If the Democratic effort to capture the
city government should succeed. IL will. to
quote the Journal. go long ways toward q
Democratic triumph in the state at large.
This. in reality. is the hope upon which
the present contest is being made. The
managers felt that they had nothing to
lose, With everything to gain. and so forced
upon the city partisan contest purely
for effect upon the broader political affairs
of the state. Republicans owe it to them
selves and to their party 10 meet this as
sault with solid front and 10 rebuke 1t
positively and effectuallyS A full vote is
all that is needed. There must be no care
lessness-no staying at home. Every Re-
publican should make 1t his business to go
to the polls and do his duty. both as citi-
zen and as party man.

NO TIME TO INSTRUCT NEW MEN.

This is time when the city government
should be in the hands of energetic and
capable business men. There is much to
do that must be done at once. There is no
time TO waste in the education of a new
man in city affairs. Mr.. White is a compe-
tent business man. and he is thoroughly
familiar with the details of our city affairs.
He will need no tutelage to fit him for the
duties of the mayoralty, but fromsthe be-
ginning will understand clearly and prac-
ticaIly what is needed to be done and how
to go about doing it. 1t would take Mr..
Collins or any other man not practically
familiar with the detailed workings of the
city government. six months to acquire the
information which Mr.. White has already.
We cannot afford at time like this, when
our affairs are in extremity, to wait for
city officials TO become educated in city af-
fairs. We must elect the men who know
what needs to he done and who can go
about it without an hours delay.

From Ocean to Ocean.

The admission OF Idaho into the Union as
state makes the chain OF states complete along
the northern boundary from the Atlantic to the
Pacific. Fr the first time, the Atlantic was
connected with the Pacific by q continuous
chain OF states when Idaho came into the In
ion. While Idaho was q territory there was
little gap along the northern frontier between
the northwestern corner Of Montana and the
northeastern corner of Washington. But this
gap is now closed. and the line OF states is COM
plete along the whole southern border of the
Canadian dominion. But there remain, great
break in the southern line. From the extreme
western point in Texas to the southeastern cor.
ner of California, there is long distance
where the boundary line is embraced within
the terri Dries of New Msxico and Arizona.
This break in the line should be filed up soon.

In his speech at the Armory last night
Judge Burke took positive ground against
partisanship in city elections; and,
strangely enough, he was roundly ap-

this time had been forgotten. If this he
true there are certain Democrats of this

1t has been charged, anu the charge is
being industriously circulated. that Mr..
George Monroe. the Republican candidate
for chief-of-police, is saloon-keeper. The
statement is not true. Mr.. Monroe is not,
nor has he ever been. saloon-keeper. He
has. we believe, been the proprietor of a
hotel; and if liquors have been sold upon
his premises it has been simply as an Incl
dental feature of q general hotel business.
