SAN BERNARDINO. May 31— Local
Insurance men have been notified of a
20 per cent raise in the rates on nearly
all commercial business, to take effect
at once, as a result of the San Fran

It Takes
Nerve
Everything depends upon
your nerves. It is nerve force
that causes the brain to direct
the motion of your body ; it is
nerve force that causes your
heart to pulsate, and send the
blood through your veins; it
is nerve force that causes your
stomach to digest food, your
kidheys to filter the blood, and
the liver to secrete bile.
In fact, nerve force is the
power that runs your body, so
if you feel worn-out, irritable,
N nervous, cannot sleep, or eat
well, have pain or misery
anywhere, your nerves are
weak, and your system run-
down. .To restore this vitality
take Dr. Miles' Nervine which
will strengthen and build up
the nerves. You cannot be
healthy without stronp nerves.
• "For eighteen • year* Dr. Mllei"
Nervine and Anti-Pain Pills have been

ried life, while railing cbtldren, my

PRINTING EXPENSE
MAY BAR CHARTER
SAN PEDRO CITIZENS FACE
SERIOUS PROBLEM
Bids for Legal Advertising Will Make
Documents' Publishing Cost
Nearly Total Taxes Levied
Last Year
Special to The Herald.
HAN PEDRO, May 31.— The city
council of San Pedro has to face a dim
cult proposition In regard to tho pro
posed plan of getting a freeholder's
charter. Heretofore there hns been
competition In municipal printing so
that the city whs ahlo to got this work
done at a reasonable price. The sale
of the San Pedro Times lust week has
brought about a change in this, and
when the bonrd met last Tueßday night
to open bids for printing for the ensuing
year they found but one bid, and that n
Joint one of the two papers. The rate
named whs 75 cents per Inch for tho
first insertion and 70 cents for each
subsequent insertion.
Will Require Much Printing
To obtain a freeholders charter re
quires a largo amount of printing. A
copy of the charter after it is framed
Is required to be printed, and If It is ns
long ns most of the similar charters are
of other towns It will cost between
$7000 and $8000 for this alone. Then
there Is the cost of calling the elections
and other expense which will bring the
total up to at leaal $10,000, a great deal
more than was at first supposed.
Wants Backing of People
Said one of the trustees today: "1
do not see how we can stand such an
expense and before I will vote for It 1
will have to know that I am backed by
the people. I will resign before I will
take the responsibility of such an un
warrantable expense on my own shoul
ders."
The tax of the city as assessed and
collected the past year was only about
$10,000, and should this added tax have
to be pnid it would entail double that
which the people are accustomed to.
This, it Is said, will cause the citizens
to rise in their might and possibly take
extreme measures.

ever, that the new National Bank of

and thai in this case no six-foot tun
nel to the ocean was necessary.

if such a tunnel Is designed as the .pre
liminary step to the introduction of a

CLEW IS SPIRITED AWAY
Special to The Herald.
PASADENA. May 31.— There were
no new developments today in the Lo
gan murder mystery, although when
some one started a rumor that a cer
tain negro had been arrested for the
crime there came near being a stam
pede among the colored people of the
neighborhood until the rumor was
proven false.
There is considerable excitement
over the case, but the officers of the
law insist that they are not going to
be driven to make any arrests until
they have indisputable proof of some
sort.
A curious thing came to light today
in the absolute disappearance of a
handkerchief which was found lying
under the head of the murdered man
as it lay in the ditch below the Ray
mond hotel. This handkerchief was
not particularly scrutinized 'at' ,the
time, but was placed with Logan's
clothing In the natural belief that it
must have been his.
Today some one desired to examine
this handkerchief with a view to learn
ing positively, whether It- belonged to
the dead man or not. But it could not
be found. :■.■;■ ".'?- ' •
The presumption is that it has -been
spirited away by some ono. interested
in destroying all possible clews and
that it did not belong to Logan at all.
This conclusion indicates how excited
the public mind is over the search -for
the murderer. . ' .' ,
