PLUTOPHOBIA IS THE

People Have Always Wanted to
Get Rich Quick

PlutOphObia is q commOdiOuS word
that stands for disease which has al
ways more or less afflicted mankind, but
never so much as at the present time.
From one point of view this Is the get
rich quick' age, but, on the other hand,
II is also the age of plutOphobias or
hatred of wealth when possessed by
others. PlutophObia is the one great
cause and handspring of socialism, as
II was of brigandaSe and piracy. and in
the middle ages of the disabilities or
the Jews In those days, when land
was almost the only form of capital.
the Jews were regarded as the repre-
sentatives of portable wealth. and tho
tooth drawing and other persuasive
measures TO which they were subjected
were the outcome of this disease. Now
adays the haired of wealth is directed
against Christians quite as much as
against Jews, and all forms of direct
taxation. ruinOus death and succession
duties, and so on are symptoms OF it.
Hundreds of millions sterling have been
destroyed by il in England alone during
the past few years and it is one Of the
principal causes of the unemplOy ne1I
of which we see and hear so much The
heavy and universal fall in securities
since the present government has been

Buys ThorOughbreds to
Mate With Arab Horses

Mrs. Richard Walton Tully (Eleanor
Gates), who recently brought TO the
coast choice collection of pedigreed
Ara bian horses with the idea of utiliz-
ing them to improve the breed of Cali
fornia horses, has within the last few
days purchased a number of thorough
bred mares from horsemen at the
Emeryville racetrack. Mrs. Tully was
able to pick up several exquisitely bred
fllies at bargain prices as a result of
the depression from which the Ameri-
can turf is suffering owing to unfavor-
able legislation.
Her purchases include the year old
mare Expectant by Balgowan- Hoff-
nung, from Harry Mack; the 2 year old
fillies Tourist Belle and Penetrate from
J. Jones; the 2 year old filly Jungle
Queen from G. II. HOLE, and the year
old filly BeeZer, from M. j. Leonard.
These mares will be shipped to the
breeding farm which Mrs. Tully has
established at Alma Santa Clara coun-
ty, for mating with the Arab stations
standing there. Mrs. Tully believes
that the thoroughbred cross will yield
splendid results and will give the idea
a thorough trial.

RIVAL LEAGUERS TO
MAKE TEST OF
STRENGTH
Coast Organization and Outlaws
VIII Start Weeks Series
Across the Bay

This week promises to be a lively
one in baseball circles The Coast
league and the outlaws are fairly on
their way for the baseball pennants,
and the season of 1909 promises to
eclipse all previous ones. In the Coast
league the Seals will be away from
home, while Oakland and Portland will
furnish the entertainment on the local
diamond this week. In the State league
an exciting series is promised. as Oak
land and Stockton come together this
afternoon at the Grove street park.
These teams are doped as the leaders
of the State league, and the battle for
the forward position promises to afford
plenty of excitement.
Captain Joe Nealon, who is guiding
the destinies of the Oakland outlaws,
is bent on taking the leading position
away from Stockton this week. He
will send Bloomfield to do the mound
work this afternoon. while Stockton's s
battery will be Fitzgerald and
Frambes.
AT Freeman's park this afternoon
Portland and Oakland open the weeks
series across the bay. This will be the
first appearance of the northerners
formances in the south they appear to
be speedy lot of ball tossers.
The drawing powers and popularity
of the Coast league and the outlaws
across the bay will be tested this aft
ernoon for the first time. No line
could be drawn from the opening games
at both league grounds. They meet
on even footing today, and the test of
strength will be on.
The outlaws have not ceased their
pilfering tactics, and they are still
endeavoring to lure players away from
the Coast league. Their recent efforts
have not been crowned with success,
but they have not become discouraged.
An attack was made on the Portland
players yesterday Immediately after
they got in from the south and Turing
Inducements were made to Catcher
