A WORD FoR PUBLIC RESTITUTION.

One of the purposes of the California
Museum Association is to afford, at the
minimum of cost, the breadest opportuni
ties to the public to gain information on
topics of general interest from the lips of
specially trained men in the arts and
sciences. In pursuance of that plan, the
chief instructor in the San Francisco
School of Design, the artist Virgil Will
Jams, is to speak before the Association to-
night upon the subject of art, and the
possibilities it opens up to such of the
youth of the day as are naturally inclined
to the study. 1t is to be hoped that, for
the credit of the tastes of this people,
there will be in attendance upon this free
lecture rendered by the Association large
audience, as well as to encourage the Asso-
citation in its efforts to provide public in
tellectual entertainment 1t certainly has
the disposition to do its whole duty in this
respect and make the gift of Mrs. Croker
to the city bear full fruit; but it is needed
that encouragement be given, and appre-
citation of these efforts be shown by the
public, by generous attendance upon such
gatherings as that announced for to-
night. The Association, by reason of
the relation it occupies to the Art
Gallery, and its custody of that splendid
city property, is public institution in the
sense of being subject to public criticism,
and deserving public commentator. The
plan of its work forecasts great benefit for
this city. OF course it is the work of
years, of patient, painstaking industry, I'M
seltishness and courageous philanthropy
that will refuse TO be discouraged under
any circumstances and for that very rea-
son its early efforts should receive the
heartiest public acknowledgment In fact,
it should embrace in its membership every
citizen who esteems it worth while to do
something for the general good, and we
entertain the belief that its roster will
presently enlarge to the thousands, as it
should. With such support, the possibili-
ties of its accomplishment, and the contri-
buttons it can make to the community, and
every member of it, will be unreasonable,
1t is something strange that so few citizens
have as yet come forward and united with
the society, since its work is of 4 most at
tractive and educating character, and
moves upon plane where all can meet
without the possibility Of political or relig-
ious friction, or the attrition of conflicting
Interests

PROOFS OF SUCCESS.

Those who are anxious to conclude that
the civil service reform movement is a
failure should read Dorman B, Eatons
paper in the July North american Reute,g
on that subject He shows by undeniable
testimony, that the merit system in its
operation to this date has been a success.
There are nearly $4,000 posts to which
competitive examinations now apply in the
Washington Departments and Postal and
Customs service. Upwards of 1000 per-
sons have been examined since July, 1888,
and about $500 from the highest grades
have been appointed to place for the first
six months on probational conditions. OF
these but two out Of every 100 have failed
of permanent retention. Out of 800 APP
pointed to places in Washington under
civil service rules but three in 4 year
were removed. The average age of appli-
cants has been thirty years, showing the
fear that young colIegians would pack the
classes was untounded. Dat of 5,556, of
whom complete records are made up, 1920
received their education in the common
schools, and only 449 had ever been at
tendants upon collegiate course Of edu-
cation. Politically the showing is equally
satisfactory, for it turns out that successful
contestants have been about equally di-
vided between the two leading political
parties

of such a nature as to be taken as war
rant for the creation of new deposits for
the action of flood waters. In less than
six months Congress Will assemble, and
the people of this city and the valley
should be ready with such an appeal to
that legislature that it will be heard
and command immediate attention.
River improvement and preservation
appropriations are nearly always rid
den to death by vast number of
claimants for aid on mnumbered creeks,
tail races and insignificant streams, until
the country is disguised and the river and
harbor bills become bywords and measures
of reproach 1t must be demonstrated to
the national legislature that the case of
| the Sacramento river is an exceptional
| one; that it does not belong to the cate
CORY of ordinary streams, and that its con-
dition is menace to the trade of a region
that has right to demand and receive
protection at the hands of the GeFern,
ment In the meantime the people OF The
| valley should use every lawful means a
their command to prevent the rivers being
any longer made the sluice-ways for by
draulic mining and means for destroy

\ VERY QUEER MISTAKE was made by a writer
in the June Century, who, finding an odd flag

This brings ont Mr.. Baker, of the Times Demo

CLEVELAND co., July 9th.-The situation
remains unchanged this morning, so far as
precautionary measures are concerned. AT
8 o'clock news reached Central Station from
the Tenth Ward that's procession ofstrikers,
numbering over / 100, had just lett the cor
ner of Broadway and Hahn, and were
marching towards the city. About an hour
later a second message was received to send
help at once to the screw works, corner of
Case and Payne avenue. Lieutenant Kock
and forty patrolmen hurried there. and
when they reached the City Hall the end
of the procession was just passing south
The procession was proceeding quietly and
orderly, and on reaching Ontario street it
turned Up toward Broadway The men
composing the procession carried clubs, but
were evidently undecided what to do or
where to so. II was reported that they in
tended to visit Messrs. Chisholms office,
and further would call on the Mayor and
demand satisfaction. No such action has
been taken up to this time, and it is hoped
they will do nothing to precipitate an open

derailed at the Northwestern depot. Trains
have been delayed by these accidents. No
