THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.

We can think of no event at present which
could possibly occur that would be fraught
with more beneficial results to this State, and
particularly to the Republican party, than the
holding OF the National Republican Conven-
ton at San Francisco in 1896. 1t would bring
together the representative men of the nation.
The wise men Of the East, the West, the North,
the South, would meet together in the Eden of
America. 1t is impossible to estimate the
benefits that would accrue to the State by such
movement. The San Francisco CALL, that
enterprising sheet, is worthy of all praise and
commentator for its able efforts in this direc-
ton. 1t has touched the keynote, and every
Republican and every Republican newspaper
in the State should join in the song and put
forth every effort in their power to bring the
movement to a successful termination.-Lom-
poe Journal
The San Francisco CALL is making noble
fight for the city and State in endeavoring to
secure the Republican National Convention of
1896. From the encouraging kilograms re-
ceived from Eastern statesmen and politicians
there seems to be chance that the CALLS
efforts will be crowned with success The press
and people OF California should assist the CALL
in this matter, as the convention would bring
thousands of representative men to our State,
many OF whom have not been west of the Rocky
Mountains.-St. Helena Star.
The agitation of the CALL for selection of
San Francisco as the place for holding the next
Republican National Convention commends
itself to all who are loyal to the Pacific Coast
as well as to others, east of US, who have re-
sided in Chicago and New York during the
summer months. Keep up the cry until it is
heard and answered by the national COM
mittee.-Sausalito News.
The CALL, which is a favorite newspaper out
side the city, is quite enthusiastic over several
things Since it has laid off its old barnacle
dress and staid ways and come out into live So
ciety it wants to speak right out in meeting all
the time. First it offers to head subscription
with $4,000 to bring the next Republican
nominating convention to San Francisco
Mendocino Beacon.
The CALL suggests that San Francisco should
try to get the next National Republican Con-
vention, which will meet in July, 1896. 1t
also offers $4,000 toward paying for the ex-
pense of preparing for it. This is move in
the right direction, and we are pleased to see
the CALL take the front in all movements for
the upbuilding of our State.-Lakeport Bee.
By capturing the national conventions of

two ways. She can keep her sand lot calamity
