THE WAY TO GET
An IDEAL PLAN
Continued from Page Ten Second Col.
GARFIELD CAN'T DO 1T


GARFIELD CAN'T DO 1T
"The last legislature improved our
taxation laws; but we are yet far
from an ideal system said Jimmy
Garfield in his speech at the Cleve-
land banquet to boom hgn for Cover
nor.
Well, Jimmy II was legislature
with a Republican majority in both
branches that did all in its power to
prevent the development of an ideal
system rather than heed the advice
OF Governor Harmon. IL refused to
PASS the bill favored by Governor
Harmon for limit of per cent on
the tax levy could not be increased
without a vote of the people, and
passed a substitute bill SO elastic" In
its provisions as to afford little IL
any protection to tax payers Instead
CT passing a bill favored by the gov
crnor and which he helped to prepare,
TO abolish all state boards in creating
a state tax commission, it passed a
lin framed as a Republican party
measure" to preserve that one board
which is 50 valuable to the state Re-
publican bosses because IL controls
appointments for local boards of tax
review. Yes. Jimmy. we are yet far
from an ideal system, but nothing bet
ter can he expected II another Repub-
l'cnn legislature Is elected even If you
were to be elected governor at the
same time Progress toward the de-
Gevopmont of an ideal system can be
made only by re-electing Governor
Harmon and giving him legislature
with a Democratic majority in both
tranches.

MAC M|LLEN'S
DISTINCTION
Of the First to Make a Phon

BY United Press Wire.

= To Francis Macmillen has fallen the
unique distinction of being the first
great vlolinist to make a phonograph
record with full orchestral accom-
panlment. He recently played his
own -Causerie" for the English Vic
tor Talking Machine company and the
record was pronounced by experts to
be the best ever made by any violin
ist. AS o result he was engaged to
make n record accompanied by orches-
ira and the experiment was so sue
cessful that already arrangements
have been made for an entire series
of such records.

WITH A MIGHTY SWAT

All of the correspondents In the SER
vice of the administration at Wash

the past two or three weeks to make
the pc"ple of Ohio believe that Presi-
dent Taft does 1ot want to dictate To
the state Republican convention.

with full authority as receiver TO pro-
mote President Tafts aggressive
leadership" in his home state dissatis-
faction and decentralization spread 50
rapidly that President Taft has been
compelled to issue bulletins to the ef-
feet that he will keep hands off of the
coming convention and permit 1t to
take it's own course both as to can
didates and platform
What a contrast between present an
nouncements that President Taft will
not dictate to the convention and the
statements frequently made in print
some months ago that as soon as the
President returned to Washington af-
ter one of his spectacular trips a com
mitt from the Ohio association of big
and little bosses would call upon him
at the White House to receive his or
ders regarding candidate and platform
essential to a campaign along national
lines and foOthe glory of the admin
istratlon at Washington as the surest
way ito beat Harmon"
There Is a reason for this change,
but it will be of no benefit to the Re-
publican leaders in lew York State
The people of Ohio do not intend "to
beat Harmon" Just to please Taft and
his followers. They prefer the aggres-
sive craftsmanship of Governor Har.
mon as shown by his fearless perfor~
nance of public duties for the benefit
of the whole people regardless OF
politics, TO the would-be aggressive
leadership Of President Taft for the

OF TRACT

Since the city council of Oakland has
passed an ordinance calling for the
paving Of Broadway from Clifton
street, where the Country club is sftu-
ated, 10 Ocean View drive, the north
ern limit OF Rock Ridge place. an
added interest is being taken in this
beautiful new subdivision. When the
I.aymance real estate company priced
the property before offering it for sale
six weeks ago they did not know that
this improvement was to be made In
consequence the people who have pur-
chased property in Rock Ridge place
are already richer, for their lots are
worth at least $40 q foot more. And
now there is an even greater demand
for this property because it becomes
daily more apparent that it is the
choicest residence section across the
bay.
How to sell real estate in summer"
is a subject upon which the Laymance
real estate company might give some
interesting suggestions. Oakland real

Cricket Field Sold
ALAMEDA, July 22-The largest
deal made in local realty for some time
was the purchase this week by John
G. Croll of. the old cricket and base
ball grounds between Webster and
Page streets, Central and Santa Clara
avenues. The tract embraces about
four square blocks.
Croll bought the land from Oakland
parties, who had purchased it from the
Pacific investment company, a concern
that was formed to take over the hold
ings in Alameda of the estate of the
late United States Senator James G.
Fair. 1t is understood that Croll
secured the property for less than
$4,000. Twenty five years ago the
tract was the site OF. the baseball park
of the old California league
With the approaching close of the
vacation season the local realty agents
say that there is observable an i'm
provement in conditions which have
been unusually quiet for nearly two
months. The demand for houses to
rent and for home sites is much better
than 1t has been since June first.
