There will be a gathering of over
land passenger agents from this city
at the Coronado Hotel tomorrow,
when the Transcontinental Passenger
Association meets to discuss the ques-
tion of reduced rates from all over the
West to San Francisco while Admiral
Evans fleet is in the harbor.
There will be present at the meeting
about fifty passenger officials from st.
Paul, Chicago, st. Louis, Omaha, Kan
sas City, Minneapolis, Seattle, Tacoma,
and Portland in addition to those from
here.
The Southern Pacific and Santa Fe
as the terminal lines in San Francisco
are to demand a half rate from all
Missouri river points to this city in
order to attract a big crowd to at
tend the fleet festivities here. 1t is
certain this demand will be complied
with, because the Southern Pacific and
Santa Fe control the situation and will
insist upon a compliance with their
demand.
These two roads, however, want a
half rate from New Orleans, Chicago
and st. Louis.
That will be the fight at the Coron-
ado Hotel meeting. The two roads in
question hope to get such a concession
from the roads between the river and
New Orleans, Chicago and st. Louis.
Men like Charles S. Fee, James Hors-
burgh Jr, and Paul Shoup of the
Southern Pacific and w. A. Bissell, H.

Can san Francisco accommodate

give them places to sleep?
That is a question railroad men are
asking for they are figuring on just
about that number being amongst

Discovery Made in Replacing the
Aqueduct Bridge Piers.

For many years after its construct ion
the old Aqueduct bridge. across the Poto-

model of engineering work. especially in
the matter of the strength of the sup

within the past few years il has been
found necessary to entirely reconstruct
three OF these massive piers in order 10

has been pushed vigorously. he says.
and although there have been delays
from time to time, a fair rate of progress
has been maintained. The cofferdam has
been pumped out and timber powers car

The advertiser who displays lack of
Judgment in selecting the newspapers which
carry his copy often confuses the sewer and
the cellar
All the money that is put into newspapers
isn't taken out again by any means The fact
that alldalies possess certain physical likeness
doesn't by any means signify a similarity in
character, and it's character in newspaper
that brings returns. The editor who conducts
Ia journalistic sewer finds different class of
readers than the publisher who respects himself
Ienough to respect his readers.
What goes into a newspaper largely de.
Itermines the class of homes into which the
newspaper goes. An irresponsible, scandal
'mongering, undertaking sheet is logically not
supported by the buying classes of people. 1t
may be perused by thousands of readers, but
such readers are seldom purchasers of adver-
Itised goods.
It's the clean-cut, steady, normal-minded
citizens who form the bone and sinew and
muscle of the community. It's the sane, self
respecting, dependable newspaper that enters
their homes and it's the home sale that indicates
the strength of an advertising medium.
No clean-minded father of family wishes
to have his wife and children brought in con-
tact with the most maudlin and banal phases
of life. He defends them from the sensational
editor and the unpleasant advertiser. He sub
scribes to newspaper which he does not fear
ito leave about the house.
Therefore, the respectable newspaper can
always be counted upon to produce more sales
than one which may even own larger circu-
lation, but whose distribution is in ten editions
among Improbable citizens.
You can no more expect to sell goods to
people who haven't money than you can hope
to pluck oysters from bushes.
It isn't the number of readers reached,
but the number of readers whose purses can
be reached that constitutes the value of circu-
lation, It's one thing to arouse their attention,
but it's far different thing to get their money.
The mind may be willing, but the pocketbook
is weak
If you had the choice of thousand acres
of desert land or hundred acres Of oasis,
you'd select the fertile spot, realizing that the
larger tract had less value because it would be
less productive.
