AN EXPERIMENT /.
IN COLLECTIVISM
Copyright. by Daily Story Pub. Coz
By LIONEL cHEWErTE


Curly was talking. Although it had
been more than two years since my
last meeting with him, my recollec-
tion of our former acquaintance was
sufficiently vivid to make that fact
no surprise. But the subject matter
of his discourse was rather unexpect-
ed. / had never regarded Curly as one
to whom the great truths of modern
socialism would appeal But here he
sat, forcibly inveighing anent the
wrongs of labor and the greed of cap
ital, and just as forcibly urging the
claims of cooperation, or rather ''col-
lectivism" (for weighty reasons, which
I have forgotten, cooperation was not
the thing, as the sovereign remedy
for all the ills of the state
Certainly, as we sat on our bench
in the common that morning, there
was nothing in Curly's appearance
that denoted discomfort. And yet,
he was preaching the gospel Of unrest,
as If he actually believed in it. was
little mistrustful, however.
What is the scheme, anyway, Cur
ly?" l asked, when he paused for an
instant
The effect of my question was
marked. He showed no surprise. but
he colored slightly, he hung his head,
and presented as crestfallen an ap-
pearance as a man we'll could.
Does it strike you that way, hon.
est, Bill?" He faltered in his utter
ance. Now, I've put in a good deal
of time and work getting up that game
Of talk. 1t means good deal to me-"
l laughed joyfully. My renewed &C
quaintance with Curly promised to
be as full of interest as my former
one. l slapped him on the shoulder.
Cheer up" l said. You would
convince a wooden Indian, easily; but
you see l remember that-that last
time" 1 hesitated somewhat in my
effort to say nothing that might hurt
my companions feelings.
He looked at me thoughtfully.
YES" he said. do you know, Bill"
he went on, I've wondered, some
times, if l didn't put you in bad by

wanted to do that"
laughed again. Don't say a word,
Curly" l said "One or two of them
did rather suggest that l got half Of
the-er-proceeds, but no one really
believed it. But what is the new
scheme. anyway" / repeated.
Well" Curly settled himself lit
tie on the bench, as / was saying. the
way it's run now, the working man
only gets about a quarter of what he
produces; and / thought I'd try to
even it up little in one place any
way. You see, closed up last season
over $500 to the good. and I've put
that five hundred into an option on a
hundred and twenty acres out at
Wedgewood. You know where that
is?"
/ nodded. l had passing acquain-
tance with that eminently exclusive
town of summer residences
Il haven't got my plans in shape
yet" Curly went on, "but I'm going
to put collectivist colony there, about
so or 60 men and their families. if they
have any" He paused a moment, and
then went on. I'm going to give each
one little place where he can live if
he wants to, but most oof it we'll all
run together. They'll pay me as they
can, just what I've paid for their
shares and we'll all have a say about
what we raise or make; that is, on the
part We own together. Understand"
1 didn't understand. why, yes" /
said. Il comprehend what you are
saying, but, really" 1 laughed a lit
tie, Il don't see where you come in,
Curly
We'll, you see, it's this way" he be-
gan, but he got no further. Instead,
he looked at me for moment Then
he placed hand on my arm You
don't mind, do you, Bill, If / don't tell
you, just now?" he asked deprecating-
ly. "You see, it's rather ticklish busi-
ness, and it means good deal to
me, too," he repeated. Anyway,
you'll probably guess it. There'll be a
lot in the papers about it,"
OF course l did not urge him and
left him soon after. / was somewhat
disgusted. All that / could see to his
scheme was False and fraudulent

PATENT OFFICE is FLOODED.
Press Of inventions Leads to Demand
for Larger Quarters.

TOR Larger quarters.
The inventive breed is not dying out
in America. The commissioner OF
patents at Washington calls loudly for
larger quarters, more clerks and big
ger pay for overworked examiners.
There is such flood of new devices
pouring into the patent office as was
never seen before. The examiners are
fairly swamped and are full year
behind in their work.
Naturally enough, motors and sub
marine and aerial navigating devices
lead the list. Modern man insists
upon flying, and the inventor who adds
speed to his passing to and fro upon
the earth, in the air, or in or under
the water is certain of his reward.
The inventors are no believers in
the early coming of peace among the
nations, for improvements upon weap-
ons and new explosives are well nigh
as numerous as new motors. Yet with
all this cunning for gain and racing
for fame on the part of the inventors
the chances are that some unconsid-
cred trifle like the wooden ball with a
rubber string or the globe catch for
women's purses will win the largest
rewards in the future as in the past.

REPORTED
|. AS DRUG SMUGGLER
German Vessel Suspected OF
Carrying Opium From Seattle
for Illicit Traders

Customs officials are keeping close
reported laden with a large quantity
of opium and making for this port
from Seattle. That an attempt will be
made to smuggle the forbidden drug
ashore here is the belief of those
working on the case. The first notice
of the plan was received by Surveyor
of the Port Edward F. woodward yes
terday morning in an official telegram
from Seattle.
In selecting the Erna for smuggling
purposes those interested in the enter
prise have taken advantage of the
treaty between Germany and the United
States. The Erna is a German vessel
and belongs to the Jebson line of
steamers that operate on the coast in
opposition to the Pacific Coast steam
ship company. According to the treaty
with Germany, federal officials are not
allowed to search German vessel un-
til after "a hours notice has been
given. the German consul, so that he
may be on board the vessel when
searched. This would allow the Erna,
with it's opium cargo. "a hours in the
harbor before the customs searchers
could board her. In that time the
opium could be lowered over the side
and brought ashore in. small boats
That this is; the plan of those ngaged
in the unlawful traffic is sthe firm be-
lief of the government oficials.
1t was learned late in the afternoon
that the Erna might not touch at this
port on her way south, but go direct
to Santa Barbara. This would be IN
usual. for the Erna hitherto has always
made this port on, its way south. 1t is
thought by. the customs officers that
the smugglers selected a time for
their operations when. the vessel would
not put in here, so that they would
have better chance to land the drug
at the small southern port

WILLIS COUPLE WE'D
TWICE IN ONE DAY
Mistake of Recorder Necessi-
tates Double Ceremony

UKIAH, Aug. 26.-It is not often that
young couples get married more than
once in day. but this is the experience
of Mr.. and Mrs. G. E. Pyle OF Willis.
They telephoned to this city for a
marriage license and then took the
train for Santa Rosa to be married by
the pastor of the Latter Day Saints
church. Finding him out of town. they
were married by City Recorder w. P.
Bagley. who was in hurry and did
not notice where the license was is
sued.
They came back to this city and pre-
sented their license for recording and
were informed that the ceremony was
illegal. as the license had been secured
in Mendocino county and the wedding
performed in Sonoma county
They then secured new license and
were married by Rev Mr.. Covette of
the South Methodist church.

LORD ELIOT LOVED
AMERICAN ACTRESS
Suicide When Father Forbids
Marriage Causes Sensation in
British Smart Set
Especial Gable TO The CALI


PLYMOUTH, Eng. Aug. 26ZThe
suicide of Lord Eliot, who killed him
self at his fathers residence, Port Eliot,
Cornwall. Tuesday, because, his father,
the earl of st. Germans. would not per-
nit his marriage to Estelle Christy,' the
dashing American showgirl, has caused
a sensation in the English smart set.
Miss christy is known as the typical
Shubert girl and by her captivating
way has made numerous conquests She
is Baltimorean and jumped into prom
inence in the fall of 1906 when Lord
Eliot, then only 81 years old. fell in
love with her. His full name was Ed
ward Henry CORVALLIS Eliot, and he
was reputed to be possessed of "a very
serious mind.
One night some of his club friends
| dragged Lord Eliot into the Aldwych
theater. London, to witness Edna Mays
Nellie Nell That night he saw the
dainty American girl and he was fascin-
ated. Night after night he found
himself in the theater radmiring the
beautiful showgirI. He quickly de-
vised means of meeting her and soon
the engagement of the couple was food
for gossip on both sides of the Atlantic.
Although the formal announcement was
not made it was understood that the
wedding would take place in June.
1907. Time dragged on, with the earl
steadfastly opposing the match. When
he finally forced the young lord to
break the engagement the young man
killed himself.
Miss Christy is a divorcee. having
been legally separated from Edward
Mcdowell Jr. of Baltimore in 1905. She
went on the stage to support herself
and her young son. In 1905 she ap-
peared as a showgirl in Anna Held
| sParisian Model 1t was rumored at
one time that she was married to J. H.
Miller. son of Henry Miller. a well
known actor but this was denied Last
season she was member OF 1.-THE Blue
Mouse company.

Counties for Carpet

Formal hearings viii be begun to-
morrow with Ventura and Santa Bar
bara counties on the carpet 1t is ad-
mitted that startling underyaluations
viii be revealed at the outset. In fact
The Ventura assessment is only one-half
OF the standard required by the board.
The increases which are said to be i'm
pending may run from Is TO as high as
100 per cent. The offending counties
are: Ventura, Santa Barbara, San Luis
Obispo. Orange. San Bernardino, Los
Angeles and Riverside. The figures re-
turned from san Diego and Imperial
counties are declared TO be satisfactory.
The changes contemplated are not
confined TO southern California, but will
include some of the northern sections,
among them san Francisco. The ad-
vances in the north, however. will not
be very great, as the assessors above
Tehachapi have adhered to the so per
cent rule. This is the standard that the
board of equalization has adopted, and
wherever it finds that a county is not
assessed at the rate of 60 per cent on
the market value Of realty and improve
ments il viii order a revision.
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1909-08-27
Ventura's Values Too Low

In many instances the board has re-
lied upon the chambers OF commerce OF
The various counties to supply corrected
figures. IN the case of Ventura the
chamber Of commerce returned figures
double that OF the county assessor. In
san Francisco, Alameda and Los An
geIes counties the board has made in
yestigations on its own account
This has led to bitter feeling in Los
Angeles. After the realty board and
the chamber OF commerce of this city
were asked to furnish appraisements
independent Of the assessors figures
they made inquiries on their own ae-
count and then suddenly brought the
whole matter to an end by declaring
