Letter from President Brown.

The CALIFORNIAN published last week
a full report of the proceedings incident
to the presentation of cane to Man
ager Turner and in the report was let
ter from the committee representing the
employees to S. N. Brown of Boston, the
president of the corporation. Mr.
Browns reply to the committee will
therefore be of especial interest and is
herewith given:
Boston, June 8, 1908.
Gentlemen
1t is with much pleasure that .ac-
knowledge your letter OF the 1st inst.
The board of directors of E. & T. Fair
banks & Company desire most heartily
that all those associated with us in our
business shall share in whatever favor
able results may come to us, and, while
the present movement is, to degree, ex-
perimental, we shall hope that the in
creased vigor of nine hours labor will ac-
complish such results as will make no
loss to the corporation by the change.
1t is quite fair to say that, with the
competition of other manufacturers in
| our line, IN this country ana ABROAD, anu
with the disadvantage OF our distance
from the sources of supply OF our heaviest
materials, which affects the cost of the
same and the very heavy charges for
freights to and from our factory, we do
not receive the profit from our united
labor which would be agreeable to all OF
us. We are greatly pleased, however.
that you take the same view OF the
whole situation that we desire to do,
viz: las already remarked), that we
shall share, stockholders and employes),
IN whatever results come from our hearty
and cooperative efforts.
Very truly,

Pumpkins May be a Drug.

Woodstown, N. j.. July 31.-Unless
there is different situation next fall
those who have planted pumpkins in
South Jersey this year and the acreage
is double what it was last season will
wish they had titled the soil different
ly. Last year Gamers put up millions
of cans of pumpkins, believing they
would sell readily, and farmers got
their own price. almost. Very little
of this stock is said to have been
moved in the big cities, as people
could get the whole pumpkins, which
would keep in the cellar as well as
canned.
This year many growers added sew
eral acres to their allotment of last
year, and as neither droughts nor
floods hinder the growing, there will
be an immense crop. Thus far there
have been no buyers in this section
from the Gamers, and it is feared that
pumpkins will be a drug on the mar
ket next fall.

Jersey Convicts Now in Gray.


Trenton, N. j., August 2.-Three
hundred of New jerseys State con-
viots donned their new uniforms for
the first time to-day, light gray suits
having been distributed to portion
of the prisoners to-day. This is the
beginning of the third and last i'm
portant improvement in prison govern
ment that Keeper George o. Osborne
has inaugurated since he took charge
of the prison, and when all the con-
victs are fitted out with their new
uniforms the last of the old-time Gus
toms at the prison will have disap-
peared.
The 800 ray-suited convicts wore
their new uniforms for the first time
to-day at the religious services, con-
Quoted by Mrs. Ballington Booth, of
Salvation Army fame. The convicts
wearing the new uniforms were given
seats in the front rows. With the
abolition of the lock step, the custom
of closely cropping the hair of the
convicts and the stripes, the New Jer-
sey prison will be on a par with the
up-to-date penal institutions of the
country.
There will be no change in the
prison garb of the women convicts.
which will remain blue gingham.

PRIMARY ACT
CHANGES TIME.

The new primary law which will be
thoroughly tested all over the State Of
New Jersey this fall makes many
changes in political conditions, and
the people who look after political
affairs are carefully studying all of
the provisions Of the act.
There was some suggestion that the
Democratic bosses of Hudson county
would knock out the law by carrying
it into Court, but there will be no
decision in time to interfere with the
aot this fall.
The following table will show how
the Republican and Democratic Con-
ventlons will be made up this fall, so
far as the delegates are concerned.
