WILL DELAY
MANCHURlA

A regrettable accident occurred yes
terday on the S. S. Manchuria, one
of the principal pieces made for the
repairing of her engines breaking
while being put into place. AS re-
suit a new piece will have to be made
and the final survey of the vessel be-
fore her departure delayed for at least
five days. The break was in the main
throttle valve. one of the heaviest
pieces turned out FOR the temporary
repairs by the Honolulu Iron Works,
the making of which has occupied a
force of men night and day for the
past twelve days.
Where the fault comes in is not de-
termined, the break occurring when
the piece of machinery was being
clamped into place. and it will re-
quire an investigation to determine
whether the manner of placing it was
wrong.
Fortunately the pattern for the valve
is preserved, which will make the
turning out of a duplicate an easier
job than the manufacture of the origi-
nal

GIBBON LOOKING FOR
San PEDRO COMMERCE

S. F. Call: The sudden sailing of
IT. S. Gibbon, general counsel for the
San Pedro, Los Angeles and Salt Lake
Railroad. for Honolulu on the Sierra
last Thursday, has set Los Angeles
and Southern California agog over the
belief that Senator w. A. Clark is
about to establish the long predicted
line of steamships from San Pedro to
the Orient. Gibbon said on sailing
that his was to be trip of pleasure
only, but Southern Californians refuse
to believe that there is not significance
in his movements, especially in the
light of his recent trip to China and
Japan, and C1ark's known wish for a
line OF steamships across the Pacific,
Gibbon but recently returned from
an extended trip through the Orient.
While there he studied trade condi-
tions in Japan and China. On his way
back to Los Angeles he stopped at Ho-
1lolulu and carefully looked over the
exporting and importing field there.
He has been in communication with
large merchants across the Pacific for
some time and it is said that these
letters were written with the object of
finding out how much trade he could
bring to San Pedro at the outset II
Clark started his vessels. San Pedro
is the terminal of the San Pedro, Los
Angeles and Salt Lake Railroad,

Supervisor Dwight SHE'D at a voucher

The voucher was unspecific in its

of the police committee.
That committee. by the way, takes an
referred &c it. Take the Piianaia al
legged 'phony voucher, for instance.
This voucher called for lump Of
salary for Piianaia which Lucas plainly
simply political remuneration. 1t was
referred to a committee for investiga-
tion and speedy report, but the COM
mittee seems to be loath, for some rea-
son, to act in the matter, asking for
more time at every meeting. 1t seems
to be case of two eyes on the votes
and none on the voucher.
Archer in the course of the evening
called attention to the fact that more
than twenty employees of the police de-
partment were at present having their
salaries garnisheed. He did not think
such men fit or qualified to be officers
of the law.

REACHING FOR THE PACIFIC.

The Chicago Great Western, known as the
Maple Leaf route, is reported from Denver to
be behind deal by which it is proposed to secure
Eastern connections for the Denver, Northwestern
and Pacific, which, with the San Pedro Los An
geles and Salt Lake road will connect to the Pacific
Coast. Should the deal be consummated the coun-
Try will have another great transcontinental sys-
TEN. The report indicates the importance which
Eastern roads place in Pacific connections, and also
the great difficulties that must be overcome to Sc
cure them. But of late years no difficulties have
apparently, been deemed too great to be attempted
The building of the Western Pacific, for exam
pe to give the Gould roads access to Pacific ports
has been attended by the overcoming of tre-
nendous obstacles. There is scarcely mile oi
the way that has not presented difficulties unknown
in the early days of railroad construction when
bonuses and free rights of way were the rule AT
Sacramento the right of way through the city was
secured by purchasing line of city lots at cost
of upward of $4oo,ooo Most of the communities
entered presented difficulties as great in compari-
son to their size as did Sacramento. The railroad
builder of these days must pay for what he gets
The Chicago Great Western, if it connect with
the coast will spend millions whether it secure
control of roads already built or build new ones
But the fact that the large railroad systems of the
country regard such investments as necessary for
their future prosperity speaks loudly of their ex-
pectations for the development of Pacific Coast
industry and trade.

THE DECLINE OF INTEMPERANcE.

Chicago labor leaders organizing total absti-
nence societies, which members of labor organiza-
tions joining in large numbers Some OF the
unions have inserted clauses in their agreements
with their employers that drunkenness, or drinking
or smoking while duty shall lead to expulsion
from the union. The movement is in line with the
demand of the age for sober men. The advent Of
the order, which requires of all classes of labor
technical skill unknown before the era of modern
invention, is not one in which man mentally weak
ened by drink can make good beside his sober
fellows
This is seen in all callings The locomotive engi-
reer who has ntrusted to him the lives of hundreds
of passengers and property running into hundreds
of thousands of dollars in value requires all his
faculties A drunken engineer the engine of an
express train is thing unthinkable. The exacting
work OF the complicated linotype machine excludes
drunkenness. No more sober men than printers
are to be found. Similar examples could be given
OF practically all crafts and trades
The demands of modern society have too, ban
ished drunkenness from the professional classes.
The lawyer upon whose judgment hangs the pro-
prietorship of millions has no brain power which
he can afford to sacrifice to drink. The lawyer
successful in a large way is the sober lawyer. In
medicine and in surgery modern demands of the
profession require cool heads and steady hands.
Operations deemed impossible fifty years ago are
now successfully performed But if the hand of
the behind the knife fater ever so little fatal
results follow. No hand unsteadied by drink can
be trusted with the work
The age is a sober age, and every invention re-
quiring technical skill, every advance over the
methods of the od-time days, makes for temper
Harce.

Elihu Root upset his plans and talk OF Secretary
OF the Navy Bonaparte for the Presidency worried
him little The Wallace incident and the conten-
ton that followed compelled the President indl-
rectly to announce that the War Secretary was
out for the Presidency and that he had advised
him to allow public opinion upon the affair to ad-
just itself before making known his ambition
The President has won big victories in the mat
ters of the Panama canal, the rebate cases and
pure food measures. The administration is now
firmly established in public confidence. Taft has
been, it is reported, left in Washington to sit on

pearance of signs that the War Secretary is about
to go into the Presidential campaign with will
and that he has the backing of the Roosevelt party.

OUR GREATEST
INSURANCE.

To the Editor of The Call.
Sir: Under the captions ITO
Strengthen Fire Insurance" and Com
pany Fears Water Famine-Spring
Valley Sends Strong Warning to Con-
sumers," today's Call contains articles
dealing separately with these subjects.
They are so intimately connected
that 1t may be proper to call the atten-
tion of your readers to the fact that
an adequate water supply is by far
the greatest fire insurance known. In
fact. had our water supply been ade-
quate we would not now be facing the
results of the most disastrous con-
Migration ever known and doubtful of
scaled down insurance payments.
Had we, instead of filing up the old
fire cisterns for the benefit of street
railroads, water, gas and telephone
mains, maintained and extended these
much property might have been saved !;
and had we provided the adequate
water supply years ago elaborately
worked out and officially recommended
we might not now be called upon to
face losses ten times greater than such
a supply would cost.
An adequate water supply is the only
real fire insurance and protection a
city can have, and not one which, with
only one-half the ordinary draft upon
it, it's owners should have to caution
the consumers against the danger of
water famine" San Francisco has
since 1871 been making Investigations
as to an adequate water supply, as
each dry year calls attention to it's
deficiency and to the danger of water
famine. AS these Investigations have
been going on for thirty-f1ve years 1t
may be we'll to ask, How long, o Lord,
how long?"
A water supply that has to be boiled
to render it, fit to drink and which
has to be sparingly used to avert a
water famine with our reduced popu-
lation is not safe supply to rely
on for either home use or home pro-
lection. Sincerely yours.
AQUA PURA."

SECRETARY TAFTS BOOM.

Secretary Taft's boom for the Presidency is be-
ginning to be heard from. This time it seems in a
fair way to be something than mere launch
ing party. The completion of the first session of
the ffty-ninth Congress left Mr.. Taft in full pos
session of the ground and President Roosevelt very
much inclined to give the War Secretary the inf1r-
ence of the administration in his campaign
When the Panama tangle over the resignation
OF Chief Engineer Wallace caused temporary con-
fusion among the councillors of the President Mr.
Taft just fitting himself into position of po-
lical security. He had outlined his campaign, but
