THE GYPSIES.
They Are . Separate People, q Tribe
quite by ThemseIves

They Are . Separate People, q Tribe
Quite by Themselves.
"Such as wake on the night and sleep
on the day and haunt taverns and ale
houses and no man wot from whence
they come nor whittier they CO." So
quantity describes an old English stat
ute against the gypsies. Ever since the
year 1880, says writer in the London
Standard, Great Britain has tried to get
rid of this strange people without ap-
preciable success. Every year or so
some county is up in arms against
them, yet they persist in returning and
apparently thrive under persecution.
The gypsies are popularity supposed
to come originally from Egypt, as their
name indicates, but their origin is trac-
ed farther east than the land of the
Nile. Wherever they come from, they
are separate people, a tribe quite by
themselves.
They appeared in England about
1905, and twenty-six years later Henry
VIII. ordered them to leave the coun-
try in sixteen days, taking all their
goods with them. IAN outhndish peo-
ple,'' he called them. The act was in
effectual and In 1862 Elizabeth framed
still more stringent law, and many
were hanged.
But what numbers were executed"
says one old writer, yet notwith-
standing, all would not prevaile, but
they wandered as before, uppe and
downe." They got into Scotland and
became an intolerable nuisance. Both
In that country and in England legisla-
ton proved quite Intellectual. The acts
gradually fell into desuetude. Under
George ". all that was left Of the ban
against the gypsies was the mild law
that any person telling fortunes shall
be deemed a rogue and a vaeabond"
"Gypsies are no longer q prescribed
class" says a recent writer. Probably
the modern gypsy does little evil be-
yond begging and petty theft, but his
determination not to work is as strong
as ever, and it seems curious that an
Industrial people like ours continues to
tolerate horde of professional idlers"
How numerous the horde is may be
gathered from the fact that the number
who wintered in Surrey one year was
estimated at 10000.
The language as well as the life of
the gypsy tribe has a tenacity of its
own. Many of their words have taken
firm hold in half slang, half permits
sibly way. Shaver is the gypsy word
for child. Pal is pure gypsy. Codger
means man. Cutting up is gypsy for
quarreling. and cove stands for that

DIFFERENT KIND MELODRAMA

-"Over Niagara Falls. A melo
drama in beautiful settings will be
offered 20 the patrons of the Grand
Opera house Friday evening. over
Niagara Fall" has been styled bV a
well known critic in Chicago diff
ferent kind of melodrama. There is
nothing revoltingly lurid about over
Niagara Falls" nothing which does
not seem perfectly natural and within
the range of possibility. and there is
not a line in the entire production
which savors of vulgarity. These are
certainly matters which recommend
when considered carefully. Apart
from it's scenery and realistic features,
"Over Niagara Falls" has one of the
strongest casUs ever seen outside of
the high priced productions.

The election primary has been
held and the results thereof of
course must be satisfactory and
final There are some features of
the primary that we admire and
will remain devoted to, and there
are others that will have to be
amended and corrected. The
strong feature of the primary
is the perfect freedom of ex-
preston on the part Of the people
in expressing their choice. The
poor man has very little show in
the primary the same as he had in
the caucus method. The expense
comes in the absolute necessity Of
getting the voters out to the pri-
maries. With all the contests and
all the advertising only thirty per
cent of the vote was cast at the
primaries. This certainly is not
majority expression of the people
and yet it must be accepted as
such.
The readers of the REPORTER
understand that we have always
been with Senator LaFollette and
in favor of the reforms he has
agltated since his advent in politics
ten years ago. In this respect we
have always been with Senator
LaFollette because we believed
he was right and still believe
SO. In the recent fight between
Davidson and Lenroot we believed
the Senator was making a mistake
as we are now fully convinced that
he did. The people love fair play
and will always insist upon justice
between men. While we person
ally disagreed with Mr.. LaFol-
let's position we do not condemn
him for it. He has made a mis-
take, as we are all likely to make,
in judgment and equity. We shall
continue to stay with LaFollette
when he is right and disagree with
him when we think he is wrong.
The reform Legislation which
has been passed as a result of his
effort and labor, is of great value
to the people. We shall continue
to stand with him in his efforts for
the good of the people and shall
disagree with him when we think
he is wrong, but he possesses in a
high degree those elements of
character which are admired of
men. While the results at the
first primary must be a great dis
to him, the results
are exactly what he has been
working for. We believe that
Senator LaFollette will admit his
mistake in judgment as to the
candidacy of Governor Davidson.
There will be no question as to
Gov. Davidson's election and we
hope that both half-breeds and
Stalwarts will drop the factional
feeling and unite together as Re-
publicans in the demand for good
government and clean admins
tration of all offices. We certainly
shall devote our energies, as we
have IN the past, in the interest of
good government, clean admins
tration of all offices free from graft
or the perversion of the will of the
people.

Over Holdings of Last Year.
In summing up the work of rebuild
ing San Francisco accomplished In the
eight months since the great fire, 1t
would be incomplete to proceed with
out referring to the record established
by the Bank of California. This bank.
always a leader among the financial
institutions of San Francisco, main
tanned it's record of public spiritedness
and as soon as the legal holidays pro-
claimed by Governor Pardee were over
and aiding with its resources the
stricken city, again wove itself into
the history of the municipality by the
rapidity with which it allied itself
with the new era
Scarcely had the embers of the great
fire died down before engineers were
set to work to clear up the rubbish
in the fine old building at California
and Liedersdorff streets. Temporary
f1oorings and walls were installed, par
titions set up and in a few weeks the
bank in sound financial condition
opened it's doors.
Not content with standing by the
city in her misfortune, the directors
Immediately authorized the architec-
tural firm of Bliss & Faville to con-
tinue with the erection of its new
bank building, which had already been
projected and which is now under the
course of construction at California
and Sansome streets, on the old site
of the bank. Upon it's completion, the
Bank of California will be housed in
without doubt, the finest structure OF
any bank on the Pacific Coast.
Founded in 1854. the Bank of Cali
fornia has always had identified with
it men of the strongest standing
financially and those possessing excep.
tional business ability at the head OF
its affairs. Each year the bank has
shown great increases in its valuable
holdings and volume OF business Each
year the books of the bank have shown
figures that have been thought the
high water mark and each year the
record has been broken
