! MATTER FOR INVESTIGATION

FACTS published in The Call yesterday concern
ing allegations of bribery and corruption in con-
necton with the school supply contracts render
official investigation imperative The late Grand jury
in its final report declared that while the members
were morally certain OF corrupt practices the part
OF some Of the members Of the former Board OF Edit
cation, the Grand Jury unable TO frame indict-
ments against them because OF lack Of legal evil
dence. Better luck may attend effort to bring to
punishment the involved in the present scandal.
The evidence OF bribery in connection with the
supply contracts comes to The Call through the talk
OF OF the principal parties to the fraud. DR.. H.
f. Gedge chairman of the committee supplies has
admitted to at least one reputable citizen that agent
of firm intending to bid for the contracts offered
$1,000 for permission to inspect and make alterations
in the specifications OF the supplies called for; that the
offer accepted; that the specifications were
altered to give advantage to the firm; that the
money was paid and divided $500 going to Conlon,
another member OF the committee who was full
party to the fraud.
1t appears that Director W. A. Kemp, the third
member OF the committee was not aware OF the trick
that played out under his eyes, having been in
duced to let the scheme go through by his friend
Phil Crimnins and thus he received no share OF the
spoils. That part of the story may may not be
true for when interviewed on the subject Mr.. Kemp
meeting when the contracts were let, why he did
persist in his original demand that the contracts
be let to the lowest bidder
While the part played by Kemp may be involved in
doubt, there is the face OF the evidence clear case
against Gedge and Conlon, for as we have said it is
presented upon statements made by Gedge himself to
at least reputable citizen. Conon seems to have
agreed to the scheme when first proposed but left ii
Gedge arrange the details That the testimony
The Call has made public, and if fearless and thor
oughgoing Grand Jury enters upon an investigation
OF the subject there every believe that not
only moral evidence but legal evidence will be forth
coming sufficient to justify the indictment OF the
guilty parties
Official corruption is bad in any department of gov
ernment but it is most offensive to the public when
it occurs among men intrusted with the management
OF the public schools, There was a great dsappont-
ment when the corrupt members of the former board
managed to escape Indictment and the indignation OF
the people made itself manifest the next election by
turning them out of office That form OF punishment
however is sufficient. The desire of the commun

tiona motto OF Grant Let guilty man escape

The mining interests of the whole State

FRUIT IN THE ORIENT

ONSUL A B. JOHNSON in a report from
[ Annoy to the State Department gives some in
formation concerning the fruit trade in China
which may be worth while for fruit packers and
shippers study with 1t appears from his
statement it is fault that European fruit
dealers are getting the bulk OF trade that ought to be
almost monopolized by the United States.
Alter pointing out that there is large demand for
fruit in China and that the native crop has little
effect upon Importation by of the comparative
worthessness OF the fruit the Consul says: There
steadily increasing demand among the natives for
foreign fruits, whether canned, dried or preserved
The European population look to these imported
fruits almost exclusively to supply their tables.
Timed pears, peaches and aprcots come principally
from America, while preserved fruits, jams and dried
fruits still largely from Europe. The is
apparent. The American manufacturer will not, does
not meet the conditions required. Since there

The industry is booming literally from
Siskiyou to San Diego'-from Del Norte
to the desert. This is easiest realized by
the mining life reflected in the local
papers of every mining county. To one
familiar with the country press the con-
trast between the present and, not only
four or five years ago. but with year
ago, is very noticeable. The country
paper is, of course, always loyal to its
own and an exponent of present richness
Of resources and of future greatness In
its county. Not long ago there was be-
ing declared in all. in various forms, I'VE
nave the mineral resources and when

general prosperity take up several times

THE COMING YACHT RACE.

G INCE Sir Thomas Upton has been in this
y country he has won the favor Of the people and
- strengthened the already we'll assured belief that
the coming yacht will be free from anything in
the way of personal i'll feeling 1t is to be contested
in the spirit OF craftsmanship and there will be
nothing like the ugly Dunraven incident to mar the
enjoyment of the match whatever the result may be
An evidence of the friendly disposition of the cha
enger is afforded by the frank way i'll which he com
mented upon the complaints made by dissatis-
fed Englishmen upon the alleged interference Of
and other craft with the yachts 1T makes
me mad he said when | hear so much stress laid
on this excursion steamer trouble just as if such
things were unknown outside OF America We have
precisely the same trouble in our races at home
know of course that this habit OF excursion steamer
captains is bad business but | say unhesitatingly
that it prevented any English boat from win
ming the Americas cup"
Declarations of that kind have done much to make
Upton popular. 1t is clear have to deal with
big-hearted man, who has here to win the ia
trophy if he can, and not bubble little
things and lay the foundations for accusing us OF
fairness if he lose Such man is apt to hold as we'll
as to win the favor of Americans and it is safe to
say his words will make yachting authorities
more eager to prevent the interference of excursion
steamers with the race than would any amount 81
formal protesting and complaining.
1t is not possible to forbid excursion steamers
going to the race and when once out the open
it will not be easy to make them obey regula-
tons. The passengers the steamers will of
desire to be as near the yachts possible and the
officers will try to obge them The steamers will
have to avoid one another and all the other pleasure
craft and there is always danger of interference 1t
is to be hoped, however that extra precautions will
be taken to prevent any such occurrence We can
beat the British in yacht racing fairly and have de
sire to take unfair advantage. Our challenger
has to frankly and with spirit of cordial
good will and it is for us to meet him on that plane
