Some Hogs, Of Course

a San Francisco letter contains the
following:
There is still some confusion and
much imposition. Bread is more than
plentiful wherever have been, but no
one seems able TO get coffee. Cooked
hams and delicacies may arrive, but
G"est'c1 ii such goods find their way
to the really needy. Baby clothes
and such things have been doled out
from street wagons and street cor
ners TO an army of uplifted hands,
some being served often and other
not at all. The hog instincts of many
have been gratified and then clothing
and even canned goods have been
thrown away by people who got too
much OF something that they did not
need. | have seen beautiful baby
clothes used to stuff open places n
shacks that should have been fixed

Nobody worries about the future of
San Francisco, but no one will rent

what the value of it is to be. The

them is to not pauperize the city

\ GOOD ONE

We will very likely never hear of
one-hundredth part of kindly acts per-
formed IN connection with relieving
the distressed and refugees from San
Francisco, but here is one told by
Conductor Costello which must not
be lost:
Truckee milkman went to the
depot with lot of milk, and a young
man approached him and said:
All, I'll give you So for a quart of
milk for my dog"
Il have no milk for dogs" said the
milkman.
"Ah. well. I'll buy a quart Of milk
for myself. then
Il said l had no milk for dogs,
said the milkman. and he went along
giving milk to women and children
and to men also, and accepting money
only when offered and at the usual
price.

TOPEKA, Kan. May lS.-Former Senator
W. A. Harris, now living at 81 Forty-ffth
street, Chicago, the Democratic nominee
for Governor Of Kansas, is not a resident OF
sas and cannot vote here in November,
He has not been q taxpayer in Kansas Tor
more than five years.
Senator Harris cannot gain citizenship
before the election, AZ this requires six
months residence In the State.
Republican leaders to-day discovered
the fact that his nomination certificate
credits him with a residence in Leaven-
worth county, The Constitution plainly
s~ustains the contention OF the Republicans
that he is not a citizen and cannot vote,
and that he is ineligible to hold the Office Of
Governor IL elected,
Senator Harris did not vote for President
or State officers in Kansas in 1904. 1t is
believed that the last vote he cast here was
in 1900, Six years ago he sold his home
farm in Leavenworth county and he has
not resided in the State since.
Senator Harris is an ex-Confederate

PATERSON, N. j., May &c. p. McClen-
don, NJ. D., a colored physician Of az Fair
street, this city, was elected to membership
in the Passaic County Medical Society at
the regular meeting OF the society last
week. This has resulted in dissension in
the society, as many OF the members are
opposed to having a colored assooiateRand
they think DIR. James NJ. Stewart, a member
of the State Tenement House Commission,
was wrong in brin ging DR., McClendon's
election up without sending out notices OF
what wal to be done.
DIR. MoClendon Ia the first negro to be-
come a member OF the society. The an
O cement OF his election has created a
stir and 1t il threatened, even, that a rival
organization will be started.
DIR. McClendon made application for mem
bership in the society when he frat came
to this city, twelve months ago. AT hat
time DR.. Stewart championed him, but
without SUCCESS. DR.. Stewart again cham
pioned DR.. McClendon at last weeks meet
ing, Those who did not attend the meet
ing were angry when they heard that the
colored physician's name had come up for
consideration, ESPECIALLY when II was learned
that the meeting was III attended and that
the candidate was elected by but one vote.
Il nave nothing to say about DR.. McClen-
don's ability said a physician to-day
He may be better than most OF the white
physicians. l simply do not wish to assoc
ciate with a colored man.

tended by John d. Rockefeller and his
son and in which the latter conducts a

The ~resignaticn is to take effect on June
81. The announcement Of the resignation
was in the form Of a statement read by
DR.. johnson at the morning services.
The rea son that he gives in thiss statement
is that it has long been his wish to spend
some time in travel and study in Europe,
and that he feels that he has an imperative
need OF rest. He recount the pleasant
relations between himself and the oonsre-
CATION and the SUCCESS of the church work,
The idea arose in the minds of some that
Dr.. Johnston's resignation might possibly
have been caused by the wide publicity
given to the Bible class work of John ID.
Rockefeller, Jr,. as if that might have
\ eemed to DR., Johnston as having over
Swallowed the general church work, but

GOV. DENEEN MAKES DENIAL.
Never Refused Regulation for President
OF standard OIL Co. nj Kentucky.

SpRINoFrELD, H., May ls,-Gov. Deneen
issued a statement tonight in which he
denies over having refused to issue a requi-
sition for Crittenden T. Ceilings Of Cinoin-
natl, president Of the Standard Oil Company
of Kentucky. who was indicted by the Grand
Jury of Tazewell county, ILL.,, on the charge
of having procured, by correspondence,
Charles Kersoher to testify falsely in a
case pending before q Justice OF the Peace
in Tazewell county, In which the Standard
Oil Company was concerned
The Governor exhibits a letter Of State
Attorney Charles Schaefer Of Tazeweli
county, In which Schaefer admits that
Ceilings and Taylor, the other defendant,
are residents OF Cincinnati. and that neither
of them was in Illinois at the time OF or
prior to the commission Of the offence
charged.
The Governor also quotes Attorney
General IStead's opinion to State Attorney
Schaefer, in which the Acknowledgement
states that the defendants, under the laws
Of Illinois, could not be fugitives from
justice in this State unless they were in the
State at the time the offence wa COM
mitted and had fed TO another State or a
foreign country.
In consequences, Gov, Deneen says, State
Attorney Schaefer did not present to him
the petition for a requisition. and hencs
one could not be refused.
The Governor adds that the law OF Ohio
in this respect is the same as the law Of
Illinois and that the opinion Of former
Attorney General Monet Of Ohio Is in
conflict with the settled law, not only OF
this State and Ohio, but also OF the United
States, the, law on extraditions as an
nounced by Spsar and the law of Iowa, Of
Alabama, Indiana and New York, IN which
States this question has arisen.
