Brete Harte.s Prediction.

In the following poem the late Bret
Harte, who wrote probably more than
any one else on California, predicted
some time ago a disaster O"erwhelm-
ing San Francisco which is of timely
interest on account of the Golden Gate
City's recent devastation:
FATE
Copyrighted by Houghton. Miffiin & Co ]
The sky is clouded. the rocks are bare:
The spray of the tempest is white in the
air:
The winds are out with the waves at play.
And 1 shall not tempt the sea today.
The trail is narrow the wood is dim:
The panther clings to the arching limb.
And the lions whelps are abroad al play.
And I shall not join in the chase today.
But the ship sailed safely over the sea,
And the hunters came from the chase In
glee,
And the town that was buildod upon a
rock
Was swallowed up in the earthquake
shock.

WhOop and Hurrah Popularity.

Popularity which has TO depend I'D
on some strenuous effort to keep it.
self before the people every day can
not be but short lived Mr.. Roosevelt
has done many commendable things
since he became president and should
have full credit. But he also has done
many things which are absolutely in
defensible and should shoulder full
blame. No friend of his would defend
all his actions and no enemy should
condemn them all. OF late he seems
TO be trying the patience and loyalty
of his friends to the utmost, even try
ing to do some really commendable
things. His apology for. if not open
and heartily approval of, the killing
of the women and children at Jolo
has caused his enemies to take stock
of his actions since he became pres
ident and ask themselves what he has
really done for the good of the Amer
lean people
Ii was said in a public speech in the
senate recently that he Numbered in
the index and fizzled at the finish .
which being interpreted means that
he promises much and does nothing
1t will be remembered that he and
Taft, his obese secretary of war an
nounced they were going to buy ships
for use in the construction of the Pan
anna canal wherever they could get
them cheapest This was hailed with
delight by all democrats and good cit
liens Bat the republican managers
and campaign contributors raised
such a howl and made such dire
threats that he receded from his posi-
ten and paid nearly million dollars
more for ships here than he could have
obtained them for abroad.
His appointment of Paul Morton TO
a portfolio in his cabinet was in the
face of those who knew him TO be to-
tally unfit While he was still in that
position it was proved that he, while
an official of the Santa Fee railway, was
giving great rebates to shippers in di-
rect violation of law. Public clamor
against him became so great that he
saddIof him off unto the Equitable
Life Insurance company as its presi-
dent. and gave him clean bill of poll
teal health which was the quintes-
sence of outrageous political indecen-
CIV. He in thunderous tones denied in
bitterest language that the republicans

Speaker Cannon recently wrote TO i
friend at East Liverpool, Ohio, pre-
dieting revision of the tariff schedules.
In a newspaper interview the speaker
says that he did not write that letter
for publication. although he has no OBJ
lection to its being made public. He
says he does not believe a majority of
the people at this time desire to inter
fere with present conditions, but that
the time will come when a general re-
vision will be entered on He says
that democrats insist on immediate re-
vision of the tariff, and adds: IF Il
majority of the people demand imme-
diate general revision they will elect a
majority of the members of this house
in favor of imemdiate general reviS-

With aching heart and tear wet eyes,
We think upon thy cruel wounds
And listen to thy plaintive cries.

Fair guardian of the Golden Gate,
We ask in pity and despair
Why thou hast suffered such a fate.

Survivor of Two Disasters.

Uninj ured. but with the most of her
possessions lost. Mrs. II. S. Jones. of
Lincoln. Neb, his experienced two of
the greatest calamities that have ever
befallen this county-the Galveston
flood and the San Francisco earth
quake. At the time of the Galveston
flood, Sept s. 1900. Mrs. Jones and
her daughter Esther, were living On a
ranch at Houston heights. 1t followed
only six weeks after the death of Mr..
Jones. 1t was on the sixth floor of the
Ansonia, a San Francisco apartment
house near the St. Francis hotel. that
Mrs. Jones and her two daughters.
Miss Esther and Mrs. Lee. were sleep
ing at the time of the first earthquake
shock. They were at once awakened
and arose Mrs. Lee had barely left
her bed when a heavy piece of bric-a-
brac fell on the pillow where she had
just left.
When they reached the street, little
more than five minutes after the shock.
they were Mortified to find that the
city was already half encircled by fire.
They decided TO take refuge in the
mission house in Chinatown, where
they knew some of the teachers. Here
they found Mrs. Chang, wife of the
Chinese minister in charge, intent on
searching for the high-class Chinese
women. who with their bound feet
were unable to walk alone and had
never stepped upon the streets. Mrs.
Jones assisted Mrs. Change in this
work and they found and saved IS of
these women.

BOTH FOOD
AND MEDICINE.

We like best to call SCOTS
Emulsion a food-medicine. 1t
is a term that aptly describes
the character and action of
our Emulsion. More than a
medicine-more than a food,
yet combining the vital prin-
ciples of both. 1t is for this
reason that SCOTS Emulsion
has a distinct and special
value in all wasting diseases.
There is nothing better to
remedy the troubles of i'm
perfect growth and delicate
health in children. The action
of SCOTS Emulsion is Just as
effective in treating weak
ness and wasting in adults.

Louisville COurier-JOurnal: In boast
ing of the commercial prosperity of the
United States we are apt TO overlook
the great prosperity of Canada, as dis
closed by its trade statistics. During
the first seven months of the current
fiscal year the aggregate of our ex-
ports and imports shows a total of
s1,752, 33S.434. Estimating our popuIa-
ton at SOO0O.O0O. this indicates a per
capita of 81, which is regarded as an
index of great prosperity. But a SINH
lar calculation as to Canada will show
still greater degree of commercial
and industrial thrift. The exports and
imports of that country. with its popu
lation of 100000. for the same period
were s3O7. OOO,O 900. which is in the ra.
ito OF S51 per capita.

were receiving campaign funds from
the great corporations of the country
which Judge Parker had just charged
and the very vehemence of his denial
carried the unthinking voter with him,
while his MIN Friday, one Cortelyou
was then Wallowing in the money
wrung from corporations. chief among
which were the life insurance COM
panies.
And it app ears that to keep alive
his popularity and keep it from waning
into desuetude he must needs do some
thing every day in the use of red
paint. fireworks and broncho-busting.
BY such means he keeps in the lime
light and has the unthinking shouting
his name. But a CALM retrospect will
convince all that he has done little to
help any American citizen who needed
or deserved help. He truckles to the
highest protec:ionists, and their re-
minder of funds contributed to assure
his election makes him as weak and
subservient as Hayes in his weakest
moments. His arrogant assumption OF
authority to make treaties and engage
ments for the whole country has made
him ridiculous in THE eyes of constitu-
tional lawyers and his insistence upon
filling the offices with San Juan sol
diers who never smelled powder is
enough to sicken a water moccasin.

ing executive he is abused by truck

COMMEMORATE SUGGESTION
Ordinances Requiring Cleaning of

DR.. j. A. Egan, secretary of the state
board of health, has issued a circular
in which he makes the commendabe
recommendation that city councils and
boards of trustees of villages pass or
dinances prohibiting the sale of poul-
try. game and fish that has not been
drawn and cleaned at the time of kill
ing. He believes that this would do
much to protect the people against I'M

Why This Secrecy.
Just why the public should not be
aware of what goes on at the police
station is something that only the
mayoT-chief can explain. Just why
doors that formerly swung wide open
during other administrations should
now be closed and why records and
communications that were formerly
entrusted in confidence to reporters
should now be suppressed is beyond
ordinary explanation. Is the public
not to know what takes place under
this administration? Just at time
when publicity is hailed as one of the
influences correcting abuses and mis-
uses, the present administration takes
the opposite course of suppression
Before this time trials We're held as
