new FRISCO MAYOR
UNIVERSITY DEAN SELECTED TO
SUCCEED SCHnITz.
Schmitz Continues to Make APP
pointments, and is Recognized
By Chief of Police Diman-An-
nouncement By District At
torney Langdon.

San Francisco, July 17.-Dr. Ed
ward R. Taylor, physician and lawyer,
dean Of the Hastings law school OF the
University of California, was yester-
day by the hoard of supervisors, cleo
ted mayor of San Francisco, and by
the open avowal Of the bribery-graft
prosecution the so-called reign Of the
'big stick" came to an end.
DR.. Taylor was the third man to
whom the election was offered by Ru-
dolph Spreckels and District Attorney
Langdon. His election came as q
complete surprise to the city, as at no
time in the past three weeks of daily
guessing was his name mentioned by
anyone outside of the secret councils
of the district attorney and his halt
dozen associates. The Office was ten
dered to DR.. Taylor few minutes
after O'Clock and his ACCEPTANCE was
In the hands of Mr.. Langdon and Mr..
Spreckels before o'clock.
The district attorney dictated for
the Associated Press the following
statement:
Long NSSI0SnI OF lily
We feel that San Francisco is to
be congratulated upon having public
servant Of the character and standing
Of DR.. Edward r. Taylor. A resident
of San Francisco for 45 years, his
heart is in the city's future and the
high services that he can and will
render this stricken city will, I trust
be fully appreciated by grateful
people.
CDR. Taylor is in no sense a politi-
clan, but is man of great learning
and fine executive ability, coupled
with unquestioned integrity and I'M
selfish devotion to the public welfare.
''The wide authority that has
temporarily lodged in the district at
torney's Office will now be restricted
within the bounds prescribed by
law and the extraordinary functions
hitherto directed from this depart
ment will, to our great satisfaction,
have come to an end"
Schmitz Still Factor
Mayor Eugene E. Schmitz, who
was lecently convicted of extortion,
is yet a factor to be reckoned with
in the solving Of the municipal prob
lem. Yesterday he appointed Samuel
Sawyer, a member Of the typograph-
ical union, q supervisor to succeed
Charles Boxton, who resigned to be
appointed temporary mayor by the
graft prosecution. It is announced
that Mayor Schmitz will appoint sue
cessers to the remaining fifteen super
visors, who will be forced by the dis
trict attorney to resign. The city will
then have two governments, one head
ed by Mayor Taylor, the other by
Mayor Schmitz, who claims he ia not
incapacitated until after the court Of
last resort has confirmed his convic-
ton. It is held by the prosecution
that the conviction of Mayer Schmitz
in the trial court incapaoitated him
from further holding Office, and on
that theory has chosen Mayor Taylor.
Chief Of Police Oman announces
that he will recognize no one but
Schmitz as mayor.

The Correspondence
The correspondence between Mr..
Mills and the attorney generals office
explains the situation. Mr.. Mills
wrote as follows:
"Will you please advise me if mon.

''For your information I might add
that I have been advised that our
educational institutions collect money
from various sources, such as entrance
fees, fees for diplomas, room rent at
dormitories, law school tuition fees,
ETC.. which never finds its way into
the state treasury; and that the penal,
charitable and reformatory institu-
tions collect considerable sums from
different sources, such as the sale OF
farm produce, ETC., which those in

Of which no accounting whatever Is

GIGANTIC MONOPOLY

HUEs IN HEADGEAR.
Combinations That Look Pretty In
Fall and Winter Hats.

Violet is often combined with white,
with gray and with certain blues. One
model In white felt had its wide droop-
ing brim bound in violet velvet of a
lovely soft shade and was trimmed in
three huge knots or choux Of velvet in
three shades of violet.
Such big velvet choux in contrast
Ing colors or several shades of one
color are trimming much favored for
wide brimmed hats of moderately
high crown and otherwise without
trimming. Well developed, the idea is
very effective and the Partisan millin-
ers attain striking and beautiful color
schemes in this way.
Great velvet pansies, morning glor-
les, etc, are used as flowers, as they
have been upon the summer hats, and
one finds the summer fad for dead
white flowers and foliage inclosed in
velvet flowers whose blossoms and
foliage are white. Big roses are still
in demand, but feathers of all imagin-
able-and unimaginable-kinds, wide,
soft ribbons of faille, satin, etc, will
probably be more generally used than
flowers.
Wings come under the comprehen-
sive head of feathers and are shown
in forms and colorings even handsom-
er than those of the spring

Household Helps.

Egg spoons that are stained should
be rubbed with damp salt before pol
ishing.
If bedstead creaks at each move
ment of the sleeper, remove the Stats
and wrap the ends of each in old
newspapers.
Have a small horseshoe magnet fast
ened to the end of tape of ribbon OF
sufficient length so that it can be drop
ped to the floor to pick up scissors
and needles.
Turn your coffee mill down very
tightly, fill the hopper with granu-
lated sugar, grind it through once or
twice, or even three times, and you
have an excellent powdered sugar.
To clean a carpet without taking up
take cup half full Of cornmeal mixed
with salt and sweep well. When spots
are left take oxgall or ammonia. Both
are very good things to make the car
pet as bright as a new one.
Iron rust on stoves which have not
been in use this summer can easily be
removed by going over the parts with
coarse sandpaper, afterward covering
the places with hot tallow or any
warm grease. The next day wash with
hot soapsuds in which there is lib
eral supply of kerosene. Tenders,
CRATES and stoves can be cleaned in
this manner.

WHAT THE FARMERS WANT.
National Congress In Session at Okla
homa City Adopt Resolutions Ex-
pressing Their Ideas.

Oklahoma City, Oct. 22.--The first
work of the Farmers National con-
gress Monday was the adoption OF res
olutions. AS adopted the resolutions
favor reciprocity with foreign nations
thereby enlarging the market for
American products; the initiative and
referendum; the prohibition of the
dealing in futures in agricultural prod
ucts; the Improvement of all water
ways and good roads. They oppose
the indiscriminate free distribution or
seeds by congressman. A resolution
asked congress to extend the time o.
payment by the farmers who bid IN
the Kiowa, Comanche Indian lands
was approved.
Congressman Charles r. Davis, st.
Peter, MINI, addressed the farsers
on the promotion Of secondary techni-
cal education by federal aid. Con-
gressman Davis has already intro
duced a bill in congress for such por-
pose. He was followed by Prof. w. r.
Hart, OIL the Massachusetts agricultur-
al college, Amherst, Mass, and Hon.
F. A. Cotton, state superintendent OF
public instruction of Indiana.
Many excursions were made by the
farmers into the country Sunday by
far the greater number visiting mod
el farm o ned by Ewers white in .ne
valley 20 miles east of the city.

WHEN MlLESToNES CHEER.
They Always GLADDEN. the Heart of
the Pedestrian.

In a walking trip milestone along
the way is the most companionable
fellow in the world; your spirits rise
as you near him as though you were
about to greet human friend, and
they keep almost consistently on his
high level till his brother a mile dis
tant advances to meet you.
And when you overlook one of this
friendly company because Of an en-.
croaching bank or screening boughs,
says the Travel Magazine, his neigh
Dor further on comes to you doubly
welcome. At the latter end of this
passage in the journey your spirits
flag a trihe as though oppressed by a
sense of desertion. You may even
scowl at the overhanging bank which
is more than a party to this conceal
ment.
Those worthy persons who attend to
the roads should see to it that every
milestone within their province stands
out frankly from its leafy background.
Observance of this, however, would
rob the wayfarer of that leap of the
heart which is his when the stone
tells the story of two miles done rather
than one. For however much the land
scape and the minute world at his feet
may claim the footfarer's admiration
he is still keenly alive to the virtue
of decent distances covered in his
days journey.

Small, former president of the Com
mercial Telegraphers' union, was
hissed and jeered by GOO members OF
the Chicago local union before whom
he appeared Sunday afternoon in an
effort to justify his action in seeking
to end the strike. Nearly a third of
those present left the hall after
shouting insults at their deposed lead
er. When order had been restored,
action was taken, increasing the as
sessments upon leased wire operators
from one days pay per week, as at
present, to two days pay per week,
for the benefit of the strike treasury,
and four operators were suspended
from the union for non-payment OF
their assessments.
