesson in itself. 1t is as follows: when you
help your neighbours business you put him in
position to help yours" Every man in Gall
should paste this item in his hat, study it over
carefully and profit by it.-Galt Gazette.
San Franciscans desire to tax by high license
the quiet innocent flower-sellers that ply their
vacations on the corners. Who says that San
Francisco does not possess statesmen? Kick
the fower-girl into the bay, but let the octopus
ride you to death.-Porterville Enterprise.
The rumor that the proposed change in the
timetable, so that the afternoon train will
leave Sacramento half an hour later, is to en-
able San Francisco members of the Legislature
to reach home after night, when the Legisla-
ture adjourns, lacks confirmation and is prob.
ably untrue.-Woodland Democrat.
MERGED may get two roads out of the Compel
ing San Joaquin Valley proposition. Of course
the line south from Stockton will touch Mer-
ced, and many believe that if branch line
should be built through the Santa Clara Valley
and Pacheco Pass into the San Joaquin Valley
it would come direct to MERGED from Pacheco
Pass.-Merced Sun.
Talk up your town. Don't run it down. II
you do not like it leave it, but don't stay here
and abuse it. AS long as you choose to reside
here you are component part of the place,
and are very foolish to seek your own dispar-
agement. Talk up your town, write and speak
in its praise and show yourself worthy of your
home and your friends.-Marysville Appeal.
An editorial paragraph in the CALL contains
q whole lesson in itself. 1t is as follows;
''When you help your neighbours business you
put him in a position to help yours" The
Telegraph says every one in Grass Valley should
clip this out and place it in his hat, study
and profit by it. Every business man in
Truckee would do well by doing likewise

Adventuresome young men who want to GO
on polar expedition at small expense can
strike out for the Western Kansas prairies and
wrestle with the billiards. True, they will not
find the north pole, but polar expeditions
never do that They can get out of sight OF
human habitations, and freeze and starve, and
thus have the same sort of fun they would en-.
JOY in the Arctic regions.-Alameda Telegram
The present Legislature has been reckless
with the taxpayers money, and the appropria-
tons already provided for far exceed those OF
former years. Governor Budd has it in his
power to give the people relief, as the law pro.
vides he can approve or reject any part of an
appropriation bill, and it is hoped he may use
his power discreetly when the appropriation
bills come before him for consideration
Bakersfield Democrat.
Manufacturers of pickles in California put
foreign labels on the bottles "to make them
SELL" They say the pickles would not find q
ready market at home if they were sold for
what they are. The manufacturers probably
speak from experience, for they would not be
likely to discredit their own wares without
strong reasons. 1t is no wonder, therefore
that California prunes are sold at home as
French, and the olives as Spanish, when the
consumers pay 200 per cent profit to those who
TOOL them Ii Californians would prefer Cali
fornia products they would save money and
enable home producers to make money The
preference Tor foreign products offers a
premium on dishonesty and retards home
progress.-Stockton Independent.
