REPAIRING PAVEMENTS. While our stone block streets are in better condition than they have been for a long time, they are still far from being satisfactory to the public. On many blocks, patching is of little use and the entire surface should be relaid. If this were done on a number of our basalt paved blocks, they could be put in good condition at small cost and the money required to repave them could be used in removing cobbles from our business streets. The Board of Directors has taken up the matter of having the stone block and bituminized streets more thoroughly and expeditiously repaired, and when the budget is prepared for the next fiscal year will endeavor to have ample provision made for this very necessary improvemcnt. mzw MEMBERS.

Excerpt from Merchants' Association Review, Vol. 8: September, 1903 August, 1904 Objection has been made to the character of the Board of Public Works, that it does not if; spire confidence. I do not care who are in the Board of Public Works. The charter provides a machinery by which the injury they may possibly no, if they are wilfully corrupt or dishonest, is reduced to a minimum. An attempt was made during the year to amend the charter, whereby two members of the Board of Public Works could award contracts or extend time to contractors, which is an old offense, and it was voted down by the people. It was the only amendment that was voted down; it was very wise discrimination on the part of the people.

Excerpt from Merchants' Association Review, 1909, Vol. 14 The Merchants' Association will send per sonal letters to every member asking him to give his financial support to the Portola Festival. While the Association has taken no part in the preparations for the Festival, it is none the less interested in its success. Every property owner and business man in the community owes it to himself and to his city to contribute to this great enter prise. If he is not in a position to give a great deal he should give what he can. There seem to be a few thousand San Franciscans that are not yet awake to the size and possibilities of the Portola Festival. If present plans can be carried out properly, the streets of San Francisco will swarm with visitors for a week, over six millions of new money will be thrown into local circulation, and the City will receive the greatest ad it has ever enjoyed with the single exception of the great fire. This threatens to be the biggest thing in which San Francisco ever indulged, and if San Franciscans themselves are not aware of the importance of it, the people of the State and of neighboring States have shown that they 'are.

Excerpt from Merchants' Association Review, Vol. 9: San Francisco Cal;, September, 1904 With all the hope an American can gather from the history of his country, with all the confidence a Californian can gain from the proud position of his State, with all the earnestness a. San Franciscan can summon from the past, present and future of his city, I appeal to the Business Men of San Francisco. The issue is in your keeping, destiny in your hands. Arise to the needs of the hour, and all that you desire for your city is pos sible. Remain inactive, content, neglectful, and corruption will fatten on corruption, infamy grow strong in infamy, and your loved city Will stand in the eyes of the world discredited, debased and disgraced. These be strong words, my masters - but they find their warrant in our city's present. Rottenness is rife, corruption staple; the municipality is in the hands of the enemies of good government.
