N ' - WE need not be surprised when we find the Post-Globe, the kept organ of the San Francisco grafters, flinging dirt at Hiram Johnson. Mr. Bell finds himself in strange com " pany, and the alliance will neither help him nor do him any credit. In its direct bearing the attack on Johnson is merely puerile and ridiculous. . Its indirect bearing puts Bell in affiliation or alliance, with the crooked gang which began by bribing the city government and later purchased immunity by debauching the courts and breaking down the adminis iration of justice in San Francisco. As to the quality of the attack judge from these extracts: You can't teach a buzzard good table manners nor instill a liking for cleanliness into the brain of a sewer rat. To these axioms it might be added that you can not make Hiram Johnson keep his hands out of the mud nor convince him that churning up the filth is not good logic. * *, * Though Theodore Bell is a democrat and Johnson is flying the colors of the republican party, there is the same difference between the two as exist.- between a fountain and a sewer. * . * * : Johnson can not see the result of such a campaign, but his advisers can. It is the only sort of campaign that Johnson knows how to wage. He is not natural unless his hands are dripping with the muck. He is ill at ease and at sea when he stands any distance from the mud puddle. This is about the way a drunken sailor might talk if somebody had trod on his to&s. Taken by itself it means nothing in particular and would only raise a contemptuous laugh. But considered in the light of its inspiration and its source it tells a % story that can not fail to help Johnson and is not at all to the credit of Theodore Bell. Indeed, most people will regret to see Bell identified with such a cause. . . As the campaign progresses it" becomes evident that as far as this element is permitted to shape the issues before the people it will be made to tunr on the conduct of the graft prosecution' in San Francisco. It is an attack inspired by malignity, whose spirit may be assayed by the. temper of the extracts we have printed above. It might be better for all concerned, including the people of California, if that conflict were forgotten, but Hiram Johnson least of all men has reason to fear the issue. His record is clear, unimpeachable and on the side of right. Not long ago the other fide was pleading for what it called "civic pride/ by which it! meant immunity for bribe givers. It secured that immunity by corrupting the fountain of justice and by debauching the electorate with money. Now it seeks to make itself once more the issue by flinging mud at one of the men who labored to bring it to justice. It is perhaps just as well that the issue should be made as between honesty and graft. . Mr. Johnson need not fear the. result, and in fact this policy of the opposition will bring him thousands of votes. The people of California are sound on this issue, and they quite fully understand the malignant spirit that inspires the attack. If further evidence were needed it will be found in the nature, quality and source of the abuse. . Mr. Bell can not be congratulated on the quality or the temper of his allies. Does he really believe that the people of this common wealth are friendly to graft and bribery? . Mr. Bell's Unfortunate Alliance MR. CALHOUX'S address to the American street railway asso ciation hi Atlantic City is only important as a. special plea for the practice of bribery. Of course, MrvGalhoiin-does not " use that odious word, and would deny he had ever been guilty of anything of the sort. He speaks of the practice in the polite disguise of campaign contributions, and he puts all the . blame on the boss. Of course, the boss has no iriends anywnere in a public way, and Mr. Calhoun is perfectly safe in denouncing him. His shoulders are broad and he "is" paid to be abused. But who makes the boss ?.. ,- V : Mr. Calhoun Does Not Explain It used to be a tradition of American politics that everything wicked began and -ended with the boss, but of recent years people have had their eyes opened.on this matter and have come to realize that the boss was merely the agent of predatory . wealth and that the source of his power was those campaign, contributions, of which Mr. Calhoun speaks so feelingly. Further. Mr. Calhoun discourses glibly of "cinch" bills and the methods by which corporations are "held vp v — always by the boss. It is a pity that Mr. Calhoun did not depart from, his practice of exploiting empty generaltics and give the public some specific* instances of the "cinch" bills and the "holdups" that have come in his nay. For example, was the overhead trolley permit for San Fran cisco either a "cinch" bill or a "holdup"? If he was held up in this instance he might have had the permit on reasonable terms with the full consent of the whole people had he explained in a dozen words what the boss was trying to do to him. Mr. Calhoun's explanation leaves-much to be explained, -and his. careful reticences may serve to indicate some of the reasons why he neglected to on the witness stand to give his version of, the "holdup." \u0084' •Incidentally one observes with" some amusement that' Mr. Cal houn takes a slap at Roosevelt. This might be useful for purposed of identification, but is not otherwise important. IT is the judgment of The Call that constitutional amendment No. 1. generally described as the tax segregation amendment, RoT,™iifl Ha.. ratified -b} 1 ;; the -voters, of : the state at the^ coming • election. This amendment is by all odds the most important .matter- 'of 'referendum now before the people. Its general purpose *is to segregate the. sources of f state-' taixatioii, from zjL. \ those available for county/ . and municipal revenues., n.uic amendment-is ratified the revenue of the 'state will accrue from taxation of the insurance companies, banks /aiidlpubl'ic service corporations, including steam: railroads' while; all oiher/prop ertV'Avill be taxed for city and county- purposes. \u25a0 The public service corporations will be taxed at , the ; rate of: a fixed percentage of gross (^nin^s,;being4percentfor'all-railwa^/steam\prxlectricY:sleepin Jfax Amend ment Should Be.

THE PORTUGUESE REVOLUTION car and other private car lines, 3 per cent; express companies, 2 per cent; telegraph and telephone companies, 3J3 J / 2 per cent ; gas^ or electric companies, 4 per cent; insurance companies, \y 2 per cent of the gross premiums for the year; banks. 1 per. cent; on, the shares and on the moneyed capital, reserve, surplus and: undivided profits. Building and loan associations are not included: These fixed per centages shall remain in force until changed by the legislature by a two-thirds vote. - The chief purpose and motive that inspired these proposals to revolutionize the tax systenr'of the state were that the new plan is practically automatic in operation and removes altogether the cause of friction and quarrels that have arisen over county assessments and the equalization of the same by the. state board. Year after year county assessors are summoned to appear before the board to justify their assessments, which, being made on a low scale of valuation, are unjust, to other counties assessed on a. higher;scale. That is to say, certain counties 'are enabled to shift to others an important part of their just share of state taxation, and- when the state board proceeds to equalize the assessment rolls this is a perpetually recurring cause of angry quarrels. Moreover, the board at best can only arrive at a rough .approximation of equalized values as between counties. . • ; All thisvwill be changed by : the new • system;; When it goes into effect the scale of values used by the assessor of one county will make no difference to other counties and .will concern -only, his own constituents. It may be made high "or low to suit the' revenue needs of the county without affecting directly or indirectly, the' rev enue to be raised for state purposes. • • Another important feature ! of the amendment is that, if ratified, it will practicalh^ take the state board- of equalization out of politics. Its functions will be ministerial -and." not. discretionary, it will have no power -to' assess railroads or other corporations at a /high or a low rate and will simply be concerned to calculate the' fixed per centages, on gross earnings or bank: capital as stated above. - In view of the history of .the.state this change in- the. functions of the state. board should be regarded; as an important gain. !> : As for the/ effect on: local revenues; under the i operation of the amendment, it is calculated that /the counties will ; be better off fin the way of taxation than, they are at present. \u2666 — ;—; — .. — -_ . | Antique Aviation Pictures A Nantes journal, the Phare de la Loire, has a curious .document in its hall.

DEAR NIECE: What's all this I hear from your .mother, about your working evenings and lying awake at nights worrying about some important j document? My dear Joan, you are right about the bread of inde pendence being sweet eating, but let me tell you one thing. There's one mighty good way to make.it sour on your stomach, and that is, buttering it with the butter of over work and nervous exhaustion. Idon't believe your father will, think that a few dol lars a week repays him for having his jolly, sweet tem pered daughter transformed into a nervous, irritable creature who flies off the handle over nothing and has hysterics every time her big brother, teases her a little. \u2666 Of course, you are nothine like 'that yet, but that's 1 the £ r oal you seem to be aiming for. Xow, niece, no doubt you've read a good deal in the newspapers, and so, forth, about the clerk who doesn't see Miss Opportunity when she beckons ta\ him, because he is too all fired busy watching the clock. Of course, there's plenty of truth in that kind of dope. But as usual, there's another side to that question. There's the man who's worked evenlng3 and lain awake nights worrying over his business so much that he's too dead sleepy to open his eyes wide enough to see the lady of the beckoning finger even when she shakes it right under his very nose. To keep yourself bright, and alert, and efficient, is your duty, both to yourself and your employer. . And that doesn't mean that you should always refuse to work. overtime either. That would be absurd. There are exigencies in every business that demand that occasionally, # and the girl who has her hatpins all poised reads* to ram them Into the correct holes at the first stroke of five, and who acts like an abused wife when her employer asks her to stop a few minutes and, take an -important letter, loses as many jobs as she deserves to. But being . asked to work overtime or in the evenings as a regular thing Is something that no girl should stand. When-. that happens it means that your employer is. trying to make you do the work of two girls. And you can't do that even though/ you think you'd like to, except by drawing on the future. That means that some day you will have to pay up on that overdrawn account by not being able to do the work of one. And that doesn't pay. Now for the lying awake and worrying. That's got to stop ; right here, niece; believe me, if you spend your first year just learning to Jeaye your work at the office when you come away at night, and learn nothing else, you will have done well. And doing that isn't lack of devotion to your employer and your busi ness, either. It's the height of devotion. Which do you think a businessman would rather have come to work in the morning for him— a fagged-out, nervous girl who! was so devoted to- his interest that she spoiled her evening's relaxation and her night's rest worry ing over a fancied mistake, that she couldn't correct until morning anyhow^ ora bright, efficient young person who had put her business out of her head the. minute she left the office, and rested and relaxed for all. she was worth, and came back to her desk with a clear, steady brain, ready to correct any past mistakes and to minimize mistakes in the future? V:t? Well then, niece, ;why don't you prove your common sense by being the right kind and justifying the skyhigh good opinion of • ; Your fussy but devoted to your interests Old Aunt, t-J li.ti r\ '""'. - ANSWERS TO QUERIES \u25a0 FLAGS — R.
