The morning call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1878-1895, 1895-02-17

at 5 In the morning. 1 was q dandy. Yes,
sir, and hadn't horse that couldn't string
OFF ninety miles day without breathing
hard. That's what" and Billy blew cloud of
smoke into his companions eyes while he kept
his own on the tally-ho.
''Why if Hank Monk saw that layout-Say,
Fred, did you know Hank? Good fellow-but
as was a-saying, if he saw that outfit he'd
leave town for Leadville and go into the de-
tective business. He couldn't stand it to see
such rig in town this size.
"Look at the wheels, Fred. A couple of these
good big fat Saratogas we used to carry over
the Hawley grade would bust 'em in four
places"
"Mr. Hamilton, will you please turn that
cigar smoke toward the billiard-room? It's
pretty heavy for man who doesn't dissipate."
Certainly, Fred; certainly. But was just
thinking of the time went driving with Bill
Blackmore and the horses ran away. He slung
the whip into them and yelled: go it, you
brutes. II you can run any faster than 1 can
ride, why strike out and we'll see where the
stage brings up But that's got nothing to do
with that tally-ho. Pretty thing, but it
wouldn't stand the usin'. No, sir, it wouldn't
stand the usin'"
Allen B. Lennon, editor of the Santa Rosa
Republican, who was in the city yesterday, is
an enthusiastic supporter of the plan to secure
the Republican National Convention for this
city. He is the father of a resolution passed
by the Editorial Association in which that body
agrees to do everything in its power to secure
the desired result. 1.-THE plan I hear sug-
gested by which the objection of excessive
railroad fares which might be raised against
the proposition to have the convention here
can be overcome is good one," said he. sit is
proposed that the Mechanics Pavilion shall be
filled with seats for 10000 people in add ition
to the visiting delegates, and that these seats
be sold at $40 apiece for the entire session.
From the amount thus derived it is suggested
that good proportion of the fare of each dele
gate can be paid, an arrangement being effected
with the railroad company to the effect thus
making the fare to this city proportionately
about the same that is made from various Sec
lions of the country to Chicago, for instance.
AS to the revenues which will be derived from
the sale of tickets do not believe there would
be any difficulty encountered in that respect.
In TACT, believe the tickets would bring
premium of $40 before the convention was
fully under way"
A. j. Harris of Sonoma County, who was at

1.-THE development of the trolley as medium
OF transportation shows some interesting
FEATURES to my mind" said Fl. j. Small,
superintendent OF construction of motive
power on the Southern Pacific, who was in the
Grand yesterday ''In Minneapolis and several
other cities officers of the roads have private
troiley-cars, sumptuously fitted, in which they
take their friends about town, and in Toronto
ana Boston palace trolleys can be hired for
theater parties, excursions etc. Uncle Sam
now utllizes the cars on over sixty electric
roads OF the country for carrying the mails,
ana the freight and express service on these
Ines is being also rapidly extended. Up in
spokane they use trolley-cars for handling
grain in bulk, and in Baltimore electric loco
motors, operated on the overhead system, will
soon proper regular passenger and freight
trains through the belt line tunnel. Toronto
also nnds use for the trolley-cars in hauling
away the garbage accumulated each day."

always been difficult one for the railroad
companies to handle,'' said Judge t. C. Houck
