A No1-PARrIsAN TICKET.

THE CALI. has been asked how nom
partisan legislative ticket can be formed.
"All men" says our correspondent, ''have
some kind of partisan standing. AL present
they are called Republican, Democratic,
Peoples party, Prohibition, as may be.
How can a non-partisan ticket be formed
from such materal?" In reply we would
say that a nor partisan legislative ticket
can be formed only when an issue presents
Itself greater than parties in lis relation to
The State. Such an issue now exists. The
regulation Of railroad charges and the re-
firement Of the political bosses the South
eTn Pacific Company have created are is
sues greater in their relation to this State
than politics. Republicans and Democrats
may act together for the accomplishment
IF these purposes without the least sacrifice
Ur party Standing a convention Of COM
mlttees which places a I on-partisan ticket
IL the field should select one as nearly as
possible equal numbers from the national
parties. The municipal offices should be
divided imparIialy between the two, not
only IN poln. Of number, bet of Importance.
The pledges should be Of a strictly local
and non-partisan character. The Board of
Supervisors and the Board Of Education
may be divided equally, and the heads of
departments taken alternately in the
order of Importance from the two parties.
All candidates should be required TO take
the sworn pledges. In respect to nomina-
tiono for tne Legislature the pledge would
be different but the method the same. An
equal number should be nominated from
both parties. In the Legislature each
would be at liberty to act with his national
party, except in local matters covered by
the pledges he had taken These pledges
might include an obligation to vote for a
Upited States Senator in full sympathy
- til the object of the Traffic Association.
In case two aspirants for the Senate are
equally satisfactory to the association, in
dependent members might be at liberty to
exercise their personal or POLITICAL prefer
snce. Gee thing should be avoided. No
independent member should be allowed to
enter caucus with either party with the
ordinary caucus obligations to result from
such actions. 1t is not necessary al this
time to outline the exact nature of the
pledges that should be required, but in a
general way they should be consistent with
the purpose of the Traffic Association, the
League of Progress and other associations.

1t is finished, will not depend largely upon

freight brought to our wharves at the lowest
cost, and local system of railroads feach-
ing thousand miles in every dTeclioh, the
State and city will bound forward III way
To realize the most sanguine predictions ever
made of its future The Southern Pacific
neople once had it in their power To guide
and direct this vast trade expansion, Dut
they preferred to fetter the city rather than
give aid to its natural facilities. In order TO
make multi-millionares OF four or five men,
combinations were formed to enable the
company TO exact from producers all that
the product could possibly pay. The ocean
route and the Panama route were practi-
cally closed. and the company charged its
own prices for bringing freight TO this coast.
Competition killed by an nnholy compact
among railroad managers, the cost of goods
at this Port became so great that our mer-
chants were limited to the counties immedi-
atply around them. BY the water route we
will get goods at less cost, and will thus be
enabled>to distribute them at greater dis
tance than we have recently. But we must
have competing distributing lines OF road.
There will be work for all 10 do andat liv-
ing rates. No railroad will so out OF busi-
ness, but none of them will make multi
millionaires Of their owners in the period Of
half a generation. The men whose avarice
has cloGged the wheels of progress in this
State will look on and wonder. They viii
discover in time that, however we'll monop-
oily works for time. competition is better
iu the end.

MUTILATED GOLD COIN.

Complaint is made in certain quarters
that abraded or sweated gold coin is thrown
out Of the Mint by authority from Wash
ington. Three or four years ago an order
came from the same source rejecting silver
coins which were mutilated. There was
some COMPLAINT made at that time, but in
few days, or few weeks at most. the mutt
lated silver coin disappeared. There was
not much loss on SILVER, and the public we
believe. were generally pleased when the
mutllated silver disappeared. Now comes
gold coin. OF course some vexation is felt
when person receives a twenty-dollar
piece, no matter how short it NAV be in
weight. because it is not received for $50
without hesitation. A moments reflection.
however, will convince any person that the
Government is adopting the proper course
to put an end TO the sweating process. For
few days or few weeks 1t will not be a
very great hardship for person TO note
from whom he receives gold, unless be ia
sure 1t is or full weight and that it is not a
counterfeit. A little caution in this respect
viii put an end to the sweating or filing
process. Regular dealers will see thar tie
coins which they receive and pay out are of
full weight. They viii also note when
persons offer gold coin which has been
sweatcd. hled or plugged, and report the
circumstance 10 the proper authorities. In
few days we imagine there will be little
complaint in respect TO crime in this direc-
tion. 1t would be ridiculous to urge that
tie Government should receive mutilated
COINS without question when 1t was known
such acts. ---

election OF Harrison. OF course If ALI the

TOO MUCH CHL0ROFORM.
An Aged Bookkeeper Almost Killed BY
Taking the Drug.

Taking the Drug.
Paul Duchesne, an aged bookkeeper en-
ployed by II. Plagemann & Co., 318 Sansome
street, failed to appear at his place of en-
ployment yesterday. So the firm sent Will
Lam Schroeder, a boy, to see what was the
matter. The bookkeeper was found lying
in bed in his room at 2lS Stockton street
and unconscious. Dr.. Lovelace was sum-
moned from his Office at Geary and Stock
ton streets and treated Duchesne for NOR
phine poisoning.
His treatment was not successful, and at
3 o'clock in the afternoon the sufferer was
removed 10 the Receiving Hospital. There
it was discovered that he was suffering
from cnlorOform poisoning. and Police Sur.
geon S0mers applied such vigorous treat
ment that he was soon pronounced out of
danger.
Duchesne is n bachelor and about GO
years old. He had no trouble, and it is evil
dent that he accidentally took an overdose
of the drug. For some time he had Suffered
from insomnia and had been in the habit of
taking whisky and ehlorofOrm TO produce
