NOTES OF FRISCO FAIR Getting Ready to Receive the President for Ground-Breaking (Correspondence of The Gazette) San Francisco, Sept. 25.—President Taft will arrive in this city on Friday October 13. On the evening of his arrival he will be the guest of honor at a banquet tendered him by the exposition company and the following day (Saturday, Oct. 14th) he will review the big parade and also break ground for the 1915 exposition at the Stadium, Golden Gate Park. He will leave Sunday for the southern section of the state. M. C. Katze, assistant secretary of the Kern county merchants association of Bakersfield, in a letter to F. L. Brown, states that at a meeting held by the board of supervisors of Kern county, attended by a representative gathering of business men the board decided to fix the tax levy so that Kern county will raise $100,000 for the fair and will erect a building of its own in which to make its display. The design by Artist John C. Terry for the official souvenir program for the ground breaking ceremonies which will be published exclusively by the exposition company for the benefit of the exposition fund, was accepted by the committee. It is in four colors, with a figure of California in the foreground. The American flag, royal purple drapery, fruits and flowers are used for decorative purposes in the design. Willis Polk, Clarence R. Ward and W. B. Faville, eminent architects of our Fairmont park course in Philadelphia, and undoubtedly better than any other made-to-order course in the country. This course may be simplified and improved, when the committees in charge of the race make their final arrangements. A million spectators will be able to view the race from commanding eminence along the course. It is planned to have the co-operation of the militia and federal troops to safeguard the spectators and the contestants in the spectacular event. Jack Fleming, winner of the great road contest across the bay, recently went over the proposed course, and enthused over the possibilities of driving over it in a real road race. He declared that the only share turn was at the corner of Sloat boulevard and 19th avenue, and expressed the opinion that he could go around the other curves at the rate of sixty miles per hour. POINTS IN WOMEN'S FIGHT From Standpoint of One Opposed to Equal Suffrage Editor Gazette.—A number of representative women were discussing the suffrage question, as is apt to be the case where two or three women gather together these days, for the woman who does not believe that the ballot in the hands of woman is for the best interests of home and state is as interested and as loyal to her side of the controversy as is the woman who is going up and down the public highways crying lustily for the right to vote. "I don't think it is fair for them as well as for viding amusement and to doing their work necessary of the great Assoc." "But, quite apart fact that woman talents and employ advantage availal arena, there is her vote too often bigotry ofo the hater how broad mentioned she mans with, the average time nor low the intricate political game. He as far superior to politician as the Addams is above but the fact remains natural bent does. The more conscientious would make sure follow the game, chise for women exclusive property and intelligent. "Even in the cottious woman who orders to follow local is usually far from average woman who to read even one day, far less than she reads two eases on local polls be but the reflective editor of her man is not so much his pet editor; his questions on the lunch counter." The design by Arthur John C. Ry for the official souvenir program for the ground breaking ceremonies which will be published exclusively by the exposition company for the benefit of the exposition fund, was accepted by the committee. It is in four colors, with a figure of California in the foreground. The American flag, royal purple drapery, fruits and flowers are used for decorative purposes in the design. Willis Polk, Clarence R. Ward and W. B. Faville, eminent architects of this city will supervise the plans for the fair. Polk was for twelve years associated with D. H. Burnham, the famous architect, who was the chief architect and director of works of the exposition at Chicago. Polk was the originator of the Burnham plans for the beautifycation and adornment of San Francisco. He is forty-four years of age, and has been a resident of this city since 1886. He is a descendant of President James K. Polk of the United States, under whose administration California and the Pacific Coast territory was annexed by this country. W. B. Faville was born in California forty-four years ago. He went east with his parents when two years old and grew up in western New York. He had six years architectural office experience and took a special course at the Massachusetts institute of technology, at the end of which he became instructor at that institution for a short period. He entered the offices of M cKim, Mead and White, the famous New York architects, being in their employ four years. He subsequently associated himself with Walter D. Bliss and opened offices in this city. Among the buildings which the firm has designed are the St. Francis hotel, the Bank of California, the Savings Union Bank of San Francisco, Columbia theater,C children’s hospital, Oakland library, and a great deal of residential work. John Barrett, director general of the Pan-American Union, in a telegramme to President Chas. C. Moore, which was received today, said: "Have just had a long talk with President Taft and bade him farewell on his western trip. He isl ooking forward with real pleasure to his visit to California and the breaking of ground for the international exposition in the success of which he is sincerely interested. The decisive reason for extending his journey to the Pacific Coast is to help, in his capacity as president of the whole land to inaugurate auspiciously work of presentative women were discussing the suffrage question, as is apt to be the case where two or three women gather together these days, for the woman who does not believe that the ballot in the hands of woman is for the best interests of home and state is as interested and as loyal to her side of the controversy as is the woman who is going up and down the public highways crying lustily for the right to vote. "I don't think it is fair for the men to take a side in this matter," said a leading suffragist, "this is a woman's fight, and the men have no right to form an organization to fight us." "No, indeed," echoed half a dozen enthusiasts, "the men who are opposing suffrage are taking an unfair advantage." "But what of the men who are lining up for suffrage?" asked an anti-suffragist. "Oh well, that's different, they merely want to help us," and all the rest was drowned in the laughter that followed. "That is just like a woman," said Mrs. J. B. Lippincott, one of the group, "it is all the difference in the world whose ox is gored and who does the goring." Perhaps no woman is better or more favorably known in Los Angeles than Mrs. Lippincott, an active worker in the field of woman's clubs and one of the most active anti-suffragists, though working in a quiet way. Mrs. Lippincott is a member of the executive board of the Southern California association opposed to woman suffrage, keenly interested in every live question of the day. Pressed for her reason for opposing suffrage, Mrs. Lippincott said: "I do not want to vote, and yet I am a modern woman, modern to my finger tips. I want to do my share towards making the world a better place to live in, but somehow, I cannot see that suffrage for women is the right way, or even a good way. In spite of all the arguments of the suffragists, and I have heard most of them, I believe this suffrage clamor to be a big mistake. One suffrage orator comes along and tells a waiting world that the ballot will raise the wages of working women, and fast on her heels, comes another, like Mrs. Helen Wixon, state superintendent of public instruction Colorado, and says that it will do no such thing. Thus each successive leader tears the props from under the arguments of her predecessors to follow local officials usually far from average woman or to read even one day; far less than less she reads two eases on local police but but the reflective editor of her man is not so much his pet editor; her questions on the lunch counter chair and he is joined to have his recent modified by hearty referred to as He has a thousand expressing his own ing criticism there are seldom so fragrant, the discussion the heated kind wives their combatants encounter among natured chaff and ion which so helps sider hastily formed.

"I assured him that he could count on a spontaneous and hearty non-partisan welcome, such as only San Francisco can give, and I believe that the people of San Francisco will back me up in the assurance I took the liberty of giving him." Chairman Brown of the press and publicity committee of the exposition will submit to the directors of the company the plan for holding an international automobile road race in Golden Gate Park on Washington's birthday, Feb. 22, next. Director Brown has sent invitations to Fred J. Wagner, official starter of the American automobile association, and S. M. Butler, of the contest board, and Assistant Starter F. Lowry, to come to this city for conference, with a view to securing a sanction for the meet and to make all arrangements for the great Panama-Pacific international exposition automobile road race. The course as proposed for the great race extends from the Baker street entrance to the Panhandle, and through the park to the great highway at the Ocean Beach down the highway to the Sloat boulevard, then to 19th avenue, to the H street entrance to Golden Gate park, down the South drive, and back to the Baker street entrance. This will form a thirteen-mile race course, and be superior to the fam- suffragists, and I have heard most of them, I believe this suffrage clamor to be a big mistake. "One suffrage orator comes along and tells a waiting world that the ballot will raise the wages of working women, and, fast on her heels, comes another, like Mrs. Helen Wixon, state superintendent of public instruction of Colorado, and says that it will do no such thing. Thus each successive leader tears the props from under the arguments of her predecessor and the merry war rolls wildly on, gathering more fury than reason in its sad chase after the ballot. "When I am told that a vote for women would bring untold benefits to the woman wage earner, I look to the records of Colorado and find that the women are more poorly paid there than elsewhere, for there, as elsewhere, it is the law of supply and demand which regulates wages. The right to vote never has and never will have, anything whatever to do with it. Before I will believe that the right to vote will revolutionize wages, I want some explanation as to how it can possibly be expected to overrule the great natural law of supply and demand. Unskilled labor will always be had for the price of unskilled labor, whether in the world marts or in enlightened Colorado, with its equal suffrage franchise for men and women. Yet the suffragists tell us that the problem of the unskilled woman laborer receiving the wages of unskilled labor, is all due to her inability to vote. "By all means let women be enthusiastic for civic betterment. The schools, hospitals, and what one might call the house-keeping of the cities should have women as well as men on the boards of managers. But until these matters can be separated from ward politics, I think women should be better to devote their superfluous energies to the day nurseries; to founding schools for mistres- ANAHÉIM GAZETTE Philathan in the implicom make able standing it is in of safe contesgreat recent course, politics race. turn poulevessed around of six NT ed to reppassing to be women the best for state to her the wothe for the ses as well as for servants; to providing amusements for poor children and to doing the unpaid, but heroic work necessary to the daily routine of the great Associated Charities. "But, quite apart from the obvious fact that woman can use her natural talents and employ her time to better advantage away from the political arena, there is a grave reason why her vote too often brings with it the bigotry ofo the half-informed, no matter how broad minded and well intentioned she may be. To begin with, the average woman has neither the time nor the inclination to follow the intricate workings of the political game. Her abilities may be as far superior to those of the ward politician as the ability of a Jane Addams is above that of some men, but the fact remains that woman's natural bent does not lie politically. The more conscientious and intelligent would make a brave endeavor to follow the game, but then the franchise for women can never be the exclusive property of the conscientious and intelligent. "Even in the case of the conscientious woman who faithfully endeavors to follow local politics, the result is usually far from satisfactory. The average woman does not have time to read even one newspaper thoroughly, far less than two or three, and unless she reads two or three, her ideas on local politics are too apt to be but the reflection of the views of the editor of her daily paper. A man is not so much at the mercy of his pet editor; he discusses public questions on the street cars, across the lunch counters, or in the barber a few minutes a number of them appeared. Messack Kortangha, an 18-year-old Armenian boy, was returned to the state school at Whittier Saturday. The boy was one of a gang of fourteen reform school boys working for Fred Bixby at Los Alamitos. He stole a horse, saddle and bridle, rode away, and was caught here. EQUAL SUFFRAGE MEETING Senator Lee Gates addressed a number of Fullerton citizens on Saturday evening on the Midland hotel grounds on equal suffrage. He also gave a brief explanation of the referendum, initiative and recall. Senator Gates being the author of two of the 23 proposed amendments, all who failed to hear him missed a treat. His reasons for believing in equal suffrage, he made very clear. Anyone who is familiar with our constitution ought to see how unjust and one-sided things were in the beginning, and how hard it is for the custom of 135 years to be overcome. All of us know that the beginning of the constitution is, "We the people of the United States." Who are the people? Men? Senator Gates spoke of men as accidental citizens, because they happened to be born boys instead of girls. All arguments against woman suffrage are smashed to smithereens,and only those who favor impure government or those who are prejudiced against equal suffrage will keep amendment No. 8 from passing on the 10th of October. A very interesting meeting was held in the opera house at Anaheim Sunday afternoon. Judge ors to follow local politics, the result is usually far from satisfactory. The average woman does not have time to read even one newspaper thoroughly, far less than two or three, and unless she reads two or three, her ideas on local politics are too apt to be but the reflection of the views of the editor of her daily paper. A man is not so much at the mercy of his pet editor; he discusses public questions on the street cars, across the lunch counters, or in the barber chair and he is just as likely as not to have his recently acquired views modified by hearing his editorial diety referred to as a fool or a knave. He has a thousand opportunities for expressing his own views and receiving criticism thereupon. But women are seldom so frank, and when they are, the discussion is apt to be of the heated kind which only entrenchs the combatants more firmly in their own opinions. Women seldom encounter among themselves the good natured chaff and frank contradiction which so help the men to reconsider hastily formed opinions. "At the same time, I would not have women confine her entire energies to the happenings within four walls. I would not have the woman of wealth and leisure hold herself aloof from the problems of her sister in the wage earning world. If her longing for world betterment is sincere; not merely the restless craving for excitement which besets so many would-be politicians of the feminine persuasion, she will attack the work which lies nearest her hand, rather than reach out after that for which she is unfitted. And this is what I would have her do: "I would like her to be more interested in assuring herself that the label of the consumer's league is attached to her purchase, than she is in the price-ticket, which, by its glaring inadequacy, proclaims that the garment has been the fruit of labor and tears. "I would like her to refuse to shop after five o'clock, so that the pleasant-sounding phrase, "we close at five thirty" may not be merely a mockery to the tired saleswoman who has to sort up her stocks and add up her sales long after the great doors are supposed to be closed. "I should like to know that her servants are treated like human beings; that they have a place in which they may receive their friends; that their rooms are comfortable, and that they occasionally have time to themselves." Men? Senator Gates spoke of men as accidental citizens, because they happened to be born boys instead of girls. All arguments against woman suffrage are smashed to smithereens, and only those who favor impure government or those who are prejudiced against equal suffrage will keep amendment No. 8 from passing on the 10th of October. A very interesting meeting was held in the opera house at Anaheim Sunday afternoon. Judge Dillon, formerly of Colorado, E. V. Chaves, a prominent lawyer of San Gabriel, and Miss Lopez, also of San Gabriel, spoke on equal suffrage. Chas. Farwell Edson of Los Angeles, delighted the audience with several solos. ROCKS AS RESERVOIRS The capacity oof rocks to imbibe moisture varies with their physical structure. Most of the water in the rocks occurs in pores and interstices, the larger part of the world's well-water supply being derived from saturated porous beds, only a small part of it being obtained from caverns or large cavities. Practically all rocks, however compact they may appear to the yee, have interstices and small cavities in which water may be stored. The degree of porosity of rocks, being highest in open-textured loose sands, sandstones, gravels and chalks, all of which have great capacity for imbibing water, and lowest in close-textured clays, slates, marbles, and granites, which have very small capacity for absorbing and transmitting water. Some rocks, however, such as granite, which in their original condition are almost impervious, become water bearing through the development of fractures and crevices. The capacity of rocks for transmitting water is different from their capacity for imbibition. In certain fine-grained rocks the pore spaces are so small that they will not readily transmit water. Hence rocks like chalk or brick, which absorb water freely, transmit it slowly, whereas others with no greater total pore space transmit it readily. Sandstones, for instance, vary greatly in texture and consequently in their capacity for carrying water.

"I should like to know that her servants are treated like human beings; that they have a place in which they may receive their friends; that their rooms are comfortable, and that they occasionally have time to themselves. "I should like to be sure that her daughters are being trained to be good wives and mothers, and that her sons are being trained to interest themselves in the manly, worth-while things of life, rather than in the feverish chase after the almighty dollar. "I should like her to spend some time keeping just as pretty, dainty and young as possible, so that the reproach of unbrushed hair and frowsy collar may be removed from the earnest women of the world. “If woman does all this—or even a part of it—will she have time to read the newspaper accounts of ward-heelers and their squabbles? Will she not rather say, with a contented little laugh, ‘Oh, I leave all those political affairs to the men—I have my Own work to do.’” SANTA ANA Harry Jesse, son of A. L. Jesse of Newhope, is in a serious condition as the result of injuries received when a team of horses he was leading on through a gate jammed him against a gate post. The boy was unconscious for several hours thereafter. After being informed of the accident, the boy’s father, a blacksmith, ran across the fields to where his son was. The father, with his face black, was seen by a woman who mistook him for a negro. Thinking he was the negro wanted for the Compton murder, the woman telephoned to officers and in hers with no greater total pore space transmit it readily. Sandstones, for instance, vary greatly in texture and consequently in their capacity for carrying water. REFORESTERS MEETING Assistant Forester Comes from Washington to A ttend Meeting Word has been received from the United States Forest Service that Assistant Forester Adams of Washington will be present at the meeting of the Tri-Counties Reforestation Committee to be held at Redlands on October 5, 1911. The committee will transact its regular business at the meeting in the morning. At 1:30 p.m. an open meeting will be held at which will be discussed the matter of the recent fire in the San Bernardino mountains and better methods of cooperation with the forest service to prevent a recurrence of the same. All who are interested in this subject are invited to this meeting and will have an opportunity to be heard. SURVEY OF NEWPORT HARBOR Capt. Chas. T. Leeds of the United States Engineers of Los Angeles has recommended to the government that a survey of Newport harbor be made, but advises against improving the harbor at government expense, as he thinks the territory has plenty of railway connections with the outer world, and expresses the belief that the development of a deep water harbor at that locality is advisable. In view of the fact that the question of improving this harbor at local expense has been taken up by citizens of the community, the engineer recommends that the survey be made. This is a great disappointment to the people of Newport, for there is not the least doubt that Newport harbor could be made one of the best on the coast. Government aid is needed: Cordova Wines and Brandies We have added this popular line to our stock. The fame of Cordova Wines and Brandies is almost world-wide.

Need more than 300 bookkeepers and stenographers this year to supply demand made for help of this kind. In order to get them, I am running this notice in 125 papers this week. Positions Guaranteed My want to be able to supply the demand, and to show that I know what talking about I make this proposition: Pay me one-third your tuition, and the other two-thirds out of your salary, after you have position. Should I fail to get you a position within 90 days after graduation, you do not pay the other two-thirds, and are released from all ties to me. My graduates are earning on an average of a little more than a month each. No other school can make this claim for its graduating fact is certainly worth the consideration of any young person attending to take a business education. Question Question Can you pay one-third of a definite amount of tuition on entering and then end of securing a position paying not less than $900 a year, before you pay any more tuition, isn’t it a better proposition than to pay $75 for a month each. No other school can make this claim for its graduation fact is certainly worth the consideration of any young person attending to take a business education. Monthly Tuition Monthly plan may sound “good” to some, especially if the monthly rate is slightly low; but, regardless of the rate, the amount your tuition is cost you is indefinite and the position is just as much indefinite. Over the monthly rate of tuition the less the probability of securing a place with me you know the day you enter, exactly what it is going to be you know that you are going to get a position when you finish. The rates of tuition will be increased October 15. No further extension. Call and see me or write as soon as you read this. David R.
