HOW DEPosIToRs ARE ROBBED.

c INCE the Union Savings Bank of San Jose
has closed its doors, and hundreds are mourn

opportunity for reflection. Why should such
calamtes be permitted? Is there nothing to safe
guard the people? Is the act of trusting in bank
simply the yielding to confidence game? Surely
there is something out of the when deposit
ors are swindled possibly ruined.
While the officials of this bank were throwing
money recklessly into schemes which promised no
returns; while they were loanng without security,
gathering the funds to do so by the most prohigate
discounts, Paris Kilburn, one OF the Bank Commits
sioners warming chair in Republican head
quarters, and nothing cared he for the fate of de-
postors. His duty, he conceived it, although he
drew pay for another, to throw his influence to
the election OF one Dan Burns to the Senate The
headquarters of great party prostituted to the
of Burns, and the influence of certain Republi-
cans, among them Kilburn, was prostituted to the
same end.
There could be but result While Kilburn
warmed the chair the bank progressed toward col
lapse, and when bank fails it means suffering to
many. All the affairs of this particular bank should
have been to Kilburn an open book, but he was
too busy to read. His ambition was set upon the
loftier scheme of sending this man Burns to the SEN
ate He warmed the chair, the bank kept on its
course toward destruction.
In China the officials of that bank would now be
headless. In than one civilized country they
would be on the way to penal servitude. In the
United States they do not seem disturbed, and the
commissioners who permitted their crime to develop
to the point of disaster display sign of remorse
The commission must be reformed. 1t was not de-

What are we to do with them? II we govern the

plunge into bloody war, seven or eight thousand

would be a bagatelle. If we annex these fourteen

CALIFORNIA AT THE FRONT.

IL OWEVER weary the California volunteers at
| Manila may have become during the long
dreary days of waiting that followed the occu-
patton OF the city, and however eager they may have
been to return home and their lives OF busy
occupation, may be sure all such feelings van
ished when the attack of the natives upon our lines
reused them to action and summoned them to battle
All reports from the Philippines unite in giving to
the Californans credit for distinguished galantry
during every phase of the fight. When our lines were
subject to CALLING fire from troop of natives for
titled behind the thick walls of Pace church Colonel
Smith saw the Importance of dslodging them, and
promptly ordered an advance. In carrying
out the orders Lieutenant Colonel Duboce
achieved at the head of small force what
perhaps the most daring deed of the day. Dash
ing the open in the face OF heavy fire. he and
his forced their way into the lower story of the
church, and by setting it FIRE compelled the
enemy to fly and abandon their point of vantage.
Again, when in the course of the action the Four
teenth Regulars were in danger of being cut off by
strong and overwhelming body of Filipnos, it was
the men of the First California who went to their
rescue and drove back the enemy. On still another
occasion Companies and NJ OF the regiment assisted
the regiments of Washington and Idaho in breaking
the lines of the concealed foe by charge which led
them across open rice fields, where they were fully
exposed to heavy fire.
Thus throughout the day the fortunes of the battle
assigned to the Calfornans the hazardous duties of
the posts of greatest danger 1t theirs to perform
the most conspicuous feats of valor in little
army full of brave men, all eager for distinction and
ardent to uphold the credit of their States as we'll
the glory of the republic. California at the front has
achieved another honor in the history of the nation
and from the whole State will go words of greeting
and praise for the gallant men and officers who won
it by the noble performance of dangerous duty.

The men who organized the Republican party and

Tracy in this State, with their splendid oratory de-

LIMIT THE RACING.

THE harm accomplished through the continuance
of racing the year around is marked and ex-
plicit, the crimes to which it has led-theft en-
bezzlement, murder and suicide-so familiar, that to
more than revert to them is super1uous Therefore
the opinion that racing should be restricted general
the only exceptions being among people who fatten
and batten the racegoer-the tout, the vagrant
with doubtful tip, the "bookie" and the speculator

has set forth essential If racing is to be stimulus
to the breeding of fine horses there be no obec-
ton to it, but when it becomes gambling game
wherein the scheme is the fleeing of the ever
present sucker, it assumes wholly different aspect
and is thing of evil with no redeeming quality.
Racing in San Francisco is but the pretext for milk
ing the public 1t possesses no element of sport To
sustain it requires many thousands of dollars daily,
and almost all of this comes from people who in
contributing if rob either themselves or their en-
ployers, and in either case court disgrace The pro-

Be Ready for Occupancy on
the First Day of

The Building Committee Of the Board
of Supervisors held a special meeting yes

ready to provide every accommodation re-
quired by the Judges in the Criminal De-

will be asked to specify their needs, which

signed them are too small and lack con-

the quarters assigned them. The Judges
are not above the law, and must abide by
The Building Committee heard num-
Der of interested parties at its session
yesterday. George H; Fuller, the success
full bidder, explained the matter of the
contract from his point of view, urging
the committee to stand by the award to
him. He said his bid was $4,000 below the
next bid, and that the city could never
obtain better terms.
Attorney Shadbourne, representing the
North End Improvement Club, devoted
his energies to assailing the stand taken

He contended that the board had author
