.MY POLICIES"

There is a great deal of loose talk
by an ex7president who refuses to re-
tire about my policies" and my meas
ures." He does not take the trouble
to tell what they are. 1t does MT
matter.
A democratic congress to be elected
this fall viii have to do not with any
of his new policies, fantastic or other,
but with a long list of policies. meas
ures, wrongs and scandals from whic 4
he will never disassociate his name.
1t will Investigate the Panama COL
ruption and usurpation.
1t will show how the sugar trust was
safeguarded for years in its swindles
and its privileges.
1t will find out how much money the
plutocratic trusts spent to elect a GER
tain president in 1904.
1t will inquire into the cost of the
illegal absorption by the steel trust of
the Tennessee Coal and Iron Com
pany.
1t will show up lawIessness and
waste in dozen other instances.
These things were my policies,
when their author was in a position
to have policies and had the power to
make them effective. They are pos
lively the only Roosevelt policies that
will receive mucb ,,,yI,tio o++o,,+i,,, So
good while to come.
The speeches now being made from
private car leased by a smart weekly
might be significant if the person be-
hind the innumerable capital rs fall
ing therefrom were still president. AS
it is, they suggest only delusion and
egotism.
Noise and buster are sometimes
confusing, especially in the dark. Turn

FOLSOM UNPOPULAR
AS RESTING PLACE
Laruer Number of Felons Convicted
in Local Courts Prefer San
Quentin to other State
Pententiary

AS a choice between two future resi-
dences among the prisoners sentenced
by the criminal courts of Los Angeles,
San Quentin is a big faVorite over
Folsom, as a stopping place, accord
ing to the records of the local courts.
In nine cases out of ten when priso-
ner is asked to which place he would
prefer to be taken, since. he is COM
Delled to accept one or the other, San
Quentin has a biz lead over Folsom.
The choice runs between freedom
and Folsom as the two opposites. If
prisoners cannot get freedom, they do
their best to get probation, according
to the cleVerness of their attorneys. III
they cannot get probation they ask
to stop at the San quentin hotel -
and Folsom is accepted when no other
objective point is left to them.
San Quentin, according to convicts
in the county Jail who have been to
"both places" is a small city in itself.
Besides. most of the work is inside
and during cool and wet weather they
suffer less hardship. The fact that
the place is surrounded by walls also
results in a little easier discipline and
they are not watched closely every
time they make a move.
In Folsom, they claim, they are COM
PEELED to work outside in all kinds OF
weather and the place is like a small
country village. The fact that there
are no high walls around the place, in
stead of attracting prisoners, sets them
against the place, because they are
subject to a more irksome discipline
and watchfulness in consequence.
In the county Jail the old-timers and
the new ones trade information and
soon become acquainted with condi-

News of the Courts
AWARDS FRASER
BEACH PROPERTY
COURT DECIDES MORTGAGE
MAY BE FORECL0SED
Breaking Of Clause Restricting Use of
Firearms on Land No Cause for
Damages, Is Judicial Opinion

In an opinion handed down in the
case Of A. r. Fraser against George r.
Bentel ct al, to foreclose a mortgage
on property in Ocean Park valued at
100000, by Judge James of the superior
court yesterday, the latter decided in
favor of the plaintiff and held that a
provision restricting the use of fire
arms on the property, as provided for
in the deed. was no cause for dam
ages as detraeting from its value.
The property consisted of about two
hundred lots in an advantageous loca-
tion at Ocean Park, and formerly was
owned by the Recreation Gun club.
For some years the latter held shoot
ing matches on the land, and the sound
of gunshots became so Objectionable
to the neighborhOod that when the club
sold the property a stipulation was
made in the deed which forever pre-
vented firearms from being discharged
on the place.
The club sold the property in June,
1904, to Fraser, with this understand
ing, and in selling a portion Of the
land, known as the Crescent Bay tract,
to Bentel in 1905 the same restrictions
were provided for. Bentel was to pay
in three installments, and issued
mortgage to Fraser for the payment
of $4,000.
There was a balance of $4,000 due
August 20, 1908, and a new mortgage
was executed to secure payment. 1t
was on a foreclosure of this mortgage
that action was brought by Fraser in
Judge James court. Bentel put in a
counter claim for $4,000 damages,
which he estimated the property had
sustained because of the restriction
preventing the discharge Of firearms.
Judge James in his decision contend
ed that the defendant was fully aware
of the restriction when he first pur-
chased the property, and that nothing
was heard from him regarding the de-
probation of the property's value in
that connection until the commence
ment of the suit to foreclose on the sec
ond mortgage.

PROBATION DENIED TO
MAN WITH BURGLAR KIT
Court Places Mo credence in Story of
Denial Told by George
Thompson

Two years in San Quentin was the
sentence meted out to George Thomp-
son, who pleaded guilty to burglary, by
Judge Davis of the criminal court yes
terday, a recommendation of probation
not being given by Captain Dodds, pro-
baton officer, upon an investigation of
Thompson's former life. Thompson
holds papers as ships first officer and
claims to have been on the ocean from
II years of age up to a year ago, when
he was A years old. He entered the
room of George Lynn in the Arcade
hotel, where he was stopping, at mid
night on January 81 and took gold
watch from the bureau and sold it TO q
pawnbroker for 81.
Detective Roberts of the Los Angeles
police force found the property and
forced Thompson to confess he had
taken it, Fifteen dollars was also taken
from Lynns room, and the bedding set
on fire, but Thompson denied all knowl-
edge of the acts except taking the
watch. What prevented him from re-
ceiving probation was the fact that
jimmy and brace and bit We're found
in the drawer of his room. The tools
had been used in a number of robberies
in the city, and while the defendant
denied the tools were there to his
knowledge, the court did not put any
faith in his statements.

SAN DIEGO HAS
MODEL CHARTER
COMMISSION FORM OF Gov
EMINENT ADOPTED
Present at City Club Luncheon
Are Addressed by
Mayor Conard

1t was a gleeful occasion for Frank
G. Cinlayson, president of the City
club, when Grant Conard, mayor of San
Diego, yesterday told that organization
that his city had adopted the commits
sion form of government by amendment
TO its charter and not by submitting an
entirely new charter. Mr.. FinlaysOn
took occasion to call the attention of
any members of the charter revision
commission who might be present to
this fact.
Mr.. Finlayson is himself a member
of the charter revision commission and
warm adherent of the commission
form of government as eXemplified in
Des Moines and other cities. He has
been strongly in favor of submitting
some form of the commission plan to
the people as charter amendment
and was much disappointed last Tues
day night when a committee of the
commission reported against submit
ting the commission plan as an amend
ment on the ground that it was too
radical and might be construed by the
courts as an entirely new charter under
the guise Of amendments.
Mayor Conard told the City club how
much better San Diego is governed un-
der the new form than 1t was under
the old form, when the government was
Los Angeles. San Diego now has five
commissioners and a mayor, where it
used to have nine councilmen, mayor
and ali the police, fire and other com
missions that help govern Los Angeles
He showed the commission had saved
san Diego many thousands of dollars
in the less than year that IT mas
been in power and that the people have
received more for their money than
system.
While the City club was deeply in
terested in the speaker, it was much
more so i'm the bulletins of proceedings
at Washington read during the lunch
con by President Finlayson. When the
bulletins proclaimed the overthrow of
Speaker Cannon the large banquet
room echoed and re-echoed with the en-
thusiastic' applause.
Preceding Mayor Conard's speech A.
A. Denison, secretary of the chamber
of commerce, made a few remarks in
which he declared that Oakland was
trying to work out it's destines as Los
Angeles had done, and was patterning
after this city in the spirit Of CO.
operation and team work" that has
done so much to make Los Angeles
what it is.
prof. G. L. Biedenback, principal of
the Berkeley high school, followed
Mayor Conard and told of the work
ing of the commission form of govern
ment in that city. Berkeley has one
feature in it's charter which no other
commission city has adopted. It's COM
missioner of finance is eX-officio a
member of the school board and con-
trolls the finances Of that department
of the city government as he does the
other departments. The four members
of the school board, the five commits

only elected officials in Berkeley.

MISREPRESENT FACTS TO
SELL MOTOR CAR MIRRORS
Sergeant of Traffic Squad Claims Un-
scrupuIous Dealers Take AdVant-
age of Ordinance Language

Some firms selling the mirrors that
are placed on automobiles and other
vehicles to permit the driver to see
the traffic behind him are taking an
unfair advantage of the new traffic
ordinance, according to Sergeant But
Ter, commanding the traffic squad.
Hundreds of vehicles have been
equipped with these mirrors in the last
few days and some of the vehicles
were not required to have them under
the terms of the ordinance. The ordi-
nance compels only those vehicles
which are covered in the rear in such
a way that the driver cannot see the
traffic behind him to have the mirrors
and whenever it is possible for the
driver to see behind through even a
small opening in the rear they are su-
pernuous. Agents for these mirrors
have impressed on owners of all kinds
of vehicles that they were required by
law and have been doing a landoffice
business through misrepresentation,
according to Butler.
