NATIVE DAUGHTERS AT STOCKTON.

{ TOCkTON this year has the honor, the glory
and the JOY of welcoming the Grand Paror OF
- Native Daughters and eXulting in the extension
OF hospitality TO guests whose very presence is in
spiraon. That all the ceremonies and festivities OF
the occasion will be successful in every respect goes
without saying, for Stockton is one of the comuni-
ties where Californian hospitality is best exemplifed,
and the Native Daughters know not only how to ap-
preciate welcome but how to augment it by the
grace with which they show that appreciation
Few institutions in the State are more conducive to
the general welfare than the organizations which
bring the youth OF the commonwealth into close as
ISOLATION for higher purposes than those OF social
amusement and enjoyment 1t is essential to the de-
velOpment OF every new community that public SEN
tjment should be formed into what constitutes the
character OF the public creating, were. code of
manners, morals and honor, which the better ele-
ments OF society appeal in the contest with the
forces that tend to disntegraton and corruption. 1t
is the existence of such public sentiment among the
people OF the New England States that has given
those small commonwealth so much prestige in the
intellectual and moral life of the nation and when
popular sentiment in California is equally strongly
formed the influence OF this State will be greatly in
creased
The association OF earnest energetic and influential
young women in such an organization as that of the
Native Daughters helps immensely in the work Of
developing such sentiment and fashioning what is
to be the character of California society as whole
The members OF the organization are therefore well
deserving OF the highest praise and honor that can be
given them In their association they are doing good
service to the community and merit for their work
well for their grace and their beauty the homage

THE CANAL PROBLEM.

c ECRETARY HAY has announced the names Of
the members of the commission appointed by
- President Mckinley to determine the most
feasible and practicable for an sthmian canal
II is said that whole the commission is regarded
as very satisfactory in Washington All the members
reported to be in favor OF constructing the canal
and is thought they are inclined to the Nicaragua
route, though it is added inquiry may change the
minds OF some of them"
Whatever may be the views taken OF the subject by
majority OF the commission, there is one at least
who IS not sanguine of the outcome Lewis NJ
Haupt, civil engineer, and one of the two Pennsy-
vanians appointed to the commission has already de-
clared conviction that the investigation is
simply another means OF providing for delay in the
work. He maintains the various routes have been
thoroughly inquired into and that nothing new of
value be added to the information now in the
hands OF the Government.
The opposition to the canal, says Mr.. Haupt is
powerful and active. 1t never rests. 1t is composed
OF many elements. Among its forces are the trans
continental railroads, the Panama Canal Company,
certain European interests represented here by what
Mr.. Haupt calls "a technical commission composed
Of British, French German and other engineers" and
last but not least, Great Britain acting as Govern
ment. and seeking to prevent the opening of route
which would endanger her commercial supremacy in
the East
Either OF these forces acting singly is sufficiently
strong to make dangerous opposition to the great
enterprise, which in itself is one OF such magnitude
that many people hesitate to approve it When united
they make antagonism well fitted to venture upon
the task of battling the wishes OF great people, and
consideration OF it as Mr. Haupt declares SIS al
most enough make despair"
According to the reports from Washington there
is belief the work OF the commission will require at
least years, but there is added the statement the
President desires the commission shall submit re-
p during the next session of Congress in order that
action may be taken toward the construction of the
canal If such be the intention Of the President the
work of the commission hardly be more than
perfunctory visit to Panama and Nicaragua fol-
lowed by report based upon examinations already
made.
1t IS not easy to perceive why such new report
should be deemed necessary when is already in
the hands of the President from the Walker commits
sion There is, however CLEAN of hope in the lat
ter statement, and possibly far from leading to
procrastnation, Mr.. Haupt fears, the new COM
mission may be of service in fastening the undertake
ing of the great enterprise.

RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT TO
PHELPS MEMORY.
Adjournment Quickly Taken Out of
Difference to the Late Regent.
Members to Attend the
Funeral in Body.

Out of respect 10 the memory of TIM
othy Guy Phelps, the members of the
Board of Regents of the University
of California adjourned their meet
ing after a short session yesterday after
noon. Before doing SO, however, matters
of moment were considered and disposed
of. The chair that has for many years
been occupied by Acting President Phelps
was filled by Judge Wallace, who called
the meeting to order After the minutes
of the previous session had been read and
approved the regents took cognizance Of
the death of Mr.. Phelps. A committee
composed of DR.. Pardee. A. S. Hallidie
and Albert Miller was appointed to draft
resolution Of respect, which when adopted
are to be presented to the family of the
late regent It was also decided that the
members of the board attend the funeral
and to-day they will leave for San Carlos
on the noon train and pay their tribute
to the memory Of their fellow regent.
A number Of bills amounting to $35,933
were examined approved and ordered
sum includes $22, 634 10 to pay for the Will
merding school site. The matter of pur-
chasing the lot from Alvinza Hayward,
Addison f. Head and John z. Mason has
been under consideration for months and
yesterday the deal was cOnSummated.
The property is Immediately opposite the
Lick School, and in deciding on its pur-
chase the regents took that into consid-
Grafton. The contract for the erection Of
the school buildings has been let and as
soon as the bond is approved the con-
tractor will begin work. It is expected
that the buildings will be ready for oc-
cupanCy by November next, as every pos
sibe effort will be made to hurry the
work The lot presented by citizens of
this city to the regents of the university
for the erection of the Wilmerding school
or other uses will be disposed of shortly,
as the board has no immediate use for 1t.
Had it not been down in a hollow it
might have been used for the purpose de-
sired by its donors. The site opposite the
Lick School was purchased for economi-
cal reasons The regents expect to re-
nearly 20 per cent.
Principal Schwartz. who will have
charge Of the Wilmerding school, is in the
East purchasing machines and tools for
equipping the school. The regents de-
ferred all matters until their next meet
ing and adjourned until Friday at 10
