THINKS FIRE RATES
SHOULD BE LOWER
Mayor Says Salt Water System
Is Practically Ready
for Use
OAKLAND, March 30. — The new salt
water auxiliary fire system will," be -in
actual commission by April :1, .an
nounced Mayor :M6tt., this morning' at
the boardlof. public works -session. He
explained- that the apparatus could be
used In a case of emergency now, and de
clared'that in a few: days' the business
district will be" well protected with" the
salt water streams available in addition
to the . regular engine equipment. .
•This ; statement was \u25a0 part of \ the dis
cussion of a proposed reduction "of the
fire insurance '.. rates. • Wilber -. Walker,*
secretary of the - merchants' - exchange,
was before the commission forinfor-'
mation \ concerning: the : new apparatus.
He -.informed , the that
the exchange wishes, to obtain "definite
action from ; the -fire insurance under
writers *in the matter of "lower -rates,
which 'it had been thought would be
readily given when the ' auxiliary . sys
tem* was finished. • • •!: ' 1\
The mayor took the position that the
city had -done its share toward such a
reduction In Improving the fire depart
ment.' "The; administration had been
compelled/ he added;; to re ject the plan
to use the, salt watery for; street sprink;
ling because the underwriters objected.
"The Insurance ratesin Oakland were
raised 25 per. cent after ; the San Fran
cisco fire," said;, the mayor. "That is
most unfair/ This city has built more
fire : houses, , bought more 'engines and
altogether enlarged the department,
and. now we havei the salt .water sys
tem comple'tel We should be granted
lower rates! <We will stand behind the
merchants In demanding them.*' . ,
MERCHANTS TO URGE
PROTECTIVE ORDINANCE
Want Moving Van Operations
Kept by the Police
•OAKLAND, March 30.— The mer
chants* exchange directors have begun
a campaign- against "deadbeats." One
of the moves will be to urge the city
council to enact an ordinance whicK will
compel moving van companies and ex
pressmen to file a weekly statement
with .the police department of the
names of all persons and addresses
from and to which furniture or other
personal effects are moved. This is to
be a public record by ! which merchants
will be helped ; to ; trace fly by night
debtors.
A provision for advance payment of
moving expense is also to be Incorpo
rated. The directors are following the
lines of and ordinance recently passed
in Detroit, which' reads:
Any public moTing van driyer shall be.
entitled to receive the compensation pro- j
Tided \u25a0 in this ordinance Immediately upon
\u25a0 loading the effects to be transported. Each
driver shall keep a record of the place from
and to which he moTPs the household fiirnl
tur« of ' any . perron and the . names of all
' persons Interested In the effects, rio pliall .
on' Monday of each week file with the police
commissioner a statement containing every
such transaction of the previous week. The
blanks shall be furnished free upon applica
tion to the city clerk.
COUNTY NOW ELIGIBLE
AS THIRD DISTRICT
Title to Separate Congressional
Representation Assured
OAKLAND, March 30. — Supervisor
James M.' Burke is swearing in the dep
uties-whose appointment in' taking the
census of t this district has been ap
provedby the Washington authorities,
and they will/enter upon the discharge
of their duties April 15.
Alameda is at present joined with
two .other counties in forming the third
congressional district. Its population
how entitles It to stand alone as a con
gressional "district. Recognition as
such' depends entlrely.'upon this census
and Supervisor Burke is using the fact
as -an argument why every one should
take special interest in the census. • •
A circular letter is being sent to all
clubs,, commercial bodies and city and
county departments, asking general co
operation and the request has met with
universal assurance of assistance. The
letter sets. forth plainly the importance
of * the ; census to the community, and a
copy of It is being inclosed in the bills
and statements of all merchants to
their customers. \u25a0 .

CONVICTED "FENCE"
MUST GO TO JAIL
Superior Jadge Brown Sustains
Heavy Sentence Imposed
by Police Magistrate
OAKLA>TD. March SO.— Police Judge
Smith was informed this morning that
Superior Judge Brown had sustained
his judgment in the case of Abe Sha
piro, a second hand dealer whom Smith
sentenced to pay a fine of $250 and go
to jail for 60 days for buying' stolen
goods from minors. Shapiro was re
leased on $1,000 ball pending his ap
peal. He probably will be sent to the
city jail to begin his sentence tomor
row morning.
The heavy penalty was meted out to
Shapiro after testimony had been ad
duced to show that ..he acted as a
"fence" for juvenile thieves on sev
eral occasions. Both he and his broth
er, Ben Shapiro, had been arrested for
similar offenses before. Abe Shapiro
was finally found guilty, and Judge
Smith took the defendant's reputation
into consideration in imposing sen- -
tence.
The police allege that several boys
barely in their teens have been in
duced to steal brass and iron castings
and other articles to sell to Shapiro.
and have been arrested for their acts.
GOVERNOR PARDONS
CIVIL WAR VETERAN
Releases Prisoner From City
0[ V "Jail to Save Health
OAKLAND. March 30.— Albert 11.
Southwick, an aged civil war veteran,
was released from the city Jail today.
Governor Gillett having pardoned him
yesterday. He will go to the Old Sol
diers* home at Sawtelle.
In a letter apprising Southwick of
the pardon, the governor says:
"I have decided to pardon you. upon
the advice of the chief of police and
the district attorney, not because 1
think you are deserving of a pardon
for the offense you committed, but be
cause it* seems that confinement there
in the jail to any further extent would
probably result in injury, to your
health." '.^
How to Make Better Cough
Syrup Than You Can Buy
A full pint of ,. cough syrup —
enough to last a family a lons
time — can be made by the recipe
given below in five minutes, lor
only 54 cents. Simple as it is.
there, is nothing better at any
price. It usually stops a Ueep
seated ' couch in twenty-four
hours, and is a splendid house-
hold remedy for whoopin? couj?h.
colds, hoarseness, bronchitis, etc.
Take a pint of granulated
sugar, add \^ pint warm water
and stir about 2 minutes. Put
2% oz. Pinex in a pint bottle and
till up with syrup. .Take a tea-
spoonful every one. two or three
hours. It keeps perfectly and
the taste is pleasing. .
The chemical elements of pine,
which are very healing to mem-
branes, are obtained in high pro-
portion in Pinex. the most valu-
able concentrated compound of
Norway White Pine Extract.
None of the weaker pine prepa-
rations will work with this
recipe. Your druggist has Pinex,
or can easily get it for you.
Strained honey can bo used in-
stead of the syrup and makes a
very fine honey and pine tar
cough syrup.
