air. We sometimes hear the remark
that, should Mr.. Cleveland be nomi-
mated, he may have to encounter some
opposition in his own state. This may
or may not he the case. The incipient
Democratic quarrel may wind up in q
love feast in view of Mr.. Cleveland's q
manifest and overwhelming strength in
the country at large. Tammany knows
on which side its bread is but
tered. But Mr.. Harrison, on the other
hand, has fight on his hands in pretty
much all the states. He received his
nomination, in the main, from common
wealths that vote solidly Democratic,
and without the votes of the Office
holders and the colored delegates from
the south he would have been nowhere
in the Minneapolis convention. The
current remark OF the day is that any
body can beat Harrison. There ls an
instructive sagacity amongst the masses
that is often crystalliaed in just such ex-
pressions. The air is pregnant with in
timations of Democratic victory. The
excessesrof the Mckinley bill and of the
billion-dollar congress are pretty sure tc
be redressed in the early days of the
coming November.

SCHOOL MATTERS.
THE UNION AVENUE RETAINING
WALL MATTER.
Investigation Ordered-Teachers' Res-
ignations Aocepted-A Pooh Bah
Of Janitor Disznissed.

The board of education held its regu.
lar meeting last evening, President
Kierulf in the chair.
Clara Stoltenberg, Agnes L. McClair
and Louis F. Thorpe's designations Of
teachers were accepted.
The clerk was instructed to advertise
for plans for additions to the Hayes
street school and for supplies for the
year.
A flagstaff was ordered for the Ches.
nut street school.
DR.. Hitchcock moved to refer to some
committee the classification of teachers
salaries for the ensuing year. Several
members objected to said reference. az
it would delay action. An amendment
was then offered to adopt the schedule
of salaries as in vogue last year. This
amendment prevailed. .s
Mr.. Marsh announced that he had
suspended the janitor of the Ninth
street school, E. B. Bailey, for neglect
of duty. The chair declared that the
janitor suspended was i'll and not really
responsible for his deYeliction. DIR.
Boal moved to approve the action of the
janitors' committee. Mr.. Bailey was
accordingly discharged.
Mr.. Marsh submitted to the board a
charge made that there has been a di-
rect violation of the law by the school
board, in the construction of the retain
ing wall about the Union.avenue school
lot. 1t was claimed that this wall cost
about $1,000, that no bids were adver-
tised for and that no specifications were
prepared.
General Mansfield and DR.. Hitchcock
declared that they had not been MEM
bers of the board when the work was
ordered. DR.. Barber said he was out of
town at the time. Mr.. Marsh explained
that the work had been placed under
the control of Mr.. Wilmer, of the ward
in which the school is located.
The charge further was that Mr.. Ak
tell, janitor of the high school. was at
the same time drawing pay as janitor of
the high school and "a a day as con-
structor of the retaining wall. Mr.. Ak
tell appeared before the board and &C.
knowledged that such had been the
case.
Mr.. A. A. Henry, the chief of jani-
tors, claimed that he knew about it, and
had told Mr.. Marsh.
The latter gentleman most emphat-
ically denied this. and maintained that
if Mr.. Axtell received any pay he is not
entitled to he ought to be compelled to
give it up.
General Mansfield, DIR. Hitchcock and
DR.. Boal were appointed special COM
mittee to investigate these charges.
General Mansfield presented, before
adjournment, resolution, that in order
to prevent confusion, no committee,
officer, member nor employee Of the
board should incur any indebtedness be-
fore obtaining the sanction of the board.
Several members held that there are
emergencies in which the conditions
proposed by this resolution would cause
a delay which might be greatly incon-
venient. The resolution, however, was
unanimously adopted.
The board then adjourned.
Los Angeles herald., 1892-06-21

There is something very jug-handled
in the policy of the Republican leaders
on most public questions. Mr.. Springer,
Democrat, introduced bill admitting
North and South Dakota, Montana,
Idaho, Wyoming and Washington as
states. They were all understood to be
Republican in sentiment, with possibly
the exception of Idaho and Montana.
If it had not been for the cordial action
of Democrats these new commonwealth
could not have been created. When it
comes to the question of the admission
of Arizona and New Mexico however,
there is a downright opposition in Re-
publican circles on the plain ground
that the new states would probably
elect Democratic United States senators,
and thus menace the aseendancy of tho
Republican party in that body. Lead
ing Republican papers, like the st. Louis
Globe Democrat, have not hesitated to
advise the Republican senators to an
tagonize the house bill admitting these
territories to statehood, on that partizan
ground. The Democratic party has re-
ceived very little encouragement for the
magnanimous policy which it has uni
formly pursued. Away back in 1879
it admitted Colorado, which was known
to have Republican predictions on the
eve of presidential election, and yet it
was the three electoral votes OF Colorado
which made the conspiracy to declare
Hayes elected possible. The people
have no sympathy with auch narrow
programme.

ediace devoted to mines and mining, the
administration building, the fisheries
b0ilding, and others which do not call
for REORGANIZATION. The woman's
building fails to make specially pleas
ant impression upon the visitor. II
is plain to the point of mean
nese. Take the edifce as a
whole, however, and the impress
sion will be one of Cyclopean splendor.
Ruskin says that no building can have
any dignity unless it is of stone or mar
BILE. He imperiously rejects stucco.
According to this fastidious standard
the exposition structures must be ruled
out Of the esthetic lines, but, as mat
ter of fact, the architects are employing
for their ornamentation species of
stucco which is called "staff." At q
distance it has the appearance of a rich
yellow sandstone; and, like any other
stucco, it admits of much handsome
relieve work. Ia fact, it's use in these
buildings affords an instance in which
dignity is derived from it's manifest util-
ity and convenience.
All these structures, with the excep-
tion of that devoted to the fine arts, will
be torn down when the exposition is
over. This will result in an extent and
variety of architectural Aotsam and
jetsam probably never paralleled in the
history OF the world. As the fine arts
building is to be permanent it is @ sub
stantial affair, built of brick, and it
will probably receive coat of stucco.
It is sometimes intimated in envious
quarters that the Chicago exposition
may turn out to be failure. We see
nothing to justify any such idea. On
the contrary, the indications are that it
will surpass anything of the kind in the
worlds history. The pecuniary out
come can scarcely fail to be large beyond
precedent. The six months during
which it is proposed to keep the expo
sition going will scarcely be long enough
to satisfy its projectors or the American
people. A thorough inspection of its
varied treasures will be this equivalent
of q liberal education. r-s
When Chauncey M. Depew was doing
his best to get the Columbian exposition
for New York he said it would put three
hundred million dollars into the pockets
of the city that obtained it. MIR. De-
pew is capable Of making a very close
estimate on proposition of that kind,
and certes the modesty OF Chicago bus
| mess men will not stand in the way of
the realization of those figures.

TIE scandalous extent to which the
patronage of the presidential Office can
be used to help renominate the occu-
pant OF the White House has never been
more significantly illustrated than by
the proceedings of the Minneapolis con-
vention. Take two cardinal illustra-
tions: Mr.. John G. New, the American
consul-general at London-one of the
most remunerative posts in the gift of
the government-hurries over from
England to make Harrison's fight for
the denomination. He is aided by Mr..
Carter, another appointee of Mr.. Harri-
son who fills the fat berth of commits
sioner OF the land Office. These gentle
men not only worked for Harrison, but
they were the fuglemen of his forces and
in the thick OF the tray. OF course
there was nothing surprising in this in
view of the fact that, as Senator VOL
colt said, there were one hundred
and thirty-nine ofics-holders in
the convention which renominated
the president, but the partici-
patton of New and Carter in
the mad scramble was noteworthy not
only from their personal and official
prominence but from the circumstances
that they were obliged to neglect i'm
portant public duties to admit of their
rendering this partizan service to their
chief. The whole episode ia further out
lined by letter of President William
Henry Harrison, the grandfather OF
Benjamin, in which he takes the ground
that no president of the United States
ought to be eligible to reelection, be-
cause the temptation to abuse his power
to procure his own nomination was al
most irresistible. William Henry Har.
rison-he of grandfather's hat-said that
under no circumstances would he allow
his name to be considered for second
term. He was doubtless sincere, though
he did not live long enough to demon
strate his precept by his practice, as he
died early in his term. 1t would be sal
utary exercise for Harrison to read and
ponder the utterances OF his grandfather
on this question.

TIE city attorney, at the meeting of the
council, yesterday, stated that, on Mon
day next, he would introduce an ordi-
nance calling for an election to author
ise the issuing of s350,00o worth Of
bonds to inaugurate the new hill water
system. He reported against the con-
denanation of the Citizens company's q
water system on the ground that, it the
city should carry out its own water
scheme, it would have no use for the
companv's works.
