homa, came to blows with James
G. Lyons, oil operator. here. 1t was
a climax of the days probe of the
grand jury into the affaiIs of the
closed Guaranty State Bank.
Robertson is said to have de-
Tended himself when Lyons refused
to shake hands with him, and struck
him in the face in answer to an
introduction. Another version Is
that the governor became angered
when Lyons refused to shake hands.
Gov. Robertson said: "I want the
people to know 1 can't be bluffed
physically, legally, or any other
way" The fight followed a con-
ference of the governor with County

spanIards Liked Nick Carter.

The death of the creator Of Nick
Carter will very probably cause more
widespread grief in Spain and Latin
America than in Nick's native land.
More thousands of readers, juvenile
and elders, were regular followers of
Nick's exploits in the Spanish trans
lations than there have been in Eng
disappearing countries for more than
ten years at least Travelling through
the Latin countries, you find the IA
nous weekly still prominently dis
played on nearly every news vendors
stand. The large Spanish publishing
house Of Sopena, in Barcelona, has
conducted an immense and profitable
business in making regular transla-
tons of Nick Carriers Weekly and
publishing them Whatever may be
the literary quality of the original,
the Spanish translations are such
that people of presumably finer tastes
are not ashamed to be seen reading
them. A professor of romance Ian
guage In the State university of
Maine was in Havana about three
years ago polishing up his Spanish
conversation. He openly admitted his
great fondness for the Spanish Nick
Carriers, and recommended them to
all students of Spanish for the ac-
quirement of facility in conversation.

OLD QUARRY TO BE STADIUM
Miniature California Mountain Can Be
Put to Good Use at Compare
lively Small Expense.

A short distance from Oakland, and
marking the terminus of popular
driveway along the eastern shore OF
San Francisco bay, is a miniature
mountain covering an area Of about
5 acres and 1876 feet in height. 1t
| has furnished large amount of ma
| terial for building purposes, its bowels
| being quarried out in such fashion as
| to leave only a shell of the original
| hill.
About a million and a half cubic
yards of stone have been removed by
quarrying from the inside of the hill,
which has been thereby converted into
sort of roofess amphitheater, with
a fiat, smooth floor and an entrance
through one side, represented by a
straight and narrow tunnel. this pas
sage of entrance and exit being used
for carrying out the blasted rock in
small cars on rails.
To some ingenious person the idea
occurred that the hollow hill might
be utilized for a stadium, and the
scheme is soon to be carried out, title
having been obtained by purchase
from the quarry company. 1t has cost
the company $1,500000 to create the
amphitheater as it stands (Which is
so much to the good from the buyers
point of view), and the expense of
putting it In shape for the contem-
plated purpose will be relatively small.
The aforementioned tunnel is to
be converted into an ornamental en-
trance, with concrete columns. Directly
opposite it is vertical cliff more than
100 feet high and 200 feet wide,
against which concrete stage will be
built. The floor providing for great
arena) will be encircled by a concrete
wall, from which concrete seats will
rise in tiers, with six concrete stair
ways.
Everything about the Stone Bowl,
as it is to be called, will be extremely
Greek. 1t will have seating capacity
of $4,000 persons, and the arena will
be large enough for football and base
ball games, with a running track !
around it.

BARKING UP THE WRONG TREE

While the Democratic spellbinders
are running riot on the little decep
ton of taxation, as applied to loca
conditions, NJ. Alexander is clawine
the circumambient atmosphere in
fulsome promise to cut any tax bur
dens, it might be a pretty good theory
to get down to brass tacks, so to
speak.
AS a matter of fact, relief from the
heavy local taxation burden could
not be expected within three years
should the Democratic party go into
power in this state, if it followed out
the provisions of the taxation plank
in the state platform.
To quote from the Bourbon declar-
alton of principles;
We will give the smaller tax-pay-
ing units to understand that unless
they pursue a like policy, limita-
ton on the taxing power of these
units will be fixed by legislative
enactment"
The tax levies are made by the
local boards in September. The
levy for this year is already made.
Hence, the legislature will have no
opportunity to act on the question
until it meets in January, 1923.
Then, after the legislature has
taken action to curtail the power OF
the locals boards, if it should, the,
result of that action cannot be put
into effect until the following Sep-l
TENDER, therefore period of nearly
three years would elapse before any
possible relief could be secured under
the Democratic plank.
The Republican party, on the
other hand, has used a definite,
clear-cut pledge to Immediately take
steps to curtail the levying power Of
such local boards and give taxpayers
reasonable and helpful relief. The
Republican taxation plank is plain
and straightforward:
We favor amending the laws SO
that the maximum levies which the
various taxing bodies may levy shall
be materially reduced and that any
additional leyies within another max
imum to be fixed shall not be levied
unless approved by a two-thirds vote
Of the taxpayers affected"
Republicans do not propose to wait
two or three years to see what the
boards are going to do. They will
act at the coming session of the legis-
lature. The Democratic assertion is
80 absurd as merit contempt. The
taxation problem is matter which
the Republicans will not permit to lie
on the shelf. 1t demands immediate,
intelligent and aggressive action and
will get 1t.

Smoke as Lightning Conductor.

In a recent reference to the astro-
nomical observatory on Mt. Etna, a
prominent scientist called attention to
the fact that thunderstorms are very
rare phenomena there. The observa-
tory is more than 1900 feet above the
level of the sea, and near the summit
of the volcano, yet 1t has not been
found necessary to protect it with
lightning rods. The absence of thun-
derstorms has been accounted for on
the supposition that the smoke and
hot vapor constantly rising from the
great crater Of Etna act as light
ming conductor on grand scale.
