PLAN OF CAMPAIGN
FOR THE DRY SEASON

WASHINGTON, Sept 9.-GeneraI
Otis has been instructed in framing his
plan Of campaign for the dry season to
allow for the fullest participation of the
naval forces now in the Philippines
and as soon as he has been heard from
the necessary orders will go forward
to the naval commanders to cooperate
with the army to an extent not before
contemplated. The naval officers have
always been willing to do this, but
they have been restrained in their op-
erations by an indisposition to interfere
in any quarter with the plans of the
military commanders. The ships will
undertake to capture any of the ports
now in insurgent possession that may
be desired by the army, and also to
hold them indefinitely, thus making it
possible to open the railroad in Luzon
from the northern extremity, while in
Cavite province, with the large force
of marines now on hand, it is believed
that the navy can undertake to relieve
the soldiers tsationed there and make a
valuable force for other operations.

Effort Being Made to Put the SAM

Effect

PASADENA, Sept. 9-The State Anti
Saloon League whose headquarters are
at Oakland has begun a fight against sa-
looms and out-of-town roadhouses in
Southern California, using as it's weapon
the sanitary district legislative act. c.
Garibaldi who for years has conducted a
saloon a short distance outside the city
limits on East Colorado street, has been
chosen as an example. The citizens of
Lamanda Park, which is the nearest post
office, met and chose A. 1: Schofeld, j. w.
Hugus c. a. Day, w. T. Sibley and w.
A. Weymouth members of a sanitary
board, the district to be established if the
voters so decide at an election to held on
October 10. A majority OF the ballots is
necessary to elect.
said to believe that the district will be
established If So the sanitary board will
have power to grant or refuse a liquor Ii
cense and will close Garibaldfs saloon.
The proprietor believes that his saloon
will be closed and has tried to sell out.
Failing in this he has begun the erection
of a winery In the belief that no author
ity has power to prevent his selling his
own product, even if the city should ex-
tend its limits to include the winery.
The local Anti-Saloon League met re-
the State League and Lamanda Park
League. The State League agrees to bear
the expense attendant to enforcing the
law and all incidental expenses should op-
position be made.
Should the election result in establish
ing the district, work will be begun on
other districts in this part of the State
which have been mapped out by the Anti
Saloon League. The Lamanda district
will comply pretty closely with the cleo
ton precinct.
The citizens of North Pasadena have
acted upon similar lines as have the La

not yet been acted upon by the County

COMMENT ON

BERLIN, Sept 9-The Emperors
mented on. The Centrist Cologne Volks
Zeitung says the Catholics are thankful
his Majesty tries to avoid every con-
flict. The Vosssche Zeitung considers
the speech to be evidently a reply to
those made by Bavarian priest IN
Heisse, who said the throne and altar
could only be maintained by Catholicism
The Emperor reverses the proposition.
The Boersen Courier says it remains to
be seen whether the relations between the
Emperor and Catholicism will really be
mutual The Vorwaerts asserts that 1t
seems the Emperor returned from Pales-
tine with a heightened opinion or the
possible usefulness of the church, adding
1T is no longer the army and nobility he
asks to follow him. He now regards the
clergy also as an equally strong ally.
The .Tageblatt says, the Emperors DOC
means antagonism to Papal power.

Working Among Alaska
Indians.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

PASADENA, Sept. &C. c. Reynolds,
prominent business man of this city, has
returned from long stay in the country
about Kotzebue Sound, Alaska. Reynolds
and his party-a score of men-Were elaD-
orately equipped and built a steamer in
Kotzebue in which they prospected the
KoWak River thoroughly without finding
gold enough to warrant the stalking of
claim. This steamer, the Helen, was the
only one built in the sound. She is 10 feet
beam and 3S feet over all.
Mr.. Reynolds is a leading member of
the Friends church. While at KotZebue
he was on very intimate terms with Mr..
and Mrs. Robert Samms and Miss Anna
Hunnicutt, the three Friends missionaries
who went from Los Angeles and Whittier
two years ago and located at Blossom
Indians Despite the misgivings of friends
of the missionaries, who feared that the
Indians would not be found to be hos
great success. They have erected a school
building. where the Indians come in the
summer to trade with the natives from
to the Siberian Indians for skins OF rein
deer, which are made into clothes. They
are said to Ike kindly to instruction. The
similar to those of kindergarten teachers.
The English language is the first thing
taught Recently the missionaries, who
are without white companions, have built,
with the aid of a few Indians who stay
there the year round, steamer, with
which they visit the Indian villages on the
Kowak during the summer, carrying with
them balm for minds and souls.
The missionaries have great hardships
to contend with. Mrs. Samms, who is
only % years of age. was forced last win
ter to walk forty-ffve miles over snow and
ice while working among the Indians. She
has often slept out on the ice in deer
skin sleeping-bag. with the thermometer
80 TO 40 degrees below zero.
The Reynolds party left in the schooner
Penelope from San Pedro in May. 1898,
and only Mr.. Reynolds has seen civiliza-
ton since then. The other members of
the party are expected home some time
in the Kowak or Kotzebue country, but
have several claims near Cane Nome

NO ELECTRIC LINE

SAN RAFAEL. Sept. 81. A. McNear.
the Petaluma capitalist, denied to-day
that he contemplates the building Of an
San Pedro, to connect with line of
steamers to San Francisco, which would
compete with the Donahue road. Mr.. Nc
Near asserted that a boulevard should be
constructed from San Rafael to the point,
and that an electric line would follow as
a natural consequence; but 1t is entirely
improbable that he will do anything in
the matter at present.
So far as mere competition is concerned
the Donahue road has little to fear from

so great that a steamer would lose suffi-
cient time to make nothing on a through

MARQUETTE. Mich, Sept. 9.-The first
test of lifeboat equipped with power was
made here to-day and judging from the
tory Lieutenant Charles w. Mcclellan,
assistant Inspector of the Life-Saving
Service, was in charge of the experiment.
An ordinary thirty y-five-foot lifeboat had
been fitted with a twelve horsepower su-
perior gas engine. Under full power the
boat made a good rate of speed. During
the drill of the life-savers the boat was
rolled over and over and showed that the
presence of the engine in the alright
chamber in no way affected the ability of
the boat to right itself. The engine kept
running no matter what position the boat
was in. Up to this time lifeboats have
