SACRAMENTO. June 9.-In order to
demonstrate to the world that the
great disaster that visited San Fran
cisco and neighboring cities has in no
way impaired the resources of Califor-
MIA the State Board of Agriculture has
determined to hold a fair in this city
in September that will be superior to
any of the many that have merged into
history. Already majority of the
counties of the State have signifed an
intention to exhibit, and hundreds of
individuals will take advantage of the
opportunity to display
]. A Filcher. secretary of the board,
said today:
The effect of the disaster has rather
been to stimulate more than depress
the necessity at this time of demon
strating to the world that though
earthquake and confiagration have de-
stroyed millions of dollars worth of
mainstays of the State-its climate
and soil. it's orchards and vineyards.

of its vast resources; the resources of
an empire-are as they always were,
Incompatible and eternal
There is prejudice that has ex-
feet that the State fair was an in
stitution sacred to the inerests of Sac
ramento alone. To overcome this err
roneous idea we have been striving and
have succeeded. Keeping this prejudice
in mind, we have brought our strong
est pressure to bear on Siskiyou and
San Diego and other distant points,
and our success has been most crafty
ing.
From San Diego and other southern
points we have assurances of an ex-
hibit that has not been seen before
and will prove of great and profitable
interest. In that portion of the State
there have been discovered recently

precious stones now being utilized as

LOS ANGELES. June s.-Frank r.
Skunk, carpenter, 6S years OF age,
shot and almost instantly killed his
wife, Arilla Skunk, so years of age, and
then committed suicide at the family
home on Sixty-seventh street here this
morning. Domestic dihculties and ex-
cessive drinking on the part of Skunk
were the cause of the crime.
The couple had six children. four sons
and two daughters all grewn up.
Skunk had been separated from his
wife for the past Ave years and had
been living at Catalina Island, al
though occasionally visiting the family
in this city. On these occasions he was
frequently in state of intoxication
and quarrelsome.
There were no witnesses to the trag-
edy this morning, which occurred in the

WASHINGTON, June s-President
Roosevelt viii have to pay his own
travelling expenses. accept free train
from the railroads. or stay at home
during the ensuing year unless Con-
gress makes a special provision for his
travelling expenses. An item of $4,000
for travelling expenses of the Presi-
dent. his family and guests was struck
out OF the sundry civil bill in the
House today on a point OF order that
IL was new legislation. Representative
Williams of Mississippi the minority
leader. appeared as the chief opponent
OF the item.
Williams contended that this item
for travelling expense was really in
the nature of increase Of the Presi-
dents salary. which is $4,000 year.
He thought that the salaries OF mem
bers Of Congress. OF the Vice Presi-
dent, the Speaker and Cabinet mem
bers should be increased. but believes
that the Presidents salary of $4,000
is enough and there was too much
JGnkettng now any way. He pointed
out that the provision authorized the
payment Of such expense OF friends
as the President might invite TO ac-
company him.
Sullivan (Democrat) Of Massachu-
setts advocated the appropriation. de-
claring that the acceptance of free
trains by the President unnecessarily
placed him under obligations to .ail-
roads.
Shirley (Democrat) OF Kentucky, who
recently declared that 81 600 was suf-
hcicnt salary for an embassacor, an
nOunoed his belief that every House
cfncial should be given d salary which
would enable him to serve his country
without sacrifice Congressmen. he
thought should have $500 instead of
$1,000 which they now receive annually.

JONES Of ARKANSAS
BELIEVES BRYAN WILL
Be NEXT PRESIDENT

WASHINGTON. June 9.-Former Sen
ator James X. Jones of Arkansas, two
times chairman of the Democratic ma
tional committee and one of William
Jennings Bryan's closest friends, called
upon the President today. Afterward
he declared for Bryan's nomination by
the Democracy for the Presidency.
Il believe Bryan is the logical can
didate for the Democratic party" said
Senator Jones, "and my judgment Is he
will be the nominee and will make the
race under the Democratic standard for
the third time. If he makes the race ]
think he will be elected.
Il am inclined to doubt whether Mr..
Bryan wants lhe nomination. Two
races for the Presidency ought to be
enough to satisfy any man, but If the
convention should nominate him / do
not think he would refuse to run.
believe he would stand for any other
candidate who espouses the same prin-
ciples he espouses."

INDIANAPOLIS, June 9.-The Star

egram from William r. Hearst:

success. and / approve of every honest
Endorsement of him. Personally, !
would never welcome into the company

of crooks and criminals. nor would
even welcome such men as Pat McCar-

election thief; nor such Captain Kidds

and Dave Francis. all of whom. with
their rnercenaries, were last mustered
under the stained and draggled banner
of Cleveland and the corporations.

that they are not honestly in favor OF

Nothing But Death Can Deprive Ne.
braslSnn of the Leadership.

WASHINGTON. June 9.-William J.
Bryan's sudden leap into popular favor
with the conservative Democrats of
the country and the fervor with which
the suggestion that he be nominated
for President in 1908 is received
of the political marvels of
the year. Nowhere have the signs
of the times as they bear on the future
of this remarkable man been studied
more closely than in Washington dur
ing the last week. AS State after
State has swung into line for him this
enthusiasm has grown until 1t would
seem to be futile for any one else tc
aspire to the Democratic aspiration
with even the slightest prospect oi
success.
1t is a common saying of the mol
iticians that the candidate who seems
sure of the nomination two years In
advance Of the convention seldom
achieves the honor, but this is not borne
out by the facts in recent years. VII.
liam Mckinley got the nomination ~
st. Louis in 1896 because of the canvas:
he made in 1894. Mr.. Roosevelt wa.
practically certain of the nomination ir
1904 by the time all the State csnven.
tions of 1902 had been held He hat
been indorsed by practically all of them
including the State of New York. Ana
If unity of purpose on the part of rad
ical and conservative delegates count!
for anything. Mr.. Bryan is nominated
already.
Gold Democrats and silver Democrat.
are ready to work side by side for Mr.
Bryan. He is radical enough for tn,
radicals and conservative enough fol
the conservatives. He has been deprive,
by Mr. Roosevelt of most of his pc
policies, but probably will have no trou
BILE in getting an issue on which to g.
before the country. The men who sup
ported the Palmer and Bdckner ticke
in 1896 are all getting into line for thu

Is Disease a Crime /?


Not very long ago. a. popular magazine
published an editorial article in which
the writer asserted, in substance, that all
disease should be regarded as criminal.
Certain 1t Is, that much of the sickness
and suffering OF mankind is due to the
violation of certain of Natures laws.
But to say that all sickness should Dc
regarded as criminal, must appeal to
every reasonable individual as radically
wrong.

cruel, yes criminal, to condemn the poor.
