"oUR SHAMELESS RULERS"
The Dive Supporters ExcorIated by Rev.
A. Il. Stewart.

The Dive Supporters Excorlated by Rev.
A. Il. Stewart.
Not since the campaign has opened has
the firm of Kelly. Crimmins and De Young
met with such lagellation as was admin
istered to that corrupt and demoralzed trio
by Rev. A. B. Stewart, before crowded
congregation in the Second Presbyterian
Church last evening.
Taking his text from Hosea iv:18: "Her
rulers with shame do love. Give ye." The
eloquent speaker said: "The word ruler
In Seriptural sense, means shield for the
protection of the people. but the corrupt
rulers of Israel instead of being shield for
the people had become rulers of evil. They
had come to love give ye.' They loved
shame, and they baTtered their own honor
and the peoples interest for gold. SO helm
GUS had their offenses become that God
through the mouths OF his prophets in thun-
der tones denounced them Tor their wicked
ness.
In our own San Francisco we have living
types Of the wicked rulers of Israel. who
say to the people give us Office who say 10
the citizens give us votes. who say to the
parents give us your sons and daughters,
who say to our manhood give US moral
well-being, who say to our womaDhood
give us your virtue who say TO the church
keep quiet who say TO God keep from our
thoughts Such are the men who are now
seeking the suffrages Of the respectable
people of San Francisco.
ut is a pitiabe spectacle when twelve
citizens can be found who would sign a
petition in favor of reopening the in famous
Cremorne. And think Of Supervisors grant
ing license to such q concernl 1t is not
necessary TO visit that place TO know what
is going on in IL. We know Ii Is open, and
We also know who are responsible for that.
'As Christians you must cast your ballots
against tile party who is responsible for
such al eye sore.
Government is only secure when II stands
for truth and morality and when 1t is based
on principles that are right"
In conclusion, DR.. Stewart said: I'll you
do your duty On Tuesday you will have
rulers that you as honorable citizens can re-
Joice in rulers who will make laws that
VIII be for the benefit of the people and TO
the Interests of honor and virtue"

THE DIVE IN POLITICS.
Rev. Thomas Filbsu Indorses the Non
Partisaus.


Partisaus.
At the Bush-street Methodist Episcopal
Church yesterday morning the Rev Thomas
Filben delivered a sermon on "Ths Dive in
Politics" He chose for his text Matthew
xxii:2, "Render unto Cesar the things that
are Caesars and unto God the things that
are Gods" lie said:
IF ever a minister Of Gcd or IL ever the
church of God was called upon to take an
active part in a political campaign, such a
time is the present
Against the baneful influences of those
hell-breathing holes - the dives against
rottenness In politics and the corruption OF
boss rule, against almost everything that
threatens the peace and prosperity and hap
plness OF our city our best citizens are re-

such crisis they would be derelict in the

when San francisco boasted of its morality
In both ethics and politics we have come to
time when the saloon and the dive have
forsaken the retired hiding holes of their
infamy and haunt their iuiqGity In the light
OF day. Our manhood and womanhood, our
boys and girls, are insnlted and impeTiled
through these vice-paTading agents.

think he was running the machinery

machines. They have outgrown the par
ties. Instead of their being run by the
party the party is run by them. Is il not
high time We reyOlted? Is il not the day of
action?
This is a righteous cause. The best
element OF our people and the best inter-
ests OF our city demand its success.
Woe to the men whO oppose il!
Woe to the agencies that operate against
this just cause.
II always have been partisan and al

One Who Understands the Requirements
of His Office.
The present campaign Is not as lively as
some have been in the past, and the misfor-
tune which the nation has suffered in the
death of the FIRST lady In the land" will
certainly not tend 10 enliven the last days
of the political struggle, particularly In the
city of San Francisco But although the
battle for political preferment has been q
rather quiet one, it has nevertheless been
characterized by an earnestness OF purpose
which has clearly demonstrated that tha
majority of the citizens are determined To
elect men to Office who are the best fttod to
fulfill the requirements Of the position to
which they aspire
For this reason Charles S. Tilton probably
occupies the happiest place among the
numerous candidates whose names havs
been presented by the various parties for
the suffrage of the people. He was nomi-
mated for the position of City and County

EDITOR Sun:
1t is so long since you have received a
communication from your humble servant,
that suppose you think have forgotten
you; be assured such is not the case. Local
news have been so dull and barren of
interest in this vicinity, that anything I
might offer as news, would be treSpassing
on your valuable columns. To give views
on the political outlook of the coming
campaign is yet early in the season; in
dications point to lively contest and the
peoples party, may work a surprise on
some of the Political Bosses who have so
often manipulated and controlled the
election. Their is, however, one question
that at this particular season should more
than any other, interest the farmers, viz:
Good roads on the prairie, which we have
not, and am afraid shall never have, as
long as the present system of appointing
annually road OverseerS to each road
district, instead of having the same let out
by contracts to responsible parties and a
just and equitable assessment levied to
successfully carry out the same. If we are
going to have wet season the coming fall
it will be impossible to market our cereals.
Would it not be wise to call special town
meetings to take action on the same? I
have just introduced this question that it
may be fully discussed SO that the best
methods may be adopted.

of the Roman arena, the exciting
four-horse chariot races, the marvellous

Licensing Engineers.

The question of licensing engineers
is being SO agitated in every state in
the Union that within a short time,
for the protection of human lives, it
will be impossible for anyone
intrusted with steam to hold or Sc
cure a situation without passing a
rigid examination and obtaining a
license. Stephenson's Illustrated
Practical Test has beed published to
aid engineers preparing to pass such
examination, and as it embraces all
the questions asked on the boiler,
pump, engine, dynamo, Corliss en-
CINE, ETC., it has already met with
such demand that it is now in it's
fourth edition. This work, which
only costs 81, can be obtained of the
