Inmates Enjoy Their Annual
Holiday Treat
Annual
FSpecioI Dspatoh 10 The Colll

SAN QUENTIN. March 27.-More than
$500 Easter eggs were distributed
among the prisoners here today by
warden John z. Hoyle. Although the
eggs were uncolored and lacked the
other fantastic adornments peculiar to
Easter eggs, they were regarded by
the convicts as the treat of the year,
as they never appear on the prison table
except on Easter Sunday.
Warden Hoyle believes in observing
Thanksgiving. Christmas, New Years,
Easter. the fourth of July and other
holidays in the institution, declaring
that such celebrations have an uplift-
ing moral effect upon the men in his
charge.
The prisoners first attended services
in the chapel. Rev. Father Walsh of
san Rafael officiating. Then they went
TO the dining hall, where two boiled
eggs at each plate proved welcome re-
Ininders of the day.

ed today by the Reverend Father Ber-

the speaker painted a vivid picture of

from the direful consequences he fore
saw resulting from what he described
a tidal wave of paganism' now
sweeping over the orld.
Insane Scramble On.
I'VE are living" said Father Vaughn,
'in a day of headlines, snapshots, taxi
cabs and music halls; in day when
the scramble for the prizes of life has
become a mad passion. 1t is a day of
fever, fret and fume, when competition
for earthen toys is so keen, and the
margin of profit in commerce has be-
come so fine that the one cry beating
through the air is hurry up No one
seems to have time for pause till, worn
out in the pursuit of game and vanities
a rest cure becomes imperative, the
clock is stopped, and all action, men
tai and physical, must be prescribed
as prohibitive for an eighth part of a
year.

little opposition, for as yet 1t inter-
fered with no mans private profit From
the beginning of the world, the preach
ing of righteousness in general terms
has been contemplated with entire
equanimity by the men who rise in
violent protest the moment their own
particular privilege, graft, or advan-
tage comes practically into question.
That protest marks the second phase
of the reform.
Now Fight for Action.
within the last two years, conser-
vation has passed out of the realm of
an unimpeachable general principle
into that of a practical fighting at
tempt to get things done. 1t has be-
gun to step on the toes Of the bene-
fciaries and the prospective bene-
ficiaries of unjust privilege. and the re-
sulting opposition, considering the quar-
ters whence it comes, is. one of the
best proofs that conservation is live
movement for the general good.
"The people believe in conservation.
Now when any great movement has
established itself so firmly in the pub
lie mind that a direct attack upon it
will not pay, the regular method is to
approve it in general terms, and then
condemn its methods and its men. So
now the demand from the opponents
of conservation is not at all that we
shall abandon the principle of the
greatest good of us all for the longest
time in using our natural resources.
The soft pedal conservationists mere
ly ask that conservation as applied
shall be what they call rational, safe,
and sane. Safe and sane legislation,
as that expression is used by the men
who use it most, means legislation not
unfriendly to the continued control of
our public affairs by special interests.
Safe and sane conservation, as that
expression is used by these same men,
means conservation so carefully steril-
lied that it will do the special inter
ests no harm and the people no good.
Has Been Opposed.
when the conservation movement
began to tell, it developed without de-
lay that the one great obstacle to
practical progress lay in the political
power of the special interests Every
effort to conserve any natural resource
for the general welfare was met by the
legislative agents of the men who
wanted to exploit it for their private
profit. The effort to get things done
in conservation taught us clearly. un-
mistakabIy, and with little delay, that
so long as the political domination of
the great business interests endures,
their corrupt control of legislation will
carry with it the monopolistic control
of the natural resources also. This is

what we face today In the effort to ap-
ply conservation.
''The fundamental principles of con-
servation are few and simple. One OF
the first is that the natural resources
and natural advantages belong to all
the people, and should be developed,
protected, and peretuated directly for
the benefit of all the people, and not
mainly for the profit of few.
Should Be Kept by Public.
Another is that the natural re-
sources still owned by the people
which are necessaries of life, like coal
and water power, should remain in
pubhc ownership and should be dis
posed of only under lease for limited
periods, and with fair compensation
to the public for the rights granted"

SIXTH SHOT DISSOLVE

Otherwise Coast Artillery Might

San Francisco, Cal, Sept. S.--Re-
markably accurate firing with disap-
pearing 1O-inch guns was done by the
27th company of coast artillery from
Fort Winfield Scott, at the entrance to

POWER To SETTLE
Illinois Operators Confer Au-
thority on Committee to
Meet Miners.
AVOID A DIRECT BACKDoWN
Indications Are, However, Peoria
Terms Will Be Accepted and
Operations Resumed.

Chicago, Sept 8.-The end of the
coal strike in Illinois was brought
a step nearer when the Illinois Coal
Operators association yesterday ap-
pointed a committee with full pow
er to meet the miners representa-
tives and make a contract. Though
the operators are a unit in oppos-
ing the demands Of the Peoria con-
vention of the miners, it is said they
instructed their committee to make
the best terms possible, but to make
a settlement at once under any cir
cumstances.
When the operators met the min
ers last week the conference COM
mittee did not have authority to
make a settlement. For two days
the operators have discussed the sit
uation and many of them became
that the miners had no in
tention of receding from their orig
inal position, and that the full de-
mands must be accepted If mining
is to be resumed. They have been
urging a settlement, while others
have insisted that the signing of the
contract means bankruptcy for them
and they were willing to hold out.
Members of Committee.
The committee is composed of
Harry n. Taylor, r. r. Hammond, s..
A. Shafer, Richard Newsam and w.

Moorshead a member ex-officio. A
