When the breath of scandal touches
the garment of a friend, it is your duty
to believe that friend innocent until
his guilt is established. A friendship
that will not wear through adyersity is
worth little in the days of prosperity.
We are too prone to accept naked
charge as positive proof of guilt, for
getting that there are many despoilers
OF fair names in this world. Life would
be sweeter and better if friend would
trust friend. The scandal monger can
tear down in one day what it has taken
years OF patient labor to build up.

A novel sight was seen on our streets
on last Friday afternoon. 1t was man
who said he was from Asheville, N. O.,
and was moving himself, his wife and
three children to Marietta. The man
was working himself to cart, pulling
one OF the children and what seemed
to be their luggage The woman and
other children were walking. He had
pulled his cart all the way from Ashe-

SALINAS SUGAR PLANT
is NEARING COMPLETION

SALINAS, Feb. 28.-The Risdon Iron
Works of San Francisco, which has the
contract with the Spreckels Sugar Com
pany for the erection and riveting of all
the structural iron work of the factory
buildings has practically completed the
steel frame work of the main building
for a distance of us feet from the north
end. There are nine roof trusses up and
others ready. The company has twelve
gangs of riveterS, or forty-eight men in
all driving rivets, every connection being
made with hot riVetS, the smallest of
which is three-quarters of an inch in d.
ameter. Thirty-five crystallizers have
been placed in position on the third floor
G. S. Field, the superintendent of con-
struction, says that there are now over
200O tons of steel erected and that should
the weather continue favorable the steel
frame work of the factory building will
ninety-three men at work at the present
time and will increase the force next
week.
The Spreckels Sugar Company is said
to be about to engage in an irrigating
enterprise of some magnitude on the
ranch at King City recently purchased of
g n. King The contract will soon be let
for the work, which will comprehend the
taking from the Salinas River, by four
twelve-inch centrifugal pumps, water for
irrigating the rich bottom lands of the
Salinas Valley Water Company's irrigat-
ing bitches, with which the land is
covered. This will be a big thing for
King CITY and will demonstrate the FEAST
biIity of irrigation by means of lifting the
water out upon the land.

Voters.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SAN JOSE, Feb. 2S.-This is the sea-
son of petitions in San Jose. Everyone
who has ever had any ambition to serve
the people is apparently taking advant-
age of the opportunity presented by
existing conditions. All nominations
for the election which is to be h,-,d six
weeks from to-day must be filed with
the City Clerk in the form of petitions.
1t requires only the signatures OF $50
properly qualified voters to make such
a petition valid, and there are few with
political aspirations who cannot mus
ter this number of friends.
Canvassers with petitions of various
candidates were encountered to-day in
the business portion of. the town. This
peculiar industry promises to continue
with more or less vigor each day until
the date fixed as the limit for filing
such petitions.
Judging from the petitions that have
been already filed and from those in
circulation, it is probable that the
gang" will make no formal nom1na-
tior by conventions. It's plan is evil
IDENTIFY to have it's men enter the field
as INDEPENDENT candidates, hoping thus
to conceal the connection of IT, non
with the gang" and thus delrT- the
public.
Under these circumstances there will
be - one safe way to vote for all
citizens who wish to further the cause
of good government. The ticket of the
New Charter Club must be voted
straight from top to bottom.
Through the papers which are not
friendly to the ~ood government move
ment, for reasons best known to them
selves and the gang" an impression
has been sought to be created that all
was not in tune with the Charter
Club nor between that organization and
kindred bodies seeking the overthrow
of the gang" After a careful inves-
tigation it can be positively stated that
all these elements will work and vote
as one for the success of the ticket
that has been named by the New Char
ter Club.
The latest Independent petitions -
are those of j. D. Miner for Council
man-at-large, and H. j. Fixes and
Henry Booksin ST., for members of the
ointing board. Petitions are report
ed to be in circulation for the follow
ing Independent candidates William

None of the candidates of the New
Charter Club has yet filed petition.

SERIOUS SEQUEL
TO THEIR JOKE
New Years Eve RevelerS Give
a Suisun Man UnpleaS-
a ant NOtoriety.

Special Dispatch to The Call.
SUISUN DEPOT, Feb 2S.-No little sur
prise was occasioned here to-day when
the people read in the San Francisco
Chronicle the account of the new de-
velopments in the Wilson murder case.
On October 8, 1896. Daniel H. Wilson, a
Suisun Valley orchardst, was murdered
at his doorstep after nfghtfall. There
were peculiarly suspicious circumstances
In connection with the cowardly murder,
and a few days thereafter three or four
arrests were made, but the suspected
persons were soon released The officers
were more baffled then than ever, but
they never gave up the case as hopeless.
Sheriff Rush and the other officers have
followed up every possible clew, and have
been confident all along of ultimately
bringing the assassin to Justice They
quietly and concealed their movements SO
carefully that the public regarded the
case as having been abandoned.
An incident which occurred a few weeks
ago however. revived interest in the case,
and led to the publication of an article
which bids fair to ruin the work done
thus far by the officers. On New Year s
eve, while the customary festivities were
being INDUCED in by a crowd of men and
bows. a practical joke was perpetrated on
one of the bystanders, and resulted in
giving him uncomfortable notoriety H.
W. McEwen is the person referred to, and
he is openly accused by the Chronicle of
being connected with the murder of Will
son.
McEwen's connection with the case was
the result of the employment by him as
housekeeper of Mrs. Dickinson, mother
in-law of the deceased. Mrs. Dickinson
was supposed to know something of the
murder and on the night McEwen was in
town seeing the old year out and the
new year in one of the hilarious spirits
jokingly suggested tat be be lynched for
numbering Wilson. McEwen, who is an
extremely nervous person, made frantic
efforts and succeeded in getting away
from the crowd.
This incident gave rise to considerable
though il was thought at first that he
might know something of the case there
was no cause for suspicion being cast
,non him, and the idea that he even
knew anything about the murder has
since been dissipated. Mr.. McEwen is
considerably aroused over the publication
and threatens a suit for libel.

SUDDEN DEATH
OF DAVID JACOB
San Francisco Merchant
Stricken by Heart
Disease.
Passes Away at Tacoma
Hotel After a Brief
illness.
Recent Business Reverses Believed
to Have Induced His Fatal
Illness.
Special Dispatch to The Cain.

TACOMA. Feb. 2S.-Davfd Jacob of
San Francisco died at the Bostwick
Hotel to-day of an attack of heart dis
ease. He became seriously Ill two
weeks ago and was thought to be dying
at one time last week. Mrs. Jacob,
who came from San Francisco three
weeks ago, will start back with his
body tomorrow morning. They have
three daughters and one son in San
Francisco, all unmarried.
The deceased was 81 years old. He
was a merchant at San Pablo for near
ly twenty years, and had lived in San
Francisco since six years ago. He was
born in France, and resided for some
time in Mexico. Six or seven years ago
he supplied money with which his sec
ond cousins, Meyer and Joseph Jacob,
established the Chicago shoe store and
City of Paris dry goods house here. He
remained in San Francisco as buyer.
Last years business was not brisk. and
in January last Meyer and Joseph ia
cob sold their interests to him.
Early this month he gave a chattel
mortgage on both stores to Mrs. Boris
of San Francisco, his wife's mother,
thus protecting Mrs. Boris, his wife and
several San Francisco friends for $4,000
alleged to have been put into the bust
mes by them. Mrs. Boris agent was
given possession and commenced to
sell off the stock. These proceedings
caused the filing of numerous garnish-
ment suits by unprotected creditors,
most of them San Francisco whole
salers, and a fierce war among attor-
neys followed. The excitement and
worry made Mr.. Jacob Ill, and there is
little doubt that his death was fastened
by these troubles.
AS matters now stand, Mrs. Boris at
torney is to continue selling the stocks,
retaining all receipts until the rights
of all litigants are settled.
Meyer Jacob, cousin of David, re-
turned tonight from his wedding trip
to Stockton and San Francisco.

ATHENS, Feb. 2S.-One of the men
who attempted the life Of the King of
Greece on Saturday has been arrested.
His name is Karditza and he is a
minor employee in the Mayors office

Two friends of Karditza have been
arrested on suspicion of being his &C
completes. He has become greatly de-
pressed.
King George has received a very af-
fecting telegram of congratulation
from Nine. Carnot. The Municipal
Council has decided to erect a memo
rial chapel near the scene of the acct
dent
Karditza, who is 35 years old, was
formerly a nom commissioned officer in
the army. He belongs to a class of
doubtful repute, locally designed as the
Koutzavantis.
The authorities obtained information
that Karditza was hiding in a house
of i'll repute, which they caused to be
surrounded by the police, but in the
meantime KarditZa had gone to the
Public Prosecutors office and sur
rendered himself, declaring his inno-
cense. Closely pressed, however. he
confessed to having been one of the
Kings assailants. He did not express
any regret, and declared that if the
gun had not trembled in the hands OF
his accomplce the King would have
been killed. KarditZa refused to give
any further information.
According to the Astay, it has been
decided at a secret meeting of a GER
tain club, held outside the city, to as
sassinate the King because he had ac-
cepted the proposition for international
financial ontrol of the revenues in or
der to arrange the war loan. This de-
cision, it further appears, was record
ed on the minutes of the club, a copy
of which was sent to the King, who
paid no attention to the threat. Later
Karditza said the plan was to shoot
the Kings coachman and the horses
and then to dispatch the King with
pistols, which he and his companion
were carrying.
King George has identified a photo
graph of Karditza as that of one of
his assailants. His Majesty has re-
ceived a message of congratulation
from President Mckinley.

In this section a good conduit system

and with additional power for other pur-
poses that may be necessary or deSlrdple.
As to the superiority of pure mountain
water over seepage from hat iands thdt

can be no division of opinion Whatever.
Almost every acre of the drainage areas
mentioned in the three foregoing propo-
sitionS is within the bounds of Govern
ment reservation, which important tact
guarantees that the water in such basins
is now free from deleterious substances
which are common in the water OF all
streams bordered with cities or villages.
or used a watering place for herds OF
domestic animals
One of the best evidences of the need
of pure water in this city is the fact that
the people of this city spend large sums
of money for bottled water that is sold
about the streets on simple recommen-
dalton for purity alone
In the matter of fire protection, either
of the propositions herein mentioned
would insure a fall of several hundred
feet within a few miles of the city, which
would give ample protection against de-
structive fires. A saving of less than half
of the amount now annually expended in
this city for fire service about $S1 .o00)
would amount to about $4,000 a year, or
per cent on an investment of $1,000. 900.
The latter sum would be nearly enough
to pay for the present water plap+ at the
value fixed by the City Engineer.
AS soon as the report was read a mo-
ton was made to adopt it. Council
man Toll was in favor of having the re-
port referred back to the committee
with instructions that it make a spe-
cific recommendation in favor of some
one source of mountain supply. Coun-
Gilman Nickel placed himself squarely
on record in favor of the adoption of
the report as it came from the commit
tee. without change. The other Coun-
cilmen took a similar stand. Mr.. Nick
ellis unequivocal position gave them
courage.
So the report was adopted without
change This is the most severe blow
the water company and the syndicated
press-the Times, Herald and Express
have had 1t is a victory for the people
and the San Francisco Cali.
