The San Francisco Team to Compete
Against the Oakland Men
Selected.
The rifle match between ten men of the
San francisco police force and an equal
number of the Oakland force is exciting
considerable interest in the two depart
ments.
The match will take place at Shell
Mound Park next Saturday afternoon,
commencing at 1 O'Clock, and after it is
over the teams will be entertained at a
banquet.
The final practice of the San Francisco
men was held yesterday afternoon at Shell
Mound, and the men who will com pete
were selected. Their names are given &C.
cording to their average score and are as
follows: Smith Carr, O. G. Phillips, Ser
geant Nash, P c. Peters, Harry Hook, w.
w. Wilson, Thomas A. Atchison, George
f. Mulcahy, ]. III. Finn, o. B. Merrick.
James Foley and John Fleming. The two
latter are reserve men.
They are all crack shots, either with the
rifle or revolver, and there is every conf
dence felt in the department that the
other fellows across the bay will be de-
feated.

FARES TO SAN RAFAEL
The Railroad Commission Will Make an
Investigation in the Public's
Interest.

Railroad Commissioner Stanton stated
Yesterday that he was making an investi-
CATION into the conditions of passenger
business on the San Francisco and North
Pacific Railway with view of ascertain
ing how the fares between San Rafael and
San Francisco might be reduced.
"This is matter he said, "in which
we do not care to take immediate action.
The Donahue road has always been re-
garded by the press and the people as a
popular road. and even in this matter of
reducing the fare from San Rafael it was
the president who made the first move.
HE wanted to make the reduction, but
The San Francisco call., 1896-03-22

was enjoined by the other road So it
would hardly have been 2ecessary for the
commission to think of official action in
the premises if more railroad litigation
had not been instituted. The line is in my
district, and | am gathering data upon
which to establish basis for reduction OF
the rates. There are many factors that
govern rates, and each of these should be
carefully considered.
For instance, if the Dnnahue road was
carrying half as many passengers as cross
the ferry to Oakland, it could well afford
to reduce its fares. But with a limited
patronage IL is doubtful how far railway
company may go in lowering the fares and
rates. 1t certainly cannot make such a
low figure as the road with large pat.

This is the case with the Donahue road.

have driven her from the coast, but the
French troops cannot reach her in the
mountain businesses of the island, and she
is thus able to hold her own. Mamea will
never be conquered until roads are built
throughout the island.
The Naval Reserve monitor Camanche
will be open to the public to-day. "The
boys were busy all of yesterday putting
shape for the expected visitors. The
steamer Caroline will make regular trips
from Mission street and the launch Amy
will run from Folsom street. The Naval
Reserve launch will also make hourly
trips, so there will be ample accommoda-
tion for everybody.

from Yokohama yesterday. She is the
handsome brigantine Behring, and has
come here in ballast to load a general
cargo for the Russian Sealskin Company.
From San Francisco she will go to Beh-
ring Island and thence to Kamchatka to
deliver stores and collect the furs that
have been secured during the season.
After calling at Vladivostock she will re-
turn here to winter and will make the
rounds again next year.
The steamer Kotik, now in port, is also
under the Russian flag, and this is prob
ably the first time in forty years that two
trading vessels flying that flag have been
together in this bay.

having been built in Scotland last year.

when the Noyo struck her. Six of her

ldmber was jettisoned and 10000 feet

OF the water. The Noyo has her bow stove
in and will take long time to repair.
There will be an interesting fight over the
placing OF the blame. as one captain ac-
cuses the other. The Inspectors of Hulls

THE CONTRAST.

From now till next November
every Republican should have his
armor on. A contest is being waged
between the forces of commercial
prosperity and commercial dishonor.
The future of America depends on
which way the election turns. The
humorous part of the campaign will
be brought out rs usual. Cartoons
of candidates and politicians will
cause the comic papers to sell. Pro-
fessional jokers will portray the &C.
centricities and incongruities of our
political life. The demagooue will
stalk abroad in the land and make
harangues, from the emptiness of
which it might be surmised that
there ale no great questions before
the nation.
But there are. The Democratic
party is making an insidious attack
upon the finances of the country.
The free coinage of silver means
nothing less than universal disaster.
Government cannot legislate the price
of wheat; neither can it decree the
worth of silver. Every argument
that can be advanced for the free
coinage of silver applies as well to
the free coinage of iron OF horsehide.
The advocates of silver show how
weak is their foundation when they
lose all reason under the sound of
bombastlc words. Should Bryan
be elected, this country would pass
through period of darkness which
the shadows of the war could not ex-
ceed. Every honest, thoughtful!
American should look upon the COM
ing election as one of the most mo-
mentous IN our history.
Not being content with the at.
tempt to overturn our finances, the
Democratic party makes war upon
our industrial system 1t prefers
the laborer of Europe to the toiler of
America. 1t wonld rather see the
American farmer suffer for want of a
home market than see him sell his
products at a fair figure.
The Democratic party has had a
career of uselessness and 1ncompe-
tence; but it never in its worst mo-
ments sought to do such things as it
is attempting now. Instead of the
party of Jefferson. Jackson and Til
den, it has become the home of an
archism, fanaticism and freaks.

These make up Bryan, and they are
all he is. And yet the American
people are asked to choose such man
as their chief magistrate in prefer
ence to a statesman like Governor
Mckinley, who served many years in
congress learning the ins and outs Of
national legislation; who ruled a
great state as its chief officer for four
years, and who has reached an age
in life where he is steadfast in pur-
pose and possesses training and abil-
ity to penetrate the truth, no matter
how darkly hid. The nomination Of
Bryan IS travesty upon American
craftsmanship.
