ANNOUNCEMENTS
SUNDAY. SEPTEMBER I, 1905
ABOLISH ALL PETTY BRIBERY

1t canro. be said OF the resolution
adopted recently by the fire commission
ers, anent the giving of pecuniary testi-
monials to superior officers by members
os tho department, that it is good as far
as 1t goes. The resolution is all right,
with the one exception that it goes too
far. There is probably no joker concealed
In the phrase without first obtaining
the consent ana approval of the board OF
fire commissioners, but if the proviso
can have any meaning or use, 1t will be
simply to defeat the aims of the order
ITSELF.
There can be no question about the rule
being good ono, and one also that
should be extended to eve ry branch of the
city and county cover nments. The
spectacle of the head dep uti es of depart
ments passing around the hat for SUBJ
scriptions for testimonial" for the
Chief is a particularly revolving one.
The application to a clerk or subordinate
in such q case amounts to an absolute de-
mand. On the part of the mover OF the
scneme it is simply bribery. His object
is to make himself more solid with the
head of the department and those under
him are perforce afraid to provoke an
argument by refusing to contribute.
This is perhaps an inelegant statement
OF the proposition, but its badness is
only on par with its accuracy.
What the idea of the commissioners
was in allowing any loophole for the
evasion of the spirit of this rule against
such schemes for petty bribery is noe
is bor rI ta
case or possible comtina ton of circum-
stances that woulo justify the fire board
in giving its consent to enforcement of
levy lit is Just as well to state it truth
fully) upon the subordinate members of
the department as testimonial of re-
spect and esteem (?) for superior Off
Ger. All the employees Of the city, from
mayor to ianitors. are paid by the city to
do their full duty, and there the matter
should end.
II the members say, for instance, of the
police department should wish to extend
the courtesy of testimonial to Chief
Glass upon his retirement from the head
of the municipal constabulary. it would
be very different matter. In such a
case the gracious expression would be
teStlHouldl ior pdst dCts, anu uOt u prlD6
for future favors. In such a case, also,
the rule would not be violated. 1t is,
perhaps. hardly supposittiious case, but
it illustrates the idea.
The action of the chief Of the fire de-
partment in bringing this matter forward
and enabling the commissioners to forbid
it in the future is commendabls to de-
gree. Now, let the rule be extended to
all the city departments and maze it
absolute.

THAT WAR CLOUD WHICH NEVER BURSTS

During the last twenty-five years the
leading political writers of Europe and
America have periodically discovered the
tabled icloud mo bigger .than mans
hand" whose shadow would involve the
older continent IN war. This war cloud
has always proved, on closer inspection,
to be but the very thinnest mist, through
which the benign countenance of peace
could shine without casting the fain test
suspicion of shadow. Among the events
which, according to one or another of
these accepted authorities, would be sure
to precipitate war in Europe may be
mentioned a cabinet crisis in France,
which would be almost sure to open the
old Alsace- Lorraine sore and lead to SER
ious com plications with Germany; the
accession of Wilhelm to the throne of
Prussia, to be followed by the depos tion
of Bismarck from the chancelorship of
the German empire, and by the exercise
OF the full scope of the youthful mon
arch's warlike am btion the death of the
late czar of Russia, which would place his
supposedly weak minded son at the head
of the Muscovite government, to be made
the tool of the astuts Pan-Slavist diplo-
mats in their effort for the extension of
Russian authority in both Europe and
Asia; the elevation of the prince of Wales
to the nominal head of the British gov
srnment; and lastly, and with more to
recommend it than any Of the other the :
prizes. the demise of Franz Josef OF A u.s.
iria. ANY one of these events, ano innus
merable lesser possibilities, would aim ost
inevitably lead to such political mpli-
cations as would necossitate a resort to
arms.
OF all these possible happenings only
two are yet IN the future-Albert Edward
is still the prince of Wales, and Austria
has the same ruler. There have been
crises in the French cabinet. the Panama
canal scandal offered its opportunities TO.
royalist plots. and President Carnot wa 8
assassinated and his successor elected-all
without martial demonstrations The
new German emperor has had his own
way in everything, from the deposition of
Prince Bismarck to the capricous wag-
ging OF an unbridled tongue. The young
czar OF Russia has done nothing more
startling than to take unto hims elf a
wife and buy cradle. There has been
. war in the orient. and Its only effect
upon the politics of Europe appears to
have nean little intrigue to keep japan
off the mainland of Asia. All these
dread things, and many others Of like
import, have come to pass, and still
peace reigns.
1t cannot be argued from this that the
era of universal peace is about 60 dawn.

The triumph of Senator Quay in Penn
sylvania falls like unto a wet blanket
upon the aspirations of the Hon. Benja-
min Harrison. Quay will now have an
opportunity to square accounts with
Harrison for snubs received while the
latter occupied the presidential chair.
Matt Quay is not the man to forget such
treatment as he received at Harrison s
hands, and it may be set down as fore
gone conclusion that when the call OF
delegates is made in the Republi can
presidential convention, the name of Ben
Harrison, like that OF Ben Adhem. will
lead all the rest, but from the bottom.

A novel plan, and one which seems
strange to a Californian. has been adopted
by the weather bureau for giving warning
of sudden changes in temperature on the
Atlantic seaboaid. A system of rocket
signaling has been devised for use at
night. This is not only intended to warn
shipmasters. but also to notify farmers OF
the sudden approach OF cold waves. AS
an example of probable benefits from the
system the chief of the weather bureau
says that ''orange growers in Florida
could receive notice OF an approaching
cold wave and protect their trees from
injury by bonfres.'

Enterprise of the Ancient Expres,

Evening Express: We have no desire
to wrest any laurels from the brow of our
esteemed, contemporary, Christopher Co.
lumbus, but it is not easy to see why he
is claiming as "a Victory for Columb bus"
the determination of the discovery of
America. 1t is true that Christopher of
late has been doing quite good deal of
fussy talking about it; but. if we mis-
take not. the Express was the first paper
to editorially advocate the entire discov-
cry OF this continent. 1t has not yet been
entirely done, however, and the Express
will not throw up its hat until 1t is. But
II Columbus wishes to yell, upon second
thought. we withdraw all objection.

THE HOW LAND CASE

The northern papers are still devoting
considerable space to the "Rev. !"
Henry E. Rowland, who is now serving
a two-years' sentence in San Quentin.
Said space might be devoted to better
cause. HowlAnd's case has been fully ex-
planned end would not be again men,
toned were it not that the .,orthern edi-
tors accuse US of evading the points at
issue. Therefore, for their edfication a
few things pertinent to the cass will pe
mere explained. AS we are accused of
discussing Mr.. Howland's character
rather than the cause of his conviction.
we will this time forget to mention that
he has disrupted family by his giddy
ways; that be has been accused of shady
transactions; that he swore on the wit
ness stand that his wife was dead that,
as matter of fact. he deserted her; that
he left her In destitute circumstances
that he claimed certain young man,
when in the county jail he was accused
by fellow prisoners of an unspeakable
nastiness, the nature of which was re-
voting to even Grim inals-all these and
many other little things of more or less
importance we will brush aside ana
forget TO mention.

''There Is prisoner in San Quentin

| ence of Governor Budd. His name is
Henry E. Rowland, and he is a minister

Who Set The Flre7
PowNAL STIRRED UP by ANOTHER At
TEMPTED INCENDIARIsM,

TEMPTED INCENDIARIsM.
Once more Pownal has had another
narrow escape from serious fire. At
1890 Tuesday morning smoke was seen
issuing from the south end of the tene-
ment occupied by John Sampson and
Edward Rhodes and owned by Mr.. Bates.
The family who occupy this part of the
house, the Simpsons, were away and so
everything was tightly locked up. One
of the children ran across the street and
informed D. T. Bates that the house was
on fire, but instead of going at once he
waited until he saw the smoke himself
as he thought itwas flake" fire, there
having been several fires of this kind
lately. On seeing the smoke he hurried
ly went over and as there was no way of
opening the door, smashed it in. He
quickly realized by the heat under his
feet that the fire was in the cellar and
lost no time in getting there with water.
The cellar was filled with smoke and the
flames were already getting foothold
on the wood. Looking to the top of the
cellar wall and under the floor, he found
a bag filled with rags that had been sat
urated with kerosene which was the
cause of the fire.
Mr.. Bates easily extinguished the
flames. Then an investigation revealed
these facts. The house was double
one and some one had torn off a parti
ton between the two cellars and entered
from the other side. In a nearby els
tern was found vinegar cruise that had
had kerosene in it, a part of a cast set
that matched another piece belonging to
the tenants in the other side of the
house.
Now who set the fire is the question.
The Sampson and Rhodes families have
been on bad terms. Circumstantial evil
dence would strongly point to the con-
clusion that none of the Rhodes family
started the fire, and on the other hand
Mrs. Simpson charges the Rhodes peo-
pie with doing it.
One thing is certain-rags soaked in
kerosene don't get tucked up in cellar
under the floor above. without some
help from somewhere, and this case
ought to be thoroughly investigat-
ed,-Transcript
