and to all who delight in that which goes
to make community happy and contented.
Municipal government that is based such
lines is the kind of municipal government
favor. It is the sort of administration I should
like to give our citizens. should they make
me their Mayor. Such an administration would
be credit not only to our city as whole,
but would shine example to be fol-
lowed by every progressive community In the
State. Let cast out all of the lttleness.
the petty things. the meannesses and work FOR
Oakland. On that sort Of platform one can
stand and say to his fellow citizens: isHeIp
us to accomplish something for our homes and
our business interests.
II has seemed to be a part of a political
campaign to rail at everything in sight It
has seemed to demand that candidate for
public office should denounce all existing con-
ditions going to the dogs That to my
mind, Is ridiculous and what is more. Is moth
ing but cheap gallery playing Oakland Is
not going to the dogs" And even were il
true, no good purpose could be served by
bowling the 1amentable fact to the four cor
ners of the earth. Let US have a little con-
structive campaigning. Let US be happy.
Make the best Of opportunity That is what
I shall try to do for the city Of you make me
your Mayor.

the origin OF life are contained in two
volumes. advance copies OF which
came to the library of the University

The scope and character of the work
are indicated by the preface contribut-

made. The preface is, in part, as fol-

city with their arguments. Hundreds

ABOUT KINIRY
Prosecution Makes Strong
Points Against Man Who
Is on Trial for Murder
HAS MUCH TO EXPLAIN
Admissions Made by Defend
ant to the Police Place
His Head Within Moose
Oakland Office San Francisco Call,
l016 Broadway, March 10.


1016 Broadway, March 10.
Two damaging points were brought
out against David Kiniry to-day in his
trial for his life for the murder of Po-
liceman j. H. Smith on the evening of
November q, 1903. Both of them tend
to show that 1t was he and not Joseph
GolGstein who fired the murderous
shot.
The first was in the dying statement
of Smith, that was taken down in
shorthand by Eugene Van Court, in
which he said: ''One of the two men
suddenly stepped back and fired two
shots at me; / then pulled my pistol
and shot the other man. He had the
beardless face of a youth and was as
tail as /. | did not get the one who
shot me-"
Another point was the finding. of a
loaded weapon near where Goldstein' 8
kins and former Policeman Lee An
drews testified to finding the pistol ly-
ing on the grass, about twenty feet
from the dead robber.
From the admissions already made
by Kiniry to the police that he and
Goldstein were bent on robbery when
overtaken by Smith, he has virtually
admitted that he was guilty OF muir
der. The courts have held in like cases
that the murderer and accessory are
equally guilty.
Kiniry's fight, however, Is to evade
hanging and Attorney Frick is trying
to show that while his client may be
guilty of robbery, or by implication
of murder, he did not actually do the
shooting.

Peter McCOlgan, a Saloon
Man Who Received $1,000
Recently, Is Found Dead
and Money Is Missing
POLICE THINK THAT
MAN WAS MURDERED
Detectives Find No Trace
of His Movements Since
He Had the Coin and His
Partner Has Disappeared
Oakland Office San Francisco Call,
10l6 Broadway. March 10.


1915 Broadway, March 10.
Under circumstances that have called
for police investigation, the body Of
Peter McColgan, formerly one Of the
proprietors Of the Venezia Gardens, a
resort at 572 Seventh street. was found
lying face downward this afternoon in
the mud at the eastern end Of Tenth
street, near Fallon. w. d. Steele,
a passerby, saw the corpse and
notified the Coroner, who removed the
partly 0ecompOsed remains TO the
Morgue. Papers on the body disclosed
the identity
What has set the detectives at work
is the fact that five weeks ago Nc
COlgan received a large amount of
money, not less than $1,000. for his in
terest in the saloon in which he and
Charles Moore of II Turk street. San
Francisco, had been partners. When
the body was searched only 81 so in
coin was recovered. The police could
find TO trace Of McColgan's where
abouts since he went out Of business
and they cannot explain whether his
death was the result or accident or
foul play. There were no external
marks Of violence on the corpse. 1t
was suspected that possibly Mccolgan
had wandered into the marsh while
under the influence of liquor, or was
inveigled into the lonesome district and
murdered for his money. At any rate
the coin has not been accounted for,
nor have McCOlgan's movements since
he sold out been followed with any
defniteness. He and Moore had been
in business together at the Gardens for
some time. When they decided to give
up business they found a prospective
purchaser in the person of Charles
Fischer, with whom negotiations were
concluded five weeks ago. Fischer said
to-day that he had paid $1,000 to Moore
and McCOlgan, each of whom took his
own share out Of the proceeds of the
sale.
Fischer declared he knew nothing
about McColgan's habits nor where he
had gone after surrendering possession
OF the resort Up to that time he had
been residing there. The body's ap-
pearance indicated that McCoIgan had
been dead about ten days. Deputy
Coroner Quellen. who searched the
clothing, found some keys, the coin
and among other papers pronissory
note for $500 made in favor of McCol-
gate by Edward S. Clark Of Arden
Station, which is small railroad point
on the narrow gauge line, two miles
west Of Newark. The note was dated
last year, some time before McColgan
disposed Of his business in this city.
Another mysterious feature Of the
case is that Charles Moore has also
disappeared. He has not been heard
Of since McColgan drifted out of sight
People at IL Turk street say that both
partners disappeared at about the
same time.

The cases of Victor Gazzole, engineer,

media local train that cut two sections
of fire hose last night at the Pacific
Lumber Company fire, First and Clay
streets, were continued to-day In the
Police Court pending further action by
Chief Engineer Ball OF the fire depart

caused the arrests because this was
the third time engines had cut his
hose while 1t was in service at fires.

of the hose the department was help
less in the face of flames that threat

declared the engineer had ample warn
ing and that Gazzole had admitted he
saw the crowd when his engine was at
Brush street. where he slowed down,
four blocks west of where the hose
crossed the~traek.
Two sections of hose, each fifty feet
long, were destroyed. Persons who did
not disclose their identity made over
lures To Chief Ball to-day to stop pros
ecution provided the damage done was
covered by payment to the city for the
ruined hose Chief Ball said he would
agree to that course, as he had no de-
sire to do more than tc protect the de-
rartment in such cases. He cOntended
that if the hose had been cut five min
utes sooner a great mass Of shingles
and a, large barn warehouse would
have been attacked by the fire. The
supply Of water from the two lines was
shut off from the fire at a critical time.
The firemen were compelled to un-
couple the severed sections and remove
them before they could renew their
streams.
1t was asserted by the trainmen that
their view of the hose was obstructed
by the crowd. Rail- asserts signals were
