ing last might. :. a .petitfoIfs to the
Assembly praying for passage of The
Brooke wheelway bill was unanimouay
adopted. -
The Wheefway Committee reported
that in addition to theadestgrc spf
the Thirtieth- street cross path, between
NJ and r streets, by drivers of vehicles,
the same agencies had now completely
destroyed the path on Thirtieth street,
between ] and x. The committee adj
vised that riders desiring to reach the
Folsom wheelway should go out K
street to Twenty-eighth, thence to ],
and out to Thirty-first and the head
Of the wheelway.
The special committee on the ruined
Thirtieth-street path reported the ex-
tent of damages, and said it would
cost 500 to repair it. The path is. a
sidewalk, and belongs to the city. The
committee was advised that the Trus-
tees would Immediately restore the
walkway and plant posts at the cross
ings to prevent teams driving on it
hereafter.
Custodian Hubert reported that he
had visited Folsom, going over the
path and found the high waters had
settled and rendered the Alder Creek
bridge unsafe.
Chairman Bennett said the Wheel
way Committee looked to the Folsom
people to care for the bridge and the
path from Alder Creek to Folsom. His
committee would Immediately have re-
pairs made where necessary on the
path this side of Alder Greek to the
city. Between Brighton Crossing and
Perkins Station he reported that the
county path built by the Supervisors.
at a cost of $780, had been trespassed
upon by teams driven to it by the road
conditions, and was, damaged in two
sections, and ought to be repaired. .as
It makes a break in the twenty-five
mile line.

that by its adoption the world would
know that the Legislature of Califor-
mia had set its seal of condemnation
upon the bringing of convict labor into
competition with free labor. 1t was
agreed at that time that the bill should
be passed on file, but later on it was
brought up out of order, and the fight
resumed.
knights of Sacramento offered an
amendment adding to the clause 'sfor
country roads only the words for city
streets, lanes and alleys" Anderson
vigorously opposed this, and was in the
midst of his objections when a tired
bill went over as unfinished business.

the two assaults on the rock crusher

were passed on file, and then came up

Valentine opposed the wording of the
bill, believing that it would make it a
misdemeanor to use box, can or bottle
a second time, even after party had
purchased it. He Illustrated this by
saying that it would prevent people in
Los Angeles County from using empty
coal oil cans to pack their honey in.
Johnson remarked, with patient resig-
nation, that If the bill really would
prevent the .Angelenos from putting
their honey into coal oil cans he be-
lieved it ought to pass. He said he
knew his friends from Los Angeles
were very smooth and oily, but he
hadn't realized before what made them
so. He proceeded to explain, still with
the same exaAperated air of tolerance
and patience. that the bill had passed

PRECINCT PRIMARIES.
Anti-Ringsters Score Victory Over
Machine Republicans.

After several months of scrapping, the
anti-ringsters of the Tenth ward have
been granted the concessions asked in
the matter Of precinct primaries. This
was decided upon at meeting of the
Ward Association held Wednesday even
ing.
There was naturally some opposition to
the granting Of precinct primaries to the
anti-ring people, but the majority Of ring
people said they saw no harm in deciding
in favor Of precinct primaries by way Of
experiment
Several weeks ago Mr. Flavel MCGEE
appeared at meeting of the Ward AS
sociation and offered a resolution favor
ing separate primaries. The resolution
was laid over. 1t was taken up on We'd
nesday evening and passed almost unani-
mously. Mr.. MCGEE was present and
spoke in favor OF the precinct primary
plan.
The only evidence of row arose over
a resolution which provided for the elec-
tion officers and places of primaries. An
amendment was offered, substituting the
name of Boyd Mclean. an anti-ringster
for ring man. The amendment was
lost, as the ring people wouldn't stand
for Mclean.
Third, Fourth, Fifth and Seventh pre-
chosen for two-year terms. OF these
the ring hope to win eight, as there Will
be opposition In every precinct. Hot con-
tests are looked for. At present the ring
has a majority of eighteen to five. There
are thirteen h0ldoyerS.

NICE ROW EXPECTED.
Republican Committee Will
Decide Tonight on Wool
ley's Successor.

A new trouble has arisen which will
probably cause serious delay in the COM
pletion of the new No. 20 Public School,
on Danforth avenue. Contractor English
notified, on Wednesday, Director George
Witt, who is supervising the erection of
the school, that he could not furnish the
Boston brick, which is to compose the
exterior front wall. at the price specified
in the contract. The walls have been
erected to the second story.
Director Witt ordered work on the struc-
ture suspended until the matter iSsettled,
which will probably be at the nextx meet
object in suspending the work was to
avoid a possible settling of the walls,
which might occur should the rear and
side walls be further advanced than the
front wall
1t is not known definitely on what
grounds Contractor English refuses to
furnish the brick specified in the contract.
The present delay will prove a great an
noyance to Greenville residents who are
extremely anxious to have the school
completed. AT present the children OF that
section are compelled to attend sessions
in the improvised school in the Minkakwa
Club house and School No. Is, on Dwight
street, which is over mile distant from
School No. 20. By the present arrange
ment the pupils of each school can only
attend one session of four hours each
day. This state of affairs has existed
since last spring, when School No. 20 was
destroyed by fire. The taxpayers of that
section are extremely anxious that School
possible in order to relieve the children
of the many inconveniences.
