The National Republican Convention

The National Republican Convention
session. It's expected that at least two
days will be occupied with the prelimi-
naries and that balloting will not begin
before to-day. There is every assurance
at this writing that the platform will de-
clare for sound money in unequivocal
terms. ANY other course would be sui
cidal. Rather defeat than surrender to
what would result in national dishonor
and widespread financial disaster. The
Republican party met defeat four years
ago on the tariff question, and the pre-
dictions they then made concerning the
Democratic free trade policy have been
abundantly verified. 1t hardly seems pos
sible that the people of this country de-
sire another such object lesson. Yet de-
structive as the Democratic tariff has
been to American industries, closing mills
and factories all over the country and
throwing thousands upon thousands out
of employment, the triumph of those
who are advocating a fifty cent dollar
would entail even worse consequences.
The mere agitation of the question even
now has checked the business revival
caused by the assurance of Republican
victory in November.
The development of Reed sentiment
since the arrival of the New England del
egations at st. Louis shows plainly that
with proper management from the begin
ming the nomination would have come to
Maine; and there are still hopes that the
sober second thought will prevail.
How contagious is a bad example! Here
was the Mayor of Belfast attempting to
usurp the functions of the school commit
tee in the appointment of a superintend-
ent and the fixing of his compensation:
| and now the Democratic Mayor of Boston,
Mr. Quincy, is trying to possess himself
of the functions of the school committee
of that city. The matter at issue in Bos-
ton relates TO the repair and construction
| OF schoolhOuses, and citations from laws
enacted in 1889 and 1895 give the schoo'
committee full power in these matters,
limited only by the appropriations; and
| they have been exercised without cues
ton from any quarter until the advent OF
Mayor Quincy. The question is one that
concerns taxpayers, for the Mayor pro
poses to expend 81, 800 600, under the di-
rection of paid commission, who are tc
/ receive percentage of this large amount,
| while the school committee in protesting
| against this extravaganza ''asserts that in
its opinion, if the appropriation be ex-
pended for the benefit of the schools
rather than for the exploitation of the
schemes OF individuals. the schools car
be put in good condition for about 500,
600" There is striking analogy be-
tween the two cases. In both cities the
school committees stand for the public
good and against ''the exploitation Of the
schemes of individuals.

The cleanest, brightest safest and really,

be safer. a few days ago prominent gen

the office of the Electric Company and said:
"Give me figures for wiring my house, and
want it done at once; no more lamps for me.
Last night a lamp tipped over and it came
SO near setting fire to the house and burning
nv children and take no more risks"
This is the sentiment of quite a number in
the past few weeks, who have ordered their
houses fitted with the perfect light.

that you want the best and safest light; send
for the Hawaiian Electric Company and tel
them what you want.

After the prisoners had retired DR.. Bun

he begged first to speak privately to his
wife. They all retired to distance as he
pulled her head gently down toward him
and fondly stroked her hair. Then for
some minutes he whispered in her ear,
and then allowed the doctor to use the in
lection.
Besides the reason given in the ante
mortem statement for the shooting it was
ascertained that Chin Lun Chez, who has
conducted a drugstore at 710 Dupont
street for the past thirty years, had loaned
Chin Kin Leon $500 to enable him to pur-
chase wife from among the celestial
beauties in Chinatown. This amount
back from Chin Kin Leon, but the latter
was not willing 10 settle, which had made
them bad friends.
In the meantime Chin Lun Chez had
notified Chin Kin Leon that unless the
money was paid by to-day the woman
would be taken from him and disposed OF
for sufficient consideration to satisfy the
claim of Chin Lun Chez. This threat
seemingly worried him to such an extent
that the services of A h Wah and All

called into requisition to settle the in
debtedness by Shooting Chin Lun Chez.

Pirri perform his amphibious act yesterday
afternoon, and they also saw G. w. Vosmer
go up in a balloon. Pirri rode down the
chutes on his bicycle, but in leaving it to
enter the lake he was not SO fortunate as
on previous occasions. His head struck
the bottom, ana when he emerged il be-
came necessary for surgeon to stitch up
a good-sized scalp wound.
Vosmer's balloon did not initiate as well
as it should have, lad as result he did
not rise high and was unable to cut away,
so he did not make the parachute leap. He
landed with the parachute and balloon on

gan for Violating Civil
Service Laws.
REPUBLICANS ARE AT WORK.
Veterans and the League of Clubs
Are Preparing for a Grand
Demonstration.

Although yesterday was the Sabbath,
the war among the angry factions of local
Democrats went on with upabated rancor,
the anger Of the Lanigan contingent rag
ing into fame whenever the hungry
spoils-seekers that infest it beheld the
vision of treasures slipping from their
grasp.
1T was understood at the outset" said
badly disgruntled Democrat of the Lani-
gan crowd last night, "that we were to
have a show at the Supervisors, but. we
have been swallowed by Rainey. The only
man Lanigan is sure of is Haskins. They
call Britt Lanigan man, but he is not.
He is as much Rainey's tool as any of the
others, and tie truth is the festive Sam
owns nearly all of them.
1.-THE Fire Department is, of course, be-
hind the Rainey ticket, engaged in boost
ing it along with all the energy possible.
You must remember that 465 out of 512 of
the Fire Department are Democrats, and
they are so organized that they do the
bidding of Rainey without question"
But some of The Rainey men think Lani-
gan has too much, not on the Board OF
Supervisors, but elsewhere. 1t is said that
he has too heavy representation ell Sc
where, and there are threats that steps
will be taken to report him to the Civil
Service Commission because of his often
sive politics.
In this connection it has been held over
Lanigan for some time that he is likely
to get into serious trouble by reason of his
meddlesome and active participation
in politics. The civil service rules pro-
hibit such conduct as has characterized
the conduct of Lanigan for some time
past He is known as bad type of polit-
lcal boss, and great many people In his
own party are growing weary of his con-
duct. 1t is not among the impossibilities
that he will be compelled. with some 9TH
ers in high authority in his department of
the Government, to give up local politics
eral position. These threats and many
charges.sand counter-charges among the
factions have made the local Democratic
situation anything but harmonious.
The silver Democrats are still bitter
against Phelan and his gold friends,
whom they say they cannot consistently
support. The wars among the Bourbons
are SO numerous that each days sun sees
the factions more hopelessly divided in
their march to defeat.
Republicans are working with vim for
their ticket. Cheering reports come from
all sources. The Onion Veterans Patri-
otic League held an enthusiastic meeting
at the Auditorium on Saturday night. The
following officers were elected:
