the hope expressed that full represen-
tation from each county of this State will
assemble on said date in this City, and
the best and ablest of our party will come
fIom each and every County to consult
for the best interest of the party and to
the party and to transact such formal
business as has been submitted to it.
There is wide. spread unrest throughout
the whsle country; the ranks of Democ-
racy have been shaken in every section,
and that party has been weakened rather
than strengthened by til. result of the
elections of 1890. That victory to Democ
racy is more apparent than real, in fact,
that which was claimed as phenomenal
victory has proven to lie a pht n0menal
apple of discOrd since. Since the organ
zation Of Congress in December last,
Democracy has not only not kept any
promise, but so far has made no effort
towards the fullfillment of any promise.
1t has been true to only one thing-that
is its capapcity to obstruct and its incap-
acity to construct. Democracy's only
record is the record of obstruction and
incapacity. While it is all things to all
men, it has done nothing for any man nor
for the permanent prosperity Of the
country.
Your delegates to the State convention,
relieved as they have been by the action
of the State committee in attending to
local and detail work now imposed upon
the district conventions, will have time to
give thought to the peculiar political con-
ditions of the State, and from this condi-
ton lead the party successfully between
the contending factions of Democracy
now so relentlessly warning. Whether
that success is to be attained by awaiting
the breach sure to come to Democracy
or now to enter the field and contest the
result of the State campaign is a vita
question to Republicanism in this State
and one which the State convention mus
in its wisdom determine. Doubtless thu
coming NATIONAL campaign Will De a cam

lberately stuck out his foot and tIir ped tn /,
runner, who fell in sprawling heap in the

neck, but he scrambled up and reached the

probation of this act by loudly Kissing

To say the least. il was a dirty piece OF
business. There are other ways OF block

SHOOTING AGAIN.
Chinese Wounded In Ross Alley by an
Unknown Man.

A Chinese Wounded In Ross Alley by an
Unknown Man.
The absurdity OF stationing over forty po-
lcemen in Chinatown became more than
apparent shortly before O'Clock last night,
when ING All Suey was shot by an I'M
known asssilant.
On Waverly place there is a police sta
ton. 1t was said that it was built to in
timidate the Chinese, but whoever con-
ceived the idea must have been delirious at
the time. The shooting last night was done
within q stones throw Of the station, and
within twenty feet of two police officers, yet
the would-be murderer was not captured.
Shortly before So'clcck last evening Officer
Madden, who was stationed on Washington
street al the entrance Of Spofford alley, and
directly opposite the beginning of Ross
alley, heard pistol shot ring out from Ross
alley. He ran across the street and into
Ross alley, which was crowded by Celestials,
and saw several Chinese running. Two
other officers followed him, and Officer
Peters, who was stationed in Church alley,
which is connected with Ross alley by a
snail passage ran into the latter alley from
an opposite direction.
In few moments over dozen police
officers who were patroling alleys in the
immediate vicinity closed INTO Rosa alley
and blockaded it, They apprehended
number of Chinese whom they caught rum
no weapons upon their persons let them de-
part.
Soon they found ING All Suey lying in a
doorway. A bullet had entered the back of
his right leg. at point about seven inches
above the knee, and cOurSed downward
through the femur to the front OF the leg
right above the knee. As the officers could
not find or ascertain anything to show who
had done the shooting they were content to
send Suey to the Receiving Hospital in
patrol wagon.
Drs. Somers and Dean operated on the
injured man and cutting a deep cash in the
leg extracted dozen pieces OF broken bone.
The leg was then set and dressed. Suey
says he does not belong to any of the high
binders societies and has no enemies that
he knows of. AS the societies are al peac Q
the police are unable to account for the
shooting. Suey Is a cigar-box maker and
lives on Commercial street, near Sansome.
Detective Cox. In speaking of the affair
last night, said that the Chinese can shoot
each other right under the eyes Of the police
and unless some Of them ''sQueal" they will
always avoid detection.
Outlying districts are crying for police
protection and over 40 policemen are trying
to keep themselves warm In the Chinese
quarter.

That is the relative attitude of the two
factions of the Democratic party In this
city at present.
Never, perhaps, in the history OF the party
locally has there been such discord as exists
to-day, and so far as can be seen. there re-
mains NO chance for them to harmonic be-
fore the primaries. which are 10 occur in a
short time. They are all at sea in fact and
no one seems to know whittier they ara
drifting. The fact is they are entirely with
out Tudder, and the selfish and designing
men who are at the head Of the reorganizers
at present are unwilling to relinquish their
hold upon the party. As stated before
nearly all of them are ambitious to serve
the dear people in one capacity or another,
and lest they should lose their grip upon the
strings that control the nominations they
Will persist in keeping out those who might
upset their cunning little plans.
INA BAD BOX.
1t is easy to be seen, even by a casual
observer, that the Democratic party is in
hard box From time immemoriai IL has
been tradition Of the party that no matter
what differences might arise an election
would ind all factions with both feet i'm the
trough and hungry for nibbie at the COM
mon spoils, but, as all signs fail at times. it
is safe to say that only the most extraordi-
nary combination OF circumstances can

OF whom have never been heard of in poll

refuse to appeal to the people, and then to
think that they claim to be Democrats. 1t is
too ridiculous even 10 consider seriously
when 1t is remembered that our primary
principle is that all power must emanate
from the people. Ii only shows, as l have

Quite change has taken place in the
baseball prospects in one week. During
that time the penrant-winners have fallen
from their proud eminence to one short step
above the tardy but struggling Colonels.
The locals played winning ball during the
week, and left but one lone victory for the
Duke to take home to his subjects. Hard
hitting did it. harris men have improved
wonderfully with the stick, and hammered
Harper and Lo0kabaugh much harder than
