not be expected to furnish the town
with light at loss, and should not
be asked so to do.
A moderate reduction in light on
the lines laid down, doing away with
the day police, and a judicious and
careful supervision of labor expended
on public improvements, would result
in a saving of approximately one
thousand dollars. An amendment to
our charter by the legislature to meet
next winter empowering the town
authorities to raise the rate of taxa
tion to seventy-five cents on the
hundred dollars would bring in an
increase of at least $1,000, which
amount added to the saving just men
toned would provide us with up
wards of $4,000 of revenue not now at
our command. This would enable us
to carry on our work and provide an
adequate sinking fund to meet the
payment of bonds already issued.
The municipal ownership of an
electric plant has been discussed by
many, and if such could be reached
at reasonable outlay the profit now
accruing to private parties would be
a saving to the corporation.
These are subjects that will be
brought forward at our citizens meet
ing on Friday next, and we trust they
will be fairly and carefully considered.
AS probably the heaviest taxpayer
in our community and an enterpris-
ing business man, deeply interested
in the future of Oakland, we feel sure

THE INTREPID Col. Fred Funston,
who is fighting at Manila and whom
some people have been unkind enough
to compare with another western COL
onel who didn't do any fighting,

people at home will lie awake nights
worrying about the ethics of this war,
thinking that our enemy is fighting

These shops are to be constructed on

an advisable thing for the people of
Oakland to at least tender the com

VIRCHOW ON VIVISECTION.

Prof. Rudolf Virchow, of Berlin, the
great German scientist, has published
a defense of vivisection, under ade-
quate supervision, which ought to set
tie the question for reasonable people.
He points out that, the archaeological
origin of disease being once admitted,
experiments upon living animals be-
come indispensable to investigation.
The smallest growths, perceptible only
by the microscope, often engender the
most deadly poison, but their effect
can only be ascertained by the inoc-
ulation of a living organism DIR. Vir-
chow further shows that for the study
of antidotes to bacteria poisoning like
experiments are absolutely necessary.
If human life and healthy existence
are to have all the benefits which mod
ern science can offer, the practice of
vivisection is the imperative condition.

MOMSEN.

Theodor Momsen, who recently cele-

just completed book on Roman GRIM

that he is at work on the fourth vol
ume of his History of Rome" cover
ing the period of the early empire
The statement is probably inaccurate,
as Momsen has repeatedly said he
would never write that volume, the
reason given being his repugnance to
reading up the early Christian theo-
logical works dealing with the period.
