whole. Hence it is that in the scheme OF
the order there is no plan for direct at
tack upon any line of action, the general
organization being maintained principally
as bond of union and for the promotion
of sociability.
But it is pleasing to observe that the
members who were interviewed regard
the suggestion favorably, and clearly see
in it a plan for bringing the patriotic EN-
cheney of the order to its highest develop
ment 1t must be clear to them, as II IS to
us, that the organized efforts of the mem
bers would be immeasurably more effective
than their individual work; and further,
that such organized work would be only a
logical development and extension OF the
obligations which the members have indl-
vidually assumed.
The prevailing impression of those who
were interviewed is that the subject is TOO
new and important to be brought up be-
fore the present annual convention OF the
order, that the proposed departure from
esta blished usage is too radical for lmme-
date action, and that in any event the IN
dividual parlors must take action before
the central body will have the power to
that the Calls suggestion will readily
commend itself to the attention OF the par
lors, that out of the discussion which VIII
arise some general plan OF action VIII De
evolved, and that the Grand Parlor Will be
invested with authority TO take the neces-
sary action to secure the working harmony
of the order as a whole. Hence not until
the next annual convention, year hence,
can the Native Sons as an organized body
be expected TO take action in this very i'm
portant matter.
With regard TO political affairs, Grand
President Sproul has made some conspIcu-
ouslv commendable observations. He
thinks, for instance, that while the order
cannot enter into politics in the ordinary
sense, its members can properly bind them
selves 10 two obligations-one to work for
the election of those candidates, without
regard 10 party, who represent California
patriotism in its highest form, and the
other to prevent the reelection OF any Ma
tive Son who may have proved recreant IN
office. This covers generous ground, and
such a stand would be manly, patriotic
and beneficial.
The interviews, therefore, are most en-
couraging, and are altogether what we ex-
pected from this splendid body of young
men. It is well that there is a year in
which the great work OF formulating plan
for the material development Of the State
can be accomplished, for that much time
Is needed in which the wisest scheme may
be devised. Let US hope not only that all
Native Sons will at once apply their ener-
gies to the solution of this great problem,
but that they will do all that is possible to
enlarge their power by increasing the men,
bership of their order. These young men
the flower OF California-have the making
OF the State in their hands.

VIII Review the Com

The League of the Cross Cadets are put
ting in some hard work these days in
preparation for the competitive drill at the
Mechanics Pavilion on the evening of
May 3. There will also be a concert by
the Preside band. Following the concert
there viii be review of ten full uniformed
companies Colonel Sullivan and the stats
of the First and Third regiments, n. G. c.,
viii officiate at the review.
There will be a saber drill by Company
A, an individual competitive drill and a
competitive drill by all the companies.
The cadets are very efficient in all the
movements and the keenest interest is
being taken by the different companies in
the competition. They present hand
some appearance in their blue-black uni
forms. The result OF their training is
shown in their manly bearing.
The officers and soldiers of the Preside
are expected to be present. In fact all the
military men of the city together with the
Boys Brigade have been invited From
the deep interest the friends and families
of the boys are taking in the exercises it is
certain that there will be large gathering
at the competitive drill.

THE BALL TO COME DOWN,
MIR. Sutro Wants Uncle Sam
to Pay Rent for Tele-
graph Hill.
The Government TooHPoor to Pay
for Operating Time
Signal.

The time ball on the top Of Telegraph
Hill, which has been going up and down
for the last ten years, will come down for
good unless the Government pays the rent
inside OF thirty days.
The property is owned by Gustav Sutro,
and for the ten years for which the ball
has been operated for Uncle Sam it has
been going up and down at Mr.. Sutro's
expense. Now, the proprietor of the hill
wants to know why Uncle Sam cannot pay
for the location of the ball, and so he
asked the branch photographers Office
some time ago.
The result OF the query was CORE
spondence between Lieutenant Fechteler
and the department in Washington, but
very little satisfaction was derived from
Captain Bigsbee, the photographer. That
gentleman said the department was not in
a position to pay rent and called attention
to the fact that rent was not paid in any
other city in the Union. In Savannah,
Georgia, he said the cotton exchanges
gave the department all the necessary con-
venienees, In Chicago the Masonic Tenn
pie has erected ball at It's own expense e
a cost OF S1400 and in Cleveland the city
put up a ball also at an expense Of from
800 to $500.
Captain Bigsbee also called attention to
the fact that the ball was not established
for the benefit of the Government, but Tor
Il at OF the community, and limited that If
any rent was to be paid, the beneficiary
might find it consistent TO foot the bills.
Mr.. Sutro fails to see where he is bene-
flied, and thinks that he should be as
sisted in paying taxes and other incidental
expenses for maintaining the house on
Telegraph Hill. He argues that in view
OF having supplied the Government with
a station for the past ten years, the
Government should now pay him rental
OF $50 month, and yesterday he gave no
tice to Lieutenant Fechteler that if the
rent were not forthcoming in thirty days,
the ball would have to slide up and down
some other poll than that on Telegraph
Hill. Unless the city comes to the assist
ance of the United States, the ball will
have to come down, for no appropriations
has been made for such an emergency as
paying rent. The ball is mostly benefciaIl
to ship captains in port for rating their

THE EVIL OF NEGLIGENCE.

Recognizing the fact that in the case OF
public construction there is not the direct
moral restraint which private builder ex-
ercises over his employees, honest political
governing bodies select for the work men
whom they lave every reason to trust.
The men so selected are expected to be as
diligent and faithful as if the presence of
the builder were at hand to observe their
conduct. 1t is out of the failure of such
men to be diigent, or through their in
clination to be corrupt, that all the numer-
Gus scandals arise over public construc-
ton. Sometimes it is difficult to disting-
uish between negligence and knavery, and
it is equally difficult to say which is worse.
In the case of the ferry construction, we
are having a repetition of the shameful
scandals that arose out of the construction
Of the City Hall. 1t has not yet been
proved that the contractors violated the
specifications and attempted to swindle the
State by employing inferior material, but
the suspicion that they have is so prevalent
that extensive machinery has been set in
motion TO discover the truth. While the
Harbor Commissioners are having compe-
tent scientists from the State University
make such physical examination Of the
foundations as is possible, the Grand Jury
is making an inquiry along other lines,
and the indications do not breed a cheering
hope that the work may have been
honestly done, and that it would be safe
to proceed with the erection of the build
ing.
The discovery that men, in order TO be
diligent or honest, will be so only under
the presence OF fear, is exceedingly dis
couraging. When the ferry foundations
were begun and it was announced that
a. Page Brown would be the architect
there was not the slightest apprehension.
The improvement was urgently needed.
Nothing like negligence, Tascality, delay
or danger was dreamt of. 1t entered no
ones mind to reflect that weak foundatio :
might be constructed, and that HUNDREDS
OF human lives might be lost in frishtful
collapse of the structure. The minds OF
men do not voluntarily suspect that there
are persons walking abroad among them,
with all the semblance of a well-rounded
manhood, who are capable, through negli-
gence or dupicity, of deliberately setting
mine in the springing OF which men,
women and children would be slaughtered
wholesale and pitileSsly. Until the popu-
lar sentiment which establishes the meas
IRE OF accountability to which such men
should be held is reformed, the punishment
OF minor crimes is a farce.
In spite of the fact that the architect has
not proved that he attended diligently TO
his duties, and that the presumption OF
improperly constructed foundations IS
strong, We sincerely hope that the work
viii be found done according to contract,
and safe for a superstructure, and that the
expense, shame, delay of condemning the
work and doing it all over again viii be
avoided. But if the investigations now
afoot should discover negligence and crook
edness, every good citizen hopes that the
guilty ones viii receive the very heaviest
blow that the laK can deliver

THE NATIVE SONS ALERT.

Following up the suggestion which it
made on Wednesday, to the effect that the
Native Sons of the Golden West, working
as body, would be a powerful force in the
development of the State, the CALL has
secured, and presents in this issue, num-
Der of interviews with leading members of
the order. These are very instructive, and
should be pondered by every member of
the organization.
Naturally the CALLS suggestion appeared
to the Native Sons in the light of novelty.
While every member of the order is
pledged to a patriotic cherishing of the
best interests of the State, it seems to have
been taken for granted that this praise
worthy course should be pursued by the
members in their individual capacity of
citizens only, and not by means of definite
purposes pursued by the organization as q
