HARMONY ENDS
HER LONG REIGN
Dissension Rends Ranks of
California Exhibitors at
st. Louis Worlds Fair

ST. LOUIS. Sept. 1.-THE Republic
to-day says: The first dissension in the
ranks of the exhibitors at the Worlds
Fair from California, who have hereto
fore worked together in such perfect
harmony that they have been termed
the best "hustlers" at the exposition.
arose when they read the published
statement that Southern California
dominates the entire State and that it
was Southern California that seemed
to be doing the cOmmemoration of Cal
ifornia day. Indignation ran so high
yesterday that certain members of the
California County Commissioners As
sociation requested President Colvin B.
Brown to call meeting of the organi-
zation in order that they might express
their sentiment. The result of such
meeting probably can be foretoId when
it is said that among the California ex-
hibitors are twenty-five counties from
the northern and central parts of the
State to six from the southern district.
THE Righteousness of this statement
is attested by the table printed in the
report of the California State Board of
Trade on the shipment of fruit out of
the State by rail in 1904" said one OF
the northern district exhibitors yester-
day This table shows that Northern
and Central California shipped 9947 5
cars of green deciduous fruit, as
against 1861 from the southern section:
2246.5 cars of citrus fruits, against
their 27,715.S; 12,S59.3 cars of dried fruit,
to their 1O24.S; 3752.6 cars of raisins, as
compared to their 1911; 365 cars of
nuts, as against their 5000 carloads.
and 1898 carloads of canned fruits, to
their S77.2
This gives Northern and Central
California 3964.3 more carloads and A.
6429 tons more than the shipments
from Southern California In addition
to this we shipped 506O.3 carloads OF
wine, as compared with their 194.5, and
3473 carloads of brandy as against
their s. OF wine and brandy not segre-
gated. We beat them by 670.8 carloads
of ten tons each.
I'VE claim a greater water supply
for irrigation purposes" continued the
Northern Californian. 'Sacramento's
annual average of cloudless days was
232, to 165 for Los Angeles. Northern
and Central California produced 2,OoO,-
900 cases OF fruit packages in 1900.
against 200, 900 from the southern part
of the State In production Of coal we

living voice to-day, on it's hundredth
birthday it would tell of the great
earthquake of 1872, when it's rafters
were wrenched and its arches pitched
out of plumb, and the neophytes went
screaming into the patio calling for
help from the Holy Mother. And it
might tell of the rain of arrows that
SCARED its face in 1924, when the In
dians from PuriSima and those from
the mountains bore down upon it, on
destruction bent; and of how tn friars
and the mission guard bravely defend
ed the sacred place, until relief came
from Santa Barbara, when the Indians
were repulsed, leaving sixteen good"
Indians on the field.
In this confiict-the largest that ever
took place in California between the
Indians and the gente de razon (people
of reason, therefore the white peo-
ple'O four hundred natives were en-
gagged. The Spaniards, who numbered
one hundred, lost one of their brave
band in the defense of the sanctuary.
With military honors. he was laid to
rest in the churchyard under the hill.
Then in 1886 came the comisionados,
with their decree of secularization.
With a large sweep of the arm of
Mexican might the mission of Santa
Ynez was no more. And with the
passing of the birds in that fateful
fall so too went the padres back to the
cloisters in Mexico or in Spain, to
pday and weep for the children they
loved but lost.
Still the old church stands to-day to
tell the tale of a century. And in that
century the flags of three nations have
waved over it's domain. And it has
seen the passing of the two peoples who
gave it birth-the Spaniard and the In
dian.
So too has it known the passing of
the days when life was as a prling
stream. flowing gladly through flower
ing meadows on to the sea.
Thus the century passeth. And to-
day will these things be told within
the sanctuary blessed with a century's
incense.

SEEKING THE CUSTODY

Members of Missionary Society Say
Nee Ho Is to Be Married
Against Her Will.

Mrs. Carrie G. Davis, superintend-

Women's Home Missionary Society of
the Methodist Episcopal church, has
applied for the guardianship of Nee
Ho, a 16-year-old Chinese girl.
In the applicati ton it is alleged that
Nee Ho lis now held in the custody
of Jun Kun, a Chinese, her godfather

her to one Tong Leong against her

Dubbed on the Head.

Primo Torroni, proprietor Of a sa-
loon and dance hall at 32S Pacific
street, was arrested yesterday after
noon by Policeman Joy on a warrant
from Police Judge Mogan's court
charging him with assault with a
deadly weapon. The complaining wit
ness, John d. Barn, a cook, says that
he was in Torronis saloon on
Wednesday night and had some words
with an Italian. The bartender struck
him on the face and Torroni came up
behind him and struck him twice on
the head with a club, knocking him
unconscious. Fourteen stitches were
put in his scalp at the Harbor Emer-

One hundred years ago to-day the
mission Of Santa Ynez y s planted in
the Wilderness Of the West
One hundred years ago to-day two
friars Of St Francis-Frays Jose
Gutierez and Jose Calzada-with a
motley group Of soldiers and a brace Of
weary mules wound their way from
the Mission OF Santa Barbara into the
valley that lies in the arms of the Santa
Ynez mountains. At the foot Of the
purple hills they halted-these pilgrims

Soon cross was builded from the
arms Of a live oak, a bell was flung
over a stout branch, purple incense

chant OF mass told OF the founding Of

missions OF Santa Barbara on the south
and La Purisima on the north.
With a few primitive tools the friars

its inception. was but a rude wooden

\, The American people, particularly
the thinking class that appreciates the
dangers to- which a prominent figure
is subjected in making long trips and
passing through great crowds, will
breathe a little freer to learn that
President Roosevelt has completed his
trip to the fair in safety and reached
his official home at Washington. 1t
will be remembered that it was just
such trip that cost President Nc
Kinley his life in 1901. Receiving the
greetings Of an apparently orderly
and admiring gathering Of people, the
president was shot down by hair
Drained paranoiac, and in the twink
ling of an eye the nation was prostrat-
ed with the knowledge Of another as
sassination. There is in every great
crowd, gathered anywhere in city
so cosmopolitan as any city becomes
during great exposition, every ele-
ment that goes to make up the COM
PICK sum or human llfe. Inc element
of Unborn rage against authority is al
ways present and needs only opportu-
nifty to assert itself. No precautions
are sufficient to render harm impossi-
BILE to president or ruler in such a
gathering. just at the present time
there is every reason to hope that
President Roosevelt shall be spared,
during his term, any effort, even, at
harm to him. In good time, perhaps
the American people will come to ap
! precfate the dangers Of these unusual
T travels, and delegations, however well
meaning, should remember that they
are taking 4 tremendous responsibility

eastern funmakers should! make light
of Mr.. Casey's lonesomeness in the

seen a photograph of Mr.. Casey since
we wrote our reflections upon his un-

to think now that he will be an orna-
ment to the legislature, no matter
how marooned he may be in the mat

is this: If North Dakota, in the wis
dom of it's historians and scientists,
chooses to elect one democrat to the

becoming extinct like the great aux,
it has the right to do so and it is no
