1t is generally admitted that In this cam
palgn the several parties have placed in the
field the very best tickets the city has had

contest gave promise of being hot one, and
the nominating committees determined to

character, were selected for the more prom

of Licenses, was nominated for County
Clerk.
While in every respect thoIough-going
Californian, Mr.. Lee is not native son.
He was born in Pennsylvania in 1858. In
1862 his family removed to this State, and 1t

THE LESSON OF HIS LIFE.
An Earnest Tiibute to the Memory O.
The Great Preacher.

An Earnest Taibute to the Memory of
the Great Preacher.
The following interesting tribute to the
influence OF the great patriot preacher has
been offered by his friend, A. S. Hallidie:
Although a generation has passed since
the struggle for national existence COM
menced, when the State was balanced on
the keen edge of doubt, and knew not
whether her destiny would be with the old
flag or the rebellious States. the memory of
Thomas Starr King is yet fresh in the minds
of those who remember the events of that
period, and knew how lie threw his whole
being into the preservation OF the Union
and the salvation of California.
Gifted with an eloqnence that moved
men 10 do better than they had heretofore
done, he used it for one purpose, for one
end-for his. for our beloved country.
No man With less patriotism, with les
bravery. and less OF the magnetism and
power Of his personal eloQuenee would have
chosen this work or could have performed
ii so well.
A generation has passed. and those who
were within the horizon Of his personal
friendship value the memory of it to-day as
they valued the fact then.
Who of California can estimate our debt
to him? We erect a statue to his memory
which will recall the fact of his existence.
but the memory which rests In the breasts
OF those VINO knew MIN Is greater statue
than can be raised by the hands of man.
Possessing the gentleness of a child, he
was literally endowed with power of
speech and loftiness OF sentiment that per-
suaded and convinced, and bravely used
them for his country and his God.
With an earneStneSs and energy of
thought. gift of expression far greater
than was possessed by any OF his contem-
poraries, they were beyond his physical
ability to maintain, which fact he realized,
but still continued his work. How much
more does the sacrifice seem when he vol.
unfairly continued in the path which he
knew must end in death to him, bat might
end in life to the nation?
1t is well to remember In these times
that Starr King lived. The lesson of his
life is still lesson, and will be such as long
as true love for country exists.

gambling was paying better and better
every year. The total revenue from

60, 000 600 francs, an increase of /. 200, 900

running the thing are: First, 1880, eco

the privilege of gambling; second, all
expenses of governing the municipality;
third, the cost of bribing Euro

fourth, pensions to formerly rich

to plungers who get broke and have
not money enough TO get back home.
As for bribing newspapers. 800, 600
