Il may be asserted without fear of successful
contradiction that nowhere else in recent years
has there been as fine example Of eonstrue
tive stasesmanship and wise and upright admin.
istration has been given by the civil au.
thorities, aided by the army, in the Philippine
islands We have administered them in tho
interest of their own people; and the FiIipinos
themselves have profited most by presence
in the islands; but they have also been Of very
great advantage to as a nation. So far from
having Slapped tho foundations" Of free popu-
lar government at home by the course taken in
the Philippines, we have been spreading It's
knowledge, and teaching its practice. among
peoples to whom it had never before been more
than an empty name.-(Presdent Roosevelt.

on Fourth OF July

A movement is on foot, fnsugated
by the toy pistol committee OF the
California Club and Of which Mrs T.
J. Johnson is chairman, 10 educate
citizens 10 the danger OF the toy pistol
and all explosives in the hands OF
minors In view of the near approach
Of the Fourth OF July celebration
every effort is being bent toward
reaching not only parents, but those
who sell explosives. in the hope that
caution and advice may have good
effect in the matter
The toy pistol committee IS
armed with alarming statistics culled
from the Journal OF the American
Medical Association, showing the ex-
tent Of the injuries sustained through
the use OF explosives last year
Mrs Johnson speaking for the COM
mittee, says that there Is "a city Ordl-
nance here against the sale Of toy
pistols and explosives TO minors un-

Board of Examiners Secures a War
rant for Arrest of Optician
In This City.

The first arrest under the new law
passed by the last Legislature ap-
pointing a board Of optometry and
empowering it TO examine opticians TO
determine their fitness was made yes
terday afternoon. The law provides
that all optometrists doing business in
the State must pass an examination
before the board of examiners, which
consists of F. c. Chinn and Henry J..

Monterey.
I. Povelsen. who conducts an Op-
teal establishment at 1888 Market
street was the defendant in the ac-
ton. The warrant was sworn out be-
fore Judge Conlan and according to
the mem bers Of the examining board
in optometry was made largely as a
test case. 1t is thought that in the
event of a conviction the case viii be

Restraining Order Against
Napa Insane Asylum Man
ayers Issued by Seawell
CITED TO SHOW CAUSE
Accusation Made That They
Rejected Lowest Bid for
Supplies for Institution

The board of managers Of the Napa
State Asylum for the Insane has been
temporarily restrained from granting
TO Wheaton. Pond & Harold contract
for supplying butter, cheese and eggs
to the asylum for the ensuing year
The restraining order was issued yes
terday by Superior Judge Seawe1. upon
the application of Louis Titus who is
acting as attorney for the A l. Lundy
Company, dealers in produce and pro-
visions at 121 Davis street
The complaint is a lengthy one and
in effect alleges that awards for the
supplies for the use Of the Institution
were granted TO Wheaton. Pond & HaT-
old. although this firms bid was corl-
siderably higher than that made by
the A. L Lundy Company for the
same products
The complaint alleges that the A.
l. Lundy Company submitted a bid for
furnishing butter. cheese and eggs 70
the asylum previous TO June Is, on
which date the advertisement said the
bids would be opened. Subsequent to
that date an award was made TO
Whea ten, Pond & Harold. As a cOnse-
quence, it is claimed the State viii
lose more than $4,000.
The managers of the asylum are re-
quired TO show cause before Judge Sea
we'll on Tuesday next why a permanent
Injunction should not be granted
against their making a contract with
Wheaton, Pond & Harold Plaintiff :
Attorney Titus states that the case VIII
be pushed unTelentingly. Already he
has secured permission from the At
torney General OF the State to proceed
against the board of managers in the
name Of the a l. Lundy Company and
assistance may be given the complain
ant from the legal department Of the
Sf4te
