Parcel Post

MERCHANTS in the rural district are opposed to the par
eel post on the ground that it will injure their business. That
is the same reason that the trusts ar opposed to tariff reduc-
ton, and the answer in each Case is the same: Any measure
that makes for general instead of individual prosperity is of
benefit to the commonwealth. If by aid of the parcel post Git
is not established that such will be the case) residents of the
rural district will be able to buy their merchandise in distant
cities and save money, it is right and proper that they should
be given an opportunity.
But the parcel post is not aimed at the rural merchants. 1t
is doubtful if they feel it's effect as they anticipate. 1t Is
aimed at the express companies who charge outrageous prices.
according to the government report recently made public, and
frequently charge the same price at both the shipping and e
ceiving point for a single service rendered.
The parcel post has been instituted in European countries
with success, and the United States would not be making an in
novation, but would be merely following an example that has
proved it's wOrth-StOcktonM Mail.

The World Moves On

THE Emperor of Japan is dead; his son has stepped into
the shoes made famous by a great man and the world has turned
on it's axis without a hitch. A great man died when the Japan
ee Emperor passed to the soil, yet there was no hitch in the
great world 5 doings. America has lost heads of the Nation.
Other great countries have had their big men die, and yet the
motion of the old world does not vary. No man is as great as
Nature or the Universe, yet those who live upon the crust offer
sympathy to a stricken nation, and one which has a future map
ped by men whose brains have had to be considered by the ma
tons that believed them underneath. Japan and her dead. and
japan and her new ruler, have the attention of the world.

Regulating Water

THE trouble seems to be with water distribution is that
the man at the head Of the sire am is sure to get his share of LIE
water while the man way down is apt to go shy. Laws have
been passed by states, ordinances used and rules laid out, yet
the fact remains that the man nearest the head always has a
crop. Along with material interests that the government will
eventually regulate will be irrigation water. The population
continues to grow but not the water.

Settled the Question

BY the decision of the Supreme Court yesterday the worry
ing question of Presidential Electors, and how they may get o
a ticket, was settled. The Court stated that the Democrat,
proceeded along the right lines, that the Republicans, had they
failed to hold a second convention, would not have been on the
ticket, and that the much-wanted and talked of comma was a
clerical error. From a review of the decision it would appear
that the Democrats have taught their Republican brothers the
right path in conventions.

he believes there is no organized
band coming, but few scattered par
ties may be on the way from Los
Angeles. Citizens filling Is automo-
biles and carrying rifles went out
last night to meet a band said to be
near the county line, but returned
before midnight, It was learned today.
Whether they failed to find any in

to return was not made known.
Attorney General Webb was in con-
ference today with several officials.
A special grand jury will be sum-
moned, probably early next week, and
1t is supposed that Webb will submit
to that body the evidence that have
been gathered against Industrial
Workers and vlgllantes in the fight.

been summoned to meet Friday. 1t
is supposed that 1t will be dismissed

Report, BIameS Officers Of
Titanic for Gross Careless
ness and Neglect Of Duty.
CALIFORNIAN is CENSURED

UNITED PRESS LEASED WIRE. !

Washington, May 2S.-Punlshment
of the White Star line or its officers
is not mentioned in the report Of the
investigating committee, filed today,
this being left to England, II that
country sees fit to take action
The report declares that there was
little drilling of the Titanic crew be-
fore sailing. 1t states that the Titanic
was equipped with 16 sets of double
acting davits, capable of handling 4S
lifeboats, whereas, the ship carried
only 16 lifeboats and four collapsable
boats.
That the Titanic's wireless operator
ignored the final warning of the pres
ence Of ice, flashed him an hour be-
fore the Titanic struck, replying to
this message; "Shut up; I'm busy"
is also charged II Is stated that the
officers did nothing regarding the
ice
Describing the accident, the report
aserts that the compartments Of the
liner we're not watertlght, five Of the
16 compartments flooding simultane-
ously.
The officers Of the Titanic are
blamed for their failure to warn the
passengers OF the danger and the re-
plies of the Titanics wireless opera
tor Of the liner Frankfurt are also
censured. The report asserts that
the Californian was nearer than 10 "
miles at the time Of the disaster.
"The Titanic fired rockets, and the
officers Of the Californian admit see
ing rockets from that direction al
about the same time" says the report
+This committee Is forced to the in
evltable conclusion that the Califor-
nlan was nearer the Titanic than 1S
miles. and that the officers and crew
saw the signals and did not 80 to the
rescue.
"In our opinion such conduct
whether arising from indifference Of
from gross carelessness, is most rep.
rehenslble, and places grave respon
siblllty upon the commander OF tn,
Californian.

had the Callfornian's operator re
mained a few minutes longer at hii
post, the Californian might have hat

IuNrrsD PRESS LEASED wrRr.l

San Diego, Cal, May 28.--Indica-
tions this afternoon were that as a
result of warning issued by Attor-
ney General U. S. Webb, state troops
would not be called for to act in the
so-called free speech fight here, His
assertion that unless the local au-
thorities handled the situation within
the law and by themselves, the state
would step in, had apparently done a
great deal to clear up the situation.
Chief of Police j. X. Wilson said
that his force would take care Of the
trouble and that, If he needed more
men, he believed the city council
would let him have them. That the
police intend, however, to turn back
all Industrial Workers who may
come here on foot without any pur-
pose except to carry on the fight and
fill the jails, is Chief Wilson's de-
caration. He says he will find a
legal way to do it.
District Attorney Utley refused to-
day to grant warrant for the arrest
of Chief Wilson, charged by the l. w.
W. attorneys, Moore and Robbins,
with picking up their stenographer,
W. s. Robinson, on the street and
taking him 25 miles out of the city,
proper, telling him not to return.
Robinson is back and the attorneys
declare they will keep on fighting his
case. They say they will take 1t be-
fore Webb tomorrow and see what he

San Diego, Cal, May 2S,-Although
Chief Wilson says the police will have
the law to support them in all they do,
he is known to be anxious about the
situation which has developed since
Acknowledgement Webb gave notice
that all activities of the vlgllantes
must cease, or troops would come,
and Wilson today held long confer
ence with Superintendent of Police
Sehon.
Meanwhile Webb had had a long
talk with Sheriff Jennings, who re-
peated his assertion that he would
not arrest incoming Industrial Work
ers until there had been an overt act.
Jennings said he had taken the advice
OF attorneys in whlm he had the ut
most confidence, and would not re-
cedo from his position, until ordered
by the courts or the governor.
The police did not have any defi-
mite information, apparently, ABOUT
the Industrial Workers who were re-
ported to be coming on foot from Los
Angeles. One report had 1t that there
were 200 men on the way here. The
attorneys for the Industrial Workers
know. they say that several Witness
es are on their way here. They have
asked Acknowledgement Webb to do
what he can to protest these witness
es.
81 believe Mr., Webb is trying to do
the best he can do in the situation in
which he is placed" said Chief VIII
son today 81 want to say that the
police department will, and can, han
die the situation here. We will meet
any situation within the law II will
not be necessary to call out the mill
lila.
"The situation is now under con-
troll The police department is ca
pable of guarding the city line, even II
hundreds come. II we need more
men, / am confident the city council
will allow them.
81 think the story that $50 men are
marching here from Los Angeles is a
fake, given out to create excitement
here at this time believe a few
scattered men are coming south, but
