embarrassment. The republican con

mainly made up OF Office
holders and expectant oficehold-
ers, who are viewing the field
OF the fall elections only with a
single eye TO the retention or the pro-
curement OF the place. They have but
one guiding star-their own immedi-
ate personal ends and advancement.
The sentiments and policies upon
which the republican party was
founded have ceased to exist, and the
party goes before the people without
definite aims or commitments as to
the uppermost questions Of future
administration. Were the counsels
of the Democracy guided by either
wisdom, craftsmanship or a sincere de-
sire for the public good, they would
present to electors at this juncture
none but their best names. No
mere politician, no trimmer, no seeker
after the office, should be considered
for a moment. The masses Of the
democracy must be disabused Of the
accursed thought that it is necessary
and vital that a bari must be
named for the presidency instead of a
man. The one man pre-eminent al

The Yosemite valley, first made
known to be public in 1855, had 1922
visitors in the following ten years.
Thenceforward the number annually
increased slightly until 1874, reaching
I'll in that year. In 1875 it began to
r%etrograde a little, and was 2423 in
1876 it was further reduced to 1917,
IN 1871 to 1892, in 1878 to 1888; in
1879, owing to the Sunday-school con-
