perintendent of Schools was authorized
to make arrangements for permanent
exhibit of public school work at the
Chamber OF Commerce. Mr.. Whaling
was opposed to the motion on the ground
that the efforts of the children would be
directed to the special features to be put
on exhibition, and would thus be drawn
away from their regular studies; but the
motion prevailed in spite of his objec-
ton.
The blackboard question was then
brought up again for discussion and
Gov. Gosper moved that the member
from each ward as his buildings were
completed be allowed to select the
boards for his schools as he deemed fit,
at cost of not to exceed $3.50 per
square foot. Mr.. Whaling again insisted
that the boards should be advertised for
and offered an amendment to that effect.
Gov. Gosper replied in defense of his
motion, but finally withdrew it, and the
amended motion to advertise for bids
prevailed.

General Manager X. II. Wade, of the
California Southern, went to Barstow
yesterday to meet the party Of Atchison,

dent, and Thomas Barring, of the
famous London firm of bankers.
The special car was switched off at San

The anti-election PittSburs stories
about namelcSs capitalists, who were
going to build great tin-plate mills in
this country, have collapsed. The Pitts
burg Press. an extreme protection paper
now comes forward, and says that moth
ing is to be- done, and that ia view Of
the necessity of getting tin-piate from
Wales the tiu-platc clause Of the Ne
Kiulcy act should be repealed. The
Press says:
"Why should what was intended 20 be a
prohibitorv tariff on tin be maintained.
Its effect would only be 10 enhance the
price Of tin to the consumer, without en-
hrging the Industrial capacity of the cOun-
try bv new enterprise on large scale for
the benefit of American labor. Under
these circumstances il would perhaps be
wise for Congress at its next meeting in
December 10 repeal the tin-plate clause Of
the new tariff act. and the motion should
be made and carried out by Republicans.
10 is better 10 recognize facts IN politics,
and 10 is a fact now that the tin-plate tariff
cannot benefit anybody, and its repeal can
not disturb any trade or branch OF indus
try"
These declarations thoroughly expose
one of the biggest Republican humbugS
of the recent campaign. In view of
the outcome Of the elections, the Press
sees clearly that rs long rs the out
rageous Mckinley duty on tin plate
continues it will De serious injury to
the Republican party.
