CANDIDATE
FAST LOSING FAVOR
NOy's Race for Mayors Chair
Becoming Slower, and Old
Ringers See Defeat

ALAMEDA, March 2s.-That the tide
of political favor is setting In behind
former Mayor Joseph f. Forderer, can
didate for the Office of chief executive
of the city, is admitted by those who
are in close touch with the pulse of the
municipal campaign. When Forderer
announced that he would be a candi-
date for the mayorship a few days
after William H. Noy. the choice of
the machine, was entered in the con-
test, the expression was often heard:
There viii be nothing to it but For
derer. He is too strong a man with
the people TO be beaten by man of
Noys political affiliations and short ex-
perience in official duties"
MACHINE NAMES NOY
Up to the time that Noy was chosen
by the machinists to go out and cap
ture the Office Of mayor. Colonel E. B.
Bullock, member of the city coun-
ell, was after the nomination. The
machine leaders decided that Bullock
had but little influence and that he
would be easily beaten if he were
pitted against Forderer. So Bullock
took the program and he fell in be-
hind Noy and is now working with
other machinists and old line pro-
grammers to make Noy mayor of Ala
media.
For the first few weeks OF the cam
paign Noy and his followers made con-
siderable noise. but now that the voter
has become used to the din OF the po-
litical tomtoms and is beginning to
weigh the merits of Ferderer, with his
16 years of experience as faithful
servant Of the people Of Alameda, the
man with the ballot is turning to For
derer and is letting his neighbor know
that he is for the man whom the peo
pie trusted for nearly a score of years
and who was never found wanting.
UNWARRANTED ATTACKS
Another source Of strength to For
derer is the reaction that is caused by
biased and unwarranted attacks that
are being made upon him personally
by a few of his avowed political enc
mics One of these bitter verbal as
saults was made upon Forderer at a
Noy meeting held at the wigwam al
the west end Saturday night. The per-
son who made it was q prominent city
official whose term of office is about
TO expire. Those who heard the vitriolie
speech against Forderer declare that
instead of aiding the chances Of Noy
it Will bring Forderer many votes.

land Force Are Slated
for Dismissal

OAKLAND, March 2s.-There is a
wedding out process on at the Oakland
police department under the guidance
of Chief Wilson. It began with the
exposure of Patrolman Hanley's petty
graft, and his resignation in disgrace.

port made by the chief to the police
commissioners which may cost Patrol
men Carroll and Christopher their Jobs.
The chief had received several re-
ports from Captain of Police Charles
Book, in charge of the night detail,
that these two policemen were neg

the list of eligibles. They were Kept
on probation In accordance with new
rule by which all candidates for regu-
lar appointments must serve IL months

quirements resulted in their dismissal.
The cases of Carroll and Christopher
are more serious, as similar derelictions
have been called to the chiefs &tten-
tion. Christopher was suspended in
December, 1907, for neglect Of duty.

Beatifcation is nearly always stage
on the road to canonization.
Some 1S or ii different steps may be
distinguished in the process of beati-
fication, extending always over some
years, and sometimes from one century
to another. The first step is a for
NAL inquiry by the bishop Of the do
cese as to the reputation of the per-

the bull of Urban VIII have been COM

similar nature but more searching, take
place. and then if everything IS satls-

place in the Vatican church.
Before canonization takes place IL
must be proved that at least two mir
acIes have been wrought by the inter
cession of the blessed person since be-
atifcation. This proof is attended with
the same formality and under the same
rigorous conditions as in the case of
the miracles at beatifcation. This be-
ing established. three congregations,
the last being public and in the pres
ence of the pope. which were requisite
before beatifcation, are again convened.
Upon the direction of the pope, after
the last congregation the promoter
fidei and the secretary of the congrega-
ton agree if everything is in order to a
form of decree declaring that no doubt
exists relative to the miracles and that
there is no reason why the canonization
should not be proceeded with. This
takes place usually in st. Peter's.-Lon-
