Te | 4id not advocate that the United States| should permanently retain the Spanish possessions, but contended that they should be released to some other power than Spain. He said: “I compare the position of ..e United States at the present time to that of the neighbor who has interfered in behalf of a boy who has been continually beaten by an unmerciful parent. The nelghbor whips parent, and in order to pre- gerve boy’s hide from future torture he has taken possession of the lad.

Dr. Bannerman has recently returned after seven years of missionary work among the aborigiral Africans of French Congo, on the west coast of Africa.

Not only did they acquire the la guage of the natives but they taught them the English of the Bible and there were many of them who, despite their wild instincts, accepted the faith and abided by it. Dr. Bannerman speaks this afternoon before the ladies of the Occidental Board of Foreign Missions at 920 Sacramento treet. On the 16th inst. he will recount his -experfences at Trinity Presbyterian Church. — Pioneer Rowing Club Election.

For the benefit of those who are in doubt about the matter it should be known that thé old Republican County Committee will hold office until the end of this year and be in full control dur- en- | | { | | | | ing the campaign. The new members of the committee will go into service at the beginning of the new year. DALTON WILL HAVE JOEN HACKETT WILL RUN FOR ASSESSOR AGAINST HIM. Democrats Heading Off the Recent Action of the Silver Repub- licans. OAKLAND, Oct. 2.—After a long confer- ence of the dissatisfied elements of the various parties that vainly endeavored to fuse on a county ticket, it was decided | to-night that the Democrats should put a candidate in the field to run against Henry Dalton, the Republican nominee for Assessor. Captain John Hackett is the man who has been chosen and he has | signified his willingness to accept. Some weeks ago, it is sald, Robert M. Fitzgerald requested Captain Hackett to accept the nomination at the hands of the fusion county convention, but the captain demurred at that time; later the privi- lege of naming the Assessor on the fusion ticket was conceded to the Silver Repub- licans by the Democratic_committee in a conference of which Mr. Fitzgerald was chairman. To the surprise of everybody, the Silver Republicans did not name a member of their party, but indorsed the Republican nominee, who is a pronounced sound money man. This caused dissatis- faction on the floor of the Democratic convention, which has steadily increased. It was stated to-night that Mr. Dalton hal not signified his intention of indors- ing the platform or of accepting the nom- ination of the fusionists and so Democrats decided to have a candidate of their own. “It is true that I have agreed to run for Assessor,” said Captain Hackett to- night, “‘and I belleve the Democrats are quite able to take care of thelr own poli- tics, and need not go to the Silver Repub- licans for a candidate. I was asked some weeks ago to make the race but declined at that time as 1 wanted to feel sure that my party did actually want mé and was sincere in making the offer. They have no other candldate and I have consented to enter the arena with Mr. Dalton. It is also reported that the Independent Re&)ublicuns have visited John L. Davie and asked him to reconsider his declina- tion of their indorsement. Owing to the pressure brought to bear it is sald that { the matter will be held In abeyance until next Saturd: —— e Socialist Meeting. Willlam Edlin, a student atsthe Stan- ford University, spoke last night before the socialist gathering in_ Washington Hall. His subject was the “‘Philosophy of Socialism,” which theme he expounded to a packed house. Mr. Edlin treated his subject from a purely logical and philo- sophical standpoint. ————— Mass-Meeting of Labor Clubs. A grand mass meeting of the United Labor League Clubs will be held at the corner of Mason and Washington streets to-morrow evening, October 4, at 8:30 sharp. A number of prominent speakers and men identified with labor organiza- tions will address the meeting. e Fell Downstairs. M. Hopkins, an old man living at 420 Sixth street, fell down a flight of stairs in his house yesterday afternoon. He was taken to the Receiving Hospital and a long. deep gash under his chin was stitched and dressed. He lost consider- able blood. e e YOUNG LADIES' INSTITUTE. Branch No. 7 has appointed a commit- tee, with Miss Mae Stein as chairman, to nrransge for a party to be given in Na- tive Sons’ Hall during the latter part of the current month. Branch No. 2 will glve an at home on the last Friday in the month in head- quarters. Al the local branches will be invited, and each member of Branch No. 2 will 'be permitted to bring one lady eligible to membership. Branch No. 33 of Victoria, B. C., cele- brated its seventh anniversary on the 24th inst. by giving an entertainment and hop. ————————— KNIGHTS AND LADIES OF HONOR. The returns that are recefved at the of- fice of Grand Secretary Quitzow are very encouraging, and they show that there has been a revival in the order, with prospects of a_good showing at the close of the term of the present officers. The celebration of the anniversary a few wecks since has had a good effect in this, that it drew attention to the order, and 1t is expected that as a result it wiil draw many new members to the several local lodges. FRATERNAL BROTHERHOOD. The Fraternal Brotherhood, organized in Los Angeles about two years ago, has instituted a lodge in this city, it héleg been orfianized by Supreme President C. P. Dau and instituted as San Fran- cisco Lodge No. 64. Steps are being taken to organize a lodge in Oakland. POCAHONTAS AND, OLD GLORY. Pocahontas Council of the Degree of Pocahontas, 1. O. R.

OUR TRADE RELATIONS WITH CHINA G. W. Chalfant Explains. Rev. CAPABLE OF VAST EXPANSION ALREADY SECOND ONLYTO THAT OF GREAT BRITAIN. Much Greater Even Now Than Most Americans Realize—Probable Cause of the Emperor’s Death. ““Americans do not begin to realize the extent of their present trade relations with Northern China and the posibilities for its future growth,” said Dr. G. W. Chalfant last evening. Dr. Chalfant and his wife have just returned from an ex- tended tour of the Orient, whither they went to visit their two sons, who are laboring in the missionary fleld there. Dr. Chalfant is a leading Presbyterian divine of Pittsburg and will resume his journey home to-morow. “I penetrated the interfor of China much further than the average European trav- eler does,” he contlnued, “and I was sur- prised at the immense quantites of Amer- ican goods that were steadily being car- ried far inland on the backs of donkeys. Cotton goods and ofl are the staple com- modities, though there is a large and con- stantly increasing demand for American wire nalls, which the natives find are much superior to the English mak “China must expand or her inevitable fate will be disruption. In either event the United States is certain to profit im- mensely if proper steps are taken to fos- ter trade relations. in the north and German greed for terri- torial expansion further south is bein bitterly opposed by England, in whic! she has the support of Japan and_the United States. 'ggls is true, for our Min- ister at Peking told me personally that he was In full sympathy with England’'s position. ““You will see that if the report of the Emperor’s death proves true, the Ameri- can fleet at Manila, or a large portion of it, will be dispatched to ongkong in short order. Dewey’s victory has made a wonderful impre: the Chinese and instead of re navy lightly, as they formerly did, they now regard it with the greatest respect. “It is my bellef that China will expand; even the Dowager Empress is shrewd enough to see that the only way to pre- vent the partitioning of the empire among the European nations is to take on amon, down the barriers that have walled it in | from the markets of the world in the past. “The Emperor is—or was—exceedingly | progressive. His servants werg continu- ally ransacking the stores of Peking for English literature, which he delighted to pour over, and he had even undertaken to ride a bicycle while I was in Peking. Moreover, he was preparing to take a railway journey some distance away, a special train of three cars being in course | of construction for him. As no sovereign has left the walled city for centuries it is easily to be seen what a stir this has created. “If his Majesty be really dead, I think it will be shown that he committed official suicide, which is the pmgler course to pur- sue in China when any high official finds he has lost the confidence of his people. It was due primarily, I believe, to his decree abolishing the essay as the test for scholarships and the substitution of a treatise on chemistry. From time im- memorial it has been the custom for ap- plicants for scholarship to prepare an es- say, taking extracts from the Chinese ciassics, not one of which {s less than 3000 years old. These extracts were strung together from memory, and on their as- ceptance depends the granting of scholar- ships. =~ These scholarships entitle the holder to assume office and, in fact, raises him to highest rank. No wonder, then, that the Emperor’s decree dolng away with the essay and substituting a treatise on chemistry caused trouble. Nobody in China knows anything about chemistry; and to fulfill the requirements of the de- cree necessitates first the mastery of Eng- lish and then a course in chemistry. “‘Even though the Emperor be Xend it will not stop the advance of China, and the United States will_profit immeasur- Bhlfi. particularly the Pacific Coast, for with your cheap water transportation you ought to build up great cotton factories, nail works and other industries to meet the demand in China.” Dr. Chalfant delivered an address at the Howard Presbyterian Church yesterday morning on China, its resources and its political future. In the evening he ac- cepted an invitation from Dr. Hemphill to occupy the pulpit of Calvary Church. His subject was “The Providential Gov- ernment of the World by Jesus Christ.” FRIENDS OF THE FOREST. On the evening of the 2ith ult. Mizpah Lodge gave a party in its hall at Six- teenth and Valencia streets which was in the nature of an “at home.” It was a pleasant affair. Last Monday night Washington Hall was very tastefully and artistically dec. orated with imitation icicles and winter flowers to carry out the idea of a winter evening in a cold climate, and all because Lincoln Lodge had announced a ‘“snow party.” The hall was crowded and the majority of the lady members were at- tired in pure white. The commissioners on _entertainment, Miss Hoffman, Mrs. Hicks, Mrs. Blackall, the Misses Sharp, Mrs. Trenele and Mrs. Waldo, ‘presented an_enjoyable programme that included recitations by Miss McDermott, Mr. Brackett, Pearl Tucker, Maud Adams; declamations by D. C. Hanlon, violin solo by Mr. Wagner, and a fancy dance by Annie Berg. Then followed dancing and the serving of icecream, and shere was mirth and good feeling until the musi- cians playe Home, Sweet Home.” On Tuesday night last Pioneer Lodge gave an ‘“‘at home’ in Washington Hall and #eceived a large number of its friends, including a great many sol- dlers. There was a good programme of dances, and as a diversion Miss Winnie favored with a recitation. The pleasant social did not break up until it was time to catch the last car. The supreme officers paid an_ official visit to Richmond Lodge last Wednesday night, and they were cordially welcomed. The members, after the transaction of business, entertained. the visitors with a select programme of vocal and instru. mental numbers. ————— THE DRUIDS. During the past week Hesperian Grove conferred the third degree on three can- didates; Aurora Grove conferred the same degree on a candidate and received three propositions; Frederich Seig Grove also conferred the tnird degree and received three propositions; Merced Grove received three propositions at Its last held meet- ing. ‘ghe lecture on a trip in 185 from San Francisco to_ the Dalles, delivered last weck before Hesperian Grove by E. Ma- innis, P. N. G. A., was a very interest- ng one and was listened to with marked attention by the many Drulds present. He was one of the {any named by the Government to select a route to Oregon from California. He gave a vivid descrip- tion of the country fis it then was, and told some blood-curdling stories of en- counters with the Indians. The grand officers paid a visit to Liv- ermore Grove last Friday at the request of that grove for the purpose of cqnfer- ring the third degree. There were pres- ent a number of the Druids from Pleas- anton Grove. After the work there was an enjoyable banquet. ——————— YOUNG MEN’S INSTITUTE. Edward A.
