TO THE EDITOR
Where Are the Smelling Works

what has become of the smelling works
that was started here some time ago?
Has the project died out? If SO, why?
Is there any reason why a smelter would
not pay in Los Angeles, and, if SO, why?
l believe it would pay, and that here in
Los Angeles is just the place for such
a plant, as it is the central point of a
large mining section, and is the most
accessible point of any in this Southern
California country.
hope The Herald will take UP the sub
ject and keep it before the people until
Los Angeles gets a smelter. 1t would
mean much for both the city and the

Benefit of Good Roads

What is 1t that makes any place big
center of population lit is it's accessi-
bility. If it is not easy to get into a
town, or at least comparatively easy,
people are liable to give it the go-by.
Good roads is the secret of a towns ease
of accessibility. Show us a town from
which radiate in every direction good
wagon roads and you show good town
that is successful. 1t is easy to get into.
1t is cheaper to get into for it saves on
horse flesh and a saving on horse flesh
is sufficiently an inducement to the pro-
Queer to go there.-Placerville Nugget.

The tendency to physical culture
through gymnastic exercises in the pub
lie schools should be encouraged. That
a sound body is essential to a sound
capable mind is truth too obvious and
too important to be ignored. The Amer
lean people have run too little to body
building, and in consequence the de-
velopment of strength, suppleness and
grace in the physique of their young
has been shamefully neglected. There
is more than one task in the course of
public school education that might be
better dispensed with than the task of
laying the foundation for robust phys
ical growth in the pupils. There is q
chance for some notable Improvement in
this particular in the schools of Los An

More About the Canoe.

1t will be remembered that several
weeks ago THE REPUBLICAN con
tanned an account of the recovery of
canoe from the bed of Deep Creek
by eX-Fish Commissioner Browning
At the time the canoe was found it
was the general impression that it
belonged to that old hunter Mr.. Me
shech Browning, and in the past few
days that suppOsition has been
strengthened by evidence that cannot
be questioned.
One day last week Mr.. Thomas
Browning, a son of Meshech, who is
now past eighty years of age, hap
pened by Lake Brown and espied the
old canoe and Immediately recognized
it as belonging to his father. He
at once told how, over seventy
years ago, his father and John Enlow,
who was the progenitor of the EnlOw
family in Garrett county, had made
the old dugout and launched it. En-
low wanted the boat made twenty
feet long and pointed at both ends
Meshech wanted it much shorter and
as usual he had his way.
Mr.. Thomas Browning stated that
shortly after the canoe was made he
and another boy went to the accus-
toned place to get into it but it had
disappeared and it was thought then
that some one had stolen it, but the
recent bringing to light of the old
relic has dispelled that delusion.

The session of the Circuit Court for
this county thus far has been one Of
unusual interest.
Monday afternoon after the grand
jury has been empanneled the case of
Ryland ct al, against the liquor deal
ers Of district No. . was heard by the
court. Under the new liquor license
law it requires that a petition shall be
presented TO the court bearing the
names Of registered voters before a
vote can be taken on the question of
license. 1t also provides that if a
counter petition bearing a greater
number of names be presented no
vote can be taken. The petition
presented by Ryland had the names
of number of persons who were not
registered. \ counter petition was
filed by the saloon keepers which had
a few less names than that filed by
Ryland. The point raised was that
the first petition did not have the re-
CURED number of registered voters
names on it and the court ruled that
such being the case no vote will be
taken on the question.

peal cases were taken UP and disposed

book On the United States, entitled
Jonathan and His Continent" saws;
"Themost indispensable, itappears-
the most conspicuous at any rate

adroit in the use OF them: thoy sell

cism that We subject ourselves to in
the eyes Of the visiting foreigner, and
it is, indeed, deserved.
The American men chew more to-
bacco than those Of any other country.

were crowded with ladies the writer
counted in the two blocks from Third
street down Alder to Second and from
Alder to Liberty street, scattered at
random over the sidewalk, two hun

varying III diameter from one to three
inches; and all were fresh.
The Declaration of independence
gives to all men the right to enjoy
life, liberty and the pursuit OF
happiness, therefore, if it be necessary
in the enjoyment of these things for
him to spit he has a perfect right
to Go SO. Other people, however, have
the same rights under the Declara-
tion, and in thus promiscuously eX-
pectorating the tobacco splitter is en-
trenching upon them. Probably the
majority of men are affected more or
less, by some lung trouble; many of
these two hundred and fifteen pools
contain germs of disease which lodge
on the ladies dresses and are carried
home, perhaps to breed illness in
child already delicate. Then, too.
many dainty fabrics are stained and
spoiled by accidentally dragging into
this stream of juice, which is so great
that it always cannot be avoided.
1t has always been the proud boast
of the American man that he is a gem
tleman. Then let him prove it by
showing consideration for others! If
it be necessary for him to expectorate
it should be no trouble for him to step
to the side of the walk and deposit
his tobacco juice into the street, where
it would do comparatively little harm.
If every man shall see that he him
self does this it will not be long before
the sidewalks of Oakland will not be
recognized by the oldest habitue.

time on Saturday night, and notwith-

who spoke for time on the issues of

and instructive talk on the financial
question.

be present at that time to discuss the
