PROPOSED CANDIDATES.

We are now about to be furnished with
candidates by our bosses to be voted for at
the approaching election for city officers
OF course the public cannot expect TO be
favored with acceptable candidates by the
bosses. but ii must not be taken for granted
that all Of the candidates will be bOodIers
whose names Will be given to US. The
bosses viii select just enough candidates for
Supervisors 10 give the boodlers control of
that body as has been done for some years
past. Probably about the time nominations
are made by Kelly, Crimmns IL Co., some
gentlemaUly agent OF the Southern Pacific
railroad Company will appear and, under
the DTetense of making the nomination of
the party eminently respectable, viii ask
that certain names be placed upon the
ticket. II this plan should prove success
ful il viii perhaps result in securing the
election OF Kelly and Crimmins candidates
and also assses the railroad organization.
We are also led 10 make these remarks
from reading the following paragraph which
has just apr cared in print:
L is now reported that Kelly aud Crimmins
VIII nominate for Mayor either J. b. Stetson or
John Nightingale or some man Of that kind.
Dir. Stetson stands well in this COM
munity. but we Go not see what use he
could be to the public in the position of
Mayor # San Francisco. His name would
probably give some assistance to the Kelly
and Crimmins ticket In any controversy
with the railroad company, however, he
could do nothing, for he has such large in
terests which might be jeopardized by the
railroad managers that he could scarcely
act Independently if elected Mayor. H.
deed, Mr.. Stetson resigned his position as
president Of the Traffic Association for the
reason, as be said, that he could not go into
politics. 1t will not answer for San Fran
cisco to take it for granted that Kelly and
CrimmiBs candidates will be suitable to be
supported for city officers at the approach
ing election.

Francis Cation, well-known figure at
meetings of the British Association for the
Promotion of Science, suggests that flash
signals by means of number of mirrors
should be made with view of learning
whether there are any inhabitants In Mars.
If such there be, they might see the signals
made on earth and respond in some fashion,
perhaps superior to our own. There are
plenty of wealthy men In the world, and
they could, without impOyerishine them
selves, cover the whole surface of England
with mirrors for this purpose, but it is very
unlikely that any of them will g. TO the ex-
pense even upon the advice of Mr.. Cation,
who is well known as an enthusiast in an
thropometrc statistics. Yet speculation is
whetted TO know what sort Of life exists on
Mars, If there be any. 1t by no means fol-
lows that were there beings as intellectual
as ourselves on Mars. they would have the
same physical shape. But the human range
of ideas is so limited by environment that we
cannot imagine a new form genuinely sep
arated from things We do see. Swift did
not succeed in leaving the earth when he
wrote "GuIliyer." nor did "Caxton" Rhodes

A FEARFUL WARNING.

The Examiner has reached the conclusion
that the campaign committee of the Demo-
cratic party was not managing affairs with
the single intent to serve the party that might
be expected of professed reformers. Our
contemporary was little slow in arriving at
this conclusion. but as it saw the crowd
going that way, it thought it well to join the
procession. That journal Is, however, still
inclined to the wicked partner theory 1t
says: That the gentlemen in whose integ-
rity we had put our faith have been recreant
TO the high responsibilities which they as
sumed, we neither declare nor believe. But
there has been gathered into the movement
for the reorganization Of the party all classes
Of men with all kinds of desires, and
actuated with every variety of notion"
Tits means. of course, that the wicked
partners have outlived the gentlemen in
whose Integrity we (the EIdDliner) had put
Faith" Now for the particular sin which
calls forth this timely warning. We again
quote from our contemporary: at is also
said that the executive committee intends
to appoint an election board composed
entirely of men who have been
actively engaged in pushing the re-
organizstion movement and in building it
up, TO the exclusion Of all other Democrats,
however respectable or numerous" In
other words. the reorganization wing of the
party proposes to shut ont what is known
as the Buckley wing. This may be little
hard on the Buckley wing, but there is an
old adage. which teaches that turn about
is fair play" The Buckley wing did not in
the days of their power put the other wing
in the inner councils of the party. There is
ono Safo course open to our contemporary. 1t
can join in a movement TO nominate in an
,ndependent hammer a full legislative and
municipal ticket The wicked partners"
in the reorganization OF the Democrats are
pretty certain to run the movement They
may be wicked, but they are practical
politicians. 1t is sad to see reetitude
crushed to earth, but the thing has happened
before. The better way is to come out from
the crowd Of sinners before coming out will
be too late.
