Years by Republicans.
The executive council of Republican
clubs held protIactsd secret session last
night at the Alcazar building mainly for
the purpose of formulating an address to
the public. Edward Briggs presided.
As this address is in the nature of a
platform of the Republican clubs Its con-
struction was necessarily slow work

after the meeting adjourned. But thi S
council cannot make IL public for some
time. We will have to submit 1t at a rat IT,
cation meeting, where all the clubs will be
fully represented. If the address is ac-
cepted a: that meeting it will be printed
and distributed as our platform and also
published in the public press"
The question Of immigration occupied a
large portion of the night. Delegates could
not agree readily on various points. and
there we're motions, amendments, substi-
tues, etc. A motion to have the term of
probation before foreigners could be ad-
mitted to citizenship extended to twenty
one years was lost After prolonged dis
cussion a substitute to prohibit all immi-
grafton for ten years was adopted.
Delegates from the Soldiers and Sailors
Club were admitted to the meeting.
A letter from the Stale Central Commit
tee asking the council to meet AS a body
and attend the Republican ratification
meeting al the Wigwam on Eddy stree
Wednesday night was read and acted on
favorably. The council decided to meet
at the Baldwin Hotel and march to the

PoPULlsTs IN SESSION.
Nominations Made for Judges and
Justices of the Peace.


The PEOPLES party municipal conyen-
ton convened again last evening at So
cialists' Hall. on Turk street, and got as
far in its proceedings as the nomination of
Superior and Police Judges and justices of
the Peace. AS on preceding evenings
when the convention was in session there
was a large attendance in the lobby, aud a
keen interest was taken by the spectators
in all the events of the evening.
The convention was called to order by
Chairman Chisholm al half past s, and
after the calling Of the roll two delega-
tions, composed of three members each
| from the Thirty-third Assembly District,
| made their appearance and asked for
representation IN the convention. There
was evidently misunderstanding in the
district and the matter was referred to the
committee ON credentials.
That body. after investigating the case.
reported in favor of seating j. p Hagerty,
J. w. Patty and W. T. Patty as delegates
from the district and w. w. Mulvey, T. j.
Snyder and d. j. Lynch as delegates from
the County Committee, and so harmony
was restored.
Some little debate eusued regarding the
manner in which nominations should be
made. According to the rules of the con-
yention all persons placed in nomination
should be passed upon by the investigat-
ing committee, and reported back to the
convention as to their qualifications.
Several delegates wanted to know
whether the committee should report back
at the meeting Immediately after the one
at which the persons were named, and
whether final action should then be taken
il, the selection of candidates.
Delegate Collier made motion that the
investigating committee make report at
the meeting following the making of Dom-
nations, and that candidates be then
selected without further loss of time; also
that the committee simply report as to
qualifications of nominees, and that
nothing be said either for or against any
nominee.
B. j. Pye amended that no action be
taken on any nominees until NOMINATIONS

SUPERVISORS NOT SURE.
Doubt About the Boards Power Re-

garding the Water Problem.
All Of the members of the Board of Super
vsors by request attended meeting OF the
Water Committee yesterday to consider the
proposition TO bond this city for S15, 600, 900 to
purchase water works OF its own. Supervisor
Denman. chairman OF the committee. spoke in
favor of the project but SAID be would prefer
that the question be put to vote at the next
general election. Supervisor Rogers raised the
point that such step would be Illegal and
read from the law TO show that the question OF
voting bonds must always be considered at a
special election. He said he wanted The city
TO own Its own water works, but he also wanted
the matter TO be handled legally.
As there seemed to be some doubt about the
extent of the boards powers In the premises,
Supervisor DundOn moved that the City and
County Attorney be requested To file an opinion
on the subject The motion was carried and
the committee adj burned.

ANDREW Ii. GREEN has a scheme before

ANDREW II. GREEN has a scheme before
the constitutional convention of New York
for an imitation of the socialistic compulsory
insurance which Bismark has secured in Ger
many. .Mr. Green would so amend the state
constitution that call citizens, male and fe-
male, at the age of IS, and for seven years
thereafter, shall deposit with the treasurer of
the state So year. The fund so created shall
be known as the state insurance fund for the
aged. Every citizen who has deposited 1854
with the treasurer after the age of 30, shall
be entitled to draw $3.50 year. Persons
convicted of crime shall forfeit all claim to the
pension for the time they were imprisoned,
and also persons who, after % years old, shall
pass seven consecutive years abroad not in
government employ There is of course no
danger of any such scheme being adopted in
this country of freedom and indvidualsm,
but it is interesting as showing the trend of
thought among some of our ablest men.

serving the neutrality of the treaty ports OF
China Both China and Japan are represent
ed as acceding to the arrangement Under
such an agreement foreign interests in China
will be protected and foreign commerce Will
not be restricted.
There are internal symptoms in the south
of China, writes Shanghai correspondent,
under date of June 30, which are regarded as
infinitely more menacing to the empire than
war with Japan would be. Placards of the
most seditious and savage nature are circu-
lated by secret societies in kwantung and
Kwangse.
The rebels have already found their way
into Shanghai They call upon the people to
take advantage of the opportunity to rise
against the Tartar dynasty and restore the
kings. The authorities are certainly very
much frightened.
A conspiracy as wide as that of the Taip-
ings is known by the well Informed few to be
only waiting favorable moment to raise the
standard of revolt in China once more.
mThe fact is, there are many secret societies
I'M China always waiting for an opportunity
to rise up and throw off the yoke of the pres
ent Manchur, or, as some call it, the Tartar
dynasty.
The Corean minister. at Washington has APP

grain.

Now Boston has a job on hand in the inves
tgation of her police department that may
result in revelations approaching the shame.
fulness of those in New York-it is quite i'm
possible to equal them. Mrs. Theresa Cush-
ing, keeper of house of ill fame charges that
she paid Sergt. VIM. j. Sheehan of Station 4
for protection and immunity of her place and
claims to have been buncOed out of her money
because the place has been raided since
Commissioner Martin brought new blood and
energy, into the department. She has sworn
to the complaint and the commissioner
ordered an investigation, only to acquit the
sergent, against Gen. Martins protest, be-
hind closed doors. There is said to be
quite an accumulation of similar charges
against various officials and there is little
doubt that there is some truth to them alike
in Boston and other large cities.

THE civilized world will approve the death
sentence of Caserio, the anarchist assassin OF
President Carnot, and it is Il necessity for So
ciety to exterminate such criminals as it does
mad dogs or venomous reptiles. In this case
there was every legal proof of deliberate MUIR
der, with long and careful generalization, and
full mental and moral responsibility which in
deed was openly avowed, and apparently
with the belief that there was no moral tur-
pitude in assassination in the interest of anar-
chy any more than in killing in war. There is
faint of epilepsy in Caserio's family running
back for several generations, but no trace OF
it could be found in him, though it is reason-
able to suppose it to have had its subtle effect
in warping of mind and character and pro-
ducing sort of insanity. Many of the ablest
aienists of Europe believe that he and men
like him are to be classed as homicidal luna
tics. Perhaps sometime science may be able
to trace the lines satisfactorily in such cases
but it cannot now, and only one thing is left
for the law to do.

Coy. Flower of New York saws he is in

Indiana Democrats are reported to be a
good deal scared over wholesale assertions
from the party to the Populists. Voters are
said TO be going over by the hundreds espec-
ially in the vicinity of the late strikes. To
save the party many leading Democrats are
considering the advisability of indorsing a
part of the Populist ticket at the coming state
convention.
