A HOME TRIUMPH,

1t has not been long since the CALL de-
plored the fact that in spite of the presence
OF many excellent woolen-mills in CaIifor-
MA the Police Department of San Fran
cisco used the product of French looms for
the uniforms of policemen. 1t is there
fore most agreeable duty to announce
that the Golden Gate Woolen-mills of San
Francisco have so clearly demonstrated
their ability to compete with French manu-
facturers as to cause their cloths to be pre-
ferred by the Police Commissioners The
proof was made very simply and easily
When the Golden Gate Company recently
complained that the Police Department
was discriminating against California
product it was explained that California
could not produce beaver cloth to equal
that of France. The company asked that
it be permitted to exhibit its beaver along
side the French article. No sooner had
this been done than the Commissioners
saw its excellence and adopted it without
hesitation.
The effect of this action reaches much fur
ther than the profit which the Golden Gate
Mills will secure from the sale of cloth for
some hundreds of police uniforms. 1t is
notice to streetcar and railway companies
and to all others throughout the State,
who require their employees to wear navy
blue beaver uniforms, that San Francisco is
producing a material which the Police
Commissioners have preferred above the
French, which hitherto has been regarded
as the best in the world. If all California
consumers of this cloth should follow the
example set by the Police Commissioners
the California weaving and dyeing industry
would be greatly enlarged by the demand
for this one article alone.
There is a still broader effect 1t is rea-
sonable to assume that if we can surpass
France in this one exceedingly difficult
product we can turn out other kinds of
cloth of similar excellence, and hence that
in most of the kinds used in the manufac-
ture of mems clothing we have an adequate
home supply that leaves no excuse what
ever for sending away our money to invest
in foreign products.

reservoir, which, like big mud-guard, en-
circles the hind wheel. The mixture of the
two gases enters the explosion chambers by a
tube leading to each cylinder, surrounding a
distributing shank or rod, which opens and
closes the admission valve at the time desired.
At the larger part of each chamber standing
out between two poles, an electric spark causes
the mixture of the two gases to explode. This
spark proceeds from an induction spool en-
veloped in an ebonite case raised above. The
current is furnished to the spool or
bobbin by Bunsen battery placed behind
and between the two wheels, and which swings
according as it is desired for the machine to
move or remain stationary. The small oil
reservoirs, which in the illustration are placed
half way between the spool and the battery,
are designed for purposes of oiling.
The forked arrangement, the extremities OF
which are noticed on each side, and at the back
of the hind wheel, is a kind of parachute
which, when it is lowered by the play of lever
placed under the saddle, permits the machine
the saddle.
The pedals only respond to the riders action
at will, !. e., at the actual moment of starting,
and the rider can regulate the action by turn
ing the handles in the direction wished.
The speed obtainable with this machine on
the road is fifty-ive kilometers an hour The
consumption OF oil is one litre for every forty
kilometers travelled. Enough oil is contained
in the machine for twelve hours journey.

competent business men, but when these pre-
cautions are taken we believe that any growing
community can well afford TO furnish the

featuring industry seeking place to do bust

We overheard a man say the other day that
he had the ability and the education to be
leading man in the community if only the OPP
portunity would present itself whereby he
could get a start. That man will never amount
to much because he does not realize that great
men are great simply because they themselves
make the opportunity by which they climb to
greatness.-Woodland Mail
Good streets good health and good times are
component parts of that public policy which
stands for improvement and results in pros
perity. The one is generally dependent upon
the other, and certainly is a prime factor in
the realization of either desirable end. Com
bined they give any place possessing them
reputation that is well worth striving hard TO
obtain.-Santa Cruz Sentinel.
Everything necessary for a festival or cele-
bration requires labor; the laborer and his en-

ton with these demonstrations. They serve
as school for the public in which sociability
IS taught in way more effective than any
other.-Chico Chronicle-Record.
The Republican party is the one that has
done the real business of our Government for
five and thirty years. 1t believes in protection
TO American industries, and silver is one of

Democracy is dong nothing but halloing. Let
us wait a little and see which will make the

1t is ABOUT six years since the hunt for site
for the new San Francisco Postofice began,
and final decision appears to be as far off as
ever. Such methods of conducting public bus
mess appear absurd, but what is to be done
when every business interest which may have
been antagonized is given unlimited liberty of
appeal? So long the loser is not willing to
submit to results we must go on this way

in their weed-overgrown condition are posi-

pride in keeping his property in presentable

extensive preparations for passing over a
stream before they see it often waste time,
energy and capital in arranging pontoons
or constructing a bridge only to find in the
end there is easy fording where the cross
ing is to take place. By the time the Ma
tional Convention meets it is more than
probable that all issues now before the
people will be SO well underst God that the
Republican party will need no elaborate
constructive ingenuity to devise a means
of dealing with them, but will find it pos
sible to march forward with unbroken
ranks along that great highway of saga
cious craftsmanship which leads not only
to party success but to the prosperity of
the Republic and the welfare of the people.
1t is not to be denied that this wise re-
solve on the part of the convention to leave
the problems of the future to the future
for solution averted action that might have
seriously compromised the well-nigh GER
tain assurance of victory in 1896. Had the
extremists on either side gained their way
resolutions might have been adopted that
would have led to dissensions in the ranks
and possibly even to factiona. divisions.
TO Colonel Trumbo and those who stood
with him in the contest against the gold
standard men in the committee on resolu-
lions the party owes much. These men,
though commonly referred to as repre-
sentatives of the West as distinct from
other sections of the Union, showed n true
comprehension of the situation in every
part of the country and broad-minded
conception of the best way of dealing with
it from the standpoint not of sectional but
of National policy and to them, therefore,
is the happy solution OF the difficulties
before the convention largely due.
The cause of free silver and bimetallism
will lose nothing by the liberal policy
adopted by its advocatesin the convention.
The party has been saved from even the
appearance of factional strife, and it has
been the Western leaders who were mainly
instrumental in saving it. They can go
into the National Convention next year,
therefore, with prestige increased by this
display of party loyalty and National
craftsmanship and be of great service in
overcoming any tendency there may be
among the delegates toward extremes in
either way, and thus aid in holding the
convention true to the sound doctrines of
protection and bimetalism as the funda-
mental principles of National Republi-
Canism

WISELY DONE.

vention of Republican League clubs at
Cleveland acted wisely and WE'LL There
are many reasons for this. The conven-
ton represented Republican clubs but not
the Republican party, and therefore had
no authority to speak for the party. In
addition to this, it assembled during an off
year. Fully twelve months must elapse
before the next campaign opens. In that
time important changes may take place in
the political situation, and any platform
drawn up now might be wholly inadequate
for the issues that will be presented then.

UP TO DATE IDEAS.

The Paris LIE Monde Illustre in its current
issue devotes some space to description of a
bicycle driven by means of petroleum motor.
The inventor is NJ. Millet, who claims for the
apparatus speed, durability and smoothness of
action.
The invention is thus described: 1.-The APP
paratus supplying the motive power is a rotary
one. 1t consists of five cylinders mounted on
the spokes of the hind wheel. In each of these
cylinders piston commences to move the
crank connected with the wheel at the precise
moment when the piston of the neighboring
cylinder ceases its work. AS in all petroleum
motors the action is produced by the explosion
of a mixture of air and petroleum gas. The
air is exhausted at the bottom of the machine
by means OF an exhaust valve, and then filtered.
The petroleum gas proceeds from gasoline

vironment will be employed. Not only
will all the residents of Humboldt County
be brought to the city on free trains. but
the ocean lines, which afford communities
ton to all points up and down the coast,
Will give special low rates Tor the occasion.
The difficulties under which this cele-
bratlon is undertaken show the grit ana
pubic spirit of the people and their deter
mlnatlon to make it q success. An EVIL
dence OF this feeling was the enthusiastic
meeting of $50 business men held this week
Tor the purpose of opening campaign OF
progress. The carnival is to serve as an
inauguration of O comprehensive scheme
by which the attractions and resources OF
Hum oldt are to be made known ana the
splendid natural resources OF the county
developed. That the people OF Eureka are
unanimous in their desire to accomplish
the best results is shown in the hberality
with which they are subscribing to the
carnival fund
Undoubtedly the cooperation OF the
Half-million Club of San Francisco will be
cheerfullY added to the efficiency OF
Eurekas efforts. This will mean SPECIAL
efforts to secure large excursion OF resi-
dents and visiting strangers in this part OF
the State. Eureka, by reason OF its having
no rail connection with other parts OF the
State, has been seen by comparatively few
Californians, and as it is entirely off the
line OF tourist travel the superb beauties
and boundless wealth of the region lying
BACK OF it have received hardly any atten-
ton at the hands of writing travellers.
Being so different from other parts OF the
State it is novelty, and is worth seeing
ON that account. For hunters, fishermen
and health and pleasure seekers, it is q
rare paradise, the noble forests of virgin
redwood showing the sequoia in all its
solemn majesty.
1t is inevitable that railroad will soon
connect Eureka with the bay of San Fran
CISCO. Until that is accomplished the at
fractions of Humboldt County must be in a
measure sealed against the world. This
is the great problem that its people are
determined to solve.
