At any rate, Postmaster Backus failed

attention TO the first order beyond talking
about 1t. This talk, however, got to the
ears of the local journeymeE tailors. and,
seeing that this would take out of their

tnue their Investigations and report at the next
meeting.
The State law regulating the hours of labor
for minors was read, and it was resolved to use
strenuous efforts to have the time reduced 10
not more than eight hours day. Several
speakers stated that from physiological

HIS LIFE OVER.
Holland Has

A Conspicuous Figure Among Pho

Suddenly at Home.

Nathaniel Holland, who was a prominent
figure in public life in California since the sum-
mer OF 1849, died at his home, 1414 Taylor
street, yesterday afternoon, after an Illness Of
three days. Though not wholly unexpected,
his death came rather suddenly, and was a
severe shock to his family and friends.
Mr.. Holland was born in July, 1872, in what
is now Philadelphia. His parents were Ameri-
can settlers who came of an old family. After
going through school near home he studied law
in tile Offices of Paul Brown in Philadelphia,
and under this tutelage, Brown being attorney
in Lincon's Cabinet, young Holland prepared
for his legal career. He was admitted TO the

formed a partnership with Robert l.. Tyler, son
OF President Tyler. This association in busi-
ness continued until 1S49,sWhen Holland left
his native place for California.
When crossing the fsthmuS the party with
which he travelled was DELAYED by revolt in
connection with which the Steamship company
refused TO run boats on the Pacific Coast. He
went TO CallaO, Peru, and there chartered
bark and with niLety-nine others set sail for
the Golden Gate, which was passed on June 8,
1S49.
Immediately on his arrival he formed part
nership with d. o. Mills in trading schooner
on the Sacramento River. The schooner was
sold very soon ana then Holland resumed the
practice of his profession in this city. Up TO
the time OF his death he has been at the bar.
The city elected him in early DAYS TO the
Board of Aldermen, and later on he took part
in movement 10 establish schools and organ
lied the first public school in San Francisco.
He was elected to the Legislature and took a
prominent part In the adoption Of a charter for
this city, what is now known as the consOlda-

In 1856 he returned TO Philadelphia and mar.
ried Mrs Martha Fl. Smith, descendant OF The
FoIger family, which is traced back 10 June,
1886. He came back 10 California, arriving
here with his family June %, 1861. Subse-
Ouently he was elected a School Director, and
the board selected him as chairman. After the
passage by Congress Of the Federal election
law Mr.. Holland was appointed Chief Super
visor Of Elections on this coast, which position
he retained during The life of the law. l he
deceased was also United States Court Com
