GENIUS SHINES IN
PORTRAYING NATURE
Brush OF Martinez Gives Calls
forria EnviabIe Rank in
the World of Art
Exhibition of Twenty=eight Pic
tures Should Bring Gifted
Artist Enduring Fame

Xavier Martinez has been accounted
one of the great artists of California
A powerful and persuasive individuality
of temperament united,to genius for
rendering nature on canvas in her
quietest and sincerest phases has made
him the painter of mark that he is. He
is a painter in all the fullness of the
word; not mere transcriber.
His landscapes, mellow with the terra
cottas. luminous yelIows and browns of
the California atmosphere and vegeta-
ton show richness and luXuriance in
their very picturing of aridity; his hills,
bathed in the exquisite radiance or a
fading day, simmer away so softly
into distance that the eye follows the
rounded uplands to lose its sense of
perspective in an invisible horizon; his
skies, brilliant with the splendor of
sunset or suffused with the translucent
hues of a family dawning sunrise seem
a fitting background for the clouds Of
every color that drift and separate and
mass themselves in piles of softest
hues. All these effects, added to the
clearness and felicity of an open air
painting, are seen in the collection of
% pictures which hang on the walls of
the ' lcheIN SdilSIS III lIilS, tic ei1 1iSe .
first exhibition of his work in four
years.
Decidedly the two principal paintings
of the group are the large portrait
called THE Profile" and the wonder
fully mystical and somber scene en-
titled The Tarn.' In the first the pro-
file of young girl-who, by the way,
is the painters wife-is seen thrown
against long window, which gives
upon an outer landscape of sea and
sky. She sits in the window seat. cush-
ions piled behind her and an open book
in her hand. In this wonderfully happy
and graceful conception the artist has
managed to infuse an air of slight sad
ness, which the shadow effects seem to
intensity.
The Tarn" strikes another note en-
tirely-one of deep, inscrutable tragic
mystery. The deep curve of the lonely
waters, fringed by a circle of whisper
ing, rustling eucalyptus trees. the SOM
Der shadows lurking on the shoref and
the play of the slender, ghostly
branch against a darkening sky lend an
impressive and solitary melancholy to
the scene.
Quite opposite TO this is the wild.
riotous picture, The Waltz" where a
whirl of dancers speed over the waxed
floor of a Latin quarter resort in Paris,
the whole enveloped in the smoky at
mosphere which fills the room.
Martinez's crayon sketches indicate
the same freedom, penetration and fac
ulty of retaining the essential that the
oils portray, and though several of the
larger works are catalogued as unfin-
ished, the satisfying qualities are al
ways evident.
Wednesday was the opening day of
the exhibition, which will remain open
to the public free of charge for two
weeks, or until May I, and will prob
ably be the last held in the gallery of
this firm prior to removal to down
town quarters.

OF VOTERS
SCORED BY MAYOR
Oakland's Executive Talks
Straight From the Shoulder
on Duty OF Citizenship

OAKLAND, April 15.-To the respect
able members of the community who
sit at banquets and pass resolutions on
ethical points of government, but who
remain away from the polls on cleo
tion day while the elements whom they
profess to combat vote to within 10
per cent of their total registration.
Mayor Frank K. Mott delivered a
singing rebuke at mems league din
ner at the First Congre egational church
tonight.
The hopeless apathy exhibited by
just sucn men as are gathered here
tonight has cost Oakland dear" said
Mayor Mott. The study of votes cast
in the districts where you live shows
that not more than half of your regis
tered voters cast their ballots last
election day. Apathy so dreary that
but 25 per cent of the registered vote
turned out for the charter amendments
election in March cost us the
initiative, referendum and recall, and
the fact that this city turned down
that feature was heralded all over the
state with glee. Such apathy will lose
you the benefits of the direct primary
law.
by your apathy and neglect of your
civic duties you stand shoulder TO
shoulder with vice and crime and all
that is bad in politics"
Mayor Mott was followed by l. Har-
rison Clay, president of the chamber
of commerce, who spoke on the COM
mercial life of Oakland; Fl. c. Cap
well, who spoke on the higher citizen
ship, and Rev. Charles r. Brown. who
spoke on the moral life.
resolution was passed commencing
the abolition of nickel in the slot
machines in San Francisco and urging
the Oakland city council to follow
the example set across the bay.

WANT ESTIMATES ON
EIGHT BOND ISSUES

ects to the City Engineer
for Definite Figures

After hours of discussion yesterday
the supervisors building and public
utilities committee agreed to ask the
city engineers office to secure definite
estimates and plans for eight bond is
sue projects to place before the people
in the June special election. Most of
the members favored the adoption of
the proposed civic center and the To-
cation of the city hall near Van Ness
avenue in accordance with it, and the
majority recommended that a single
$S,50O.000 proposition for this double
purpose be put up to the voters. Nc
Leran favored the project. but thought
a better way would be to submit al
ternate propositions at the first cleo
ton.
a number Of, the proposed play
ground and park propositions were
dropped because they contemplated
buying sites adjoining present parks.
The recommendation that $500 900 for
school sites and additions be asked was
discarded; and the committee will re-
port that the 100000 of school bond
issue now in hand be used instead.
The recommended propositions fol-
low:
Civic center and city hall. $500, 900;
Polytechnic high school, $500 900 Po-
