soldiers of 1898 in the Wooden Nutmeg
state, and at the national encampment

candidate for commander-in-chief, but
was defeated by narrow margin by
Mai Walter Scott Hale of California, the
retiring chief His service as an officer
in the war with Spain was highly hon
orable. and resulted in his forming
a close friendship with officers high in
the military and naval service of the
United States.
Commander-in-Chief Newton witnessed
the blowing up OF the battleship Maine,
and that occurrence was one of the
strong incentives which urged him to re-
turn to Connecticut and offer his services
to Uncle Sam.

At the time the Maine was destroyed
Capt. Newton, then a civilian, was seated
in a park overlooking Havana harbor. lie

explosion, knew considerable of the in
trigues that existed at the time. and is
still of the opinion that the Maine was
blown up from some outside force.

CALIFORNIA GUARD is
TO BE CONSOLIDATED
War Department Orders Union, in
Spite of Protests of Governor
Gillett and San Francisco
Realty Men

SACRAMENTO, June 9-Whether
Governor Gillett or the national guard
or the real estate board of San Fran
cisco like it or not, the two militia
brigades of the state will be consoli-
dated into one beyond peradventure of
a doubt under the provisions of the
Dick bill. The war department at
Washington has spoken, and 1t Is for
the governor and the military to obey
the orders of authority.
Within a very short time Governor
Gillett will promulgate orders calling
for the amalgamation of the now
separate brigades.
AS in the regular army, brigade
consists generally of three regiments,
it is patent that if the army regulations
are to prevail in California the two
rational guard brigades will neces-
sarily have to be reduced to one. The
states two brigades are composed of
only three regiments and scarcely suffi-
cient men to make them full regiments
at that.
The Dick bill makes 1t imperative
that the reorganization shall begin not
later than January 21, 1910, but the
changes will be made in most states
this year. In California it will be done
at once.

SAYS SOCIALIST GROWTH
is DlSPROPORTI0NATE
Minister Sees in Increased Vote Sign
of Widespread Discomfort Among
Members of the Working
Class

1.-The Socialist vote in America has
grown vastly in advance of the popula-
ton. 1t is a sign of the widespread
and growing discomfort among the
workers." said Rev. William MacCor-
mack, rector of st. Paurs pro-cathedral
at the annual meeting of the Federation
club in it's rooms in the Citizens Ma
tional Bank building last night. His
subject was problems of the CITY,.
"The Socialists grow in numbers as
the population centralizes in the great
cities. Within ten or fifteen years at
the present rate the rural districts VIII
be sparsely populated and vast ma
jority of the people will live in the
cities. One of the chief causes of this
desertion of the farms is the improve
ment of agricultural machinery. These
modern inventions take the place of a
large number of farm workers, ana
they drift to the cities.
"There is a solution for this condition
of landless man and manless land,
said the speaker. THE man should re-
turn to the land. The unemployed OF
the city should go back to the land'
back to the untitled soil"
Mr.. MacCormack declared the people
have a wrong idea of the relative i'm
portance of national and city govern
ment.
"People think the federal government
is of the first Importance he contln-
.ued "They will devote a large snare
of their time and money just to attend
a national convention, such as we are
about to have in Denver and chicago;
but l say that the municipal govern
ment is of paramount importance.
He concluded with a reference to the
ABSORPTION in business affairs of the
average citizen.
Devotion to private interests is an
other menace to good municipal govern
ment. 1t prevents the citizen from tax
ing an interest in the welfare of the city
in which he lives. He has not even
time to vote. 1t is the secret OF the
politician. He is in politics because II
is to his private interest"

HUSBAND killed AT WORK.;
WIDOW SUES FOR $4,000

A suit was filed in the superior court
yesterday by Mrs. Louise c. Ecken-
berger against the American Beet
Sugar company in which she seeks TO
recover $4,000 damages for the death
of her husband, Franz Joseph Ecken-
berger, who on September 3, 1907, while
performing his duties as an oiler at
the factory of the corporation at Chino,
was caught in the shafting and injured
in such a manner that his death oc-
cured the following day.
The complaint further alleges that
a vat containing saccharinein course
of preparation was allowed to overflow
and flood a belt which the deceased
was attempting to put on a shaft and
causing the belt to slip and entangle
him and whirl him around until he was
fatally injured.
