born in adversely and, like most good
things, was crystallzed into useful

Its original objects were first Of all to
unfurl the banner of good citizenship
which had been buried in the dust and
dirt and corruption in San Francisco.
Next it was to better the material con-
ditions which then prevailed. But. bet
ter than all. it was to crystalline. to
strengthen and to organize ideals in the
business community. AS result OF in

some Pointers For Towns That Are
Growing Rapidly.
The advantage of laying out the
street plan in advance Of population
may be illustrated by reference to q
Brussels suburb, says Municipal Jour-
nal and Engineer. The city officials,
noting the steady growth of the town,
perceived that in few years houses
would be springing UP in this new To-
cality. Recalling the bad effects of
haphazard expansion and the great ex-
pense Of rearranging streets after
district is built up. they attacked the
problem in advance. with most excel
lent results. A beautiful park was
laid out with trees, fountains, statuary
and floral displays. Diagonal streets
with pleasing vistaS We're provided.
| Streets of generous width and we'll
adapted to rapid transportation follow
ed. Focal points were emphasized by
grass plots. with sites for monuments
or statues. Trees were planted along
many Of the less important streets as
! well as the boulevards. a new suburb
was thus planned from its inception
with comparatively little expense and
no Inconvenience to the public.
! The wisdom of adopting Il general
scheme which may be modified in de-
tail, as occasion requires. but which
will be planned in it's general features
| in advance Of urban growth. executed
as rapidly as possible and in harmony
with which parks will be constructed,
monuments erected, public buildings
| located and other structures provided,
Is evidenced by foreign experience.
There are continuity and harmony i'll the
various improvements, and the work
accomplished by each generation does
not need to be undone by Il succeeding
generation. Instead OF conflict each ad-
d.tional improvement adds far more
than indicated by it's cost. and the i'm
prOvements already carried out give
tone and character to the new work.
which would be lacking if there We're
no interGependence and if they had
been carried out in a haphazard way.

nate in their cary history as to have

FARMERS' CLUES.
Organizations That Help Build Up
and Improve the Town.

ana Improve the TOWN.
In parts of California farmers clubs
have been organized with results that
are more than satisfactory, says the
Home Trade Advocate. These organ
izations are purely Of local impor-
lance and are nothing more than the
association Of farmers of community
for the purpose Of mutual, social and
educational Intercourse.
Meetings are held weekly at the
homes of members and papers read.
addresses made and matters in general
OF interest to the members discussed.
Part of the evening is given up to
amusement, and good feeling in gcner
al prevails. Ideas valuable to the mem
bers are advanced, and in matters of
community interest all work together.
Farmers clubs can be made an i'm
portant factor in the development Of
the community. Where they have been
in vogue the fact is noticeable that
there Is more progressiveness and II
livelier interest is taken in schools and
oil public and semipublic enterprises.
There is less chance Of farmers of a
community where clubs are organized
becoming the victims of sharpers than
in districts where there is not such
close association, for as soon as one
discovers some irregular methods Of
| doing business or any fraudulent trans
action it is brought before the mem
bers promptly, and an end is put to
| operations.
Then the clubs work in harmony
with the business men Of the nearby
towns in matters Of town improve
ment. 1t would be well for farmers in
every neighborhood to form clubs as
here outlined. They would soon dis
cover how each one could be Of bene-
fie to the other and how all could bring
about reforms in local conditions that
would be highly beneficial to the COM
munity in general.

WHY WAS AMERICAN PARTY OR.
GANIZED?
with apologies to Tribune.)

Senator Thomas Kearns, of Flo
pony" and Isle of Alaska" fame, or
ganized his personal political forces
two years ago and dominated the city
convention to the extent of placing in
nomination a solid Kearns' ticket. The
ticket was defeated at the polls, for
the simple and very sufficient reason
that Republicans would not stand for
such a fragrant attempt at individual
bossism. This is why No. 1.
Still Senator Thomas Kearns
worked diligently throughout the ear
ly days of the campaign last fall and
up to 10 o'clock a. m. of the day of
the state convention, in an attempt
to again assert that individual bossism
which had been so ruthlessly sat down
upon the year before. The attempt
failed This is why No. 2. And then
it happened.
There is really nothing more to
tell; but. now that we have riveted
the attention of our readers, we will
continue his little storyette from day
to day and endeavor to introduce
enough new features TO make 1t inter-
esting. Since the date of the events
chronicled in the opening chapters Of
this narrative, there have been num-
Der OF new characters" introduced,
among whom can be mentioned Frank
]. Cannon. This character" we will
endeavor in future numbers to show
up as one of the leading why's" Of
the aggregation.

Every effort to elect Lynch drives

The American" party leaders are
renegades from every political party,
batch of "eXs" soreheads and agi-
tators who have been retired for the
good OF the public service and are
running a campaign of hatred, re-
venge and ruin. They are against the
national administration, against the
state administration, against the city
administration, against everything
and everybody that will not submit
to their corrupt dictation. No loyal
citizen, with self-respect can afford to
line up with the Kearns American"
crowd. The only way to get rid of
this political viper is to vote the Re-
publican ticket.
The battle cry of all honest loyal
citizens, irrespective of party or
creed, should be beat the Kearns
gang with Lynch.

OF the COCal vote, Cno democrats II
per cent, the Americans" % per
cent. the Socialists, per cent. There
has been nothing since then to disturb
the normal condition between Repub-
licans and Democrats. If there is any
change it is gains to the Republicans.
The stronger ticket with which to
beat the Kearns crowd is undoubtedly
the Republican.
1t would require that 1000 Republi
can votes be transferred to the Dem
ocrats to bring up the Democrats to
where the Republicans now stand
which is an impossibility. The CON.
mon enemy, the Kearns Americans
must be beaten by the Republicans.

The game of the Kearns "Ameri-
cans" is to keep the opposition divid-

they would have an easy victory. Will
you people who want to conquer the
common enemy play into their hands?
The only possible way to defeat the
enemies of the state and city is to
vote the Republican ticket.

such a declaration? 1t is worthy of
the Kearns-Cannon aggregation.

Rice Industry of the South.

In 1904 the United States changed
from a rice importing to rice export
ing country. In 1893 we imported 49,.
600 900 pounds of rice and exported,
$4,000, 900. In 1904 our exports OF rice
increased so per cent, our imports de-
clined 20 per cent, and the figures
were: Exports, 3S,OO0,0OO pounds; i'm
ports, 100000. For 1905 the figures
will be even better.
The encouraging feature is the find
ing of a foreign market for our rice.
There Is no limit to the amount we can
raise if there is market for 1t, but
the price is unsatisfactory II we overpro'
duce, for the home market is very lin
tied. II we can arrange to ship any
considerable portion OF our crop

and Texas will have nothing to fear in

Celebration of Birth.

The birth of a child among the
working class in Cumberland, Eng

and is still, celebrated by the making
of mixture called "rumbatter." Its
ingredients are butter, sugar, rum and
spices, and it is really palatable COM
pound. Every person entering the
honse where birth has taken place is
offered taste for several weeks after
the event. 1t is an insult to the child
and its parents to refuse the proffered
dainty, and not TO proffer it is consid-
cred equally discourteous.

Food of Rats.

No place is sacred to the rat. From

is nothing which he will not eat, Rats
have eaten their way through a live
pig and bitten off the legs of living
birds Some years ago the keepers of
the London geological gardens could
not understand what made the ele-
plants so restless, so uneasy on their
feet. Investigation showed that at
night the rats came out and gnawed
off the thick skin growing about the
nails on the monsters feet. Apparent
ly they must have fancied the horn of
the rhinoceros, too, for regularly the
keepers used to find flattened rats
where the rhinoceros had been lying.
