HILE we feel little or no concern for the wel- | Wiare of the office-seekers in the Democratic party of this city, we coniess to a lively inter- est in the future of the large body of voters who are every two years fooled into voting the tickets pre- pared for them by the bosses of that party. In pur- suance of a plan we have formed of promptly expos- ing all kinds of political chicanery, at this time we deem it our duty to warn these Democrats against one of the individuals who is attempting to subvert their local organization for his own selfish purposes. We refer to “Whisperin Gavin McNab, the rene- gade Republican, now leading Democratic boss. McNab was born -holding instinct, and soon after arriving in this country from Scotland He began as a pupil of the late Boss Higgins, and shortly after being naturalized took office under Charles S. Rug- ublican Superintendent of Streets. At that b belonged to Republican clubs and every- where cheered for the old flag and an appropriation. The general impression was that the young Scotch- man had made a happy choice in local politics and | that he was destined to hold a permanent place at | the municipal crib. But it turned out that he had made a mistake in selecting his party. He discovered even before the expiration of his term in the office of Ruggles that the Democrats carry San Francisco oftener than the | Republicans. In other words, he found that the Bay | City as a “Democratic city.” He therefore lost no time in changing his coat. He abandoned the vice of Higgins and entered that of Boss Buckley. The latter, however, did not seem to appreciate him, and after a brief attempt to get an office under the leadership of the Livermore sage, McNab formally announced himself a “reformer” and 100k to the road. | He has now been holding up all parties in San Fran- | cisco for upward of six years, anxiously waiting for | the people to call him. | It is proper that the Democrats of this city should be made thoroughly acquainted with the three bosses who have appointed a committee to rule them. Gould is from Stockton and Alford from Tulare. They are | country innocents and have become in this city the | victims of “Whispering” McNab, the political bunko | man. If the wily Scotchman has not already sold | them gold bricks he certainly will do so beforc long. | If the plan which McNab has formed of capturing | the municipal Democratic party proves a success it | is safe to say that neither Gould nor Alford will get | his fair share of the resulting plunder. McNab is not | generous when it comes to distributing the offices. | Higgins and Buckley taught him that the essence of | politics is to hold on to everything with the tenacity of death. \ | Led by a renegade Republican, the Democracy of | San Francisco is not likely to succeed this year. But, | nevertheless, publication of the fact that the organiza- tion is being subverted by a Hessian should be made and widely disseminated. Democrats cannot be | too careful of Boss McNab. He is in politics for his | own selfish purposes, and is always a dangerous with an off e he cast his lot with the Republican party. gles, a Re time M ser- leader. A man who acts from principle may be trusted anywhere. A man who acts for his personal interests and who changes his political coat to get an office can never be trusted. McNab may convert himself into a Republican in the midst of the fight this year without notifying his party followers. bring on terrible disaster. That would It is a pleasure to note that the ex-Empress Eu- genie has joined the ranks of yellow journalism. There is an advantage in securing the services of the eminent, in that they are not apt to take the trouble to denounce the palpable lie. Of course nobody of intelligence would for an instant believe the lady to be on the Hearstling staff, but that combination is not catering to intelligence. An evening paper seems to object to The Call’s al- lusion to its own career as a newspaper. Naturally. Perhaps some time the evening paper may also launch upon such a career, but this will be after all connected with the present management shall have gone—per- haps to heaven. So far the war has been one-sided, and all the ex- tensive casualties have fallen to Spain. But after all this circumstance is fortunate for Spain. She will ‘pay dear for any reverse which may come to any part of the forces of the United States. France and Russia are exchanging views as to the disposition to be made of the Philippines. Will they kindly extend their operations so as to include a set- tlement of the Oakland water front? That is as clearly their business as is the Philippine matter. Possibly the police officer who was fined for reading while on duty had been reading an account of the prospective exit of Chief Lees, in which case the fine should be remitted. | Hoff case has overthrown this. JANUS AND MAGUIRE. UDGE MAGUIRE in pursuit of an office offers QJ an interesting study and furnishes a record that does no credit to his foresight and judgment. In 1887 he withdrew permanently from the Demo- cratic party because it was not in favor of the single tax and announced his intention to support Henry George for President. Like other fad fanatics, he be- that private ownership of land would be abolished, and that the movement for its abolition would command so large a follow- ing that it would sweep its candidates into office. Allied to this movement in America was the anti-landlord issue in Ireland, that had for its motive the actual suffering of tenantry exposed to the rapacity of non-resident landlords. In 1887, too, there were symptoms of revolt of the Irish in America from the church of their ancestors, and Father McGlynn suddenly loomed in the sky as the probable leader of an anti-Pope movement in asso- ciation with Henry George. Judge Maguire thought that he saw a chance to combine communisn and religious bigotry and get an office out of the shitiffle. So he wrote his book, “Ireland and the Pope,” and it was printed for him by his friend, the editor of the San Francisco Star, who wanted the Pennsylvania militia killed as rattle- snakes. In this book the method was Maguirean in the ex- treme. Where necessary he ignored historical facts,’ and where necessary he invented them; his language was violent, as it always is, for the Judge has su- preme confidence in the efficacy of hard words, and thinks they fully take the place of reason and logic. This habit is revealed in the extended title of his book, which is: “Ireland and the Pope: A Brief History of Papal Intrigues Against Irish Liberty From Adrian IV to Leo XIII.-By James G. Ma- guire, Judge of the Superior Court of San Fran- cisco, California. Printed by James H. Barry, 429 Montgomery street.” In his preface he said he would show the “treach- of the Pope and “the persistent and deadly char- He said: “I conceive it o acter” of his interference. | to be a most marvelous record of an alliance of cen- | turies, which has been characterized by constant and simple faith and confidence on one side (the Irish people), and equally constant duplicity, ingratitude and tyranny on the other (the Pope). To the Ultra- montanes who may read this book and whose stereo- typed criticism I may now fairly anticipate, I have but to say that it is not my fault that the spiritual heads of the Catholic church claim also to be, by divine right, temporal rulers, theoretically, over all nations, and in terrible reality over Ireland. It is not my fault, but more shame to them if the publication of the political history they have made shall disadvantage | the church. It is my purpose to assist in raising my father’s countrymen and my own kinsmen above that groveling fear of the Pope which makes so many of them nerveless when he strikes a blow at their coun-| try and their race. The Pope in this respect enjoys the unenviable, not to say infamous, distinction of being dangerous only to those who confide in him.” | With that fine preface he proceeds through 118 pages. | of epithet, in which he says “the most cruel and bar- barous persecution of the Irish people took place during and throughout the period of four hundred years before England became Protestant, and while the Kings of England were the Pope's beloved sons in Christ,” and that Ireland “has been sadly handi- capped in her struggle by her dependence on the broken reed of Roman honor. The whole his- tory of the Vatican shows that ever since it assumed to be the political as well as the religious head of the world its universal policy has been to crush the weak, to frighten the timid and to conciliate the strong and defiant.” That statement, it will be observed, goes outside the Irish question and is an ascription to the Papacy ¢i a universal policy of enmity and oppression to the weak and timid. Critics of the Papacy, who have written from the standpoint of religious difference, have never gone that far in ascribing a permanent and universal record to the Pope adverse to the interests of humanity. Describing the incidents of Daniel O’Connell’s fight for repeal of Catholic disabilities, the Judge plumes his wings for a high rhetorical flight and ex- claims: “But lo! the goddess of Irish liberty, lately so joy- ful, is weeping. She faints, she reels. Alas! the fangs of the Vatican serpent have been driven again to her heart.” The special Pope described by the Judge as the serpent of the Vatican was Gregory XVI, and his of- fense consisted in a rescript to the Irish priests to refrain from participation in the heated political meet- ings then being held! In America we consider it rather proper for clergy- men of all denominations to keep aloof from partisan assemblies, and we rather fancy the Judge would yell “murder” if a priest were to appear in a meeting not in his interest. But for advising this wholesome abstention in Ireland the Pope became “a serpent” in the Maguire view. Again, the Judge accuses the Pope of being eager “to shelter hell hounds,” and he speaks of Cardinal McCabe as “the red-cap hunting hound of the Vat- ican.” The whole book abounds in this style of invective. No doubt the Judge expected it to produce a pro- found impression, but it did net. His friend Barry pocketed whatever profit came of the sale of it to the A. P. A. lodges when they were organized, and then it passed out of print.. Now we find Judge Maguire back in the Demo- cratic party, which he permanently abandoned, and in pursuit of office, ingratiating himself with those whom he denounced as in “groveling fear of the Pope,” and in full cry against the A. P. A. who used his book in their ritual. It is a record so'devious and deceitful as to astonish one at the success which has so far attended it. There had been a reasonable hope that the lawyers of California would cease to make frivolous appeals on behalf of murderers concerning whose guilt no shadow of doubt existed, but some attorney in the To say that he should be ashamed thus to trifle with the law it is his sworn duty to uphold is expressing the truth with a mildness scarcely warranted by the occasion. It is strange that the Supreme Court should permit its dig- nity to be assailed in this gross and idle fashion. ‘While nobody wants to believe that United. States transports are in danger of attack from Spanish war- ships, the rumor creates a feeling of uneasiness so marked that the news of the safe landing of the soldiers will be joyfully received. School teachers have been generous in support of the Red Cross, which is more to their credit since the Board of Education has managed so the teachers must wait months for the salaries earned. Statements that Cervera’s part in the war is ended may be premature. It is possible that his grateful countrymen may yet see fit to court-martial and shoot the brave admiral. | relative away. SOUTHERN PACIFIC TYRANNY. T.HERE is no more disagreeable thing with which to come in contact than a person of a low order of intelligence yet by accident or the folly of favoritism invested with a little authority, which he does not know how to use. By some eccen- tricity of nature the smaller such a man is the bigger he thinks he is and the more detestable he becomes when, through any freak of fortune,. this authority is thrust upon him. He may have been only a petty nuisance; on the instant he rises almost to the pro- portions of a calamity. He is changed to a bully, and his inherent boorishness comes to the surface. This line of thought leads inevitably to considera- tion of an individual who has decreed that only such newspaper representatives as he shall elect are to be permitted on the Pacific Mail dock, a place where his orders are sometimes obeyed and his unworth always anathematized. For while he is himself an employe, he looks upon himself as monarch, and exacts de- ference from the unlucky employes under his thumb. To kow-tow in his presence is a part of the duty of each. This individual does not own the water front nor even a portion of it. He simply occupies a position into which he was shunted by the grace of C. P. Huntington, who is under the inconvenience of being a relative by marriage and would rather have the sufiiering public support *his dependent than to sup- port him himself. Possibly Huntington did not realize what a bur- den he was unloading on the community when he snatched this fellow from the fate of being court- martialed and gave to him the privilege of bulging with pomp as he dictates orders to his betters. Hun- tington is the head, body and appetite of the Southern Pacific and of the Pacific Mail. The two concerns are so interwoven that there is no possibility of separating them. Therefore the retention of a misfit oflicial at the headquarters of the Pacific Mail is as niuch a railroad trick as though the official had some other title. He is part of the long-standing imposi- ticn, a_noxious addition to the long list of wrongs from which San Francisco has suffered by the acts of the Southern Pacific. Yet this creature of the company is as thoroughly hated by associates as by the public. Faced by men of courage who are not forced for a livelihood to humble themselves before him he is a craven. Before all others he is a bluster- ing braggart, making an unpleasant spectacle and ex- citing disgust of a degree of which these few remarks are intended to be an expression. This paper does not propose that its representa- tives shall be excluded from any place to which rep- resentatives of other papers have access, nor does it believe that merely by swelling up after the manner oi a toad a churlish official can stand in its path with- out danger of sustaining a puncture followed by col- lapse. The matter will be appealed to the highest authority. There should be no occasion for appea ing higher than to the Southern Pacific itseli, for this annoying trifle, practically kicked out of the navy, is part of its paraphernalia for the subduing of happi- ness. After the first kick he alighted in an easy chair, | but a second kick is overdue now and should be ad- miristered without regard to where he shall alight. Huntington could win much gratitude by taking his Here the fellow expends his-energies in insulting patrons. He is not adapted to the real di ties of the place. He lacks the instincts of the gen- tleman and so gentlemen do not like to meet him. The effect of his presence is to make an enemy for the Southern Pacific at every opportunity. While not officially engaged in doing this, he manages to make Limself so unbearable that the glare of publicity nat- urally falls on him, and by the light of it appears clearly the brand of the ass, while the listening ear detects the sound of a bray. CAMP MERRITT A MISTAKE. ROM the first The Call objected to the removal Fof troops from the Presidio to the Bay District. Its agitation of the matter has not been fruit- less. Soon the troops will be back where they be- long, and other soldiers arriving here will be taken to a place beside them in the reservation. There has never been advanced any adequate excuse for the removal of the volunteers from the Presidio to the Bay District; They should have been kept at the former place, their natural rendezvous. For such a course there were many reasons, and for the contrary none. Nobody seems ready to accept responsibility for the original change. There was a suspicion that there was about it the savor of jobbery, and this suspicion has not been wholly allayed. At Camp Merritt the sanitary conditions are so far from perfect as to be an actual menace. They are worse in every respect than at the Presidio, and have excited much alarm. Traversed by open streets, the camp could not be kept free from undesirable char- acters. Surrounded by a lot of abandoned houses capable of being quickly turned to use for saloon pur- poses, it was soon hedged about by an array of dramshops, tending to the promotion of disorder. Altogether, Camp Merritt has been a mistake. Now iniormat'bon comes from a reliable source that the troops are going back to the Presidio. When the second expedition shall have sailed the remaining regiments are to be quartered in the Government grounds, and regiments arriving thereafter will join them there. This is as people interested in the welfare of the soldiers and of the citizens have been wishing. and it commends itself to the wisdom of the mili- tary authorities. There is better natural drainage at the Presidio than on the sand flats of the Bay Dis- trict. There is more room, and there will be on the reservation a possibility of enforcing discipline. Such men and women as may not be considerea proper visitors can be kept away, the saloon will not have unhindered sway, and the facilities for light and water will be at least equal to those now available. It is stated that the military authorities hesitated about letting the water company invade the grounds, fearing that it would keep forever the grip acquired through the emergency. But the Government ought to be bigger than a water company. The pretext is not one appealing to the judgment, and the people will be glad to learn that it is no longer deemed sufficiently potent to insure the maintenance of a camp in the midst of a thickly populated district where it must in time have become a dangerous nuisance. ——— Immediately after the announcement by the yellow paper that only 5000 troops were to be sent to Manila the Government renewed its efforts to get transports enough to send at least 20,000. There is a way of getting news out of the yellow paper, but to read all its statements exactly backward is rather inconvenient, and there is no other possibility of utilizing them. The report that the rain at Manila rendered useless the rifles of the Spanish is difficult of belief. It can- not be possible they are armed with muzzle-loaders to which powder is fed from a cow’s horn. Forrcspondents ordered from Cuba were only per- mitted to depart upon promise that they would never return.
