THE CALL SPEAKS FOR ALL.
All hall Mckinley.
The platform suits the people.
Harmony is the watchword now.
"
The convention did its work well.
AS goes California so goes THE CALL.
ii was victory for straight politics.
The delegation is one the State can be
proud of.
We asked for a stem winder platform
and we got it.
Sacramento was storm center, but San
Jose is an aurora borealis.
There is no uncertainty about the money
plank. 1t means business.
There are no complaints heard in these
days of nothing in the papers"
Mckinley, protection and free silver
coinage make good combination.
Martin Kelly has been dropped into
cavity, but he never will be missed.
Every step toward woman suffrage is
step toward purity at the ballot-box.
The platform is broad enough and strong
enough for all loyal Republicans to
stand on.
The woman's suffrage plank is first in
the platform, and will not be last in the
campaign.
The voice of the Senate is the first in
peace, the first for war and the last for
coast defenses.
San Jose might as well make Queer
Lilian's reign permanent thing and be a
paradise forever.
Indiana is evidently willing to give Har-
rison chance to guess again on the Presi-
Dental conundrum.
The full report of California's gold prod
net has never been told. We are richer
than the records show.
The action of the convention will uncork
Republican enthusiasm, but it will prove
corker to Democracy.
Inc campaign Tor protection should
make Californians more earnest in sup
porting California industries.
Politics and festivals make combina-
tion sufficiently stimulating to give the
whole State a cocktail atmosphere.
The second Mrs. Harrison knows no
reason why she should not be the lady of
the White House as well as the first one.
Cleveland has already become something
of back number, and public attention
turns away from him for the coming man.
Neither those who see the Healdsburg
fete, nor those who see the San Jose rose
carnival will envy any other crowd in the
State.
Auburn is not straining herself for a car
nival, but she has gladdened her people
with one Of the best flower shows of the
season.
We can count on the delegation to ad-
vance the interests of California at st.
Louis and maintain the cause of the
Greater West.
Kruger is making the British telegraph
lines not only score diplomatic victories
for him. but furnish him with evidence
for gaining more.
Judging from the comparative degree of
public interest in the two events the Chi
cago convention will hardly be sideshow
to that at ST. Louis.
What each nation would like most Just
now is to see two other nations get into a
naval war and put the modern battle-ship
to a test before any more are built.
The motion for an investigation of the
bond deals moves slowly, but it may yet
reach the White House in time to find
Cleveland out by finding him at home.
There was, of course, good deal of
seeming discord at Sacramento while the
party instruments were getting into tune,
but now comes the triumphant harmony
