THEIR RECORD AND FAILURE.

Senate. Davis of Minnesota says that
the present campaign will be fought out
on the failure of the Democratic party
to administer the affairs OF the govern
ment in diplomacy, in finance, in every
thing, and he says the Republican party
has its record and will stand upon that.
Very WE'LL but what record of the Re.
publican party does he refer to? II it
is the record OF the year past the al
lusion is very unfortunate. The failure
OF the Democratic party in it's financial
policy is most notorious, but it has been
assisted in that failure by this same
Senator Davis and almost the entire
Republican party in the senate. The
financial policy of the government ia
the great question OF the day. All
other questions, even that of the
tariff, are trifiing in comparis on |;
but the record of the Republicans
on that question is no whit better than
that of the Democrats. Mr.. Cleveland
could not have carried out the smallest
bit OF his Wall street policy, but for Res
publican assistance. The z. o. p. is as
warmly attached to the in terests OF
Lomb bard street and Wall street as any.
body else. The record of that party
twenty or thirty years ago is good
enough, we will concede, but the record
of later years is the one that now con-
Germs US most. Good character cuts but
poor figure in the face of positive evi-
dence OF crime. The good sta nding Of
Judas ss one of the twelve wss entirely
destroyed by his acceptance Of the 80
pieces of silver. Benedict Arnold was a
good Union officer up to certain time.
A party may prove false to its obliga-
tions as we'll as an individual. There is
very little in the recent record oil the
Republican party to boast of. 1t is
clear up to the ears with Cleveland in
his financial policy. and if any thing can
be worse than that, then Heaven have
mercy on us.

How q Prisoner's Friend Struggled
Morphine Into the JAIN.
A week ago Lulu Dorman, a NOR
phine user in its worat form and pros
titute. was cent to Jail for 25 days for
vagrsncy. She had friend who
called himself ]. ]. Lentz, and who has
been hanging around the prison ever
since her incarceration. At O'Clock
yesterday morning he was detected in
an attempt to pass morphine to the
woman through small CRATE or tran.
som between the woman's cell and an
outside closet. 1t is thought he has
been supplying her with the drug 70,
some time, and upon this belief Ser
geant Jeffries locked the fellow up and
booked him ION suspicion" Later he
was released and Captain Roberts po-
litely but firmly told him that if ne was
caught in such an attempt again be

A MOUNTAIN MYSTERY.
CARLTON KEMP AND PARTY SUP
POSED TO BE LOST.
They Left for the San Gabriel About
Four Months Ago, and Have
Not Yet Been Hoard
From.

Henry @. Roberts. who keeps q 70.
fuge and QUILTING ranch ut the mouth
of the San Gabriel, is much concerned
about the fate Of trio OF young men
who went into the mountains from his
place the first part OF last April, and
who have not been heard OF since.
The party was composed of Carleton
Kemp, q newspaper man we'll known
heresbouts, q man named McMasters,
said to belong to the literary bureau OF
the Southern Pacific company. and an
other newspaper man named McEwer.
They arrived at Roberts ranch early
in April and hired five burroa and q
mule for their journey. Roberts ash ed
Kemp whore they we're going and the
latter replied wherever the wind blow Q
US"
Before departing they packed up their
good clothes and left them with Roberts,
and Kemp confided to his care big
package, which he said contained vslua-
BILE papers and letters, the latter from
some Los Angelss woman.
The party WAS fairly we'll provided
with arms and provisions, but were not,
of course, prepared for stay of four
months.
Mr.. Roberts fears that some serious
misadveuture has beIallen the party
and doeo not know what dispositions to
make of their effects. The clothes, he
says, are all too fine for Populist like
himself to wear, and the letters he
thinks are of such delicate tone that
it may be that they should be destroyed.

A POPULAR MOVEMENT.

The old parties in San Francisco are
very much exercised about the popu-
larity developed in the movement to run
y non. partisan peoples ticket Tor the
local offices. The bosses are trying their
best to head of the movement. but in
spite OF all they can do, 1t is increasing
in volume and momentum every day.
The people OF San Francisco have long
been at the mercy of corrupt politicians,
who have used the Offices as their own
property and fillsd them with their
henchmen. The taxpayers have been
robbed right and left, and the Doodle
rings in the board Of supervisors have
bargained away the corporation fran.
chises to railroad rings for nearly all the
streets in the city. Every department
of the city government has been reeking
with ruption, and the bosses have be-
come so brazen in their nefsrious acts
that it only requires q movement such

rightly used. The many, who live bet

less expenditure, by more promptly

the value to health of the pure liquid

Its excellence is due to its presenting

1t has given satisfaction to millions and

SORROW CAME TOO LATE.

That's Why Myron Russell Is Likely to
Go to San Quentin.
There is at present very sorry man
in the city prison; in fact, there may be
many sorry men there. but one OF
them is particularly gloomy and sad at
heart-all because he wanted revenge,
and got it.
The sorry man is Myron Russell. The
young fellow has weakness for steal
ing hose nozzles, and has piled his vocs-
ton with more or less success during
the last three months.
Over two months ago Russell, like the
southern darkey who can't pass q chicken
or watermelon without having it "fssten
to him." was passing along the residen ce
OF W. W. Holcomb. the attorney. He
espied o garden hose nozzle, and, re-.
fessmnbssriIppg fess ns 81 that t!s be had been taught to
went smiling on his way. A few days
later Justice Seaman gave him 90 days
in the chain gang.
From the day he was sentenced, Rus
sell swore vengeance, and said he would
steal that same nozzle If Providence
spared him TO eerve his time in jail.
A day or two ago he was released,
having served his term. He again
passed Hofcomb's house and saw the
came nozzle. With the spirit of revenge,
he took the instrument, as he said he
would do.
Now he is in Jail again, with pros
pect looming before him of going behind
the sable walls of San Quentin. HI
will be given a preliminary examination
next Saturday in Judge Sesman's court
tho second petty larceny conviction hav
| ing made him amenable for felony
And this is why Russell is so sad.

IT BEGINS to look as II some OF the
Populist fraternity had been braced to
''stand pat' on the election question
and not yield to compromise overtures
of any sort from the Democracy. Two
years ago they were willing to yield to
almost any proposition and give up two
places on the ticket for the sake OF
securing one. Now they will have
nothing OF the kind, and say they prefer
defeat to fusion. How is ii that they
have become so suddenly radical in de-
tense OF party integrity A week ago
they were willing enough to arrange a
fusion ticket on the ground that "half a
loaf is better than no bread" but now
they are willing to risk defeat in defense
OF principle. 1t begins to look as il
all office-seekers were alike, whether
they be Republicans, Democrats OF
Populists. 1t was in ancient times only
that the average politician could afford
to make professions OF purity.
