AS in. the old days. all roads led to
Rome, SO now, in the country west of
the Rocky Mountains all roads lead to
San Francisco This city of 100000
inhabitants is already the metropolis
OF region greater in extent than the
Roman empire and destined by reason
OF its location and the magnificent
harbor upon which it lis situated, to
become another New York. The devel-
opment and extension of our trade re.
lations with Asia is contributing
nightly to this end, and the growth
OF San Francisco is constant, continu-
GUS and all but phenomenal. While the
isthmian canal when completed will
bring the cities on the Atlantic sea-
board into far closer touch with the
Asiatic trade than they are at present
yet the building of this canal will not
hinder or Gtard the growth of this
great and truly magnificent western
metropolis. The difference between a
resort for tourists and great city is
clearly manifest when one leaves Los
Angeles and goes to San Francisco.
Without detracting any from the pro-
gressiYeness and solid worth of Los
Angeles, for it is a remarkable city,
yet the fact remains that it chiefly
made by the 100000 tourists who come
to 1t annually. To go on to the streets
OF Los Angeles is. to meet tourists at
every step. That they are tourists. is
self evident. These same tourists all
90 to San Francisco, but there they
are absorbed in the mass of the resi-
dent population and unless one goes
Into Chinatown. it is difficult to pick
cut a tourist from the citizens. San
francisco is in fact metropolis con.
dition that is recognized as soon as
one enters the city.
Leaves Los Angeles With Regret.
1t was with genuine regret that the
party OF which was one, turned away
from delightful Los Angeles. Our
ten days sojourn at this point was
but taste, which gave us an appetite
for q stay three or four times as long.
and which brought out from each

member of the party an emphatic dec,
laration that they would come again
II possible. Indeed we find that it is
dangerous for man to take his fami-
ly to Southern California in the win
ter time. There is an infection in the
atmosphere which is only enhanced
by the warmth and sunshine. Having
once experienced its pleasures, pater-
familias might just as we'll capitulate
at once and agree that the family shall
come here every season. The great
aim of the railroads is to get eastern
people to make their first trip to Cali.
fornia. for they know that in nine
cases out Of ten. these people are
bound tc come again.
An Ideal Resort. !.
From Los Angeles, it is a. delightful
ride of four hours. mostly along the
shore Of the Pacific Ocean to Santa
Barbara. Santa Barbara is an ideal
resort, situated as lit is on the Pacific
Ocean with long stretches of gently
sloping sand beach, with the noun
tains Of the Santa Ynez range rising
directly in the rear of theatown. Santa

and finest hotels on the coast; with all
the advantages Of sea air and sea
bathing, mountain climbing and noun
tain driving, tits one OF. the charm
ing spots in California. Having tarried
so long in Los Angeles, we had but a
day and one-half at Santa Barbara,just
enough to emphasize the resolution to
the effect that the next time we so to
California, several weeks are to be
given to this charming place.
California is a state of magnificent
distances. From Los Angeles to San
Francisco is almost 500 miles. The
trip from Santa Barbara to San Fran
cisco requires ten hours and is beau
tiful one. combining as 1t does, both
ocean and mountain scenery. 1t is a
daylight ride over the splendid roadbed
of the Southern Pacific railway which
will be greatly enjoyed by all tourists.
At Santa Barbara is located one of the
interesting old Catholic missions which
were established by the order of Fran
ciscan monks during the latter part
OF the eighteenth century The mis-
sion at Santa Barbara was founded
December 4, 1886, and is still occupied

STATE WILL PAY THAT SUM TO
VALLEY JUNCTION
MEN.

Des Moines, March 16.-Ten thous.
and dollars or approximately that sum,
will be voted by the present legislature
for the benefit Of DR.. c.! B. Fountain
and a. Hoch of Valley Junction, whose
wives met death in the elevator acct.
dent at the state house month ago.
No claim will be presented for any
sum, according to present plans, and
the matter will be taken up voluntarily
by the appropriations committee, in
conjunction with the governor The
report OF the appropriations committee

less include the sum indicated for the
bereaved husbands and there will be
no vote in either house against the
appropriation.
Two Sides to Case.
Emery English, member of the house
from Polk county, a resident of Valley
junction, says he has been advised
that the governor and others who
heard the testimony are of the opinion
that there was insufficient evidence 10
hoid the state in a legal proceedings,
as Mrs. Hoch is alleged to have been
guilty Of contributory negligence in at.
tempting to board the car and it is
undisputed that her daughter, Mrs
Fountain, voluntarily exposed herself
to the danger which caused her death
in an effort to rescue her mother. But
this does not matter as there is
no waV by which tho state nav H., ouad
and any payment of damages must be
voluntary. There is another side to
the case, however, as indicated by the
coroner's report, and that is that the
elevator and its conductor, were chief.
-ly responsible. Under the circum
stances; the governor and other
officials, as well as the leading mem.
bers of the appropriations committee
in the two houses, including Chairman
Garst of the senate committee, are
agreed that sum should be generous
ly offered, $4,000 being the amount
generally agreed upon.

has been in the grasp of a policy craze
and has found a justice, F. e. Duncan,
who had the nerve" to raid the shops
and close the games. There were two
of the shops and both were entered
by officers at the same time. At one
the people who conducted the game
had received warning and made their
escape, leaving a few habitues only,
but at the other there had been no
warning and the whole outfit was
taken.
Mayor Was Slow to Act.
: The game, it seems. had been going
on for two or. three weeks and though
the mayor made an order that it should
be stopped he was not obeyed, Finally
when it was taken up by the news
papers and the fact that nearly half
the people in the down town district
were paying their money for policy
slips was made known, Justice Duncan
took a hand and arrested a dozen or
more of those connected with the
shops.

WANT 0TIU N v A N.
MAJOR A. II. HAMILTON is URGED
FOR 6. A. R. COMMANDER.
NAME PROPOSED BY AGENCY POST
Election Win Take Place In June att
Annual State Meeting in Mason City!
Major Hamilton Especially Fitted,
and Deserving Of Honor.

The candidacy Of Major A. H. Hamil-
ton for state commander of the Iowa
department of the Grand Army of the
Republic which was announced in the
Courier of last evening is to be made
known to the various G. A. R. posts of
the state in a letter prepared by COM
mittee selected from Cloutman Post at
Its regular meeting held at headquar-
tiers in the court house Monday even
ing. The letter which is to be mailed
to each OF the posts in the state briefly
states the qualifications of Major Ham
ilton and asks support for his candi-
dacy.
The G., A. R. posts of Ottumwa are
among the strongest in the state, yet
they have never been recognized or
honored with the position of highest
honor in the state.
1t is generally conceded in Grand
Army circles that the next department
commander is to come from southeast
ern Iowa and the members of the local
and neighboring posts consider that
now Is an appropriate time for an Of
tumwan to be selected.
Senator s. H. Harper was first chos-
en- for the honor but at the meeting
Monday evening a communication in
the form Of resolution was received
from the Agency lodge suggesting the
name of Major Hamilton and asking
the support of the local posts in fur
thering his candidacy. Major Hamil-
ton was highly satisfactory to the 10
cal G. A. r. members and his cause
was enthusiastically taken up. A
committee was named to prepare let
ter to the posts of the state announc-
ing the candidacy and asking support
for the Ottumwa man.
The record of Major Hamilton is of
the best. He is well and personally
known to every Grand Army man in
this section Of the state. He is high
ly respected and almost revered by the
local members of the order. The fact
that his name was suggested from a
post outside of Ottumwa has shown
that his fitness for. the office is recog-
nized and appreciated by others than
the Ottumwa members of the order 1t
is also a source of satisfaction and of
added strength to have the initial sug-
gestion of his name for department
commander come from another post
and another town.
The Agency Resolution.
The resolution from the Agency post
suggesting Major Hamilton's name to
the local post was as follows:

FEAR FOUL PLAY.

Friends of Burlington Man Think. He

is limited at by the brother of John
Pierson, the milkman living west OF
this city on the Augusta road, who dis
appeared since last Friday night 1t
is also said that he may have fallen
into the river, as when last seen he
was in an intoxicated condition. But
the supposition of foul play is held by
his brother, Charles Pierson, who says
that John Pierson showed a lot OF
money to crowd in . West Jefferson
street saloon when drinking heavily
last Friday night.

Upon His Arrival In Washington.

Washington, D. O., March 16.-Con-
gresham Hull, upon his arrival here
from Des Moines, was given an ova-
ton. His committee room was turned
into a reception room and was filled
during the entire day with visitors who
called to offer their congratulations to
the gallant Iowa congressman upon his
recent victory in Polk county. Captain
Hull was overwhelmed with the recep-
ton. He called at the White House
and was warmly congratulated by
President Roosevelt, while the Presi-
dent was assured that Iowa will stand
strongly for him.

New Use Fo1. a Telephone.

A new use for telephone has just
come t. our notice, ose that we have
never before heard of. One night last
week Il. r. Robinson, who Is on the
Denison rural line noticed that the
house of his neigh Dor, VIM. Cock, was
on fire aud thinking of the phone at
oaca telephonec to him. Mr. Cook and
family were just starting their evenis g
meal and rushed out to find the roof on
fire about the chimney, and soon pat
out the blaze. Had they not been noti-
fled ia this manned or had MIR. ROBIN
son taken time to go,over to MIR. Cook &
house the fire would have had time 10
consume the whole roof. AS it is Mr..
Cook, by having in phone, was saved
the probable loss of his home. Vail
