DIVINE TALKS
OF CRAFTERS

"A Grave for Grafters" was the post
election prelude to an evening sermon
delivered in Simpson Memorial Metho-
dist Episcopal Church last evening by
the Rev. James H. n. Williams, the
pastor He said:
Grafters and public corruptionists in San
Francisco have been given notice by the pub
lie not only OF its disaDproval OF dishonesty
cal burial Law and order and public de-
ceucy have simply trfumphed at the polls IN
the reelection OF Judges Seawell Murasky
Trout and Kerrgan. Not only are these
Judges to be congratulated on their election.
but the city and State are 70 be congratulated
the rule OF the people and inspire hope for the
future.
The newspapers are TO be congratulated also.
It has been demonstrated that the press is
not only a medium for the circulation of the
worlds news and a channel Of advertising.
but that il Is also a great factor in molding
and directing public thought and action.
The Gail and other papers, almost without
6I,tre and ren1d5afe these faIss and unworthy
leaders, went to the ballot box and magnifi-

All honor TO the press the leagues. the asso-

no time 70 rest on our oars. Sleep Is not in or
der. Activity is demanded.
The preliminary victory is a strong in
centive to further endeavor until San Fran
cisco is as proud Of her city government as
she is OF her geographical situation and her
growing commercial Importance.
There is encouragement IN the hard blows
graft and public corruption have received in
other places Good citizens Of all parties will
rejoice over the election OF Joseph ". Folk as
Governor CT Missouri
All OF this Is gratifying to the patriots and
lovers OF good government. for the spectacle
OF great cities in the hands Of corrupt Off
oials VIGOROUSLY guilty of graft misnanage-
ment OF public affairs and violation of oath
is doing much to destroy the claim made by
the New York sun q few years ago that If
anything has been demonstrated beyond the
possibility Of cavil. II is that the American
can be trusted to govern well.
Let san Francisco become a leader in good
government by turning out the mischief work

in the temple, and by putting in men OF hon

He said last night:

MAN OF MEANS
IN PRISON CELL
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SAN JOSE, Nov. 13.-George E.
Letcher a well-known capitalist, aged
about so years, was arrested here to-
day on the charge of being a fugitive
from justice from Williams County.
Ohio 1t is charged that he was in
dicted a year ago by the Williams
Grand Jury for the crime of arson.
The complaint upon which the police
acted came from State Fire Marshal
Davis, and was supplemented by in
formation from Attorney c. G. Nagle
of San Francisco, from which il ap-
pears that Letcher's accusers charge
him with being the ringleader of a band
of conspirators whose speciality was
arson. 1t is alleged that Letcher also
destroyed a residence Of his in Tulare
for the purpose of obtaining the insur-
ance.
The man who first made the accusa-
ton against Letcner in Ohio has since
then, according to a statement made
by Letcher tonight. committed suicide.
Letcher has a son, a dentist in San
Francisco. His bail is fixed at 10000
Attorney Charles G. NagIe, who has
been instrumental in locating Letcher
said last night that the crime with
which the man is charged is that of
arson. 1t was committed in the State
of Ohio about ten years ago. but
under the Ohio State laws arson is not
dealt with in the statute of Hmita-
ton, therefore a suspect can be tried
on a complaint filed at any time sub
sequent to the commission Of the
crime.
When I was in Baltimore a short
time ago." said Nagle, Il met /. d.
Davis. Fire Marshal of Ohio. In that
State the State Fire Marshal has
charge of all arson cases. He. ap-
pointed me special attorney to look
into the matter, with authority to
cause the fugitive's arrest. 1 was told
that the man was one Of a gang of
four or five who had made it their
practice to swindle insurance COM
panies. They had been operating for
twenty years and are said to have also
been involved in an arson case in Cali
fornia.
'Letcher went to China last Febru-
ary from here. He was Obliged to
skip out as the authorities were look
ing for him. He grew bold and came
back to San Francisco and from this
city he went TO San Jose. where he
went into the business of renting out
nickel-in-the-slot machines. He has a
son there who is we'll to do: I think
that this sons name is Clarence.
Letcher's divorced wife lives in Rerke>
ley. He is a dangerous criminal and
has long record behind him."
