10 SATURDAY EVENING, JANUARY 24, 1C03 TISl v'v Charles Sptear WiH Spreckels Gets a Promise John Britton arid the RegencyNot Even a Suspected Case of Plague in San Francisco. By The Knave OAKLAND TRIBUNE. k-k at home. Stone, who formerly was used to handle the transport business under Colonel Long. Then there ex- sort of declaration of war on the Governor.

It Is believed the summoning of Dr. Herbert Moffitt by Par vacancy on the Deaf and Dumb and Blind Board for you Alameda chaps to scrap oVer, and as scrappers you are supposed to be very near the limit. Jl iJl 1 .1 It is 'the Regency of Father Peter Yorke which, more than anything tying up those Gage appointments. Pardee would like to have the Senate must be ready for every vacancy: When It comes to PilotOmmission-r the applicants are "like the sands the sea without number." Captain Freeman, the pilot who lives In your city, is one of the foremost applicants. Berf Morrow, son of Circuit Judgf-Morrow, would like to be appointed' Ex-Supervisor Henry Bingham haa sent in a petition, and Captains Billy Leale, Pratt, Ott, Alexander, Matteson I SACRAMENTO.

Jan. 24 The poll- ticlans are beginning to ask: "Is this going to be an Alameda county administration Governor- Gage went to' Los Angeles for a large part of his official family, and Governor Pardee did not go outside his county for the men who have the most intimate relations with him In his office. It Is noticed, also, that Alameda county men are very much to the fore whenever one of the Jobs In the Governor gift is mentioned. To begin with, Charlie Spear Is to have Paris Kfilburn'e place In the Board of Harbor Commissioners, though a lot of business pilgrims from San Francisco said they hoped the Governor would appoint some San Francisco business man to the place. KUburn has thought until recently that with his usual luck he would' be ble to hold on to.

his Job, bat now it Is told that a great light has beaten upon him -and he has about given up his cause as hopeless. So Spear is to be the first of the Alameda county men to come In for a prize package In the way of appointments. Alameda county Is forward In the scramble for Martin Aguirre's place as Warden of San Quentin State. Prison. What with Ex-Chief McCloud, Ex-Sheriff Rogers and aptaln Peterson all clamoring for the appointment, Alameda may be said to be heard from.

rifice the 'State Board of Health, officials but in that case-' the are facing a Very serious problem. That Board of Health has saved Call fornia from being quarantined on account of the flo-called plague. Bug-gelon General Wyman" and the Federal quarantine authorities have demanded; from Pardee and Mayor Schmitz the absolute control of quarantine affairs at San Francisco, the appoint ment of the men and the spending of the money, which money the State is to furnish. I Senator Knowland has presented a bH for the Governor appropriating another $100,000 to be spent in cleaning up Chinatown and In suppressing the so-called plague. But If the present State Board of Health 'Is ignored In the spending of that money, or if it is deposed and everything turned over to tie Federal authorities, there will be an Injunction at once to prevent any but State officers spending State money.

That will make everything public and there is no telling how much trouble might ensue. Herrin, Schmitz and the editors talked very plainly to tie Governor when they came up to dllscuss the plague subject this week, Bind Schmitz very emphatically said he 'twould 'not surrender the authority of the City Board of Health to the Fed eral authorities under any circumstances. i So that Health, Board matter is a risky one to touch, and already the has fired a broadside against the Knowland bill appropriating the $100,000. That looks like a tentative i Fred Esola of San Francisco, formerly Lieutenant oT Police and Andy Law rence's candidate for Chief, wants that place, and he has some very powerful backing from among the men who ST.

Colonel Will Johnson of Stockton has his eye on those epaulettes and that salary. So has Major Sime of San Francisco. Colonel Schreiber and Editor yashburne of the Times are the Los Angeles candidates. There are others but their names are not often heard. When Colonel Lew Bromwell appeared the scene people said.

"There comes Alameda county man for the place last." But Bromwell declares he told Governor he didn't want anything wouldn't have anything. When the appointment of a Regent was discussed at first the names of Senator Lukens and John A. Britton were, generally mentioned as likely to offered the honor. But Lukens has said that Pardee would not tender him place because of the Governor's frequently expressed sentiment that there already are too many lawyers on Board. The Governor has declared time and again that he wants more business men to leaven the lump of professionalism which does what Benjamin Ide Wheeler wants It to do.

So was. taken for granted that there would be a tender of the. honor to Britton. But Britton has said very firmly that he doesn't want the place and would refuse it if it were tendered him. As a consequence, some good business man of Alameda', 6ounty might get that Donor; it -he woum go right after it -a TJl C.

Uke to be Warden. So would ExT Sheriff Hamlll'of Los Angeles, also recently defeated. What with HamlH. Besse and Rogers all recently defeated and all aspirants it would seem that a-recent defeat Is considered quite a necessary recommendation for a candi date. John Burr, who once wasSher- Iff of Los Angeles, is another of the Southern California applicants.

1 i But Don Martin Aguierre thlnka he can hold his place against all comers, and he really has something to go on. In some of the "paisano" districts in Los Angeles county, where Aguirre made a epeciaV fight for Pardee, the Gover nor ran far ahead of his ticket. It has been said that Aguirre has deserted Gage and gone over to Sam Leake and the enemy. This Aguirre denies, and insists he is true to his brother-in-law no matter what men say. That fact, however, would be no particular recommendation with Pardee, who is far from tender jl the feelings of the Gage appointees.

There is no Port Warden to be appointed in the natural order of things for a year to come, but S. N. Wyckoff of Berkeley, an insurance man, is a candidate for one of the. places. He probably is working on the theory that Spear will be made Harbor Commissioner in March and that, as Spear now is a Port Warden, a vacancy will be created, and an Alameda county man Parker seems to have fallen through and now Britt is shying in the direction of Young Corbett.

LOHMAN PLANS FOR THE SEASON OAKLAND WILL HAVE A WINNING BALL TEAM IF THE SIGNS COUNT. Pete Lohman, manager of the Oak land baseball team, has some great players coming from the East One a these is an outfielder who is a midget in elze but bats around the .300 mark. Pete has also signed a shortstop and second baseman, but their names are withheld for the present Lohman may commence the season with three left-handed pitchers and one right Cooper and Graham both -throw the ball from the off side, a Na tlonal Leaguer that Is coming also plays trail with his left nana, ana ur. Mosklman makes up the fourth. The Spaulding League ball will be adopted by the Pacific Coast League for the coming season, as suitable ax rangements could not be made with the Griffith people.

The Portland Club will come to San Jose in the spring to practice for the opening of the season. It is claimed that seven men in the team batted over 300 last year. Parke Wilson of Seattle has secured the services of Fred Schock to assist in the twirling. He captured the pitcher by outbidding the manager of the rival Seattle team.

There are those who say that such a Board would be a great danger to the' State, as is no power on earth could prevent them from publishing a disease bu bonic plague if theys really diagnosed it as such. 't tt Meantime it is comfortingVo know that, whatever this Chinatown complaint which swells the glands and looks so much like the real plague, there has not been even a suspected case since December .6 a matter of forty-eight days. As fifteen days is the Umit of plague infection, there certain- ly is no wild cause for alarm over the situation. In fact, had there not been so much infernal secrecy at the de- mahd of the San Francisco business men there would have been no scare at all. It has been nearly three years since the first suspected case was reported.

In that time there have been ninety- three suspected cases altcygether. So, whatever, the disease, it is only a little more fatal than mumps, also a glandular swelling, and no case has been dl- rectly traceable to any other case. Yet the Connecticut Board of Health officially published that there had been 1.000 deaths from plague in California-Thai's what this fool secrecy dees toward making a mountain out cf a mcle hill.

Mathews will lose his salary as secretary of the last named Board. Senator Leavitt has done quite a lot of work in trying to program the Senate to carry out these wishes of the Governor. But the Senate will not program. It surely wil confirm Father Yorke as Regent if the matter of confirmation ever comes up, and It In all probability will confirm Mackenzie as Harbor Commissioner. So the Governor must withdraw those Gage appointments if he wants to work his will in getting rid of the obnoxious ones.

It has been suggested that he might get the Senate to let all the Gage appointments hang fire until after the adjournment, when all of them will ex pire under the law. But that wouldn't help Pardee, as he then would 'have to piake new appointments and thus in cur the enmity of the men he did hot reappoint. So, in the language of the politicans, the Governor is "up against it" unless the Senate should unexpect edly agree to take the burden oft his shoulders. Probably the.

There has been a' new athletic club or gantzed in this city which is looking for a permit to pull off fights. There is little chance of the club securing one, however, for the reason that there are three clubs v-in this city that are already licensed and the officials think that t0 add another club to the list would be overdoing the mater. The fighting game Is Tiept pretty busy between the three clubs already in the 'ring and it is not' thought that the ap-i plication the new club for a permit will be Countenanced: Next Monday It will be known whether or not Andrew Tekel, the English cham plon bantam-weight, will fight Frankie Neil across the bay.

Yesttday Tokell wired that he would give 1 his decision on that day.
