B. Edson on the List of Candidates for Governor. Republicans of Forty-First District Organize for Clean Politics. E. B. Edson of Gazelle, who was elect- ed Railroad Commissioner on the Repub- lican ticket in November, 1898, would cheerfully accept the honor of party leadership in the next State campaign. Rumors to the effect that Governor Gage has all the plans laid for securing the re- nomination do not in the least disturb Mr. Edson. Word comes from Gazelle | and other enchanting localities in North- ern California that the people want Mr. Edson for Governor, and the Rallroad Commissioner is convinced that the farm- ers of the north are sincere in their ex- pression of confidence in his capacity for leadership. Frequent soundings to ascer- tain the depth of public sentiment have been made by the friends of the aspiring Commissioner, and they advise him to go ahead. Mr. Edson is described as a statesman He is rich and practically of Northern said to be plain, The farmers like a Governor.” Wise men of the Re- publican party do not encourage the sug- gestion of conductipg the next campaign on the shape of the candidate. but form will surely count for something. Com- missioner Edson's worldly wealth is said to consist of “grain, landed possessions and live stock.” Looking Over His Fences. Governor Gage is in the south looking over his fences. A break at Los Angeles like that in Sacramento which happened to let out Jack Wright would upset Gage's calculations. The fact is already foreshadowed {hat Muir cannot take any time from railrcad business to assist In sending a solid delegation for Gage from Los Angeles County to the next Repub- lican State Convention. There is_a deal of hard work ahead for Walter Parker, H. Z. Osborne and Al Lindley. It will be interesting to note what they can accom- plish without the assistance of the Southern Pacific.

MKINLEY SLEEPY BETTER One Favorable Circum- stance Develops in Illness. WASHINGTON, June 6.—The President to-night continues hopeful of the outcome of Mrs. McKinley's illness. More than this cannot be sald. There has been no setback during the day, but likewise no gain. One favorable circumstance is that Mrs. McKinley continues to obtain more sleep than she was able to get in the earlier stages of her illness, and to-night rested fairly comfortable. The President to-day, through Secretary Cortelyou, formally notified the Buffalo Exposition management that he would not be able to attend the exposition on the 13th inst., as had been planned, but added that he hoped to be able to do so at some later date that may be desig- nated. At the White House to-night every- thing was unusually quiet. There were no callers who saw the President, with the exception_of Surgeon General Sternberg and Dr. Rixey. The former stayed but a few minutes. Mrs. Dawes made her customary call of a few minutes. Gen- eral Corbin stopped by on the way from the War Department, but merely left his card ard made an inquiry at the door as to Mrs. McKinley’'s condition. The Presi- dent spent an hour driving this afternoon, being accompanied by Secretary Hunt of Porto Rico. Dr. Rixey left the White House at 10 o'clock to-night after an hour and a half sp;&n in attendance on Mrs. McKinley. He said: “There is no material change in Mrs. McKinley's condition. She remains the same as mentioned in our bulletin of this morning.” In answer to specific inquiries he replied that he could not say there had not been any perceptible improvement whatever during the day.

The commandant is a tall and commanding man, speaking English with ease and proudly proclaims himself as a “typlcal son of the veldt.” Born near Johannesberg, he was educated in the schools of the Boer republic and learned English by association with the British subjects residing in the Transvaal. Commandant Krige is the guest of Mr. and Mrs. L. Cnopnis- at the Hotel Kancva and will remain in San Francisco for a few days. Last evening he was wel- comed at the meeting of the Holland So- clety of Wilhelmina, held at 539% Cali- fornia street. On entering the room Presi- den Van der Kamp and the members pres- ent greeted the Boer officer by singing the national anthem of the Netherlands, President Van der Klmg then addressed the ex-soldier in the utch language, Krige responding in the same tongue.

The daring burglar who robbed a number of houses in the Western Addi- tlon during the past two weeks and who the police thought had left for parts unknown is again at work. Early Wednesday morning he broke into the residence of Rabbi Jacob Nieto, at 1719 Bush street, and got away with a lot of silverware valued at $500. It is supposed that he entered the house through the rear window. The silver- ware was stored in the dining-room, and the burglar had little trouble in find- ing it. The family was not awakened by the burglar, and it was not until morning that the crime was discovered. Captain Seymour was immediately no- tified and he detailed Detectives Dinan, ‘Wren and Ed Gibson to make an inves- tigation. Several other houses in the immediate vicinity of the Nieto residence were also entered and valuable silverware stolen. Sunday night_a burglar broke into the residence of Joseph Kahn at 1206 Geary street by boring a hole in the front door and then forcing back the latch with a lece of wire. Going to the dining-room e flacked up the silverware, but before he had a chance to get away with it he was was frightened off by the servant girl, who was awakened by him. Chief Sullivan last night had about fifty of his men dressed in citizen clothes patrolling the streets in the vi- cinity of the numerous burglaries. PENNSYLVANIA SYSTEM of Rall- ways.

I am an escaped prisoner of war and am in America to study the farming conditions and also to tell the people of :ha true condition of affairs in my coun- ry. “Myself and thousands of other Boers have no prejudice against the English peo- ple. The pecple of England did not force the war on us. It was the work of Cham- berlain and the gambling element in South Africa. If the negotiations had been held with Lord Salisbury instead of Chamber- lain we would have had no fighting, Chamberlain was- one of the gang of gamblers and his mind was made up years ago to despoil us of our country. Are Not Religious Fanatics. ‘“We have been called religious fanatics, but we are not. The old Boers may cling to traditions, but the young generation is progressive. There have been grievances in the Transvaal suffered by the English, but those grievances could have been set- tled without bloodshed. It may sound absurd, but we will win our independence witkin a year. We do not look for foreign intervention. The Engiish themselves are keeping us supplied with arms and am- munition. Scarcely a week passes but one of their supply trains is captured by our men. The English people and the English soldiers are tired of the war and its burden of expense. The people of Eng- lan1 will themselves terminate the war and we will secure our independence. That is ali that is left for us. Our homes, farms, cattle and property ,have been destroyed and our families captured and sent to far-away prisons. The stories pub- lished by the English are absurd. They told of Wessels and Koch being shot by one of our generals while acting as peace envoys. Both of these men are alive and wer2 so reported In recent cables of the British themselves. We have lost under 3000 men killed in the whole war and per- haps 9000 wounded, the majority recover- ing to again bear arms. We have to-day about 15,000 men under arms and they will fight to the end. England. has 18,000 pris- oners, of which number 8000 were soldiers, Secretary Scott of the Chamber of Com- merce has received official notice of the propesed visit of the Rivers and Harbors Committee of the House of Representa- tives to San Francisco and arrangements are being perfected to make the stay of the visitors as pleasant as possible. The letter from Chairman Burton to Secretary Scott, giving the itinerary and personnel of the Congressional party, is as follows: Your letter of the 25th inst. is at hand. I take it, hereafter that In arrangements per- taining to San Francisco I 'shall communi- cate with you. It is impossible to fix the exact dates of our itinerary. It is probable that we shall reach San Francisco late in the afternoon of Tuesday, June 15, and remain until the afternoon train on Sunday, which goes to Stockton. This would enable us to ex- amine San Francisco harbor, Oakland and Vallefjo from San FErancisco; also, _Alviso Slough from San Francisco. There will prob- ably be thirty-four members in the party, as follows: Hon, Theodore E. Burton (chalr- man), Ohio; Hon. Walter Reeves and wife, Illinois; Hon. Roswell P.
