What the San Francisco Papers Say
of the Convention.
The San Francisco papers have the fol-
Lowing to say with regard to McKinley's
nomination.:
The Chronicle (republican) There were
other worthy candidates. but any other
nomination would have been a mistake
For the last sixty days 1t has been mani
fest that he was the choice Of the repub-
lican electorate by an overwhelming pref
erence. and the convention has simply rati-
fled the pronounced will of the party in
placing his name at the head of the ma
tional ticket. The friends of silver cannot
be ignorant of the fact that Mr. Mckinley
is not owned by Wall street. and they may
be assured that white metal will be kindly
treated by him. He has always been
friendly to silver. AS their servant, not
their dictator, will he enter the White
House. and their behests will be needed
whenever the general judgment is mani
fest. $50
The Call republican): 1t Is an ideal tick

emergency and the need of the country as
we'll as they suit the desires and the tenn

these soldier candidates whom the republic
can party delights to honor. His is the pa
triotism Of war, well as of peace He
was as prompt to defend the life Of the re-

able that Mckinley was not the choice Of
the great republican states. The failure Of
these to agree upon a candidate gave the
democratic states. which will send him no
electoral votes. an opportunity to force him
upon them. The most eloquent Significance
OF the situation is that his candidacy will
fail to arouse that hearty enthusiasm in
the republican states which would have re-

THE YARA YARA STROKE.


1t Was Brought From Australia md
Resembles COrneIrs.
The New York World says of the west
erners' stroke in the recent Wisconsin Yale
freshman race:
When the University of Wisconsin chal-
1enged the Yale freshmen it was looked
upon as joke. 1t was absurd to think
that a university with a boating history
two years old could hope to dc ANYTHING
with Yale and the Bob Cook stroke. But
the men from the Mississippi valley said
they meant ii. and SO the race was ar
ranged.
The badgers arrived in New Haven last
Monday. They went TO Lake Saltonstan
which is five miles from New Haven, and
began to paddle around. The Yale row.
ing men went out to watch them.
They saw strong. vigorous set of men,
who seemed to lack beef When they
heard that the average weight OF the Wis
iting crew was 154 pounds the Yale men
whistled. The wise Yale men saw men
with long arms and stout backs. upon
which lay long, lean muscles, instead Of
being gathered in chunky punches.
Little but Mighty.
The men looked very small in their boat
interest. which speedily gave way to a
superior smile.
''What kind of stroke do you call
that?"' asked the Blues.
Its the Yara 1ara stroke" replied
the University Of Wisconsin man serious
ly."
That is really the name OF the stroke
Andy O'Day says so. Andy is the coach
of the Wisconsin crew. 1t is the stroke
which he learned when he was a MEM
Der of the Yara Yara crew of Australia,
which was never beaten.
Andy O'Day has grated his Antipo-
dean stroke on western muscle and pluck
and the result is crew that would prob
ably be dangerous in any company.
The Wisconsin crew showed yesterday
that ii had no business racing against
freshmen. 1t should be in the varsity
races at Poughkeepse.
For the first eighteen or twenty strokes
Wisconsin was pulling at the rate of
thirty-eight minute. Yale started with
forty, and yet in those first twenty strokes
Wisconsin gained half length.
Winners From the Start.
1t was apparent FROM the start that
these wild westerners had everything
their own way. And then the sharps
began to study the Yara Yara stroke
which was making monkeys Of eight
young Yale men rowing the Bob Cook
stroke.
The Wisconsin men explained. The oar
is whipped into the water and damned
up against it hard. 1t hits the water ali
the time until the finish. Then the stroke
is eased off and the Glade leaves the
water smoothly.
The hands are moved swiftly from the
chest. but not whipped away, and then
the recovery is slow and smooth. The
Wisconsin men say that the work ia done
in the leg drive. and the boat is driven
along steadily; that she shoots and runs
instead OF being lifted and checked.

editorially TODAY:
The ticket nominated by the national
republican convention at st. Louis yester-
day will prove a strong one in the manu-
featuring section of the east and in all
localities where the financial question Is
not understood. 1t is essentially the rich
mans ticket. 1t nowhere will have a
strong hold on the masses of the people If
elected next November it must be through
the power of money at the polls. The &C
ton of the convention In adopting the
financial plank of the platform was weak
unpatriotic and impoitic. 1t will give the
democratic party the opportunity of a
century to ally itself with the interests
of the whole people, while the republican
party must stand as the protector of the
small class of rich men in the money lend
