Uncertainty

means that which cannot be relied upon. For instance, we are going to have state and national elections Tn d few months. Some ward "heelers ' say Billy Bryan will be our next nresident, while other "curbstone spouters" say poor old plain "Bill Taft will occupy that white house chair; but it's UNCERTAIN, and, by the way, there are some economists who believe poor old "Bill' should get left because they claim the great and glorious United States will be compelled to purchase a chair large enough for him. Well, such is uN- CERTAINTY. Then, again, they tell us MT Lilley, who is looked on as the lily of our valley, will be our next governor. We heard one man say he'd have little use for our val lev if it was filled with such lilies, hence MT Lilley's UNCERTAINTY. That same man was asked did "Billy'' Thoms (our city's mayor) suit him, and he said not unless he d veto that "Cinder park S20O,o0o appropriation, hence MT Thoms' g UNCERTAINTY. But there's no un- certainty at our store, because every purchase is guaranteed satisfactory or money back.

WILL NOT SINK.
That Submarine Story and the Lil-
 ley-TaylOr-KellOgg Incident.


 Franklyn A. Taylor has always been a good friend of George L. Lil- ley. But Franklyn A. Taylor is not going to vote for George L. Lilley.
 Why is not Franklyn A. Taylor going to vote for George L. Lilley, who is said to be so popular with the business men and manufacturers of Waterbury? Presumably because George L. Lilley dragged MT Taylor into the submarine investigation.
 But has MT Taylor reason to be aggrieved at any action of MT Lil- ley's?,
 Dol you think you would feel a trifie indignant if you, had business relations with firm, and having told the representative of your district at congress about such business, he blurted the whole story before the world? Is that anything to feel sore" over? Evidently MT Taylor thinks so.
 But should constituent become 1 angry when a congressman gets him self into a hole and endeavors to pull himself out by doing such d mere trif1e as abusing the confidence of man who to all appearances has been good friend? If such a con- stituent has any cause for complaint then there is a reason for MT Taylor not caring to vote for George L. Lil- | ley. Perhaps that's the reason also 1 that any of the old republicans hate | to think that a man who will get i himself into scrape and try tO | cover it up at the expense of his fel- l low townsmen, aye, men who regard 1 ed him as a friend, has an excellent chance because of machine politics 1 to capture the gubernatorial nomina- tion.
 But listen. Why does not John i P. Kellogg, the city attorney. come 1 out and say that he will not vote for ] MT Lilley since the same treatment was accorded MT Kellogg as MT Tay- 1 Tor. It is even rumored that the city 1 attorney will work hard for Mir Lil- 1 ley's success. Now how do you ac- count for that?
 You say that MT Kellogg was at one time mentioned as a coming su- perior court judge and that in view of MT Lilley's election he might have a chance to land the place. Oh, yes, only a rumor, but they do say such i thing might happen.
 Wonder what Taylor thinks?
 Wonder how Kellogg feels?
 How would you like to be Lilleyo

CALIFORNIA CLUB
YEAR BOOK ISSUED
Issuance of First Volume Since
the Fire Marks Recovery
of Society
Lost Addresses, Mistaken Num-
bers and Other Annoy
ances Are Ended

Every member of the California club
will wear quiet smile to-day, when
the mail win bring her the first year
book got out by the club since the
big fire of April, 1906. For more than
two years the directors of the club
have struggled with lost addresses,
mistaken street numbers, changed
places of abode, misprinted initials,
and all the other horrors that beset
those who would compile reliable
directory, and the result is a trim
little red volume that will carry salts
faction and content to nearly 300
women.
1T isn't the book itself that counts"
said Mrs. Edward Baldwin, president
of the club, yesterday, lit is the fact
that 1T stands for progress In every
way 1t marks new step toward
complete rehabilitation for the club; 1T
means one more link with the old
normal days. Last year we couldn't
afford it and would have had almost
insurmountable difficulties to meet If
we had attempted to compile it. But
their old place and this little book is
sign of it.
THE book covers the three most
eventful years of the clubs life, be-
ginning with the end of Mrs. Aylett
Cotton's administration, which was
over just after the earthquake. Then
there are the two years of reconstruc-
tion while Mrs. James Orr was presi-
dent. And now comes the end of that.
We enter a new era, we know we can
pay our expenses, our clubhouse is
built, and our membership almost what
it was before the fire.

The stomach of Court Stenographer
Howard Vernon, who has had to digest
more of Newburgh than anybody else,
evidently had gone back on him en-
tirely. Vernon sent word that he was
sick in bed and unable to be present.

BURNS CASE MAY
BE ENDED TODAY
Heney and Ach Argue Contempt
Hearing and Court POST
pOnes Verdict
Ruef Shown TO Have Committed
fragrant Crime in Mailing
Affidavit to Jurors

The matter of Special Agent Burns
alleged contempt of court In seeking
10 ascertain the views of prospective
Jurors was argued before Judge Law
Ior yesterday by Henry Ach, repre-
senting Ruef. and by Assistant District
Attorney Heney, appearing for Burns.
The judge intimated he would prob
ably decide the question today.
Heney effectively retorted upon Ach
bv showing that the defense, while
charging the prosecution with mis-
doing in connection with the investiga-
tion of jurors, had itself been guilty or
indefensible practices. A long affi-
davit by Ruef, he reminded the court,
was mailed to every one of the z,4OV
men whose names were in the jury
box The purpose of this was TO in
huence the jurors. Heney said' ana
was much more reprehenstble than IN
terviewing jurors TO ascertain if they
had any bias.
The necessity for Investigating
jurors is very apparent Heney went
on. In the last Ford trial two men
who had served terms in the peniten-
tiary attempted to qualify. We ascer-
tanned this only by inquiries made
outside. Perjury is becoming the most
common crime known to our laws, and
II is an unfortunate fact that many
men have gone into the jury box with
a predetermination to qualify in order
that they may vote TO acquit the
grafters regardless of the testimony.
All they ask of Mr.. Ach is that he
provide a peg for them to hang their
hats on
Ach in his remarks to the court was
unable to conceal his JOY at the Her
rim victory of the DAY before. In
spite of your Journeys from San Diego
TO Siskiyou," he told Heney, there is
a man named Herrin in this eommu-
nifty who can beat you all, and who
will continue to do so. Hai ha!"
In reply to Judge LawlOr, Ach ad-
mitted that if it were proved Ruef
had mailed his affidavit to all the 2,400
jurors that would be contempt. He
also admitted TO the judge that he
considered it legitimate to ask a pros
pective juror his opinion on an i'm
pending case.
Assuming that a man can be
reached in no other way, is it not
legitimate to use artifce to get his
real view?" asked the judge.
I think so-yes, I believe So an
swered Ach. He added that il was
better that 80 guilty men should escape
than that one should be convicted by
the methods of the prosecution.
