1t will be we'll for political experts
not to forget the San Francisco cli-
mate in making their predictions about
nomination. There is little chance
that the two-thirds rule will be abol-
:shcd, although, as in every year, there
has been talk about it.
Deadlock is so normal for Democrats
that the party chiefs usually take the
precaution of meeting in some city
such as St. Louis or Baltimore.
1t is easier to be honest and stead
fast here. San Francisco may not be
the Queen City pictured by Californi-
ans, but it is pleasant and liveable.
The oysters are not much, but the
little Holsters are fine and the restau-
rant prices lower than in New York.
All sorts of climate are available.
Anybody who doesn't like cool weather
has only to travel an hour or SO away
from the coast. When it was 70 in
San Francisco yesterday we found a
day that felt like IS only twenty-five
miles back in the hills, and in Sacra-
mento, which is about 100 miles away,
it was officially l05.
The romantic San Francisco which
Wallace Irwin celebrated in his poem
seems to be gone. Whether it was the
fire or the Volstead act or some other
catastrophe we can't say. All we know is
that this is no longer a town of dis
tinct individuality. Unless you happen
to say Los Angeles" to a San Fran
ciscan there is nothing about him in
voice, manner or thought to mark the
place of his nativity. But the Los
angeles feud is one heritage which
makes the San Franciscan person
apart. Utter that word and a shoe
clerk will assume all the fearfulness
of a two-gun man back in the bad old
days Of '49.
"The Chronicle" to-day congratulates
Detroit on its rapid increase in popu-

Col. Lucien r. Sweet, inspector

acute stages,
Regular army troops were order

LIFE In DUBLIN

Dublin, Dec. 16.-Searchers for
evidence against the promoters OF
Sim Fein outrages which are con-
Quoted by the police or military au-
thorities are among the notable
features of life in d u b II n.
They usually take place in the day
time in the early morning hours.
In making them, the authorities
have committed some blunders,
THE military motor trucks used to
drive up in front of a suspected
house and stop there while the
searchers entered the building. The
trucks were left in charge of only
a few men. This proved tempting

quently surprised those on guard.
No risk is taken now. The
whole street, no matter what lis
Importance, is cleared of all traf-
fic for distance on both sides or
the suspected house and the
searchers can thus do their work
without apprehension Of being TAX
en- In the rear.
The fact that a house is raided
implies no reflection on it's owners.
Some of the most respected of
Dublin unionists have had their
premises exhaustively searched.
There have been several searches
in Sackville street, Dublin's prin-
cipal thoroughfare and the start
ing point or junction of all its ex-
tensive street car system. A raid
there meant that the street cars
were held up all along the line and
thus citizens half a mile or more
away would learn that a raid was
in progress. While the search was
going on, armored cars would dash
about and prevent entrance to the
area within the line set by the au-
thorities.
The results indicate that the gov
ernment at last is obtaining infor-
nation.
An incident which indicates that
the government agents are not the
only ones who are collecting weap-,
ons under the decree that arms
must be surrendered. occurred the
other day at one of Dublin's most
fashionable clubs. There were two
old revolvers in the club room.
The police heard of them and no.
titled the club that they would
have to be surrendered. A few days
later two men appeared and de-
manded the revolvers, which were
to them. After they
had gone, the club members looked
at the receipt given for them and
found it was signed Mutt and

REPRESENTATIVE URGES
FREEING FTLIPINOS

Washington Dec. 16.-Rhilip-
pine independence was advocated
today in the house by Representa-
tive Frear, republican, of Wiscon-
sin, who declared the United States
should not continue it's hold of the
islands by armed soldiers station
ed there. 'just as we have main
tanned an army in Russia, a force
of marines in Santo Domingo and
Haiti. in our peculiar governmental
system of regulating the affairs of

Mr.. Frear said a recent visit to
the islands with a congressional
delegation had convinced him that
the Philippine government had
fulfilled the conditions set by con-
gress for granting independence.

Riot Result of Shooting

Riot Result of Shooting.
The riot was a result of the

liceman with knife.
The riot occurred at the Luneta
police station. Just outside the
walled city, and then proceeded
within the walled city, where pro-
miscuous firing between the police
and constabulary men took place.
Police reserves with riot guns
rushed to the walled city, where
shots were exchanged. The Fill
pinos killed a patrol wagon driver
and six bystanders. Four Filipinos

Governor Takes Hand.
Governor General Francis Bur-

fael Crane, Filipino chief of the
constabulary, took active steps to
quell the rioting.
The governor found the armed
constabularly congregated at the
walled city and advised them to
return to their barracks and in
structed General Crane to hold all
constabularly in the barracks. Dis
orders ceased upon the arrival Of
General Crane, who placed mem

in the shooting under arrest and
announced they would be tried be-
fore civil courts.
Mayor Ramon Fernandez de-

dangerous to the peace of the
community, and announced he
would ask the governor to have

FINDLAY SAYS

Buy goods only as you need
them. Don't speculate on
rising market.
The undertaken is lucky
mamie makes money even
when things go down.
Only five percent of the
grocers make money; 20 per-
cent don't know whether they
are making money or not; the
other rs percent are just lap
ahead of the sheriff all their
lives.
Don't scorn the lemon. When
someone hands you one make
lemonade.
The merchant who marked
up prices on the rising market
and will not mark down on a
falling market is a bum sport.
The grocery to whom you
pay a $40 account is getting
only 81 cents in profit.
Nobody ever made 100 per-
cent on sale. 1t can't be
done.
Solomon was a wonderful
business man. He still is. Look
around town and see If that
isn't so.
The merchant who doesn't
pay himself a salary for his
time is not using good business
methods.

IN the negro quarter fighting and
shouting
At o'clock the fighting had ex-
tended In some cases outside the
city limits with whites in pursuit
of negroes The negroes seemed to
have few fire arms and rushed
about in panic, seeking to escape.
Reports to the police, however, in
dicated that the negroes had fired
on the white in several instances.
Town of $4,000 Inhabitants
Most of the population of lnde-
pendence, which has $4,000 inhab-
itants, obeyed the orders of the
police to remain in their homes to
avoid stirring up further trouble.
A posse captured the negro late
today near here and he was
brought to the Independence Jail,
Negroes Refused TO Disperse.
The trouble started when Mayor
j. L. Wadman and Chief of Police
Hall approached group of about
twenty negroes on the street. The
negroes were armed, according to
the authorities, and when they
were asked to go home, they re-
fused, Just then a group of white
men came down the street and one
of the negroes, according to the
authorities, fired into them, A
general fusillade then began, with
the original forces augmented.
Lawrence Lennon, white boy
was shot through the lungs and
died forty minutes later. Arthur
Harper, negro, was instantly killed.
Fred Kelley, white, was shot In
the hip and Arthur Mibeck and +.
IS. McHenry both received body
wounds in the exchange OF shots.
The last three named are not ex-
pected to live, according to physi-
clans.
Rifles and shotguns were used tn
the fighting.

1t Is sound business principle
to price merchandise in relation to
ascending or descending wholesale
prices, Mr.. Findlay declared. He
said that the merchant who was
not willing to accept this principle,
working both ways, is bum sport.
Helping Mail Order Man.
you bellyache because the mail
order man is cutting in on your
business and you are helping him
to do 1t. One of the Chicago mail
order houses has sent its patrons
checks aggregating five million
dollars, refunds on checks sent In
for goods on which prices have
fallen. Thousands of these checks
are scattered over the country for
amounts of $1.4S and S2.90 and
1918 and more. What argument
can you give woman who has one
of these checks if you have not
reduced your prices where the cost
has fallen?"
To illustrate his point, Mr.. Find
lay took the example of an article
that was bought by the merchant
fop a price of So dozen. This has
sold for 35 cents. giving him a
margin of $1.20. Now If the price
has dropped to 81 the merchant
should mark down his price to 25
cents, regardless of the fact he paid
SO a dozen for the article.
And Still Make Money.

that article for rs cents because

Shots In the Street.
Various minor clashes resulted
