HE Chronicle again enters the field, chiding TThe Call, the Fresno Republican and other party papers which refuse to admit that the California Republican Convention-of 1898 had au- thority to bind the national Republican party to the ;po}icy of iree trade with Porto Rico and the Philip- pines. We regret that the pen of the Chronicle slips badly when it attempts to quote The Call. It says | The Call “then follows with the conundrum whether | California Republicans, who now oppose giving their | commercial rights to our island fellow citizens, are | false to the party And to this the Chronicle lanswers Ven? : | Will the learned pundit who insists upon that teil | us how these islanders became “our fellow citizens™? | It is a misrepresentation to attribute affirmation of | their fellow citizenship to The Call. That status we | have all the time denied to them. upon them by the treaty of Pari tended tor them by any act of Congress. The Chronicle insists upon the right of a State convention of this State to conclude the national | party upon an issue of policy until the same is re- versed by a national convention. The error in this is obvious. When a new issue arises, upon which | party welfare demands party harmony, and there is no opportunity for expression by a national conven- nor has it been ex- | tion, there must be an intermediate authority to act | tentatively until a national convention can utter it- | self. except the representatives of the party in the House and Senate. This intermediate authority considered and acted. The Chronicle is displeased because the | California members did not bolt that action and deiy | that authority. Had they obeyed the Chronicle and bolted they would have reduced their party to a | minority in the House, and would have done more than defeat the Porto Rico bill. given victory to the constitutional contentien of the { Bryanites and the Chronicle, that the Porto Ricans {and the Filipinos are “our fellow citizens,” | ing all the rights, immunities and privileges that the | constitution confers upon us! | It will be seen that in such bolt as the Chronicle advises there was much more than the passage of a tariff for Porto Rico. It meant the declaration of a possess- | mational policy of the gravest and most important | character. We need not again go over the argument and its proofs, that the constitution has'not been extended to P these islanders.

At that time the Republican convention | thought that “should be the policy.” The resolution did not say, “In. the event of the retention of this foreign territory it is the policy,” but | that it “should be the policy.” Who is to determine whether it should be or not? There is but one answer. No authority could de- termine it except the majority in Congress. ' That majority determined that for the present it should not be the policy of the United States. and the California members went with that majority of their party. The | Chronicle insists that they should have ‘gonc with the Democratic minority, and this we deny. The Republic: deny it with us. They also deny that these islanders are our fellow citizens.

Hundreds of thousands of sheep are being driven from that sec- tion into Idaho. The Governor of the latter State ihas issued a proclamation forbidding them to set | hoof in his jurisdiction. The Governors must be impressed by these mod- ern instances of things as they are on the iree range, enjoyed in common. The bill posters of San Jose, who demand the right to erect sky-scraping fences, insist that they are en- gaged in a lawful business. This is perhaps the first contention that the hideous plays'a legitimate part in | the law. : | | AN AGREEABLE OBJECT LESSON. EPORTS that the Merchants’ Association has | [:\) decided to sprinkle at its own expense the principal business streets of the city for -a | period of thirty days or longer, by way of giving an object lesson illustrating the benefits resulting from | keeping down the dust, are highly gratifying. Object ! lessons are not always pleasant. Sometimes they are | Iike bitter medicines, and teach wisdom by disagree- abie processes, but the one proposed is commendable | and desirable in every way. | Of course we would have had an object lesson on | PRETORIA IN 1940. the subject under any circumstances. Should there be no street sprinkling, nature herseli with dust ani | wind would raise an object lessen that no eyes could | escape. It would be an abomination and a nuisance, | it would injure stocks of goods, it would render the | streets disagreeable and make the city offensive to | every visitor, but it would teach its lesson thoroughly. | There would be no mistaking the dust and the wind, | and loud and long would be the complaints against | the authorities that leit the people exposed to such annoyance. | ation will be unobtrusive. There will be no dust to affront the eyes of people nor to damage the goods of merchants, hence a good many unobservant persons | will probably never note the lesson at all. They will go on their way unconscious of the fact that the | streets are being sprinkled, or even if they note that | much they will be unaware that it is by private en- | terprise and not by municipal administration the dust | is laid. We ought to profit as much by agreeable as by dis- agrecable object lessons. The sprinkling of the streets by private subscriptions should impress us as strongly as would the dust were the sprinkled. Tt should not be overlooked that the en- | terprise of the Merchants’ Association implies a lack of adequate administration on the part of the mu- nicipal authorities. There is something wrong in a community where private citizens have at their own expense to sprinkle business streets frequented by the community at large. It is pleasing, of course, to have | in the city men who are willing to undertake such work, but it would be more pleasing to have a city { government which would not leave such duties to be ! | performed by private generosity. That is the true ! moral of the agreéable object lesson the Merchants’ ation is to provide ‘for us, and it should not be overlooked by the public. e r—— { The Board of Public Works is still sorely dis- tressed by its effort to save Telegraph Hill. A pas | ing attention given to some of the neglected streets | | of the city might relieve the mental strain. 1 streets un- | | | | ‘ HOW TO LIVE LONG AND WELL. DRA D. K. PEARSONS: of Chicago, described as a “benefactor of colleges, who has given away a millionaire’s portion of his fortuns, | eighty years of age, in sound health, and resolved to live twenty years longer in equal good health,” has recently made public the system by which he has thus far managed to fulfill his desire of completing a hun- dred years of wholesome, hearty and happy life. The doctor, we are told, lives in a hous¢ with seven open fireplaces and sleeps in a bedroom with seven windows, the lower portions of which are always open. He rises at 6, breakfasts at 7, takes a half-hour | drive at 8, spends three hours and ten minutes at his office, dines at 1, takes a nap for an hour and a hali, then talks, reads or drives until 6, at which time he has a light supper, and goes to bed at 8. His pre- scription for long life is summed up thus: “Clock- work, clockwork all the year round; keep cool; don’t overload the stomach; breathe pure air, and lots of it; eat a vegetable diet; don’t cat late suppers; go to cited, and don’t forget to take a nap after dinner.” About the time the Chicago man was giving that | vegetarian advice in the city of the pork packers and the beef trust, Dr. John Fiske, the robust and mas- sive philosopher of Cambridge, was explaining to | his friends in Boston how he manages to keep vig- orous and hearty in spite of years. He says: “Always sit in a draft when I find one, wear the thinnest clothes I can find, winter and summer, catch cold cnce in three and four years, but not severely, and The object lesson given by the Merchants’ Associ- * : J-fl»'rnofln e A After \Bmu ¢ MESSAGE OF SYMPATHY TO PRESIDENT KRUGER SIGNED BY 2,000 SMITH SAILED FROM NEW YORK ON THE SWIFT OCE.

THE GOV-RNORS ON LEASING. | T transpires that at the meeting called at Salt Lake l for the Governors of Colorado, Nebraska, North | Dakota, South Dakota, Wyoming, Montana, Idaho, Nevada, California, Oregon, Washington, Arizona and New Mexico, only five Governors were present. They expressed satisfaction with things as | they are on the ranges, and decided if there were any change it should be by cession of all the public do- main to the States. Since then there has been a further illustration of things as they are on the range. Dr. Romine, a sheepman of Chadron, Nebraska, drove his flocks on to the range on the Wyoming line. He first pro- cured title to a homestead taken by an actual settler in that region, and dug wells, put up windmills and equipped a headquarters, and then followed with his thousands of sheep, overrunning not only the free range but the patented lands of others. One morning last week this gentle shepherd awoke to find several hundred of his best ewes too dead to skin, and sev- eral hundred more too sick to stand. The water had disagreed with them. He cleaned the poison out of his tanks and disinfected them. A few mornings later he found his windmills all a wreck on ground. They had blown over and the auger-holes mn the posts showed the direction from which the wind blew. He found also that ail his wells had been filled solid full of dirt and gravel.

Scarcely ever change a word once written, eat when hungry, rarely taste cof- | fee or wine or smoke a cigar, but drink two or three quarts of beer each day, and smoke a pipe all the time when at work. Never experienced the feeling of dis- | inclination for work, and, therefore, never had to | force work. If I feel dull when at work, a half hour at the piano restores normal mental condition, which is one more argument for the hygienic and recupera- tive effects of music.” It will be perceived there are wide differences be- tween the methods of the Chicago doctor and of the | Cambridge philosopher. The one lives on vegetables | and by clockwork, but he works only three hours and | ten minutes a day. The other eats irregularly, and stimulates himself with beer, tobacco and music, but he manages to work the greater part of the day. ‘Fiske has won the greater fame in the world of | science and letters, but Pearsons has made millions | of money. The citizen who desires to live a century may follow whichever example best suits his taste, but none should attempt to mix the two. It would be a bad policy, for example, to follow Fiske in the use of beer and tobacco while adopting Pearsons’ sys- tem of abstinence from work. 7 S—— Learned debaters in Missouri have reached the solemn conclusion that “Democratic principles are contrary to the laws of God.” The decision was has- tened by the interesting fact that one of the orators on the negative side almost killed his opponent with | the leg of a chair. ¥ —_— 3 The American chess players of Harvard, Yale and Columbia, who were defeated by the experts of Ox- ford and Cambridge, have at least one consolation.
