What change has come upon the face of the city due to public administration has been pioneered and forced by civic organizations, that reflect the general prosperity. But little, indeed, has originated with the city government, or in the efforts of those who kave controlled it. Mr. Lane admits that the city is Republican, so that there can be no doubt that the party of the majority may take the government if it | In a high sense this admission puts the Re- If it conclude itseli fit to govern San Francisco, it will do so. If it conclude that another party may govern the city, it will per- mit it by voting another ticket or by not voting at all. It is seldom that an issue with cleaner edge is presented to a party. The governing of the city is a public duty. It should not be sought for the emolu- ments it carries, nor for pride of place and position. The only justifiable motive for seeking it is to use it well, in the interest of all the people. We have had a long siege of opposition govern- ment, which has been impeached by those responsi- ble for it. The Republican party can surely do no worse than it is charged the opposition has done. It can so easily do better that every Republican voter should have the pride to want to try. The next two years will be important years in the history of this city, and it is no campaign talk to say that upon the character of the local government for that time will depend important things in all the future of San Francisco. 4 The people have voted ample means to their gov- crnment, to be spent in accentuating the mnatural charms of our location and in providing for the health and happiness of our rapidly increasing popu- lation. The Republican party should take pride in accepting and faithfully discharging a trust so im- portant. The ratification meeting indicates that it feels its capacity and is confident of its power and purpose. This feeling attracts to it the independent vote of the city, and wins also many of the opposi- tion, who are tired of taking promises from their leaders which are never kept. will publican party on .trial ’ The glint of British muskets was seen not long since in Boston streets, but it was the glint of friendly muskets upheld to the sun by the arms of men who had crossed the seas to extend greetings of comradeship and good will. Time works changes in nations no less than in individuals, and the soldiers of two nations who met then in fraternity cared little what their great-grandfathers had done in the days of strife gone by. —_— In the revelations which have followed the gigantic smash of the shipbuilding trust one fact asserts itself pre-eminently. The organizers of the concern left absolutely nothing undone to justify us in calling them thieves of monumental assurance and manipu- Iators princely in their conception of their chosen pro- fession. Princess Alice of Battenberg and Prince Andrew of Greece have been married civilly and have twice accepted evangelical marital bonds to love and honor and she to obey. This triple lock certainly ought to cement this royal union if anything ceremonial on earth can do it. 31 Union Square; | In that time tae city has | 4 THE DEADLY PARALLEL. O hide its own humiliation and its surrender to T McNab and Lane, the Examiner is engaged in 2iming the deadly parallel at its contempor- aries. In that sort of sport the Examiner has no | monopoly, since no newspaper in the country is more open to retaliation. All newspapers that have inde- pendent views occasionally find it necessary to criti- cize individuals and to disagree with party action. When this is caused by a definite and inflexible view of principle, or is based upon some passing issue that is for the moment important, the act is justifiable |and needs no apology. But the Examiner’s bolts of its party, and its attacks upon members thereof, have seldom had any better excuse than personal ma- llignit_\n | It pursued Stephen M. White with the keenest per- | sonal rancor and smote him during the whole of his illustrious public career. For a long time California had a solitary Democratic Representative in Con- gress, the Hon. Marion de Vries. The Examiner blacklisted him and tracked him ceaselessly with venom and spite and the most pronounced hatred. Yet he was a gentleman, a party man and an able representative. When Wiley B. Tinnin, an eminent | Democrat, was serving as Surveyor of the Port, the Examiner said of him: “It is an established fact | that Tinnin is a thiei.” Ex-Mayor Phelan is known {to be a backer of Lane. The Examiner hunted | Phelan throughout his last term as Mayor, and hardly |let a day go by without throwing mud at him and {his administration. It pursued School Director Denman until two of its men got an admonitory thrashing, and then quit through fear of more pun- ishment. It attacked Lane before his nomination |for the Governorship and bolted him in the cam- | paign. To extend the history of its party bolts in this State and of its virulent attacks on party leaders and nominees would require a newspaper page. In na- tional matters it has pursued the same course. It brought all of its resources of billingsgate and pub- licity to bear upon President Cleveland during his last administration, and rotten-egged him into pri- vate life. As late as March 31, 1808, William Randolph Hearst said: “And McKinley—bar one girthy Prince- ton person who came to be no more, no less, than a living breathing crime in breeches—is the most despised ‘and hated creature in the hemisphere. His name is hooted, his figure burned in effigy.” The “girthy person” was Mr. Cleveland. As we have said, in characterizing Hearst's attacks {on President Roosevelt, the abuse of public men by | his papers is intensely personal and has no relation | whatever to proper criticism. That it is an expres- n of personal hatred merely is proved clearly by |its studied incitement to murderous attack upon its |objects. In one of these attacks upon McKinley | Hearst said: “It is foolish for an anarchist to aim his blood and thunder at the old-fashioned little ;kinqs and emperors when the real kings are so near "al home.” This was said between the time of the | assassination of the King of Italy and the murder | of McKinley. The King's assassin had been appoint- ed to that duty by the anarchist circle of Paterson, | New Jersey, and had crossed the ocean to commit | the crime. | In a meeting of the Chamber of Commerce of New York the venerable Abram S. Hewitt, ex-member of | Congress and former chairman of the Democratic | National Committee, in commenting on the course of the Hearst papers as inciting to murder, and re- | ferring to Hearst personally, said: “So long as men 'prominem in public life, or in the walks of business, or in the spheres of society, are willing to recognize by social receptions, by newspaper subscriptions, the influence which we all recognize as at the foundation of this sad development of public opinion, so long las gentlemen in your position shall give your coun- | tenance. either by social intercourse or otherwise, to | these enemies of mankind, to these traitors to human- |ity, it is idle to deplore events like the murder of President McKinley.” So, in near fields and far, the Examiner and its associates have gleaned for a form of attack upon men, that is peculiar in its chattering malice and its appeal to violence. In frankness it must be admitted that much of its grossest conduct in that respect has been aimed at the men locally or nationally eminent in its own party. If the best element in Democracy should get control in localities and in the nation and {nominate a ticket representative of the party’s for- mer virtues, it would be hard to find men for can- didates who have not been attacked by the Hearst newspapers. Therefore the Examiner’s resort to the parallel is labor in vain in this community, where the best men in its own political party know that if they go before the public as candidates the Exam- iner parallel can be pulled on them Optimists still find hope for the Panama canal be- cause the lower hous¢ of the Colombian Congress has not yet had an opportunity to vote upon the pro- | posed measure. If the members of the lower house are of the same breed as the upper house the vote will probably indicate nothing more significant than an increased circulation of cash among legislators of the United States of Colombia. INTEGRITY, CAPACITY, FITNESS. | MUNICIPAL campaign must in the very na- H A ture of things be nearly always a campaign of personalities, since thé personal qualifica- tions of the various candidates for the performance of the cuties of the offices to which they aspire are matters of serious concern, not to taxpayers only, nor even to voters only, but to the whole community. In weighing the merits of the rival aspirants for any of- nce it is mever mnecessary to cast unjust aspersions upon ene for the purpose of advocating another, if ti:at cther have in himself any fitness for the place and any worth that is deserving of honor. It is for thzt reascn that in this campaign the Republican press and Republican orators have had no unfair word to say against their opponents. They have tound :ufficient argument in presenting to the people the urgent veed of a business administration, and the undoubted qualifications of Henry J. Crocker for per- forming with genuine efficiency all the duties of the Mayor's office. The issue in that respect was clearly stated by Samuel M. Shortridge in his letter read at the grand ratification meeting on Saturday evening, in the course of which he said: “I would attack no man’s character, I would impugn no man's motives; I would* simply apply the Jeffersonian test—integrity, capac- ity, fitness. Measuring candidates by that standard, it will appear upon dispassionate reflection that the city's great interests will be best guarded and ad- vanced by the election of Mr. Crocker. Friend of all legitimate business enterprises and enemy of none, looking toward the steady and profitable employment of labor and cavital. his election would mean. and he Francisco wants industrial peace and harmonious co- operation of all her people; it would be an absolute guarantee of an intelligent and progressive and, at the same time, an honest, conservative and safe ad- rministration.” t is the consciousness of having such a candidate for the Mayoralty that enables Republicans at this time to make effective appeals to independents and to conservative Democrats and labor unionists for support for Mr. Crocker and his colleagues on the party ticket. Good government in a municipality depends, after all, mainly upon the men who admin- ; ister it. Integrity, capacity and fitness—those are the thiee essentials, and the people should accept no man for any office who falls short in any one of them. e ———— Report has it that King Peter of Servia has been imprisoned in a Belgrade fortress by the assassins of Alexander and Draga and is being forced to submit affairs of state to their murderous dictation. King Peter is evidently learning the bitter lesson that by their deeds we know men and out of murder no good can come. W tennial of progress and of boom, while New. | York has been watching the various flur- ries in Wall street and giving amazed attention to | the disclosures concerning the inner workings of the shipbuilding trust, Boston has been enjoying the |quiet and unostentatious way in which her Ancient \and Honorable Artillery Company has entertained the Honourable Artillery Company of London. The entertainment was strictly Bostonian, and very ex- iclusive. The people of the neighboring cities were invited to do no more than take notice of the ex- quisite courtesy shown by Boston in spelling the | title of their own artillery in the American fashion, | while carefully remembering on every occasion to Ispell the title of the London company after the | British fashion—“Honourable.” The occasion was a glad one in Boston for many reasons. Inthe first place, Chicago in her centennial celebration ventured to get a number of boomers to | undertake an automobile ride of 150 miles round about Chicago, the object being to show what a matchless system of boulevards she has, or will have when she gets them fixed up. The reports that went ‘hack to Boston of the results of the Chicago ven- |ture filled the Bostonian mind with a pleasure that almost reached the point of glee; and one of the leading papers. of the city said of the adventurers: | “They had various experiences before they got back, | but the beauties of what they describe are quite won- derful. Chicago’s ambition is very laudable, but be- fore her guests get stuck too deeply again in the | quagmires of Cook County, it might be well for her |to send a commission over to Boston to see what | this city has done in the line of establishing a metro- politan park system.” | Feeling good over the superiority of her parks and drives when compared with those of which Chicago has boasted so much, Boston felt better still when | she compared her easy and secure wealth with the | bull-tossed and bear-squeezed so-called “securities” | of New York; therefore she resolved to make her re- | ception of the Honourables of London an occasion for showing the world that she has more money than beans, and a capacity for spending it that is virtually { without a limit. The chief feature of the grand reception was a ban- quet given in Symphony Hall, at which about goo people sat down. Over that banquet the Boston papers began raving for some days before it took | place, and it is probable they will never quit. It ap- | pears the banquets of Lucullus were but side-table lunches ‘when compared to this great Symphonic feast. The Boston Globe gives the figures thus: Total cost of the banquet, $60,000; cost of serving each individual, $75; time spent in preparing for it, twelve months; time spent in arranging the light ef- fects, thirty days: miles of wire used in lighting, 450; number of people employed in serving the dinner, 800; number of waiters, 300; gallons of wine served, 400; number of cigars served in silyer cases, 2500; value of cigars, $800; number of electric globes used in decoration, 15,000. What more could anybody ask. New York and Wall street may smash and Chicago may lose herself in the mud of Cook County, but Boston will flourish like eternal light, extending to every Honourable of any part of the globe a perpetual welcome to halls of Symphony, to floods of wine and feasts of electric lights—for so far as we can learn from our Boston exchanges there was no food on tl® tables, at least there is no statement of the cost of it. BOSTON'S BIG TIME. HILE Chicago has been celebrating a cen- i N — At a recent Women's Congress, representative of the best elements of the life of Hamburg, the ladies permitted the balance of opinion in a debate to de- cide that corsets and jewelry are relics of barbarous times not to be endured by women of the twentieth century. It was very significant though that the question was not put to a vote. The fair debaters preferred to reserve the privilege of revising their own opinion. Jewelry and corsets will still remain on the market. et The trial of George Beavers, many times and va- riously indicted for alleged crimes against the national nostoffice, has commenced. In his present hour of, need he may take one consolation to himself. If he were convicted and sentenced on every charge against him he could plead that the punisiiment, cov- ering the life spans of hali a dozen ordinary men, would be unusual, unnatural and contrary to the prac- tice of a civilized nation. On a ranch near Pleasanton a few days ago two Indian women fought a duel with knives. The sub- ject of the discussion was a Mexican and the object the possession of his affections. One of the ladies is now largely mince-meat and the other is in jail, but both are probably happy in the reflection that they so gallantly have made their sacrificial offering to the god of love. Several of the Servian officers who conspired | on a matter which is sub judice and against the murderers of King Alexander and Queen Draga have been sent to prison for their bold pro- test against the policy of assassination. And still Servia asks the world to accept it as a civilized, Christian nation. It must exhibit something more than the ethics of an Apache to be included within the pale. The Supreme Court has decided that final decrees of divorce may not be obtained within this State until the expiration of a year from the grant of the interlocutory decree. Even this decision is a con- cession to the demand of self-respecting citizens that the marriage contract be a trifle more binding and permanent than an agreement to barter a season's jcrops. understood throughout the Union to mean, that San COMM[SS!ONE RS : GRIM REAPER CONSIDER THE BOUNDARY CASE LONDON, Oct. 12—The last stage of the Alaskan boundary arbitration began to-day when the Commissioners met in secret session to consider their verdict. Senator Lodge and Professor Sir Lewis Jote, one of the Canadian Commission- ers, were early on hand, and War Secre- tary Root and Senator Turner followed them into the Cabinet room of the For- eign Office, where the deliberations are being held. Later Commissioner Ayles- worth of Canada, who had been in the country, dut in an appearance. ‘While nothing can be known definitely, a very hopeful feeling prevails in Ameri- can circles. A significant reflex of this appears in to-day's Times. Dealing with the difficulties encountered in the selec- tion of a new British Embassador to the United States and the irritation whici he would have to tace both in Canada and the United States if the tribunal brok up with a disagreement, the Times sa “We rejoice to say that there is believed to be something more than a possibility that an award may be agreed upon, or rather that seven questions may be so answered as to end the matter.” The Commissioners adjourned for the day without having reached a decision. John W. Foster and counsel of the Alaskan Boundary Com- mission entertained the arbitration com- missioners and the English counsel at a dinner to-night at the Carleton Hotel. Embassador Choate, Lord Strathcona and Sir Thomas Sanderson, vermanent Under Foreign Secretary, were the guests of the evening. Forty-one persons were present. No speeches were made. OTTAWA, Ont., Oct. 12.—In Parliament to-day Minister Borden asked if the Prime Minister had taken any steps to verify the accuracy of an alleged inter- view with Mr. Aylesworth, one of the commissioners on the Alaskan boundary question. port contained certain observations both with regard to his duties as commissioner and with regard to his views on matters now the subject of political controversy in the United Kingdom. Barden contin- ued: “It seems to me rather unusual and I idecllnc to believe that Mr. Aylesworth could have used the language attributed to him.” Sir Wiltrid Laurier the replied that Government had taken no steps to ascer- | tain whether the alleged interview had taken place or not. He added: “We assume that this interview had | not the character attributed to it. Mr. Aylesworth is a counsel of very great eminence and I would hesitate to believe, and 1 think my honorable friend would have equal hesitation, that Mr. Ayles- worth would have expressed any opinion n which he himself is one of the judges. “The language attributed to him is very improbable and until I hear to ti con- trary and have some other guarantee for believing that Mr. Aylesworth has so ex- | pressed himself 1 shall believe that this others, was not an of Mr. interview, like many expression of the views worth.” e g m PERSONAL MENTION.

He became uncon- | scious yesterday. At St. Agnes Sanitarium, where he has been a patient for several weeks, the physiclans report that there are no hopes for his re- covery and that it is evident he is suffer- ing no pain. ST. LOUIS, Oct. 12.—Because of the se- rious illness of Archbishop Kain he was relieved of the active work of this arch- diocese several months ago by Bishop Glennon of Kansas City, who was ap- | pointed coadjutor. Archbishop Kain is one of the most | widely known and most popular prelates {in the United States. Born in Martins- | burg, Berkeley County, West Virginia, on May 31, 1841, of Irish parentage, he re- ceived in early life the training which made his work in the church such that he forged to the front quickly. His pre- paratory education for the priesthood was received in St. Charles Seminary, Ellicott, Md., where he was graduated in 1862. He then entered St. Mary’s College, at Bal- timore, which institution was the scene of his higher studies. He was ordained a | priest by Archbishop Spaulding on July 2, 1868. As a priest his early work was in the territory along the Potomac River. In May, 1875, he was consecrated Bishop of | Wheeling. He ruled that diocese until June 15, 1893, when he was appointed co- adjutor to the Most Rev. Richard Peter Kenick of St. Louis. Upon the death of that prelate he succeeded to the archbish- opric of St. Loufs, on May 21, 18%. —_——— Federal Supreme Court Convenes.

The police say that most of the others probably will be de- ported. A large number claim that their certificates have been lost, but the act of Congress makes no provision for such loss and in such case, the authorities say, | deportation must take place. SOCIALIST MOB DEFIES POLICE OF PORTO RICO SAN JUAN, Porto Rico, Oct. 12—Gov- ernor Hunt returned here to-day from Ponce, where he attended a banquet in celebration of the extension of the Amer- ican raflway In the island. During the Governor's absence the anti-American Soclalists and anarchists had a clash with the police on the plaza of this city. Ferty arrests were made, and many prisoners were to-day convicted and sentenced to six months’ imprisonment, including the anarchist Conde, who was recently con- victed of insulting the American flag. The clash was due to the Socialists, who attacked the police. The latter or- dered the mob to disperse, and on meet- ing with a refusal they used their clubs freely. Americans here are particularly in- censed at the carrying of black and red flags and a craped American flag by a mob yesterday as an incitement to disor- der. Conde delivered a very offensive harangue, in which he approved of the mob resorting to bloodshed if necessary The Americans demand the punishment of all the dangerous Socialists and are overwhelming Governor Hunt with assur- ances of support in a vigerous campaign to uphold law and order. They urged that an immediate death blow be given to an- archy here. The city is qulet to-day. More of the men arrested for attacking the police will be tried to-morrow. ANSWERS TO QUERIES.
