EVEN a capable man who is not free
from political control is more dangerous
as a City Trustee than one less competent
intellectually, but who is not tied to the
apron strings of bosses. We ought to
keep in mind to-day that six men in the
Board of Trustees who are under obliga-
tions to the ward autocrats will consti-
tute the city government. and that they
will be merely the proxies of the politi-
cal whip-crackers. But there are capa-
BILE, free men in nomination in every
ward, so that if the people do not choose
wisely to-day it will not lie in their
mouths to complain if a solid six devel-
ops in the new board. and if citizens who
have causes to present to the local Legis-
lature find it necessary to consult out
side parties as to who shall fill the offices
of appointment and what ordinances
shall be repealed and what passed.

1t ought to be the verdict of the people
at the polls to-day that the time has gone
by in Sacramento when the fact that a
man is the nominee of a political party
insured his election, regardless of merit
and capability. Candidates for offices
of administration of the local affairs of
the community, the care of streets, the
direction of the police, the regulation of
business by license, the lighting of the
city. the water supply, the health ordi-
nances, the system of sewerage. the con-
servation of economy and the like, must
now and hereafter have stronger claims
on the suffrages of the people than mere
connection with this, that or the other
political party. Liberty of thought char
acterizes the people of the day. OF that
liberty is born political freedom. In
municipal government, more than any
other, is this political liberty essential to
good government, economy and business
care in the conduct of local affairs.

THERE is and of right ought to be no
politics in to-day's election. Neither
State, National nor any other political
policy hinges upon the outcome of the
election in Sacramento to determine
whom the people deem the safest men to
administer the domestic affairs Of the
city. Let no voter be led from his better
judgment by party appeals to-day. Off
GERS should be chosen with an eye single
to their fitness, their administrative
capacity and their freedom from the con-
troll of men who make ward politics a

FAULT ON BOTH SIDES.

Junius Henri Browne in a late maya
zine develops as philosopher in matri-
mouy in manner that entities his ex-
pressions to respect of men, and of women
also. Mr.. Browne holds that there is a
good deal to be said for good many men
who spend but little time in their homes.
The excuse he offers is that wives too
often fail to be companions. He dwells
mostly, however, upon the natural love
of woman to deck herself; a disposition
he does not condemn but rather COM
mends. But when the wife dresses only
for the world outside of her home the re-
suit is that the husband falls into the be-
lief that she is Indifferent to his tastes
and indifference is more to be feared
than misunderstanding and rancor. These
seldom last, but indifference is seldom
healed"
So long as the woman as the queen
of the home seeks to elicit first the
approval of the inmates of the home for
her attire, all goes well. These appeals
for admiration at home contain much Of
the secret Of her power. As Mr.. Browne
puts it, grave social, fundamental and
moral questions are bound up in a
woman's clothes. They frequently have
a significance she does not comprehend,
an influence she cannot forecast. Trivial
as they may seem they may assume mo-
mentous shape and conduce to moment
Gus results. Ii the inward history of all
the unfortunate marriages of the day
could be written, it would be seen that
the first discords of many were spawned
in clothes" He concludes with the bit
of proverbial philosophy ''that a woman
is best dressed when she looks best in the
eyes Of him who loves her."
All this is very well, and no serious
issue will be taken with the propositions
laid down. But there is another view OF
the matter that cannot be ignored. How
many husbands and members of the
family are Indifferent to the personal ap-
pearance of the wife and mother in the
home? How many woman has had the
iron enter her soul because of the appar-
ent indifference of the husband to- her
home attire? If she should seek admira-
ton at home because of her care TO ap-
pear neat and well dressed at home as
well as abroad, how much more should
the husband be quick to accord the re-
ward of such efforts.
tits not enough that he should enter
tain for the labor of the wife in this re-
gard the highest admiration; he should
make it manifest We undertake to say
that if there is blameworthiness for the
woman because Of negligent attire in the
home, there is. in nine cases of ten, equal
reason for laying at the door of the hus-
band as serious blame for failure to recog-
nize openly and in frank commentator
the right effort on her part.
Mr.. Browne is right so far as he goes in
his domestic philosophy, but he stop;
abort of the whole truth. Unappreciatec
effort is the source of as much trouble a:
the failure to deserve appreciation. Il
is not enough that the members OF th'
family appreciate in their secret hearts
the endeavor of the wife, the mother anc
the sister to command admiration; there
must be that delicate, open and sincere
expression of it that counts for so muct
and costs nothing of self-sacrifioe.

THE st. Helena Star has discovered
way to purify the press. It is specific
of that there can be no doubt. The plan
is for the good women now seeking to
gain the purihcation end by petition to
begin complete missionary work among
the people, to induce fathers and mothers
to cease reading the sensational press and
to educate their children to shun it as
they would any other unclean thing.
This proposition proceeds upon the true
plane, of course, and is that which should
underlie all reforms, namely-the correc-
ton of the tastes and morals of the people,
since upon the people all immortality and
uncIeanliness feeds. But the difficulty is
that such reformation of public morals
cannot be done piecemeal. Whatever is

PRESS VOICE.

San Jose Herald: Taking all the facts
into consideration. it does not appear un-
reasonable to demand that Congress shall
pass such laws as Will etfectually prevent
the immigration of foreigners of all ma
tions as we'll as Chinese, except under
very stringent restrictions. There is
nothing Of prescription or intolerance in
this; it is simply method of protecting
our own people from foreign competition.
aud Of relieving US of the cost of caring
for vast host of criminals and paupers
that do not properly belong to us.
Fresno ErpoSitor: The Irrigation Con-
gress has adjourned, and its members
have scattered out 10 their homes. What.
if any. good the congress has accom-
plished is not apparent, though good may
result ultimately from the general dis
cussion of the subject that took place.
The convention seemed to have had in ii
too many delegates with large-sized axes
to grind.
Oakland Times: The influence of such
criminal suggestion as is contained in the
Eyans-SOntag drama recently presented
in this city and now touring" the Pacific
Coast tor the purpose of inducing the
people to contribute to Chris Evans de-
tense fund, cannot be calculated. Especi-
ally on the minds of the young the effect
is deleterious and distinctly pernicious.
Man has need OF sensations; he loves to
be moved, and this morbid attraction OF
the criminal drama replaces the infatua-
ton of the middle ages for contests and
crimes of violence.
