THE DUTY OF REGISTRATION, B UT a short time remains for those belated citi- zens who have not yet registered to get their names on the great roll and thus secure their right to vote on election day. Registration closes on the 24th of this month. After that the loiterers will find it too late to do anything further than form a “kickers’ club” and proceed to kick one another. It should not be necessary to urge upon intelligent men the duty of registration. Upon the votes of the people depends the majntenance of good government, and upon good government depend pube and pri- vate prosperity to-a very large ‘extent. No private obligation is more binding upon 2 citizen than poli- tical duty under our form of government. Unless the better class of people go to tHe polls and vote right we shall surely have a government by the spoilsmen of politics, and then not only will gov- ernmental administration suffer, but many a private industry as well. There are abundant evidences to show that the campaign is going to be much more lively than was expected a short time ago. The apathy that marked the people has passed away, and from now on popu- lar interest in the contest will increase. It is gratify- ing that it is so. Every sincere well-wisher of the State desires there should be a full vote. The most earnest Republican cannot desire a victory obtained by reason of indifference on the part of the opposi- tion. The desire is for a full vote of both parties, so that the victory may truly express the sentiment of the whole people of the State, For that reason The Call urges registration by the citizens generally, Democrats as well as Republicans. Every man who possesses the qualifications of a voter should have sufficient public spirit and patriotism to desire to vote. He ought to be interested in the con- test and take sides in it. Those, therefore, who have not yet registered should do so. California expects every qualified voter to do his duty, and his duty is to register and to vote—and vote right.

This may perhaps be one of those innovations which some peo- ple probably like but which no one respects, King Edward has taken tea with Carnegie. The American plutocrat is credited with the rare pri ilege of being a man of action and 2 man of reflection at once. If he is he must have done an awful amount of thinking when the King called. . An American has secured possession of Battle Abbey under lease and has announced that he will close the historic building as a show place. And still they say we have no respect for the relics of our fore- fathers. It is claimed for Rios, the Filipino revolutionist, that he is 2 direct descendant of God. This is no ar- gument, however, that he is anxious to flirt with an American buliet which may-be directed toward his in- teresting person. London officials have sent a special request to a Kansa; City expert to teach them how to fight fire with success. And still it is said that our English cousins are rebelling against everything Yankee. A man professing to be a2 member of the hideous society of the Mafia was arrested the other day in Oakland. This profession seems to establish the fel- low’s standing as a criminal idiot.

The memory runs readily back to the hush and gloom of that day. The free institutions of the republic seemed to have been smitten and jarred by the blow, and all the people felt a sense of personal loss and sorrow. The world paused for a space, and men in far lands for a moment met us in the spirit of the hour, and human kinship was certified by a feeling that belted the planet. Others may have forgotten, but Americans have not. The Governor of Ohio has proclaimed a special observance of this first anniversary of the closing of a great career that gilds that State with imperishable honor. The countrymen of the great President should not leave the people of his own State to stand alone in' honoring his memory. The anniversary falls on Sunday, the day on which men listen to the lessons:that may be found in great and good examples, and it is peculiarly appropriate that, throughout the Union, all should observe in some solemn and impressive manner an event that knit them together in the bonds of brotherhood. Formal proclamation there may not be, nor should the people need )‘ McKinley had a warm heart for California and a safe place in the warm hearts of our people. What we do or omit will no longer affect him. His race is run, his duty accomplished. No more can his voice plead for justice nor his feet lead the way to further achievements. He rests from his labors and his works do follow him. But it is still the privilege of the dead to impress the living by example, and for our own and the sake of our children, we should in some form, in the usual congregation of the people, show forth that our gratitude has not perished, that the honor to which we gave expression before the face of the living endures, faithfully, and goes forth in memory of the dead. We are sure that the busy people need only this reminder of the day and its meaning, to enter into all the spirit of its suggestion, and unselfishly honor him who can no longer lead them, nor reward them, nor praise them, for he has ence and has entered into rest eternal. gone from their pres- “ [ 1 oo 8w PARTY PRETENDERS. observer of current palitical events does not fail to see that the organs of the push, in the Republican party, have the cold nose. They A are alert to see signs of weakness in the Republican candidate doubts the ticket. They scream about the constitution % the State Committee. By insinuation and innuendo they seek to weaken the candidate and the cause. One of these organs has already jumped the fence and is among the staff of the enemy directing operations. Meantime the regular organization is skillfully pre- paring for battle and victory. No man in California knows more about the politics of the State than The high place and influence of John A, Britton, on the committee brings to it the confidence of business men and the sympathy of the solid interests of the State. The presence in its councils of the brother of Mayor Schmitz is not an inconsequential indication that labor is content with the candidate, and so, all along the line, are signs of activity and organization representing and partici- pated in by all the concordant elements that make up the party of sound money, protection and pros- perity. The enthusiasm for the candidate for Governor has not been exceeded in this part of the State for twenty years. The Republicans of Central and North- ern California have supported, with great cordiality, from the south and for Governor. They express this section, and not before potent in the State coun- cils of the party, why should they not now show this greater enthusiasm for a Northern Californian can- didate who has been in' the public eye and the party harness for a decade and has borne well the scrutiny that scans such a man? There is«no call for the croaking of the push. Yet its organs take refuge in signs and tokens; they re- sort to scrcery and soothsaying. They discover that the people run the politics of California on the ride and tie principle, and change saddles every other time. These Zadkiels set up their tin horoscopes and look at the planets and predict that which they wish to happen, the defeat of the party, for which they have no use when they cannot use it for purposes re- pugnant to every sense of honor. But the hosts are armed and marching. The Re- publican day came up like thunder out of Maine across the continent. The echo will run over the rivers and prairies, the forests and plains, until it meets the noise and great shouting, the broadsides and glad clamor with which the Republicans of Cali- fornia answer the explosion of victory in far-off Maine. The two States look upon the sea. They stand guard over American commerce, industry, pro- tection and prosperity, and lift their banners so high that they can be seen across a continent that has con- quested the financial and commercial supremacy of the world, under the policies of the party that spans the Union, with one foot on Maine and the other on California. The petty gossip and small whispers and insistent nagging of the push organs will about as much affect the result as a rotten apple on the track affects the speed of an overland limited. California knows her duty and girds up for its per- formance. The push can go play nickel-in-the- slot for its daily swipes, while the party it can neither rule nor ruin goes serenely forward in its task of seeing to the daily bread of the people, who have been lifted from famine to fullness by its wise policy and administration Returns from the gubernatorial election in Maine show conclusively that the Democrats have become so few in number as to threaten a complete disappear- ance. This tribute to the intelligence of the people of Maine is touching. It is a lesson for the historian. Afrumor comes across the sea that Croker’s dairy farm is a failure and he is losing money on his cows as well as on his racehorses, so it is probable he will have to return to New York and resume his old trade of milking the public. Eastern people are complaining that the whole summer was cold and rainy, but they may console themselves with the reflection that at the present price of coal they are not likely to have cause for complain- ing of a hot, dry winter. _— Senator Elkins is still waving a banner calling for the annexation of Cuba and it seems to be the com- pletest monopoly possessed by any statesman in the country. There must be times when the Senator feels mighty lonely. English societies, in solemn council assembled, have decided that the time is not yet ripe to grant women the ballot. This seems to settle the last hope we might have had to induce Mrs. Nation to leave the country. 3 The three Oakland ruffians who combine in them- selves the trade of assassin and footpad boast the pos- session of a “pull” They may discover some day that the “pull” they exercise is on the wrong end of the rope. % \ | | and postal departments. TR OUBLE IN MANCHURIA. HE Manchus have been the rulers of China T since the existing dynasty began. They have been exclusive in their ways. . Their intermar- riage with Chinese was forbidden until the recent de- cree of the Dowager Empress Tsi An removed the prohibition. The Manchus do not go abroad. The great dipiomatic representatives of the empire, the Marquis Tseng and Wu Ting Fang, were Chinese by birth. ‘The greatest man in the East, of any age, Li Hung Chang, was a Chinese. The Chinese patriots have long charged that there was intimate sympathy between their Manchu masters and the Russians. Certain it is that opposition to Russian occupation of Manchuria came from the Chinese and not from the Manchus. The treaty which would make that occupation permanent lacked only Li Hung Chang’s signature to be effectual, and the old man refused, though it is said that while on his deathbed he was violently importuned by Russian officers to sign. Russia agreed with the powers to vacate Manchuria within six months after signing the treaty that con- cluded the Boxer outbreak. The limit is long passed, and the Russian army is still in Manchuria. Now comes the news that the Russians are expelling all other foreigners from that province, and that this policy is specifically 2imed at British subjects em- ployed by the Chinese Government in the revenue At the same time Russian immigrants are crowding into the province in great numbers. of permanent Russian occupancy of Manchuria. There were Russian military posts, hospitals and towns wholly Russian. The administration was in Russian hands, and nowhere appeared any evidence of opposition on the part of the Manchus, It may well be that the Manchus felt in the Boxer revolutjon evidence of the decay of their power over the empire, and that this feeling was strengthened by the decrees giving all China a new ‘master, in Russia. directly challenge Great Britain by naming her sub- jects for expulsion unless the stake played for is great enough to warrant a defiance that may cause a war. The time is favorable for such a defiance. Great Britain is enfeebled by the cost and sacrifice of con- questing the South African republics, and she has thereby acquired a domain that, for the present, adds to her weakness and 1:0t to her strength. Adam Zad chooses his time wisely, if aggression is to be pushed. Russia has the greatest war chest in Europe. She has not felt the exhaustion of war since the Balkan campaign, and she has much to avenge because the treaty of Berlin cheated her out of the occupancy of Constantinople. The near future may witness a struggle in which England will grappl= with the leading powers of the Continent, and the stake will be the mastery of all Asia, provided England abandons, her policy of an mdependent China, with doors open'to the commerce of the world. If she appear simply as the supporter | of the autonomy of China her moral position will be impregnable, but this hard featured and material age will not give her muck credit for worldy wisdom. The nations will await with interest the attitude of the Chinese Government. The British subjects to be ex- pelled are the employes of that Government. At pres- ent the issue is betwcen the Czar and the Emperor. Will the Emperor let Russia dictate the employes in his civil service? If he do, the fact is established that Russia is already supreme in the affairs of China, If Chiga refuse it will indicate that she relies on the protection of Grear Britain, and this, again, will seem to prove that Great Britain dominates. Let us hope that the great question will be taken in hand by the diplomats and be settled before it gets to the War Ministers of the Governments concerned adjustment. The United States has no immediate interest in the matter. We want no part of China. Our inter- ests require a chance at the trade of all China, and will not be touched unless Russia should attempt to monopolize it wherever her army and navy can make her commerce exclusive. This country is abroad, not with great guns, but with a sample case filled with our wares, and all we ask is an equal opportunity and we undertake to outmake and undersell the world.. in its A female of the human species, convicted in Oak- land of having sold white girls into slavery, has been sentenced to six months’ imprisonment. This is one of the cases where perhaps justice would have been better served if the charge against the fiend had been fabricated to fit the offense. ——is Oakland authorities are making strenuous endea- vors to cut down the bills of physicians to the muni- cipality. This seems to be an unwarranted effort to cinch the general public to save the taxpayer.

Thirty bright and clever women, handsomely gowned, assembled at Sher- man, Clay & Co.’s hall yesterday for the opening session of their wit and humor club. Society was well represented at the gathering, and some of those present have been prominently identified with the Cen- tury, Sorosts and Forum clubs. | The pres- ident, Mrs. C. Mason Kinne, presided and all of the ladles present took an active part in the programme. The meeting was a most enthuslastic one and the ladies seemed to vie with one another in orig- | inal wit. Of the many stories told most ‘were distinctively marked with an orig- inality which was very refreshing and it is belleved that many of these lovers of wit were their own authors. Mrs. Bam- uel Backus was hostess of the day. It is the intention of the merhbers to hold a ladies’ jinks on the second Thursday of each month and the programme will In- clude many delicious stories interspersed with appropriate music. The permanent home of the club, decided upon yesterday, will be Utopla Hall, Sutter street and Grant avenue. Several matters of buginess were taken up at yes- terday’s session. Committees were appointed and new members were votsd in. Additional names are to be voted upon at the next meeting. The club membership includes fifty at present and, as the number is limited to 75, the list will soon be closed. The officers of the club are: Mrs. C. Mason Kinne, pres- ident; Mrs. W. P. Buckingham, vice president; Mrs. Erwin Cooper, secretary, and Mrs. Eugene D. Grace, treasurer. .« . o Mrs. Laura Bride Powers, J. J. Lermen and W. D. Shea, comprising a commit- tee appointed by the California Historie Landmarks League to visit the old San Antonio de Padua mission in Monterey, which was founded July 14, 1771, and was the third of the old missions built upen the King’s highway, have returned and will report at the league's next meeting to-morrow evening at Balboa Hall, Native Sons’ building. The eommittee mentioned reports that the timbers used in the construction of the £an Antonio de Padua Mission were of digger pire, a wood cut from the base of the Santa Lucias, and not as firm as the cedar which was employed by the pa- dres for finishing. Had the beams been of cedar or redwood, both of which grew high up on the mountain about thirty miles away, the league would not to-day have to restore the church. The cement that held the adobe walls together is to- day as firm as when they were reared, | and but for the rains that beat upon their unprotected parts where the roof has fallen would now be in perfect condition. But little disintegration has taken place, so thick are these ancient walls, A great pity it is that it is beyond the powers of the league to restore the re- WORKS BOARD CRITICIZES THE SUPERVISORS The Board of Public Works submittéd its annual report for the flscal year end- The report gives exhaustive data re- garding the operations of the various de- partments under control of the board. President Mendell takes a slap at the Board of Supervisors for passing ordi- nances granting special permits for the | crection of buildings and for other pur- poses which he alleges are in violation of | the general ordinances. Mendell hints | that the subject is of sufficient impor- tance to justify reference to the courts. The report shows that the sum of $507,230 was expended for maintenance of the de- partment, mainly for salaries, leaving a | Lalance of $408 66. The sum of $186,004 25 | was expended for improvements. The report contains the following: Permanent pavements were laid during the year, replacing old pavements for a length of 5.42 miles, Including 66% blocks and 54 street crossings. The outlay in permanent improve- ments on streets, including pavements finished and unfinished, was $2,105,580 64; for new buildings, $79,158 53; heating plant for City Hall, $16,000; total, $390,737 17. The amount used for new sewers was dis- tributed as follows: Sixth street, Harrison to | Bryant, $10,961; H street, Seventh to Tenth | avenue, $7875; Army street extension, $31,- 3456; H street, Fourteenth to Twelfth avenue, $29,093; Potrero avenue extension, $4000; total, 8 In the laboratory studies of paving material are in progress. The durability of oil asphaits, produced in considerable quantities in the State and used to some extent in street pave- ments, is of importance both to the city and to producers. There are two pavements of natural solid asphalt, cne on Grant avenue, and cne on Pine street, which promise the best results. There are also two ol asphalt pave- ments, one on Valencia street, and one om Polk street, both too recent to permit predic- tion as to their future. The allowance for the coming vear for repairs of streets and sewers is Inadequate. Necessary repairs upon bituminized roadways grow in proportion to the age of pavements. There are | twenty-five miles of ikis class of pavement, ten years or more old. Most of this pavement has reached the end of its usefulness. A proper yearly allowance now in order to maintain this class of streets in good condition may be stated at $20,600, and the eost may be expected to be- come greater each year. The total mileage of bituminized streets is 103 miles and 3622 feet. There has been much activity in building dur- ing the past year. The number of plans of buildings and additions approved during the year was 2004. The estimated cost of nmew buildings is $12,370,732.50, and of changes and additions in existing structures, $1,454,908, making a total of §13,825,640.50. The order of merit as arranged upon the civil service certified lists, and as determined by competitive examination, is not in general maintained among employes in performance of duties, It sometimes happens that No. 1 in merit as fixed by examination has a much lower rating In performance, and again a man low on | the certified list is found by reason of character and adaptability to e superior to men who stand much higher on the same list. The civil service has not been able as yet to undertake this inquiry as to appointees in this depart- ment and the official ratings as to merit remain as arranged on the certified lists. In the mean- time, and until ratings in actual merit in per- formance of work shall have been made, this department cannot work at its best. PERSONAL MENTION. J. W.

Adams, SUTRO ESTATE ISNOW ABLE TO PAY LEGACIES Mrs. Dr. Emma Merritt, executrix of the will of the late Adolph Sutro, an- nounced in Department Nine of the Su- perior Court, vesterday, that tkere plenty of money In the hands of executors to pay the legacies left by the is late philanthropist, notwithstanding that | for some time it has been rumored that | the estate was financially embarrassed. Mrs. Merritt stated that not only was the estate financially prosperous just at pres- ent, but was almost ready for distribu- tien. In response to. an inquiry she stated that when the legacies left by her | father are paid, and the expense of ad- | ministration and other debts are paid, there will be nearly $2,000,000 in the hands of the executors for distribution te the immediate heirs of the capitalist. The inquiry into the condition of the Sutro estate was caused by petitions for distribution, filed by Vassar College, which, under the wiil, is to receive $10,- 000; George A. and C. F. ‘Woodward, sons of the late Congressman ‘Woodward, who will receive $3000; the heirs of Congress- men Biggs and Strickland, who will also receive $3000, and L. D. Ferriss, surviv- ing relative of Judge Orange Ferriss of New York, who was also bequeathed $3000 by Sutro. The petitions were opposed by the at- torneys for the dircct heirs of Sutro on the ground that the estate was not in a condition to stand the payment. Upon the showing made by Mrs. Meredith, however, the opposition was withdrawn and an order was issued directing the rayment of the various amounts. _— The insurance o Tive forbidden in Mznttret;‘le.
