AGAINST ANY REFUHD|NG.
The American Railway Union
Exploits Anti.Railroad
Resolutions.
A Strong Demand That Congress Do
Not Pass the Bill-The Other
Trades Unions.

Since the late railroad strike the mem
bers of the American Railway Union in
this City and Oakland have been keeping
quiet, because they saw that there was
nothing to be gained by making them
selves conspicuous. Many have thereby
been misled into believing that the de-
feated union was crushed and dead Such
is not the case. for according to the mem
bership rolls there are more A. R. U. men
than there were before. However, as
many of those who were barred from serv-
ing the railroad have found other posi-
tions they do not attend every meeting OF
the unions.
Local Union No. 345 frequently holds
lively meetings, and those who have been
blackiisted by the railroad express them
selves freely upon all subjects pertaining
to the railroads in general and the Central
and Southern Pacific in particular. Such
a meeting was held last evening when,
after number of vigorous speeches upon
the fundlng-bill proposition. the following
outspoken resolutions were passed:
WHEREAS, The industrial and producing
classes of the State of California and the black.
listed members of the American Railway Union
are now engaged In death struggle with a
gigantic, thieving. blood-sucking railroad mo-
nopoly in order to break the chains they have
bound us in for the last quarter of a century;
and whereas, the passage of a railroad funding
bill by Congress will but more than firmly
| rivet the bonds upon an impoverished and al
most helpless people; therefore be it
Resolved, That we, the members of Local
Union No. 345, American Railway Union, in
assembiage, do most earnestly and unani-
mously protest against the passage of any
funding bill or any measure of similar char
acter which will enable the Central Pacific
Company to eyade the settlement of its Just
debts and by SO doing imposing upon the
people OF California the burden of the

signs.
Judgment of Three Non.C ompeting
Architects Invited by the
Committee.

A committee of regents of the State Uni.
versity held long session yesterday after
noon at the Mark Hopkins Institute OF
Art. The five designs for affiliated col
leges recently submitted by architects were
discussed. The committee consisted of
]. West Martin, Colonel C. F. Crocker,
General Houghton, Timothy Guy Phelps,
j. B. Relnstein and the secretary, DR..
Bonte Among others attending to hear
the result of the committees elaboration
were: Major Mhoon, attorney of the
board of regents; Columbus Bartlett; DR..
r. Beverly Cole. president of the medical
college; o. P. Evans of the law college;
Professor Dunbar. dean of the dental col
lege; Melburne NJ. Searby, dean OF the col
lege OF pharmacy; Or. Skaef, the dean of
the veterinary college,; George T. Marve,
and several college repres entatiyes
The architects and college repre- senta-
tives were admitted singly to the commit
tee-room, and each had fair hearing.
After long discussion on ground plans,
interior space, decorations, general fitting
and estimates of probable cost the commit
tee decided to refer the matter to a COM
mittee of three architects twas resolved
to request Albert M. Pissis, Clinton Day
and Walter ]. Matthews to serve on this
committee.
This resolution did not appear to meet
with the universal favor Of the architects
assem- bled. There was an impression that
Clinton Day, university man, was in
clined to favor the plans proposed by
Architect Sutton. 1t is said that Mr.. SUIT
toms design has many admirers among the
regents, and that to counteract the infiu-
ence favorable to his plans and to ad vance
the fortunes OF Architect Pelton o. P.
Evans was On the scene. Attorney Frank

the latter is not only capable architect.
but also graduate of the State Unver-
sity. The gossip goes that Governor Budd
has unbounded faith in Architect Pelton.
The Stockton Free Library building was
designed By Mr.. Pelton, and the designing
of that edifice meets the full measure of
the Governors conception of architecture.
DR.. Cole has studied the plans presented
by Mr.. Sutton and says that the archit ct
prepared them after elaborate survey and
close detail inspection of modern colleges
of the East.
The committee made diligent inquiry as
to the cost of the buildings, and each archi-
tect called in, speaking for his own plans,
assured the regents that the cost would
not exceed the sum of money appropriated.
Another meeting of the committee will
the board of regents will meet and at that
meeting one of the five designs submitted
will probably be chosen.

Every planter has secured excellent re-
suits, and one farmer who provided

opinion when the drouth became severe
that the plants would wither and die
they did not believe the soil was strong
and fertile enough to sustain them. but
their experience has relieved all anxiety
on that score. However, the excellent
results obtained by the gentleman who
provided steam >irrigating plant has
induced the others to make arrange
ments for the installation of similar
plants before the next summer drouth%

Orange Dropping from the Trees.

Oranges are said to be dropping from
the trees in greater quantity this year
than was ever known before in this Sec
tion. The complaint is general through
out the country, and is attributed to the
recent excessively warm weather fol-
lowed by cool wave, which started the
sap running and then suddenly checked
it. A few weeks ago the crop gave
promise of being the heaviest on record,
but now it will fall con siderably short
of last seasons crop. This seems to be
the opinion of a majority of orange
gro wers, although some close observers
still believe the crop will be an average
one. The fruit is we'll advanced and
should not further trouble arise will
maintain that degree of excellence
which commands the top figure in the

Come to Florida.

Come to Florida.
A young man writing to L. B. Womb
we'll, Florida's s commissioner Of Agricul-
ture says:
Are there any vacant public lands in
Florida; what do they cost and where
are they located? Are the chances good
in Florida for young, energetic man
who has been accustomed to roughing it
on the frontiers? Can labor be lad and
what is the price of it, etc.
To this Mr.. Wombwell replies as fol-
lows:
"There is no better country on the
globe for man of character, energy
and economic habits to attain success,
and all that the word implies. This is
Just like every other country in this big
world of ours, it is no place for the slug
gard, the man who. expects to make his
living off the toll of others without con
trlbuting his share Of the burden In re-
turn; or for the man who sits idly by
and "waits for something to turn up .
Florida is no place for such people, but
for those who are willing with their
hands and ready with their brains and
patient in the exercise OF proper vigi'
lance, and hopes for the end to be ac'
complished, there is certain success;
at least, as far as man can control 1T.
If you are one of the latter class, and
believe you are, judging from the spirit
of your letter, | say come to Florida,
for such as you will be sure to succeed.
GAS a general thing labor can be had
when wanted, at fair rates, by day,
week or month; or if you do not wish to
employ labor, and prefer to work a while
for others until you have an opportunity
to see more of the country and make a
selection at leisure, you can command
from one dollar to two and a half pei
day, or in proportion by week or month,
depending on the trade you are engaged
in, or the character of the labor to be
performed, and also upon the expertness
and thoroughness of the work accom-
plished. If you are laboring man, you
undertand, of course, what that means
''Florida enjoys the distinction OF
possessing greater diversity of climat
than any other state in the Union, and
is to that extent divided into several Sec
tions, each of which produced some
fruits and grain or vegetable products,
practically unknown, because unsuited
to cultivation in the others. 1t is also
true that there is no pursuit, trade or
industry known to large majority OF
states, which cannot be carried on with
profit in this state. My advice to you
is to come to Florida and take look at
the country before you purchase any
property; it will be more satisfactory to
you. ."-Florida Life.

The Ft. Meade Tobacco Colony.

The Fl. Meade Tobacco Colony.
The Tampa Times OF recent date
says:
M. A. Abalo, M. D., president of the
Cuban Tobacco Growers company, linn
tied, of Ft. Meade, is in the city today
paying the duties on and arranging for
the shipment of q large quantity of
Havana tobacco stored here which be-
longs to his company. The company's
factory is doing most satisfactory and
successful business, having disposed of
all the cigars they have manufactured
so far readily and at good prices, and
the force in the factory is being steadily
enlarged This promises to be most
satisfactory and important feature of
the company's business.
The company is also making arrange
ments for the establishment Of a large
cigarette factory in Ft. Meade. Ma
chimes will be introduced to make the
Turkish-style cigarettes, which are the
most popular class of goods sent out by
the Havana factories. They will use a
new style of machine which binds and
fastens the paper without the use of
paste-a most desirable improvement,
which will be especially appreciated by
the American cigarette smokers, nine
tenths of whom do not understand the
peculiar art of re-rolling and preparing
them for smoking. There has recently
been erected on the company's largest
plantation an extensive irrigating plant
in connection with which is fifty
horse power toiler, and the surplus
power generated by this boiler, will be
used to operate the machines in the ci-
garette factory.
The preferred stock of the company
has been foated readily at 80 per cent,
bearing five per cent interest. The ag-
gregate of this stock is $50, 900, which
is ample for the purpose Of thoroughly
equipping and establishing the enter
prise and meeting all expenses until it
becomes self-supporting. The $4,000
issue was placed in London by Henry
Esme Stuart, one of the directors of the
company, and who is also engaging ex-
tensively in tobacco culture on his own
account.
DR.. Abalo this morning reiterated to
the writer his firm conviction as an
nounced in these columns several
months ago that the culture of the very
finest grade of cigar tobacco on the
company's plantations has passed the
experimental stage and is an accom-
plished fact. They have tobacco now
in all stages of growth and curing, and
in every detail all concerned are highly
gratifed with the results obtained. The
expert Cuban growers were somewhat
alarmed at the length of the recent
drouth, and were fearful that they
would lose large percentage OF the
