Only those pioneers of optics who. have kept their ideals of service apace of the times have been able to weather the storms of latter-day competition. From a small beginning thirty-two years ago we have developed to where we dis: pense the largest volume of optical service on the Pacific One small store has grown to seven modern institutions equipped with the best that optical science can devise.

Surely this tremendous expansion is a manifestation of public appreciation of the part we've played as pioneers of optical service. EYEGLASSES SPECTACLES. A SACRAMENTO SAN PRANCISCO 190 Geary SL-164 Powell St SUPPORT JOHNSON, LABOR HEAD ASKS Edgar S. Hurley, president of the Central Labor Council, today issued a statement calling on labor to port Hiram The statement. in part follows: By EDGAR S.

HURLEY, President of Central Labor Connell. Hiram W. Johnson is essentially a western man. He has grown up in that environment of western chivalry and freedom and has carried it to the Senate with him. There he found so many pitfalls jeopardizing that American spirit of freedom and independence that it was a problem which should be tackled first, and by his vigorous and continuous attack upon the Europeanize America plan he has become the greatest living exponent of liberty, justice and That alone should be sufficient grounds for a unanimous vote for Johnson in California, but that apparently being not sufficient there are many more.

A few well-meaning, but misguided citizens, have from the public rostrum sought to discredit the good work of Hiram W. Johnson while he was governor of California by saying that our progressive and humane legislation was not due to him but was brought about through the initiative and referendum. We had no initiative and referendum speak of until Johnson became governor, and while ft is that a large of the good legislation passed during his time was passed on by the referendum, it was necessary for it to. be, for most all of it was in the form of constitutional law and the legislature has no power to pass constitutional law, they can only propose it and the people are the ones who shall say what goes into the constitu- tion. LEGISLATION IS CITED Notably were employers' liability act (more commonly known as the workmen's compensation), the public utilities act (which gave the railroad commission the broad power which it has), the minimum wage (which has done world's of good for the women and children of our state) and the women's suffrage act points in question.

of these acts, were passed upon. by the people, but they were proposed to the legislature by Governor Johnson in keeping with his pre-election promises. I have Johnson to go back on a promise. I saw men representing over five hundred million dollars try to coerce him into refusing to sign the women's eight -hour law. Johnson wrote into the organic law of this state more good law in the same length of time than was ever written in the history of the world before, and the best part of it constitutional, placed in the constitution '80 that future legislators couldn't change it without the will of the people.

Who are his opponents? And why? will all others out except Hoover. Without questioning his integrity, he is a mining engineer and without experience, in executive governmental affairs, JOHNSON LABOR'S FRIEND His sponsors say that Hoover egtablished eight hours in the mines throughout the world. He has operated in South Africa, India, China, and Siberia. When in the name of Heaven did the Kaffir in South Africa start working eight labor believes in fairness, justice and freedom. So does Johnson.

He not only believes in it but he is outspoken for it. Quite different with his opponents. True, Johnson has not voted and acted in each instance as every working man would have him do. Neither could ahy other living person act so as to please all, but weigh his work during his public life and you will find that his good work outweighs his errors many times over. hear a deep stentorian voice coming from a mausoleum south of the Tenachapi growling and grimac-.

ing at every Johnson supporter as he always did, fearful lest the people of the U. S. A. enjoy some of the good things which we in California enjoy. That arch enemy of labor and progress, Harrison Gray Otis, were he alive, would be howling louder than a pack of wolves for Hoover and against Johnson, but he is gone, so don't let his images persuade you into swapping horses in the middle of the stream.

True, Johnson is not a saint, but he stands head and shoulders above all his opponents so far as accomplishments for labor is concerned. A vote for iS Johnson means an extension of California's labor laws throughout the U.S. A. Petition Is Filed in Brown Estate Petition for letters of administration in the estate of Mrs. Matilda Brown were filed this afternoon by Judge Everett J.

Brown. The petition says that in 1910 Mrs. Borwn deeded her one-third interest in the holdings known' as the Delger property, between Thirteenth and Fourteenth street, and to the east of Broadway, to her five children, and that she retained a life interest. The property, in all, is said to be worth leaving the amount deeded at $266.333. The five heirs are: Miss Matilda Brown, Miss Annie F.

Brown, David E. Brown, Judge Everett J. Brown and Mrs. Elsie J. Hardin.

McCarthy, declares ninety-seven per cent of the labor vote of California will be cast for Johnson. John I. Nolan, for many years legislative agent for the San Francisco -Labor Council at Sacramento, has issued a statement to union men in California in which he views the been responsible and says: measures which Johnson has "With the Republican National convention less than a month off, Senator Hiram W. Johnson da leading the entire field with 122 delegates pledged to his support. General Lepnard Wood is running second with 101, delegates.

"To date, Herbert Hoover has not one Republican delegate pledged for his candidacy. The standing of the various candidates follows: "Johnson, 122; Wood, 101; Lowden, 65; Harding, 48: Hoover, 0. "The snowing under of McCall in Massachusetts, who ran pledged to Hoover, and for whom an intensive speaking and advertising campaign was made, is generally recognized as definitely barring Hoover from even one delegate to the Republican National Convention."

Lower Alimony Plea Refused by Court Holding that a written contract between divorced couples was beyond the jurisdiction of the courts, Judge Dudley Kinsell has refused C.

to H. Carson, 178 Tenth street, agreed modify a decree in which Captain to pay his divorced wife, Mrs. Nellie F. Carson, of Los Angeles, $75 a month alimony. Captain Carson asked the court to have the alimony reduced to $25 a month on the ground that his wife had inherited a $3000 estate and that the increased cost of living made it a hardship for him to pay that amount.

As Captain Carson had agreed to pay that sum in an agreement which also included a property settlement, Judge Kinsell ruled the Court did not have the power to change the terms of the document.
