RESPONSE bility for municipal government
would simply be TO remove from such gov
ernments any kind of responsibility what
ever. If good citizens do not like the way
in which their party is managing the af-
fairs OF their city they should either purify
it or join the opposition party. Political
degeneracy cannot be reformed by the
fusion OF discontented people from both
sides. Such fusions only afford means
by which men who shirk the primaries
can excuse themselves for neglecting their
political duties. or else provide means by
which dissatisfied office seekers can hope
to obtain an Office which they could not
gain through responsible party organiza-
ton.
Mr.. Lauterbach illustrates the futility of
fuslon movements, even when successful at
the polls, by the present condition of
affairs in New York. There is no organized
party responsible for the reform adminis-
tration, and consequently any success it
may achieve will inspire nobody to further
efforts. Enthusiasm, in fact, is chilled in
that city, and the whole reform movement
is in process OF disintegration. From this
great and conspicuous example it can be
seen that as method of municipal reform
non-partisan politics is failure. As Mr..
Lauterbach SAYS: Honesty and efficiency
IN political reform and public administra-
| tion can best and most easily be accom-
plished through honest and loyal party
organization whose principles shall per-
meate its ranks from top to bottom, and
whose responsibility shall extend from
center to circumference"

tie wardrobe that ever mortal monkey pos

little wardrobe that ever mortal monkey pos
sessed.
His dress suit is made of costliest broadcloth,
with silk. His walking costume is of heavy
English tweed, and when you see Drummer
with his cap perched jauntily upon his head
and walking stick in his hand you have a
vivid impression of having seen something
like 1t before-probably upon a TRANSATLANTIC
liner.
His pajamas are of the lightest finest Chi
nese silk, and the monkey has become so ae-
customed to them that he refuses to go to
sleep wi thout them. The bsth-robe, which is
OF some feecy material, soft to the touch,
pleased Brummel so much that he actually
learned to take bath every morning for the
pleasure of feeling it upon his back.
OF course Brummel has valet to look after
him, and you may depend upon 1t this valet
earns his wages. There is no monotony in his
life. His first task in the morning issto run TO
BrummePs little bed and see If Brummel is
still alive. With BrummePs inordinate fond
ness for eating everything that shines, from
hand-mirrors to silver hair brushes, this is al
ways problematical. The owner, however, is
very fond of the little fellow, and spares
neither trou bic nor expense to make him COM
Portable.
Taken all in all, the clothes for this monkey
cost as much, suit for suit, as the clothes his
master wears. No man we meet on Broadway
wears finer or more expensive garments. In
fact one can't buy finer. Mr.. Vanderbilts
no more and no less.
Brummel's position in life is truly enviable.
He has all that he requires and has no respon-
gibiliIies
The San Francisco call., 1896-02-11
NEWS FROM WASHINGTON.

Congressman Mcguire furnishes THE
CALL with the interesting news that IN all
likelihood the Vanderbilt and Gould IN
terests have deserted the funding scheme
with the intention OF. being bidders for the
Union and Central Pacific roads when
they are offered for sale by the Govern
ment in foreclosure of its mortgage, as
these two interests desire TO secure a
through direct line from the Atlantic to
the Pacific If they have done so much
as deserting the funding bill they have
certainly done more, as open antagonlsm
to it.could not make their position any the
worse with Mr.. Huntington.
While it is deplorable to reflect that any
railroad interest is able to affect Congress
sional legislation, it is something to have
so grave fight as this arise from the
greed OF great railway-owners. Indi-
vidually they can be kept under reason
able control. 1t is only when they form
com binations that they are great menace
to the country.
The surmise that the Gould and Wander
bilt interests have arrayed themselves
against the funding measure seems reason
able. As the dictators of Eastern railway
concerns they exercise an enormous power,
and it is in the nature of things that they
would like to extend their empire to Cali
fornia. Railroads work in combination
only when by so doing they can advance
their individual interests; the line is
drawn at foregoing advantages to be se-
cured by independent procedure.
Mr.. Mcguire is undoubtedly right in be-
lieving that if these Eastern interests
secure the Union and Central lines the
Southern Pacific will have genuine compe-
ton. This will come of necessity rather
than through choice. That is to say. the
Eastern interests would be in position to
dictate to Mr.. Huntington, and would en-
joy the tremendous advantage of a popu-
lar support in California resulting from a
reaction against Mr.. Huntington's tyr
amy. AS the Eastern interests would
not carry the burdens of inflated and dis
honestly contracted debts which furnish
the Southern Pacific with an excuse to
levy exorbitant charges. they would make
lower schedules with a view to the settle
ment and development of the State, and
compel MIR. Huntington to make his rates
accordingly. In any event, the Southern
Pacific monopoly would be destroyed, and
that fact alone would make many things
possible.
