The Express says that Mr.. Patton's
only claim to the congressman's seat
from this district lies in the fact that he
is Senator Whites man. His claim
lies in the fact that he is energetic, in
dustrious and capable, three qualities
that have raised Mr.. White to senator
OF the United States and the peer OF
any man in the land. The came road is
open TO Mr.. Patton. who is making the
strongeat canvass ever made by any
Democratic nominee in this district. II
Mr.. White sees fit to lend his support TO
a young man who is brilliant, plucky,
energetic and self-reliant, we are at
loss to understand why the senator
should De censured for it.

THE NEW YORK WHEELER CON-
TINGENT.

The Republican anticipation of O
large Democratic diversion in New York
to Everett P. Wheeler as against the
regular nominee. Senator Hill, in the
three-cornered gubernstorisl contest
now on in that state, is unlikely, in our
opinion, to be realized or made manifest
in the general result Mr.. Wheeler is a
personal acquaintance of the writer and
has long commanded our admiration,
both on the score of his high character
and his acknowledged ability as law
yer; but he is not we'll known outside
OF New York city. He will, no doubt,
az ex-president Of the Civil Services Re-
form league. command almost the en-
tire mugwump and independent vote OF
the state. But this vote, with Mr..
Wheeler out of the way, would largely
gravitate to Mr.. Morton. The state of
New York is heavily Democratic on a
full vote, and there is little reason to
doubt that the drive" against Senator
Hill will bring out the country admir-
ers OF the ex-governor, and that the
rank and file of the party will rally to
mis- standard without serious detection.

ROSS ON RAILROADS.

The people of California again are to
be con graduated. United States Dis
trict Judge Ross handed down yesterday
an opinion which will be found else
where and which is OF the very first i'm
portsnce to the state OF California, as it
loosens another OF the tentacles which
the octopus corporation has for years
fastened upon the progress and develop.
ment of the state. 1t will be recalled
by all fair minded persons that Dsmo-
cratic congress- in 1887 forfeited the un-
earned land grants to railroads which q
generous and possibly excited congress
during the throes of the civil war offered
for the building OF transcon tinental
roads from the public domain. These
grants were in themselves empires.
Among others was the grant to the
Atlantic and Pacific railroad, which has
been immortslizsd in Huntington's in
terssting and indiacreet letters to his
partner, Cotton This grant the
Southern Pacific company, with its
usual rapacity, attempted to and for
Bome years succeeded in gobbling up.
A Democratic administration instituted
suits on behalf of the United States in
1888 to recover these ntolen lands for the
public, and Judge Ross few days prior
to the late railroad strike ordered some
300. 600 acres of land illegally held by
the Southern Pacific restored to the
public domain. The corporation, after
submitting for nearly seven years in this
litigation to the jurisdiction of
the federal court for this dis
trict. suddenly discovered that their
alleged righta to the stolen lanGs could
be better protected else where. and 30,
lately, in a suit pending by the govern
ment against this same corporation for
lands granted to the Texas and Pacific
railroad, and sought also to be gobbled
up by the Southern Pacific, the latter
fled pleas to the jurisdiction OF Judge
Rosa court and asked that the cases be
transferred to San Francisco. The emf
nent jurist who honors the federal bench
in this city has just denied the railroads
right to select its own tribunal, and
hence the people OF California are to be
congratulated in possessing in Judge
Ross an honest judge and in George j..
Denis an incompatible and able repre-.
sentative OF the judicial department o!
the federal government.
The handwriting on the wall ia becom-
Ing daily more legible. Let Mr.. Hunt
ington take notice.

PATTON'S CAMPAIGN.

George S. Patton is meeting with a
fattering reception in the northern end
of his congressional district. His meet
ings are not swelled by people brought
in on special trains supplied by the
Southern Pacific, as were those OF
McLachlan at Santa Cruz, Watsonville,
Salinas, San Luis Ooispo and other
places, but the people pour out to hear
him because his reputation has pre-
ceded him, aud he handles the railroad
question in such plain, ineligible
manner that all who hear may under
stand. He has not been compelled to
consult any railroad bosses as to what be
shall say. but expresses himself fear
lessly on all the Issues of the campaign.
McLachlan has permission to discuss
the railroad question as far as is thought
advisable by Lindley, Weber and com.
pany, his sponsors, and is even allowed
to give an equivocal, half-hearted in
dorsement of San Pedro harbor. which,
of course, no one believes who is aware
OF the fact that Mr.. Huntington's even
ing organ is supporting him.

DEMOCRATS AND THE MAYOR
ATTY.

The Democratic party will not lack
good timber for mayor. judging by the
names which are suggested for nomina-
ton by the coming city convention.
Among them are the following: Kaspare
Kohn, William Lacy. A. M. Stephens,
W. G. KerckhoH. 7. +. Rowan. Captain
Howell, formerly OF Howell & Craig;
John Chanslor. w. A. Ryan. Frank
Sabichi and DR.. Kurtz. Out of the
above list it will not be hard to select
winning candidate and man who pos
sesses ell the requisite, for making
good mayor.
Under all circumstances a frst.class
man should be selected; he should be
progressive. honest and intelligent. But
under the present charter of our city the
mayor can do little more than cry stop
thief. II he has corrupt council and
a bad Get of city officers. he can merely
call attention to their delinquencies.
1t is a matter OF first Importance TO
enlarge his power; give him the APP
pointment Of all commissions and heads
of departments, and then hold him re-
sponsibls for their acts.

THE CAUSE or THE PANIC.

Franklin MacVeagh is pouring redhot

in that triumph any reason for the panic
and hard times which are now passing

A CROWDED STREET,

Complaints Against Leaving Teams on
Second Street.
Complaint is being made every day
about the way Second street between
Spring and Broadway is blocked by
teams and electric cars at about every
hour of the day.
Teams are hitched along each side of
the streat, and when the electric cars,
sometimes two at time, stop for two
or three minutes on the street between
the teams, this much uaed thorough
fare becomes choked, and often people
are put to considerable trouble and
placed in considerable danger by the
blockade.
The other day the conveyance OF the
fire chief was driven down Second from
Broadway at a rayid rate, and when half
way to Spring Chief Moriarty discov.
cred that the passage was effectually
blocked by teams and cara, and he was
obliged, though on ais way to fire. to
turn around and go down Broadway one
more block.
The police must certainly see the
need of keeping this street clear, for it
is in front OF the central station almost
that the trouble occurs.
