The RAYMOND Hotel

A morning contemporary had a very
misleading item yesterday about the re-
building of the burned Raymond hotel. It
is learned from the very highest authority
that there is not the slightest talk on the
part of the Southern Pacific company about
taking hold of the mattar. Indeed. they
are selling hotels rather than starting
more. These rumors have been persistent,
but have been made out of whole cloth.
There has never been he smallest founda-
ton for the reports.
Another incorrect statement was coupled
with the one above. 1t was stated that the
land occupied by the destroyed building
had reverted to the Raymond Improve
ment company, under terms of the deed.
This is not true. There were 10 condi-
tons in the deed, and Mr.. Walter Ray
mond is now the sole owner of the property,
without conditions. He may rebuild some
day, when money can be had at favor
able rate of interest, and not before. Mean
time no other persons are even talking
about taking hold of the hotel proposition.

SYRACUSE CYCLE COMPANY

D. q. Shafer of the Racing Team Writes q
Letter
A communication has been received by
The HERALD, written by d. G.. Shafer,
manager of the Syracuse Cycle company's
racing team. 1t is not the intention of this
paper to do any man, or any set of men,
an injustice knowingly. Mr. Shafer's let
ter, which is dated Coronado, January
18th, is as follows:
EDITOR HERALD: Upon my return from
the north my attention was called to an
article in THE HERALD of January 18th, in
which sporting quill-driver affirmed that
the real object of my trip was to secure the
San Jose bicycle track, and proceeds to at
tempt to throw doubt upon the accuracy
of the survey of the Coronado track. This
is but one of a series of attacks upon me,
and while feel averse to rushing into print
upon this subject, l would not feel that
was doing my duty to my employers, who
are spending thousands of dollars in Cali
fornia, did l not deny the statement of
man whose every article has borne the i'm
preston, not of an impartial writer, but of
a paid press agent. This conclusion is not
formed simply by the article referred to,
but in almost every article that has erna-
mated from his pen he has attempted to
boom the Stearns racing team and to be-
little the work OF the Syracuse racing team
Now if this gentleman is the paid press
agent of these people, why does he not
come out like n man and sign his articles
as such, and not, under the mask of an
impartial writer, attempt to throw discredit
upon our records, and if records made
upon a horse track are SO unreliable. why
did the ''aspiring manager" of the Stearns
team make every effort possible to secure
the Coronado track? lie also made over
lures, l discovered while in San Jose, for
the use OF the horse track at that place.
l am perfectly satisfied with the Coro-
nado track and think that results will show
that have secured the best horse track in
the state for my trials, an opinion evil
IDENTIFY shared by the 'aspiring manager"
of the team at Santa Monica, for even he
of late has been using the wires to secure
the use of the Coronado track. Now as the
"aspiring manager" has announced
through the press that he is perfectly satis-
fled with the Santa Monica track, let him
stand to his guns, and let the results show
which team has the best track and the best
men. With regard to the survey, the best
surveyor in this part of the country was
secured for the work, and his certificate of
survey is now in the hands of the racing
board, and as Judgment is to be passed by
them and not by anyone else, I am per-
fectly willing to abide by the results.

The Police Court

Pierre Paul, an old French vagrant who
has been in the police court number of
times, was yesterday sent to the chaingang

the habit of hanging around the depots and
begging incoming passengers for the con-
tents of their lunch baskets.
Dan Carlisle, another vag, was sent down
for sixty days, and L. Evans, who also
belongs to thu Weary Waggles brigade, got
ten days.
Six drunks received fines ranging from
SO to So, but Mike Kennedy was mulcted
in $40 and Jack Kennedy in the sum of
$50, because they show up too often before
the police judge.
Basilio Salas, Mexican petit larcsnist
who swoops down on unprotected carpenter
tools and garden hose whenever conve-
nient, was convicted and will be sentenced
today by Justice Owens.

In this same connection the following
from the San Francisco Examiner of
Thursday, in reference to the Sacramento
case now before the supreme court, brief
reference to which has been made in the
telegraphic columns, is of general in
terest:
The supreme court was called upon
yesterday afternoon to set a day on which
to hear arguments as to the legality OF
the primary election law passed by the
last legislature. This law makes its pro-
visions obligatory in counties of the second
class, but not compulsory in other counties
of the state. Not single board of super
visors in the state has taken any steps to
carry out the provisions of the law, and if
they do not act Immediately, it is main
tanned by the promoters OF the new stat
ute, that great complications will ensue in
the coming elections, one complication, for
dates may be printed on the official
ballots.
AT the request of counsel the supreme
court set next Monday when argument
would be heard.
The subject was brought before the court
by the application of w. A. Gett, jr., as a
citizen and taxpayer of Sacramento county
"a county not of the first or second clasa),
for a writ of mandate directed against the
board of supervisors of that county, direct
ing the supervisors to select the names OF
thirty residents of each voting precinct.
equally divided among the different politi
cal parties, and place such names In sealed
envelopes. From these names are to be
selected the officers of primary elections.
Gett says i'll his application that he re-
quested the board to do this on the 9TH of
this month, and it refused.
Delegates to the state convention must
be chosen on the second Tuesday in March,
and delegates to the convention which are
to nominate candidates for all elective
offices are to be elected on the second
Tuesday in July.
Gett points out that, under the law, un-
less delegates to these conventions be
chosen at the primaries presided over by
citizens selected in each voting precinct.
according to the new law, then no candi-
date of such convention may have his name
printed on the official ballot. The names
must be selected by the board of supervis-
ors in each county in January.
This necessity for an immediate decision
is urged by Gett as his reason for applying
directly to the supreme court, as. if he
should apply to the superior court and an
appeal be taken, much time would be con-
sumed and no decision could be reached in
time to give the people the benefit of the
new law. AS it is the court will have only
eleven days to hear arguments and reach
decision.
An alternate writ, made returnable on
Monday, was issued, directing the super
visors to show cause why they have not
obeyed the law

took under advisement the application of
E. E. Peck for special franchise for cleo
trio lighting in the business section of the

lege must comply with the terms of their

Skips Out
Heug Kay Kan is a willy heathen Chinese
who with nine partners from the Flowery
Kingdom ran vegetable garden on the
Laguna ranch until yesterday noon. Then
Heng Kay Kan disappeared, and with him
went $500 of the partnership money. The
rent for their place was payable yesterday
to the Baker estate, and Heng Kay Kan
was deputed to pay it. He went to the
Chinese merchants who acted as bankers
for the partners and drew out all the mon
ey belonging to them, which was $3.50.
Then he returned to tile ranch and ex-
planned that it was not enough, and 500
more was produced. Then Heng Kay Kan
returned to town with one or two of the
partners, but he managed to give them the
slip and took the afternoon train for San
Francisco.
After hunting high and low for the treas
urer of the vegetable ranch, the other Chi
namen came to the conclusion that he had
abscoaded. 1t was late in the afternoon
when they advised Chief Glass of their loss.
He Immediately telegraphed to Mojave to
have the festive Heng Kay Kan arrested.
The Chinaman is 40 years old, six feet
high and the fingers of his right hand are
somewhat crooked.
