The work of the Fifth Congressional
District Republican Convention at its
meeting yesterday is shown in the fore
going lines. There were no opposing can
didates and the nominations were made
by acclamation.
TREY i. Ford made a graceful and
strong address when placing Mr.. Loud's
name before the convention, and Charles
NJ: Shortridge seconded the nomination
in vigorous address. -. -.
Mr.. Loud placed himself squarely upon
the platform and directly pledged himself
to vote and work against the adoptlen. of
any funding bill.
When the motion was put by the chair
man, Alva Watt, TO adopt the Republican
National platform of 1896 as the platform
= of the convention Charles NJ. Shortridge
moved the following as an amendment:
Resolved, Thatwe are opposed to the funding
OF the debts due the Government by the Pacific
railroad companies and we pledge our candi-
Qate TO Congress TO NOIo aSdIuSb Ill u1edsUrcS
looking to that end.
The amendment and the platform were
adopted unanimously with q great burst
OF applause.
After the selection of John D. Mckenzie
of Santa Clara as secretary OF the conven-
ton Tirey L.. Ford took the platform and
addressed the convention as follows: -.
Mr.. Chairman. and Gentlemen of the Con-
vention: I am here to-day to perform pleas
. ing duty to personal friend. That duty be-
comes the more pleasing from the knowledge
that in the performance OF ii shall be enabled

Tho crimson glow OF sunlight falls
Along the monumental walls
Where still In faded pomp are read
The name and virtues Of tho dead.
Yet from yon efiigy OF knight
The craven name has vanished quite.
No word remains, but stories toll
That he who sieeps fought true and well !;
In kindness swirl. in vengeance slow,
A constant friend, q courteous foo,
Who partly fought for love Of fight,
But chiefly for the love of right.
To Holy Land he rode away;
Seek thou holy land today.

Seek thou the armory Of love
He won on earth poor renown;
Win thou ON earth loves fadelesa crown,

IT CANNOT BE DONE NOW
Reforms Begun by Superintendent
Anderson Continued by Marshal
W. w. Bausman.

In former years numerous scandals pre-
vailed in the Public School Department,
especially relative TO the annual school
census and the appointment of teachers.
1t was alleged, upon seemingly good
grounds, that there was altogether too
much politics in the department, and that
teachers and census marshals were
selected for political reasons rather than
for their fitness to teach or their executive
ability to take an accurate census of the
children, and 80 save the department
thousands of dollars and the residents and
taxpayers of San Francisco from great
deal of unnecessary annoyance. Happily,
now the schools seem to be virtually out
of politics, and the City governmental
least the School Department is more
notable for the purity than the corruption
of its administration.
The public, doubtless, has not forgotten
the existence of the so-called though old
Board of Education" the disgraceful sales
Of teachers examination questions and
the gigantic census frauds of 1888. In that
memorable year E. G. Hildebrand, Dem
ocrat, was the Chief Census Marshal, and
the record which he made was q most
notorious one, necessitating the retaking
OF the entire census, at cost of some $4,000
W tnc Olty. 4HO IcSultS, IuOuRu, were
well worth the expenditure, for the most
glaring frauds were unearthed by the IN
vestigationS of J. w. Anderson, who was
then Superintendent of Schools, and if
Hildebrand had not decamped the State
before filing and swearing TO his report he
surely would have been sent to San Quen-
tim. In those Gays 1t was the fashion to
stuff the returns, SO as to secure big
share of money from the State apportion-
ment. The post of Census Marsha1-salary,
S. a day-was a political sinecure. No
attempt was made by the marshals to take
Il correct census, or to swear to their re-
turns. All they had to do was to 60 into
corner grocery and fill up their books
with false and fraudulent entries.
Since the time of Superintendent An
derson, or rather of Marshal Hildebrand,
greatly improved system has prevailed.
For the last four years, especially, the CEN
sus has been taken under the experienced
supervision OF William w. Bausman with
the most satisfactory results. The story
Of the frauds of 1893 is forcibly told by
SUPERINTENDENT Anderson In his annual
report for that year he says:
We have long been impressed with the fact
that for many years nothing even approx.
mating to correct census of the children of
the City has been taken. Last year (1SS7)
when the census was taken we had neither the
knowledge nor the experience that WAS requi-
acter of the census, and as all the reports of
field work and that of the Chief Census Marshal
appeared to have been properly made out, we
passed the report Of the latter to the State su.
perintendent.

language, and it was absolutely necessary
diaus should be secured.
"Whom did Washington, Jefferson and
the rest pick out for this mission ?" asked
Father Yorke. "Were they afraid that a
Catholic would not serve liberty? Were
they afraid OF the Roman collar and the
habit OF the priest? No. Their minds
were too broad and liberal for that. They
picked out Catholic who was priest,
and Jesuit at that-John Carroll. who
was Bishop of Baltimore, and sent him to
Canada to negotiate with the French
Canadians, and those negotiations were
successful.
"Again at the critical period of our Civil
War, when it was feared that the Govern
ments of Europe might recognize the
Confederate States as belligerents and that
the revolution would act disastrously to
the cause of the Union, do you think that
Seward and Lincoln were afraid of the
priests? When the French Emperor
Napolean III was ready and anxious to
recognize the South in order that he might
be able to set up an empire in Mexico,
when his message recognizing the South
was already set up in type in
the Office of the London Times
ready to be published as soon
as the news should be received that he
had delivered it, who was it that stopped
his hsnd? Lincoln and Seward had sent
over from New York not some of the
patriots who are to-day going around pro-
tecting this country for salary, not some
of those Orange and Canadian patriots
who have left their country for their
country's good and for this country sor-
row-no; they chose to go to the front on
that important diplomatic mission that
great and good man, the Archbishop of
New York, John Hughes.
Whenever you examine the patriots in
their patriotic garb you may see the
orange sticking out in the rents of the red,
white and blue, and when you hear them
accuse the priests and bishops and Jesuits
of being disloyal, you can always bring
this argument in-the names of John Car
roll and John Hughes.
"Those men who make the charge of
disloyalty against Catholics forget the ser
vices which the Catholic laity rendered to
this country during her wars
Here the speaker told of the result of an
investigation by committee appointed by
The San Francisco call., 1896-05-23

the British House of Commons as to the
constituency of the American armies at
the time of the Revolution, wherein it was
reported that one-fourth of the American
army was made up of native born Ameri-
cans, one-fourth of English and Scotch
and one-half Of those men who in the se
DAYS are proclaimed to be unfit for office
because of their birthplace and because of
the blood that flows in their veins-one-
half of that army was made up of natives
of Ireland.
At this stage of the lecture a man in the
audience exclaimed, ''That's liel" but he
was drunk and thought that he was cor
roborating the speaker, as was afterward
sscertained.
Father Yorke misunderstood the remark
of the inebriated individual and declared
that he was willing to lay 500 on the table
in proof of his assertion that such a report
was made to the House of Commons. The
inebriate in the meantime had fallen
asleep and snored approval OF the subse-
quent proceedings.
The next subject touched upon by Father
Yorke was that of the present talk about
coast defenses. against a nation whose
red and bloody flag has scared the world
we are building steel-clad navy and
erecting coast defenses; not against poor
Catholic Spain, not against Catholic
France, but against that Protestant coun-
try. England.
when we see a battle-ship like the
Oregon, enter our beautiful bay, with our
glorious old flag floating from her mast
head, after having beaten in speed every
thing on the sea, we feel the greater pride
that American genius could conceive such
work; that American skill could CON-
plete it, aud that she is devoted to the
defense of American interests. And when
we look upon such splendid battle-ships
