Especial Dispatch to The Call

STOCKTON, Feb. 15.-Asserting that
under the provisions of Governor Gill

no assurance that mile of road will
be built in the state during the next
10 years, ]. NJ. Eddy. secretary of the
good roads association, replied today
to the criticisms of the governor
against the motives of the association
1T is beneath the dignity of the sec
retary of the California good roads as
sociation to answer in kind the aues-
tions of Governor Gillett,'' said Eddy

the governor of California to question

in organizing the public inteili gence 20 {

better maintenance of improved high

The California good roads assocfa-
tion exercised the time honored privi-
iege' of asking representatives of the,
people to present a measure which
would care for the maintenance of ac-
ceptable thoroughfares, improved by
counties This request for legislation
was made after years study of the
highway problem. 1t was request
that would not have been discredited

fore the governor exercised the sdicta-
torial powers over legislation

Gillett, it is worse than ridiculous to
make his outburst against the good

"Under the provisions. of the govern

The trial of Michael W. Coffey, which
has been in progress for a week in
Judge Dunne's court, is rapidly draw
ing to a close and it is expected that
by tomorrow morning the fate of the
ex-member of the boodling board will
be in the hands of the jury. Argu-
ments will probably begin today and
owing to the illness of District Attor-
ney Langdon's mother, the burden of
arguing the prosecutors side of the
case will fall upon Assistant District
Attorney William 7Hoff Cook

Will be made by Carroll Cook. Robert
Ferral and Franklin, P. Bulls 1t has
been announced that the defense will
produce a number of witnesses who
will testify to the reputation Of Cof-
fey, and included among those who
have been subpenaed are police ser
geants and officers of the local force
who knew the defendant when he was

MILLION A MONTH
.TOCOMf FOR BONDS
Supervisors Approve Sale to
Halsey and Associates at
Big Premium

San Francisco sold $1,000 900 worth
of its bond issue yesterday for s6,O65,-
S20,- or for a premium of 1918 per
cent, when the board of supervisors ac-
cepted the bid of Halsey. Speyer and
the National City bank of New York
The Halsey bid was $4,000 higher
than the next below it, that of Rollins
& Harris. and the latter firm did not
protest the action of the board. The
bonds sold were of the following
issues and amounts: Fire protection,
s2.Ooo,Ooo; school, 100000; sewer,
100000; hospital. s40O, 900; hall of jus
tice, s660,00o; garbage disposal plant,
$50. 0Oe
About 100000 month will be
poured into the city treasury by pay
ments on these bonds as they are de-
livered and begin to draw interest,
and the city engineer has a working
scheme outlined ahead to utilize the
money as it comes in. OF the fire
protection money something over
S1,000,000 will go into the pipe con-
tract, for which $4,000 ton contract
will be let soon under bids by the
board of works. The disposition OF
s350.O00 of the garbage plant money
was made yesterday when the board
unanimously agreed to the hospital
committees bargain with President
Tilden of the Sanitary reduction works
TO purchase the crematory, lock- stock
and barrel, for s40oO 900.
The sum of $4,000 was ordered
withheld until the new municipal plant
should be in operation, the corpora
tfon to run the present plant for the
city until such time. paying per
cent interest upon the $3.50, 900 ad-
vanced.
The city hall can not be built on
city ground by private capital. Such
was the gist of an opinion given the
board Yesterday by City Attorney
Long. The recent proposal of the real
estate board TO erect such a structure
on the city hall lot, the city to pay for
1T on the instalIment plan, was re-
viewed at length and the conclusion
reached that the board could enter
into annual contract only of the nature
proposed. AS any one board has life
of only two years businessmen would
have little foundation for going into
such working agreement as the
scheme outlined.

day having approved the plans of the
