Webb Defines Attitude

Tn q letter dated March % Attorney
General Webb notified the mayor that
such procedure would be contrary TO
precedent After citing the resolutions
IN question, the attorney general wrote:
wrote:
These resolutions seem predi-
Gated upon the desire that this
office bring. in the name OF the
state without the cooperation and
aid of the city authorities, the ac-
tions specified. This is distinctly a
municipal matter, and am quite or
the view that the municipal au-
thorities should have control of
such cases. and that the same
should be prosecuted by your city
attorney under the direction and
control of the mayor and the board
All Of the facts which it will be
necessary TO disclose upon the trial
of such cases are within the. pos
session of the municipal authorities,
and YOU are best equipped TO prose-
cute such actions TO final deter
mination.
To this end. all that will be re-
Quired from this office is permis-
sion 10 bring and maintain such ac-
ton. in the name of such relator as
Won may select and this is the
course heretofore uniformly fol-
lowed in like cases
In announcing that he favored the
passage of the Pugh resolution, based
on this letter. of the attorney general
Supervisor Bancroft called attention to
the fact that the new resolution was
similar to that which he first intro
duced. and suggested that time would
have been saved if his resolution had
been acted upon. Walsh also referred
to the resolution which he had intro
duced. and added:
II seems as if the attorney gen
eral. like everybody else when the
people are concerned, wants to
action now. Those people haven't
money enough, they say. to put in

cars down Market street, but they

CAIRO, March 2S.-CoIonel Roose-
welt, in his address at the Egyptian
university. said In part:
NO man may reach the front
rank who is not intelligent and not
trained with intelligence Mere in
telligence itself is worse than USE
less unless it is guided by an up
right heart, with strength and cour-
age behind it. Morality, decency,
clean living, courage, manliness and
se1f-respect. are more important
than mental subtlety. An honest.
clan is good thing in any country
where his usefulness depends chief
ly upon his ability to express the
wishes of the population, In which
the population forms only a frag-
ment of the leadership, and where
the businessman, or the land owner,
the engineer, the man of technical
acknowledgement of hundred diff
ferent pursuits-represent the aver
age type of leadership.
NO people have permanently
amounted to anything whose only
public leaders were clerks, politi-
clans and lawyers. Remember al
ways that the securing of a sub
stantial education, whether by
group of individuals or a people, is
attained only by progress as a unit.
You can no more make a man really
educated by giving him a certain
curriculum of studies than you can
make a people fit for self-govern-
ment by giving them a paper con-
stitution. The training of an indi-
vidual in order to fit him to do good
work in the world is a matter of
years and the training of nation
to fit itself SO as to fulfill the duties
of elf-goyernment is not matter
of a decade or two, but of genera
tions.
Some foolish persons believe
that the granting of paper con-
stitution prefaced by some high
sounding declarations, in itself con-
fers the power of self-government.
This was never so. Nobody can
give a people self government any
more than it is possible to give an
individual self-help. You know the
old Arab proverb, God helps those
who help themselves In the long

Sandwiched between his speeches
Colonel Roosevelt received the African
gunbearers and tent boy, who arrived
en- route to Mombasa. They were in
gala attire. each in the khaki suit
Roosevelt had given them at Khartum,
with bangles on their arms and each
carrying a cane.

reserve these remarks for the Ameri-
can geographical society.
Then came the event of the day, the
address before the Cairo university.
Entering a side door, Roosevelt sa-
luted Prince Fouad. who presented the
faculty and then escorted the speaker
to the hall, which was packed with
men and women, the former in their
native dress, a European costume with
tarbouches the latter being exclusively
European.
Roosevelt was greeted enthusiastic
cally as he ascended the rostrum and
began to speak. His speech was fire.
quently punctured with applause reach
ing the greatest volume when in Ara
bic he gave an Arab proverb. Noting
the entrance of comparatively few stu
dents-indeed 1t was charged that they
had been excluded--Roosevelt tactfully
announced that his remarks were not
intended especially for Europeans but
primarily for the students.
The faces of his audience were a
study as he made telling points. Sir
Eldon and Lady Gorst followed with
rapt interest, all the English regarding
Roosevelt's sincere earnestness. the
striking yet delicate way in which he
handled the difficult subject.
The Moyad published the speech this
afternoon. giving the text in full in
five columns and approving of 1T edi-
torially.
PAPERS APPROVE SPEECH
Only one Arabic paper and another
native paper criticised the speech, one
man quoting an Arab proverb which
says: They are able to make dom
keys tail look like an elephants trunk
when so inclined"
Then, in recognition of his eminent
services to civilization, the. university
conferred its highest honorary degree
upon Colonel Roosevelt.
Leaving the university, Roosevelt was
driven to the headquarters of the Amer
lean Mission college, where he and his
wife are guests of Andrew Watson.
Later he went to the new building Of
the Girls college, where a crowd of a
thousand had collected to participate in
the dedication of the structure. Colonel
Roosevelt here made another telling
speech, defining we'll known principles
that it is necessary should be followed,
driving home the need of teaching girls
to be good housewives and helpmates
to their husbands. saying that he was
glad that he had had an opportunity of
seeing for himself the mission work in
the Sudan and in Egypt. He said that
he will deliver in America and will urge
that help be given so that the mission
aries can help themselves.
During the morning he received son
of Butros Pasha, to whom he expressed

In connection with the plans of the
directing committee of the Panama-Pa-

the luncheon to be given by that COM
mittee at the st. Francis hotel at noon
today with Interstate Commerce Com
missioner Franklin K. Lane the guest of
honor promises to be the forerunner OF
the selection of strong delegation to
go to Washington and place the claims
of San Francisco before congress.
Lane, having recently left the capital,
and journeying went by way of the
southern states, is in position to give
the committee much valuable advice
relative to the exposition situation both
in Washington and in that section of
the country which is behind New Or
leans in it's fight for Panama canal
exposition honors. Plans will be out
lined at this luncheon which will be
taken up in committee meeting toward
the appointment of representative

NAPLES, March 2s.-Great prepara-
tions are being made here for the ar
rival of former President Roosevelt.
The government will place a special
car at his disposal for his journey
throughout the peninsula. 1t appears
that Mr.. and Mrs. Roosevelt wish
again to pass over the route taken on
their honeymoon.
Alice to Meet Father
WASHINGTON, March 2s-Mrs.
Nicholas Longworth will sail within
the next few weeks for England where
she will meet Colonel and Mrs. Roose-
welt. Mrs. Longworth will remain
with her father throughout the remain
der of his stay abroad and will return
with him in June. Representative
Longworth will not accompany her.
Going to Cheyenne
CHEYENNE. Wyo., March 2S.-
Theodore Roosevelt cables from Cairo
to Senator Warren, in reply to a tele-
gram from the Cheyenne frontier COM
mittee, that he accepts the invitation
to attend the Cheyenne frontier ceIe-
bration, to be held the last week In Au7
gust. This means that he will be in
Cheyenne before he goes to Denver.
Acknowledges Whisky
LOUISVILLE, KY. March 2S.-Ac-
knowledging the receipt of three gall
Ions of 80 year old Kentucky whisky
sent to Africa last fall, General John
b. Castleman today received the fol-
lowing letter from Theodore Roosevelt:
IN THE LADO, Feb. l, 1910.-Dear
Comrade: You're trump. l heartily
appreciate the gift, and still more the
thoughtfulness that lies back of it. We
nave had great hunt and have shot

ket street for it's Sutter street cars, and
announced that he was opposed to it.
Il want to give notice that my vote
will never be cast to force the United
Railroads to do anything with those
cars" he asserted Il serve notice here
and now that I won't attempt to force
them to do anything until the courts
have determined the Geary street road
matter. and l won't take the chance of
having two roads in lower Market
street, either on the inner or. outer
tracks unless the United Railroads will
recognize the Geary street roads right
to use those tracks.
I'VE are in this fight to a finish. We
fought the United Railroads for year
as union labor men, and now we are
going to fight them as supervisors, even
though those who won't vote as the
Examiner wants them to may have to
sit here and listen to insults hurled at
them by this rotten press. The Ex-
aminer wants to put the United Rail-
roads collar on every supervisor who
does not vote in favor of this resolu-
tion, but / tell you / won't vote for
anything that may endanger the sue
cess of the Geary street road"
