SAN DIEGO
Problems to Be Solved by Chula Vista
Water Company

SAN DIEGO, Oct. 3.-The water con-
sumers to Chula Vista find themselves
in a sorry plight as the result of Judge
Ross recent decision. At meeting OF
a local Organization known as 'The
Water Rights Defense Association" /"
held on Friday, the situation of the
water consumer under Judge Ross de-
cision was discussed at length. 7 1t was
shown that, should the decision stand,
and the state law, which provides for
an income to companies furnishing wa
ter of not less than per cent and not
more than Is per cent on the capital In
vested. also stand, that the water rate
would run up to $50 per Acre. Even
on basis Of 6 per cent the revanue OF
the company would be $1200O0 a year,
and to raise this amount would be a
heavy burden on the water consumers.
1t was. the unanimous opinion Of the
meeting that the decision Of Judge Ross
should be appealed from.
The Populist county central commit
tee met last Friday and nominated a

POMONA
A Great Meeting Of the Silver Forces.
Local Notes

POMONA, Oct 4-The free silverites
drew the crowd last evening, and that.
too, in the face Of counter demonstra-
tion by the Republicans and the Critten-
ton revival services, which are being
held in the Methodist church. Judge
j. N. Phillips, the speaker for the occa-
sion, was greeted by an audience that
taxed the seating capacity Of the free
silver wigwam, while many an empty
seat graced the Mckinley demonstra-
tion; this, too, when the Mckinley club
had made such preparations to CENTER
tain" the crowds-that didn't come
for they engaged the Pomona band to
furnish music, and putting sashes and
Mckinley hats on the Republican
youth" they marshaled whatever force
there was to muster and marched to the
Republican tent under the glare OF
torches and headed by the band. AS
was the case on the Saturday night pre-
vious, their procession failed to in
spire the crowds to such an extent as to
attend the "hallelujah" time that was
announced to follow.
Judge ]. N. Phillips, the free silver
speaker, is a man of commanding pres
ence and held his audience last evening
from first to last. His speech was one
we'll worth hearing and was attentively
listened to by his audience to khe very
end. The two hours address was an
exhaustive review of the entire social
financial and political situation. replete
with argument and with pathos. The
vast audience, which extended nearly
across the street, after filling the tent,
was by turns spellbound and wild with
delight. 1t was the greatest meeting
ever held in Pomona, and the Hannaites
are paralyzed and partly sulking.

WORSE THAN A BLACK CAT
An Old Mans Horror Of Meeting Q
Nsgre
VIII Walk Block Out Of His Way to
Prevent q Negro from Crossing
His Path

Many people are so superstitious that
they will not look at the new moon over
their left shoulder. Others think it is
an ill-omen to have black cat cross
their path. There Is q man in Los An
geles who carries his superstitious feel
ings even farther. Nothing can induce
him to face negro. He will go block
out of his way to avoid meeting q dusky
son Of Ham.
Two gentlemen standing in front Of

some fun wifi his royal nibs. Jes' watch
me-"
The colored man resumed his work
ON the window he was washing, while
the two men who were enjoined to watch
him saw the tall, lank form Of the gen.
eral approaching from Broadway. He
swung along at an easy gait until he
came to the point where the negro was
working. At sight of the black mans
face he gave start and darted to the
opposite side of the street. The negro.
with a grin on his face, walked rapidly
down the street and, crossing over, met
the general before he reached the next
corner. The old man, startled at this
second meeting ,turnedNa Nat right angles
and recrossed the street, narrowly es-
Gaping being run over by milk wagon.
The negro also recrossed at point far
ther down the street and again confront
ed his victim. Again the general crossed
to the other side, his prosecutor following
suit and meeting him face to face at
every turn.
In vain the old man bobbed about from
one side of the street to the other al
great peril Of being run down by teams
or street cars. The laughing darkey was
everywhere. At last the general could
stand it no longer. Throwing his arms
in the air with descairing gesture.
and franticaliy waving his cane over
his head, he took to his heels and dis
appeared on Main street. The. negro
returned to his window washing, re-
marking:
Mex time dat moke comes along heah

I'll done chase him clean down into de

All of which must be very satisfactory
to Wilgus. and may probably spur other
firms on to take legal action against the
Newton company for damages. But
the latter corporation doubtless will
have something to say, and other courts
how many none can tell-will be called
upon to determine that which it is con-
fidently asserted by either side has al
ready been determined in their favor.
And thus is legal warfare made. The
cid illustration of law suit is shown
by the plaintiff pulling q cow by the
horns, while the defendant pulls equally
hard at the tail, and the sly attorney,
seated complacently, draws the richness
from the animal at his leisure. If such
illustration is even an approximation to
the truth 1t reflects more, perhaps, on
the assininity Of the litigants than upon
the lawyers, who simply do that for
which they are especially retained.
