A PATRIOTIC MOVEMENT.
proposed Chapter of the ssDaughte
of the American ReyoIution.,,

proposed Chapter of the s.Daughters
OF the American Revolutions
A movement is on foot looking to the
organization of a Chapter of the Society
OF the Daughters Of the American Revolu-
ton IN this city, by Mrs. Colonel A. s.
Hubbard of San Francisco, who is the
State Regent of the order for California.
1t will be remembered by the readers of
the REcoRD-UNIoN that a chapter was
organized last winter at the residence of
Mrs. General D. D. Cotton, in San Fran
cisco, which caused quite a patriotic
movement among the old American
families of San Francisco, and created
quite ripple in the social atmosphere
This chapter (Sequoia) is increasing in
membership, and numbers on its roll
some OF the most prominent and infu-
ential people of that city.
Mrs. Benjamin Harrison, wife of the
President OF the United States, is the
President eneral OF the National Soci-
ETY. at Washington, d. G. Mrs. Leland
Stanford and Mrs. Henry MacLean
Martin Of san Francisco are honorary
Regents for California, and Mrs. William
Aivord is the local Regent for Sequoia
Chapter.
Any lady who is descended from an
ancestor who rendered material aid to
the cause of independence as a recognized
patriot, as soldier or sailor, or as civil
officer In one OF the several colonies or
states or of the United Colonies or
States" is eligible to membership.
Ladies desiring further information
relating to the aims and objects OF the
association will please address Mrs. A.

THOSE LADY ANALYSTS.
Not So Gufleless Nor So Scientific a
They Appear.

They Appear.
Several Creston housekeepers, since
the departure of the female baking pow
der agents, have repeated the tests per-
formed by the girls, handling the cans
and glasses themselves, and failed to de-
tect the smell or presence of anything
wrong in their old favorite brand, the
Royal, as the girls did. Can it be possi-
BILE those sweet girls, in the interest of
humanity, would 'tsalt'' the Royal with q
little drug? Try the trick yourself, but
try a fresh can, for fear your old one is
not ''pure." Ii the girls had hold of it
something might accidentally have
dropped from under their fingernails into
the can.-Creston, Ia, Gazette.
From an examination of the so-called
tests of those or similar parties in this
place it appears that they are mere tricks.
An effort is made to destroy the baking
powder found in the home and to get an
order for that which they are peddling.
The samples OF their own powder used
for comparative tests are found by chem
zeal analysis TO have been prepared espe-
cially for the purpose. They are none of
them pure. The method adopted by
these testers to sell goods, by circulating
filthy stories, palpably absurd, against a
baking powder we'll known to be pure
and wholesome, is sufficient evidence of
the character of themselves and their
goods to induce consumers to let them
pass.-San Francisco Chronicle.
In this vicinity, where the visiting la
dies performed the same legerdemain as
is above referred 10, they made very few
converts, though at first they frightened
some timid housekeepers. 1t is rather in
the line OF contemplate business. and
proves, if anything at all, that the article
they were representing could not stand
the test in an honest and open contest
with competitors.

THE PROPER SPIRIT.

Mr.. j. f. Davis, the Republican nomi-
nee for Congress in this district, is to open
the campaign on the evening of Septem-
Der Sd, beginning at Stockton. He will
be accompanied by Hon. Grove l.. John
son, who contested with Mr.. Davis for
the nomination. The canvass of the dis
trict will probably be the most thorough
and exhaustive ever made in this section
of the State. Mr.. Davis proposes to meet
face to face all the voters of the district, if
1t is possible to do so. He is showing the
same fine generalship in planning his
campaign that he displayed in securing
his nomination against so strong a candi-
date as the gentleman who was pitted
against him. That contest proved Mr..
Davis to be an admirable organizer, and
TO be possessed Of remarkable vigor and
of strong persuasive powers. His cam
paign will unquestionably be one of un-
usual vivacity and interest.
Mr.. Johnson has shown fine spirit in
rendering his services to Mr.. Davis. It
proves that an honorable contest for party
favors need not and should not estrange
men, much less withdraw defeated can
didate from support of the party. Mr..
johnson made hot contest for the nomi-
nation, but Mr.. Davis received the honor.
In conformance with his volunteered
pledge to canvass for the Congressional
ticket no matter who was nominated.
Mr.. Johnson now comes forward and ten
ders to Mr.. Davis his assistance, and it is
accepted in the same spirit in which the
offer was made.
The incident is worthy of consideration
by any party membership that suffers
defeat within the party. When a do
mestic contest is engaged in, fought out
and ended within party limits, the de-
feated who are sincere in belief do not
forget that the party has claims upon
them for support superior to all personal
ambition. The man who is truly at
tached to the principles of party is not
DETECTED from his duty to it because he is
not successful in securing the favor of it's
nomination. He is not laggard because
he'is not made banner-bearer.

minent. 1t will be very difficult to main
tain watch along the gulf line of our
country. In no other coast section is
there such inefficient service of the
Federal Government. Railways has been
so. Customs regulations are more lax,
quarantine rules least enforced and ports
of entry least guarded against incoming
of the contraband. Just why the news
should be received in Vera Cruz and not
in the United States is singular, and gives
ground for the hope that it is false. But
II the cholera has reached Havana it will
not be ten days before it will step across
the narrow expanse of water and an
nounce itself in Florida. This may,
without incurring the stigma OF alarmist,
be safely forecast by anyone familiar with
the traffic and communication between
the Gulf States and Cuba. There is not
Southern port to-day in a condition to
repel the plague. Invariably the South
ern Gulf towns are negligent of sanitary
science and careless about health regula-
tions. Not even the threat of cholera
invasion will make Florida, Mississippi
or Louisiana Gulf cities and towns take
| the precautions they should. In any one
of them the cholera fiend will find con-
genial lodgings and breeding places.

AT last the machinery has been well set
box the question of levee improvement.
The necessary ordinance has been passed
by the unanimous vote of the City Trus-
tees, declaring levee work to be essential
to city safety. This viii be followed by
the necessary ordinance reciting the char
acter of the proposed work and its cost,
with Specifications, etc., and ordering
submitted to vote Of the people the
question of issuing 100000 of bonds to
yet to be passed and occasions another
delay, possibly of a couple of weeks, a
fact greatly to be regretted. Had the es-
sential steps for the submission of the
question of levee Improvement been
taken in June last when the RECORD
UNION presented the facts in the case and
pointed out the need for action, work
upon the levees would now be progress
ing. Authoritative bodies move slowly,
weightily authoritative. But they have
acted at last, and with energy that is
worthy of all commendation. 1t is now
possible to get to an election and to work
on the levees by October 1st. We will have
one full month before any considerable
amount of rain will fall, in all proba-
bility, and it may be possible to advance
the work well into the month of Novem-
Der. We do not expect to see it COM
pleted this year; that would, under the
conditions, be too much to expect. But
at least the hight of the low portions can
it will not, at least, flow upon the top of
the front levee.

THE Canadian press is attempting to
construe the retaliation proclamation OF
President Harrison into a snub to Mr..
Gladstone. Was anything ever more ab-
surd? The Canadians knew long ago
that If the Welland tolls were not taken
off the law would compel the President
10 issue the proclamation. Even if he
desired to withhold he did not have the
power to do it, except he violated his
sworn duty. Mr.. Gladstone has not as
yet made the British lion roar, and we
doubt if the royal beast will even so
much as wink an eye in relation to the
matter. Canadians have themselves
alone to blame, and all their efforts TO
drag the mother country into the wran-
gle will probably be Intellectual. But if
the new Cabinet should be so complacent
as to take UP the Canadian quarrel. what
oft? 1t will be likely to recall that the
growing and roaring of its predecessor
IN the matter of the Behring Sea affair
did not scare Uncle Sam particle. The
truth is that Canadian authority has for
the past few years been greatly troubled
with enlargement of the head. It was
manifest in the defiance in Behring Sea,
IN the bait trouble and in the off-shore
fishery issue and in the prodding of Eng
land to quarrel with the United States.
1t would really be much better for the
United States if England would under
take to deal with her in this latest matter
directly, for Mr.. Gladstone does not lose
his temper and he is not troubled with
the enlargement that aff1icts the Canadian
officials.

1t is now evident that it was not Mr..
Blaine who stuck in the craw of the

been in ever CHASING the Post as favor

For PRESIDENT
OF THE UNITED STATES:

ID believe that every ounce of
silver that is dug under the American
flag should be coined free under the
American flag. In my country they
are mostly on the other side. They
are with tho BANKERS, with the rich
fellows. They get together and say
we want GOLD. A man makes con-
tract to pay certain moneys in five
yeats. want law so that he can
pay the money when the contract
comes due, with thu money that was
money when he made the contract. l
do not think the few should have the
right TO combine to increase the value
Of what people call money as against
the debtor and in favor Of the creditor.
l want the free coinage Of all the
silver that you can win from the mines
of America, and If there are those
who are not willing to take silver we
will not trade with them" -Robert

The SILVER BILL.

Nothing disturbs the money market,
aud action III Congress on silver is not
expected to amount to anything. The
Treasury has paid out $500, 900 more
money than it has taken in during

ports of gold, though London is now
selling American stocks again on ac>
count OF some foreign failures. Mer.
chandise exports are large, and for
three weeks have exceeded last years
s4,5OO,OO0, or III per cent, while the
increase in imports over last year is
small.
The above is an extract from R. G j..
Dun & Co.'S circular for May 2Sth,
which would lead one to infer that
Wall street is confident that il has
silver throttled for the present.

ton is full Of uncertainty. Tho ILL
