Shorthorns for Milk or Beef

The handsomest and most snowy form
for Shorthorn COW includes broad as
well as deep chest, full crops, fore ribs
so round as to leave no depression be-
hind the shoulders; straight line
along the back to end of the rump;
wide between the buckle bones, and
well-developed quarters. This is the
best shape for making beef. For milk
the chest should be deeper and not so
broad, fore ribs rather fiat and long,
crops less full than for beef, and the
quarters quite broad, so that in looking
at her in front her body will appear de.
cidedly wedge-shaped, the larger end to
the rear. But even thus formed, when
dried off, Shorthorn COW will fatten
quickly and cheaply, and make a good
carcass of a fine quality of beef. Occa-
sionally one of beef shape-that is,
about as full in front as rear, and rath-
er fat-proves great of highly
excellent quality, like some Holstein-
Friesians. Many of the latter seem to
have changed their nature in America,
yielding richer milk generally than in
Holland, and yet of very abundant
quantity. No doubt this change is
owing to the difference of climate and
quality of food.
The summers in Holland are cool and
wet and in Northern America compare
lively hot and dry, with drier and more
frosty winters, and the grass of our
meadows is less rank and succulent.
These have much influence in giving
quantity and quality to milk and also
in the formation-of flesh. Still, the
difference in breeds of cattle is para
mount, and the animals should be
chosen from such as excel in what is
most desired by the breeder to produce.

AFrAIRs IN SAN FRANCISCO.

We doubt if there has ever been a city in
the United States in a worse condition so
far as its government is concerned than
san Francisco is at the present time. 1t
was seen during the last election that the
polling places were, in many instances, To-
Gated in some room where frauds could be
readily practiced without much chance Of
detection, and that false returns were made
in nearly one-half Of the precincts in the
city. Such a state Of things. it would be
superfluous to say, ought not to exist. While
We leave our affairs in the hands Of men
who may have been, for aught we know to
the contrary. stuffed into Office. we have no
guarantee Of an honest administration of
the municipality. Indeed, we know that
the Board of Supervisors brazenly pass such
ordinances as will suit themselves and the
men who nominate them. No candidate
can be placed in nomination for a municipal

strument of that regime. or he be placed
there TO dupe the public into voting the
worst class If men into office. We doubt
even whether our citizens can rely upon
tAeir grand and petty jurors. We mean by
this that there are honest men on our
juries, but we imagine there are just
enough usable jurors to render an indict-
ment or trial by jury uncertain. The
Board Of Supervisors is in a similar con-
dition. 1t has just enough disable men in
il to answer the purposes Of the Buckley
regime. Are not our citizens generally
aware that the condition Of San Francisco
at the present time is nearly as bad as it

with this kind of representation as long as

in the Senate with the intention of perform

THE ELECTION BILL.

The fight over the Silver Bill was child's
play compared to that expected when the
Election Bill is started on its final vote.
The Democrats win vote solidly against
the bill, but the Republicans will scatter.
Three or four Republican representatives
from the Southern States will vote against
the bill. The bill as adopted by the caucus
provides for a Chief Supervisor of Elec-
lions to be appointed by the United States
Circuit Judge in each State; for three
Supervisors in each voting district, 10 be
appointed by the Chief Supervisor; for
Deputy Marshals, without fixed limit as to
number, to be appointed also by the Chief
Supervisor, and for Board of Canvassers,
three in number, but only two of the same
party, to be appointed by the Circuit Court.
This Federal machinery is to DC set in mo-
ton on the petition of one hundred voters
in any Congressional district. The Super
yiSOrs are TO have power TO inspect regis
tratiOn and the casting and counting of
ballots. Returns are TO be canvassed by
the Federal Boards and sent to the Clerk of
the House of Representatives, who will
place the name so returned on the rolls
without regard TO the return made by the
State Canyassers. This point in the bill
will be sharply criticized. The bill as first
submitted provided that the roll of the
Clerk of the House of Representatives
should be composed of names upon which
both the Federal and State Boards agreed.
This provision secured a House of undis-
puted membership to vote upon the claims
of members upon whom the two boards
had disagreed. 1t is not improbable, i'll
view of the expected closeness of the vote
in the House, that some concession Will
be made in this respect. The bill applies
to every State in the Union. 1t will be in
yOked in all the States IN which crooked
practices are known to be contemplated.
The Southern States accept it as intended
to apply especially to their own elections, be-
cause in some of these States the habltual
suppression Of the colored vote is adj
mitted. Election returns show that Con-
gressmen are elected in some of the South
ern districts by less than one-fourth of the
average number cast for a member in
Northern State. The bill is regarded as
partisan measure. but it is only measure
bly, so. Should the Democrats carry the
next election the machinery of it would
pass into Democratic hands. Whatever
may be the motive of a few party leaders,
the body OF the Republican party will sup
port it as the best means of securing fair
elections and honest courts in all the States
of the Union

WIND IN THE WINDY CITY.

According to the Chicago Daily NelCS
Mr Buckley has been giving points to the
politicians Of Chicago. Mr.. Buckley in his
travels is a rather amusing sort Of person.
He apparently possesses fund Of humor
which seldom finds manifestation in the
city of his home. What can be finer than
his cOmpIaeent assertion that in San Fran
cisco eve get nearer the people" than in
New York. Who that has seen Buckley'S
lambs at work at primary can doubt that
they often get very close to the people in
deed The travelling statesman is also Of
the opinion that if the Democracy Of Chi
cago had the peri ect organization he has
given the Democracy Of San Francisco that
city would be reliably Democratic. In this
we suspect Mr.. Buckley is right. There is
no surer way to obtain the desired results
in the case Of an election than to count the
other party out. The details of the recount
resulting from the peculiar way of counting
at the last municipal election confirm what
lie says. Mr.. Buckley sees an opening in
Chicago for a man of executive ability.
Mr.. Buckley can take credentials from this
city establishing his ability as an organizer.
But THE CALL is not anxious to spare Mr..
Buckley just now. He has made an issue
in municipal politics that may as we'll be
decided on the ground. If an organization
Of thugs can permanently control one of
cur political parties and through that the
government of the city, let the TACT be es-
tabliShed. If the voters of any American
city will submit to boss who carries pri-
maries by brute force; who controls cOnven-
lions through delegates thus elected; who
sells nominations to the highest bidder, and
who it is believed determines results Of
general elections by false counting; who it
is also believed packs juries, brides or in
timida;es judges. procures the enactment
of laws in legislative bodies for consid er-
alton; boss, in short, who runs every de-
paTtment of the city government on the
commission plan, eXactiDg for services
what tina, service is worth 10 the parties in
teTested-the fact may as well be demon
sirated in this city as elsewhere. We would
not ike to see Buckley skip away and leave
this problem unsOlyed. San Francisco is
not so large nor so rich as New York or
Chicago, but it is virgin field to work
upon. There is no debt to limit the bound
ing genius Of any boss who can control the
people. In all the Eastern cities there are
debts close up to the constitutional limit,
but in this there is none But Buckley's
lambs are full Of projects and it is fair to
presume that they do not bleat without the
approval Of their master.

THE CALL THE BEST MEDIUM.

For many years THE CALL has been rec
ognized as the great medium for publishing
the small advertisements of the people.
Other papers have made sDasmodic efforts
to take this class Of business from The
CALL, but with no success. THE CALL is
recognized as the paper which brings the
best results from want ads. SUNDAYS
CALL contains 1C6O want ads-many more
than any other city paper, in fact, more
than any other city paper ever contained.
Why is it that THE CALL with no effort,
has retained this class of advertising? Why
is it that other city papers have tried in
vain to get this valuable advertising? 1t is
because The CALL has by far the largest
bona-fde circulation and is the great family
newspaper. The large dry goods. cloaking
and other retail houses realize this, for they
patronize the advertising columns Of The
CALL more literally than those Of any
other paper. The families OF the city must
be reached by advertisers. The CALL is
the best medium through which TO reach
them, as it is taken and read in the homes
of San Francisco more extensively than any
other pappr

4 MORAL SPECTACLE.

Some of our interior CONTEMPORARIES do
not take kindly to the business methods of
a city contemporary which seeks to secure
subscribers on the lottery plan. The San
Bernardino Courier has pretty nearly driven
the Examiner out. Of its range, and more
recently the Fresno Erp0Sitor has opened
fire. The latter says it is "a moral specta-
Gle to see the son Of Federal Senator
Offering short-hOrned heller as tempta-
ton for the Intelligence of the State to
prostitute itself" In this part Of the State
we have more consideration for the meth
DDS the son Of Federal Senator has been
driven to employ. The Senator has paid
out a great deal of money TO keep his organ
going. and he concludes, not unnaturally,
that if there is any virtue in short-horn
heifers as a means of lessening the burden
he win avail himself of it. The organ has
to be kept afoat somehow as the Federal
Senator's seat becomes vacant in two years
hence, and there is a man named White
who has an eye upon it.
