j. A. MINER & Co. say today:
Money eased off to per cent this
afternoon and this caused a slight rail-
ly i'm the New York market. Trading
was largely of a professional charac-
ter, and will probably so continue for
some time. Until there is more gen.
eral interest in the market we can
hardly hope for any great enthusiasm
on the upward side. Copper shares
were rather dull though there was a
firm undertone noticed. offerings were
comparatively light. Much attention
is being turned toward North Butte
because Of the persistent strength this
issue has displayed during the past
few days. The Lake group provided
the bulk of the trading in the curb
market today.

GOOD GOVERNMENT FUND
. DRAWS MUCH ATTENTION

The good government fund in Los
Angeles is again attracting attention
in the east. The American city maga|
zine for April has a leading article on
the good government fund, from which
the following is quoted
1.-THE most serious matter in connec-
tion with reform movements and move
ments for good government is the fin
ancing of them. There are many good
citizens, men of ability who are willing
to devote a good deal of their valuable
time to this work and to contribute
literally to campaign funds besides,
but they balk when 1t comes to going,
hat in hand, literally begging for funds
which are doled out, grudgingly in
many cases, by men who do practically
none of the work and, by reason of
their large interests in the community
are the principal beneciaries of it.
''It so happens that citizens who are
able to and do give generously to the
financing of movements of this kind,
while quite limited in number, are
called upon on every occasion. 1t is
not only bothersome for them, but
also for the solicitors, to have to take
I'D such a matter every time the neces-
sity arises.
1.-The fact tnat IL would De more DuS-
inesslike and a great relief for all con-
cerned if each one of these generous
givers would agree to pay such an
amount as he would expend annually
into a fund, to the trustees of which
all applications of the kind mentioned
could be referred, and who could either
assist or turn down a proposition, as
their Judgment would dictate, gave rise
to the organization of the good gov
ernment fund of Los Angeles city and
county
"The work for good government must
be financed by private individuals. No
public funds can be used for that pur-
pose. The work cannot be we'll done
unless it Is properly and generously
financed. Great reform movements in
other places have always been so
backed up.
f'It is not right or desirable that the
load should be borne by one man, and
If the work is to be done as it should
be done a number of men who can
afford it should collectively agree to
contribute the necessary funds.
1.-THE announcement that this perm
anent fund has been raised for the
purposes named should have Won
derfully encouraging and stimulating
effect upon the forces for good govern
ment and correspondingly depressing
effect upon the forces for evil which
have long recognized the weakness OF

DR.. SHERW|N GIBBONS IS
CANDIDATE FOR CORONER

Friends of DIR. Sherwin Gibbons, a
prominent physician of Los Angeles
and a member of the board of health,
stated yesterday that he had decided
to enter the race for the Republican
nomination for county coroner
DIR. Gibbons is a member of the Lin
Roosevelt league, and has been
prominently identified with the Good
Government organization. DR.. M. Z.
pratt is a candidate for the Demo-
cratic nomination for the same office.
1t is rumored that Coroner Hartwell
is preparing petitions to be circulated
for his nomination for reelection, but
this rumor could not be confirmed
yesterday.
Leading Democrats say Dr. Pratt is
one of the most competent men they
could possible put up for this lmpor-
tant position, and Lincoln-R Roosevelt
Republicans are equally enthusiastic
in their support of DIR. Gibbons. If DR..
Gibbons secures the nomination, 1t
is claimed by his friends he will re-
ceive the support of the Good Gov
ernment voters.
Los Angeles herald., 1910-04-21

reform movements on account of their
general lack of financial support While
Venai politicians have no difficulty in
securing large contributions from
predatory and privilege seeking inter-
ests.
ut is not contemplated that the
good government fund shall do any
thing more than raise and dispurse
money. The actual work to be sup
ported would be done, as at present
by other organizations.
"VieWed strictly as a business propo-
sition, the raising and wise expenditure
of such a fund would pay. From a
moral and patriotic viewpoint it is at
least equally important. Men do not
hesitate to give large annual subscrlp-
tions and endowments to charitable
and philathropic institutions, but the
important benefits to the state arising
from the liberal support of govern
mental reform seems not to be gener'
ally recognized. 1t is fully as import
ant that crime, poverty and disease be
prevented as it is that the unfortunate
victims be assisted after the event.
It is the desire of the trustees to
popularize the fund. and instead OF
depending on large subscriptions from
a few individuals, to secure large
number of moderate sized subscrip-
tions from a greater number.
To this end a campaign is about to
be undertaken to secure subscriptions
from a dollar a month upward, pay
able quarterly the minimum subscrip-
ton receivable being $40 per year IN
advance.
The personnel of the trustees of the
fund gives assurance of its wise and
conscientious distribution. S. c. Gra-
ham is chairman, c. j. Kubach vice
chairman, NJ. Lissner secretary and +
M. Johnson treasurer. These, with
Stoddard Jess, DR., John r. Haynes
William Lacy, A. j. Wallace ano
Frank ]. Hart constitute the poard ol
trustees for this year. :,
Anyone desiring to subscribe should
address P. NJ. Johnson, treasurer, o
r johnson building, or M. Lissner
secretary, Lissner building.

FRIENDS POSITIVE CALL
WILL NOT OPPOSE BELL
Believe Refusal to Run for Rail-
road Commissioner Will
Be Reconsidered

Albert M. Norton, chairman of the
Los Angeles county Democratic CEN
tral committee, having received from
Joseph IL. Call a letter in which Mr..
Call announces he will not be can
didate for state railroad commission
er, there was much speculation yester-
day as to Mr.. Calls position in the
present campaign.
Mr.. Calls friends insist he is too
loyal a Democrat to consider entering
the race against Theodore A. Bell for
the governorship, and say they do not
consider his refusal to run for the
railroad commissionership definite or
final.
Il believe Mr.. Call can be persuad-
ed to reconsider" said one of his per-
sonal friends yesterday, "and am sure
that when he is convinced the people
of California want him to be rail-
road commissioner he will agree to
enter the race"
]. d. Bethune, discussing Mr.. Call
and his fitness for the railroad COM
mission, said yesterday:
II deem Mr.. Call the best equipped
man for that position in the state of
California. The eople of the state
owe more to him than they know-es-
pecially those of the southern portion
for his most thorough and wonder
fully able maner in which, as assist
ant United States attorney, he eX-
posed and caused to be corrected the
unlawful claims and eXactions OF the
Southern Pacific Railroad company
at time when it required nerve. abil-
ity and learned persistence to accom-
plish the task.
During the writer's term of office
as register of the United States land
office for this district, Mr.. Call began
his researches into the relation of the
Southern Pacific Railroad company to
the United States in respect to its land
claims and to its unfounded and IL
legal claims to the millions of acres
in Southern California it sought to
appropriate to itself. By his indomi-
table energy and great ability in that
line. he discovered and laid bare in
the public prints the court methods of
the railroad company to rob-that Is
the word--not only the government,
but the individuals, of lands to which
il (the railroad company had no SEM
blance of right other than the fear 1t
inspired in the breast of individuals OF
a fpuitless fight against the Southern
Pacific and the unlimited Golfers of a
political campaign contributor. By Aa
Calls able efforts he impressed tue
government with the correctness of ms
contention in his prosecution OF the
railroad company and secured re-
turn to the government of vast tracts
of valuable lands that company had
Illegally appropriated and held as it's
own for so long that it began to be
accepted as a fact it really owned 1t.
"Mr. Calls industry, perception and
thoroughness in his investigation in
the land office soon attracted my at
tention, and, having closely studied his
writings and speeches on the subject
of railroad freights and fares am
oonxyinced that of all men in the public
eve Mr.. Call can do more as a rail-
road commissioner to adjust the ir-
ritating differences which now exist
between the people and the railroads of
this state-many times more than II
he were governor"

GOOD GOVERNMENT
FORCES TO MEET
important Gathering of Workers
Will Be Held Tonight at
Highland Park
CANDIDATES ARE TO TALK
Works, Whiffen and Stewart Will

The Los Angeles Good Government
organization announced yesterday that
an important mass meeting of all good
government workers has been called
for tonight in Woods hall, 5721 Pasa-
dena avenue, Highland Park, at
o'clock
The meeting will be in the nature of
a reunion of many Of the men who
were identified with the recent munich
pal campaign, In which these men res
cued Los Angeles administrative af-
fairs from the machine push" and
led the good government forces to an
unprecedented victory, despite the fact
they were but newly organized and
provided with a comparatively small
fund for the work involved.
Among the men who will address the
meeting tonight will be George II.
Stewart, former president of the Los
Angeles chamber of commerce, who
will speak on the future of Los Angeles
and review the details of the bond cam
peagn, which has just ended in great
victory for the promoters of the har-
Dor and power plant bonds.
Frederick j. Whiffen, who for eight
cen years has been actively identified
with the upbuilding of the city, and
who also took a leading part in the
recent good government campaign, also
Mr. Stewart and Mr.. Whiffen are
Good Government candidates for the
vacancies in the city council As run
ming mates" Mr.. Whiffen and Mr.
Stewart are a formidable team, and in
good government armor present a front
which insures another triumph for the
oganization's forces in Los Angeles.
Judge ]. d. Works, Lincoln-Roosevelt
league candidate for the Republican
.t,.s, fnv- init faH 70
atorship, who has the earnest support
of the good government members of
all parties, will be present at the meet
ing tonight and discuss local and state
political affairs.
Prof. Lorin A. Handley of Occidental
college, a prominent Democrat and
Good Government worker also will adj
dress the meeting. City Prosecutor
Guy Eddie and Frank S. Forbes viii
make addresses, the latter presiding.
The meeting will be an important
one, at which the various issues will
be thoroughly threshed, and the posi-
ton of the Good Government organiza-
tion clearly defined As there are sew
eral complex phases of the present
campaign, differentiated from previous
election affairs by reason of the new
direct primary law, with which every
one is not thoroughly acquainted, it Is
urged that all who are interested in
clean and efficient government and
who wish to. understand the issues in
volved, and the exact status of the
Good Government organization in
municipal and county affairs, be pres
ent at the meeting tonight.
Mr.. Whiffen and Mr.. Stewart who
will be the principal speakers, will add
greatly to the general interest in the
meeting because of their candidacy fol
the city council, and voters are urged
to hear them define the policies they
stand for and to take advantage of the
various discussions scheduled for to-
night, to post themselves as to the new
political conditions.

Clergyman DepIores Tendency of
Members of Cloth to Be

DESIRES MEN INTERESTED
Sensation Is Created by the Rev.
Deans Speech at Sunday
School Convention
Associated Press1

Associated HEeSSl
OAKLAND, April 20.--In an address
delivered before the convention of the
State Sunday School association, now
being held at the First Presbyterian
church, the Rev. John M. Dean, pastor
of the First Baptist church of Sar
Jose, gave the delegates food for dis
cusslon when he protested that the
ministers of the church are, as a rule
too "ladylike" and therefore incapable
of performing the religious duties i'm.
posed upon them in manner calcu'
lated to do the most good.
"All men are interested in politics
business, education and religion" saiC
Rev. Dean. MEN are interested il
things they work on, and to make the
work of the Bible classes in our as
ISOLATION successful they must be given
an opportunity to aid in the work that
is bringing actual results.
1--WE are constantly in danger of hav-
ing too much preacher The failure of
much of our work among men has
been that our preachers are too
'namby pamby'-men who are too ef-
Terminate and who pass their time visit
ing the widows in their prosperity
rather than in their Affections.
Men are more loyal than women in
their devotion to the Savior. Men are
doctrinally more faithful than the wo-
men. The women are more loyal to
their pastor than to their church. 1t
is the women who run after fads and
who fill the churches of the new
thinkers
Rev. Mr.. Dean was loudly applauded
when he had finished his talk.
Rev. II. w. Tenney of Berkeley and
Dr. Sarah e. Wise of San Francisco
were the other speakers at the after
noon session, at which DIR. G. A. Bangs
presided.
Silas w Mack was in the chair al
the evening session, and talks were
delivered by the Rev. r. p. Shepherd
and Miss Meme Brockway.
The second day of the convention was
opened this morning in the First Pres
byterian church with Rev. George A
Hough, state vice president of the
Sunday School association, in the
chair. The first work taken up was
the roll call of the unions and a dis
cussion of elementary Sunday schoo
work by Mrs. B. d. Hagemann, state
superintendent of Sunday school ele-
'mentary work.
Miss Irma G. Allen, state superin-
tendent, with headquarters in Sar
Francisco, spoke on home department
and Rev. A. c. Bane, state superin-
tendent, of San Francisco, spoke or
