For Proper Care of Tuberculosis.

According to the National Associa-
ton for the Study and Prevention Of
tuberculosis, New York state leads
in the number of beds for consump-
tives provided up to May /, with 5,476
beds; Massachusetts is second with
2,4O3 beds; Pennsylvania, third. with
2,347 beds; Colorado, fourth with 1,4S9
beds; and New Mexico fifth, with
1,1O4 beds. AS yet, not one state in
the country has made adequate pro
vision for its consumptives. New
York has set itself the task of having
mo uncared-for tuberculosis in 1916"
and several cities in other parts of
the country have adopted similar pro
grams. The National association
says that tuberculosis will not be
stamped out until all cases of this
disease are cared for either in their
homes or in institutions. With this
end in view, efforts will be made to
increase the number Of hospital beds
in this country to at least $4,000 by
May l, 1911.

Free Trade and Emiaration.

Heavy emigration from the United
Kingdom is strong argument against
free trade, and 1t is one that Is being
used frequently by students of eco
nomics and government. The United
States has grown tremendously under
the protective tariff, and at the pres
ent time free trade is the slogan that
no political party in this country, and
Democracy long ago saw the fallacy Of
1t. For years labor In England has
been In wretched condition, and
things are going from bad to worse
There may be forces at work other
than free trade to account for it. but
yet there can be no doubt but that
the continuance of free trade is the
real cause Of the alarming extent of
emigration from the british isles.
Workmen are seeking countries where
employment Is assured them. Where
do they go to? Investigate and you
will find that they are going to such
nations AS are unfriendly to free trade,
and that accounts for the thousands
that come to American shores. Stand
ard of Empire, British newspaper,
states that present indications from
shipping Offices and other agencies
show that the total for the year Is
likely to be over 100000" Sir Gilbert
Parker, a member of the British par
lament, speaking on this subject said:
There is depression in every depart
ment Of our industrial life. Men shake
the dust Of England off their feet
and say: Thank God!' as they CO. be-
cause they go to countries where
there Is work to get and permanent
work to be had-where they can in
crease their standard OF living and
claim higher wage; where the work
man and the manufacturer combine to
defeat the unfair competition of for
eign nations. No workman in any
of our colonies or In the United States
wants to come back to free trade;
they had it and they had enough of it.
That there should be exultation on the
part of thousands of our fellow coun-
trymen leaving these shores for want
Of opportunity to earn decent living,
is queer Interpretation of the facts
No other country shows such an exo-
dus; no other country wants to show
It," When England protects her in
dustries and assures them of perpet-
ual prosperity, then her laborers will
have work and she will have to give
attention to immigration and not dis.
agreeable emigration.-New Haven

FURNITURE BIDS
CAUSE Of A ROW
Proposal to Equip Hall of Records
Causes Tilt in Board
of Supervisors
MEMBERS WANT SUPPLY LIST
Action'on the Offers Submitted Is
Finally Taken Under
Amusement.
MEMBERS WANT SUPPLY LIST

The board of supervisors yesterday
received bids for metal, marble and
wooden furniture for the new hall or
records. A letter from the Art Metal
Construction company stated that not
enough time had been given for the
preparation of the bids. Supervisor
Eldridge became aroused, and pointing
out that thirty-five days had been
given moved that the communication
be consigned to the waste basket.
The following bids were received:
California Furniture company $24l, 800;
Van Dorm Iron company, $150,OOO; A. f.
Anderson company, $4,000; M. G..
West company, $249,700.
1t was suggested by Supervisor Prid-
ham that before any action is taken on
the bids each supervisor be furnished
with list of the furniture required for
each county office.
Supervisor Eldridge protested, and
Immediately there was a row. Pridham
asked how the bids were made unless
there were such lists. Eldridge in
sisted that there was none.
Il beg your pardon, but we had each
official make such a report" said Prid-
ham.
Then Eldridge made a motion that
each supervisor be given such a list.
That's the same motion that
made" said Pridham. "I'll second it. J."
The motion carried A. M. McPher-
son, clerk of the board, explained that
not all of the officers had furnished
such lists. Eldridge uttered an eX-
clamation of triumph. This incensed
Pridham and the war clouds became
blacker.
1t was then moved by some peace
angel of the board that the bids be
taken under advisement. With that
the trouble was ended.

PRIOR RIGHT THE CAUSE
FOR SUIT AGAINST OLD
MIDWAY TRACT OWNER

Suit in a naction to quiet title to
6o4 acres in section 80, 31-22, Midway
district, was filed in Bakersfield Fri
day by ]. H. Hunt of Hunt brothers
of San Francisco. This suit attacks
the title of Isaac Strassburger and
associates, who recently entered into
an agreement with the Associated Oh
company by which the latter company
was to pay $3000,000 for $40 acres of
the section, including the Pioneer Mid
way Oil company'S well and other
property.
The suit attacks the title to all of
the section with the exception of the
southwest quarter Of the southwest
quarter a tract of forty acres, on
which there are no improvements.
Included in the suit is the question
of title to the Mays gusher, the Juno
Oil company's property and the Man
haitian Midway.
These properties are outside of the
$3,000,000 purchase of the Associated
Oil company, so that the litigation in
wolves a large amount Of money
1t is asserted by persons interested
in the suit that the original locator5
were elected by force by the Strass-
burger people about two years ago
and that they claim title by reason of
certificate of purchase from the state
of California as well as by mineral
location.
1t is said further that the Associ-
ated has not paid the Strassburger
interests the purchase price, but that
it has paid a deposit until good title
is assured it,
