ties, and the parties must be organized.
To effect that organization and control it,
two radically different methods are open
to politicians. One of these is the method
OF the boss. 1t is narrow, mean and nearly
always dishonest. 1t looks not beyond
local successes and aims only at the spoils
OF Office or the chance of plundering the
taxpayers. The other is the method of the
leader. 1t is broad, statesmanlike and
honorable. 1t looks to great National is
sues while carefully guarding the interests
OF municipalities, and holds men together
by maintaining those great principles of
public policy which are essential to the
welfare both OF the individual and of the
Nation.
THE CALL is opposed TO all bosses, and
particularly to Republican bosses. 1t has
under the present management been
prompt to denounce every Republican who
in Office has violated his pledges or been
false to the people. 1t has done this in the
interests of the public and in the interests
of the Republican party itself. 1t there
fore notes Quay's victory with satisfaction,
and INDUCES the belief that the same re-
suits will be accomplished in California at
the next Republican convention by the
overthrow of the bosses and the advance
ment of true leaders.

AROUND THE coRa1poRs.

J. A. Finch, who is the prime mover in the
big chicken hatchery to be put up near Napa,
had for many years large plant near Wash
1ngton, D. c. The incubators were so arranged
that they would hold 1000 eggs in sections
OF zoo each. Each day tray of 200 eggs
would be put in and 200 chicks taken out. 1t
look tWenty-one days for the eggs to hatch.
Zone day." said Mr.. Finch yesterday, go
newspaper man came out to look at the place
and my foreman, who was something of wag,
told him that the great advantage of our incu-
pators over the old style of Matching was
that they would hatch out eggs in twenty-four
hours. This the newspaper man would not
believe. However, he was induced to wait and
see the operation. So he was shown the 200
eggs put into each of the big incubators in the
evening, and next day when he saw the trays
OF young chicks taken out he was convinced.
he went back to Washington and wrote up an
account of how eggs could be Matched in
tWenty-four hours. don't think he ever took
much interest in the industry after that

AHS uoHe III tnlS Srate, ne SAID:
Typographical surveys have been made of
about quarter of the area of this State. Most
OF the work has been done from the northern
boundary line, down along the Sierras to about
this latitude, and also along the Coast Range
and about here We have two parties in the
held surveying now, one about San Luis
Ob1spo and the other surveying the country
about Mount Hamilton. San Jose and Palo
Alto. OF course, the work is necessarily slow
and 1T will take several years to complete the
typographical survey of the State.'
Mr. Goode, in speaking of the geological work
OF the Federal Government here, said: "a very
small part of the area of this State has been
gone over by the biologists. The policy of the
Government, however, is to extend the work
as fast as permissible. Most of the work is be-
ing done in the gold belt and other mineral
districts. There are now three parties at
work-one about Colfax, another near Sonora
and the third in the Coast Range. This latter
work is in charge of Professor Lawson of the
State University. 1t is proposed to take up
soon survey OF the State. This work, it is
probable, will be in the hands of A. Becker,
who was for a time professor in Berkeley,
and is now in Alaska

0UAY'S VICTORY,

The long contest against Senator Quay
in Pennsylvania has been fought to a
finish and the Senator has won His
majority on the first test ballot in the con-
vention was large enough to be decisive,
and thereafter no further opposition was
made to him. His election to the chair
manship of the State Central Committee
was unanimous, and the management Of
the party and the conduct of the campaign
will be under his direction.
Mugwumps may denounce this as
another triumph of the boss" but the
majority of the American people will not
SO consider it. Senator Quay is not boss,
but q leader. He has not won his victory
by packing a convention with office-hold-
efs or filing it with ward strikers from
the cities and the tools CT railroad corpo-
rations. So far as these elements were in
the convention at all, they were opposed
to him. The principals in the fight
against him were Governor Hastings, who
controlled the official patronage OF the
State, the big corporations of Pennsylva-
MIA and the Philadelphia ring that holds
the patronage of the city. Quay rallied to
his support the intelligent masses of the
party and won the victory in the conven-
ton because he stood for party organiza-
ton against factional discussions and
party principles against mere quarrels
over the spells of office.
The character of the man and the nature
of the object he sought were revealed in
the use he made of his victory. When the
ballot on the election of temporary chair
man made it certain that the majority was
with him and the battle was won, he at
once moved that his chief opponent,
Governor Hastings, be made permanent
chairman. The nominations to the prin-
cipal offices at stake were also conceded
to the opposition. For himself and the
stalwarts nothing was taken except the
control of the State Central Committee.
This wise action not only continues the
organization of the party in the compe-
tent hands of those who have won so many
victories in the past, but harmonizes the
disconnected and makes it certain that the
full party vote will be polled this fall and
another victory be added to the long list of
Republican successes.
While Quay's victory was gained in
purely local battle, it is in a certain sense
gratifying to the better elements of the
party everywhere. The surest way to get
rid OF bosses in politics is to follow
leaders. So long as our Government con-
tinues as it is, there must be political par

1T BEGINS TO TELL.

The Manufacturers and Producers Associa-
ton has hardly made start yet on the tre-
mendous work they have mapped out for
themselves. But even the preliminaries have
met response. The initial articles that have
appeared in the City and interior press are
already being felt. The tradesmen are cater
ing to the new sentiment. Signs are now to
be seen in many shop windows giving special
prominence to the fact that they carry home
manufactures. The clothing and shoe bust
ness has responded with rush, and the two
clothing-houses and the shoehouse that are
now doing the biggest local business did not
cut any particular figure two years ago, but
have jumped right to the front on the single
argument extensively advertised through the
newspapers that their shoes and clothing are
manufactured in California. A few years ago
there was little, If any, ready-made clothing
made in this State. Now the bulk of it is made
here, and at Eastern prices. And this is so in
scores OF lines. California manufacturers are
duplicating Eastern qualities and prices and
the people are meeting them royalty with de-
mands for goods that bear the impress of the
local producer.-Pacific Typograph.

ANOTHER WRECK.

The great difficulty in obtaining news
concerning the wreck of the Bawnmore on
the Oregon coast has not made the cause
OF the disaster clear, but if the overlooking
of her deck had anything to do with it we
have repetition on reduced scale, of the
Colima wreck. At the time the Bawnmore
left this port THE CALL pointed out the ex-
traordinary disregard of safety which char
acterized her loading. On her spar deck,
exposed to the winds and serving to catch
all that came her way, were bulky and
heavy objects, including a dozen street
cars, tugboat, several thousand feet of
lumber and other things. Besides weight
ing the steamers deck they were q chal-
lenge to the beam winds which are con-
slant on this coast As wind obstruction
such load might prove even more dan
gerous than by reason of its weight.
Whether or not this deckload was dis
charged at some northern port before the
steamer started on the southern trip the
early dispatches do not inform US. 1t is
notorious that general feeling of uneasi-
ness pervaded the water front when the
Bawnmore sailed with her heavy deck
load, and that her wrecking was fully pre-
dicted. The audacity of such method of
loading was rendered all the more promi-
nent by the recent occurrence of the Colima
disaster.
We shall await full news Of the Bawn-
more wrecking with much interest. The
perils which attend navigation on this
coast are easily avertible. but it may re-
quire more Colima and Bawnmore ex-
periences to convince our lawmakers that
due regard for life and property calls for
the placing of some restrictions on the
greed of steamship companies.
