EIweIl Says Party Will Work Hard
Until 1910 Campaign is Over.

W. d. Elwell Of Ames. formerly state
chairman of the prohibition state CEN
trail committee, now manager of the
financial department Of the committee,
was in the city Saturday afternoon, on
his way to GrinneiI and Oskaloosa. Mr.
Elwell says that most aggressive
campaign will be waged by his party,
and that the fight will be kept up UNI
til the last day of the 1910 campaign.
It is the expectation of the committee
to raise a campaign fund of $4,000,
and in this work the national commit
tee will cooperate.
Mr. Elwell believes that in view Of
the fact that the legislature turned
down the resubmission amendment the
prohibition party has the greatest OPP
portunity for success in its history
At Grinnell Mr.. Elwell will try to
enlist student workers in Iowa COL
lege. His visit to Oskaloosa will be for
the same purpose. and he will meet
the students Of both Penn College and
the holiness university.

Jack London Sets Customs Off
GERS Worrying Over His
Island Trinkets

If a carved wooden god is worth %
plugs of tobacco. and three war spears
are equal to 500 shells. and four yards
of tapa cloth is as valuable as two
strings of. beads and two carved gods,
how much in plugs of tobacco is five
drygoods boxes fun of tapa cloth.
carved gods and war spears worth?
And how much in cash?
These and such like problems are
occupying the entire time and energy
of all the customs officials in this port
from Collector stratton down. and the
cause of the trouble is a consignment
of curios shipped here from the South
sea islands by Jack London. novelist,
tramp, socialist and sailor.
London states-and there is no reason
for doubling his veracity-that in the
solomon group plug tobacco is legal
tender. and that the various articles
of, curiosity in his shipment are of
various -values-in plug tobacco. This
is very well as far as it goes, but he
does not state the value in United
states coin of plug of tobacco in the
South sea islands.
1t is we'll. known fact that in this
country plug tobacco is worth from 3
to 10 cents a plug. according to the
size and brand of the plug. But how
much is it worth in the solomon group?
Values are relative. says the ap-
praiser. A hungry sailor perched on
the top of a cocoanut tree on an isle
of the solomon group, with nothing IN
sight but sand and cannibals, might
be willing to part with all the carved
gods in the south seas for section Of
plug. while the same sailor might.
10 minutes later, after having been
seen by native, give away dozen
plugs for one war spear.
Collector Stratton has tried Euclid on
this problem and is now working it out
in algebra What does London mean by
this? If a carved wooden plug OF to-
bacco Is equal to the base of a right
angled sea shell. what is the area of
three yards of plug tobacco cloth? qs

~ RANCIS

H RANCIS J. HENEY was
r. greeted by hundreds Of enthusi-

ferry depot last night to wei
come him home from his eastern trip.
The cheers that burst out as he began
to speak might we'll have drowned
his voice had it lost its old ring, but
as he stood on the landing of flight
OF steps in the ferry nave his voice
Numbered out just as it did in the
days befoTe the shooting which so
nearly cost him the power of speech.
Heney was welcomed home to San
Francisco with an ovation such as has
seldom been accorded any San Fran
ciscan. 1t was no mere handful of
personal friends who gathered to
cheer the prosecutor of the grafters.
but crowd of hundreds who braved
the drenching rain that their voices
might be joined in the acclaim of well
come. They crowded about him on
the ferry boat as he crossed the bay
from the Oakland pier. and they over
whelmed him with expressions of en-
couragement and of congratulation as
he made his way from the gangway OF
the boat to his automobile at the curb
outside the ferry building

and Mrs. Heney accompanied her hus-
band. Fifty or more personal friends
and active workers in the graft prose-
cution met the party at the Oakland
mole. but the greatest throng assem-
bled in the ferry nave.
The scene in the ferry building was
an unusual one. for a strong police
guard was on hand to keep order and
prevent any disturbance Captain OF
Police Conboy was in personal com
mand of the detail and the guard that
surrounded Heney as he left the boat
was a stronger one than it has ever
been found necessary to call out for the
safe conduct OF the most dangerous
criminal 1t was an eloquent COM
mentary on conditions that have grown
to exist in this city-the fact that such
a guard as this was necessary for the
adequate protection OF a man whose
battle has been for law and Justice
and for the rights OF the people. Yet
the precaution was taken through no
unfounded fear.

Not Unlike ReuterdahI

Turner's method OF treatment is not

believed that the water line on the war
vessels was too low. but it follows
more closely the arguments advanced
by c. p. Connolly, who recently dis

navy has been the tool OF politics and
charges that vast sums OF money have
been wasted to keep up Mare island

Victor II. Actcalf pointed out inac-
curacies in Turner's article by referring
10 his own reports. Captain Thomas
Phelps, commandant OF Mare island
