NOW HEADING
FOR VISALlA
Reedley Has Been Reached
and Passed by the
Valley Road.
Second Annual Meeting Of the
Trustees of the Com
peting Line.
Reports of the Years Work Submitted
by the Secretary and
Engineer.

In the absence of Claus Spreckels, who
Is away recuperating, John D. Spreckels
presided yesterday at the second annual
meeting of the trustees cf the Valley road.
Reports were submitted by Secretary
Alexander Mackie and Chief Engineer
Storey OF the results of the work durin g
the past year.
After the reports had been read the trus-
tees reelected all the old mem bers OF the
board of directors, and these in turn re-
elected the former officers of the company.
The officers and directors are as follows:
President, Claus Spreckels; vice. pre- sident
Robert Watt; second vice president, Cap
tain A. H. Payson; Charles Holbrook
John D. Spreckels, j. B. Stetson, Leon
Sloss, Thomas Magee, Isaac Upham, Al
vinza Hayward, J. A. Hooper.
Some interesting facts and figures were
given in the report of Chief Engineer
Storey. At the end of last year, June 80
1896, 82.2 miles of track on the main road
had been laid and 81 miles of sidetrack
were in place, making SS.3 miles in all.
At the conclusion of the second year OF
the roads existence it had 1885 miles OF
track down on its main line and 2l52
miles of siding, making a total OF 2lO.l2
miles. In other words, during the year
ending June 80, 1897, the road, under the
able supervision of Engineer Storey, had
constructed 1912 miles, or about 80 per
cent more than the year previous.
In connection with the construction
work the company has built more than
5000 feet OF bridging, including several
large, handsome structures across the
various rivers that had 10 be crossed.
During the past year two roundhouses
were built, eight depots were put up at as
many points, many freight platforms and
stock corrals were constructed, and 1l6
miles of telegraph line were built in con-
nection with the Postal Telegraph Com
pary.
Additions were made to the equipment
of the road during the same period as fol-
lows: Four freight locomotives, three
passenger locomotives, one hundred box
cars one hundred stockcars, nine pas
senger coaches and three com bination
baggage and passenger coaches. The
total equipment OF the road Is now as fol-
lows: Seven freight locomotives OF 65
tons each, three passenger locomotives
$50 hatcars, 100 boxcars, 100 stockcars,
nine passenger coaches and three combi-
nation baggage and passenger coaches-
The first regular trains over the road
were put on January "A. 1897, and to-day
the line is being operated some way be-
yond Hanford, distance of more than
Two hundred miles.
Track was laid to Reedley yesterday,
and is now being laid toward Vsalia,
which point will be reached not later than
the middle OF August. Owing to right of
way matters not being in shape to con-
tinue WORK into Kern County, it is not ex-
pected to reach Bakersfield in time to
move this years crop from that point.

THE WAR.

Readers of the BULLETIN would
have remembered, in perusing the
war news furnished yesterday, that
the focus of the fighting has been
on the same ground as that on
which the battle of Actium was
fought a generation prior to the
Christian era. This was anticipated
in an article printed in this paper
several days previously. The ex-
istence OF grim war with modern
weapons in the very cradle OF the
human race, where titanic strug-
giles conducted by allworld heroes
for empire took place many CEN
turies ago, ought to give an inn
petus to the study of history. 1t
was the Aryan race and civiliza-
ton with n measure of freedom
which triumphed generally in the
ancient wars, and history in
this reepect to a large
extent may be hoped to repeat it
self at this juncture. Since the
powers have let Greece and
Turkey be up and at each other
without a violent jar to the con-
cert, they ought to remove the
unfair embargo on Grecisn re
sources which they have created
in the blockade against her YES
sells. Greece ought in fair play
to have the free use of all the en-
giuery Of war she owns, be
sides that of all the strategic po-
sitious belonging to or that might
be gained by her. These things
she should be freely granted even
if, for the sake of the worlds
peace, it might be expedient to
delimit the arena of her belliger
ant action and, after the war is
over, to prevent whichever com.
blatant may be victorious from
making territorial or other exac-
tons OF a kind to jeopardise
universal tranquility.

A FEW NOVELTIES FOR
THE KITCHEN.
ON

By the Australia we have
received some novelties in
Kitchen utensils WHICH will
be appreciated by all Homo
lulu houSekeeperS on sight.
- The CHAMPION ROASTER
is handy, convenient and cheap.
1t is a portable oven designed
to be placed on top of an Or
binary cooking stove. 1t will
bake anything in the shape of
fish, flesh or fowl and for
cooking cake it is unequalled.
It can be moved about while
the cooking is going on and
the heat regulated to nicely.
They cost just an even $3.50.
STROUD'S SELF BASTING
PAN is another useful novelty.
1t consists of an enameled dish
or cooking pan which sets in
side another in which the hot
water is held. 1t can be used
inside an oven or on top of
the stove. Its price is $3.50
only.
TELESCOPE COFFEE POTS
we have advertised before and
their merits are known. They
are absolutely the best in use
and that is saying a good deal.
We have a fresh supply of
them on hand in several sizes.
We have also received by
this steamer a fresh invoice of
the BLUE FLAME OIL STOVES
in two sizes, either three or
four burners, which we are
selling now at S22 and SIS
each.

1t is learned that the President
Cd the Board OF Health, Attorney
General W. 0. Smith, has matsri-
ally changed his ideas upon our
modes of quarantine. He has
openly declared the opinion that
1t was unnecessary to have quar-
antiued the Minister of Foreign
Affairs and other officials. Also,
that there is no reason for quar-
antining cabin passengers of steams
ers having clean bills of health
or preventing them from landing
Mr.. Smith is in the possession of
. mass of data upon the English
rules Of quarantine, and after
digesting them sufficiently will be
heard from. He will propose radical
changes. The BULLETIN is pleased
to have lis views Of quarantine, as
given repeatedly of late, endorsed
by such high authority, although
ii does not claim Mr.. Smith as a
convert. 1t is only an instance at
great minds running in grooves,
If Il certain sensitive contemporary
will pardon the pleasantly.

Have You
An Account :?

This is a serious question,
one at which some folks take
offense, yet statesmen are under
the necessity of asking it.
Some folks deal near home,
settle infrequently, never in
vestigate to see whether they
pay more than they should and
too often allow their accounts to
60 long over due. If you don't
care what the family expenses
are it's a poor way to do if you
want to leave your children i'll
affiuent circumstances when
you are gone. Now it is quite
an advantage to have an open
account at a well-known house,
who can execute your order
promptly. Often persons say
they don't want an account and
will pay in a few days. But
we cannot keep memoranda of
charges; it isn't safe or good
business. The stock found in
ordinary stores is usually stale,
uninviting and inferior, while
the stock in our store is turned
so frequently and so carefully
watched that it is at all times
fresh. Our stock in trade con-
sists of the luxuries and deli
cacies from every civilized ma
ton. Send for our catalogue
and prices and note the variety
offered. Telephone us-24O.

Public business was seriously
inpodcd by the incarceration OF
the Minister of Foreign Affairs
and Education in quarantine for
eighteen days. Had the extreme
views of some people governed
the precautionary measures of the
Board of Health, so that Mr..
Cooper and the other officials
would have been shut up with the
immigrants Mt the immigration

OF the country would have been
hampered by their absence now

Notes BY Frances Willard.

The Catholic church and the arch
diocese of Boston. by the voice Of its
clergy, has announced itself the un-
compromising friend of temperance.
One hundred and seventy priests
headed by the venerable Archbishop
williams was sent to the Legislature OF
Massachusetts asking that such laws
be enacted as viii prevent the sale OF
intoxicating liquors in any public park
within the commonwealth. 1t would be
a mistake to think that the earnest
men who have thus started new
movement have no purpose reaching
beyond the terms of their request. for
while it is most desirable to protect the
pleasure and recreation grounds of tho
state from the presence of alcoholic
poison, it is declared by those who
know the animus of the movement
that the great underlying purpose
which these promoters of temperance
desire to acceiituate by every possible
and honorable means in their power is
to manifest the attitude of the Catholic
clergy on the liquor question in general,
and to disabuse the minds Of those who
have misunderstood the spirit of the
church on this matter" 1t is declared
to be against liquor dealers and the
liquor traffic in toto that this action,
determined upon in the residence of the
archbishop himself is to be directed
and it is stated to be nothing more nor
less that the logical outcome of that
famous decree, promulgated by the last
session of American bishops as follows
Therefore, we warn all persons en-
gagged in the sale of liquor to consider
seriously the many and great dangers
and occasions for sin with which theI
business is surrounded, even IL that
business in itself be not illicit. When
they are able let them choose a more
decent way of making their living
Should they not abandon the traffic
they must do all in their power to re-
move the occasion Of sin from them
selves as well as from selling liquor to
minors, or to those who they foresee
will abuse it. Let them keep their
shops closed on Sundays. and at nc
time allow on their premises the use OF
filthy or profane language. If through
their guilty means, or help, the cause OF
religion is brought into dishonor. OF
men are sent to their ruin, let them
pear well III tHdl -luClC Ao Oh
avenging God in heaven, who will
surely chastise them with the severest
punishments."
We have ascertained on good author
ity that no intoxicating liquors were
furnished at the Inauguration ball. and
that dinner was given at the White
House to the relatives of the President
and Mrs. Mckinley at which no wine
was served. For this all temperance
people will be devotedly thankful. The
wise woman of the Bible said to her
son, ut is not for Kings, o, Lemuel, ii
is not for Kings to drink wine," and we
believe if she were here today she
would add, land least of all, is it for the
Peoples King"
We do not mean to be what certain
famous author has called ''hen-minded'
i. C., women made UP of one aim at
one time and manifold anxieties at all
|times"-but we would have many aims
as signified by our favorite motto, The
Everything Policy" and no anxi-
cites Whatever.
