although they may have earned his
thanks He wants nothing the
voters can give him, and he hest
tates to have his military record
made the basis of a political one.
In letter to Captain Frank War
rem, who commanded Company H of
the First regiment, and was a close
friend of the then colonel, Smith
writes that he will not run for Of
fee, and that he wishes his friends
to understand that plainly In his
letter he wrote as follows:
You may say for me that I am
out of politics and that I propose
to stay out. This is my fixed de-
termination and no friend of mine
knowing it will do me the dis
courtesy of showing his disbelief
by urging me as a candidate for
any political Office. I entered the
service from a sense of duty. I
am entitled to no reward for it

Won in War.

and claim none, except the per-
sonal satisfaction of being able to
say my service was not from sell
fish motives. Moreover, now en-
joy the friendship and good will
of all. 1t is pleasant to me to feel
that I have that friendship and
good will, and I will not permit
that feeling to be imperiled by
the bitter controversies incident
to campaign for public Office.
Any fame won by the regiment
belongs to it, not to me.
1t is a clear, straightforward de-
ciSion of a man who knows his own
mind and the ways of politicians.
General Smith can gain no higher
distinction in politics than he has
gained in the volunteer service, and
he values the one too highly TO risk
1T in pursuit of the other. He may
lose as candidate, but he has not
lost as a man.

WILL ESTABLISH A
SEMINARY AT BERK ELEY
Project Proposed at the First
Meeting Of Pacific Coast Bap-
fist General Convention

Taking advantage of the gathering of
Baptists in this city the ministers of that
denomination met and perfected an or
ganization to be known as the Pacific
Coast Baptist General Convention. The
first session was held yesterday morning
in the Young Mems Christian Associa-
ton auditorium, the delegates present
representing Northern California, South
ern California, Oregon, Utah, Washing

enrolment committee follow:

that institution. The officers of the uni
versity are friendly to the idea, another
denomination is already there and at
there next year. A strong point in favor
of this plan is its feasibility. BY avail
ing ourselves of the free instruction of
we may be able to open the seminary and
do good work, with two good men in the
faculty or with but one for time The
time seems ripe to move in this matter.
Support can surely be secured from the
large field presented here. In addition
to the advantages named for the plan,
there is this other consideration. 1t will
surround the great university with cor
don of theological schools, which will go
long way toward fixing the attitude of
that school as hostile or friendly to evan
gelical religion.

out of date, and that when Jefferson

The ground Of opposition to ac-

the we'll known fact that re would

homogeneous half-savage race which
could never be brought to condi-

government; and the tact that no
plan has yet been suggested to avoid
this insuperable barrier shows that
those who are opposing the aequisi-

the argument.

One Of the things it is certain that
the near future will bring, is an
Isthmian canal to unite She waters
of the Atlantic and the Pacific. The
mooted question has been and is
where and by whom shall the canal
be dug. The question is likely to
occupy prominent place in the de
bates in Congress this winter though
it is probable that the Administra-
ton would prefer that no definite
course of action should be adopted
until after next years elections.
The ostensible reason alleged will be
that the Commission appointed to
consider the subject cannot com
plete its report in time.
