FUNCTION OF CHRONIC KICKER.

The chronic kicker is not a pleasant
personality. but he performs a most
useful function; he is the watchdog of
liberty, the price, of which is eternal
vigilance. The kindliness and the So
cial feeling of the Americans tend to
make them shrink from protest against
trifling abuses and unimportant in
fringements of public rights. The in
dividuality of the British. on the other
hand, their bull-headed harshness. tend
to make an act of protest congenial to
them Before a. petty infraction of
right the long-suffering Americans are
inclined to submit with a laugh, ad
mitting that the joke is on them.
whereas the British fail to see the joke
and rise up in their wrath. They re-
fuse to pay an overcharge: and If they
are compelled by circumstances they
appeal the case-or they write TO the
Times And when enough letters have
been written to the Times public opin-
ion is reused at last. and then the mat
ter is quickly settled. If the hotels of
Europe are now cleaner than they were
half a century ago. with larger towels
and wash basins, with better sanitary
conveniences, our thanks are due to
two generations of travellers from the
British Isles who were unceasing in
complaint whenever they failed to find
what they wanted and when they did
find what they did not want.-The

"ORGANIzED LABOR" PRAISES
CALLS LABOR DEPARTMENT

organized Labor" in its issue of
June 80 prints the following:
The San Francisco Call, it's pro-
prietor and manager are to be con-
graduated upon the sound labor policy
and the friendly attitude to trade
unionism lately evinced by that journal.
The labor department of this progress
sive morning daily is edited by o. NJ.
Boyle and contains several columns of
union news. In its editorial columns The
Call has also lately vigorously espoused
the cause of the organized wal ge workers.
Its declaration that the reconstruction
of San Francisco will largely be in the
hands of the organized building me-
chanics is certainly we'll founded.
There is no question about the re-
building of San Francisco as speedily
as possible. and there is absolutely no
chance for argument that the organ
fzed building artisans of the city and
State will be the most important factor
in the reconstruction of the city. NHence
we congratulate The Call upon it's
acquisition of a labor department. and
more so upon the fact that The Call
seems to be on the right track"
The San Francisco call., 1906-07-02
THE CITY IMPROVES EVERY DAY.

Every twenty-four hours makes difference in
the appearance of the city. Stay away from the
burned district for day or two and then note the
Improvement. Temporary buildings are going up
everywhere Permanent blocks will break the sky
line as soon as the building laws can be adjusted
and permission given by the insurance companies
to property owners to clear their lots and proceed
to reconstruct In every direction there is evidence
of the rehabilitating of San Francisco and there is
little reason that certain persons writing from here
to friends in other localities should say nothing is
being done
II these pessimists had the money that has been
spent for reconstruction during the past two months
they would have funds enough with which to build
good-sized city in the localities where they send
their letters All cannot be done at a signal There
have been many VeXing drawbacks many delays in
getting material and tie-up OF one branch of our
transportation service and in spite of all this San
Francisco has gone steadily ahead. The business
man erects temporary structure, builds his bust
up the limits of the structures capacity for
housing it. and then plans for fine steel mercan-
tile home. The buildings that being announced
from day to day being planned for downtown
Streets going to be built; they are not news
paper talk as the knocker puts it. Does this pro-
fessonal hammer-welder think for moment that
the half billion dollars in real estate represented by
the burned district is going to be abandoned? He
writes IKE ne tIl1nkS SO, Dut he is badly IN error.
1t does not take much of mind to grasp the ex-
tent OF improvements since the fire in April Even
large part of the debris that will take FIVE years to
remove" has been carted away, and we have only
Jast recently got down-through the kindness OF
the adJusters-to clearing away the bricks and the
dirt. Today the Board of Public Works will begin
the cleaning OF downtown streets and sidewalks and
ii another week there will be noticeable improve
fnent in this regard. San Francisco is recovering
as no city under like circumstances did before
Every twenty-four hours make careful estimate
Of the work and you will find that there is more
doing than you ever thought there was.

attributed to the desire of Mr.. Roosevelt and this
did not go through The President, however, has
never fought for what is termed the modification OF
the laws, but merely wanted better treatment for
the Chinese under laws that are now on the statute
boobs The Santo Domingo treaty will be defeat
ed but in this the Presidents views were somewhat
modified toward the end of the session.
But the two great battles for right that the
President engaged in were striking evidence OF the
mans strong hold upon Congress- and the rate bill
measures and the settlement of the canal contro-
versy are certainly signal Roosevelt victories. The
Canal Commission is TO build lock canal, and the
sum of S3o,oooooo has been appropriated for work
thereon for the year. The rate bill has not alto
gether the obstructive legislation OF the
corporations but it has framed laws that will have
lasting effect upon the common carriers and give
to shippers equal rights
Federal supervision of life insurance companies
was set back, but be brought up again. although
it may not be necessary to do this as some of the
State laws have been moderated improved to
meet laterday conditions in life insurance writing.
And not the least important of the work of Con-
sufferers from the San Francisco fire. the total ap-
preparations being So, 100000 in money and as
much in value of supplies and clothing.
Federal inspection OF packing houses was pro-
moted by the President and the enactment of this
law helped to add to the satisfaction of the nation
chief executive to what he has accomplished The
President may go to his summer home for much
needed vacation conscious of having valiantly up
held his reputation for doing things that make his
people glory in him.

THE GARDEN OF SORROW.

1 cannot bear to think on roses now.
Nor any soft. sweet thing that seems
to breathe.
The little airs that touch me on the
brow
The clouds with all the whispering
rain beneath
l cannot bear to think on roses now.
The twilight sounds that tremble into
rhyme,
They sting me-all the bees of mem
ory
That gather on the fadeless flower of
time,
And all the golden words made for
The twilight sounds that tremble into
rhyme.
How shall 1 learn to face the night
again
The empty winds that kiss my cheek
and pass.
The dreary moments forget-and then
The changeless shadow on the brit
tie glass:
How shall learn to face the night
again?

body's Magazine.

FRIENDLINEss on AMERICANS.

The ingenious French pbilosopAer
M. lie Bon, commenting on the motto
of the Revolution. Liberty. Equality
and Fraternity declared that the real
difference between the French and the
British lay in the fact that the French
were enamored of Equality and cared
little for Liberty, while the Brttish II
sisted on Liberty and never pave a
thought TO Equality. And when I
quoted this to Mr. .Rudyard Kiplinn. he
instantly added his own comment to
the effect that what the American really
preferred was Fraternity-..He is a
good fellow himself. and he expects vc,t
TO be one. This spontaneous surges-
tion seems to be a recognition fset
friendliness. a regard for ones fellow
creatures-the social instinct. in short
may be more often looked for amon~
US Americans than among our British
coCsins.-The Reader

Woman is essentially an easy-living.

freedom appeals to her as much as 10

grows prettier and easier every season
is proof positive that it grows more
popular and that Ii is worn for a
greater portion OF the day than ever
before. The more lace and frou-frou

it finds favor in feminine eyes.

In designing their fashions they ap-

tive-to produce a garment that is
beautiful to the eye. 1t is the gown

wears the gown after. L am not goin g

Only it is unfortunate that we must
adapt our poor bodies to their dresses
instead of they adapting their dresses
to our bodies
There is only one thing to hope for.
and that is that the next great fashion
designer will be a woman Why nOt2
She understands beauty certainly as
we'll as man Then she has the added
advantage of knowing that a woman
to look and to be really beautiful must
be healthful That to be healthful
she must dress comfortably. A woman
designer would wear the clothes she
designed. A man does not. There is
everything in that.
