YATES WAS RIGHT.

It is apparent now that Governor
Yates was right when he made his
charge against the federal trust in
this state There is as much Of a
trust among the federal officeholders
as there is in Standard Oh.
When Yates made this charge it
did not carry the weight with it that
II would have carried had not Mr..
Yates been a candidate. II was as
sumed. and quite naturally. that Mr.
Yates might make matters worse
than they were and even do it hon
estly because he had an interest in
the result.
Such an assumption Is no longer
tepable
There is no question as to this fed
eral trust n Is, dominating towns
and cities. and congressional districts.

congressman. They are supporting
only these who ara in favor Of their
own retention in office Even the
federal courts are not immune from
the charge Of delaying important &C

Atoms, Elections, Ions.

The phenomena of the Crookes
tube Roentgen rays, and latterly of
radium, inexplicable by the chemi
cal theories of decade ago, have
rendered necessary the coming OF
several new words, which have
taken their place in the vocabulary
of the modern physicist, says the
Scientific American. We hear SO
much these days of electrons and
ions and their relation to the old.
time supposedly indlvisible atom
that the time seems ripe for few
simple definitions condensed from a
recent paper by Prof. Soddy.
The first and oldest conception of
the ultimate unit of matter is the
atom, the smallest particle of an ele-
ment capable of separate existence
The essential feature of Dalton's con-
ception was that the atoms of the
same element are all exactly alike in
mass and every other property, but
are recognizably different from the
atoms of any other kind of element.
The statement will be found In text
books of chemistry written long be-
fore the recent discoveries were fore
Swallowed, that If 1t is ever found
possible to transmute any one kind
of atom, that is, any one kind of ele-
mentary matter, into any other kind,
there is little doubt that the same
means would be sufficient to trans
mute or decompose the other ele-
ments
The modern conception of the ul-
innate unit is the electron, and this,
although by origin an electrical con-
ception, is in reality a material con-
ceptiOn no less than the atom of mat
ter The electron could be defined
as the smallest existence known
capable of isolation and of free
movement through space 1t is a
definite amount or charge" of mega
tive electricity; in a word, the small
est possible amount known to exist;
for electricity, no less than matter,
has been shown to consist of discrete
particles or units, and not to occupy
space continuously. Unlike the atoms
VI llldICCl, Olly OIlC hluu Oh GIGcCrOD
is known, consisting of the same
amount of charge of negative cleo
tricity with identical properties in all
its various manifestations
1t is certain that each atom of
matter contains in the normal condi-
ton at least one electron, which it is
capable of losing, aud conversely that
it may unite with at least one cleo
tron more than it normally possesses
without deep-seated material change.
An atom with one or more electrons
less than it possesses in the normal
state is positively charged and is Of
ten called a positive ion. Similarly an
atom with one or more eiectron in
excess is a negative ion.

FUTURE SAN FRANCISCO.
Plans Elaborated by Rurnham Of
Chicago to Go Into Effect.

San Francisco, laid desolate In
forty-eight hours. will arise Phoenix
like, from her ashes and become 1.-The
most beautiful city in the world"
So declared William H. Croker,
one Of the great capitalists Of the
stricken city.
San Francisco within five years
will be greater, finer, and more beau
tiful than ever" he declared when
asked what is to be the future of the
city by the Golden Gate. This ca
lamity will only give the opportunity
to make more splendid city than
people have ever dreamed of.
''It is preposterous to even sug-
gest the abandonment of the city.
San Francisco by reason of it's Local
ton and it's harbor is the natural
metropolis of the Pacific coast God
made it SO. You will soon see finer
and better city than ever. D. O.
Mills, the Spreckels family-every-
body | KNOWS determined to re-
build at once; to rebuild San Fran
cisco stronger, better, and finer than
ever.
"Burnham of Chicago has been at
work for the last two years on plans
for the improvement of San Fran
cisco, to broaden some streets,
straighten others, and carry out a
general harmonious scheme Of fire
proof buildings of uniform height
and style. The present calamity,
frightful as it is, only clears the
way for this plan to be carried out
THE greatest obstacle in rebuild
ing the city will probably be in the
way Of capital. Naturally investors
will be reluctant to put their money
IL building enterprises where the
hazard is SO great as it appears to be
on the Pacific coast.
But if builders manifest a dispo-
sition to put their money in the re-
building Of the city there would be
no difficulty in getting contractors to
undertake the task. One trouble will
be the excessive cost of construction
work. High prices are certain to ore
vail for long time, and this applies
both to material and labor"

Snails "The Poor Mans OYSTER"


Properly cooked the snail is both
nutritious and tasty. If, however, the
suggestion that it should form an
article Of diet here were seriously
acted upon we fear that the supply
in this country would prove to be
short of the demand But, doubtless
the snail could be cultivated, as is the
oyester, when it was found that it had
gained a considerable patronage. The
snail has, indeed, been called 'the
poor mans OYSTER" though we DO
not remember to have seen it eaten
raw.
We know, however, says the Ian
Get, that it makes an excellent fish
sauce. Possibly also a few snails in
steak and kidney pudding would
increase the tastiness of this popular
food. Care must be exercised in the
choice of the snail for food purposes,
as it is we'll known that snails feed
on poisonous plants, and it is the Gus
tom in France to allow few days
to elapse after they have been taken
from their feeding ground in order
that any poisonous matter may be
eliminated.
Compared with the oyster, the snail
contains about 100 per cent more nu-
tritious substances. The suggestion,
therefore, that the snail should be
used for food is not merely sentl-
mental.-London Chronicle.
