SOUTHERN PACIFIC ORDERS
ITS TRACKS PATRoLLED
Great Precautions Taken Against
Danger From Landslides During
Wet Weather.

With heavy storms come landslides
The Southern Pacific Company is taking
extraordinary precautions this winter to
prevent wrecks and accidents through
washouts or defective tracks.
The accident to the eastbound overland
during the early part of this year has
caused the railroad company to adopt a
more vigorous system of patrolling it's
tracks to see that the rails and roadbeds
are kept in perfect condition.
Assistant Manager Foster said yester-
day that during the wet weather the
tracks are being patrolled by a double
force and that the chances of an accident
are not more than under ordinary circum-
stances.
A slight amount of rain fell in San
Francisco and along the coast to the
north yesterday A high wind, which at
tained a velocity of thirty miles an hour
and which carried with it a heavy rain,
swept the Sacramento Valley Outside

likely to continue so through the day.
Forecaster McAddie predicts southeastern

SIX COMPANIES
COLLECTS FUNDS
Compels Chinese Passen-
gers on Doric to Pay
Tribute.
Money to Be Used to Defeat
Passage of the Exclu-
sion Act.

The Chinese Six Companies has COM
menced determined fight against the
re-enactment of the Chinese exclusion
act 1t is endeavoring to raise fund for
the prosecution of the fight. A few days
ago the Six Companies caused proclama-
tions to be posted on the dead walls of
Chinatown requesting the Cinnamon to
make contributions to the fund. 1t is
understood that the wealthy Chinese
merchants are subscribing literally and
that already a very substantial amount
has been secured. -
The vigor with which the Six COM
panies intends to carry on the fight for
Unrestricted Chinese immigration is well
illustrated by the manner in which it
levied a tax on Mongolians yesterday. The
Doric, which was the first vessel to leave
fight, sailed yesterday. She was sched-
uled to carry in the neighborhood of 200
Chinese. When the hour of departure
drew near and the Chinese began to ar
rive representatives OF the Six Com
panies made their appearance on the
dock. They stopped every Chinaman and
compelled him to contribute toward the
fund. Not a single Chinaman was al
lowed to escape payment of the tribute
unless he could show a receipt as evil
dence that he had already contributed.
The assessment was light, not over SO
in each case. In most cases the Ori-
entails subscribed freely, but some proved
reluctant to part with the coin that they
had earned in this country and were car
rying home to China.
In the proclamation which the Six Com
panies issued it did not designate how
the fund is to be used in accomplishing
the defeat of the exclusion act, but there
is a well defined rumOr to the effect that
it is to be expended in removing any feel
ing which Eastern people may have ad-
verse to the admission of Chinese.

Doll Show was gratifying to the

maple room of the Palace presented a
novel appearance. Dolls of all lands

the lay figures in the collection the doll
that will represent this State in future

Miss California is a beauty. She typi-

State. She possesses all the graces that
the far-famed girls of this State possess.
She has auburn hair, large eyes of mid
night blackness, peaches-and-cream COM

a pedestal in the center of the maple

the offerings of the nobility and of other
cities must bow to her supreme majesty
Miss California is yet to be christened.

dress of white chiffon, with corded bands
of yellow silk. The bottom is trimmed
with yellow velvet. The waist is de-

BURGLARS REAP
GOLDEN HARVEST
Robbery Of Dwellings in
Mission District
Continues.
Midnight Providers Have Sew
eral Narrow Escapes
From Arrest.

A gang Of daring burglars has been on
Grating in the Mission district for the
past week, and not a night passes but
one or more burglaries are reported at
the Seventeenth-street police station The
police are now considering. the advisa hill
ity of placing a blockade in the district
after midnight, as all of the burglaries
reue tied have been committed in the
early morning hours.
The burglars first commenced opera
lions on San Jose avenue, between Twen-
ty-secOnd and Twenty-fourth streets,
and ransackeo several dwellings. They
next moved down TO Treat avenue and
robbed a residence near TWenty-fourth
street THANKSGIVING night they broke
into TWO dwellings on the same avenue
between TWenty-ffth and Twenty-siXth
streets ana carried off a lot Of valuable
property. In one Of the houses they over
looked watch worth $50 and a heavy
gold chaln- The watch was on table
near bed, and It is supposed that the
cracksmen feared TO awaken the occu-
pant Of the room if they made too thor
however, TO spill the contents of the
drawers Of q bureau over the floor while
looking Tor money and 5ewelry. The night
following Uney tried 10 gain an entrance
10 a fat on TWenty-fOurth street, below
FOLSOM, but awakened the occupants and
were forced TO beat a hasty retreat.
Early yesterday morning the induStri-
Gus burglars were discovered while try
ing 10 force an entrance to cigar stand
near the railroad depot, TWenty-ffth and
Valencia streets. They again escaped
and an hour later broke into the resi-
dence Of Mrs Catherine Daley at 1886
Howard street. Mrs. Daley awoke while
they were in her bedroom, and when she
called to her daughter they ran through
the kitchen and out into the back yard,
having opened the kitchen door before
they commenced to search the house.
That all Of the burglaries have been
cQmnitted by the same men is evidenced
byS he fact that in every instance en-
trance has been gained through a kitchen
window or door. All of the houses that
have been robbed run back to an alley
way, so that in the event of discovery
the burglars ran less risk of being caught
by disappearing into the alley than by
being forced into the street, where there
was danger Of encOuntering policemen.
The police feel satisfied that the men who
gave Sergeant Duke and Policemen Prem
oergast and Young lively run early last
Sunday morning are the burglars. The
men were seen leaving an alleyWay run
ming of Twenty-fOurth street, above Va
officers started toward them. Several
shots were fired after the fugitives who
managed 10 get away the heavy fog pre-
vaillng at the time being favorable TO
their escape.
Policeman Brown arrested suspect
yesterday afternoon and took him to the
SeVenteenth-street station. where he will
be held pending an investigation. The
man in custody is believed TO be one OF
the burglars. He fits the description
given Of q night prOwler who was seen
in the neighbOrhOOd of one of the houses
robbed.

THE REMEDY IN THE HANDS OF
THE PUBLIC.

1t is especially gratifying to notice
the change in public sentiment con-
corning yellow journalism and radical
political utterances. The tragedy of
President McKinley's death has OPEN
ed the eyes of many to the truth of
the effect of partisan utilization and
unjust SANDER such has heretofore
been resorted to by the extremists OF
both parties, especially the partisan
press. Such publications and utter
ances serve to inflame the ignorant
and to inclte violence where no good
result can be obtained. Political rev.
olutions and reforms can best be made
through the influence of reason and
conversation. Extreme and radical
changes are never healthful because
they must necessarily destroy existing
conditions, and in the havoc these rad
ical changes make there will be more
or less suffering created by the him
drance to business and the oyerturn-
ing of financial and commercial inter.
estS.
The brazen utterances of partisan
chiefs and the shameful publications
of yellow journals may not have in
cited the dastardly deed of Czolgosz
but they inflamed the ignorant re-
ceptive public mind and created con
dition of discomfort which could no,
otherwise have prevailed. The best
remedy for this unhappy state of af-
fairs is to discontinue such detrimen
tai influences by ceasing to follow bla
tant leaders and to stop reading vel
low journals. If these influence
caused the death of our president tn,
public has been to blame for their ex

A DESPlCABLE COMPARISON.

No surprise should be felt that
paper edited by man with legisla-
tive record such as Daniel Mcdonald
says Metsker's isshould set up the in
decent claim that Mckinley and Goe-
bel are twin martyrs.
Goebel drew and secured the passage
of partisan election law which, to
use the words of one of his followers,
cleft nothing to chance" and which
the state organ of Kentucky demo-
cracy deplored with all the invectiye
its brilliant editor could command.
The state of Kentucky was convulsed
to the point Of revolution with the
indignation of free citizens robbed of
the ballot. An assassin, never yet
identified, slew Goebel.
1t is no palliation of the dastardly
crime that Goebel was an enemy of
free institutions and an honest vote
and was SO declared by a possible
majority of his own party in the STATE,
neither could the deed be justified by
personal enmity coming down through
Goebel's stormy career in which he
himself had committed manslaughter.
No man had more or bitterer enemies
than he.
The criminal should have been
found and hanged but the democrats,
aided and abetted by the dead man S
own brother, used the tragedy to
smirch republican officials and bolster
up visibly waning cause; they were
far more eager to hound Governor
Taylor than to run down the real cul.
prit, for that event would have spoil.
ed their political game. There was
no such thing as a fair trial possible
for the accused republicans and q
democratic judge said so from the
bench. The assassin may never bt
known but it is well to remember that
no attempt was ever made to faster
guilt upon any one of hundred bit
ter personal enemies of Goebel in BIZ
own town, several of whom had open
| ly threatened his life. He knew hi
danger and was never unarmed

the proceedings differing in no respect
from those daily observed in ordinary
criminal trials. All this took place
in spite of the fact that the entire
country has been and is yet aroused
to the fullest extent by the despicable
act of g. man who hates and defies all
law Seldom i'm all the world has
summary vengeance been so justifi-
able as now; never anywhere has a
court conformed more closely to the
requirements of law.
In the meanwhile, the government
continues without shock or Interrupt
ton in any department, notwithstand-
ing the shock and grief suffered by
every individual citizen, and there is
no talk or hint of constitutional weak
ness or insufficiency. The American
form of public administration has sue
cessfully withstood supreme test and
its perfect stability has amazed the
most accomplished statesmen of Eur
ope. The mob rules and lynch law
prevails occasionally at times of in
tense local excitement, even in this
enlightened country, but the Czolgosz
trial has demonstrated the safety and
permanency and dignity of our in
stitutions and indicated the majesty
of our laws.
