They learned, after a hard and | frutless chase, that the Democracy pro- | posed to chew the rag for awhile, as one of the members put it, and that they { woull not declare themselyes until all matters in controversy bad been satis- factorily arranged. Nothing can be done until the arrival of J. J. Dwyer from the | East. When Congressman McCall made his speech two years ago before the Nation, in which he objected to a Democratic free- trade crown of thorns being pressed npon the brow of labor and to the crucifixion of said labor upon a cross of 14-carat gold, he | little reckea that Boy Orator Bryan of | Nebraska would steal his metaphors and | other figures and use them for the benefit of Santa Claus Stewart of Nevada and other wealthy owners of silver mines. But thereal facts of the case are that | Bryan, who had been in the service of the | Silver Minesowners’ Association, stole the | florid periods of McCall and with the aid | of a Delsarte teacher made the points | effective in a silver speech before the | silver, alias Democratic, convention at| Chicago. But his speech was stolen and was de- livered in style. Bland, micknamed *‘Sil- verDick,” wasthe logical candidate, but he was turned down for a funambulistic per- former, 8 man named Bryan, who, ac- cused of being an anarchist, repudiated their principles and declared that he was a Democrat. He also contended that the People’s party was too radical for his Democratic stomach and that he rejected it in toto. Messages of hope and congratulation continue to pourin to the Republican State Central Committee in the Palace Hotel. One of those messages from the Tulare County Central Committee states that “McKinley is gaining ground here every day. At firsta tremengous Populist wave struck over this county in favor of Bryan and free silver, but the tide on second thought seems to have turned on MecKin- ley and protection. We propose to show that the unlimited free coinage of silverl without 1nternational agreement is de- structive of the basic principles of the Re- public. The free-trade Democratic system has been proved to be damnable.” ¥rom El Dorado County comes word that as to the political situstion it now looks as if the Populistic foe was beaten, The chairman says: “I firmly betieve that McKinley will carry this county by a handsome majority.”” The chairman of the Santa Barbara County Committee su1thun tbe party is united in & majority, at tleast, of the full silver forces in the ranks of the party. “Bryan means anarchy,” he said. *“The Populists are very much disgruntied. They are even now talking of the replac- ing of Bryan with some one else.” From Yolo County comes a letter to the Republican State Central Committee say- ing: “There are but few kickers in this Jocality. Ido not know of any time when Isaw the party in better sbape.” The following is & copy ot 8 circular L TRUSTS NI ?Judge Coffey So Decides in the Matter of Nathaniel Cole’s Estate. One Hundred Thousand Dollars Worth of Property to Be Divided at Once. Judge Coffey yesterday rendered a de- cision in the suit of Mrs. Maud A. Day against the executors of the will of her father, Nathaniel W. Cole. Cole was a wealthy resident of the Mission, who died in April, 1834. By the terms of his will he left all his property, worth about $100,000, in trust for his daughter, Maud A. Day, wife of George T. Day, and his adopted daughter, Edith Baxter Cole. Mrys. Day’s property was to continue in trust until the death of her husband, or if she should die before him the estate was to be distributed to her children. Miss Cole’s portion of the estate, consisting of two Jots, one on Shotwell and one on Mis- sion street, was to be turned over to her when she became 21 years of aga. One thousand dollars was also left to Mrs. Emma Ransom of East Oakland, who was to look after the education and sup- port of Miss Cole during her minority. The executors of the trust looked after matters so closely that although Miss Cole’s wants were attended to Mrs. Day received nothing, the balance of the in- come from the estate b“"’f applied to the closing of its accounts. Therefore Mrs. Day brought suit to have the trus: set aside, to have Edith Baxter Cole declared not the’ legally adopted daughter of the deceased and to have Mrs. Ransom’s leg- acy declared void. It was provided, how- ever, in the suit that the adopted daughter should receive the property willed to her in any event. The main point relied-upon by the peti- tioner 1n assailing the legality of Edith Baxter’s adoption was extremely novel, though apparently supported by an early sent to the Republican Alliance of Oak- land: California case. It wasin effect thatadop- tion proceedings are not judicial business tificates to Practice. The State Board of Dental Examiners Examining the Examination Papers of Candidates for Cer- Of Twelve Aspirants Only Three, Including a Chinaman, Failed. tion in this State is not a judicial proceed- | ing, and the order, therefore, is in no sense to be considered the judement of a | court, still some judicial virtue inheres in it, else 1t were vain to impose a duty upzn a Judge of a Superior Court foreigu to his office gnd compelling him to make an ex- amination, take evidence and thereafter and thereupon, ‘if satisfied,’ to make an ‘order’ declaring a status.” The Judge con- cludes that though the proceeding be not any one of the kinds of judicial actions specified in the Civil Code it has certainly a judicial savor. Judge Coffey in his decision concludes that the first count of the complaint—the main one—must be sustammed. He de- clares, as has Judge Slack in the Fair case, | that a life-long trust is invalid, because it suspends the power of alienation beyond the period of lives and beinz. Edith Bax- ter Cole is held to be the legally adopted daonghter of Nathaniel W. Cole, and Mrs. | Ransom's legacy is left untouched. The trust in Miss Cole’s case is said to be invalid, because it continues until she | is 21 years of age, whereas the legal ma- | jority of women in California is 18 years. The petition for a distribution of the estate is granted, and the daughter and the adopted daughtar will share it imme- diately. ABOUT SUICIDES. Great Interest In tho Subject and a Lecture by Dr. Jerome Anderson, The great interest in the subject ot suicides, its recent unusual prevalence in this City, and the questionsof whether man can escape his burdens by self-in- flicted deatb, and whether suicide is ever justifiable continues unabated. And now the Theosophists of the City have taken advantage of the trend of local thought, and the president of the San Francisco society, Dr. Jerome A. Anderson, is ad- Alliance, Attention!

Thereis a long list of eminent 8| akers, for which reason it would be well for those who at- tend to go early. Harry J. Agnew, the well-known horse- man, has just returned from a visit to Guutemala, Central America. He went down there four months ago with a string l of valuable trotting-horses and sold them to tgo aristocracy of that place at a good profit, When asked to-day as to how he stood enthe currency question he pointed to a and hence in the adoption papers the words, “‘In the Superior Court” and “the honoroble court” and “in open court,” constituted error. The petitioner urges that ‘“the Legislature might have re- quired the proceedings to be taken before aconstable, in which case the statute would have to be strictly comflled with, thouch no one would then think of callingit jud:- cial business.”” Ia commenting on this phase of the case, Judge Coffey said: “While it is true, according to cthe Williams case, 102 California, page 77, that the actof adop- vertised for a lecture on the question of fimfilda to-morrow evening at Golden Gate all.

THEY CAN PULL TEETH LEGHLLY, State Board of Dental Ex- aminers Grant Nine Certificates. ONLY THREE FAILURES. Nine Out of Twelve Aspirants Give Satisfactory Evidence of Skill CARL MCON LEE RFJECTED. A Denizen of the Chincse Quarter Falls Down on Theoretical Dentistry. The State Board of Dental Examiners has been in session at the rooms of the Stomatological Club, corner of Post and Stockton streets, since Tuesday, endeav- oring to ascertain by searching examina. tions who of the even dozen applicants who presented themselves were competent to extract molars, do funny things to jumping nerves and take all sorts of liber- ties with the interior of unsuspecting pa- tients’ heads. The board at present is coraposed of five members. This is three shy of the nor- mal nunrber, one having resigned during the past year and the terms of two having expired. The board as at present consti- tuted consists of: Dr. F. F. Tebbetts of Sacramento, president; Thomas Morffew of San Francisco, F. W. Bliss, Santa Cruz; W. A. Moore, Benicia, and J. D. Hodgen, secretary, San Frangisco. The tests to which candidates are sub- mitted are not simple 1fthe forbidding titles of the subjects of examination are any guide. The examinations are divided into two classes, theoretical and practical. The theoretical embraces an even dozen such subjects as hygiene, pathology, ma- teria medica, prosthetic dentistry, his- tology and metallurgy. If the aspirant masters all these branches he is only half way to the goal of bis ambition. "If he does not attain a respectable percentage in them his troubles are all over. Yesterday the examiners took the stu- dents who had proved themselves suffi- ciently proficient in theoretical dentistry to the rooms of the College of Dentistry. There they proved their prowess upon the jaws of suffering victims. At the end of this test the examiners re- paired to the rooms of the Stomatological Club, and _after deliberation decideld] :&:n the following young men were entitled to certificuuz:sfi. H. Rocke of San Fran- cisco, F. R. Husted of San Jose, h. F, Roberts of San Franeisco, M. 8. Childs of Suisan, 8. J. Symmons of Oakland, G. W, Larken of Sacramento, E. Pieper of San Jocse, J. Dowling of San Francisco, W. W. Head of 8an Francisco. ‘Among the unsuccessful applicants was Carl Moon Lee, who has for some time been wielding his forceps in Chinatown. Moon Lee was in nowise abashed by the imposing array of high-priced woyds con- tained in the questions, and he waded in merrily. It was evident from his answers that even the most abstruse topics had been given some attention by him, but it was also evident that his hold upon the English language was rauner treacherous, From works on histology and therapeutics he had undoubtedly gleared ideas, but the ideas he had gleaned gere not those which the authors had sown. As a con- sequence Carl Moon Lee was rejected with- out his having an opportunity to show in the practical class what new tricks the heathen Chinee is prepared to contribute to dental science, 5 % The election of officers’ which was to have taken place was deferred on sccount of the vacancies in the board. e APPROVAL OF OCEAN VIEW E. F. Loud, Claus Spreckeals and A. Davidson Unanimously Indorsed.

John T. Dare and Other Good Speakers Address a Large Audi- ence in Sullivan’s Hall. Sullivan’s Hall at 1114 Bryant street presented an animated appearance last evening, the occasion being the second regular meeting of the Imperial Republi- can Club of the Thirty-first District. When President James J. Graham called the meeting to order there were over 200 enthusiastic members present. D. E. Bul- livan, the vice-president, who had offered to uniform the club, stated that he would have handsome uniforms at the next meeting. J.J. Graham then introduced John T. Dare, the speaker of the evening, who in an eloquent address said among other things to the members of the club, who are largely composed of working people, that under Republican administration and protection the workingmen marched into the factories with well-filled dinner pails. But to-day the dinner-pails are turned up- side down and are empty by reason of the infamous Gorham-Wilson bill for revenue only. “But,” said he, *‘the workingmen will take their emnty dinner cans and turn them into snare drums and never etns drumming them until they havedrumme: McKinley into office.”” "Mr. Dare’s re- marks were received with much applause and enthusiasm. Short speeches were made by John F.Muliin, Jasper Planz, Tim Foley, W. B. Hopkins and others. The club unanimously indorsed John W. Koch for the nomination for Justice of the Peace, and adjourned with cheers for Mc- Kinley and protection. Rk CONTINENTAL LEAGUE. Will Hold a Ladles’ Night at Sara- toga Hall Next Fri- day.

Loud. CEEERS AND APPLAUSE. Vital Issues of the Day Stated in Clear and Convincing Terms. CLAUS SPRECKELS INDORSED. The Nomination of George W. Elder for Superintendent of Streets Is Urged. A large and enthusiastic gathering of gentlemen attended last night’s meeting of the Mission Independent Republican Club of the Thirty-fourth Assembly Dis- trict to hear Congressman Eugene F. Loud and other well-known orators speak upon the political issues of the day. C. C. Butt, president of the club, who occupied the chair, introduced Mr. Loud, who was received with many cordial acclamations. In a speech devoid of all rhetorical flour- ishes, but made up of solid and convincing arguments, the eloquent statesman clearly and simply set forth the principles of the Republican party concerning protection and the monetary question. Mr, Loud’s way of speaking is singularly convincing and original. In last night's address he divided the Republican platform into little squares, so to speak, and did not leave one until it had been fully explained and the argu- ments for and against it carcfurly weighed. Only in his peroration did Mr. Loud call into play some of those persuasive powers of oratory which he knows so well how to use. In terms glowingly impassioned in their fervor he recounted the past ser- vices rendered by the Republican party to the Nation, and "assurea his hearers that that party, truly grand and truly old, would now and always stand for all the Republic holds most dear. George W. Elder, Major Keil, County Committeemen John Jackson and R. Schleuter, Jobhn H. Harney and others spoke on the lines suggested by Mr. Loud, and on motion ot the last-named speaker the following preamble and resolutions were unanimously adopted: WHEREAS, Qur County Committeemen, John Jackson and R. Schleuier, have proved them- selves to be energetic workers in the cause of Republicanizm, and particularly for jts ad- vancement in the Thirty-fourth Assembly Dis- trict, and this club apprecivies their efforts in that behalf, and is desirous of tollowing the commendable example of sister Republican clubs; it is bereby Resolved, That the action of our Connty Com- mitteemen be and is hereby fullyindorsed, and that this club tender them its hearty and un- qualified sur ort; and be it further Resolved, That this club recognizes in John D. Spreckels a worthy leader of the Republican pariy; that he is in every respect worthy of our united strength and will use all honorable efforts to secure the election of his publis irited father, the Hon. Claus Spreckels, 1o the position of Presidential Elector of the Fifth Congressional District; und be it further Resol: That we heartily 1ndorse the candi- dacy of the Hon. Eugene F. Loud for Congress from this district, and will use all honorable means to secure his election, and that we urge the nomination of George W. Elder for Super. intendent of Streets. Before adjournment a unanimous vote of thanks, with three rousing cheers, was given the speakers of the evening. TR Yo OLD SOLDIERS AND SAILORS Thelr Organization Now Has the Name McKinley Pre- fixed. The annual meeting of the Veteran Soldiers and Sailors took place yesterday . at their headquarters. The room was filled with enthusiustic veterans, as the members had been notified that a change of name of the organization by prefixing that of McKinley would be acted on, also that election of officers would take place. The proposition of changing the name was carried by a nnanimous vote and the veterans were elated thereby. The election of officers resulted as fol- lows: President, Fergus Hansen; first vice-president, F, W. %Vhiullde; second vice-president, W. B. Maydwell; treagurer, L. D. Olin; secretary, E. P. Morey; cor- responding secretary, L. Washburn; ser- reant-at-arms, John H. Lakin. The following preamble and resolutions ‘were unanimousiy adopted : WHEREAS, The Democratic party under the administration of its chief executive, Grover Cleveland, has in its management and carry- ing out its principles for the past three years convinced all unbiased citizens that tarift for revenue only, coupled with free-trade doc- trine, has beén a failure, as evident by bank- ru))tc{ of farmers and merchants, the elos- ing of manufactories, the redugtion of the wages of our mechanies and laborers, and the increase of our. National debt by over two hundred millions of dollars; and whereas, under the wise and judicious administration of the Republican Pparty, with its principlesof tarift and protec- tion to American products and labor, we were not only able to carry on the Government but {0 reduce our immense National debt over 80 per cent, and thereby add to the wealth of the Nation, thus giving to the laborer an honest dollar and liberal wages and prosperity to all of our citizens; therefore, be i¢ ® Resolved, That we, ex-Union vetera: ldiers and sailors,again renew our fealty to the party of ‘rrogress and protection; that we indorse and give our henn{ support to the nominees of the National Republican Convention of 1896, and will do all in our power to further the election of Willlam McKinley and Garret A. Hobart. . NORTH BEACH LIVELY. Enthuslastic Meet!ng of the Lincoln Republican Club at the Rooms on Union Street.

Martin for the office of Sheriff of the City and County of San Francisco, and the motion was carrried amid great enthusiasm. Speeches were made by A. Campbell Jr. lndp Thomas F. Graham. The club has ordered 1000 campaign buttons, which will be ready for distribution in a few days. It is the intention of the club to havea grand ratitication meetirg in the near future to gpcn the campaign for McKinley and Ho- art. IS Loud for Congress.
