TIE San Francisco Call charges that the de-

secure the State to the Republicans. To this
the .Marysvile appeal responds GA lot Of
Democrats were about to 60 where they belong,
and Democratic lawyer was keen enough to
raise the question of the validity Of the natnral-
ization papers. If they are not genuine, OF
course no one can be punished for counterfeit
ing them. The question was not raised to dis
franchise Democratic voters, but to Keep few
hundred out of San Quentin prison. The de-
PENDANTS counsel, Calhoun Benham, Demo-
crat, probably weighed the question in its entire
bearings, but it was his duty, as faithful attor-
