MANY Lives Lost.

London, Oct. 31.-Late reports from
Whisky say 81 lost their lives in the
wrecked Rohilla. The ship was al
most battered to pieces.

alone the savings banks deposits ex-
ceeded $780, 100000 for the first time
in history.
At that time the San Jose Mercury,
now supporting Fredericks for gov
ernor, said editorially:
$50 that in the metropolis of the
Pacific coast we have more cash and
greater confidence per capita than in
any ether city of it's size in the coun-
try, end this with Wilson reigniny
in Washington and Hiram johnson at
Sacramento"
The increase in the assets of build
ing and loan associations from 1910
to 1914, while Johnson has been gov
ernor, is greater than any previous pc
riod. In 1910 they were $21 ,250,000;
in 1914, $29, 100000.
In discussing state highways Fred
ericks has favorite phrase. He tells
his audiences that in most places of
the state very little of the highway
has been built. Then he adds:
"In this section you have more high
way built than in any other part OF
the state"
After that he adds that it is due
to the pull of some local "crony of
the governor"
1t is on record that he said the
same thing in Santa Clara county, in
Fresno county and heaven knows
how many other places. 1t is part
of the Fredericks campaign of bunk.
| The Los Angeles Times, which put
Fredericks into the fight for COVER
nor and is now his chief support, is
demanding the repeal of the direct
primary law which destroys boss-con-
trolled conventions. (,
"The first duty of the next state
Legislature is to dipe out the wicked
direct primary law" says the Times
in it's editorial columns, and it is re-
peating the demand from day to day.

Waiting on carranza.

Washington, June 27.-Administra-
tion officials and Constitutionalist rep
resentatives were still waiting for Car
rama to decide whether he would
send ENJOYS to Niagara Falls to dis
cuss with Huerta's delegates the con-
ditions for a restoration of peace in
Mexico.
General Huerta today notified the
State Department of his willingness
for Vice-Consul Silliman to return to
his post at Saltillo. This is due to the
fact that the American Government
promised when Silliman was released
from the Mexican prison that he would
be taken out of Mexico, not to return.
Saltillo is now held by the Constitu-
tionalists but the United States de-
sired to preserve good faith and asked
Huerta whether or not he objected to
Silliman's return.

Prussian Supreme Court Rules Against
messiah"
(Bp Associated Press.)

Berlin, June 27.-That films present
ing the person Of Jesus are calculat-
ed to shock the sensibilities of re-
ligious people and may not be present
ed in Prussia, is the final decision Of
the Prussian supreme court, uphold
ing a police prohibition of the pic
lures. The film story was taken from
Klopstocks Messiah" 1t is preten-
tious example of cinematographic art.
The court, ruling against it, bases its
decision on former decision, holding
the Christian religion to be a part of
the public order, against whose dis
turbance the police are empowered to
act. 1t considers the film in itself
likely to offend, and declares a fur
ther possibility of offense is the fact
that it might be presented in connec-
ton with comic scenes.

Strike Quicksand
In Digging For
Oil at Sanford
THREATENED TO STOP OPERA.
rIoNs, BUT EXTRA LABOR AND
MUD HELP SITUATION.

The oil we'll which is being bored by
w. s. F. Tatum at Sanford, has struck
thick bed Of quicksand, which for a
time threatened to stop operations.
After reaching depth of about 400
feet the boring had to stop and during
the night the well filed up for a depth
of 80 feet. On the following night
they were forced to stop again and
the well filed up another 80 feet.
When Mr. Tatum sent in a few days
ago for extra help in order to work
day and night in combating the quick
sand, the rumor started that he had
struck oil, and until it was contra
dicted caused some excitement.
The only way in which the drill car
be made to work in quicksand is by
throwing mud in to mix with the SAND
so that the bucket will pick it up.
The depth of the well now is in tn,
neighborhood of 500 feet.
The drilling on the well at Seminar,
is about ready to begin. The derricl
has been completed and the machin
cry is ready to be installed.
