Before your' stump campaign ends ity will be out of mind, and then answer the NOW, MR. WELLS! N your speech at Teutonia Hall, Mr. Wells, on Thursday night, you said: “Now, my friends, I don’t know as theresis any great question you want to hear frpm, All of the issues have been talked over, and while they have not been talked over as they have been referred to in the papers, I can see nothing that re- quires any great discussion and that you care for.” Really now, Mr. Wells, do you believe that? people take so little interest in their local governmen.t' that all e hear you say that you were born, that you were in business in one place thirty-five years, that you tipple some and keep the finest liquors in your house, and that you not as near each other as some other parts? When you spoke on Thursday night the people expected you to tell' why you support the Supervisor ticket that runs with you, and why you stayed on the ticket after saying that you would get off and permanently retire from public life if Flint were not made a Supervisor? There are other issues upon which the people want to hear you, but these are issues you made yourself. You made them and abandoned them, and the people want to know why. There is a suspicion that the influence that change.d your position is one that they do not wish to put in control of the city by your election. that influence could induce you to surrender what you highly call your “rights,” the people fear it can also induce you to surrender their rights. Do you see it, Mr. Wells? By way of answer to this question which the people ask, in your speech on Thurs- “I can say to you that all I have ever done for myself I have done Do you think that is an answer? Has any one said that you did not do for yourself in that vicinity? Has any one accused you of doing something in any other vicinity? Have you been accused of not doing anything for yourself in that vicin- as an issue to your tipple, your O. P. S.at home, your large house up the avenue, and the distance of one end of the city from the other end, as if anybody had required you to prove that the two ends of the city are not to. gether, like the nose and tail of a sleeping pussy cat? The unanswered questions of the people still haunted you on Thursday night, and while they were ringing in your ears you said: “I can say further to you, my friends, there is none of you but what is just as likely, whose prospects are just as good of your being wealthy and being Mayor of this city, as'I was when I was of your age.” Why do you make such an assault on the English language and call it an answer? Why stir up such a riot and knockdown between the innocent parts of speech, and set the hand of adverb against adverb, and put nouns and pronouns, heretofore of good reputation, in places where they don’t belong, and call it an answer? How do you know but you were speaking to some man who wants to be Mayor? Why cut down the verdure of his ambition with a killing frost by telling him his chance is as good as yours, when yours is not good at all? In a second speech the same evening the unanswered interrogation point hung over your head and you said, “My friends, I don’t think I should talk any longer this Really, Mr. Wells, you might have taken five minutes in which to answer You might have told what wonder-worker it was who you didn’t -do business, and where you don’t own a large house up the avenue, and that is not far from the other end of the city, w “ Do you really- believe that the they care is to avenue, and that some parts of the town are If were as scarlet in your eyes and washed it won’t you speak .in some “vicinity” where here all these issues of time, space and local- questions the people ask and tell them what THE SCHMITZ VOTE. they want to hear? OLITICIANS are figuring anxiously as to P whether the Schmitz vote on election day will draw more largely from the Republican or from the Democratic party. At the beginning of the campaign it was conceded on all sides that the votes of union workingmen would be divided, that Schmitz would receive a portion and that Wells and Tobin would each recéive a part. The Schmitz managers now claim that their strength has increased among the unionist. vote, but they are not able to point to any recruits from outside of the union ranks. When Schmitz began his canvass his forces were divided about equally between Democrats and Re- publicans. The Tobin managers have made a deter- mined and aggressive fight in the Schmitz districts to bring the Democratic forces of Schmitz back to their party standard and have met with very considerable On the contrary, the Republican managers, through incompetent leadership and other causes, made absolutely no effort to win back those Repub- licans who had joined the Schmitz party. The result is that at this time the Schmitz forces are at least two-thirds Republican. This being the case, if any considerable number of Republicans should vote for Tobin there cannot be the faintest doubt that he will have an overwhelming majority on election day. Whatever else be doubtful as to the outlook, it must be conceded that Tobin and Wells are not run- ning neck and neck. -Either one is bound to get the wavering vote that is opposed to Schmitz.. Which- ever one of the two receives this wavering vote is bound to lead tlte other by a very large majority. Tobin has made the most aggressive fight. He has addressed six times as many meetings as Wells and has been most enthusiastically received at all of them. He has conducted an active personal canvass in the daytime for the last three weeks, meeting personally at least two thousand people each day, and addressing more than that number every night.- Wells, on the contrary, began his canvass in the districts just one week ago. He has addressed but one-sixth of the number of public meetings that Tobin has, and they have not been as well attended. He has made no personal canvass of voters in the daytime. The reé- sult is that the wavering voters are beginning to see that Tobin is largely in the lead over Wells, and for that reason alone in their anxiety to' beat Schmitz they are flocking to Tobin’s standard. N sz Our Eastern friends are now excited over the an- nouncement from London that there will soon visit New York a “mysterious oriental Prince,” whose proper title and dwelling-place are unknown, but who has money to burn and style enough to make the burning glow like 2 bonfire. He entered London un- announced, engaged twenty-three rooms in one of the finest hotels in the city, brought with him a splen- did retinue, including musicians and dancing . girls, lived in ostentatious seclusion, and departed as he came, leaving nothing behind him except a report that he is headed for America. success. One of the features of the municipal campaign in New York is the publication of a circular letter is- sued to the Tammany office-holders asking for con- tributions to the campaign fund and saying: “We as- sure you that every dollar that comes into our hands can be made payable to Richard Croker, chairman of the finance committee.” The honesty and economy with which Croker handles money is well understood. It was by the practice of such virtues that he became so rich he cah keep a racing stable in England and his son can pay $1000 for a bull pup. From the vehemence with which both Turkey and Bulgaria deny any responsibility for the kidnaping of Miss Stone it seems there must be a very exten- sive bit of neutral territory between the two countries | in that particular neck of the woods. will be honestly and economically expended. Checks 1 | IF SCEMITZ SHOULD BE ELECTED : MAYOR. UPPOSE that by a temporary loss of reason the S good people of this city should elect Schmitz Mayor, who would bi appointed Chief of Po- ! lice? Who would be appointed Police Commission- ers? Would these officials be appointed from his own camp exclusively, just as the Labor Union ticket is composed of labor unjon men exclusively? It'is rea- sonable to suppose that such would be his policy. What, then, if Michael Casey, the walking delegate of the Teamsters’ Union, should be appointed Chief of Police, and Andrew Furuseth ‘and his associates to the Police Commission? Do our law-abiding citizens contemplate this possibility with equanimity? e ——— URBAN POPULATIONS. R. ERNEST HASSE, a German economist, D noted for his study of cities, has, for the pur- pose of establishing the true limits of urban populations, laid down a rule which will doubtless be generally adopted by economic writers. He notes that it is useless to rely upon corporation lines as the boundaries of cities when their populations are under consideration, for in many communities the popula- tion has spread out beyond those lines, and the dwellers in the outlying districts are really living in- der urban conditions as'much as those within the city limits. For the purpose of establishing a genui&lc division between the urban and the non-urban residents of a given community Dr. Hasse begins with the center of population and around that area draws concentric circles of varying diameters. He continues to in- scribe one area after another in these rings until he reaches a ring in which the average density of popu- lation falls to the ievel of that of the province in which the city is situated. The application of his method to the city of Vienna is given as an illustra- tion of its working. Around the center of that city the doctor inscribed a circle one kilometer in diame- ter; then another circle a kilometer distant from the first, and so on until within the fifteenth kilometric ring he found a population whose density was only fifty-nine persons to the square kilometer. That den- sity is about the same as that of the whole province of Lower Austria in which Vienna is situated, and according to the Hasse rule all persons living within the first fourteen circles are urban, while those in the fifteenth and beyond it are rural. Should that rule be applied here San Francisco’s population would irclude all of Oakland and Berkeley and Alameda. We are thus entitled to a much larger metropolitan rank than we now hold. Many other cities in the United States are similarly situated, for it is not always that corporation lines include all the urban population of the community. E—————— After an inspection of 33,000 designs the Australian Government has selected a flag for the #w nation. It has a red field with the union jack displayed in the upper left-hand corner, a big six-pointed star to rep- resent Australia and her six provinces, and, finally, a number of other stars to represent the southern cross. It is a dandy flag. An intimate friend of the President writes to the Philadelphia Record that the correct pranuncfiation of the President’s name can be determined by the rhym- ing of these lines: “The office-seeker was in pain; no tongue can tell the woes he felt when told he need not call again to worry Mister Rose-e-velt.” Bryan manages to get his name in the papers once] in a while, and his Tatest notice has been due to the fact that he bought a short-horned heifer for $450; consequently the next outburst of bleating from the Bryan farm may be due not to the Colonel himself but to some other calf. 3 DUDLEY DUBOSE AND PILLSBURY'S BROWN HAT DIVIDE DAY'S HONOR§ +- TN THE ALAMEDA, CourTy JALL.

The amicus curiae said the band of Judge Noyes was to be found in all the positions Frost assumed while n Nome. and his cross-examination was directed toward to establishing this fact.

SCENE IN COURT.WHILE DUDLEY DUBOSE, FRESH FROM LUXURIOUS QUARTERS IN THE ALAMEDA COUNTY JAIL, WAS TELLING OF THE VALUE OF THE KESTIMONY THAT THE OLD BROWN HATOF E. | 8. PILLSBURY FREQUENTLY CONTAINED. - STIFF brown hat and a prisoner furnished. the amusement and life in the Nome contempt proceed- ings yesterday before Judge dea- cock. The hat belongs to E. 8. Pillsbury, amicus curiae, and the prisoner is Dudley Dubose. Judging from the amount of testimony the hat has con- tained it ought to be introduced in evi- dence. Dubose was introduced. Fresh from a lunch of seven courses and three ices served by Oakland's pre- mier chief, Dudley Dubose left the Ala- meda County Jail to go upon the stand in behalf of the respondent’s side of the case. When he arrived the attorneys joked about taking him away from his home and hoped he suffered no incon- venience. Dubose smiled in a wan sort of way, informing the jesters that he was only too ready to leave his pleasant home | at any time. The trip was hardly worth the taking— to anybody save Dubose, who enjoyed the ride on the bay and the mild excitement that prevailed in the courtroom. The re- spondent's attorneys painfully went through certain portions of Hume's tes- timony, in which Dubese and certain con- versatios between . various parties were mentioned. Dubose’s testimony in sev- eral instances runs counter to Hume's statement. If Dubose was not worked hard Pills- bury’s hat was. The amicus curiae sits in the jury box with his hat on an ad- joining “chair. Behind him sit Samuel Knight and “Billy” Metson, the terror of Nome gun fighters. They have had Ncme affairs to eat, drink and sleep on for the last year and are full of sugges- tions to the cross-examiner. In order not to disturb the court they write out the flitting idea and pass it into the Eat. Eighty-three inscribed, and hatted ideas have so far gone into the record. When Pillsbury runs out of questions the hat comes into the case. The attorneys have begun to war in carnest. Bellicose attitudes, sharp words and thundering voices are consid- ered very proper. The sarcasm consumes itself, however, for the amicus curiae will not mix in and the respondents’ attor- neys quit with ‘“some secret satisfaction’ afier the ‘witriess has apswered. the. ir- relevant, incompetent, immaterial otherwise objectionable question. At_the opening of the morning session Mr. Pillsbury continued his cross-examin- ation of Witness C. A. S. Frost. His questions were directed to Frost's actions &nd knowledge of events on the day that McKenzie was arrested. The whole story of the forceful possession was threshed over.

I sent for my wife and was out of funds.” Pillsbury then tried to force the wit- ness to explain why he went to McKenzie and not to others. The ‘witness bristled and told Pillsbury that he might even ask him for a loan of $10 if they were acquainted. “Possibly,” sald Judge McLaughlin. Then the amicus curiae went back to the bank, the writs of supersedeas and that October day when McKenzie was ar- cested. Frost replied that he did not talk with Judge Noyes or District Attor- e vy s e ney Wood at any time concerning the writs. During the morning session when Frost was on the stand a letter was mentioned by the amicus curize which ex-Attorney General Griggs is supposed to have writ- ten to Judge Noyes in which Griggs com-~ mends the Judge for fine judicial work in Nome. Noyes was proud of this letter and showed it at Nome. | it_in evidence. ' The proceedings to-day will be confined to the redirect examination of C. A. S. Frost and the cross-examination of Dubose.
