NOT A TIME FOR cRoAk,No.

With the coming of the end OF the
year of 1907 the business world Is
considering how the United States
stands financially and commercially,
and of course the effect of the panic
in New York money market Is fac
tor In It's calculations. but despite
this unfortunate feature, the closest
investigation cannot alter the general
opinion that the outlook for the coun-
try's continuance of prosperity Is worry
blight indeed
Leading statesmen, fnanciers and
Sbuslness men generally feel positive.
despite the tight money market which
has prevailed, that the country is in
first class shape. They believe, and
so does the public, that this Is not
time for pessimiaic talk. On the
contrary, 1t is time for strengthening
of general confidence in the unques-
stionable financial soundness and
Astounding material prosperity of the
y United States. AS rule the bus
Z mess men are engaged In strictly

Whatever corporations may be engag-
cd in questionable transaction will be
looked after In due time, It Is believ-
cd. Federal and state legislation will
compel all corporations to steer clear
OF acts which are detrimental to the
public welfare, and new laws will at
+ the same time fully protect investors
Heretofore when there were panics
or business depressions. there was a
lack OF money for a long period. but
the difficulties that arose In conse-
quencc of the present disturbances In
& the New York market are being quick
~ overcome.
Money enough will be found with
the assistance OF the government tc

proportions that they cannot be de.

Curry Refuses to Issue
Commission to Crow


SACRAMENTO, Jan. lis there a
carefully laid scheme to defeat Cover
nor Pardee's appointment of four
Judges of the Superior Court and
enable Gillett to name the machine
Judge in San Francisco? is the ques-
ton that is adding the heads of the
politically weatherwise tonight.
The alleged plot to undo the good
work of Pardee came to light late this
afternoon when Secretary Of State Cur
ry declined to issue a commission TO
5. A. Crow of Santa Barbara, appointed
by Pardee to succeed Judge J. w. Tag
CART, elected to the Appellate bench in
the Second District. Pardee in appoint
ing the judges of the several Superior
courts proceeded upon the theory that
at IL o'clock last night those judges
or the Superior Court who had been
elected to the Appellate bench and
who had been qualified became judges
OF the Appellate Court, and consequent
~ no longer capable of sitting as
Judges of the Superior Courts.
This afternoon Crow. whom. Pardee
had appointed in opposition TO the ex-
pressed wishes of the machine. went
into the Secretary of States office, ten

the commissions of Elston, Nye and
Lindley, declined to do a like service
Tor the new Judge on the ground that
Secretary of State Curry. who was abb
sent, must sign the commission. Crow
did not wish to take any unnecessary
chances of losing the bird almost in
hand. so he waited an hour or two for
Curry.
The Secretary of State mildly, but
firmly. declined to accept Crows five or
TO affix his name to the commission
He told Crow that he was not at all

appointment and that he must decline

Patronage Costs
State a Fortune

SACRAMENTO, Jan. 1.-THE
action of the caucuses of the Sem
ate and House this morning on
the question of patronage means
that the State of California must
pay nearly $1,000 a day for iegis-
iative attaches. OF this amount
more than $500 IN within the gift
of members. This is "their pat
rOnage," and they can give out
as they please without regard TO
the fitness or competency of the
persons they wish 10 reward at
the expense of the state.
Republican Senator'S get S25
day ench. There are 'thirty-four
of these, and they have kindly
made up one additional dish of
patronage for the Democratic NH
nority. This makes the total
thirty-five times s25, or 1915. The
Republican Assemblymen get S1S
day, and they, no less kind than
their brothers of the Senate, pro-
pose to set one dish for the six
Democrats. As John Wrestling of
the late Independence League is
included with the Republicans,
this means seventy-five times $13,
or n total of 1915 day. The COM
biDed patronage of both houses
will, therefore, be $3.50 for every
day the Legislature is In session.
To this must be added the salaries
of the statutory officers of the
two houses, running the total up
another 500.
Expressed in figures, the action
taken in caucus today means that
for sixty-day session the State
must pay more than $4,000 for
patronage, besides footing the
bills for statutory officers and
paying the legislators both sal
aries and mileage. 1t is being
suggested here that this is re-
venge on the people for defeating
the patronage limit constitutional
amendment, which carried with 1t
provision giving legislators
$1,000 a term.

BELIEVE SOL DER
SHOT MACkL|N
Negro Corporal Arrested
After Boys Find Blood
stained Khaki Jacket
OFFICERS CONVINCED

GUTHRIE, Ok, Jan. IA State Cap
ital special from Fort Reno says:
The finding of a khaki jacket, one
ksleeve of which was covered with
blood and punctured presumably by a
bullet. led to the arrest this afternoon
of Corporal Knowles of the Twenty
fifth Infantry (colored) on the charge
of murderously assaulting Captain Ed
gar B. Macklin.
When arrested the negro officer was
| found to have severe flesh wound in
the wrist which he is said to have
been treating for over three weeks.
| The wound in the wrist is declared to
have been inflicted by the same size
bullet as went through the sleeve of
the jacket which bore Knowles mi
tials.
The officers at the fort and FL Reno
police do not doubt that the negro
corporal was the masked man who on
the night of December 81 called Mack
lin to the back door Of his home and
shot him twice.
The jacket which led to Knowles ar
rest was found near the fort Sunday
by two boys
Knowles was given a hearing before
United States Commissioner Lowe at
Fort Reno tonight. At midnight the
hearing was adjourned until tomorrow
morning at 10 O'clock, when the pris-
oner will be given a chance to offer his
defense.
While the officers decline to tell what
passed in the room where the examina-
ton was held, it is stated upon good
authority that Captain Macklin is posi-
tive that the prisoner is the man who
shot him.
Major Penrose. and Captain Macklin,
Mrs. Macklin, Chris Madsen, chief clerk
in United States Marshal Abernathy's
office; Willie Johnson, a negress cook
for the Macklins, and Miss Aurora
Bachs, hospital matron, were the wit
nesses examined tonight. They testi-
fed regarding events leading up to the
shooting
l. No other arrests have been made but
it is known that the police of FL Reno
are watching a discharged soldier, who
is to be arrested when the other hear
ing is completed. 1t is said that
Knowles is expected to give testimony
duplicating him.

a surplus in a public treasury without
growing coyetous, voted itself $25 a

years ago. Even the scattered six con-
stituting the Democratic minority were
not neglected. Their share was a total
of SIS. This seemed to mean that it
takes six Democrats to equal one Re-
publican, but the organization consid-
ers itself amazingly generous and will
resent objection as shameless ingrati-
tude.
In the lower house the demand for
patronage also reached unrespectable
proportions. Many of the members
wanted SIS a day, Sc more than the
allowance of the last session, but the
country members cried TOO muchm
and a compromise was made on S13.
The Democratic minority wanted some
of the pie, and the six representatives
OF the party Of Jefferson will probably
be awarded $13 worth of patronage TO
divide as they see fit.
Now that the Legislature is organ
lied and Governor Partiee has given
out all but one Superior Court Judge
ship, the organization is in no great
hurry to inaugurate Governor Gillett.
1t was definitely decided today to hold
the ceremonies Wednesday at noon in
the Clunie Opera-house. The hurry-up
plan was once considered seriously,
but was rejected yesterday when it was
figured out that no amount of haste
could save the Judgeships within reach
of Pardee.
