San Francisco and the Saloon.
If instances Of the uselessness Of
rum were wanting, San Francisco sup
plies few. The city includes the
county Of San Francisco, but just over
the county line is San. Mateo: where,
when the saloons were allowed to open,
thousands of men and women f1ocked
and made an orgy which approached a
riot. The sheriff was appealed to and,
responded that he would close the sa-
looms and keep them closed If he had
to apply for militia aid. In San Fran ran
cisco, Mayor Schmitz who, before the
earthquake, had no "hifalutin' no.
tions' about liquor selling, has seen
the point, and has announced that the
! liquor shops will be kept closed in
definitely. Moreover, he has warned
saloon men who are putting up tempo
rary structures not to invest their
money on the basis Of the old order of
things. as the number Of drinking
places in the new city would be greatly
curtailed.
= Here is an economic question to be
studied.. San Francisco had been
knocked down by an earthquake and
the ruins licked up by fire. The city
| is eager to rebuild and it stands to rea-
son that any one with capital to put
into the new city should be welcomed
Manufacturers, jobbers and retailers are
receiving the glad hand. The govern
ment has not notified any of them Of
a new deal with regard to groceries
drv goods stores or. meat shops. u
!. course, these must be built according
}, to law. but there Is no evidence of al
intention to restrict the number. O.
i, such places. But when 1t comes t.
liquor, it is different. San Francisco
even in her straits, puts, restrictions o.
the investment Of capital in building

Credit for Senator Nelson.

The outcome of the rate regulation
FIGHT is bringing Senator Nelson out
in the strongest light. His selection
along with Allison and two. other SEN
ators as committee of the " elder
statesmen to draw the compromise
amendment, emphasizes. the trust
placed in him by President Roosevelt,
and also his influence in the senate.
The senior senator from Minnesota is
no grandstand player, and he has done
nothing to attract attention to himself
as a champion Of railroad legislation.
He was not on the committee which
had charge of the bill, and left Clapp,
Dolliver and Tillman to do the field
work. He was always there for re-
lance, however, and the closing stages
of the long struggle have brought him
into prominence in spite of himself.
Minnesota is proud Of the influence he
is exerting for the presidents pro
gram, and the critics at home are Ell
fectually silenced.-s.: 80.
Another place where Senator Mel
son 3 work is counting is in the, Gar
field investigations. The Sank Center
Herald calls attention to the fact thai
the oil trust investigation, with its far
reaching disclosures, was made possible
by Nelson. It was "wholly due to Sen
ator Nelson. IS nerve that the bureau o
corporations was made a part Of tn
department Of commerce and labor
The great possibilities of that burea
are Just beginning to dawn on tn
American people. r.:

The South Dakota Divorce Again

The "Merrymakers," the bu1lesque
