Age OF FraternaIism.

Rev Dr. Lyman Abbott's baccalau-
ward contained much that was good
and timely. Among other things he
said:
In the coming age all the creeds and
sects will be united by Il common aim,
purpose and spirit. because the coming
age is to be a fraternal one. Every
age has its vices and its virtues. The
18th century has had vices. all due to
the same source. The first vice has
been that of accumulation. Put men
together and tell them to look after
their own interests and push ahead
and each man will be measuring him
self by his accommodations. The second
vice is the lawlessness of self-will. We
hear of the criminal classes. Can you
tell me today who belongs TO the Grim
inal class? Do the insurance direc-
tors who bought stocks low and sold
them TO companies in which they were
directors at high prices? Do the rail
road officials who broke the law of the
land and now stand convicted? Did
the coal carriers who did by gentle
mans agreement that which was
against the law? In religion, the ten
dency has been toward narrownesS and
sectarianism. Each man has thought
for himself and has thought that this
was all there was TO be thought. This
is the irrcverence of self-conceit.
1T is not alone the processes of the
Chicago packers that need inspection.
We have false labels in this country.
There is one remedy for all this. So
ciety should be considered as a unit
And the law of society should be the
law of mutual service. Already accum-
ulatiOn is on trial. l am not attacking
the multi-millionaire. 1t is better to be
one than to wish to be one and not
have the ability. We have learned that
the best interests of the community are
not served by each mans voting for
his own interests. He must look after
the national welfare
Already we have such men as Folk
in Missouri. Jerome in New, York, Col
by in New Jersey, and Roosevelt in
Washington. We may not agree with
them, but they recognize that some
thing must be done in the state. other
than looking for individual interest.
The age YOU enter has been called so

allow his soldiers 10 eat the spoiled
meats which were sent to Porto Rico,
SOC. 900 pounds of which were thrown
into the sea. 1t will be remembered
that General Miles stood his ground in
this matter all through the celebrated
Miles-Eagan controversy, when the
commissary general, in his wrath at
having his connection with the packers
revealed. resorted to such vicious abuse
in his attack on General Miles that
President Mckinley ordered court
martial of Eagan on charges of con-
duct unbecoming an officer. Eagan
was found guilty, but his sentence was
commuted TO a suspension from the
rank and duty for six years, which had
the effect of retiring Eagan on full pay
in advance of his formal retirement
with the rank and pay of brigadier
general. which meant that General Ea-
gan would have six years vacation on
a salary of So, 500 year,
The evidence offered by General
Miles was so overwhelming that it was
with great difficulty that the commits
sion succeeded in embarrassing its re-
port sufficiently 10 vindicate its friend,
the beef trust II held that the beef
was not treated with chemicals or
"embalmed," and said that canned
roast beef was not suitable for contin-
uous rations and ought not TO be used
oftener than one day in five. The COM
mission held that very little beef was
spoiled and the spelling was due TO the
tropical climate.
Today the entire world knows that
General Miles reports were only drop
in the bucket of crime and scandal
which has been uncovered. Dispatches
from Germany say that the German
government has long been aware OF
the revolving condition of things.
Many ship loads of meats have been
found absolutely unfit to eat. and the
Americans have become little better
than smugglers in their efforts to evade
the meat inspectors of that country.
1t is not creditable to America that
she should endeavor to silence the
man who was the pioneer in letting
light into these hideous revelations. 1t
looks as if hush money had been used
TO the advantage of the packers; else
the general who simply did his duty in
calling the country's attention to the
conditions would not have been wear
ing the crown of censure during the
years which have interviewed since his
charges were made. But at last the
great jury of the public has brought III
report and General Miles stands face
to face with his vindication.

At Victor IIugO's Table.

herself attended her master at table,

He Was Insane.

A representative from New York en-
joys nothing better than to recount a
story which, he declares, he had from
an official in the pension bureau One
day, so the tale runs, the bureau was
in receipt of an extraordinary commu-
nication from the west, in which the
writer, among other things, made this
astounding statement:
81 am now drawing a pension of S25
month. Recently the Lord has pros
pered me; SO, being convinced that ]
am not entitled of right to this money,
desire that my name be stricken off
the roll"
As soon as the bureau recovered in
measure from this staggering intel
ligence an investigation was set on
foot. The examiner in the field re-
ported as follows:
II have the honor to inform you that
the person who desired that the name
be stricken from the pension roll Is
now in an insane asylum in this place
and has been for some time"

PATROLMAN NO.
ON RETIRED LIST
THEODORE D. ROMANS GIVEN
PENSION
Oldest Policeman Leaves Los Angeles
Force and Will Henceforth Draw
5000 Annually From the
Relief Fund


Theodore D. Romans, the "oldest old'
policeman on the Los Angeles force,
was yesterday retired 'om active SER
vice and granted a pension of 5000 a
year. to be paid out OF the policemen $
relief fund.
Romans presented picturesque sight
as he appeared before the pension board
yesterday morning and told the story
of his long career as a preserver of the
city's peace. He wore a star on which
was policeman No. l." His helmet
bore the same number, and these two
would have told their own story with
out an additional word from the old
officer
Romans became a member of the
force April 13, 1885. He was then 43
years old. He served continuously until
yesterday, when he was told he could
hereafter lead a life of such ease as
5000 year will bring to an old man
with no more care than collecting his
income quarterly.
Chief Auble told the pension board
that Romans had "A remarkable record.
In all his more than twenty years of
service he has never once been late to
roll call and never has taken a day off
duty for any cause whatsoever.
He appears strong and hearty and
looks as though he would live to draw
many checks from the pension relief
fund.
The old officer is proud of his record
and especially proud of his star No. /.
II want that star" said one of the
commissioners, but Romans looked as
though he would rather sacrifice the
pension than the star.

UNCONFIRMED BOARD OF WORKS
MEETS MAYOR; READY FOR DUTY

bring the council to time and force the
committee of the whole to take some
action, and either confirm the board as
it now stands or give its reasons for re-
fusing to do so.
Whether any action the new board
may take looking to public improve
ments will be legal is a point which the
city attorney refuses to discuss until
he has been called on for an opinion
by the council. He declared yesterday
it was fine legal point and one that
would require considerable research to
decide.
With seven councilmen present at
yesterday meeting, this number being
all who are In the city and available,
Houghton made an effort to have the
council adjourn to a committee of the
whole and consider the mayors nom
inees. He declared he had promised
the mayor to stick by his appointments
as long as there was a chance for their
confirmation, but he firmly believed
there was no chance and considered
himself absolved from his promise.
There was no second to Houghton's s.
motion and consequently no meeting of
the committee of the whole. The coun-
Gil has declared there will be no action
taken on the mayors appointees until
full council is present. Hitler is in
New York on leave of absence, and yes
terday his leave was extended two
weeks longer Sumnerland was given
two weeks additional leave at the last
meeting and If the council rigldly adj
heres to its declaration it will be at
least three weeks before any action will
be taken by that body.

MAY START FIGHT
FOR SPUR TRACK
PROMISE TO REPEAT JACKSON
STREET AFFAIR
City Council suspends Action on Ap-
plieatIon Of Santa Fe Railroad
Company to Lay Rails
in Long Alley

What promises to be a repetition OF
the fight between the Southern Pacific
and Santa Fe for spur track on jack
son street, which was the beginning OF
several movements to recall councilmen,
all of which faded into thin air, was
begun yesterday before the council by
the demand Of the Santa Fe for spur
track about eight blocks long In an
alley between Santa Fe avenue and the
river bed
The Santa Fe asked for this spur sew
eral weeks ago and the request was
lie works. The board set a hearing and
as no protests we're made recommended
to the council that the demand be
granted. When this recommendation
was read yesterday Councilman Smith
vigorously opposed it on the grounds
that the Santa Fe already had that ter
ritory we'll covered with spur tracks
and that other railroads were contem-
plating asking for the spur.
S. p. May Make Application
"By granting this request we viii
shut off all competition between the
railroads in this territory" said Mr..
Smith. "The Santa F'e, with other rail-
roads, has 'hogged' nearly all the
streets, now they want all the alleys.
/ believe if we grant this application.
which 1 see no necessity for, we should
be well paid for it. We need the
money
would the Santa Fe be willing to
pay for this track?" one of the council
men asked representative Of that COM
pany.
Yes, but it would come out of the
pockets of those who are asking to
have track from our railroad put in
there" answered Mr.. Hayden.
The case was laid over for one week
and it is intimated that when 1t again
comes up for hearing the Southern Pa
cific will be on hand with an applica-
tion for the spur.
AS salve for the wounded feelings
of the Santa Fe Councilman Smith
moved that it's application for an extern
sion of about 200 feet to the Sacra-
mento street spur be granted, after
having opposed it as vigorously as he
did the alley franchise.
