? LEAVITT SAYS BUY EARL &
IS RAILROAD TRICKSTER
Explains Attempt to Repeal
the Crossing Bill Was
an Imposition
each company paying one half of the
expense of. such separation; and pro
vided further that the foregoing
provision shall not be construed
as requiring a separation of
grades when such separation is
physically impracticable, and in case
of any djspute or controversy as to the
physical practicability of any under
grade or overhead crossing, the same
shall be determined by the Superior
Court of the county in which such
county is situated in an action or pro
ceeding brought by either party for
that purpose.'
EATIL. PLAYED TRICK ' . .
Leavitt declined to discuss the mo
tives behind the bill or to speculate
about the connections of Earl, who
asked him to introduce the measure.
He did say that it could not pass as in
troduced and emphatically denied any
intention to assist in any way to se
cure the repeal of the crossing law.
Senator Leavitt said:
The bill was handed to me by Guy C. Earl, a
San Kr^ncisoo attorney aud a former Senator. I
know nothing about Uls eanMrttnna boyoud the
report that he, Is interested. • oltiicr direotly or
indirectly. In some power company. Earl in
formed me that tbe only new matter in the bill
was the new section numbered three, authorizing
the coudemnation of lan<3? owned or held !a trust
by tbe Lnited States, and wctioa 0. providing
precrflure for such condemnation. I see no good
reason wty highways Kiiouid not run over Federal
lands, and sssumlug that the sections indicated
to me were the only changes ia the existing law
1 introduced the bill.
I now find, upon looking the matter up care
fully, that tbe over aud under grade crossing
provisions of the law, which we liart so much
trouble in securing, are left out of this bill. It
is certainly not ray latention to interfere with
tbe crossing law in any shape, manner or form. I
shall esk the chairman Of the committee on ju
diciary to have the bill amended by inserting the
law a? it now stands on the statute books.
I intend to Interfere in no way with legisla
tion concerning railroad crossings, but r do be
lieve that condemnation of ways across United
States lands for water rights and wagon roads
should be permitted by our laws, and to that
extent 1 will support this bill.
KARL SUDDENLY TAKEN ILL
OAKLAND, Feb. 22. —'"If there is any
such omission in the bill, it is uninten
tional."
This, and this alone, was all that Guy
C. Earl would say tonight in regard
to the omission of the sections #of the
present act relative to grade crossings
in the bill as it has been introduced
in the Legislature.
Earl at first asked to bo excused
from plying any interview on the mat
ter. He sent word to the door that he
was confined to his. room, that his ill
ness was as serious as it was sudden,
and that it prevented him from conver
sation on the subject of any hiatus in
his bill. • Finally, in answer to a raes--
Fape conveyed to him, he made the
foregoing brief response." -\u25a0»

San Francisco Board Surprised at Lack
of Playgrounds There. ' JTv'a'
NEXT YORK. Feb. 22.— Mayor Schmitz
Is still at the Waldorf and his col
leagues are at the Imperial. The Mayor
will leave for San Francisco tomorrow.
The others In the party are as yet un
decided whether or not to spend one
day in Boston to inspect the schools
there.
Oliver and Altmann said tonight that
the entire party would probably leave
for Chicago tomorrow; The return trip
to San . Francisco will be made via St.
I^ouis and New Orleans. '
The party spent the entire day in
specting the school buildings here. The
lack of playgrounds for the school
children of New York struck them as
a singularly bad feature of the schools
here.* The pupils must play in the
streets, if at all. Well equipped gym
nasiums, however, are provided and
help to compensate for the lack of out
door recreation grounds. The San
Franciscans were well Impressed with
the school system here as a whole.

THE Si^ :^
chequer. The Call's gold prize contest
interested her from -the start, and when
she saw how easily other women won
big purses in the first period of the
contest, she decided that she would
go in to win _in the second period.
She is the sort of woman who never
does things, by halves. Whatever she
does she does well and with all her
soul and strength.
A CAPITAL IDEA
She figured that if she could earn
$500 — ;the prize she is aiming at —^by six
or seven weeks' work, she could afford
to hire- a girl . to do her housework
while she devoted all her time to the '
contest. That is what she is doing,
and never before was Sacramento so
thoroughly canvassed", for any news
paper as Mrs. Doherty is canvassing
it now for The Call in order to get
the votes which will enable her to win !
the grand capital prize for this period
of the contest. She tells the Sacra
mentans that It is as. much her business
to \u25a0win the capital prize in' The Call's
big contest, as it is the business of the
citizens "of Sacramento to win" their
fight against the removal of the capi
tal of the State to Berkeley or- some
other place. She has made friends with
the. State officials "and members of the
Legislature, many of whom are helping
her in her campaign to. win the capital
prize, while she is doing some* ef
fective lobbying among the lawmakers
to induce them to let the State capital
remain where it is. She is a charming
and convincing conversationalist/ and
is no doubt doing effective service for
her' home city. : * •
So interested hav^ many of her fel
low townsmen become in Mrs. Doher
ty's .effort to win the grand capital
prize :that her success will: be regarded
as a *gi)'Sa omen for the success of the
city In retaining the seat of govern
ment for all time to come, in sptte of
the ambitious projects of the Berkeley
residents and others. V: A , v
FORMIDABLE RiVAL
Miss Merani arid -Sacred' Heart Col
lege, the other aspirants for first hon
ors, in the contest, have a very formid
able, rival in Mrs. Doherty, indeed, and
to prevent her from winning the big
prize will take all the support either
of the other candidates can muster.
Miss Merani registered ia gain of
4400 yesterday and Sacred Heart; Col
lege failed to tally, presumably because
it was a holiday.. , . . /

act.\; J - .- , - ': ; . -'•
For some time there has been, a
feeling in Democratic circles that the
whole Schmitz administration had lost
its union labor following in the bet
ter element,; and that there might
be a chance for the party" to form an
alliance with the' dissatisfied advocates
of- Japanese exclusion. .'. <- . \u25a0 -
\u25a0\u25a0\u25a0\u25a0 In regard, to; this matter -Macarthur
rbfused to talk, declaring that he was
a poor politician and had always de
clined to ' have anything to do with
practical politics,. but he did not hesi
tate ; to express his -views on the ac
tion of Schmitz and the School Board
at the capital, i*
DISOBEYED PRESIDENT
The labor editor intimated that the
city .officials had done the very thing
that; prominent labor leaders had somo
time before . refused to do by declining
invitations from the President to ' at
tend the - conference in /Washington.
Macarthur would not give the names
of those who had thus disobeyed the
President's command, but by reference
tp the Japanese Exclusion League later
he left it to be presumed that the
leaders of that organization were the
recipients of the Unvltations.
For some time the wrath of the Jap
anese Exclusion League over the man
ner in • which' Schmitz misrepresented
conditions in California has been ap
parent. .Macarthur said: j
"We have been - working for years
to get the Asiatics excluded from this
country and now It seems 'that -'all our
work is being undone. By a recent
act Congress placed in the hands of
the President power to administer the
immigration laws as he saw fit, when
it must have. been apparent that sooner,
or later that power, would have to be*
taken away from him. There are indi
cations that the administration would
even favor a repeal of the Chinese ex
clusion law.
"I have no patience with representa
tives who will consent to go into secret
conference" with the President on a
matter which so vitally, affects the peo
ple as., this Japanese matter does.
Whatever is done should be' above
board. They say: 'Oh, it's all right,
boys; we know, but we can't tell, be
cause we have promised the President
not to.' \u25a0 • • \u25a0 \u25a0
SCHMITZ IS A FOOL
"I maintain that the people have a
right to a voice in these j matters. As
to Schmitz.and the other fellows, the
d -d fools didn't have sense enough
to stay at home when they* could have
sent .word to Roosevelt that he would
have -to deal, with the ; Legislature of
California in the matter. The law giv
ing boards of education power to seg
regate ; Mongolians., was enacted for a.
purpose— it was not placed on the stat
ute • books \u25a0to help fill them up. Of
course, this j school . question is a .minor
matter Compared with the" immigration
problem, but ' t;he .principle ' is the same.
I don't; know.what motive. Schmltz : had
in butting into, the affair, but his ac
tion has brought Insult upon the people
of San Francisco! '
\u25a0 "Some months ago I attended an Im
migration conference in New York City
and while there was invited with sev
eral others', to meet the President and
discuss the problems confronting the
country in regard to the admission of
foreigners. It was stipulated that bur
conference was to be under the rose,
as is the custom with Roosevelt, and
upon hearing of this I refused to have
anything to do with It. . • . ."\u2666
- "Not so ; long ago certain citizens of
San Francisco were invited to . attend
the conference which was recently held
at the capital, but they declined. Then
came the invitation to the members olj
the Board of Education, and they went,
andthe Mayor went with them."
SCORES "COLONIAL POLICY"
~ WASHINGTON, Feb. 22— The so
called , colonial r policy of the Govern
ment was; bitterly' denounced -on .-.the
floor.- of : the House i>y Representative
Clark of Florida : today in connection
with his resolution, calling upon**the
Secretary of War for" a statement of
the amount of money that tne Philip
pine Islands have cost the United
States. He , condemned' the war with
Spain as > unnecessary and pronounced
tne purchase of the Philippines a "seri
ous -blunder -and*" a .; most' grievous
wrong." ;^ In 'the course of his remarks
he said: \u25a0 •; . , ; ,
. When ire purch"a«ed the Islands and this alien
ra^e wlfh them tlie. deed was nothing more
or . less . than traffic in i human > beings, and It Is
no -greater wrong 'for individuals to traffic in
humanity than it is for nations to* make a bar
gain and sale of human beings. \u0084 v •
Within the \u25a0 last few day» I have heard gen
tlemen ;on this -floor • speak | of - our colonial pos
sessions. This smacks of empire.' It breathes of
imperialism. It suggests ' royalty. It does not In
