COAST COUNTRY FAIR.

To the Editor of The Post
Hulcn, Texas. June 20. ABOUT Two
weeks ago I confessed to the mothers OF
the coast country my inability TO prepare
suitable premium list for the baby de-
par,mont of the Fruit Palace. and asked
your counsel. II affords me pleasure to
state that many patriotic mothers re-
sronded, II helped me out OF a great die
iiculty. and feed under obligations TO the
promoters of this department. One lct-
ter which / received was referred 10 inc

election of the writer of the letter as. SUI
perintendcpt of the department.. Tho
writer was none other than Mrs. j. W:

TO BE DECIDED TO-DAY.
San Francisco's Pesthouse May Be Lo-
Gated Near Quarantine on Angel
Island.

Mayor Sutro received information from
Washington yesterday that the Secretary
of War is about to take action on the ap-
plication of the local authorities to have
the Pesthouse located on Angel Island
where the United States quarantine sta
tion is now situated.
when the subject was first broached,
after the citizens had protested against the
hospital being located within the City and
County, Congressman Mcguire took the
matter up and after seeing Surgeon-Gen-
eral Wyman of the United Statet Quaran-
tine Service telegraphed that the Secretary
OF War might grant the necessary permis-
sion to erect the Pesthouse on Govern
ment ground.
When General Forsyth heard OF the
matter, however. he protested that he did
not care to have his soldiers placed in
jeopardy, and so stated to Mayor Sutro
when the two officials held personal in
teryiew.
The proposition has not been given up,
however, and every effort is being made to
induce the Secretary of War to grant the
permit, in spite Of General Forsyth's OBJ
jections.

track. which was heavy, was all in his
favor. and from 81 his price was gradu-
ally rubbed to IL to 5. This latter heavy
play had the effect of causing the odds
against the "Wheer' to go back in the
books to 8 to 2. The race proved most
one-sided affair. When the barrier was
lifted Shields on Service made play for
the lead, which he secured, and the old
horse led the field merry chase, winning
in romping fashion bv four lengths in
1:49h. Rosebud got the place, a couple
of lengths before the hard-ridden favorite.
Fortuna, Dungarven and Monita cut but
little figure in the running.
It was a stormy day for favorites, and
the handicappers and form-players were
ties were Sea Spray and the odds-on Lo-
bengula.
Fourteen cheap selling-platers were the
first to go to the post in q five-furlong
scramble. Zoolein has apparently sadly
deteriorated as sprinter, for, ruling an s

former winning easily at the finish by four
lengths.
Third place was the best the favorite,
Early Notice, could finish in the two-year-
old dash at four furlongs.g The filly opened
at IS, receding to 2 to l. Torpedo, a 4

ming by length from Gordon.
The fourth race, at seven and half fur
longs, was decided over the inside course.

The weather was threatening and the
California Jockey Club had only fair at
tendance for its reopening day at the Bay
District track. The card was a lengthy
one, there being seven events down for de-
cision. The Gunst selling stakes over a
mile and a sixteenth, worth $500 to the

with Wheel of Fortune carrying but SO

Convention" said Secretary d. NJ. Gavl-
gan last night, I'VE will go right ahead
with the municipal campaign as the regu-
lar party organization. The local organ
lzafion has exclusive charge OF local affairs
and the State Convention has nothing to
do with it.
If the Junta people put up municipal
ticket and if they own the election COM
mission as they claim to do we Will
go into court and establish our right to
have our ticket put on the ballot as the
regular Democratic ticket. We have 2Zo
atfidavits and plenty Of other evidence to
prove that the general committee never
adjourned and that we are the regular
organization. Watkins will never go on
the stand and say on his oath that the
committee adjourned sine die.
"The action of the State Central Com
mittee in recognizing the Junta was not so
hard blow as some people imagine, be-
cause we stand just where we stood before.
We took the stand in advance that the
committee had no jurisdiction, and we an
nounced that we put in an appearance
simply to protest against any action being
taken or to accept any fair offer OF COM
promise if one was made"
Some of the Buckleyites turned Webster
loose on the Junta yesterday. The
''pollies" have long been wondering what
"Junta" meant anyway-that is, generally,
not in San Francisco. James II. OBrlen
broke an engagement and hustled up a
big dictionary.
II found that the dictionary was right, }"
said Jim. "Here she is, and he displayed
again the paper on which he had copied
Noah Webster's wipe" at McNab, Rainey
and Daggett. What O'Brien had copied
for the Buckley archives was the follow
ing:
select council or assembly which delibe-
rates in secret on any affair OF government;
meeting or collection of men combined for Sc
cret deliberation and intrigue for party pur-
tiers.

James Mckinley, the Daggettite' men,
Der of the Junta's general committee and
night guardian of the Mint, dropped one
of the bits of political wisdom that fell
yesterday. The gentle old man filled his
pipe again and slowly said: 81 have seen
politics, sir, for these more than twenty
years. Men go up and are good and they
go down and are damned. It's all like the
wind. 1t blows from the east to day and
tomorrow it blows from the northwest.

that zephyrs from the south may come.
