THE TRUE SITUATION.

1t is time that all good citizens should
dedicate their eounsels. their best
eXertioDs and their ballots toward destroy
ing the political plague now menacing the
municipal government of the city of San
Francisco. State conventions, represent
ing the two great political parties of the
past generation. have met and adjourned.
Their several nominations, with rare ex-
eeptions, have intensified public prejudice
against the old party organizations and
aroused general distrust at the possible
future management of State affairs.
Municipal conventions, representing the
same parties, have likewise met and con-
tributed shamelessly to the already sur.
feited feeling of public distrust. The sue
cess of either at the polls would mean the
resumption of the old boodling methods.
To expect property-owner to vote the
straight ticket presented by either is an
insult to the intelligence and manhood of
an American citizen.
To correct the abuses which are now
threatening our municipal welfare a num-
Der of gentlemen of business and position,
selected from all parties without the aid of
i. club organizations, primary elections or
any other debauching political device,
none of whom were candidates for office,
have presented to the voters of San Fran
cisco a Non-Partisan ticket. 1t contains
the names of gentlemen who are not now
and are not likely to be ultimately con-
trolled by the corporations Or politicians.
The people Of this city, regardless of for
mer party utilization, may vote it at the
next election with every assurance that its
success means honest municipal govern
ment during the next two years.

VOTES COUNT.

The two Burns organs of this city are
unable to reconcile the nomination by the
Non-Partisans Of few Burns candidates
with the pTeten sions OF the Non-Partisans
in the way of municipal reform. They
seem TO imagine that the weight of Burns
men will pull the whole ticket down,
While it will be admitted that the Burns
organs ought to know something about
their own candidates, there is ground for
the claim of the Non-Partisans that even
ifthese Burns nominees are as bad as the
Burns organs seem to think they are
there Is the leaven of good in Non-Par-
tisan nomination that may save them.
One complaint against the boss system is
that ii does not permit officials to be as
faithful to their trust as they might like
to be. The bosses have great many
political workers whom they are under an
obligation to provide for between cleo
fions. Naturally they seek places for
these workers III the City Hall Clerks
accepted at the hands of the bosses are
not supposed to do much work. They are
not dependent on the head Of the depart
ment for their place. II he discharges
good political worker because he is a Door
clerk, the poor clerk flies to the boss and
nees of the boss convention who have been
Endorsed by the Non-Partisans have taken
the Non-Partisan pledge required of can
didates. Not only have they taken this
pledge, but the Non-Partisan organization
will sustain them in keeping it. II either
of the bosses claims part of the patronage
at the disposal of the head of the depart
ment whom the Non-Partisans Endorsed,
the boss will be reminded that his nomina-
ton did not secure the officials election.
There is point at this place for voters to
consider. The influence of the Non-Par-
tisan organization over an official who was
on the Non-Partisan ticket and also on
one of the boss tickets will be in proper
ton to the vote cast for the Non-Partisan
straight nominees. The election will show
the elective strength of the three or four
organizations. II the Non-Partisans poll
from third to half of the entire vote. as
now seems probable there will be no ques-
ton as to the allegiance of an official who
was on the Non-Partisan and one or more
other tickets.

THE GREAT FIGHT IN NEW YORK.

The nomination of Colonel M. S. Strong
to be Mayor Of New York means reso-
lutte stand against Tammany. Mr.. Strong
has been selected for his personal quail
ties, though in some respects it would have
been more polite to give the nomination
to an Anti-Tammany Democrat. While
the movement against TammaDy is nom
partisan, there are doubtless Anti-Tam-
many Democrats who could hardly bring
themselves to vote for Republican even
for a municipal Office. 1t is the hope of
the committee which placed Mr.. Strong in
nomination to concentrate all the inde-
pendent element of voters in support Of
one ticket. If this hope is realized the
city government of the great commercial
metropolis will be taken out of the hands
of TammanY bosses

The japanese are supposed to be advancing
from Korea on MOukden in Manchuria.
A Chinese army is gathered for its de-

at or near New-Chang would put them on
the right flank and rear of the Chinese at
Moukden, and between them and Picking.
In that even; the Chinese would either
have to leave Moukden to its fate and fall
back toward Picking or fight and whip this
new Japanese army, while retaining force
