Worlds Fair Commissioners. point out
to them the want of interest in the fair
in the northern and central counties, and
the means for aWaking the public spirit
OF the people OF Northern California.
They met to-day in the Grand Hotel and
drew up resolutions, which their Chair
man, Mr.. Fulweiler, presented to the
Com mISSiOnerS at "a conference later III
the day. The resolutions recommended
that the Worlds Fair Commission pro-
vide for an Advisory Committee, to con-
SiSt of one member from each county to
meet and act with the Worlds Fair Com
mission once every month until the close
Of the exhibition at Chicago.
RESOLUTIONS We're also recommended
that the Worlds Fair Commission APP
prOpriate the sum OF s., 600, which, with
the sum OF $4,000 subscribed by the In
dustrial Association of Sacramento, is to
be used by said association in collecting
exhibits from the State al large TO be eX
hibted at the State Eair in 1897 and to be
available for exhibition at the Worlds
Fair III Chicago.
There was considerable discussion over
these points at the conference, but moth
ing definite was accomplished. The COM
mission viii meet tomorrow to take
action on these and other matters. 1t
was stated that the impression was gen.
eral throughout the county that the COM
iIllr>oiC4t llAS ltItSS ItiSiiS W
pick out what II thought tIrSt-ciaSs, ship
tho selected articles East and neglect the
rest.
The opposition to this motion was great,
many OF the county associations having
declared that they would not endeayor TO
make a display If such a course was
to be adopted.
Mr.. Hatch declared that he could not
see how such'an Impression could have
gone abroad, and President Scott hastened
TO explain that it was erroneous. The
State, 1t was true, was going to make an
exhibit as State, and for that purpose
the commission desired that the counties
would bring forward the best they had, out
in the State building each county would
have space allotted it, and in that space
might exhibit as it saw fit.
Tnis was agreeable TO the gentlemen
from the interior, and the conference
broke up with mutual good wishes from
all present.

I Cleveland and benjamin Harrison, the
people gave their voice for the latter,
through the electoral college, by odds
Of 233 to I6s,
Now, four years later being again
called upon to determine the samo
question Of electlng tho same men to
the same office, they reverse their for
iner decision, and by odds Of, appar-
emily, 279 to 1o2, declare that they
want the man whom they rejected in
1888.
President Harrison and his policies
have had fair trial for four years, and
this verdict Of tho people, so emphatic
ally against them, IS conclusive. As to
the man, nothing can be said against
him. He Is honest enough and manly
enough. He is the same now that he was
when named as the first ohoicein 1888. So
as to Cleveland. Ho is tho same man
now as then. This revolution in pub
lie sentiment cannot have been brought
about by any dislike OF President Har-
rlson, or new fondness for Cleveland.
Tho principles the Republican presi-
dent represents, and the party whose
representative he Is, are the objects
upon which tho American people have
turned and signided their disapproyal.
Most conspicuous Of the principles Of
tho Republican party is that Of tar
IN for tho sake Of protection, and chief
among It's policies is the enactment Of
a force bill 20 turn the control OF elect
ions over to Federal marshals. These
President Harrison championed, and
his party went before the people asking
their favor for the Mckinley bill and
the force bill. II Is not within human
power 10 express more positively disap-
proyal Of thing than the peoples an
swer gives to this appeal. They want no
McIanley tariff, and they want no force
bill.
Keeping these facts In mind, the
Democrats, who, for the first time since
1855, are intrusted with the absolute
guidance Of national affairs, have no
need for any othermonitor.
