A COMING INNOVATION.

According to q recent report, several
types of horseless carriages, propelled by
different kinds of power, have been con-
structed in France and have proven so val
liable in active use they are becoming the
rage of the day in Paris. These vehicles
are said to be swift, noiseless, convenient
and economical. They have every advan-
tage over carriage drawn by horses that
a bicycle has over saddle horse, and the
prediction is made that in comparatively
few years the carriage horse will be almost
unknown in countries where there are good
roads.
For the use of carriages of this kind
smooth, well-paved and well-kept roads
are essential. We cannot look for the use
of this economy in America therefore until
we have had extensive road improvement,
though there are of course some sections of
California where they could be used to adj
vantage now. Horses are so cheap with
us, however, that there will be little incli-
nation to abandon their use solely on the
grounds of economy There is a pleasure
and qualification to be derived from driv-
ing or riding good horse that men will
not willingly give up for the sake of a
cheap machine; and as this pleasure is
held in high esteem in all parts of America
our people are not likely to look with favor
on the horseless carriage even in localities
where we have good roads.
1t is certain, however, that sooner or
later economy will haveits way. Men who
do not adopt it will be crowded out in the
struggle for existence. Ii steam, electricity
or compressed air can drive wagon over
good road without rails, at a cheaper rate
than horses, the people who do not adopt
it will be at disadvantage in competing
with their neighbors and will have to
abandon the contest. 1t would appear
therefore that the carriage horse will
eventually be a mere article of luxury
kept by the rich for amusement rather
than use. 1t is some satisfaction to know
that the innovation cannot be made in
California until we have roads as good as
those in France. That fact not only post
pones the evil to distant time but assures
US of compensation when it comes.

AROUND THE CORRIDORS.

Several of the Half-million Club excursion
lists were speaking of their trip and Colonel
Mark Mcdonald of Santa Rosa was mentioned
"That reminds me of Marks trip to Fresno
during that boom they had down south several
years ago." said Will Ashe of MERGED. "Mark
went down to Fresno to look around and see if
it was worth while taking ride on the wave
of prosperity. The first day he was there Full
ton Berry of the Grand Central Hotel drove the
colonel about to the principal places in the
neighborhood and was entertaining him roy
ally. In the evening, just as they were finish
ing as fine dinner as the hotel could PROVIDE,
music was heard outside. They are serenad-
ing you, colonel, said Berry. They would like
to hear few words from you, am sure. Come
along and 1 will introduce YOU
"Arm in arm they marched upstairs and out
on the hotel balcony, Mark, the while, think
ing of some good things to say of the people
and of the climate of Fresno, but there, in
stead of the town band and enthusiastic ad-
mirers of the distinguished visitor, was the
Salvation Army. Mark went home to Santa
Rosa the next day to wait for the boom to get
I'D that Way."

CLARA FoLTz IN SALT LAKE.

During recent visit to Salt Lake City on her
way to Boston, Mrs Clara Shortridge Foltz was
an interested visitor at the Utah Constltu-
uonal Convention. The Salt Lake Herald pup
lished an interview with Mrs. Foltz under the
heading of "The Modern Portia," in which
she expressed her views on the convention
and on equal suffrage as follows:
II enjoyed my visit to the convention this
morning. There are some very bright men
and some orators in that body. AT the time OF
my visit they were discussing the question OF
allowing women to vote on the adoption OF the
constitution. My opinion, as a law-glVer,
was asked, and I felt constrained to
say that l do not consider such
course legal. While l want to see
my sex in the enjoyment OF all It's
rights and privileges and the sooner the better
the woman and the lawyer do not always
agree, and in the latter capacity would say
that permitting the women of this Territory to
vote on the adoption of the constitution would
De as reasonable as permitting the convicts IN
yonder penitentiary to decide by their vote
whether or not they should have their liberty.
"We are hopeful of q triumph for the cause OF
equal suffrage in California when the question
Is submitted two years hence. Lack OF money
or lack of workers is all we need fear
al have great faith in and great admiration
for the new woman Hers is strong per-
sonality, instinct with the progressive spirit,
and never looking back upon the plumbers
and tragedies of the past The new woman
will be a comrade to her husband.
Nine-tenths of the women are not their
husbands comrades. If they were, do
mestic infelicities would be conspicuous by
their absence. The new woman crowned
with the honors of citizenship is grand SYM
bolc figure ushering in better day for the
world. She will never be a mother OF cr1m1-
mails or inbeciles, the new woman L
have often thought that If the pris-
ons, the almshouses, the asylums for the in
sane and homes for the feeble-minded, could
be thrown open and their inmates be seen In
mournful procession, what an indictment that
would be against the old womani And what
would she plead in answer to that awful
charge?
eyes, am hopeful of universal suffrage and
that before the most ardent expect it to be an
accomplished fact. I think, however, that
women should talk less about their rights and
more about their duties. Every woman should
be deeply interested in the affairs of the NUM-
cipality, which is really great household. She
should be perfectly familiar with the needs OF
that household and should bring her intelli-
gence to bear upon a solution of its problems"

THE FERRY FOUNDATIONS.

If the rumors which have come from the
Grand Jury room are reliable, the case of
the ferry foundations stands thus: The
experts from the State University have
testified that although the cement used
was the kind called for in the specifications,
it was not as thoroughly mixed with the
crushed rock in the making of the con-
crete as it should have been, but that as
provision was made for a bearing strain
greatly in excess of that to be imposed by
the superstructure, the foundations as con-
structed are much more than sufficiently
strong to support the building, and hence
are safe.
This is good news, if true. The matter
of adjusting the compensation of those
concerned with the construction of the
foundations, so as to make it conform with
their deserts, is one with which the Harbor
Commission has to deal. The rumors in
dictate that there has been no conflict with
the penal laws, and hence that no indict-
ments will be returned. Until formal
report shall have been made, however,
both by the Grand Jury and the experts
appointed by the Harbor Commission,
there will be no clear understanding of the
situation.
The stirring up the matter will not have
been in vain if it shall serve to warn all
those charged with public construction
that the old days of laxity and swindling
are at an end in San Francisco. This will
serve as warning to contractors, archi-
tects, superintendent of construction and

A GOOD TEXT.

In an interview with member of the
CALL staff at the Palace on Wednesday,
w. c. Patterson, president of the Los
Angeles Chamber of Commerce, said
"Our trip from Los Angeles was most in
teresting and l am sure will be productive
of much good. The text from which l
would preach is that we should have more
of these intersectional iaunts. The COM
mingling of the people from the various
portions of the State would be most bene-
fetal. We would come to know each other
better and be more likely to cooperate in
the promotion of the welfare of the State
at large"
Mr.. Patterson could not have selected O
text in which the people are more inter-
ested than the one he has chosen. A bet
ter understanding throughout the State of
the merits and diverse advantages of all
sections, together with a cordial co-opera-
ton on all sides to promote the general
welfare, is just now the dominant aspira-
ton of all patriotic and progressive Cali
fornians. Nor can it be doubted that ex-
cursions similar to the one undertaken by
the Half-million Club will help to bring
this about When such an excursion ar
riyes in any community the people there
take an interest in it. They furnish its
members with information on all sorts of
industrial subjects, and in this way the
excursionists acquire, along with their
pleasure, large amount of knowledge of
practical value to their own localities.
What Mr.. Patterson and his associates
will learn from their visit to San Francisco
is for them to tell when they go home.
What our people have learned from Los
Angeles is easily stated. That city stands
as a proof of what well-directed energy,
sagacious enterprise and thorough-going
cooperation among men can do to trans
form a small town into great city, even
though it have no extraordinary natural
advantages. The San Francisco Chamber
of Commerce could largely increase its use
fulness by undertaking with an equal vigor
some of the work done by the Los Angeles
Chamber. 1t could materially assist in adj
vertising not San Francisco only, but all the
rich region round about, and in this way
could most effectively build up the City by
building up the country tributary to it.
1t is in the highest degree creditable to
Los Angeles that her leaders and her press
have never forgotten the duty of metropo-
lis to the country from which it draws it's
exports and upon which it relies for Gus
toners. She has never failed to advertise
the counties back of her as often as she adj
vertised herself. Her papers have never
hesitated to give the small towns of the
south the benefit of abundant notices in
their columns whenever they have shown
any enterprise or desire for advancement.
The Chamber of Commerce of the city has
been as eager to promote immigration to
any portion of Southern California as to the
city itself. This is the lesson which San
Francisco can learn of Los Angeles. The
CALL proposes to do its share of the work
of advancing the welfare of the interior,
and having already begun it, is justified
therefore in calling upon the other forces
of the metropolis to do likewise.
