NATIVES READY TO
INVADE OLD TOWN
Daughters Will, Join Sons in
the Big Parade in
Monterey
Admission Day Celebration
Promises to Be Most Suc-
cessful Affair

The joint committee of the Native
Sons of the Golden West having charge
of the Admission day celebration in
Monterey met last night In the Delbert
building. Reports indicate that the
affair would be greater success than
had been anticipated.
Grand Marshal Louis F. Erb, who
spent some time last week in the old
capital of the state, reported that there
would be more. than 1900 Native Sons
in the parade, and up to date five par
lors of Native Daughters would join
with the boys.
The grand marshal has selected as
his chief of staff George S. Gould and
Ross Sargent as chief aid, both of
Monterey.
The following parlors will be in line:
California, Pacific, San Jose, Golden
Gate, Mission, San Francisco, Oakland,
Ell Dorado, Watsonville, Redwood, Mon
terey, Stanford, Palo Alto, Santa Cruz,
Santa Lucia, Santa Clara, Bay City,
Mantle, Piedmont, Gabilan, Alcatraz,
Halcyon, Alcalde, South San Francisco,
Sea Point, Sequoia, Observatory, Pre-
cita, Olympus, Presidio, Athens, Mar
shall, Army and Navy Dolores, Berke-
ley, Twin Peaks, University, Ell Captain,
Russian Hill, Guadalupe, Castor, Bal
boa, James Lick, Eden, Fremont and
Alameda.
The committee was confronted with
a new issue in the shape of a circular
letter sent to each parlor, offering to
take members of the order to and from
Monterey at stated price, and as this
would interfere with the committees
arrangements with the railroad it was
decided that any parlor going to the
celebration city by any transportation
other than that secured by the COM
mittee should be deprived of any of the
profits that may arise from the cele-
bration.
The parlors that have secured head
quarters in the celebration city are:
Stanford, at the Ell Monte; California,
at Eagles hall; Pacific, at the FL Monte
clubhouse; Alcatraz, at the Cabrillio; !;
Athens, at Levin hall; Piedmont, at 238
Alvarade street; Twin Peaks, at Bagy's
opera house; James Lick, at the Ell
Monte; Olympus, at the Building Trades

.LAYMfN OBJECT TO
JOINT PRESBYTERY
Declare Plan for Consolidation
Should Be Referred to the
Churches for Decision

OAKLAND, Aug 29.-Interest in
Presbyterian church circles has been
aroused by the approaching session Of
Oakland Presbytery,- at which the ques-
tion of consolidation with San Fran
cisco Presbytery will be decided. The
Presbytery will meet September IA at
Emanuel church in Alden. Some time
ago overtures were made to this Pres
bytery by San Francisco looking to-
ward a union of the two church organ
izatiOns. A committee consisting of
story has been current in church circles
that the committee is favorable to the
consolidation.
Now comes the Pacific Presbyterian,
the church publication, with an ex-
tended communication from a layman's
point Of view, in which strong objec-
tion is made to the proposed consou-
dation. The objections cover seven
points, the first of which is that the
proposition should be submitted to all
of the churches in Oakland Presbytery
which includes those of Alameda and
Berkeley, as well as in Oakland, rather
than committee. The committee
method is declared to be contrary to
the fundamental principles of the Pres
byterian church.
1t is also claimed that each presby-
terry now covers sufficient territory;
that the general scheme of consoIida-
tion would be a step backward so far
as the interests of the Presbyterian
churches on this side of the bay are
concerned.
The writer also intimates that the
desire for a consolidation which would
destroy the Oakland presbyterys fden-
tity appeared to be an effort on the
presbytery of San Francisco to enlarge
its boundaries for the sake of 'bigness y
Criticism is made of the apparent
haste in decision which appeared to be
desired, in that the question should go
before this falls presbytery session.
The article is accompanied by a car
toon representing bear with heavy
paunch labeled San Francisco" and in
dicating that the Oaklanders had been
swallowed.

Of q few shots.

deliberately tempered with. Some Of
the guns exploded. throwing the
