HERE are many reasons why California will give more than a usual off-year Republican ma- jority next month. No careful observer bases sion on the desertion of Lane by Budd, in the middle of the campaign to carry coals to Newcastie in the tenderloin of where his candidate, Mr. Hearst, could 8 ve him the nomination he the certainty of election. Budd might s fidelity to his party in misfortune by g here and fighting it out to sure defeat, for failure has become jaded and his isfortune is a bit off. Lane need not ascribe his overthrow to the absence ¢ he ir.

Coincidence | ident are the support of all superstitior!, and tand for this cne upon which Mr.*Lane de- pends fo: isfaction of his ambition. Conditions vorable to coincidence and accident. The people of the State have too many al interests at stake to imperil them by permitting any such ac- cident as a Democratic Governcr. After long (disuse the energies of California, called into profitable play in 1897, have urged the develop- | ment of the State to a point where they cannot af- ford to let it rest. The feeling of the people is shown in the manry and strong improved associations which ng and planning to put the.capacities of Cali- fornia before the worid's eye in fuller form than ever before. In this period of widespread prosperity and general thrift this State bestirs herself to get a share of the wealth that is being won everywhere through the nourishing and progressive policy of the Repub- lican party. Mr. Lane jocosely declares that the Republicin party does not make the sun shine nor the rain to fall. That'is true. But the sun shone and the rain fell and kept their appoirtments between 1893 and 1897. Seedtime and harvest came then as now. The needs of the people were the same. They craved food and shelter and work and wages and a profit on their products. But they craved in vain. Something was nreeded to supplement rain and sun and seedtime and harvest. That something came when McKinley was inaugurated in 1897. It came in the beneficent poli- cies for which he stood, and which his party at once put into action. Around us is every evidence that no State in the Union has had a greater proportional share in the results of the prosperity that ensued than Czlifornia. The increase in the last year of nearly $60,000,000 in our bank deposits is a partial measure of the profit that has come to us in the restoration of prices and the renewal of the consuming power of the American people. st | Ml which capit that C they s now are u are pulli Now, inasmuch as the Democratic party proposes | to undo znd remove every particle of legislation that has put nerve and energy and profit into the indus- tries and business of this country, and frankly de- | clares its purpose to reverse the country's headway by killing the motive power that has given us sucit impressive advance, its claim for support strikes upon deaf ears. It wants to go back to reliance upon sun and rain solely, without making any provision to | { ment. A NEW JEFFERSON. HE Examiner is an exponent of the new legal Tlheory that when tH® owner of property ' af- fected by public use is prevented the use thereof by an unfawful physical force too strong for his re- sistance jurisdiction arises for the expropriation of his property, its confiscation to public ownership and administration. As all property that produces fuel, food or clothing is affected by public use, and comes within the sweep of this new theory of law, the issue becomes important Lo all owners of property. Mr. Hearst is making his tenderloin campaign on this new issue of expropriation, and his hired writers are under instructions to advocate it and give it such respectability and backing as they can by an appeal to authority. One of them has filled his order by tracing the doctrine *o Jefierson. This creates a new Jefferson, different from the man who wrote the Democratic platform in his first inaugural. In that document he said the people required “a wise and frugal government, which shall restrain men from injuring ore another; shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and im- provement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread that it has earned. This is the sum of good government, and this is necessary to close the circle of our feli Writers on government have regarded that as a plain statement of police government, and other writers who believe that government should be pa- ternal and not police have always condemned Jeffer- son for what they denounce as his laissez fairc view of public authority. The Examiner has discovered that Jefferson was a paternalist! In 1811 he said this in a letter written to vindicate the light pressure of our Federal Government upon the poor: “The poor man in this country who uses nothing but what is made within his own farm or family, or within the United States, pays not 2 farthing of tax to the Gen- eral Government but on his salt; and should we go into that manufacture, as we ought to do, he will not pay one cent.” Commenting on this the Examiner says: “Here you learn that Jefferson did not comsider the Gov- ernment of the United States incapable of owning rational properties vitally important to the public. If he felt that government could properly control the salt manufacture in ordgr to save people from taxes and extortion, how much more earnestly would he have advocated government ownership of those an- thracite coal mines, which under private ownership @nd trust management now threaten the people with absolute disaster?” Of course it is plain to any reader that Jefferson in the letter quoted never expressed any such thought as government ownership and manufacture of salt, That necessary of life was not manufactured in this country at that date. It was imported, and under the tariff of 178 paid an import tax to the General Govern- He was writing about Federal taxation, and said “should we,” meaning any of the people of the United States and not the Government, “go into that manufacture, as we ought to do,” salt need not be im- ported and the constmer would not pay any silt tax. That was all he said and all he meant, and meant to say. He had no thought of the Government going into the salt business, for he believed that the Government had no business to be in business. He regarded governmen: as a political concern orly, bound to use its police powers to prevent one man injuring another; but otherwise leaving all men free to pursue individual enterprises and use their labor and capital as seemed to them best. Extending its discovery of a new Jefferson, the Examiner proceeds tg argue that it is right for the Government to provide the people with “sugar, shoes, or hats or iren,” and adds as a clincher that “the people know that they have-a right to do just exactly | what they want to do.” That obsoletes the constitution and sweeps up the body of the law as if it were rubbish. Against such a proposition Jeflerson said in his first inaugural: “All, too, will bear in mind this sacred principle, that though the will of the majority is in all cases to pre- vail, that will to be rightful must be reasonable; that the minority possess their equal sights, which equal law must protect, and to violate would be opp-es- sion.” S Since his tenderloin campaign began Mr. Hearst seems to hgve adopted as his platform the words put by Burns into the mouth of a strolling vagabond: “A fig for those by law protected, Liberty’s a glorious feast. Courts for cowards were erected, Churches built to please the priest.” Some of the rural papers in the Mississippi Valley States are reported to have formed an agreement not to give a big obituary notice to any prominent citi- zen who during his life did not subscribe for his Jocal paper, and it is now believed that every man who deems himself prominent will subscribe at once. CARNEGIE AT ST. ANDREW'’S. ARNEGIE'S address on his installation as ‘ rector of St. Andrew’s University is a striking illustration of the extent to which the busi- ness man has dominated the English-speaking world. Far more significant than anything in the speech it- self was the fact that it was made in such a place under such circumstarces and by such a man. St. Andrew’s is a venerable institution. It has come down to us from the dark ages. Its career has been marked by the splendid services of many a scholar. It has lived for philosophy and for truth. Now it wel- comes and bows before the man of ‘action, whose philosophy goes not beyond the dogma, “The hope of the world is commercialism, and in commercialism it is magpitude that wins.” Old John Knox told the people of Scotland that learning should be the chief object of desire and that “every scholar is an addition to the wealth of a na- ltion.” Under that conception of life and of scholar- supplement the. spontaneous contribution of nature. | ship thére developed among the Scottish people a Californians have had enough of that. They know that production is profitless without a market and that 2 return to the starvation prices ond decreased | consumption and crippled demand of the years when men were idle and starved or fed on charity will make seedtime and harvest useless. tion; This is not supersti- | it is nct reliance on accident 2and coincidence. It is 2 definite conclusion from certainties of which the people have no deubt. This State will add no makeweight to the dangerous policy of reaction and reversal. It will make no change in its political con- trol until the party in opposition repents of its pur- pose to smite prosperity by smiting its cause. B e — Mascagni is having a really strenuous time in New York, and some novel experiences. A few days ago | the owner of some American copyrights of his music served an injunction on him and would not let him put it in his programme. It is now up to Mascagni to compose some new music or take to the lecture olatform. feelingm which led them, as Ian Maclaren told us, to believe “that ‘professor’ is a sacred word and means a heavenly body.” With the new age there comes the ngw idea. The cultivation of philosophy on a little oatmeal no longer suits the ardent youth of Caledonia’s hills. Their eyes look out to the busy world of commerce, and they call in as 4 philosopher, guide and friend to give them counsel the successful business man, the great captain of industry, the lord of many millions of dollars #nd the teacher of the doctrine that the world is but a markgt, man is but a trader, and the biggest combination wins. It was a strange philosophy to be pronounced at St. Andrew’s, and yet there is an element of hard truth in it. 'We may be sure it will give rise to an im- mense deal of discussion. The appeal to Kaiser Wil- helm to come forward and save European nations from American conquest was in itself enough to cause- a sensation. Unless the Kaiser or some one else brings the nations of Western Europe into an ! alliance at least, if not a federation, they will in the ; for iam. future, says Mr. Carnegie, “revolve like so many liliputians around the giant Gulliver, theé American Union, soon to embrace 100,000,000 of the English- speaking race and capable of supplying most of the world’s wants.” After making such a speech it is to be hoped Mr. Carnegie was considerate enough to the repute of the universify to ask thel faculty on the quiet, “Will you have a library on me?” Surely he owed some- thing to the venerable memories of dead scholars and philosophers, and the least he could do would be to offer them a bunch of books as a proof that com- mercialism does not wholly ignore the worth of those who have worked for other things than coin. It is to be noted, finally, that.in addition to the rectorship conferred on him by the vote of the students Mr. Carnegie obtained from the faculty the degree of Doctor of Laws. Thus we have a proof that Knox’s rule works both ways; for not only is every scholar an_addition to the wealth of a nation, but every man who makes a milliop may be accounted an addition to its scholarship. ! London is babbling over the discovery of an old®| romance which some authorities assert was written by John Milton. There is still a chance, however, for the Baconites to get in and say'Bacon wrote it as a key to Shakespeare’s plays. Flhe Republican party has nominated Victor Woods of San Luis Obispo. The*nomination was carefully made, for the office is an important one. Upon its incumbent rest complex and often perplex- ing dutics. Both public and private interests are in- volved in the rightful solution of questions which go up to the Surveyor General for determination, and accordingly it is imperative that the occupant of the office be at once a skillful surveyor and a man of thorough reliability in every respect. N Mr. Woods is an experienced and competent sur- veyor. He has had long practice in his profession and is held in high esteem by all who know him. His work is accurate and can be counted on. He is thus eminently fitted for the office to which he as- pires and for which he has been nominated by fhe Republican convention. He enters State politics with a record of which any man might be proud, and the success of his work in private life affords an unmis- takable guarantee of skill and fidelity in the service of the State. 3 The Republican party enters this contest with an assurance of success all along the line. The members of the convention of the party were certain they had assembled to virtually name the coming State ad- ministration. They knew they had only to name a strong, earnest, popular man for each position to practically make sure a clean sweep in the’ election for the whole ticket. They took no chances m any case. Not a single weak or unfit man appears on the ticket from top to bottom. In the list are many of State-wide reputation, while some are comparatively new to State politics. The latter, however; are in every case men of approved worth whose fitness for office has been demonstrated in private life or in the service of counties and cities. Among these is Mr. Woods. No man on the ticket better deserves the votes, of all Republicans and in- dependents than he. His election will assure a faithful and competént administration of the affairs of the Surveyor General's office. He is making a straightforward, manly canvass, and merits the sup- port of all who understand the importance of the of- fice and the need of having the right man to fill it. VICTOR WOODS, - 3 OR the office of Surveyor General of the State It may be true that David Bennett -Hill never drinks, never smokes and never loved a woman, but just the same his coal plank shows that he is so- ciable enough to be a socialist if he thought it would FROM THE TOMBSE. NCE upon a time there was in this country a mighty organization known as “the Popu- list party.” It nominated county tickets, It controlled the Legislatures of several States and elected quite a number of members of the United States Senate. For a time it seemed to have a great futurebefore it, but in 1806 it dropped into the quagmire of Bryan- ism, and after a few short struggles became quiet and ceased even to clamor. In the years that have passed since the famous Bryan fusion so littlc has been heard from the Popu- lists or of them that the general public has almost for- gotten their existence. Those who have thought of them at all have deemed them no more than a mem- ory. The opinion has prevailed that they were all submerged in the quagmire and that not one remains with his head out of the mud and his voice free to shout calamity. Those opinions are erroneous. Some stragglers from the old guard remain. In one or two States a few forlorn men have held what they called “conventions” and have nominated Populist tickets. The public has given no heed to such per- formances, but none the less the men ‘who went through with them were doing something more than a political “stunt.”” It appears they were actually in carnest and «are fixing things for the coming Presi- dential election. One of the survivors of the Bryan catastrophe is Marion C. Butler of North Carolina, and he vows there is a future for Populism. He says: “In 1904 the Populist party will have a ticket in the field for the Presidency independent of any other party. ‘We will poll more votes for a Populist candidate then than we did when we put fip Weaver and got over two million votes for him. Since then we Have twice fused with the Democratic party and’given it our votes. In all that time the Democratic party has taught its voters to despise Clevelandism, and those teachings will be remembered. The result will be that in 1904 we will not only get all the votes we got for Weaver, but we will get a large part of the Demo- cratic vote al<o, as I have no doubt that by that time the Democratic party will be in the hands of the Cleveland Democrats and will be endeavoring to fos- ter Clevelandism. I cannot undertake to say what vote we will then poll, but it will be a large one and the largest we have ever had.” ' » Perhaps Mr. Butler’s voice is but a voice from the tomb, but there may bé something of ghostly prophecy in it even if it be no more than that. \At any rate it has a doleful sound for Democracy. The reorganizers are warned: Stay with Bryan or take the consequences. \ —— It is announced that the Sultan has written a book | of reminiscences, and now we shall know all about ultimatums and how to deal with them—how to pre- serve them, how to pickle them and how to use them O State tickets and national tickets. 5 . HIS POETIC INSIGHT INTO NATURE . GIVES M'COMAS’ WORK 'ITS CHARM oo FANCY that it will have been the ex- perience of almost every one who ! has ever attempted to write about‘y music that when it comes to the de- scribing of a composition—that is, the saying of anything that shall convey to the reader any coherent idea of tife thing talked, about—one has well-nigh arrived at the impossible. This certainly was the view of Robert Schumann, who, oace in his editorial days, "after struggling through a column of vain effort to de- scribe a new symphony (by Onslow, I be- | lieve,) Zave up the task as fruitless with | the remark: ‘‘After all, there is no telling you anything about the symphony that will be of the least value; the only way to do that would be to send a score to each of my readers—who can read it. The others would have to hear the piece.” I think it is much the same with any attempt to talk about pictures. One may catalogue the subjects, - which means nothing at all, since the subject is the least important part of a picture—or should be. One may dilate on the tech- nique or methods of the painter and have said nothing at all, since no description of them can be made to convey any real thing to the. reader: Ruskin exhausted volumes of his superb descriptive’ an- alysis over Turner. I doubt whether it/ ever helped any one to know anything about Turner until they had seen his work: There is no printed word that will describe the beauty of a line, no cun- ningly contrived phrase that will convey the charm of a tint. You may, indeed, say of a painter that he is or is not a fine colorist, or that he draws well or does not draw well; but it seems to me that one ‘has in such case to be pretty sure of one’s judzment as to whether the painter's colcring or drawing is after all not precisely that that he requires for his purpose—for the best expression of him- self. One heard constantly in the New York picture shows of some twenty odd vears ago—from some of the painters.as well ‘as the dilletante—that Homer Mar- tin couldn’t draw, and—I have heard that, also—that he had ro feeling for color! 1 believe these people really thought so— then! Very few of them would venture to think so to-day, now that Martin is ranked by the world as one of the few great painters our country has produced, and has his honored place emong the best of meii of our time. The!fact of it is, that whilé he could draw, in the sense that would have satisfied the critics, if he saw fit, and while he understood the re- sources of the palette with the most bril- liant cclorist of them all, to Martin the display of nis technical skill in these matters was as nothing, or less than | nothing. H4& bad something of his own to ray, and he found for himself the technique with which he could most ade- quately say it. and this seems to me to be the only right way to paint—or in fact, to do anything. As to the value of the thing said, that is entirely a ques- tion ¢f the man who says it. All of which means that in calling at- tention to the work of Francis McComas, which is at present to be seen at Vick- ery’s art rooms on'Post street, I am go- ing to attempt no description of the pic- /tures themselves, no parade of technical terms or the set phrases that' generally g0 to make—and -muddie uv--picture no- tices; no art writing, yin fact. Mr. Mc- Comas’ pictures imprtss me. as quite above that sort of thing. Theéy are either that or there is nothirg at all to be said about tkem.. It is work in which there is—and can be—no question of mere tech- nique; it bears on-its face the conviction that the aim—the constant aim—has been to say something nobly, beautifully; that e S e e e e o ) BENEFIT TO BE TEND_RED AN AFFLICTED PHTSICIAN Friends of Dr. C.

A most important discovery has been made after a year's patient laboratory work aimed in_.a certain direction—it is Newbro's Herpicide, a preparation that cures baldness, prevents falling hair and speedily and permanently eradicates dan- druff. '"These evils are caused by a germ, or parasite, that burrows into the scalp, throwing up dandruff, as it seeks to sap the life of the hair at the root® There's o baldness without falling or thin hair, no thin hair without dandruff, and no dandruft if the germ is destroyed.
