MILITARY TAX
rs TOO HEAVY
BRITISH DELEGATE PRESENTS A
SET OF RESOLUTIONS
CALLS ATTENTION TO GROWING
BURDENS
Russian, French, Spanish and Ameri-
can Delegations Formally
Indorse the Senti-
ment

THE HAGUE, Aug. 1.-THE peace con-
ference today unanimously adopted the
resolutions of Sir Edward Fry, the British
delegate, confirming the resolution of the
first peace conference regarding the limit
alton of military burdens since then have
been considerably augmented, 1t is highly
desirable that governments earnestly re-
sumo a study of this question.
The conference listened closely to Sir
Edwards speech, wherein he recalled that
the convoking of the peace conference
had primarily in view the stopping of the
augmentation of ornaments. He an
nounced that Great Britain is ready to
communicate it's plans regarding new
warships to all powers inclined to do
likewise.
The Russian, French, Spanish and
United States delegations formally in
dorsed the British resolutions.
NJ. Nolidoff, head Of the Russian dele
cation and president of the conference,
said the disarmament question was as i'm
mature now as in 1899. Discussion of it
would be not only sterile but injurious to
the cause of peace, because 1t would show
the divergence of opinions, although in
reality unity of intention exists which
may one day lead to their realization. M.
Nelidoff therefore proposed the unanimous
adoption of the resolution, which was
voted accordingly.

Los ANGELES HERALD: SUNDAY MORNING. AUGUST 49, 1907

However, with the authority to refuse
or grant in any territory resting in
the hands of the same body which
would pass such an ordinance, the
consideration of the ordinance is UNI
necessary.
You ask for a suggestion of a prac-
teal plan to protect the aqueduct.
There is only one which suggests it
self to me, and that is to convince
the board of supervisors that the
granting of such a license is injuri-
Gus and unwise. They would then re-
fuse to grant a license there.
AS to the effect of saloons in the
district away from police protection, 1
believe my personal opinions are too
well known in this connection to need
further expression.
[ believe l have answered all your
questions. Very respectfully,
j. d. FREDERICKS,
District Attorney.
The letter of Captain Fredericks ex,
plains the attitude he has taken with ref
erence to the decision of the board, al
leging that 1t did have jurisdiction in the
matter of the petition, and that no "spe
cial legislation" was required, as tn,
board of supervisors claimed was neces
sary.
1t is not known as yet what action the
Municipal league will take on the recep
ton of this letter from Mr.. Fredericks.

RENEW AGITATION FOR
AGRICULTURAL PARK PLAN
City VIII Be Asked to Spend $4,000
in Doing Preliminary Work on
Big Southwestern Recrea-
ton Grounds

Renewed efforts will be made before the
councils finance committee by property
owners interested in making Agricultural
park place for the people.
If the city will spend $4,000 or $4,000, or
allow it for the park commissioners, a
fine showing can be made, and it is stated
that there will be no trouble in inducing
the men on the state board to lease the
park to the city for term of fifty years.
which is the longest in which a lease can
run in California.
Everything depends on a decision to be
handed down by the supreme court this
winter.
In the lower courts the people have won,
and if the same decision follows the great
playground will be a reality instead of a
dream
The legal issue is merely whether the
title to the park shall rest with a state
board acting for the people of the Sixth
agricultural district or with board act
ing for private individuals

A SMOKELESS CITY

Many things have been written and
said of the natural beauty and charms
of Los Angeles. Some unpleasant ex-
periences have been had and unkind
things said about our smoke nuisance
and that it Gnust cease.
Our city has been censured for not
controlling the smoke better and for
not prosecuting the owners of furnaces
that daily belch forth great clouds OF
smoke and SCOT, all without material
benefit.
Some of our citizens are now so
aroused that they declare Los Angeles
must be the first model and ideal
smokeless city of this country.
Mr.. Fred Starr declares that by De-
cember, 1908, Los Angeles will be
smokeless and sootless city, clean and
pure"
1t will be made so by all the power
and heating plants being supplied with
power and heat from the ocean waves
by the Starr Wave Motor, now being
built at Redondo.
This is a reality that can only be
comprehended by seeing the Starr
Model Wave Motor at 224 H. w. He'll

Fourth streets.

CHARTER REVLSERS
READY FOR SUMMONS
MAY NOT CONFER TILL EARLY IN
SEPTEMBER
Commissioners Favor New Rather
Than Patched Up Charter-Dis-
cuss Galveston and Des
-Moines Plans

Now that charter revision seems
nearer with the full complement of the
primary committee chosen, the next step
will be for the formal call to conference.
Mayor A. c. Harper will issue this call
probably late this month, throwing the
first meeting into the first week in Sep
TENDER.
The delay is-due to the fact primarily
that several councilmen are absent from
the city and some of the other commits
sioners will be away on their vacations
this week.
: The general opinion of those selected
seem to be that an entire new charter
rather than a patched-up affair will be
the right thing. The strongest support
ers of this view is City Attorney Leslie
Hewitt, whose advice in all sessions will
carry much weight.
Singularly enough the former city at
torney, w. B. Mathews, under whom
Hewitt was once chief deputy will also
be on the commission, having been Sc
lected as one of its three representative
by the chamber of commerce.
Mayor Harper has expressed himself in
the past as believing that when the men,
bership is finally selected the medical
association and the bar association should
have representation on the commission.
1t is probable that the councils repre-
sentatives may be eliminated altogether
as their recommendations can be put
through other persons and the friction
that exists in the political parties repre-
scented in the aldermanic family will thus
be eliminated.
The Galveston plan of governing by
commissioners, the modified Des Moines
plan and other modern forms of handling
cities will all be discussed in time.

RATTLERS AND BEAR
ENLIvEN A PICNIC
Boys Out for Day Start War of Anni-
hIIation Among Snakes and
Then Capture
Cub

PORT JERvIS, N. Y, Aug. 17.-Boys
at a picnic at Greeley Pa, on Wednes-
day had rare fun. Much of 1t was due
to the fact that there has not been
such a drought in Pike county Tor
fifteen years The Delaware looks like
a lost river, the beds of the smaller
streams are dry.
The picnic was held on Rattlesnake
creek, in which so little water remains
that it does not hide the boulders on
it's bed. Every boy had q putty blower,
made from a straight piece of alder,
from which the pith had been punched.
leaving a caliber big enough for bird
shot.
Soon the boys discovered a colony of
rattlesnakes preparing to cross the
creek toward them. Every Pike coun-
ty boy who is not nature faker knows
that a rattlesnake hates to wet 1rs
rattles. The boys hid in the bushes
and waited. Twelve rattlesnakes were
in the approaching bunch. The biggest
started ahead to reconnoiter. the others
waited on the bank.
The scout snake made his tortuous
way from boulder to boulder, and
finally his rattles, dry, reached the
picnic grounds. He ratified wireless
"alI right" to the eleven, which crossed

putty blowers on the snakes and hreu
fast and accurate broadsides.
Maddened by the hail of shot the
snakes turned on one another, and soon
every one lay dead killed by the venom
of each other. The twelve snakes
combined length was sixty-five feet.
But this was not all the fun. At
luncheon the tempting odor of honey
on the sandwiches attracted very

neighboring wood to the picnic ground.
The boys fed it on bread and honey
and took home a real but docile Teddy

Union brewery at Aliquippa yesterday a.
vat of spoiled beer was emptied into the
river. A short distance below the beer
collected in an eddy at the head of a

antics were performed by the fish in the
pool. They darted in zig gag fashion,
leaping high in the air and performed
other unusual feats. Some were OBJ
served in pairs with their fins interlocked,
swimming about aimlessly, while others
darted out into midstream only to return
with companions to get more Of the beer

Several men and boys who gathered
along the river bank at this point had
no difficulty in catching number of the
fish, which seemed intoxicated.
