For downright stupidity commend us
to the San Francisco Post. 1t cannot, or
does not comprehend single fact involved
in the recent election in this city, while it
commits itself to statements regarding it
which are utterly false The result of the
election was simply, solely and only due to
the disgust of the people at methods en-
ployed in running primary elections, eau
cusses and conventions, and was a revolt
against fraud at the polls, and the importa-
ton of hordes Of San Francisco roughs to
overawe and browbeat the people on cleo
ton days. Not person of the hundreds
who moved for reform has any personal
ambitions to accomplish or revenges to graf
ify. 1t was found simply impossible to
reform within the party, because the vicious
class controlled the machinery, stuffed the
ballot-boxes and packed the conventions.
If every voter in the city had come to the
primary polls and voted the Republican
ticket it would not have made particle of
difference in the result. With all the
prejudice and injustice of its nature, the
Post, if it has any remaining sense of what
is fair play or common decency, cannot
examine into the facts, and without a blush
of shame repeat its silly and stupid asser-
tions.

ORGANIZING THE PARTY CLUBS.

The Republican State Central Commit
tee, at its first session of the season, has
advised the formation of clubs throughout
the State TO affiliate with the National
League of Republican Clubs. This is
right and prompt action. The RECORD
UNION has urged the formation of such
clubs ever since the League held its New
York Convention. There ought to be two
such clubs possibly three-in Sacra-
mento, and certainly one large one The
idea is wholly new, and addresses itself to
the intelligent and thinking as admirable
in all the details of the work it contem-
plates. 1t is impossible for the bosses to
use these clubs, because the League pro-
hibits them from declaring for men or
tickets, or from taking any part in Office

Republican League.

The State Central Committee passed at its
session this week the following resolution
WHEREAS The National League OF Republican
Clubs, formed in the city of New York has
aroused and quickened the Republicans in the
East, and has led TO the organization of more
than a thousand affiliated clubs distributed in
many States, through central State clubs and
organizations; and, whereas, the Republican
State Club of California has been formed pursrl-
ant to a call of the Chairman of this committee
on basis harmonious with the National League
of Republican Clubs, and is entitled to repre-
sentation in that body; therefore,
Resoired. That the Republican State Commit
tee OF California, recognizing the necessity for
concert and concentration of influence and
recognizing the potency of the Republican State
Club for good TO the Republican party. cordially
indorses its organization. and delegates TO the
said Republican State Club the full authority to
exist as the central and senior organization of
the Republican Clubs of the State of California,
and recommends that it proceed to establish
branch or affiliated clubs throughout the State,
according TO the plan formulated BY the Ma.
tional League OF Republican Clubs.

Our Election Reviewed,

The Anti-Boss Republicans of Sacra-
mento gained decisive victory in Tues
days election. They voted the Democratic
ticket, which was clean, and the Boss
Republican ticket was defeated by major
ity averaging about thousand. The Anti
Boss Republicans have thus succeeded in
overthrowing Rhoads and his supporters,
and are entitled to claim that theirs is the
legitimate Republican organization. The
election brought out fresh evidence of the
outrageous nature ofthe bossism that excited
the revolt, for gang of the lowest order of
ward strikers and roughs was imported by
the boss from the Tar Flat district of San
Francisco, with the object of securing the
election by fraudulent means and terror
ism.
Even from strict party stand point, the
revolt of the Republicans from the boss
made ticket was justifable, for the reason
that the Republican primaries were fraud
ulently conducted, and ali could see that
the will of the voters was defeated in the
ticket nominated by the Convention. The
rule that fraud vitiates all contracts applies
just as much in politics as in law There
can be no obligation on the part of any
honorable Republican to vote ticket that
he knows to have been fraudulently made,
under corrupt dictation. The Sacramento
case was particularly fragrant, for the rea-
son that the election affected the control of
the Fire and Police Departments, vital to
the welfare of the city. Control of these
departments of course furnishes fine oppor-
tunities for boss dictation, and wide OPEN
ings for plumber or tribute.
The anti-boss Republicans of Sacramento
have achieved grand victory for good
government. They have laid the founda-
ton for recognized Republican party
that should carry the city in the fall cleo
tons. The duty rests upon them to work
necessarily TO secure this result They
have, by virtue of this victory, become the
regular Republican party of Sacramento,
but labor and vigilance will be necessary
to preserve the fruits of the struggle.
While they rejoice in March they must not
forget that November cometh, and that the
ex-boss will seek MWysgilie Ap-

filling or local political questions. They
are solely for marshaling the forces of the
grand old party and PROSECUTING for re-
cruits; for establishing systematic organ
ization; for setting in motion means of
rapid and harmonious communication be-
tween all the Republicans in the land
,, for creating centers from which informa-
ton may be disseminated; headquarters
where public questions of interest to the
party may be calmly debated, and
where Republican literature will be re-
ceived and distributed In short, these
are to be educational and permanent dis
ciplining clubs, not mere campaign, enthu-
siastic and temporary affairs. There are
now some $500 of these organizations in
eleven States, and before the LIST of May
there will be upwards of 1000. The
Central Committee has created the
State Club at San Francisco the
central organization of all clubs
to he formed under the League. The

body, and one that we look to for work
and leadership, and it will be the central
organization of League clubs until State
League is formed. The League planrequires
clubs to draw authority for existence di-
rectly from the National League. When
sufficient clubs are organized in a county
they may form county League, and
when few county leagues are established
a Convention may be called and State
League be formed. Not till then can
there be independence of the National
League. Once the former is established,
it will be the central or grand body for the
State, and send delegates from its body to
the National League The State Club
will become one of the California League
clubs when the State League is formed,
and that formation is all the members of
the State Club desire. There is but one
aim in this matter, and that is the system
attic and detailed club organization of
Republicans of California according to and
under the National League plan, and it
should be effected at once.

THE Blair bill, it is now admitted by
some of its best friends has no chance Of
becoming a law We believe that it is for
the best that it should be put aside. The
spirit that prompted it was unquestionably
patriotic and progressive, but the effect OF
destroying the sense of self-helpfulness
among the States, in our opinion, more
than counterbalances the philanthropic
character of the measure.
