j. w. Wright Enthusiastic Over
Glen ArbOr

]. w. Wright & Co. have started a
vigorous campaign to exploit the beauty

place they would be charmed by its
native beauty. The San Lorenzo river
flows through the property and at this
point this river. which is noted for it's
beauty, attains its greatest attractive
ness.
There is no other spot in the Santa
Cruz mountains which offers such in
ducements to the city man who desires

lots have been sold and just now the
people are beginning to build mostly
modest but artistic bungalows Lots in
Glen Arbor sell for 800" The prop
zerty is owned by j. w. Wright.

SETTLERS TO CONE
VIA PANAMA CANAL
Opening of Waterway Will Draw
European Emigrants to
California
By John E. Green of Baldwin & Howell.

At the opening of the Panama canal
California will experience a novelty in
the form of immigration. for an influx
of European immigrants. such as are
now crowding the entrance of New
York city, will be taking passage for
the great golden west and will be land
ing in San Francisco for about the same
cost as they are landing today at the
Atlantic ports.
These will comprise Swedes. Ger
mans, Hollanders, Italians and Portu-
guese. They will gather from the farm
ing districts of Europe and scatter
, throughout the farming districts of
California. There will be thousands of
them and their influence upon the de-
velopm ent of the west will be tre-
mendous factor. Many of them will be
In position to purchase on terms

and the bulk of the balance will find
employment in the same farming dis

These people will supply a demand
for good farm labor during the harvest
season that California has long needed.
Ihey viii make it possible to develop

we are able to supply them with homes
within their means to give them labor
II months in the year instead of only
during the harvest season.
Here is where the great work of sub
division and irrigation will play an i'm
portant part. for the small farms will
serve to solve the problem of the
division of labor throughout the va
rious seasons. Experts on subdivision
and irrigation enterpriSeS have already
foreseen this condition of affairs and

California in an endeavor to pick up.

Irrigating. These men are not paying
big prices for acreage, but they are
paying cash and are backed by some Of
the wealthiest business organizations in
the world. Their plans are to buy up
large holdings at So and $40 an acre
and spend hundreds of thousands of
dollars developing them into ;, 10
and 20 acre irrigated farms, which will
be sold on terms or by cooperative
crop arrangements or some such easy
payment plan. They will tie up mil
lions of dollars for years, establish and
retain expensive sales. educational and
banking departments; they will adver-
tise Californias five acre farms all over
Europe and America and in the long
run reap fortunes for their enterprise
No existing land owners in California
desire to tackle such a gigantic task
and these developing companies know
it. Consequently they are buying their
lands at exceedingly low prices, as they
have so or so propositions to choose
from at time and naturally select the
acreage offered at the lowest price
providing it is at all capable of irriga-
tion, subdivision and profitable farm

URGES TEACHING POLITICS
IN SCHOOLS TO CURE EVILS

in my name. Another jar received
early in my career as police commits
sioner was in the call of a Jerseyman,
who told me 1t would be worth $4,000
a month for me to overlook the exist
ence OF a certain Illegal resort in the
city"
General Bingham thought hat a
great deal of corruption in. public life
is due to the indifference of the pub
lie, which il too busy to heed what
the government is doing, while to a
great extent the people are ignorant
of public affairs. He related his at
tempts to obtain new legislation en-
larging the powers of the police COM
missioner and explained the workings
of Tammany, which he called Q
superb machine which looked after
the human needs Of voters, getting
them employment in hard times.
The remedy he suggested is teaching
the elements of politics in the public
schools, making the public take al
interest in governmental. affairs and
forming some system where the man
agement of a city would be placed ir
the hands OF a few officers elected by
the people.

STRIKING ENGINEERS
CAUSE MINES TO CLOSE.
---
Prospects of Prolonged Suspen-
sion in Montana Mining Regions.

BUTTE, Mont. Feb. 17.-Ali of the
big mines, with the exception of six,
are shut down this morning, with the
prospects of a prolonged suspension, on
account of the strike of the engineers.
The international Engineers are stand
ing firm, and thus far have the whip
hand. The Clark reduction works will
close down today, according to an Of
fcial statement last night.
All the Clark mines have shut down.
No encouragement for amelioration OF
conditions was held forth by mine
last night.
Large forces were off at the Washoe
shelter at Anaconda yesterday, APP
parently in preparation for a shut
down of thai plant. 1t is not believed
that the operation of six ~Amalgamated
properties can keep the smelters in
operation, and, unless the other mines
resume, the plant will be compelled tc
close.
The suspension of the Clark smeltei
will compel a number Of small mines ts
close down.
