POOLROOM GRAFT
Will BE EXPOSED
Chief of Oakland Police Has Be-
gun Investigation of ''Pro-
lection" Charges

OAKLAND, Jan. 29.-The arrest of four
handbook men last Thursday for viola
tions of the anti betting law has re-
suited in an investigation being begun
by Chief OF Police Wilson to ascertain
whether or not patrolmen have been
protecting poolrooms. The evidence in
the possession of the police department
heads is meager, but the suspicion is
strong, and if the disclosures become
more serious at least two men may
have to face charges before the board
of police commissioners.
The particular handbook to which
protection is thought to have been eX-
tended was that which was maintained
at 500 San Pablo avenue. Four men
worked a system calculated to evade
the penalty of the WalkerOtis law.
Special agents of the police force got
through the, guarded openings and evil
dence was obtained on which four men
Were arrested and charged with felonies
for taking bets.
The arrest were made Thursday aft
ernoon by Captain of Detectives Peter
sen and three officers The accused
gamblers were taken to the city Jail,
held in detinue for two days and
sweated. The secrets of the organiza-
tion were divulged and in consequence
members of the police force fell under
suspicion.
Chief of Police Wilson denies that he
expects to file any charges with the
commission, but 1T is known that he
is making an investigation.
The four men arrested Thursday were
arraigned this morning in the police
court. j. A. Wagner head of the syn
dicate, will be examined February II.
Harry ]. King, a barber, will appear
for examination February II, and the
pre1iminaries of William Allinger and
James Croda, or Corder, will be held
February 16.

!, than any other single session since
the civil war and reconstruction days.
On that record the republican party
will enter the campaign with conf
dence The republicans have the
issues, the record ald the leaders.
A large majority of the Intelligent,
progressive and public-spirited people
of the country are on the republican
eide. The fact that democratic vic
tory for congress this year would
give a setback to all branches OF
trade, even though democratic
house would be powerless to enact
anything, will impress itself more and
more on the public consciousness as
election day draws near. There is
no good reason to believe that the
series of republican congressional
victories which began in 1889. will be
interrupted in 1910.

DEMOCRATIC CLAIMS

In speaking of democratic claims
to control OF the next congress, the
Globe-Democrat says:
The democrat who, at this late day,
predicts republican defeat forgets the
record which the republican party
made in enactipg constructive legisla-
ton in the recent session. in the
special session the republicans passed
a tariff act on which they are willing
to make a canvass this year. Half
dozen measures of large consequence
were passed by the republicans in
the session which closed in June.
These recent measures. or some OF
them, are particularly popular in the
insurgent region. The insurgents are
claiming most of the credit for the
shaping of the railway measure and
the potsal savings bank. bill. Those
measures will figure in the campaign
in the prairie states. Many of the
insurgents will use them as election
eering documents. Long before cleo
stion day arrives the line of separa-
ton between the republicans a1d the
insurgents will have disappeared.
Every insurgent convention and can
didate indorses the national admins
, tration, and the administration has
stood all along with the stalwart ele-
nent of the party. Whatever reason
, existed few months ago for hope for
the democrats has been dispelled. The
session was not only not barren, but
it enacted more important legislation

GRAND

There will be al entirely new show
at the Grand tonight, and Mr.. Temple
has again proved his ability to Sc
cure the new and good things in
vaudeville for the entertainment OF
his patrons by securing John X.
Coughlin, the original human dynamo,
who presents one of the most clever
and sensational electrical novelty acts
in the business today. Mr.. Coughlin
actually defies electricity by perform
ing such feats as holding carbOns be-
tween his teeth and forming an arch
light in his mouth and many other
feats equally as marvellous. This is
an act of rare interest and one that
has caused more comment by the
scientists of the world than any single
act ever presented on the vaudeville
stage.
Zanfretta and Mansfield, comedy
sketch team, have been engaged to
produce laughter for this change, and
are guaranteed to be real face crack
ers.

ADVERTISING THE PICTURES

The Tribune is not an advocate OF
or defender of prize fighting. We
have little use for the band OF plug
uglies who comprise the sporting
element" in connection with smuggling
matches. We have little sympathy for
the dedicated gladiators," who sulk
about with blackened eyes and cut
faces for the days Immediately fol-
lowing a great ''fistic contest we
confess only a minor interest in the
happenings of the training camp. The
knowledge that Jeff" ate oatmeal
with syrup on it does not thrill US.
Jack" Johnson hungers for bacon
and eggs and the news is religiously
reported by Jack London or John L..
Sullivan or Mike Murphy or any OF
the devotees of the literature of the
prize ring, but we have no swelling
of the bosom or moistening OF the
eye or culver of the lip. The sage
and solemn observations of those IL
lustrious Americans, Battling" Mel
son. "Joe" Cans, Spider Kelly,
as,ike" McShea, Jim Corbett,
"Sam" Berger, do not impress US. In
deed. we lean to philosophical toler-
atm of this distinguished band OF
n,eilists of high and low degree that
nearly approaches contempt.
And we confess that we have no
fear az the destruction Of the repub'
lie through the exhibition of the NOV
,,p, pictures of the recent battle at
Reno.s We should not indorse the

CIRCUS SCORED HIT

Circuses come and circuses go.
And always they draw. 1t matters
not whether it is the same old per-
ulation saw when their parents seiz-
ed upon the excuse of youthful curl
osity, for attending and taking the
budding hopefuls.
There were the same time-worn
spiels from the bankers, the same
mirth-provoking antics of the clowns,
the same puzzling performances Of
those big. good-1atured brutes-the
elephants; the spectacular trapeze
performances, the fancy bareback
stunts of the equestrians and eques-
triennes, and last, but not least, the
same old calliope. with its harmony.
wrecking series of noises.
But it was the circus, and every.
body went, and everybody was happy.
1t was the late P. T. Barnum who said
that the American public loves to be
humbugged." And following out this
plan, he formed one Of the biggest
circuses that has ever been known
one that successfully toured the con-
tinent and opened the eyes of the
Europeans. ="
Campbell Brothers circus, yester.
day, was not of the humbug variety.
They gave a performance that for
variety and genuine entertainment
was all that had been advertised, and
as a result the circus played to two
big houses. the evening attendance
exceeding the big turnout in the after
noon.
The menagerie with the circus is
one of the big drawing cards. 1t does
not equal in size those of the larger
circuses, nevertheless the collection
of animals is varied, and it is real
treat to view them. Noteworthy in
particular is the herd of elephants,
which has been collected, including
the giant Alice, whose greatest de-
light in life seems to be to be fed
peanuts by children. Alice is said
to be approaching the century mark,
and for years she has been noted for
her marked preference for children.
The Campbell Brothers show this
year is In direct charge of A. G. Camp
bell, while Raleigh Wilson is the Off
cial press agent. Both are accommo-
dating and obliging gentlemen.-Ex.

presentation of the pictures to chill
dren, to undeveloped youths. or to
persons of immature intelligence, and
1--we have the assurance of the pro-
motors Of the pictures that their ex-
hibition to ladies" will not be toler-
ated-which assurance we think was
hardly necessary. But If the mature
American citizen wants to see the
demonstrated superiority OF black
brute over a white brute, possibly the
pictures may serve to inspire con-
tempt for prize fighting in all its
nasty and brutal aspects. The fight
and it's result have brought about
realization of the fact that black
brute may be stronger and more skill
full than a white brute in the business
of blackening eyes and bruising noses.
The pictures may serve to convince
even dull minds that we can afford
to take little pride of race or color
in the fstic proves of hairy "gladl-
ator," whose only distinction has been
that he was able to last greater
number of bloody rounds than some
other brute. We fear that some OF
the more enthusiastic opponents OF
the exhibition of the pictures are do
ing just what the owners of the pic
tures want-effective advertising.

DAiRYING AND WEALTH

According to the last year book OF
the department of agriculture, there
are 21,720,ODO mich COWS in the
United States, and these are worth
s7O2,945OOU. The magnitude of the
industry can perhaps be best under
stod when it is considered that these
COWS produce yearly about 1000, O0O,'
900 worth of dairy products.
There is no other branch Of diversi-
fed agriculture so important to the
progress OF a community. The fer
tilty of the soil can best be main
tanned by the liberal use of barnyard
manure and the dairy herd not only
makes this possible, but dairying is
also more remunerative than other
branches of farming when properly
carried on.
Dairyiag has made wonderful pro-
eress since the advent OF the modern
creamery and the consumer of butter
has not only been benefited by being
furnished more wholesome and pal
atable article of food, but the wife In
the farm home has been relieved OF
the drudgery incident to making but
ter on the farm. Where formerly the
cream was ripened and churned into
butter under conditions not conducive
to fine quality in the finished product
and in the majority of cases by un-
skilled hands, now the most of the
milk or cream is delivered to a mod
ern creamery, where conditions are
suited to the purpose of making but
ter, and the result has been a won
derful improvement in the quality Of
our dairy product. AS the quality has
improved, consumption has increased,
and the progress of dairying has been
remarkable during the past decade.
The perpetuity of the country's
greatness depends upon increasing
the production of farm products from
year to year, result which not only
furnishes our people with food, but
snaintains the prosperity of our
farming communities. Increase in
production can only come through inn
proved methods of agriculture and
soil improvement. When it is consid'
cred that the dairy COW is the foun-
dation for soil improvement and farm
ing prosperity, her importance is best
understood, and interest in her should
not be confined to her owner. She is
an important factor in the develop
ment and prosperity Of our country.

One by one the rats fell victims to

only one very large, pugnacious rat
was left of the once numerous colony.
The weasel had go at the big rat
several times, but on each occasion
for his slender antagonist and chased
the weasel to hiding place.
Shortly thereafter the" weasel was
seen busily digging under lumber
pile near the mill. He was engaged
for some time. but later appeared
again in the mill. seeking his old enc

renewed hostilitles. AS usual. after a
lively tussle the rat got the better Of
the argument. and the weasel ran, pur-
sued closely by the rat, straight to the
hole under the lumber pile.
He ran in, still followed by the rat.
but Immediately reappeared round
the end of the pile and again lodged
into the hole behind the rat. Neither
was seen again for some time, but the
weasel finally reappeared, looking nc
worse for the fight.
The curiosity of the men in the mill
being aroused. they proceeded to in
vcstigate the hole under the lumber
pile. They found that the weasel had
dug the hole sufficiently large at the
opening to admit the rat, but had
gradually tapcred 1t as he proceeded
until at the other end it barely allowed |
his own slender body to pass.
When the rat chased him into the

WHY THE FLY is DANGEROUS

WHY THE FLY is DANGEROUS
The Kansas state board of health
has issued a bulletin on flies and ny
habits. The common house fly is one
of the insects that is bred In nOisO.ne
and filthy habits and can we'll be ex'
pected to have corresponding habits.
The bulletin says of fly habits:
THE odor of food in the house and
stores, together with the warmth and
protection afforded therein, makes
these places desirable home for the
fly, and while, as above stated, he is
fond of filth, yet he also relishes
most kinds OF food, particularly those
containing sugar or milk, and all
kinds of meats. 1t can reasonably be
expected that a fly having just gained
entrance into the house has come
from some flth-producing or disease
breeding place and it is because OF
this that his presence in the house
or in the store or shop becomes en-
ccedngly dangerous
There is no doubt, says the bulle-
tin, that flies carry the germ OF
cholera and typhoid fever from their
breeding places to food and drink.
A large proportion of cases of typhoid
fever and intestinal disease of child
hood are due to the infection of milk
or food by the fly. The bulletin adds:
Moreover, it has been demonstrate
ed that the living, virulent germs
producing tuberculosis may be dis
! seminated by the house fly, either
by carrying the infectious material
upon his legs, after having fed upon
sputun, or by depositing fly specks
containing the germs of the disease
upon the food. Flies that have been
exp ,rimentally fed upon tuberculosis
sputum have passed the tuberculosis
bacilli in a living virulent state, and
one eminent bacteriologist reported
that single fly speck contained as
many as 5000 tubercular germs. In
former bulletin this department re-
ported the result of examination of
fly specks found upon lemon pie in
a certain bakery in the state which
was to the effect that the fly speck
contained germs belonging to the fer
mentation group of bacteria. but what
was worse, it also contained large
number of pus-forming germs.
How doth the busy little fly
Improve each shining minute.
And where he finds an apple pie
Plant Micro-millions in it,"
1t would seem, therefore, that the
regulation of the state board of health
requiring food products to be protect
ed from the depredations of the fly
are in accord with scientific findings
ascertained by the department:
