ARMY LIFE.
Editor THE CHRoN1cLK:

! Editor The CHRONICLE:
AS there is little doing in camp
at present / would like to submit
few lines to my old home paper
of few things a soldier does in
the army. Many people have an
idea that soldiers life is all play
and no work, but | will take the
liberty to reverse that belief, and
wish to add that I speak from
experience, being an enlisted man
for two years myself.
A soldiers life is not bed of
rosesby any means. This was fully
demonstrated during maneuversa at
Camp Emmet Crawford month
ago. We had to hustle out in the
morning at 4 o'clock to fight sham
battles until sundown, without a
bite to eat, and hike about twenty
miles in the bargain.
We had two months of this ex-
citing experience, and repaired
back to Fort Russell only to start
in week on a ten day road march,
to wake in the morning with 2 feet
of snow around our tents. Then
again, in the dead of winter, to
turn out at midnight to walk post
for two hours with 4 feet of snow
on the ground.
No, perish the thought, that we
lay in our hunks just waiting for
our pay. When a man completes
three years of service in the army
of your Uncle Samuel, he is fit for
any kind of work.
/ wish to submit song recently
composed by some of the boys and
sung to the tune of School Days:
Army days, army days, rotten, bum old
army days,
Drilling and scouting and carrying rocks
With our stomach as empty as dry
goods box.
We were soldiers, so they say,
One slice of bacon every day,
But the punk is so bum, we want some
slum,
And the biscuits are on the rum.
ZETTRY S. PoTTs,
Fort d. A. Russell, Wyoming.

SHIFTING CENTERS OF FIFTY YEARS

traordinary changes in California's pop
ulati0n centers, industries and CONNER
cial channels are c0nSidereds
Today, according to the estimate of
DR.. N. X. Foster, Secretary of the State
Board of Health, there are more than
one million people in the counties border
ing on San Francisco Bay. These coun-
ties are printed in black in the lower
map. This population is over half of
that of the whole state. Nine-tenths of
these million residents are in counties
that either border on Alameda county
or are few miles distant across the
bay.
The population has shifted west. The
mining counties that once controlled the
state have scarcely grown. San Fran
cisco Bay has become center of world
interest.
California requires capitol suitable
to the conditions of today, not one chosen
to suit conditions that have passed away.
The San Francisco call., 1908-11-02

The three counties printed black In
the upper map were, in 1850, according
to the United States Census, the most pop.
ulous counties of California. They had
1854 residents, or more than half OF
the total of the state, which was re-
ported as 92,597. The five lightly
shaded counties together with the three
named contained 75,429 people, or over
four-fiftbs of 92,597.
The interests of California were then
centered in her mines. Agriculture was
of secondary Importance. Nearly all
mercantile pursuits had relation to
mining.
Sacramento was selected as the seat
of government In the early SOS, in or
der that the capital should be near the
masses. Should not the same argument
prevail today, especially when the ex.

Dear Sir:
In my judgment the presence OF the State
university in Austin has added very much to
the intellectual, social and moral advance
ment Of the city. think it is generally
conceded that Austin, in thesel parti iou1ars,
enjoys the superiority Of any other city in
Texas. Public men who have returned to Austin
after a number OF years. absence state to ne
that they have noted marked change for the
better, which they attribute to the Uni!
versity.
While cannot discover that the Uni
versity exercises any direct elevating inf1u-
upon the members Of the Legislature dur
ing their residence in Aust In, an OF the
opinion that the presence Of the University
created better environment here and that,
therefore, the University indirectly affects
the Legislators. ~
The presence OF the legislature in Aus
tin has certainly not exercised any unfavor-
able influence over the student body. Many
distingui shed come to the Capital during
the session Of the Legislature; many able men
to the Legislature as members. There Is
no question but that the presence OF the
legislature in Austin gives the students many
opportunities TO study the operations Of gov
ernment. q should strongly advocate bringing
the University and the Legislature into the
same community gherevereit is practicable.
There are many advantages and no disadvan-
tages.
Sincerely yours

MANY REASONS FOR new
CENTER OF GOVERNMENT
Economy to State and PeopIe-Assuranee Of
Better Legislation Convenience to Z
Public Library for Masses

public schools who congregate in
Berkeley in the summer to attend the
university summer school.
Mutual Benefit
1t would benefit both the State uni
versity and the legislature. The leg
islature could see and realize more
clearly the needs of the university
and the presence of the university
with it's intellectual surroundings
would be of advantage to the legisla-
ture, to the State officials and conse-
quently to the State.
Better Location
The capitol is now located where
few people ever see it, If a noble
capitol were constructed at Berke-
ley, overlooking the Golden gate, 1t
would be visible from the homes OF
vast population; it could be seen and
visited without inconvenience, by the
people of the southern and the north
ern portions of the State upon their
frequent trips to the Bay region; it
would be in sight of every tourist
visiting San Francisco. This would
create civic pride, and better the
standard of citizenship, and at the
same time would be of untold adver-
tising value to the state.
New Business and Population Center
Not only economy and convenience
but good business efficiency dictate
that the various branches of the State
government, the state commissions,
and the legislature, be located as con-
veniently together and as near the bus
mess center of the State and the CEN
ter of population as possible
New Capital Is Inevitable
The present capitol is inadequate in
size and not modern in construction.
In the last few years three hundred
and twenty thousand dollars have been
spent in repairing it. A large appro-
priation is now needed to finish these
repairs. The present charge for main
tenance and repairs would pay the
interest and sinking fund on an amount
sufficient to build a new building.
Since new building must be built, it
will be economy to build now and
save further useless expenditure on
the present structure.
No Expense to Small Tax Payers
This change can probably be ac-
complished without the expenditure
of single cent by the ordinary tax
payer. The new constitutional amend
ment (No. -, with regard to taxation,
which passed the legislature almost
unanimously, is to be voted upon and
will undoubtedly be carried at the
coming election. This new scheme
provides that all state funds shall be
raised by a tax upon the railroads
and other corporations of the State.
Professor Plehn, the author of the bill,
has estimated that this system will
provide a large and constantly in
creasing surplus annually over ordi-
nary expenditures. Even if five mil
lion dollars were expended upon the
new capitol, it would be readily real
lied in this manner during the time
necessary to construct the build
ing. The result will be that a mag
nificent new capitol will be secured in
location the most central, convenient
and economical possible, and that not
one dollar of the cost of this capitol
will come from the pockets of the
farmer or the small tax payer.

Moving the capital to Berkeley viii
result in great saving of money to
the State, as approximately ninety per
cent of all the officials, commissioners
and legislators, in travelling to Sacra-
mento first pass through Berkeley, thus
being required to pay additional fare
to reach Sacramento. Eighteen impor-
tant commissions are located in San
Francisco; these have constant busi-
ness with State officials located In
Sacramento. Either the commissions
ers or the officers are constantly on
the road between San Francisco and
Sacramento for consultation or other
reasons. This is waste of money
as we'll as waste of time of the State
officials.
Prevent Waste of Time and Money
If located at Berkeley, the capital
will be within a ten-cent fare of al
most one-half the population of the
pie of California, in order to reach
Sacramento, first pass through Ber-
kelley. The waste of time and money
of the people of the State, caused by
the present location of the capital, will
run into hundreds of thousands OF
dollars annually.
Legislation Would Be Improved
With the capital at Berkeley, much
better legislation would result, be.
cause the nearness of Berkeley to the
center of population would render il
easy for citizens, boards Of trade ant
chambers of commerce to appear be-
,ore committees of the legislature to
advocate good laws and oppose bad
ones. At the present time only ar
Insignificant number of people can
afford to spend the time or money
necessary for this purpose. Moreover
greater publicity would be given to
all the acts of the legislature, thus
affording wider opportunity for dis.
cussion Of proposed legislation
Law Library Made Available
The State Law Library is the finest
of its kind west of Chicago. 1t is
now impracticable for any but the
lawyers and judges of Sacramento tc
make use of this collection. With this
library located at Berkeley, it would
be available for the law students OF
the university 1t would be within a
half hour OF practically half of the
lawyers of the State; it could be used
by the supreme and appellate courts
and would be accessible to the judges
and lawyers of the interior, who make
frequent trips to San Francisco.
State Library i'm Reach of Masses
The State Library at Sacramento
one of the finest in America, is OF
little use where now situated. If To-
Gated at Berkeley, it would be within
the reach of the masses of the people;

and professors of the university, and
