Old And New Santa Fs Trails:
The Splendid Prosperity Of Kansas H.
Illustrated IN the Difference.

From the Boston Evening Transcript.
The old "Santa Fe Trail" was one
of the most important factors IN the
early development Of the Western
country. 1t was the pioneer highway
blazing the way for the railroads that
were to come later, but the earlier
associations and what it meant 10 the
people whom II Introduced 10 new
experiences and new opportunities
have not been lost sight OF. The
settlers who make their homes on
either side of it when it was the one
well known highway in Kansas have
become with their descendants an
important element in the industrial,
social and political life Of the Middle
West. Sentiment for this old path
Of civilization still fingers and is now
to have expressed in a new "Santa
Fe Trail" or as it is more ambitious
ly termed at this time, "The Arkan-
sas Valley Speedway"
Work has already begun this spring
upon the enterprise. 1t contemplates
a dirt road thirty feet in width, be-
ginning at Hutchinson, Kas., and
running nearly the whole length of

A dozen years ago such an am
bilious scheme Of public and inter.
state improvement in that section
would hardly have teen dreamed Of,
much less undertaken. Prosperity
and a stimulated public spirit have
worked wonders, but the main inceh-
tive has been the general ownership
Of automobiles. Among the farmers
along the old trail, it is said that one
in every three possesses one Of the
new machines, and more are every
year coming. Two years ago the

LONG BEACH To VOTE
ON HIGH SCHOOL SITE
Electors to Choose Location Of
Building if Trustees Are
Not Unanimous

LONG BEACH, April 21.-Hartley
Shaw, deputy district attorney, has ad-
vised f. c. Yeomans, president of the
board of education, that the high school
law provides for an election on the
question of selecting a site for the new
Polytechnic high school, unless the five
members of the board are unanimous
in their selection of the site.
The board is to meet next Tuesday
evening for further discussion of the
site matter and there is a possibility
that at that time it may be decided
to call the election. If such is the case,
each member of the board will submit
names of the sites he would recon-
mend. Ten days is allowed for this
and then the superintendent of schools
must call an election within twenty
days. The call shall be made in the
same way as for an election on the
formation of district and the site re-
ceiving the greatest number of votes
shall be chosen.
The point on which the president of
the board was uncertain was as to
whether Long Beach high school dis
trict should be classed as a newly
formed district" Deputy District At
torney Shaw pointed out that it should
be, holding that a high school district
IS not through the process of formation
until it buys it's own property, the law
providing that it may locate its school
temporarily" in rented or leased prop
erty.

SAN BERNARDINO, April 21.-san
Bernardino is in the midst of whirl-

paign, which is proving itself to be
the hardest fought municipal battle in
the history of the city.
The election takes place next Mon
day and both sides have gathered
their strength in the remaining days.
Judge D. d. Bowman of San Jose is
fighting the oratorical battle for the
"wets," and last night made his open
ing address before 1875 people at the
Canadian clubhouse. He will continue
his series of addresses until the eve
of the election. On Sunday, the last
day of the campaign, Attorney Byron
Waters will deliver a reply to Judge
Bowman from the same platform at
the opera house.
The "drys" have been holding night
ly meetings in various parts OF the
CITY and will continue their fight un-
til the last vote is polled on Monday.
Two newspapers have Joined forces
with the "wets" and are publishing
interviews with leading merchants of
the city who favor the continuance of
the present licensed saloon policy The
third representative of the press is
conducting a fight for the "drys." EX-
pense is plainly unspared by the saloon

MEN BACK UP WOMEN IN
PLEA FOR SANE FOURTH
Santa Monica Council Petitioned
to Reconsider Recent Stand

SANTA MONICA, April 21,-Since
the council turned down the proposition
Of the Santa Monica Woman's club that
safe and sane Fourth be observed In
this city this year, the husbands of the
women have taken up the matter in an
attempt to influence the councilmen to
change their mind. Petitions were cir
cuIated today addressed to the city
council and asking that the ordinance
submitted by the Woman's club be
adopted. This is expected to have the
desired effect as 1t is said practlcaily
the entire business population OF the
city is back of the movement.
The plan has been indorsed by other
women's clubs of the bay district, and
the movement has assumed such pro-
portions that it is thought the city
council will see fit not to oppose the
plan much further. The petitions of
the business men will be presented to
the council at the meeting next Mon
day night, and immediate action will
be urged.

FIREBUGS ATTEMPT TO
DESTROY BIG CANNERY Y
Blaze Started in Building at East
San Pedro but Fails TO Spread

SAN PEDRO, April 21.-Last night
an attempt was made to set fire to the
California Fish company's cannery at
East San Pedro There is no clew as
to the identity of the firebugs This
morning charred newspapers were dis
covered in the laVatory that had been
saturated with oil.
The fire failed to burn the building
because the walls of the room had been
made Of lumber that had been used
to drain sardines on, and. which had
been soaked with salt water.
There is little doubt that the fire
would have been disastrous had the
flames broken through into the next
room, where there was much tar, nets
and other inflammable material. There
is practically no fire protection on Ter
minal island. Just north of the sardine
cannery stands the Crescent ware
house and the big storage tanks Of
both the Standard and Union oil COM
panies.
The cannery has not been running
for several months.
