CONSIDER THE LILIES


They have no care.
They bend their heads before the storm,
And rise to meet the sunshine warm,
And dance responsive to the breeze,
And nestle underneath the trees,
And take whatever life shall bring,
As gayly us the birds that sing.
They do not toll.
Content with their allotted task
They do but grow; they GO not ask
richer lot, IL higher sphere,
But i'll their loneliness appear
And grow and smile, and do their best,
And unto God they leave The rest.
They have no sin.
Their pure, sweet faces they upraiSc;
And shrink not from the suns bright gaze.
And if the earth should soil, the rain
Comes DOWN To make them clean again,
And scented, beautiful ana white,
They live their lives i'll Gods dear sight.
They weep no tears:
No shadow dims their happiness,
They do but live the world to bless;
Enough have they of cloth of gold,
They lift the cups their dew to hold;
About them are the light and song,
And they are glad the whole day long.

The Oleander.

Notwithstanding the oleander is num-
bered among poisonous plants, and it is
really believed that it was the flowers of
the oleander and not the rhododendron
that caused such trouble in the army of
Xerxes, no trouble has ever been found
from them in America, Notwithstanding
in the southern states they are so extern
sively grown. Some of the English papers
are endeavoring to create a sentiment
against them, but all we can find to war
rant this is something that happened in
1909, when it is said some Spanish SOL
diers used the wood for skewers in roast
ing meat, and few children many years
ago died through eating the flowers. Pos
sibly it may be that in America children
get so many things better to eat than ole
anders that this may be the reason, there
fore, for the general immunity of Ameri-
can people and children from any injury
resulting from the cultivation of this beau
tiful plant-Meehan's Monthly.

How n Plant Has Travelled.

Less than 125 years ago the little plant
known to the botanists as Lepachy's col
umnaris was only known to inhabit n
small section of country i'll the very south
ern portion of Louisiana. Some time later
1t was reported rs occurring sparinglyalong
the Canadian river, and later still on the
Arkansas. Since that time it has slowly
spread north, west and east, even to the
very source of the Missouri, over into the
British possessions and is now said to be
creeping along the Saskatchewan toward
Hudson bay. How a plant which origi
mated in warm climate could accustom
itself to such changes is another of natures
mysteries.-St. Louis Republic.

subject in order to eulOgizs Chairman
DeupreY. He retired amid applause.
James T. Smith had considerable to say
AS to why the report should be adopted.
He wanted q fair discussion of such an
important matter. He had no feeling one
way or the other. He would cOncede
that the gentlemen who were on one side
were actuated by honesty of purpose. but
he claimed the same for himself and the
mem bers of the committee. He agreed
with Clunie that the eyes of the commu-
nifty we're upon the ention, but Clunie,
the speaker thought. had inadvertently
misled the convention from the real issue.
Speaker Foote had done the same. They
had tried to show that the committee
would use certain power in behalf of the
persons whom they might select. The
speaker hurled the insinuatiOn back in the
teeth of those who had made it. The con-
venti0n was asked 10 nominate men for
the Board of Supervisors and Board of
Education in an off-hand way. What chance
was there for an inveStigst on of the
qualifications and alb l:t!es of those who

trouble in the convention even if he doesn't
succeed In getting another Buckley Rainey
Board of Supervisors.
Ralney said yesterday afternoon that
he, too. was doing nothing, and intended
TO follow the example of Buckley and
leave the city for several days. Nobody
believes that. All day yesterday be had
Maurice Schmitt on the go. Maurice and
Eddy Graney, the useful horseshoer of the
Fire Department. were busly engaged in
issuing Instructions 10 the Buckley Raney
delegates. and it soon became apparent
that they were working for the Board of
Supervisors. For the first time the anti
Buckley men admitted that the Rainey
forces were trading their 200 votes, and
had chance to capture several good
places. They want, besides the Super
visors and the legislative ticket, the As
SCISSORS Office, the City and County Attor-
ney and the Public Administrator. Rainey

retired to Livermore the people would
think that he had vanished for good. and
was not attempting to force his odious
personality upon the politics OF the city.
Rainey could manage things for him
and the public would be fooled. Buckley
has great faith in the gullibiity OF the
pu bic. and though he knows that popular
sentiment is so strongly against him that
he is not safe from Imprisonment he hank
ers after the f1eshpots still. 1t is said that
he had a very narrow escape from indict-
ment by the Grand Jury last Friday. He
has friends who have influence. but they
had TO get TO work to prevent action
against him, as there was a strong deter
mination to put him where he would not
be able to handle the political wires so
well as be has done to the detriment of the
city and county.
Buckley does not want any more such
risks. SO he made an overture to the effect
that he would withdraw his obnoxious
presence from the city during the deliber-
atoms of the convention. This PROPOSE
ton was accepted and Buckley retired to
his ranch Now that the danger has been
tided over for the time Buckley's itching
palm is still troubling him. His enemies
say that he has issued instructions to Sam
Rainey and that Sam will cause a lot of

all that was reprehensible in that connec-
ton Dame arose and bitterly opposed the
adoption of the document. He took the
ground that personal ties should not be
INDUCED in by the committee and said that
his opposition was not actuated by friend
ship for Mr.. Buckley. The committee was
not there TO throw mud at anybody. Moth
ing could be accomplished by it, and IL was
both unusual in such body and altogether
unseemly.
HeurY S. Foote took the same position,
and Henley and Weller retorted sharply
The meeting was held with closed doors,
but the angry voices of the disputants
could be heard in the corridors of the hotel
as they proceeded with their heated argu-
ment. 1t looked for time as though the
meeting would break up in row, but a
vote was finally reached and the resolu-
ton was defeated, Henley. Weller and one
other being the only members to vote for
it, Barclay Henley was much chagrined.
He expressed great surprise at the course
several wel!-known ant-Buckley men had
taken, and the discussion was continued
after the meeting had adjourned.
X. p. Hammond has a plank which he
proposes 10 incorporate in the report of
the committee if he can get the other mem
berS to vote for it. Mr.. Hammond be-

to which he is entitled, we will find
means to make him do So"
The roll of the Forty-third delegation

the delegates seat, but by mistake the
secretary began calling the roll of the
Forty-fourth.
THE Forty-fourth is quite respectabl e."
said one of its delegates.
$50 l suppose are all the delegations"
said the chairman.
The Forty third was .hen called, and it
was found that the trouble was due to the
fact that there were fewer chairs than
delegates. and that there had been no
usurpatOn Of seats.
Mr.. Ach then began to speak in favor of
Clunle's amendment. There was no rea-
son for all the feeling which had been
manifested. There was no more import
ant office than that of Supervisor.
And can say further" Mr.. Ach con-
tinued, that we are Democrats and that
the people are to rule. We, not the chair
man." he continued. turning to Mr.. Deu-
prey. "are TO select the men who are to

plause and cries of time grew louder
The speaker declared that nine-tenths of
the members were unacquinted with the
men seeking Office. There were many
Kisses when the speaker concluded.
III. S. FOote spoke next upon the matter
and was invited to the platform to give
vent to his opinions. He thought, he said,
that the Board of Supervisors of this city
was elected by the votes of the citizens of
San Francisco. Ii that was the case he
saw no reason why convention which is
composed of the most intelligent class of
men that ever gathered in convention
could not be trusted to select the body of
men who are to carry on the business af-
fairs of the city. If the convention could
elevate judges and those who had the
rights of property under their control it
could surely elect Supervisors. He did
not know there was any such proposition
hands of the convention.
Mr.. Foote assured his hearers that he
spoke as IA good Democrat and that he
wanted no Office. [Applanse.l He had a
lot of respect for Delegate Cole and the
other members of the committee, but a
grave mistake had been made. If this
convention cannot determine the ques tion,
who can? The delegates must assert them
selves and not deliver themselves up to
the mercy of twenty-five men. The latter
should not have the responsibility and
they should not ask for it,
The speaker then branched off from the
The morning call., 1894-09-20

lieves that the city of San Francisco needs
public improvements very badly and be
would touch the pockets of the people
quite heavily in order to secure them. His
resolution will pledge the Mayor and the
Board of Supervisor to cause the issuance
of S5.000,000 worth of bonds, the money
to be devoted to identifying and improving
the city. The bonds would be payable
some years hence and Mr.. Hammond
thought that at some remote period they
could be redeemed with small inconven-
fence. He had some doubt as to whether
the measure would go through the COM
mittee and last night he consulted some of
his friends upon the adyisability of pre-
senting it.
The morning call., 1894-09-20

were nominated? Only proper inyesti-
CATION could be done by a committee.
Their action was by no means final. 1t
must be reported back to the convention,
and that body could then do as it pleased.
DIR. Smith urged that no hasty action in
such an important matter be taken. Upon
the good judgment which was displayed
would depend the success of the ticket. If
a Board of Supervisors was nominated
which was subservient tc cooperative in
fluence, in the present state of public feel
ing. the party was dumped with such a
Board of Supervisors. there was no chance
of success. [Applause.]
When Henry Ach took the platform to
speak on the amendment there was an
other sauabble in the delegations on the
part Of members who could not get seats,
which caused the chairman TO remark
IF there is any one who is not gentle

wants to help Dundon in his fight for
Public Administrator.
One of the events of yesterday was a
row in the meeting of the committee on
platform and resolutions. A disposition
was early manifested 10 suppress Charley
Weller, who had countless suggestions to
make, which the other members of the
committee thought had no weight
Peter Z. DunDe was particularly rompt
in sitting down on any proposition
which Mr.. Weller offered or favored,
and toward the end of the proceedings

the opening remark of Chairman Deuprey
at the third nights session of the Demo-

Instructions to the sergeants-at-arms fol-
lowed, and the chairmen of the various
district delegations were then requested to
come forward to get tickets of admission
for their delegations.

had been elected by the 1hirty-second

The fights" of the men who want the
convention to place them on the ticket
were being discussed yesterday and last
night with undated zeal. Between some
of them the contest is waxing very warm
and bitter luminosity is being engendered.
McDade for Sheriff and Haley for County
Clerk are especially unfriendly and the
assessOrship is creating,a good deal of feel
ing. Until the Buckley or Rainey strength
is developed it is difficult to predict what
the outcome will be in most cases and all
the aspirants express great confidence.
With regard to the hight for Sheriff. from
all appearances it will not be known until
the time comes for voting who will secure
the nomination. Both sides are equally
hopeful and both have good and substan-
tial reasons to give for their success.
Richard l. Whelan, otherwise known as
"Dick" Whelan, was around the conyen-
tion making his own fight. He felt ex-
tremely confident of victory. and so were
bis friends. Their motto was this:
