INDEPENDENT VOTING.
Modesto Timesl
The tendency OF the voters to exercise
their right OF suffrage independent of
party considerations, so far as municipal
anu county officers are concerned, is be-
coming SO pronounced that even the pur-
bllnd are forced TO recognize IL. That this
IS the case Is cause Tor congratulation.
The citizen who votes for those whom he
considers the best men for the various
county and municipal offices performs
not only duty he owes himself, but a
duty he owes his fellow-citizens. The
man who boasts that he never scratched
the party ticket" is no longer looked upon
as citizen to be proud OF. In fact, he is
invariably, II mentally, set down as an
lgDoramus or worse.
WHICH ARE WE DOING.

BOSS RULE.

Recently female school teacher in San
Francisco, having good standingwith the
Board of Education, was run in by the
police for being drunk and disorderly on
the streets in the night time. She COM
planned of having lost by robbery and
theft thousand dollars, worth of dia-
monds. Not to put too fine point upon
it, she was bowling drunk, and the ex-
posure occasioned her discharge from the
schools of the metropolis.
A year ago, this same female school
teacher was riding in the Park on Sum
day afternoon with an escort much the
worse for liquor. Violating some rule of
the Park, an attempt was made by the
Park Police to arrest him. He resented
any interference with his privilege as a
citizen of the State and drew a revolver,
whereupon, the policeman. being duly
sober and somewhat handy with his
shooting iron, shot and killed him.
1t was proven as an element of the de-
Tense of the policeman that both the
escort and the teacher were under the in
iuence of liquor; but the female school
teacher did not lose her place. The police
man who killed her convival escort was
discharged as having acted in self defense
but the conduct of the female school
teacher was not investigated by the Board
of Education and she retained her place
until her recent defiance of all decency
forced the Board of Education to discharge
her from further service in the forma-
tion of the character of the young of San
Francisco.
The educational interests of San Fran
cisco are evidently in the hands of the
bosses men. The anxiety manifested to
obtain position on the school board.
Notwithstanding there are no emolu-
ments, and notwithstanding success in
this direction is achieved by men of
whom it cannot be said that they are
anxious to serve the public for nothing
in the interest of popular education, is of
itself an indication that the educational
department of the city of San Francisco
is quite as rotten as its Boards of Super
visors and its municipal government
generally. 1t will remain in its present
rotten state until the nominees of the
boss are defeated by the virtue and intel
hgence of that city. It should be a.
maxim for voters everywhere that when
ever a man receives his nomination for
an office at the hands of professional
boss. from one who by reason of his
money. his relation with corporate power,
or any other relation which establishes
him as manipulation of the venal ele-
ments of society, that candidate ought to
be defeated. No matter whether he runs
for Governor or School Director, the can
didate of the boss should receive the seal
of public condemnation by his over
whelming defeat. 1t is coming to be un-
derstood that abuses of every kind-tax
evasion, monopoly, traffic in the honor of
men and the virtue Of women, are refera-
BILE to government by the boss. Extrav-
agance of public expenditure is a source
of revenue to thesboss. The position of
the boss in any campaign is not occult;
it is always plain; his hand is visible
The public know the conventions he runs
and those which act independently, just
as it knows black from white. Let the
bosses candidates fail of election in the
pending contest, whoever that may be.

Venuon was reconyened. It met in this
city on Saturday after weeks of see-saw-
ing and the development of the fact that
no man could be found to cast himself
upon the party altar who could possibly
win.
refusal to accept Mr.. Caminetti's
declination was adopted Saturday, and a
quasi promise was given that the original
nominee will ''stand in" The ''whoop-
up' attempted to secure Democratic in
dorsement of Cornell, the Peoples party
nominee. fizzled completely-in fact the
scheme was not even mentioned in the
convention.
Inc Democracy has not infrequently
resorted to the Endorsement of side-show
candidates in the effort TO defeat Republi-
can nominees, and sometimes the plan
has succeeded. But in this case the pro-
posed Endorsement OF Cornell was too
much for the Democratic stomach.
All which goes to maintain the claim of
the RECoRD-U UNION that Mr.. Johnson's
election is assured, and that the opposi-
ton fully realize it. Mr.. johnson will
be an aggressive factor in Congress: he
will be in every sense a representative of
the people OF the distrIct-not merely
a Republican partisan, but essentially
a representative in the fullest
meaning of the word. Mr.. John
son has the affirmative qualities of
Vigor, courage, intense love for his dis
trict, strong patriotism and assertive
force. In addition he has had wide par
iamentary experience, is recognized as
skilled legislator, publicist of the ad-
vanced order, man of wide information,
persuasive and vigorous eloquence, and
tactician admirably equipped to do battle
for California in the National Legislat-
ure.
His election, we take it, is assured; but
this belief should not induce confidence
to justify inactivity in the campaign. He
should De given such vote of indorse-
ment as will amount to an emphatic ex-
preston to Congress that the people of
the district have selected representative
entitled to speak for them fully, and TO
present the claims of the district ag-
gressively and with the determination
that they shall be heard and receive due
attention. The district needs just such a
man as Mr.. Johnson in Congressional
need has never been, greater. 1t is there
fore of first Importance that Mr.. Johnson
should receive the largest majority ever
given for any candidate in this section of
the State, and we believe that he will
have it.

The defeat of Breckenridge in the Ash
land District, Kentucky. primaries is
vindication of the decency of the people
of Kentucky. Had they renominated
him for Congress, they would have won
the contempt of the whole country. The
outcome OF the primaries is distinct
triumph for the decent, and will go
far to remove the reproach that
the Breckinridge-Poli scandal at
tached to the American political sys-
tenn. 1t may not do much for the purifi-
cation of the morals of public men, but it
at least amounts to verdict that the peo-
pie will not approve an immoral life in
