HIRAM JOHNSON WINS
N
Senator Is Expected to Have
Lead of 70,000 Over His
Opponent, Charles Moore.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 30. United
States Senator Hiram W. Johnson has
won renomination in one of the great
est fights of his political career.
With returns from something like
half of the state in today, he was lead
ing Charles C. Moore by about 25,000,
and his managers claimed that as the
complete returns came in this lead
would grow to 70,000.
"California remains progressive,"
the senior senator Jubilantly declared
today as returns continued to pile up
his lead.
Moore won Southern California by
taking the two most populous coun
ties, Los Angeles and San Diego.
Johnson, however, showed strength in
other southern counties, with the re
sult, his managers claimed today, that
Moore would come north to the Teha
chappi mountains, the dividing point
between Northern and Southern Cali
fornia, with but 5000 lead.
LIVES OF UNREMITTING TOIL
Chinese Coolies Never Know Respite
From Labor of Pushing Barrows,
for Bare Existence.
Laborers in America who think they
have a hard life should see these
Chinese coolies.- Imagine wheeling a
barrow with a- four or five hundred
pound load for hundreds of miles over
roads difficult to travel even on horse
back !
Usually there are two men to a bar
row. The one at the handles, by
means of a strap over his shoulders,
takes much of the weight from his
arms, leaving his" hands more or less
free to guide and balance the load:
the one in front drags It forward with
a ten-foot rope.
Panting and straining, with the
sweat streaming from their half-naked
bodies; pulling through foot-deep yel
low dust, lifting over rocks and drag
ging up hills; at night gulping a bowl
of soup or macaroni and, half dead
with fatigue, falling asleep on the
ground in the inn courtyard ammg
the pigs, chickens and mules so they
live, day after day, year in and year
out, , with nothing else to look . for
ward to. - . .
All this for fifty or sixty coppers a
day, or about eighteen cents in Ameri
can money. Is it any wonder they
seek oblivion in opium? Roy Chapman

New Tertiary Crocodile.
- TJreeedingly valuable additions have
beta made recently to the already ex
tensive natural history collections ot
the La Plata museum in Buenos Aires,
and a vast amount of new information
has been gathered by an expedition
that has Just returned from a three
months' geological survey and paleon
tological study of northern Patagonia
that little-known region of Argen
tina that already has shown itself to
be one of the world's richest store
houses of paleontological relics. In
cluded among the specimens broujrht
back by the expedition Is the fossil of
a prehistoric monster of the crocodile
family which appears to be a species
hitherto unknown.
This fossil is the almost coiuple'e
skeleton of a reptile that in lif6
measured more than 40 feet from head
to tail. The fossil was found near the
city of Uio Negro between the strata
of red sandstone of the Crustaceous
age, which crop out all over the upper
Rio Negro valley and along the Neu
quen and Llmay rivers.
Two Distinct Tribes in Damara Land.
Two distinct tribes inhabit Damara
land, in the central portion of what
was formerly German Southwest Afri
cathe Rill Damara and the Cattle
Damara. Although they share the
same name, they are of different origin
and speak different languages.
The Hill Damara are negroes with
much Hottentot blood in their veins,
while the Cattle Damara, who live
on the plains and raise cattle, are ti
Bantu-Negro people.
Damara Is a Hottentot word mean
ing "Two Dama .Women." The Damara
call themselves Ovaherero, "the Merry
People."

PETITIONS BONG
CIRCULATED FOR
INCREASED FORCE
Business Men Want 4 Paid
Firemen to Be Maintained
In Department;
' Contemplating
Council Is
Reduction.
CITY RECORDER SAYS
MORE FUNDS NEEDED
Change Will Work Hardship
On Fire Boys; Assistant
Chief Says Work Confining
A petition was circulated for signa
tures in Oregon City yesterday ask
ing the city council not to reduce the
personnel of the fire department as
is understood the council has been
contemplating doing. The depart
ment for the past few months has con
sisted of a chief and three men on
regular duty, in addition to the call
men. It is the intention of the coun
cil to reduce the department to the
chief and two men on regular duty,
and the call men.
The petition sets forth that the de
partment has proven its value in safe
guarding the lives and property of
locaL citizens, and that the present ar
rangement of four paid firemen is
conducive to a higher morale and ef
ficiency in the department, and that
the number should not be reduced.
Relative to the contemplated reduc
tion of the paid force in the depart
ment, City Recorder C- W. Kelly stat
ed that the regular force consists only
of a chief and two firemen, and mac.
the extra man, George Snook, was
put on only for the vacation period,
beginning June 1. Kelly added fur
ther that the city is without funds
with which to pay for an additional
paid fireman should he be retained. If
the city desires to maintain a force of
four paid firemen, the recorder stat
ed, it would be necessary to obtain
additional funds. Acording to the bud
get for the year, only $860 is allot
ted for gas, incidentals, and for the
services of call men. During the
present year the call men expenses
have run from $20 a month to as high
as $267 in one month, according to
records at the City Recorder's office.
The force at the department is anx
ious, however, to have the present per
sonnel maintained.' According to As
sistant Fire Chief Frizon, a reduction
in the number of paid firemen works
a hardship on the men. It necessi
tates putting in full time at the sta
tion, with no evenings free, and with
only time enough off to get theiil
meals. . He stated that under the pres
ent arrangement the men are able to
get one evening a week for recreation.
In the Portland stations, according to
Frizon, the firemen are given three
evenings aweek off. "If the force is
reduced," he stated, it will be as
confining for the. rest of the men as
a penitentiary."
