MODERN ROADS

. :
James L. Young. OF the Lord Young
Company. returned on the
Korea this morning from a business
and pleasure trip to California that
has occupied several weeks. A good
deal Of his time was spent in an in
spection of California's roads and
road building methods aud as a result
he declares that permanent building is
the cheapest in the end and that the
cement-concrete road is the kind that
gives the best satisfaction.
California is going at her road
building right" he said today 81 mo-
tored from San Diego up to San Fran
cisco and we went over some fine
stretches of road. 1t has 5-inch
base of cement-eoncrete with about
3-S-inch of asphalt-stone covering.
This is the method and the material
that the state highway commission
has adopted and it is showing fine re-
suits.
Accompanying Mr.. Young on his
trip from the coast is Cal Aerick, an
expert concrete man. who will be at
tached to the engineering company's
local staff.
The Lord Young Company is plan
ming to establish a branch in Los An
geles and enter the general contract
ing business there. as it has done here.

SIERRA BRINGS,
RECORD CARGO

One of the largest shipments OF
freight ever placed aboard the ocean-
ic liner since that vessel resumed the
San FraRcisdo Honolulu service,
reached destination this morning,
when 1t was found that the vessel
was packed to the hatch covers with.
merchandise and supplies, to the
amount OF 3325 tons.
Favored by the best of weather, and
carrying one OF the merriest crowds
of passengers In months, everything
made for a pleasant passage to the
islands. Abe last and best sof a spec
ial series Of dinners and dances was
held on board Saturday night, as the
vessel neared the port.
Eighty cabin ard IL steerage pas
sengers trooped down the gangway
following the liners arrival at Ocean
ic wharf. The Sierra and the Pacific.
Mail liner Korea were more or less.
together ON the way down. The Jap
anese steamer Hongkong Maru, also
departing from San Francisco the
same day, was not sighted during the
trip. The Toyo Kisen Kaisha steamer,
however, was given the, bulk of the
mail for the islands, while the Sierra
receiyed but "a sacks, and none were
placed aboard the Korea.
The marked increase in freight of
'fered the Sierra was extremely graft
tying, owing. to the fact that a strin-
gency along this line has existed on
the coast for SOME weeks past. The
movement of freight, especially lum-
Der, is said to have fallen on to
considerable degree. Passenger bus
mess between San Francisco and the
southern ports is said to be meeting
with a decided slump. The Sierra
on the other hand arrived here with
regulation number of cabin. and
steerage travellers, while an addition
al ninety reached the port in the Pa
eific Mail Korea.
II was stated this morning that
eighteen steam lumber schpopers
we're lying idle at San Francisco At
the time the liner sailed for Honolulu.
More may be withdrawn unless. there
is decided stiffening in the rates "a
year ago sufficient bottoms could not
be secured to handle the business.
The Sierra remains at the port I'M
til Saturday noon, when the vessel
will be dispatched for San Francisco.

ANGER AMONG
CITY DADS

The anger of the supervisors over
the letter sent them by Superinten-
dent of Public Works Caldwell, in
which he threatens to shut off the.
water of the city and throw the town
in darkness, has not abated over Sun
day, but has even waxed little warm
er. Before the controversy is ended.
said they this morning, Governor
Frear will be called on to state wheth-
er he authorized Caldwell TO threaten
the city with loss of its water and
light.
At the meeting of the supervisors
Saturday, the letter, after being read,
and branded as "discourteous, "un-.
called-for" and "a product of spite,
was referred to the road committees
with Recommendation that it be.
taken up with the city and county at
torney, and an opinion be given on the.
question of whether or not the water
bills, aggregating in amount some
thing over $1,000, presented to the.
public works, should be paid.
Caldwell has informed the board
that unless it pays this amount be-
fore August 20, the water will be cut.
off. The supervisors have decided to
call his bluff They say it is impos-s
sible for them to pay it by that time
even if they wished to, as it would be
necessary for a resolution to be intro
duced and read at the three meetings
of the board But anyway, they don't,
want to-. They want to call his
bluff I"
This morning Mayor Fern and SUI
