state employees and four year
term of office will never reduce the
high cost Of government.
The argument of some parties
that the recall would tend to weak
en- the knees of public officials is
not nearly so forcible as is the fact
that it might cause them to resi-
tate before getting too autocratic.
The voters of the state will do
we'll 20 hesitate before giving added
power to state governors. A little
more education and a little more
care in selecting state officials will
go far toward solving the political
questions. but any additions to the
powers of the governor might
prove a mighty expensive expert

One of the biggest factors in
Ireland at the present critical mo-
ment is the new commander of the
forces, Sir Nevil Macready, who.
contrary to popular opinion, is a
man who hates strife, and is a

1t is said that his greatest ambition
is to retire from active life to the

rusticate among the ruined or

UNCLE WIGGHG AND THE
FOUNTAIN.
(By Howard r. CARTS.

Uncle Wiggily and Nurse Jane
were sitting on the stoop of the
hollow stump bungalow one hot
evening after the Fourth of July.
Uncle Wiggily was tanning him
self with his tall silk hat and
Nurse Jane had a pieplant leaf,
which is as good a fan as one
could wish.
All of a sudden Uncle Wiggily
arose from the stoop where he had
been sitting and started around to-
ward the back of the house.
What are you going to do p
asked Nurse Jane.
81 am going to make fountain,
answered the bunny rabbit gen.

"A fountain" exclaimed Nurse
Jane. why are you going to do
that and how can you make a
fountain?" -E

CALIFORNIA LETTER No. 2.

One of our stage party remarked tC
another, ''Well. we have seen rocks
before. but never such as these" That,
too, was my impression as we entered
this Garden of The Gods" which is
hemmed in on either side oy granite
walls and evergreen hills for from
rs, 900 to almost so, 600 feet high, most
of them perpendicular.
Almost the first thought that sug-
gests itself is, how was this marvellous
following out process performed. Geol-
ogists assure us that it was by the
mighty force of the onrushing river
which at one time flowed on the level
of the top of these heights. OF course
we dare not dispute their conclusions
or opinions, but we may enjoy some
immaginations of our own, and one of
mine is, that the Great Creator, after
making man, decided to make for m
great play ground and with one
mighty stroke severed a mountain in
twain, throwing out half to the right
and the other half to the left, and in
the course of ages the floor was filled
in with the rich soil from the higher
elevations, the seeds of the thousands
of varieties of vegetation gradually de-
posted, and 10, we have the incompar-
able Yosemite Valley. feel justified
in this romantic guess by the fact that
the great chiseling process was perpen- /
dcular in place of the opposite, as
would be the case if the geologistic
theory is correct
But anyway, we have the wonderful
valley, and may rejoice in the fact that |
every man. woman and child in America
is part owner of this vast estate, for |
vast it is, the valley itself averaging |
one mile wide and is eigh miles long,
whilst the whole Yosemite park has an
area of LIPS square miles or no, 9,622
acres. So if some of our school boys
or girls wish to determine just what
interest they individually own in this
big ranch, why simply say, ''go to it"
with their pencils. The great satisfac-
ton is that when one gets here it Is
free to all = that is the pure cool air
and water and all that the eye can
take in. But it is not quite so with
what the inner man requires. as will
explain a little later on.

and equipment in advance of our COM

The clock ticks 80 minutes and

1t ticks for another 30 minutes and
another person is killed.
And so it goes hour in and hour out Of

every 30 minutes some one Is killed
in this country through automobile
accidents. The grand total is over l5.-
900 deaths vear.
These were facts brought out at a
recent meeting of the National Safety
council in Atlantic City. 1t is an aston
ishing record. And something ought to
be done about it. no doubt. With almost
10, 900, 600 autos in use and the number
growing, the chances are not that acci-
dents will be fewer.
II bebooves both the pedestrian and
the driver Of a motor car to take care,
to be doubly careful Watch your
step is sound logic for walkers. "Be
always on guard, and your car under
perfect control. good advice for chauf-

Our request was certainly complied with,
for our location could not be Improved

This SUN goes into the park road fund,
and is used exclusively for extending
and improving the many roads. All the
main drives in the park and many of
the side drives are sprinkled cry day.
There are about 5000 people in the
park at present. In July there were
10000 and over 1000 autos. They are
here from all parts of the United States
and Canada We have just present
tent neighbors from Chicago, Phiadel-
phia. Montreal, Missouri, Iowa and Cal
ifornia. Ii is gratifying to know that
the man of wealth. the employc and the
rancher seem to feel themselves on one
common level
| should remark that one coming by
auto may rent any part of their re-

to tent it, for you may be entertained
at the hotel in the most elaborate style

in the tent you can live as extrava-
gantly or as Todestly as you please.
But the rerHon of moderate means has
a few things to learn to admit of living
here at all. He pays 81 50 rent for the
first week. $3, so thereafter that is for

he should bring in all the staple supplies
necessary for his sojourn here. There
