The result of the election in
city Tuesday is highly fattering
to the anti-saloon element. Not
only was the vote OF last year
against license sustained but
gain of II was recorded. Last
year the majority against license
in the city was los. This year
it reached 122. The Fsrst Ward
cast twenty more votes against
license than it did last year and
the Second Ward made a gain of
4 votes. The Third Ward cast
the same number of votes against
license but cast z more votes for
license. The sentiment against
saloons is manifestly keeping
pace with our increased popula-
tion which practically assures
that the city will continue to do
without saloons.

The republican members of the
Supreme Court in their disagree
ment over the appointment of
clerk of the court manifest a
weakness that would do discredit
to the ward politician. For several
months they have retained rank
politician of the opposition as
clerk, simply because there is a
candidate in each of their re-
spective home districts that are
applicants. II. G. Lindsay, the
chairman of the republican state
central committee is the only
candidate that should be con-
sidered. His appointment would
meet the general approval of the
republicans of the state, while
the appointment of either of the
other applicants would only
satisfy a small faction. Harry
Lindsay's splendid work in putt
ing the party on its feet in the
state is worthy of recognition by
even the Supreme Court, as with
out the success the party attain
ed under his leadership, neither
Judge Sedgwick or Judge Barns
would be occupying their exalted
positions today.

Contracts are written for s50O0O
each and a person can take from one
to one hundred of them. The money
paid on each contract, before the loan
is made, is credited 10 the contract
holder, making the amount to be paid
back to the Society, after the loan is
made, that much less. When the con-
tract holder secures his loan, he Of
course gets possession of any house,
lot or farm he chooses to buy and for
which the Society Will pay spot cash.
when a party applies for loan, he
pays the membership fee Of $4.00 for
each $500.00 he applies for, which is
credited to the Expense Fund; his con-
tracts are then put on record in the
regular order and then the contract
holder pays $40 per month on each
$500 contract until he gets his loan.
After he gets his loan he pays the So
society has loaned until he has re-
turned to the Society the full amount
they have advanced for him. He may
pay as much more than $4.40 a month
as he chooses, thus paying off his loan
in a much shorter time.
"When a contract holder is entitled
to loan we pay spot cash, thus en-
ab1ing the members to secure a bar
gain and incurring no liabilities which
unforeseen contingencies might make it
impossible to meet on the installment

the Home Fund except on approved
real estate security.

up $4,000 to that end. One of them

Portuguese and Natives investing in a
Concern of Doubtful Standing.

By the next mail to San Francisco
enquiries will go forward from several
banks and business concerns regarding
the Equitable Underwriting and Trust
Company, Gnc.,) which a new local
company advertises as guarantor of
its business. The local company, THE
Cooperative Home Purchasing soci-
ety." P. E. R. Strauch, Manager, has
been doing an extensive trade with
Portuguese and natives during the past
couple of months. These people have
paid into it a considerable amount of
money for the purpose of ultimately
securing loans with which to build
homes. AS some of these natives, IN
der the plan of the society, may not
secure the loans promised them for
several years and some considerable
amounts of their money will be in the
custody of the Society" during the in
tervening time they have naturally
looked for the. guarantor that their
money will be safe in such hands. The
Society turns out to be a. co-partner-
ship consisting of but three partners.
The trust company, which is backing
the Strauch company, is either not
very we'll known, a new corporation,
or a corporation which is hiding its
light under a basket. No local bank
or commercial house among a number
seen yesterday could give the Adver-
tiser any information concerning it
and, although the concern advertises
as ''The Equitable Underwriting and
Trust Company of San Francisco, Cal,
Incorporated" no such name as that
appears in the 1903 San Francisco di-
rectory. The corporation hopever may
