brilliant lights shining among the
clergy of the Vermont conference.

BoNDsMEN AND THEIR TROUBLE

A case now before the courts wherein
the bondsmen of ]. p. Moran are sued
for nearly $4,000 shortage is attracting a
good deal of attention
The will of Bridget Wilson was ad-
mitted to probate, and then it was at
tackled by the husband, John Wilson.
A judgment for the plaintiff was given
and Moran was appointed by the court
as special administrator. The admins
traitor gave a bond for round sum and
seven citizens became his sureties, quail
flying in sums of $4,000 to SIS, 900 each. An
appeal was taken from the decision of
our superior court and the supreme court
reversed the decision. thus ousting the
special administrator When called on
for an ,counting the special admins

named above.
The executors under the original will
sue The bondsmen for the amount, and
proceed to tie up perhaps $780,

SEPTEMBER ~, 1907.
M,xENNA cHEcKMATEs E1x1Ns

The facts connected with the now
notorious Section % Of the Dingley tariff
law are gradually coming to light II
Is that section which apparently imposes
q discriminating duty of 10 per cent upon
all goods brought in vessels not Of United
States register, landed at the ports Of a
contiguous country and then brought
into the United States. The 10 per cen.
!e, Of course. in addition to the ordinary
duties imposed Oh the goods.
Senator Steve" Elkins Of West vir-
ginia now declares that he is the author
Of the famous section, and that he caused
It to be inserted for the benefit Of Amer
lean shipping. He wants the United
States to be mistress Of the seas. There
was no trick or secrecy, according to
Senator Elkins about the insertion of the
clause in the bill. He did not tell what he
had done because he feared possible
opposition.
That is nice confession to come from a
senator of the United States. The Re-
publicans had big majority in congress,
but the West Virginia senator dared not
trust his own party. Or, looking at the
matter from another point of view, the
section cannot have been a wise and just
provision otherwise its author would not
have been afraid to have it discussed in
the open senate. It was in this respect
the "crime Of '73" over again.
However, Senator Elkins' little trick
is not likely to work in practice. Attor-
ney General McKenna decided yesterday
that goods coming directly into the
United States from foreign countries
through Canadian ports are not subject
to discriminating duty OF 10 per cent
He also holds that foreign goods shipped
in British vessels from other countries
than Great Britain are not subject to
such duty. The decision will doubtless
govern the course Of the treasury off,
cials.
Whatever good effect the clause might
have had, will always be retarded with
suspicion because of the underhand way
adopted by Senator Elkins to secure it's
introduction as part of the tariff bill
It may have been mere coincidence
that If it had stood the section would
have affected unfavorably all the trans
continental railroads excepting the
Southern Pacific.

AN UNWARRANTED SHOOTING

IL a special policeman, not in uniform.
authorized to shoot down an unarmed
man on mere suspicion of theft?
Early Sunday morning Special Police
man Bayer saw man carrying pair of
whiffletrees. and, supposing them to
have been stolen, called upon the man
to stop. The latter, SO the policeman
says, dropped the whiff1etrees and
started to run, whereupon the officer
fired, hitting the man in the thigh and
wounding him severely.
The wounded man says that he left
his home early for the purpose of buying
bottle Of wine. In front Of him was
man carrying the whiffletrees. Someone
stepped from the shadows and shouted
something which, not understanding
English. he was unable to understand.
He thought he was being held up and
started to rum Then he was shot.
Bertrand, the man who was shot.
stands charged with petit larceny. His
wife put up $50 cash bail, and his neigh
bors say he is a hardworking man with
a reputation for honesty.
But even supposing that Bertrand
Gid steal those whif1etrees, special po-
licemen not in uniform have no right
to be so free in using their revolvers.
Nobody whose affairs take him out late
at night is safe If Bayer's action is to be
the rule. 1t is more dangerous than be-
ing held up. 1t is only a few months
since George Duey, an Associated Press
operator, and one of the best t-known tel
egraphers in the country, while return
ing home after a nights work, was shot
and killed, at Cincinnati, by fresh"
policeman who thought" he was
burglar
The mere fact that man Is given the
authority of special policeman does
not warrant him in shooting at sight
anybody whom he meets, even though
he may regard the circumstances as
suspicious. The mere fact that a man
carries revolver does not prove that he
is competent to make proper use Of it..
The case Of Special Officer Bayer plain
ly calls for an Investigation

LOS ANGELES A MINING CENTER

Mine owners are numerous in this city
Los Angeles is the headquarters of i'm
portant mining companies; it has a
mining exchange and dealing in mines
and mining stocks is considerable. All
these contribute to the business, pros
perity and growth Of the city, but their
value is small as compared with that
which would result from the establish
ment and operation Of plants for ore
treatment. They would afford employ
ment to the idle, and consumers of the
abundant food products of the adjacent
country.
Los Angeles is so situated geograph-
ically and in regard to transportation
facilities and mineral producing belts,
that the establishment of ore treating
plants is not only practicable but Il,
should be profitable Kansas City.
Omaha, ard st. Louis are much farther
away from sections which produce min
erals than this city, and yet they COM
mand liberal patronage and realize
profits from ore treating Industries.
There are no mines in the immed diate vi
cinity of San Francisco or Denver, and
yet they do large ard profitable busi-
ness in ore treatment, the latter city
especially. This city is properly situat-
ed to smelt ores from a large part of
California, from Lower California, Ari-
zona and Sonora, which constitute in
whole a larger mineral district than is
tributary to any Of the five cities named
except Denver.
1t is true this district produces a larg-
er percentage of gold than any other
in the nation of equal magnitude, and
that much the larger part OF gold bear
ing ores is treated by the comparatively
simple and inexpensive milling pro-
cess A minority part of silver ores can
also be milled. While milling is less ex-
pensive, a less percentage OF the metal
is saved than in smelling. Milling ores
are mainly treated at the mines, because
1t is cheaper to erect mill than to trans
port the ore a considerable distance.
Unless mines which produce ores that
have to be smelte0 are situated near a
railroad. 1t is far less expensive TO con-
centrate and ship to distant smelter
than to erect ore at the mine and haul
fuel to 1t, The larger part OF ores that
have to be smelted are silver connected
with lead. or mineral that renders them
unadapted to the milling process.

A FINE FRENZY

In the more or less general decrepi-
tude that marks the tone Of modern
municipal government in its grapple
with municipal rascality. It 10 a relief to
the feelings to take up tile narrative of
the board Of supervisors of San Fran
cisco, which has just been accorded a
place in the history Of the metropolis.
The solid eight" had things pretty
much their own way, and according to
the local report there, were rapidly ma
turing system Of municipal control the
aim and purpose Of which was to SUBJ
stitute the will Of boss" in the place
of municipal charter. The irrepressi-
bic conflict between the city and the
Spring Valley water people. (Which has
not slumbered in a quarter Of a CEN
tury) was still on the boards, and the
"bosses" were ranged upon the side Of
the water company. The city was being
unceremoniously given over to the will
Of its ancient foe, and pandemonium
reigned in all the departments Of the
city and county government. The
"bosses" Of the city officialdom were
gleefully lodging back and forth
through the treasure vaults of the city,
somewhat after the manner Of the imps
with barbed tails and long-handled
forks, upon the walls Of Tartarus as
these are made to embellish the mediae-
val illustrated Apocrypha, when some
thing suddenly dropped. This some
thing was decision by Judge (formeriy
chief justice of the supreme court) Wal
lace, removing the whole Malvolio from
office. This was the manifesto, and the
war that succeeded has not lacked any
Of the vigor of the pronunciamento.
A new board was Immediately ap-
pointed by the mayor and the governor
Of the state. The suddenness of it all
seems to have produced sort Of paral-
ysis Of the aggregate boss intellect. Re
moval from off1ce-impossible They
would just go right on and administer
the city and county government under
the guidance Of the Spring Valley. and
leave the mayor and the governor and
Judge Wallace to reflect upon the folly
Of their feeble opposition. In this super
ior frame Of mind the discredited clique
sat down on Monday to transact the
official business Of the hour when they
were swooped down upon by the police
and incontinently rushed from the coun-
Gil chamber.
1t Is needless to add that all the decent
people in San Francisco-and elsewhere,
| for that matter-feel sense of elation
at the result. 1t shows that there is a
fine, masculine spirit still left in the
body Of the community that can make
itself felt when supreme necessity sug-
gests that the time for action has come.
The whole narrative supplies very good,
healthy, suggestive reading for official
circles everywhere, for there are few
bosses still roaming at large in official
| toggery.

SAN FRANCISCO AND THE SANTA
TE

The San Francisco Chronicle notes with
qualification that the net earnings of the
great Santa Fe railroad system for the
last fiscal year amount to $7.754, ,041, and
very properly. says. that it Is, an ex-
traordinary showing when the conditions
ton.
But this is not the burden Of the Chron-
icle's song. 1t assumes that the Santa
Fe must and does wish to get into San
Francisco, and declares that there will
be no difficulty in raising the necessary
funds. Then 1t says:
The very proposal to exchange a
minor and subsidiary coast terminal
for a metropolitan one tends to
strengthen the credit of the road. Such
move not only implies but guarantees
new business of a most profitable kind.
1t is an open secret that at the time of
the Barring failure. the Santa Fe was
preparing to move north and operate
through this port with the Peninsular
and Oriental steamship line. Lack Of
money stopped the work. The tempta-
tion lasted, however, and now that
earnings are good, borrowing easy,
steel rails, cheap and the connection
with San Francisco built two-thirds
of the way, and still moving on, what
is to hinder the Santa Fe from carry
ing out its original plans? We don't
think there Is anything.
~ oh hall La H.
into San Francisco, and don't waste any
time in doing it, San Francisco needs
the Santa Fe great deal more than the
minor and subsidiary" city of Los An
geles needs San Francisco. The scheme
does not worry jhis town particle. Or
the contrary we will take hold and help
We want to see San Francisco prosper,
in the same degree If possible that Los
Angeles has grown and prospered within
the past decade, and If she needs one OF
our railroads in order to hit that high
water mark, she should have it.
Los Angeles is the metropolis of an
empire of it's own. We have advantages
that no other city can take from us with
a dozen railroads. The future of this
city is assured. This sort of talk may
seem over-confident and bumptious
but a city that has increased
in population over 100 per cent In
seven years in the face of the worst
season Of business depression the coun-
try has endured for twenty years has
the right to feel confident.

TO lie in allegiance, no one knows now
how long.
There are other suits pending in the
estate. and until these are all settled
no one knows to whom the estate will
finally belong, or whether the executors
under the will have any claim to make.
AT least one of the bondsmen in whose
name great deal of property stands
Of record. is reported to have raised the
contention that said property, although
In his name. is not his. and II the report
is true. he will claim that no part of the
deficit can be collected from him. This
Is likely to be contested. And there are
other complications by which the con-
tention is likely to be very much pro-
longed.
It will not be necessary to secure mag
nifying glasses for the average business
man to see that he cannot afford to go
on any bond Of any sort. Heretofore 1t
has been necessary that someone should
go on bonds in order to expedite bust
ness. But no such necessity any longer
exists. We have we'll organized COM
panies for this purpose with ample capi-
tai, carefully conducted and in every
way responsible.
The proper thing when a man wants
a bond will be to buy 1t from one of these
companies. II a loss is sustained the
company can afford to bear it and there
will be no individual suffering.
We would advise all citizens hereaf-
ter when importuned to go on bond,
no matter for whom, to steer their friend
straight to some Office where these
bonds are sold and advise him to buy
one.

Very Different Things

resignation has been withdrawn and
he will continue as president of the In
stitution. The fortunes Of one man or
of one school do not count for much, but
the lesson taught plutocracy by the
now famous episode is of great value.
1t has been demonstrated beyond the
shadow Of a doubt that the American
people propose to have educational in
stitutions operated primarily for the
benefit of youths and not to make mon-
ey. A college and an oil monopoly are
very different things, the nation feels,
and the Rockefellers have ascertained.
