10Th CENTURY
JUBILEE MEETING

The Twentieth Century Jubilee Con-
ventiOn of the Anti Saloon League OF
America, will convene at Columbus,
Ohio, Nov. 10 to ID. 1t is estimated
that 90, 900 delegates will be present.
The Tennessee delegation will be
headed by Gov. B. W. Hooper. Ex-
Senator W. R. Webb, Ex-senator
Newell Sanders, Hon Newton II.
White, Speaker of the State Senate
Judge S. a. Williams, floor leader OF
the temperance forces in the Senate;
Hon. W. K Alternately, leader of the
Temperance or Fusion forces in the
Lower House and many other temper
ance representatives from the Tennes-
see legislature. These will be joined
by the Officials of the Anti-Saloon
League, including many members OF
the State Executive Committee, many
of the leading pastors and heads OF
| leading institutions of learning of the
4 state.
/ It is desired that Tennessee, one OF
| the nine Prohibition States, shall be
we'll represented at this Convention,
and now that the sentiment indicates
such a splendid forward movement for
Law Enforcement, it makes it all the
more important that the State shall be
in position at this Convention to
show by her representation that the
good people of the Volunteer State are
not only for State, but National Pro-
hibition. She should be able to en-
phasize the fact that the four years
crisis through which she has passed in
the effort to enforce the prohibition
laws, has been retarded for the want
of necessary law enforcement legisla-
tion and show that the failure to en-
force the laws in the large cities has
been due to the fact that officials have
been in league with the outlawed liq-
uor interest.
The railroad fare for the round trip
from Nashville via Cincinnati will be
$t6. 95; from Chattanooga via Nash
Vile and Cincinnati, $tS.s5; from
Knoxville via Cincinnati $16.6 from
Memphis via Cincinnati $24 65. From
Birmingham via Cincinnati $s4.6O
Proportionately reduced rates will ap-
ply from all other points.

When The Call announced it was
going to keep the face of its advertising
washed, | watched to see, and [ am
mighty pleased that the men behind it
have faith in clean newspaper. / know
some merchants who have that same
faith. It was a keen head that engi-
neered the consolidation of The Call
and Post. The business men of San
Francisco will respond nobly. There's
little use wishing you prosperity. You
already have it.

ATTORNEY c. F. HANLoN:

There is no doubt that the consoli-
dation is not alone beneficial to the
press but to the public at large 1t
centralizes~ capital SO that more eff
cheney may be displayed in getting the
news to the public 1t also eliminates
rivalry between the two papers in
which the public has no interest One
first class newspaper is better than
three smaller ones with separate in
terests and small capital.

When I heard the other evening that
The Call had purchased the Evening
Post, / said Good" 1t is a splendid
thing for the city. The field, thought,
was hardly big enough for three strong
evening papers and the elimination OF
The Post by purchase strengthens The
Call so that it will be one Of the best
advertising mediums in the state. The
increased prestige and circulation Sc
cured by the consolidation is good
move on the part of The Call and will
prove very valuable to the advertisers.

My surprise at the accession to The
Call of the plant and resources of the
Evening Post was equaled only by my
pleasure in seeing The Call step to its
rightful place in the newspaper world.
I know that it will be newspaper of
clean principles-that is shown by the
war on quacks; of characterized is
shown by the way it handles news
and within the reach of every one by
its price and its news.

CHARLES S. FEE,

With one evening newspaper out of
the field, The Call ought to have things
about the way it wants them. The
consolidation was a good business
stroke. i am sure the merchants are
for it. If the new Call and Post can be
twice as good now that it has absorbed
a competitor, it will be hard to beat.

ATTORNEY MAXWELL MNUTT:

By consolidating with The Post, The
Call is bound to give San Francisco
paper that she can be proud of. The
city needs paper that prints the facts

Call has done this. 1t is entitled to all
success.

THOMAS F. GRAHAM,

The Call and Post now has a clear
field in which to become the leading
afternoon paper of the Pacific coast.
The acquisition of the Post means a
better all round newspaper of The Call

of the Post readers, but the advantage
OF news sources that it has not had
heretofore.

You can say for me that am glad
to learn of the consolidation of The
Call and The Post The Call will be
one of the strongest advertising medi-
ums in San Francisco. 1t is certainly
a good move from the standpoint of
the advertisers and from the standpoint
of The Call, and / think also that it is
a splendid move from the standpoint

I congratulate The Call on its sue
cess, which has been marvellous. There
were many predictions that it would
not fill the bill in the afternoon field
These pessimistic forecasts have been
proven utterly wrong. The Call is all
that any newspaper could possibly be,
and now that it has combined with the
Post | believe its future is exception
ally bright.

The Call and Post already has at
tracted the attention due big news
paper, and the presentation in its col
umns of news served by another press
association in addition to the Interna-
tional News service means that all the
news of the world on the day it happens
will be told authoritatively and enter
tainingly.

The Call-Post combination ought to
be greeted with enthusiasm by the ad-
vertisers and readers alike. With the
splendid features, the we'll covered
local stories that The Call has become

will make it the greatest afternoon
paper on the coast.
