Mavor Pond strobe down Montgomery
street Yesterday afternoon, and no one
seemed to pay him the slightest heed. He
passed at the corner of Pine street, con-
versed for moment with couple of we'll

was net the air Of a man who felt conscious
Of a great victory behind him, and some one
remarked that he looked worn and anxious.
1t is understood, in fact, that the Mayor is
not at all pleased with tie present outlook,
but thinks that he will gain strength as the
is said, that the boom which was to follow
his nomination has failed, for some reason,
TO materialiZe, and the consequence is that
his followers are resOrtiug to their old tao
tics. 10 those who realize that he Is wO-
fully weak in the city they are whispering
stories of his marvellous strength in the inte-
ri0r, while the gentlemen OF the rural dis
trfcts are having their imaginali0ns tickled
with dreams of enormous majOTities In the
city. 1t is the old game of playing the city
against the country. and it is only matter
OF time until it will be discovered.
The fact of the matter is, and it grows
more apparent every day, that the Demo
cratic party Is in sadly demoraiZed con1i-
ton, and Is being weakened by a half
dozen cOntendng factions. Many of the
fIlends OF the Mayor are openly accusing
the Buckley men of rank treachery, while
the latter are as loudly proclaimng that they
are the only loyal Democrats. They claim
that tile Deuprey faction have no intention
Of supporting the head of the ticket at the
polls, and that their only reason for indoors
ing the ticket was to prevent their being
read out of the party, as they would have
been had they proved openly false TO the re-
suit of the Buckley State Convention. By
indorsing the ticket. they say, they have
kept themselves within the party, but that
there is no sincerity in their action. On the
contrary, the Buckley men claim, they will
secretly knife tie ticket, and do everything
else within their power to defeat the 90 boss y

Trustee Bishop Tenders HIS Resignation
the Board.
A meeti ng Of the Board of Trustees Of the
Free Public Library was held last evening,
Trustee G. c. Terrill in the chair, and the
following trustees also present: Bishop
Harrison, Liienthal, Mann. Norris, O'Con-
nor, Taylor and Wise.
The report of the Librarian showed that
during the past month there were is, 3l3
visitors to the main library, of whom 10, 1856
were males. The number of books used
outside was 10, 1874 and inside 6166. Visitors
cards were issued 10 the number of 463, and
629 DoUks were added to the library.
Branch No. l, corner Twenty-second and
Mission streets, reported books used 227O;
number of visitors, 3I79. Branch No. 9,
Kentucky street. near Butte reported 1899
visitors and 1923 books issued Branch No
3, 1901 Stockton street, reported 500 books
issued during the mouth, 2241 visitors and
26 cards issued.
A communication was received, signed by
twenty-th.ee teachers in the high schools,
reque>tiig the beard to adopt the following
resolution: 'That the teachers of the high
schools of this city be allowed to draw at
one and the same time ten books, relating to
the subjects Inch they teach, for use in the
class rooms; said teachers TO be held re-
sp0nSble for The care OF the bCoks and for
their renewal and return at the expiration
Of the time allowed and mentioned in the
rules and regulations of the library"
a very lengthy discussion followed the
presentation OF the resolution, and Trustees
Bishop and O'Connor strongly urged its
adoption. Trustee Taylor thought that the
rules should not be relaxed in favor Of any
class OF people. The library, he said, was
not intended as an annex to the public
school system; it was established for the
whole people, and ii the High School teach
ers were allowed to draw ten books at one
time, other teachers and other people could
claim the same privilege. Trustee Lilien-
thai was of the opinion that the functions Of
the School Department should not interfere
with ,be functions of the Free Library, and
John I'll. Wise thought there were textbooks
enough now in the schools without the
teachers drawing on the Free Library tor
more.
When the resolution was put to vote
Trustees Bishop, Lilienthal, Mann and
O'Connor voted AYE" AMI Norris, Taylor,
Terrili and Wise mo" Trustee Harrison
was excused from voting.
AS soon rs the vote was announced
Trustee Bishop jumped up and said: Mr..
Chairman, | tender my resignation as a
member of this board" Consideration of
the resignation was laid over until the next
meeting, and the board then went into ex-
ecutIYe session.

no one has been decided upon. The names
of several prominent gentlemen are being
carefully considered. but popular opinion IS
widely divided.
Horace Davis seems to be regarded as an
available man, but the belief Is general that
he cannot be induced to accept. That he
would be a strong candidate Is universally
admitted, but having declined renom ma
ton after serving two terms in the House
of Representatives, it is not quite IN reason
