THE HERALD was entering a pro-
test against the Garfield county
board of commissioners appropriat-
ing four thousand dollars out OF the
special road fund to one George H.
Taylor. It would seem that Mr..
Taylor had rendered no service for
the aforementioned four thousand
''plunks." But our protest didn't
seem to ''cut much ice," as such
deals were common in those days
and the newspaper man who called
attention to them only got the Ill will
Of the grafters, and for his services
In behalf Of the taxpayers didn't get
even the thanks of the dear peepul."

nouhced by the Secretary of the Navy to-
morrow or soon thereafter All the older

TO stimulate promotions in the navy that
law provides that there shall be fifteen
retirements in the line of the navy every
year. That quota is usually reduced BY
the voluntary retirement of one or more
officers. who dc not desire further service
at sea. Ii then dcvolves on the pluck
ing board TO designate for compulsory
retirement enough officers ~ complete
the required annual quota OF fifteen.
Last year there were six voluntary re-
tircmcntS. and ii became necessary 10
select nine officers for transfer TO the
retired list. The selections for enforced
retirement are based on the efficiency

ways 10 designate for retirement those

Los ANGELES, Cal, May 16.-This
city and surrounding territory were visit
ed yesterday by series of earthquake
shocks that alarmed many people, but
did little damage beyond breaking dishes,
destroying house ornaments and crack
inc walls on the lighter houses.
The shocks began about $50 yesterday
morning and were felt as late as s:53 at
the beach resorts and in Pasadena, River
side. Redlands and San BernardinO, where
trembIes occurred last Thursday night.
Pasadena suffered the heaviest damage
so far as reported.
Seasick on a Mountain.
Several buildings were cracked. and on
Mount Wilson, where the Carnegie OBJ
servatory is situated, the tremors alarmed
many tourists who had climbed the peak
to view the comet. The quake came as
a double shock, with a swaying motion,
which gave the climbers sensation of
SeasicknesS.
Long Beach was washed by a small
tidal wave just after the first shock there,
shortly before Z o'clock. Another tremor
followed. and then the ocean, which had
been unusually boisterous all morning,
fen suddenly fiat and became absolutely
calm for more than an hour.
second shock shook Riverside at
noon. Both tremOrs were heavier than
the quake that shook the orange belt

Second and Heavier Shock.
SAN DIEGO, Cal, May 16.-There was
rather sharp earthquake shock here
early yesterday morning. First came a
light shock lasting only few seconds.
Scarcely had the trembling subsidized when
there came a heavier shock which also
continued for a few seconds. So far as
is known no damage was caused.

felt at Gardane. near Marseille, at mid
night this morning. Further shocks were
felt at Monitor
