Illustrated is in a soft shade of brown
leather, with vest and landings of yetta,

the fitted mode, the vest adding much to
the fashionable appearance. Tie skirt is
of medium width, cleverly cut, so that 1t
fits closely over the hips, and fares pref
tiy below the knee. The landings of
fur emphasize the circular sections or
founces that characterize this particular
cut. The skirt is senslbly planned to es-
cape the ground all around.

the charm of the material of the coat.
Smart braid frogs make the front fasten-

cut that is so modish for all purposes at

inserted in the side seams, and both collar

and the Tea Jacket Represent

The little Jacket that is called by SO
many fanciful names is making quite
furore for Itself, and is in many respects
ousting the separate waist from its long
reign of supremacy.
First 1t was the dinner coat that intro
duced the fad. This page gave quite
some space to the fad In its first days.

adopting it, and long before the smart
little fad reached these shores.

coats, ana the daintier and moro delicate

OF course, that the tint chos be the
most becoming one to the we,e r.
Those deliberately pretty modes of the
various Louis periods, the Louis Quatorxe,
Quinze and Seize, are what the best
makers are following. Occasionally one
sees coat of the Directoire design, an
exact reproduction Of the coat that was
worn by the man of that time: one that
has come down to the present day as the
Official costume of 1.-The immortals,' as
the members of the French Academy are
known.
The delightful part of thu charm of
those little coats is that they are cor.

nection with the waist. Skirts of black

these three furs being especially fash
ionable for such use, although mink is
also seen. Black caracul and Persian

The rather small hat shapes are gem

usually being given by the use of band

nent feature Of all the imported models,

such design as to be drawn on over the

is Of modish design, the fulness cleverly
manipulated by means of fiounces, applied
with fancy stitching. The sleeve has
strap at the cuff which enables the wearer
to clasp it closely at the wrist, and the
collar is similarly lifted to be drawn up
close around the throat.

Virginia Anti-Saloon League
Progress

At this writing, the annual convention
of the State Anti-Saloon League of Vir-
ginia is in session at Petersburg. The
League has received $4,000 in contri-
buttons during the last year. Dry terri
tory has increased all over the state
under League operations, only one con-
siderable town having been lost during
the year, namely, Danville, while Shen-
andoah, Edinburg, Mount Jackson and
Cape Charles have been added to the
dry towns The following interesting
statistics were given:
Number of saloons at present in Vir-
ginia, including the four at Cape
Charles, which will be closed in few
days, 1,016, a decrease of SO during
the year; wholesale liquor dealers, 13,
a decrease of four. There are only "a
saloons in the country districts of Vir-
ginia, leaving out saloons in country
places contiguous to cities. There are
II dispensaries in the state President
Cannon, in his address, declared that
no additional result could be obtained
from the Mann law until distilleries are
brought under it's provisions, as saloons
have virtually been swept out of the
country districts of the state and out of
towns of less than 500 inhabitants.
Handsome silk banners were awarded
to the county of Lancaster and the
cities of Richmond, Lynchburg, Ash
land and Blackstone, for having con-
tributed the largest amount of money
during the year closed to the Anti-Sa-
loon League.

QUERIES FOR VOTERS

Are California voters willing to In.
trust the management OF ALL theii
public affairs to the politico-railwaS
combineg
Are they so well pleased with the
combines control of state affairs that
they wish the combine also to manage
their county and municipal affairs?
Are they willing to place in the GU
bernatorlal chair a man who is hand
in glove with Walter Parker, Abe
Ruef ETC., and who is directly in
debted to the combine for his NOM
ination?
Are they ready to fill the whole list
of state offices with men who were
chosen by that group of banqueters
depicted in The Herald's famous re-
produced photograph?
Are they in favor of dragging the
California judiciary into the mire of
dirty politics, as was done, to the
disgrace of the state, at the Santa
Cruz convention?
Are they willing to install a state
administration mortgaged to the COM
bine and Obliged to do officially what
soever the combine may require?
Are they desirous of having such
machine politics as controlled the Re-
publican state convention introduced
also in local affairs of counties, cities
and towns?
And are the voters of Southern Cal
ifornia, especially, inclined to elect
candidates who are creatures of the
railway octopus that squeezes the in
dustries of this section to the extent
of $2O,OOO,0 600 in traffic extortion, as
revealed by Joseph H. Call, the gov
ernments special counsel in railway
cases?
Finally, are voters ready to assign
set over and convey unto the S. p
Republican machine, all and singular,
their public rights, interests, aspira-
tions and hopes?
If all these things "look good" to
the voters of California then let them
cram the ballot boxes next Tuesday
with votes for Gillett, the candidate
of the com mbine and the grafters, and
the whole list of office seekers named
by the combine for state, congress,
legislative, judicial and county offices.
If all these things do not 'look good''
to the voters of California then it is
their solemn duty as citizens and pa
triots to vote for Theodore A. Bell and
the whole state Democratic ticket and
the whole county non-partisan ticket.

ST PETERSBURG, oct. s1.--The
first anniversary of the proclamation
Of the manifesto giving constitution
to Russia passed in undisturbed quiet.
Disorder and bloodshed were averted.
The workmen of st. Petersburg, all
ways the most numerous element in
any disturbance, compiled absolutely
with the orders of the labor organiza-
tions and abstained from any celebra-
tion or demonstration.
The Putiloff Iron works whose em-
ployes worked as usual, in obedience
to orders from the labor headquarters,
remained open all day. These works
are the heart of the labor movement.
Disquieting signs were observed near
the works last night and today and an
adequate force of men were stationed
in the neighborhood to cope with any
emergency. The men had the day off.
but work was performed in most Of
the shops.

injured of the two. his hurts consist
ing of cuts on the head and ankle and
body bruises. Bugalis was cut upon
the right arm.
Trolls stated that they were walking
along the track on their way home
after work and the train surprised
them. Both the men were taken TO

TRIBUTE TO Seller

"My calculations convince me that not
| less than $20,00O,000 per year in excess
of normal rates is forced from the
traffic to and from Southern California
within the territory south of the Te-
hachapi."
That declaration cannot be airily
brushed aside by Republican newspa-
pers and spellbinders as a Campaign
roorback.'' It's author, Hon. Joseph H.
Call of Los Angeles, has been for
eighteen years special counsel for the
United States government in railway
cases. In such matters he speaks with
mathematical exactness. He knows
whereof he affirms."
The statement quoted above is pre-
ceded by this: "A fair water rate from
Atlantic to Pacific ports is Sc per ton,
while the railroad rate averages over
$26 per ton, and the tonnage is over
100000 tons per year." The official re-
ports of the railway companies attest
Mr.. Calls figures, as he proceeds to
show: "These figures are substantiated
first, by the returns of the railroads
themselves as to earnings; second, by
their combination tariffs on file with
the interstate commerce commission,
and third, by the tonnage transporta-
tion to and from Southern California"
In this disclosure we have the secret,
as Mr.. Call points out, of the deter
mined effort made by the Southern Pa
cifc company and it's allies to control
political affairs in the state, county
and municipal governments of Califor-
mia. The politico-railway machine is
maintained, says this unquestionable
authority, "for the single purpose OF
plugging up the harbors of this coast
and forcing transportation over the
long hauls by rail at exorbitant rates
fixed by combination between parable
railroads"
Thus the strenuous endeavor of the
combine to get control of San PedrC
harbor is accounted for. The purpose
is the same that leads the big industrial
trusts to buy the property of ndepend
ent competitors and then closing them
If desirable, so as to keep supplies dowr
and prices up. That is the same plug
ging up process that the Southern Pa
cific company ct al. is seeking to intro
duce at San Pedro harbor.
But think Of Southern Callforni;
business interests, agricultural. com
mercial and industrial being held up by
this aggregation of railway bandits Il
the tune of s2O,OOO,OOO a year! And thii
outrageous extortion is In order that th'
bandits may make a showing to thei
stockholders as thus indicated by Mr.
Call: 1.-THE net earnings Of these tive
systems (Southern Pacific and SAINT;
Fe) exceed 25 per cent per year upol
the cost value, as against S1A per cen
for all property in the United states.'
In other words the business Interest,"
/ Of Southern California are held up TO
S2O,OO0,O00 wherewIth to declare earn
I ings on stock soaked with water.
And now the people OF Southern Cali
! fornia are called upon to decide at tn
polls whether they are willing to con
tinue payment OF this $4,000. 600 o
