THE IMPORTANCE OF PRIMARIES Y the advisory committee of the®Republican B Primary League there has been adopted a series of resolutions indorsing the objects and pur- poses of the league and commending “the faithful and bonest work thus far carried on by its members.” The work has been that of awakening public interest in the approaching primary elections and uniting and organizing the various elements of the Republican party for the campaign that is to come. ng the importance of the immediate issue, re: the primary elections are in reality the func vi important basis of every project making for good government, it is heartily to be hoped that all good citizens of every party will do their utmost toward calling out as large a vote as possible at the ensuing p: ry elections, which are now, by force of a beneficent law governing primary elections, surrounded by the same safeguards and securities against frauds &nd violence as are regular elections. It is only by the epathy of the grea good citizens that the ever- vigilant boss r rule and ruin our city govern- ment. As the day fixed by law for the next primary election, namely, August 13, 1901, has now on the petition of the Republican Primary League been declared a legal holiday, there is no justifying reason for the failure of any good citizen to do his share, large or small, in secur- ing a representative vote at said primary election. No intelligent citizen will be inclined to deny any of the propositions embodied in that statement. Primary elections are indeed the fundamental and important basis of every project making for good government. From them proceed the delegates who are to draw up the platform of party pledges and nominate its candi- dates. Unless the delegates be animated by an earnest desire for good government they will readily fall under control of professional politicians, and boss domina- tion will result. In times past the extent to which fraud was possible at the primaries afforded some excuse for good men in refusing to take part in them, but since the adoption of the law assuring honest clections at the primaries that excuse is no longer valid. Under existing condi- tions the bosses can triumph only when the better ele- ments of the party are apathetic. If all genuine Repub- licans will register and go to the polls on election day those pretending schemers who have acted as Repub- licans only fof the sake of spoils will be defeated all along the line. It is to be borne in mind that the issues before the people in the contest are not slight. As the resolu- tions of the advisory committee say: “The primary election being held to select delegates to a convention which will nominate = Mayor, Board of Supervisors and all municipal officers is of prime importance to every citizen who favors a strong, clean and sound municipal administration.” The Primary League stands for no faction; nor is it for or against any particular candidate. Its object is to enlist public interest in the primaries and the elec- tion, and to organize the forces of the Republican party for the establishmient and maintenance of an honest and efficient city government. It is, therefore, an organization which can rightly claim the support of every genuine Republican. Its work with respect” to the primaries, however, is not for the party only but for the whole community. All good citizens should register and get ready for the primary elec- tions, no matter to which party they belong. Under the new law there is a chance for all parties to put their best men in the field, and it is desirable they should do so. Apathy at this juncture is a lack of civic patriotism. We do not hear much of the Buffalo Exposition, but it appears to be doing well and the midway annex is thriving. THE GLORIOUS FOURTH.. NCE more the people of the United States O are called upon to celebrate the anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. The man- ner of the celebration will be that which has come down to us from the days of the fathers of the repub- lic. Throughout the land the people will to-day respond to the words of the poet: Go, ring the bells and fire the guns And fling the starry banners out; Shout *“Freedom” till your lisping ones Give back their cradie shout. In an especial sense the day has become the great holiday of the American boy. It is his day of freedom with a full right to wave banners, beat ‘drums, sound trumpets and explode crackers and roman candles to his heart’s content. This element in the celebration gives it an enthusiam that never grows old. It remains immortaily young with the youth of the land, and will be as joyously and as ndisily hailed to-day as when it was first greeted by the boys of the brave days of old. While there has been no change in the celebration of the day by the boys there has been considerable | change in the tone and temper of the oratory which forms so important a feature in the celebration of adults. In the early days Fourth of July oratory was such an exuberant outburst of perfervid rhetoric that it became something of a jest even among the most patriotic. Only now and then did some Webster, Everett or Prentiss deliver a Fourth of July oration that men delighted not only to hear but to read. In our time that early fervor is well nigh gone. The orators who hold the attention of the American people to-day will be expected to deal with some of the more serious problems and issues that confront the nation. Instead of the glowing rhetoric and flowery phrases of the former oratory there will be earnest thought, and it is a safe prediction that from many of the speakers there will come almost as much of warning as of glori- fication. 3 The change in the style of oratory corresponds with a change in the dignity and responsibility of the people. The republic has now become the foremost nation of this age, and is unquestionably the mightiest that ever existed. It holds within its domain the largest extent of fertile land that was ever included in one country, whether republic or empire; it has in its population a larger number of energetic, educated, law- abiding men than ever before sustained any govern- ment, and its power for industry, for commerce or for war is so vast that it could withstand the assaults of all | other nations combined. In the deep conscicusness of this national power and magnitude, the American people no longer feel a desire for oratorical exaggeration. sobered by the responsibilities of greatness. republic no longer stands alone. QOur flag flies over islands in both the Eastern and the Western Indies. Our troops have served as allies of those of European nations in the war in China. We have become a world power and must adopt a world policy having obliga- tions which we must fulfill as well as rights which we | must maintain. It is not our foreign relations only that have changed. Within the republic itself there are growing up many problems that force themselves upon public attention and compel the consideration of thoughtful men. These come naturally to the mind whenever a ness of the country. Never before in all human history has there been a naticn that rose so quickly and so whose prospects at home or abroad are so gratifying to the ardent patriot. But the very brightness of all that is around us serves but to show more clearly how much danger there is that we may become intoxicated by empire or by commercialism, and, for the sake of wealth or power, barter away our ancient heritage of peace and freedom. When full consideration has been given to all the serious aspects of the situation of the people or of the nation; the healthful thinker will find no cause for doubting the future grandeur of the republic or the happiness of those who live beneath its flag. The ideals of liberty and law expressed in the great declar- ation and embodied in the constitution hold the first place in the minds of American youth as well as in the minds of their fathers. With each return of this hol- iday the people dedicate themselves anew to the im- mortal principles which have come down to us from the men of 1776. So it is with us to-day, and so it will be with true Americans for all time to come. There may be times of doubt, times of mistakes and times of wrongs, but always the common sense and patriot- ism of the majority will suffice to rectify the course of the nation and make sure that a government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the face of the earth. The most cheerful optimist of the country is an un- known man whom a Philadelphia reporter met on one of the hottest days of the season, and who, when told of the number of sunstrokes and prostrations in the city, said: “This is good weather for corn.” SEARCHING FOR AN ISSUE. AVING wearied their brains in vain in search- H ing for a Moses to lead them out of the Egyp- tian darkness in which they are wandering, the Democratic organs and orators who find it necessary to do something to keep themselves before the public are now trying to find a new issue. They repeat to one another with great unction the sententious wis- dom that the issue finds the man, and accordingly they conclude that all they have to do is to either discover an issue or make one. The recent declarations of certain Republicans in Congress and out of it in favor of tariff revision have given great hopes to the issue hunters. Many of them are eager now to start another free trade agitation. The Washington Post has encouraged the new craze greatly by saying: We can conceive of no happler fortune for the some- what demoralized and disheartened Democracy than to be endowed with the campaign thunder, the political capital that will be in its hand if Congress adjourns without having put away the flagrant abuses that are sheltered behind some of the schedules of the farift of 1897. That statement has given high hopes to a number of Southern Democrats who have never liked Bryan nor free silver nor Populism. - They believe they see in the tariff a chance to win back the Federal offices for which they yearn. They have come to the conclusion that the Republican party can never revise the tariff. One of them says: “The strength of the trust in- trenchments behind the Republican guns forbids any revision at Republican hands, such as will be satis- factory to the people.” In that hope some of the seekers after new issues are content to rest. They | have begun to _cry out for tariff reform, and are wait- | ing to see what sort of a man that issue will bring to the front. All Democratic papers, however, are not enamored of a tariff fight. A good many of them remember what resulted from tariff tinkering before, and are not will- ing to try the experiment again. Some of that class We have become | We are | |aware that with our increased wealth and strength | there have come increased duties to the world. Our | review is made of the advancing prosperity and great- | peacefully to the highest rank; nor is there one | .believg in waiting for an issue to come along and offer Vitself instead of trying to make one by a forcing | process. | While those various efforts to find a new issue and anew man are going on Bryan watches the game | closely and occasionally reminds the seekers that they | must follow his rules. He-has recently said: The Democratic party stands for definite, positive pripciples, and unless I mistake the sentiments of the masses the voters will insist upon adhering to these principles, in spite of the threats of reorganizers. Those who argue from the standpoint of expediency will not have influence with the voters, because no one can say what is expedient. We may deserve to win and yet lose, but it still remains that to deserve to win Is the surest road to success. Of the accuracy of those statements there can be no doubt. Democracy stands for certain positive prin- ciples, and among them are free trade and free silver, and Bryan intends to hold the party to the platform. | Whether he can succeed or not may be doubtful, but the Hon. Champ Clark of Missouri, who has been | traveling extensively through the country, has recent- |ly summed up the result of his political observations by saying: | As for Willlam Jennings Bryan, he will efther be | nominated three years hence by the Democratic Na- | tional Convention or he will dictate the name of the man who will be ncminated. He is young enough to run at seven differcnt Presidential elections. I really expect to see him elected to the Presidency. That is a fact which the Democratic seekers will | have to face. The chances are that when the election year is at hand the objects of their search will still be | undiscovered, and they will have to take the old plat- | form and either the old leader or some man he may name. e ——————— —— The deadlock among the powers on the Chinese in- | dcn:mily question may yet afford the high court of nations a chance to show that it holds the key. T T SPECIAL WEATHER . REPORTS. | NOTABLE extension and improvement has | A beer: made in the reports issued by the local i ; weather bureau. It consists in what is called a | "spgcml ‘dai>]y fruit service” and contains reports from | various fruit centers giving the maximum and mini- mum temperature for the day, the direction of the wind, the state of the weather and the amount of pre- cipitation, with additional information concerning the | progress of harvesting fruit. Thus a specimen report. | of yesterday was: San Jose—Maximum temperature, “71; minimum, 55; direction of wind, northwest; state | of the weather, clear; precipitation, .00. An accom- | panying note was to the effect: “Strong northwest wind; picking apricots in the foothills; drying will be- gin in ten days.” These reports come from fruit centers generally and thus give information from many points not included in the regular weather reports. Their value will, of course, be considerable, as they will enable dealers to follow accurately the rrogress of fruit harvesting and to know under what weather conditions the fruit is be- ing picked. They will also enable the fruit men of any | locality to know the conditions which prevail else- | where. ‘ The extension of the service thus made might be and demand for labor in the orchards of any particular | district. There are many persons looking for work who might readily obtain it in the orchards and vine- yards if they knew exactly where to go. It may be that there are insuperable objections to making that | addition to the reports that are now being obtained, but, if so, it will be worth while for the officials of the | bureau to bear it in mind and consider whether they | may not undertake it later on. What has been done will be hailed with satisfaction throughout the State. It is an important extension of the service rendered to the public by the bureau, and it is to be hoped it will not only be permanent but will | grow and expand with the years. e There is now talk of the organization of an interna- tional salt trust and we may soon hear that the codfish industry has been cinched. MORE MONEY NEEDED. ROM the committee in charge of the work of preparing for the convention of the Epworth League there has been issued an appeal for addi- work. At the time this city was fixed upon as the place for holding the convention it was agreed by the representatives of San Francisco that the sum of $25,000 should be raised to defray expenses. Prepara- tions have been made on that basis and they cannot be changed. It appears that up to this time only $14,000 has been subscribed. It will be seen there is urgent need for prompt subfcriptions. This js a good day to think the matter over and decide how much you can give. The Epworth League is one of the largest organizations of its kind in the world. Tt represents character, religion and youth. Its members are just the kind of people we wish to have interested in California. Many thousands of them will attend the convention, and it will be well worth our while to give them the kind of entertainment which has made us famous for hospitality. San Francisco cannot afford to fail in this under- taking. The convention will attract the attention of the whole United States, for the delegates are to come from all sections. We wish these bright young men and young women to be pleased with our city so that they will carry to their homes good reports of us, To that end everybody should contribute. I each gives a little no one need give much. Now that Bryan is off on his vacation, talking in- stead of writing, the Commoner shows marked evi- dences of improvement. e~ —r— N of due care to prevent an outbreak of fire resulting from the use of fireworks and fire- BEWARE OF FIRES. crackers in the celebration of the day. Carefulness will cost nothing, but carelessness may cost an enor- mous sum. It has many times occurred in these United States that fires entailing a loss running into the mill- ions were caused by a firecracker starting a blaze that at first could have been extinguished in a moment and almost without exertion. The subject is not one that requires much exhorta- tion. It is well known that there will be a great many firecrackers exploded in all parts of the city during the day and the evening. In thousands of instances the papers of the exploded crackers, still burning with slow fires, will be blown about by the winds and may be carried into almost any yard or alley way. If then there be left about the city any rubbish piles contain- ing inflammable material or bits of pap@r scattered about the yards or alley ways, there will be danger of fire. It will not be difficult for each householder and property owner to see to it that no easily ignited sub- stance is left on his property within reach of explod- ing crackers. To that duty he should give his atten- tion before starting upon the celebration of the day..

Ball, in The Independent, says: “The very largest city that this earth has ever known would be altogether too small to be visible to a being dwelling on the planet Mars, even if that being were endeavoring to see it with a telescope as powerful as the greatest and most perfect instrument in any observatory on this globe. e “If the whole extent of Lake Superior was covered with petroleum, and if that petroleum was set on fire, then I think we may admit that -an inhabitant of Mars who was furnished with a telescope as good as that which Percival Lowell | uses at Flagstaff might be able to see that something had happened. But we must not suppose that the mighty con- flagration would appear to the Martian as a very conspicuous object. It would rather be a very small feature, but still I think it would not be beyond the reach of a practiced observer in that planet. On the other hand, if an area the size of Lake Superior on Mars was to be | flooded with petroleum and that pétro- leum was to be kindled, we should ex- pect to witness the event from here not as a great and striking conflagration, but as a tiny little point of just discernible object, and the conflagration would not light. The disk of Mars is not a large object, and the conflagration would not extend over the three-hundredth part of that disk. “It is sufficlent to state these facts to show that the possibility of signaling to Mars is entirely beyond the power of human resources.” —_——— It is much easier to collect a crowd than a dollar for chari e A CHANCE TO SMILE.
