has been SO grossly victimized as
San Francisco, q thing like this is
apt to count. Still we admit that
there is chance of Desmond's de-
feat.
As to Auditor Dunn, in spite of
all the money which Spring VAL
ley can spend against him, he is
almost sure to be reelected. A
great parade is being made of the
fact that he employed several rela-
tives to do copying in his office,
for which he paid them several
hundred dollars. But it is a matter
of every day talk In San Francisco,
amongst the knowing ones, that
John P. Dunn could, any day, have
closed his hand upon 100000 of
the Spring Valley Water Compa-
ny's money on the simple condi-
tion of his conniving at the Repub-
llcan Board of Supervisors at
tempt to rob the city Of 1926, 600 to
give to Spring Valley for services to
the city which the courts have de-
cided should be rendered gratu-
itously and which were not in any
event worth fifth OF that sum.
The real struggle in San Francis
CO to-day is for the control of the
Board of Supervisors. The present
Republican Board is gang of rob-
bers, and the people, irrespective
of party, know it. As result of
the coming election, the Demo-
Gratis will have majority of that
Board, and the Auditor, who can
check any abuses. 1t will have
substantially tho city and county
government. We believe that, in
addition, the party will elect all or
nearly all the officers. We must
be permitted to call this a sweep
ing victory. when regard is had to
the fact that, three weeks ago, the
Republicans did not concede to the
Democrats a single city or county
official. The party can we'll afford,
after such a miraculous escape
from disaster, to allow the Repub-
licans to gather scattered official
here and there.
We claim nothing authoritative
about our views as to the outcome
of the election next week. We
merely give the situation as it i'm
pressed us upon personal observa-
tion. OF course, corporation money
is being spent without stint to
carry out the monopoly pro-
gramme, in spite of the people and
their champion the Democracy,
but we incline to think it is being
thrown away.

Hanford of smallpox, has the dis
ease. The County Board of Health
has doubled quarantine precautions
at Visalia, and ordered Tulsre and
Lemore to do the same. There is
great excitement here and at Han

house built. All business at Han
ford is checked. Many others were
exposed and there is great fear of
the disease spreading. Judge Cross

postponed for one month, as many
of the jurymen come from Hanford.
There is great excitement through

TUCSON, August 2d.-The Tucson
Star has advices from Fort Grant
to the following effect: Three cou-
riers have come into Camp Thorn.
as, all bearing the same news, viz, +,
that General Carr and command
have all been massacred by the
White Mountain Indians, 35 miles
from Camp Apache. One hundred
and ten men and seven officers
were killed. The officers must be
Captain Hentig, Lieutenants Car

Carr. Troops left Camp Grant last
night for the scene of action.
The White Mountain Indian
Reservation is located about 16O
miles north of Wilcox, near the
line of New Mexico. The tribe
numbers about 1900 in all. They
can muster 400 warriors. This is
the only tribe of Apaches which
has not been whipped into subjec-
tion. They were moved in 1876 to
the San Carlos Reservation, but re-
belled and returned to their old
hunting grounds, where they have
been ever since.
A report was current last even.

Church Pride and Stiffness.

A writer, whose name we do not now
recall, has the following very truthful
remarks bearing upon a matter which is
attracting no little attention among
Christian people:
In every church there are certain men
who, by their long residence, efficiency,
wealth, learning, or social position, have
come to be recognized as leaders. They
fill the important offices, OF are as in
~1uential as though they did.
Such men can add very much to theil
power for good by courtesy to those less
ho~nored-to the obscure members of the
church, especially to the young and to
those who were once in better circum'
stances than at present. A courteous nod,
a warm shake of the hand at the church
door, in the street, or at any casual
meeting, from such men, will build up q
church in Christian unity and attract
the people to it more than eloquent
preaching where the leading spirits form
q little aristocratic coterie.
The real I'll of the decline of some
important churches is that the official
members are without genuine sympathy
with the majority of the congregation
People begin to feel that they are
ignored; then that they are not desired
then they 60 elsewhere or remain a,
home.
A little thoughtfulness and brotherly
kindness on the part Of the men and
women of position and leadership would
prevent this. Think of it, ye who wish
the church to prosper; and let all prac.
tice it.
