ANOTHER VERSION.
A Washington Mans Story of the
Recent Ship.

Now comes the Woodland Mali with
It's explanation Of the airship mystery
1t declares that King Lee of Washing
ton, who is something of hunter as
well as politician, had wounded and
captured a huge pelican, and when il
was able TO soar aloft he turned it
loose with a japanese lantern tied to
one of its legs.
Occasionally, Lee says, the pelican
would squawk. and this was what some
persons heard who said the occupants
Of the airship were singing as they
passed over Sacramento.
This is pretty rough on the warblers
of the upper air currents.

THE PROPOSED LABOR LAWS.
Commissioner Fitzgerald Believes They
Will Pass.
He is Assured of Support by All the
Prominent Labor Organi.
cations.

During the last few days, says the
San Francisco Call" very encourag-
ing letters have been received by Labor
Commissioner Fitzgerald. They contain
information concerning the labor laws
which will be submitted at the next ses-
sion of the Legislature, and also on
the attitude of Senators and Assembly
men with respect to these laws in the
various centers of population in Cali
fornia.
Judging from the statements set forth
in these communicative the La Dor Com
missioner says that he is fully salts
fled that the Legislature will pass the
proposed laws in the interest of labor.
This, he admitted, was a pleasing con-
viction after his efforts in preparing
the different measures in behalf of
labor.
Il have received a letter from the
Labor Council of Sacramento whit h
says that the members elected from
that county to both houses will support
| the labor bills. l got another letter
from Los Angeles informing me that
the representatives from there were in
favor of this legislation. Two of the
men nominated by the Los Angeles La
Dor Council for the Legislature were
elected. Other letters have been re-
ceived from Vallejo and Grass Valley
stating that the men there are pledged
to support the laws framed for the ben
eft of labor.
Nearly all Alameda County is
pledged and the remainder are friendly
Twelve out of eighteen Assemblymen
in San Francisco and all but one Sen
ator are pledged to support the labor
laws as amended by the labor conven-
ton.
SO, as near as I can judge, there is
a majority in both houses pledged to
stand by labor in this fight Now, l
think that is a very nice thing
1T is the intention of all the labor
unions of California to call a mass
meeting or convention in Sacramento
if there should appear to be any danger
of the labor bills falling through This
convention would then make a stir and
its powerful influence would make itself
felt during the session of the Legisla-
ture, and if any representative in the
Legislature bucks against the bills he
will be eaten up should he ever again
run for office.
Labor is better organized in Califor-
MIA at the present time than in any
other State of the Union. The unions
are pulling we'll together; they are
united. Los Angeles has 800 men or
ganzed, and the number of organized
men in San Francisco must be close to
10000.

A few days since correspondent Of
the CONNER sial Appeal asked what
would be done with the votes cast for
Bryan and Watson, to which the Com
mercial Appeal made the following re !
ply:
Our correspondent will understand
that votes are not cast directly for the
candidates, but for the presidential
electors, Where the democrats ami
popIlists have a joint electoral ticket
Bryan would get democratic populist
vote, Sewall would if the ticlut car
ried state get the vote Of the demo
cratic electors thereon, and Watson
would get the populist electors vote.
Where, however, the popnlist put out u
seperate DOT of electors their votes f, +
Bryan would be thrown away unless
they carried the state. Sappose, for in
stance, each party should put out an
electoral ticket in Texas, and that the
Mckinley and Hobart electors should
get 1875, 900 votes, the Bryan and Sewall
electors 100, 900 and the Bryan and Wat
son also TO, coo. Although $40, coo
votes would be receive for Bryan, Nc
Kinlsy with his 1876, 0O) votes would
carry the state. The reason is that the
Mckinley and Hobart electors would re-
ceive larger vote than either the DEM
ocratic or populist electors.
This is point not clearly understood
by many of our readers and should be
carefully considered by them before
time to make out their tickets.

an hour or two later, both seeming dis

Dr. Holberg then sent for the propri

dation informed him that he and the
youne lady wanted to get married, but
that the affair must be kept secret at all
hazards. He said tn 1t he had been to
the Board of Health Office, but could
not get the license, and 1t was then Zoo
