INSULTING COMMUNICATION.
San Francisco Merchants to the State
Tax EqualizerS.
Members of the Board Express Their
Opinions OF the Merchants
Association.

At meeting Of the State Board Of
equalization yesterday morning Chalr-
man Morehouse requested secretary
Coglan to read the communication re-
celved some time ago from the Mer-
chants Association of San Francisco In
order that the Board might decide what
action to take.
The letter was dug up" and proved
to contain a resolution denouncing the
members of the board in strong terms
for raising the assessment or san fran
cisco and demand that the board give
reasons for it's action.
When the reading was finished the
wrath Of Equalizer Beamer boiled over,
He said that a communication couched
in such ungentlemanly terms was not
entitled to any answer, after the aSSo-
citation had insulted the Board in the
way it had. The association and San
Francisco Board Of Supervisors had
been asked to come up here and present
their case, but had never put in an ap-
pearance, although they had plenty OIL
time to do so. He scored Taylor Sc
verely for remarks made In his San
Francisco speech, in which he had prac-
tically called the members OF the board
criminals and intimated that it was bet
ter to say nothing of the way IN which
the San Francisco delegation that came
up last year prevented the assessment
from being raised.
Mr.. Beamer said he was perfectly will
Ing that Mr.. Taylor should make public
everything connected with the affair.
He thought Mr.. Taylor must have staid
out too late at night while here, and laid
his headache in the morning to the
board instead of himself. The people of
San Francisco, he thought, had better
pick out some other man to elect for
Mayor and send Taylor to his hog ranch
in SolanO.
Chairman Morehouse said the San
Francisco officials and the association
had been afforded every chance to be
heard, but had declined to embrace the
opportunity, although 1t was extended
for two weeks. Instead they had put
Mr.. Chesebrough, member of the
board, in the position Of having to de-
fend them against his fellow-members.
They could have had an explanation by
appearing before the board at the proper
time. He was tired of sitting on the
board and having citizens made to think
he was wrong, when he knew he was
right.
Equalizer Arnold also expressed his
cation, but Equalizer Chesebrough had
little or nothing to say.

go on all over the body. The only way
to get rid of consumption is to work on
the blood, make it pure, rich and whole
some, build up the wasting tissues, put
the body into condition for fight with
the dread disease. The cure of consump-
ton is fght-a fight between sound
tissues and the encroaching germs of
disease.

fights on the right side. It drives the
germs back, forces them out of the body.
1t will cure o8 per cent of all cases of con-
sumption if it is taken during the early
stages of the disease. It's first action
is to put the stomach, bowels, liver and
kidneys into good working order That

AGITATOs RECORD.
What James Cairn Simpson Says
of II.

Referring to the Agitato incident at
the recent State Fair. James Cairn
Simpson, the veteran turfman, says In
the Breeder and Sportsman:
The "Horseman" contains q violent
attack on the official occupying the
stand at Sacramento when Z:O9 was
hung out" and afterward changed to
a quarter of a second slower. Ana
with good cause for disapproval l nave
endeayored to obtain the reasons for
the change, and Mr.. Hackett, who was
clerk of the course, gives the following
explanation:
"One of the timers made the heat
200 and placed these figures on the
board. When the other timers were
crossing from the timing stand on the
inside Of the track to the judges stand
which after many years of controver-
sy has been placed on the right side
the figures caught their eye. These
two reported that one Of the watches
showed 200 2-5, the other 2:O9 80,
and in accordance with a majority of
the chronographs the time was cor
rected, as might be expected. There
are many stories afloat, nearly all of
them in opposition to the change of
time.
Under the circumstances and the
vital Importance Of the question, 1t will
be well for the Pacific Board of Appeals
to make a thorough investigation.
Should Agitato be entered in a 2:1O
class, 1t is nearly assured that pro-
test will be entered, and, in justice to
his owner, and what is of vastly greater
weight, the opprobrium must be re-
moved, or, if guilty of suppression, the
parties at fault punished.

ON TRIAL.
rlrs. Ann Elliott, the Alleged Pro.
CureSS.

In Judge Hinkson's court yesterday
the trial of Mrs. Ann Elliott-the wo-
man arrested by Special officer Dan
Healy OF the Society for the Prevention
of Cruelty to Children for subjecting
little girls to shameful abuse-was be-
gun. District Attorney Ryan is con-
Quoting the prosecution, and the woman
is being defended by Charles T. Hughes.
The jurors selected to try the case
are: James McKenna, grocer; j. NJ.
Henderson, retired; Thomas L. Acock,
retired; James Murphy, barber; A.
Walther. retired: w. E. Graft, plumber;
E. Hageman, butcher; G. NJ Schumach-
er, cabinetmaker; w. II. Devine, gro
Ger; Peter Schulp, farmer; G. A. Burns,
contractor; Aaron Core, farmer.
The case is being tried with closed
doors, which Is very proper owing to
the character of the testimony At the
preliminary examination it was shown
that Mrs. Elliott had induced little girls
to visit her den, where they consorted
with low characters who went there for
that purpose.
Some Of these children are of very
tender years, but there are older ones
who testified to overtures made to them
by Mrs. Elliott to become inmates of
a house of prostitution that she wished
to establish for the exclusive patronage
of Chinese.

"There Is one sort of enthusiasm that

Republican Convention Of 1854. and
that is the enthusiasm Of confidence"
True 1t is that which means most
among the American people when the
measure of a candidate and the propo-
sitions for which he stands is taken.
Mr.. Edmunds said in 1884 that the
candidate to awaken the right kind or
enthusiasm must be one who will stand
for whatever has been honest and OF
good report in our national history,
and for whatever has made for econ
omy. financial wisdom, clean politics,
and the integrity of national lie. ABOVE

the sober Judgment and approval OF
the people: and thenceforward he Will
stir them to the only enthusiasm, my

", Wages DO not always rise or fall In

On tia whole, then, they suffer more by

consequently a greater interest than
any other In the establishment of a

was not spoken by a Republican, but by

A HOME LESSON FOR HIM.

Mr.. Bryan is opposed to protecting
the material industries Of the people.
He so declared on more than one occa-
eion in Congress. He believes, doubt
less sincerely believes, that freedom of
trade with the victory to the successful,
Is best for the consumer.
Let US see what free trade doctrine
has done for his own State, Nebraska.
1t has closed down since the Wilson
German bill, which he helped to frame,
three large wooden factories and ruined
the sheep industry; 1t has cut off 60
per cent Of the business of the savings
banks Of Nebraska; the. depositors in
Nebraska in 1892 were 27,012, with
S5,477 ,572 to their credit Now there
are only 11,S70 depositors, a falling off
Of go per cent, because protected in
oustries have been grievously assailed
by the Wilson-Gorman bill and reduced
to low-water mark. OF course other
causes contributed somewhat to the
falling off, but assuredly silver was not
one Of them, since before 1892 the
operation of conditions so far as sill
yer Is concerned were the same In Ne
braska as after 1892.
In 1892 Mr.. Bryan said in a speech
IN Congress:
The cities of Lincoln and Omaha have
grown more rapidly in the last ten
years than any manufacturing city In
the East
That was under system that he now
denounces as a crime. But let US see
what happened after 1892, with the
Wilson German tariff In force, strang-
ling home industries and opening the
gates widely TO foreign goods such as
we ought to make and can produce at
home. This is what has happened :
a5, ZAP Nebraskans have ceased to de-
postt In the savings banks; Omaha has
suffered In numerical strength and de-
sirable population and industries have
been closed down and lost to her Lin
coin, Mr.. Bryan's home, has suffered
o great deal more, in fact it has ap-
preached dangerously near to bedrock
In decline Of business and manufac-
tures- 1t is not at all singular that in
none OF his speeches In 1896 does Mr..
Bryan refer to the prosperity to which
he alluded SO eloquently in 1892

in the confusion of anyone on such
subject. 1t is altogether too serious and
grave matter for that. We believe that
Mr.. Bryan is conscious of the unpat-
riotic, nay, the traitorous character OF
the plank he attempts to defend. We
believe that as publicist he knows 1t
to be wrong, dangerous and disloyal.
We know that Bryan sat within the
hearing Of Senator Hill at the Chicago
convention, When the New Yorker
sought to have that plank amended and
begged the convention not to commit
itself to such doctrine. Mr. Bryan saw
Mr.. Hill coughed down; he heard the
derisive yells with which his sugges-
tions were met; he knew that the plank
was put in to satisfy the demand OF
radicals Of the Altgeld and Tillman
stripe. When, therefore, he defends 1t
on the stump his defense is necessarily
weak. But politicians sometimes put
in motion forces they cannot control.
If elected, Bryan will find that to be the
case in this matter. The people Will
therefore not take the chances. They
will construe the offensive plank ac-
cording to its plain and obvious mean
ing. and give it no Interpretation that
requires in turn apology and eXplana-
ton
