Logical Candidates for the Presidency.

Logical Candidates for the Presidency.
Mr.. CLEVELAND was last year so unmis-
takably recognized as the logical candi-
date" of the Democratic party for Presi-
dent Of the United States that nothing
could stand between him and the noninn-
ton Of the Chicago convention. AS
thrones and empires 'oppled over when
the great NAPOLEON entered upon the work
Of conquerIng Europe, so State conven-
tions and district conventions and popular
pssembages fell into the grand procession
of 1892 and marched. some of them almost
as captiyes, at the head Of that imposing
demonstration in favor of CLEVELAND.
The current was irresistible. Tho people
had made up their minds that he mast be
returned TO the White House, aud returned
he was.
Upon the fact that HARRISON was defeat
cd by CLEVELAND in 1899 as CLEVELAND was
defeated by HARRISON IN 1888, liARnIsoNs
friends base their contention that be Will
be recognized IN 1896 rs the logical oandi-
date of the Republicans and will 60 into
Office again backed 10y such public senti-
ment as that upon which CLEVELAND rode
triumphantly INTO the executive chair last
ycar. But this is linking things to one
another which are totally dissimilar. It's
t. assume that HARRISON could IN some
way so change his nature as to appear be-
fore the public as a general or universal
favorite. But this il Just what he cannot
do. "1he stars in their courses" never
fight for such men as HARRISON. We re-
spect him. and credit him with having
been conscientious President, but we
cannot so much as imagine that he Will
ever appear before the voters again rs n
candidate His career Is ended. The re-
cord Of his political life has been COM
ploted.
The Tammany men are said 20 have de-
tlared that the enthusiasm which FlTz
JKE evoked in Washington last Saturday

ton from the people all along the line was

The Rroad.Street Cars.

Between certain hours Of the day the
Gain-street cars are greatly crowded.
The plan OF running cars in couples TO ac-
commodatc its patrons is beng tried by
the company. aud meets with fair success,
bu, We should suppose that it is tearing to
pieces the pinions Of the machinery,
judging by the great Jars made when the
coupled cars start or stop, TO say nothing

we know, where street-cars are not densely
packed at certain hours. Even the

MIR. CLEVELAND and Hawaii.

Times change and we change with Them
and Mr.. CLEVELAND has as much right to
change his opinions as anybody else. We
do not know how he stands affected TO-
wards the projected annexation scheme
under which HAWAII Is to become part OF
the United States. but we inferred from
his failure to mention the subject IN his
inaugural address that he was probably IN
favor of annexation. He is on record,
however, on the other side OF the question.
In his message Of 1885 he said:
Maintaining, as do the tencis OF line OF
prcrcdonts from WashingtOn's day, which pro
scribe entangling alliances with foreign states,
do not favor policy Of acquisition OF new and
distant territory, or the Incorporation Of remote
interests with our own
It NAV be claimed that Hawaii Is not
"new and distant territory" seeing that
it Is not as far from San Francisco as San
Francisco is from Washington. Nor are
the interests involved in the Hawaiian
treaty remote interests seeing that
thov come home even TO the breakfast
tables of the people Of the United States.
In fact. the men who own and control
most of the interests in the Sandwich
Islands are Americans-citlzens of the
United States.

The patent on the BELL telephone re-
ceiver expired on Tuesday. The patents
on the BLAKE transmitter had already run
out by limitation Of foreign patents. 1t is
believed. however, as we learn from the
New York Herald that the BELL people
will still make fight on the ground that
any rivals transmitter would be an in
fringement on EMIL BERLNER's micro
phonic telephone transmitter. which was
patented November II, 1891. for seventeen
years, and the rights of which they own.

THE LADY AND THE GUARD.
There Was Trouble Because of An
noying Street Calls.


She was plump aud she was 40. but as a
woman is never older than she feels she
was 20. She wore widows weeds with that
iaunty air that says distinctly: Il sorrow,
but Will soon be comforted."
With another woman she got on Sixth
avenue elevated train. bound down town,
at Fourteenth street. She had strident
voice, and when she spoke to her companion
she took every one in the car into her con-
fidence.
Eyes. my DEAR she said, what you
heard Is true. | am about TO be married
again. Why not? / surely have been sim
gularly fortunate and singularly happy
until death stepped in. My first husband
you knew. My second was his peer in ev-
erything. My next will certainly be the
'Eighthp bawled the guard, who, for q
wonder, spoke distinctly.
A girl. who had been listening with her
mouth open. burst out laughing. Several
men hid their heads in their newspapers
The hereayed oBe glared at the all-innCcent
guard. but when the train went on she did.
"My next will certainly be the equal OF
either OF them in every manly and amiabe
quality. He has promised to take me to
Europe after our marriage IN December.
What contrast to last winter! Poor. poor
James was dying then. hate to recall it.
IL was an awful winter"
"rhe next will be Bleeekerl" yelled the
guard, poking his head in the door.
And the guard donsn't know to this min
ute why she told him as she swept out at
"Bleecker" that she would report him.

Berkeley.

4 daring burglary, evidently the work OF
experts has just been made pablo, as the
officers eniOined secrecy, that they might
work the better. Last week the residence
OF David Loring, director Of the Loring
Musical Club Of San Francisco. which is at
the corner of Charming way and Dana
street. was entered from the rear, and
jewels. money and yaluables to the amount
Of over $500 stolen. The family were all
asleep at the time. The burglars entered
the rear window and went out the front
door when they had sacked the house.
Miss Mary II. Gilmore, 49, who had to
leave college several months ago on account
of writer's paralysis, Is back al her work.
Berkeley occupies strange position. At
present she IL practically bankrupt. having
not a dollar in her treasury to meet liza bill
ties until the exporting of the books OF
Town Treasurer Ham will enable her 10
draw upon his bondsmen. The county
school appOrtiOnment and the tax collections
will meet her running expenses. perhaps.
The populations of Town Treasurer Ham
present n most peculiar case in the list OF
entertainments. Il seems that large share
OF the blame can be laid TO Haun's faulty
system of bookkeeping, in which he did not
keep separate his own and the towns ac-
counts, and yet the deficit is so large that
the explanation cannot be accepted as COW
ering the matter. The OaklRnd bank. in
which the funds were deposited, allowed
Treasurer Ham to overdraw his ac-
count to a large extent, surprising it
was merely advancing him funds until
the town collections would be in. The
clerks books show that there should be
$4,000 in the Treasurer's hands. The bank
has less than 5000 on deposit. making a
shortage of $4,000. Mr.. Ham has first
borrowed from the town $1,000 10 purchase
a lot on which he built the Ham block by
aid Of the Loan Association, taking of the
town funds $1,000 more 10 complete the
building.
Some Shattuck-avenue property caused
him TO write check for $500 on tile Berke-
ley treasury, the furniture Of the Ham
block drew out $500 more, and refrigeI-
ator in his butcher shop the town loaned
him $500 TO build. Is seems that the deficit
will be decreased $4,000 by credits Of paid
bonds and coupons. leaving the shortage
$4,000. His assets are sufficient to meet
all the demands, and at present his property
is in the hands OF his bondsmen.

the Peralta Hall Seminary for young ladies,
