GOLD, SILVER, COPPER

These are the words more nearly synonymous with Wealth" than any others in our language.
 In the last decade, which witnessed an increase of about 23 per cent in the population of the United States and an increase of about S7 per cent in manu- featuring, the value of the output of the gold. silver and copper mines in- creased more than 120 per cA1t. bring ing the total up to the Staggering amount of $318.254,360.
 One of the Chicago papers recently published a partial list of the mines of this country and Mexico, showing the dividends paid to date. Sixty-six of these mines, nearly all of which were either gold. silver or copper, have paid to their stockholders in dividends from one to forty times the face value of the entire stock issued, while practi- cally all of them are less than thirty years old and many les than ten.

WOMEN JOIN PARADE

MONTPELIER, France, June S.-A
monster demonstration by wine grow
ers today marked the climax of the
situation which has arisen because OF
a demand by the growers that the gov
ernment stop the widespread wnole-
sale adulteration of wine.
At the meeting at Perpignan on May
10 resolution was passed that II the
government did not give full satisfac-
ton to the demands of the growers
civil strike would be inaugurated June
10. At meeting held after the parade
today Madeline Albert referred to this
resolution and announced that the time
had come for action. She invited the
assembled multitude to swear solidarity
of action and Immediately every hand
was raised and cries OF I'VE will stand
or fall together" and 1--WE will not
pay the taxes" were everywhere heard.
The Mayor of Narbonne will be the
first to open the strike. He and the
entire municipal council will resign
tomorrow after having previously dis
missed all municipal employees. Others
viii follow suit in the course of a few
days.
The ragged army" has been arriving
during the last two days and nights
1t slept in the public buildings, in
churcheS pldced at ltS olSpoSal ana IN
parks and squares.
The railroads provided more than
400 special trains to bring the people
here.
At the time fixed for the parade the
people lined up at the appointed places
without the slightest disorder. 1t is
estimated there were from 100000 to
100000 people in the procession. A
feature of the parade was the large
proportion of women participating.
Groups from various cities bore ban
ners with various inscriptions and car
ried collins, guillotines, etc
After the meeting the people dis
persed and commenced their return
homeward in the same perfect order
that had previously been maintained.

ARMY TENTS AGAIN To
SERVE As CLASsROOMS
Pupils of Franklin School
Are to Be Housed
Under Canvas

More than 200 children were de-
prived OF school accommodations
through the burning of the Franklin
school In Eighth street Saturday night
and this morning they will assemble
for instruction in army tents pitched
on the school lot. These tents are
from the equipment of the refugee
summer school, maintained last year
in Golden Gate park. Two of the rooms
in the school escaped extensive DAM
age and can be used.
Aaron Altman Of the board of edu-
cation yesterday had workmen clear
ing up the debris and drying the ruins
so that the children who belong to
these classes may be safely sheltered.
Mrs. Wood. the principal of the school
will assign the tent clases this morn
ing.
Altman said that the tented classes
could be continued without particular
hardship to the children until school
closed on June %. During the vaca-
ton, which lasts until August 19, the
school will be refitted.
The pupils of the Franklin school
have had a picturesque career since the
classes were re-established in the lot
at Eighth and Bryant streets.
During the summer vacation the
board of education will put many addi-
tions to schools in the unburnt district
where school congestion is now great
est The board is to call for bids with
in a few weeks for Eve new school
houses.

To SUBMIT ORDINANCE
FOR SEIZURE OF LAND
Jackson Has Measure Ready
for Introduction at
City Council

OAKLAND, June SIN view of vari-
Gus legal obstacles which have arisen
TO prevent the city from consummating
plans to seize the Oakland water front
lying between the Western Pacific hlt
and the Southern Pacific broad gauge
by Councilman JScKson. Tomorrow
night Jackson will introduce an ordi-
nance in the city council to cover the
proposed taking of constructive, If not
actual, possession of the lands. This
ordinance viii supplant the resolution
which was adopted last Monday night
by the city council.
That measure did not conform to the
law. 1t provided that the seizure
should be made by the city engineer
and no provision was made for legally
incurring the necessary expense. Since
the resolution was adopted the law
has been disclosed to the councilmen,
who found that not only an ordinance
of authorization was necessary, but
that the board of public works had the
sole jurisdiction In the matter.
Further, the work must be let by
contract after bids have been received.
Councilman B. H. Pendleton, chair
man of the finance committee, said to-
night that he was utterly opposed to
the proposed move. He said:
''The land which It is proposed to
take does not belong to the city of
Oakland. The supreme court of Cali
fornia and the United States circuit
court of appeals have decided that the
state owns the land; that Oakland holds
only a 'wharfing out privilege, and
that this can be revoked at the call of
the state Besides 1 am opposed to go
ing out to that place at the end of
nowhere. We don't want any wharves
away out at the edge of the city and
remote from the commercial center. We
want wharves close at hand. and, If the
city is going to spend money for wharf
improvements, let it be done where the
merchants can get immediate benefit
from the facilities"
Pendleton declared that the city, II 1t
desired to maintain constructive owner
the space selected. and thus avoid the
tire area. would not be permitted to
set even those piles without a contest
with the state, which, he was sure,
would assert control. More than that,
Pendleton insisted that the wharf prof.
ect as suggested by Councilman Jack
son would compel the city to recog-
nize the Oakland water front company's
title to the strip between low water
and high water marks, a question still
in litigation in the courts between the
city and the water front company. PEN
dleton declared that he was satisfied a
strong opposition had developed In the
council to the proposed seizure, since
new light had been shed upon it by the
city's water front counsel.

UNIONS At WAR OVER
THE MISSING CHARTER
Linernen Defy Their Parent
Organization in Order
to Continue Strike

BY unanimous vote. taken early
yesterday morning, the members OF
electrical workers union No. Isl de-
cided to continue their sympathetic
strike with the telephone girls against
the telephone company, in spite of the
bitter opposition made by the inter-
national officers During the stormy
session the unions charter disappeared
from its frame on the wall. 1t has not
yet been recovered and the local union
alleges that the international officers
made away with 1t.
A delegation from the telephone girls
union waited upon the electricians. The
girls sent brief but impressive note
to the officers informing them that II
they refused to continue the sympa-
thetic strike the best thing they coul
do would be to get out of town.
Whether the men struck out of gal
lantry or whether they thought it WAS
their duty to stand by the girls was
not explained. Before the final vote
was taken, International Vice President
Michael ]. Sullivan and Delegate J. G.
Kelly urged the men to return to work
at once, threatening to supply the tele-
phone company with union men at
short notice il the strike were con-
tinued.
Both Sullivan and Kelly made
speeches. They attempted to explain
to. the men that the telephone company
had been and was living up to it's
agreement with the union and that
therefore there was no ground upon
which they could justly continue the
strike.
But the speeches Of the easterners
were completely overshadowed by the
addresses of Local President ]. F. Leon
ard and Business Agent H Wolf Both
impressed upon the assembled throng
that the strike was just. inasmuch as
the local union had no binding agree
ment with the company and that the
fight Of the telephone girls warranted
their leaving their posts and seeing
the matter through.
When the meeting adjourned 1t was
discovered that the charter was not
in Its accustomed place on the wall. A
search of several hours failed to reveal
its whereabouts and the members Of
the local union accused the interna-
tional officers with having spirited the
document away. The latter Indignantly
denied this charge.
