LEAP YEAR RHYMES.

THE WAY OF A BAsHFUL YOUTH.
He was a very bashful youth,
Who always was afraid.
So when he called on New Years eve,
He simply staid and .staid:
And waited till the hands flew round
The clock upon the shelf:
And W hen the midnig ut hour was reach
She did the rest herself.
THE PROPER THING FOR LEAP YEAR.
She asked him If be would be hers:
He laughed aloud ha! ha!
And then he blushed and softly cried,
You q better see papa"
SHE WAS ALL RIGHT.
He did not think she cared for him,
But when the leap year came
He noticed to his great surprise,
She got there just the same.
GOT THERE TOO LATE.
On New Years morn he quickly rose
And to her house he ran
To find that when he reached her door
At haIf-past twelve the night before
She'd asked some other man.

THE REMARKABLE POWER OF A FIFTEEN

daughter with wonderful power or
gift. The girl is about fifteen years
old, and for several years she has
been considered by the simple coun
try folks around the neighborhood to
be "odd." She has dreamy ap-
pearance and is slow of speech, but
when she does talk she shows that
she is above the average Of girls OF
her age in intelligence.
She is we'll educated as most coun
try girls Of her age who have had
only the advantages of the distr;c'

seems to have clAirvoyant proper

she can read letters without breaking
the seal and on several occasions
she has done this with letters where
it was impossible that there could be
any collusion with those who wrote
the letters. She cau also take a book
md hold it closed in her hands and
read from any designated page in the
book.

THE CHAHGE NEEDED.

i local contemporary says: The first
thing TO improve the city is a complete
change Ct administration" When Buckley
ana his lambs were eating up the sub
stance OF the taxpayers two years ago there
was q general demand for a change of ad-
ministrati0n. People thought another ad-
ministTatiou might be better, aud could not
be worse. Il was a choice between the
Democratic and the Republican boss, and
the voters chose the latter After two years
it must be confessed that bat little has been
gained by the change. In some respects the
government has been more extravagant and
Inefficient than il was under Buckley'S guild
ance. What is the remedy? Shall we let
things drift? Shall we so back to Buckley?
SHALL We take the chance Of making some
thing by a swap Of Republican bosses?
There is absolutely no hope in either Of
these courses of action. Neither class Of
bosses promises a good government. The
bosses run both parties locally and are GER
tain TO continue TO do SO as long as officials
are nominated by conventions the members
Of which the bosses have elected.
A remedy lies in the nominations by petit
ton as provided under the new election law.
This method Of placing candidates before
tie people does away with the boss agency.
If the bosses should nominate one set of
candidates by petition or otherwise citizens
can nominate another. The machinery Of
nominations is extremely simple. a petition
signei by voters equal IN numbers to . per
cent Of the voters Of the last election places
a candidate on the official ballot with as fair
a Chance Of success as any other candidate.

-,
marks his preference. The average
voter win be aided in making his
choice by The party designation under
which candidates will be placed. There
will be the Republican candidate, which. at
present. means CTimmins. Kelly and De
Young. the Democratic candidate, which. at
present, means no one knows exactly whom :;
possibly a Prohibition candidate, which
means, in a general way, good government,
and the non-partisan candidate, which
means the conduct Of the municipal gov
eminent On business principles, with tie
bosses of both parties ruled out of the man
agement. There never can be a better time
than the present to strike the bosses down.
There have been periads when the men in
influence in the two parties had some stand
ing in the community. They were men
WDOm the average citlZeh was not ashamed
to know. Most Of them had done some
thing TO warrant their political advance
ment But JUST now the bosses are nothing
but bosses. They hold their positions by
their ability to control the few hundred
roaghs who run primaries The sell nom

THE INDICATIONS.

We copy the following sentences from the
editorial columns OF a newspaper contem-
porary of this city which has done its
utmost to discourage the efforts of San
Francisco to emancipate itself from the
position into which il has been thrown by
the combination of the Southern Pacific
Railroad managers against us:
The city does need a revival of business a sort
of rafting and shaking I'D OF the dry bones, but
TO say. as some of our contemporaries do, that
Tie golden age Of san Francisco has passed
never to return Is a glatutous assumption un-
warranted by>the facts. 1t is true that
we have had a little too much of the folding OF
the hands 10 sleep among our mercantile com.
munity and that their inertia has cost them dear
In some instances, but that Is The most and the
worst that can be said.
This city would be still further crippled
if we were TO told our arms and permit the
shackles to be more closely riveted about
our bodies. We have allowed four or five
men to control the State politically at least.
They have foStered the most abomiua5le
boss system that has yet anywhere been
developed in the United States. Money
would enable the bosses to control
the conventions and then the railroad
magnates controlled the bosses, thus giving
them all they wanted. THE CALL believes
the rule of the railroad through bosses is
nearing the end. This is why we expect TO
see a revival Of business; it is why we an
tieipate better times. To see a State like
California thrust back, dwarfed in its
growth by men who seem to have no con-
sciences, is what THE CALL does not be-
lipva in
