To avoid the entire devastation of
Rhode Island by smallpox p) the
General Assembly, by advice OF the
medical profession, ignoring IT'S ale
glance TO the Constitution OF tho
United States, true statistics against
vaccination, science, reason, ana com
mon sense, enacted a law that every
little, innocent child, before it shalt
be allowed to go 10 the public schools,
shall have q morbid blood poison,
from sores on diseased persons or dis
eased animals, put directly into the
pure blood of its healthy body, with
out any means of knowing the malig-
nancy or effect of the poison before ~
enters the system, and for which
there is no antidote; poison that
produces real disease. And the
vaccinators say that the operation
must be repeated several times during
life, to prevent the disease from
being eliminated. Thus every citizen
must carry poisonous disease in his
body all his life and bequeath it to
his children and his children's chill
dren.
Notwithstanding, vaccination neither
prevents nor mitigates smallpox III

the vaccinated more susceptible To
that disease. In a vast number OF
cases it fills the system with the
most fatal and loathsome diseases of
man and beast--cancers, syphilis,
tuberculosis, leprosy, scrofula, ETC.
and is an unmitigated curse. over
forty new diseases have appeared
since vaccination. Vaccination was
tah lN,, 1xyn np1
ner, the pretended discoverer, who
obtained $780, 000from the British Par
lament, was an outrageous swindler,
and its evils having been concealed
and denied by the profession, makes
it an enormous fraud. Evidently it
is the most absurd and pernicious
scheme that ever entered the brain OF
human being. 1t has caused, di-
rectly and indirectly, a vast number
of horrible deaths and lifelong dis
eases.
After understanding vaccination,
no intelligent, unbiased person can
believe in it, and il is great mystery
how any one can be so blinded as TO
believe in it; nothing could be SO
perfectly foolish and pernicious. No
one has q right 10 have q child
poisoned; it is crime to allow it, and
it is high time that parents, guardians
and employers should realize the
enormity of the practice. All chill
dren are allowed TO 90 TO paro-
chiai and private schools, churches,
Sunday schools, lectures, concerts,
theaters, railroad cars, steamboats,,
circuses and OF er promiscuous
crowds without being vaccinated.
The citizens of the State, who shall
have got their eyes open upon this
subject must see that no man here
after shall be elected 10 the General
Assembly who will not pledge him
self to vote to repeal that tyrannicd
law.

DYING TO SERVE THE PEOPLE.
Six Democrats Want to Be Registrar.
Markley Drops Out.

A local Democratic philosopher who
came down on yesterday evenings train
from the capital cast light on the fight for
the Office of Registrar as follows:
''The contest is now transferred to Sac
ramento. Andy Clunie was there to-day,
and with his brother the general laid siege
to the executive. Sam Braunhart is also
on the ground, backed by the demands of
the Democratic legislators. Jim Flynn,
ex-County Clerk and chief of the Iroquois,
has had his friends out all day, both in
Sacramento and San Francisco, circulating
petition. AS San Franciscans sign all
petitions without question, no doubt Mr..
Flynn's San Francisco petition will be
sent up to the Governor by a river boat.
1t will probably resemble a bale of hay"
General r. P. Hammond, once of Maine
but now of San Francisco, whose relative
mines for gold in Africa, and who thinks
his title would dovetail admirably with the
salary of Registrar Alex. Vogelsang, the
Apoll of the bar, would not attempt to
dodge the job, if Mr.. Budd should throw
it directly at him. Mr.. Daggett would
ike to get the plum for his chief clerk
Barnett, whom he imported from Sacra-
mento. Buckley and Rainey are for any
one that their friend Daggett wants.
Markley of the Mint was in the struggle
for few days, but has withdrawn.

result of the contest, but Clunie appears to

a VALUABLE ACQUISITION.
Snn Ecanclsco Nalna Letter

San francisco NelCS Letter.
Charles NJ. Shortridge has bought The
MORNING CALL paying therefor $3.50, 600 in
open auction under order of court. That
is the actual price, which was more than
the disagreeing present owners were will
ing to pay. The transfer has created re-
markable interest and more or less con-
sternation, for apart from its effect on
daily journalism in San Francisco, it is as
sumed, because Mr.. Shortridge is not sup
posed to have so much ready money of his
own in hand, that he has been 'backed"
by some one, and hardly rich man in
town has been LETT out of the surmiseS
which have been made. 1t is little
singular assuming that Mr.. Shortridge
did not have sufficient money of his OWN
that his ability to borrow money to
any amount on straight business propo-
sition has not received more attention. 10
secure such loan he would have THE CALL,
the San Jose Mercury and other valuable
properties of far greater value than the
sum which he has paid for The CALL. In
addition to that is his history of success
a very remarkable one in every sense and
of kind that seems to adhere to the
Shortridge family. 1t is the success which
comes to brains, energy, shrewdness, in
tegrity and invincible pluck. Mrs. Clara
Foltz, his sister, and Samuel NJ. Short
ridge, his brother, have distinguished
iIlcIl1otlhCS LII NlA1CNbIO1l.
There is probably not a capitalist in San
Francisco who would not be willing to
lend Charles M. Shortridge 100000 on
far less security than would be required to
cover his purchase price for THE CALL.
Those who have watched his career in San
Jose are familiar with his aggressive indie
pendence and his scorn for a ''collar." He
is an absolute stranger to timidity, fear,
time serving and all kinds of subserviency.
1t is too early yet to speculate on the poll
teal aspect of his invasion-for it is an in
vasion. 1t is more interesting to foresee
that he will rouse THE CALL from its slum-
Der of sixteen years. and put it at least on
a level with its rich and powerful rivals.
He presumably brings to THE CALL hardly
more than fifth of the money that each
of its rivals can employ, and it remains to
be seen to what extent his remarkable per-
sonaEty can overcome these odds if so fool
ish thing as newspaper war should oc-
cur. Ae is a fighter to the tips of his
fingers, and he has never lost battle.
Some of his methods are closely allied to
those of the Examiner; that is, ne believes
in sparing no expense to secure the best
writers and the best news, and he believes,
further, in the wisdom of encouraging a
feeling of freedom and individuality
among his writers. In other respects
particularly in giving reliable and I'M
prejudiced news-he has the traits of the
Chronicle. THE CALL lost its prestige be-
cause it was mean and narrow in every
conceivable way; but it will be so no
longer. The News Letter cordially well
comes Mr.. Shortridge to San Francisco,
believing he is valuable acquisition.

THE REGENERATED CALL"
San Be,narftno St,n.


The SAN FRANCIsc0 CALL of January APP
peared with the name of Charles Nj. Short
RIDGE nailed to the masthead as editor and
proprietor, and with pretty numerous
paragraphic and several somewhat volum-
tnouS editorial announcements of the
policy. aims and intentions of the new
management as 10 the conduct of the
paper. In these, perhaps, there is some
what excessive parade of the editors indi-
vidualitv, but this may be excused as an
incident to an introductory bow. There
are indications of vigor, breadth and
healthy ambition of which the old lnStltu-
ton was sadly lacking.
The keynote of THE CALLS opportunity
was struck in these paragraphs:
sit is our purpose to make THE CALL not
q metropolitan journal only, but news
paper for all California; and we will en-
courage, advocate and assist every enter
prise undertaken in any part of the State.
I'VE care nothing for any differences
that may possibly exist between San Fran
cisco and the State, but we care a great
deal for every industry and every enter
prise that bind them together with mu-
tual interest"
If THE CALL will adhere to the idea ex-
pressed in these paragraphs and if,the new
editor, with all OF the ability he is known
to possess will in good faith and persist
emily exemplify that idea, a grand future
of influence and prosperity cannot but be
in store for him and it. The great need of
this State, and more especially the great
need of San Francisco, has been a metro
politan journal manifesting some interest
in the affairs of the interior cities and
counties, other than to exploit their sensa-
tional events and salacious scandals.
The Sun greets THE CALL under its new
management with hope that it will feel
and be big enough to realize and stead
lastly act upon the principle that the in
are bound up in and promoted by what
ever helps and retarded by whatever in
lures any portion of the State. In this
way THE CALL can supply a long felt want,
car do a world of good for San Francisco
and the State, and its future of paramount
influence in the field of Californian jour
naiism will not be a matter of conjecture.
God grant that it may be equal to its op-
portunity.

HICKS UNSUITABLE THIRST.
A 0ountryman Who Lived High and
Paid Nothing,

Through his fondness for oyster-cock-
tails and kindred mixtures H. S. Hicks of
San Luis Obispo County has brought him
selfwithin the grasp Of the Superior Courts.
Coupled with his fondness for the highly
seasoned bivalve was an antipathy to pay
for what he consumed, and as a conse-
quence he has now to show cause why he
should not pay a note which is held by
Mrs. Mary Harvey, who keeps a saloon
and grocery on Mission street, near First.
This note is all she has to show for debt
of $495.
Most of this money was spent over Mrs.
Harvey's counter for oyster-cocktails, but
some of it represents money which Hicks
borrowed from her. She says Hicks used
to stand out on the sidewalk and invite
every one who passed to come in and
sample his favorite tipple, and as he never
paid cash the debt grew rapidly. The case
has been continued

HALEY HAS WITHDRAWN.
He Thinks 1t Useless to Proceed
Any Further.
In One Hundred and Three Precincts
He Gains One Hundred and
Fifty Votes.

The contest for the county clerkship is
over, and Curry now holds sway without
thought of further trouble. 1t was decided
upon yesterday morning, soon after the
recount opened before Judge Hebbard.
Matthew Sullivan, attorney for Haley,
asked that certain precincts of the Forty
fourth and Forty-ffth districts be counted
before others, as he thought he could locate
fraud more easily in that way than if the
recount should proceed in the regular
order. This request, however, brought
forth decided protest from the opposing
side, and also some extremely caustic
words from the court.
The request was promptly denied, and in
doing so Judge Hebbard said that if the
recount proceeded at all it should proceed
through the precincts in regular order.
The contestant had been allowed to depart
from this order once and the fraud ex-
pected did not appear. He must therefore
proceed in order if he went on at all.
Continuing, Judge Hebbard said there
had been enough fraud discovered on both
sides to keep the Grand Jury busy for a
year and to fill San Quention with election
cases.
There was a whispered consultation be-
tween Sullivan and Martin Fleming
Haley's chief deputy, after this oqtburst,
and at its conclusion Mr.. Sullivan an
nounced that he was ready to drop the
case. His chief has been put to consider
able expense, he said, and it was becoming
more and more apparent that any further
procedure would be useless. Without
further ado, therefore, the Registrar gath
cred up his ballots, the crowd dispersed,
and Mr.. Curry after being declared the
true and only County Clerk, and entitled
to his costs during the contest, went back
In all 103 precincts had been counted,
the changes being an increase for Haley of
$50 votes and an increase for Curry of 400
votes, or a net gain for Haley of only $50

CAMERON Is FOLLOWED.
Why Lawyer Beatty's Client Was Not
in Court.

When the case of D. J. Cameron against
Thomas was called in Judge Hunts court
yesterday morning the plaintiff was not on
hand. He was not in the corridors nor in
the City Hall, and finally his attorney, w.
A. Beatty, announced that Mr.. Cameron
was at home, and, furthermore, that he
was going to stay there until he could
select suitable bodyguard for himself, so
as to protect him from some one who had
been following him.
Mr.. Beatty drew pitiful picture of Mr..
Cameron and his deadly fear of this strange
man, who has been logging his footsteps
thus followed neither he nor his attorney
can understand. They do not know the
man, nor have they any idea as to his bust
ness. Judge Hunt gave Mr.. Beatty a
couple of days to find out what the stranger
wants and to allay the fears of his client.
