Some Of the newspapers are engag-
ed in the pleasant pastime of select
ing delegates to attend the republic
an convention in ST. Louis. They ap-
propriately place Senator Proctor at
the head Of the list Col. Proctor pos
sesses all the qualities necessary to
head the delegation. AS to the 9th
ers. it will be we'll to select some who
have plenty of money and will pay it
out freely. Remember that the wa
will be we'll to take along large sup
ply of "Apollonaris." If the dele
gates can be properly assorted and
gagged it will be we'll to select such
as will let this honor suffice, that they
may not be lurking around in the way
hereafter, seeking to be governors
and that sort. The situation III re-
gard to sentiment and preference is
probably about this way. Candid men
believe that Harrison would make a
perfectly reliable and honest presi
dent. from whom nothing can be fear
ed and in whom the country would
be as safe as IN the hands of any man
in the world. Reed is strong, mag
nificent, but untried in the greater
things Of craftsmanship. Mckinley
is loved for his amiable character, his
ability and desire to help the masses.
Allison and Morton are thought of
only as compromise candidates, who
possess in themselves wisdom, ability
and good judgment, which would
make them grand men in the presi-
dental CHAIR They are not the men
the public will shout after, however,
and it will be well to remember that
the great and good will not always
win as many votes as the mildly bad,
but the popular. Fortunately there is
no lack of worthy candidates.

The New York World, democratic,
has been having a great deal of tribu
lation with the democratic admins
tration during the last few months,
and has been particularly exercised
over the issue of bonds, and the plac
ing of them in the hands of a syndi-
cate to sell. When it became neces-
sary a short time since to have a
hundred millions more to bolster up
the government, and Mr.. Carlisle and
President Cleveland began to specu-
late on their chances of getting the
money, the World clamored for a
popular loan, When it was decided
to try the popular loan method that
paper went into ecstasies and claimed
that it was it's influence which
brought the popular" loan. The
World took a million dollars as a
starter, and got word in response to
INQUIRIES that various banks in the
country would take SIC, 1000, 900 more.
The World is entitled to much credit
for it's effort to place the money in
the treasury and to put the bonds in
the hands of the people.

Matters between England and Ger
many are getting pretty close to
crisis If the English and German
troops are within striking distance of
each other at Delagoa Bay or else
where in Cape Colony or any part of
the South African republic, it will be
hard to prevent a collision, if the
temper on either side is anything such
as was shown in London yesterday.
An Eaglishman's blood is slow to be
reused, but when it is up, he is very
bull dog for holding on, as we many
of us know from personal experience.
We inherit some of the bull dog our
selves, but with an added quickness
in temper and action. Nobody on
this side of the world wants to see a
war between any of the great ma
tions over there. Itwould be a tre-
mendous mistake at this stage Of en-
lightenment. There should be some
milder method Of disciplining the
ebulIient young Emperor than in
blood letting; diplomatic spanking
would do very well.-Record,

The matter of taking some steps for
the adjustment of Pacific railway
troubles is about to be again taken up
in Congress. 1t is of the first impor-
tance that it be considered in liber-
al and business-like way. The gov
ernment has the power to enforce it's
lien, by satisfying prior liens at least,
and taking control of the whole sys-
tenn. 1t might not be unwise to take
the matter squarely on that footing,
and, if it does not wish to operate the
road, lease it to the best bidder it can
get, as the city of Toronto did with it's
street railways, after buying them.
Maine, it is said, of all the States, in
proportion to its population, has the
largest share Of Congressional honors.
Vermont, however, is not far behind.
Senator Morrill, is chairman of the
finance committee, Senator Proctor
heads the committee on agriculture,
Congressman Powers, the one on Pa
cific railroads and Congressman
Grout is on the appropriation and
war department committee. This
handsome recognition of the State is
result of the fact that Vermont has
a habit Of sending to Washington her
best sons and keeping them there till
they have acquired an experience in
legislation that brings them to the
front rank

TO FLY A MILE IN THE AIR
Forecast Official Will Launch
Kites Under Auspices
of "The Call"
Mr.. Harmon Proposes to Send Up
Scientific Missionaries From the
Roof of the Mills Building.

In addition to the many attraction
offered the people of San Francisco to-day
will be novel feature from the roof of the
Mills building occupied by the Govern
ment Weather Bureau. From this coign
of vantage Forecast Official w. H. Ham
mon will make an experiment with several
new modelled kites just received from
Washington, d. G.
These kites have been made expressly
for San Francisco by Mr.. Potter of the
Weather Bureau Department. The model
upon which they are formed required ad-
dihonal strength in consequence of the
high wind in this City.
Mr.. Hammond ana his associate, Alex
ander G. McAdie, will send the first kite
into the air from the roof at o'clock this
morning and will continue running the
wire with his experiments until II o'clock,
thereby giving the thousands of spectators
who will be ont of doors an opportunity
of viewing Mr.. Pottor's model at a height
of mile in an easterly direction from the
top of a ten-story building.
1t will be the am mbition of Mr.. Harmon
this forenoon to surpass anything hereto
fore recorded in the kite-hying line. The
highest elevation made by any kite is that
recently reported to have been made in
Washington within the past few weeks,
where it is said the 5000 feet limit had
been passed, but those figures are not
taken as official by the authorities in this
City. The verified record however, of
400 feet, as made in New Jersey, is cred
tied, and TO pass this, as also the reported
Washington figures, will be one of Mr..
Hammon's ambitions to-day.
In breaking this kite-fying record the
experiment will be under the auspices of
the San Francisco CALL.
An experiment was made yesterday
afternoon at 4:30 o'clock, when the kite
was sent out for half mile, with wind
force of thirty miles an hour. Everything
worked most satisfactorily and the
Weather Bureau officials are confident that
they will achieve the honor of send
ing kite higher in the air than has ever
been done heretofore. AT all events the
trial will be made, and should a success
follow Mr.. Harmon will be pleased and
the people of San Francisco will be graft
fed TO learn that the attempt has been
made to penetrate the heavens with IN
struments that will inform them of the
kind of climate that the fellows up there
have to live in.

MALARIA And RHEUMATISM
From the Journal, Wilmington, ohio

On one of the fertile farms of the rich Ohio
Valley, seven miles from Wilmington, the
county seat of Clinton County, Ohio, and but
short distance from the small town of Melvin
their postofice, in cozy little country home,
resides John Arrasmith and his wife, Minnie.
A few days since representative of the
Journal drove out to Melvin to see them. In
the course of the conversation, Mrs. A. detailed
the facts of her cure:
Last July" said she, stfrom undue exposure
in my work about the farm, contracted ma
larial fever and rheumatism and suffered from
the illness greatly. / could not throw it off,
and although constantly attended by local
physicians continued to grow worse. In Sep
tember caught severe cold, which greatly
increased my other troubles, and taking TO my
bed there lay for months. The rheumatism
grew more aggravated, and for eightlong weeks
prior to last Christmas l was perfectly help
less, my limbs below the hips being as if para
lyZed and having no use of them whatever.
l could not help myself in any way, and was
not able even to turn over in bed unless nv
husband or some one else came and turned
me. Medicines which the physicians lef,
did no. good and nothing 1 could take
afforded any relief. / was discouraged and
feared that never again would / be up and
about the house. 1t was anything but
bright prospect, for was but 20 years old, had
been married only two years and my life was
before me and to go through 1t helpless
cripple, q burden to my fl ends, was fearful
fate to think of.
time TO time articles telling of the wonderful
cures which had been effected by DR.. Williams
Pink Pills. and had become impressed with
the cases where they had caused persons to
walk and recover who had been as helpless as
was. Consulting my husband, we determined
to give them trial. So he drove into
Wilmington, and going to the drug store
of George W. Brown bought three boxes
of the pills. l began taking them
Immediately on his return. That was
about the first of the present year. Before the
first box was gone began to realize that was
getting better, and by the time l finished the
second box the pain with which l had been
suffering for nearly six months and the dis
ease which had made me helpless for eight
weeks disappeared entirely and / got up.
took the third box of the pills and have never
felt twinge of rheumatism since, and l am
doing my daily work and feeling as well as
anybody"
To confirm the story Mrs. Arrasmith made
the following affidavit:

sIEBE's BANK SUITS.

La Societe Franchise Obtains Writ OF
Certiorari in the Matter.
The last bank suit against Assessor
Siebe to prevent him assessing the corpo-
ration's personal holdings on the basis OF
the Bank Commissioners report, was filed
yesterday. La Societe Franchise d'Eparg-
nes ct de Prevoyance Mutuelle IS plaintiff
in the case.
The French Bank claims that on April
10 it paid the Assessor the taxes on It's
property as valued by that corporation,
and received a receipt in full therefor, but
that since then the Assessor has assessed
other property of the bank, which is not
assessable under the law, amounting in
all to $34S, 727. The additional tax would
be $7846 Sc.
Mr.. Siebe notified the bank that unless
this amount was paid before noon yester-
dav he would seize its personal property
to satisfy his claim. The bank, therefore,
prayed that a writ of certiorari be issued,
in order that the action of the Assessor
might be reviewed and that Siebe be en-
ioined from further proceedings in the
matter until after the case had been de-
cided.
Judge Trout granted the restraining
order, and the hearing will be had next

dates-An Ex.Naval
Officer.

1t has been announced by President
Sonntag of the Society for the Prevention
of Cruelty to Children that G. P. Welch,
out of thirteen candidates, has been
chosen the successor of General McComb
as secretary of the society. He was in
dorsed by thirty naval officers, several Of
ficers of the regular army, besides by
many of the leading merchants of the
City. Altogether 142 signatures attested
to this genteman's ability and worth.
Mr.. Welch is a naval officer on the re-
tired list, being graduate of the Annapo-
lis class of 1868 Among his classmates
are numbered Executive Officer Ingersoll
of the Philadelphia and Executive Officer
Wadams of the NJ onterey.
Mr.. Welch was born in Charlestown,
Mass. in 1s47, but has lived IN California
twenty-five years and has been resident
of San Francisco for thirteen years.
His friends say that he is particularly
adapted to this position, requiring as it
does executive ability, tact and firmness
in emergencies, as in all these qualities
tions Mr.. Welch is attested to be favored.
The future secretary is man OF great
popularity among his comrades, and has
been an officer IN the George II. Thomas
Post. G. A. R., for eight years.
Mr. Welch expressed himself last night
as highly gratified at the honor and con-
fidence conferred upon him by his friends.
'.What is particularly gratifying to me, !"
said he, ''is that no place where l went
was refused Endorsement. / believe that
| have a taste for this kind of work, and
shall certainly exert every effort to up
hold all the principles and requirements of
The Office"
In 1876 the Society for the Prevention OF
Cruelty to Children was organized in this
City and so great has its sphere of useful
ness become that it attends regularly to
750 cases each month. The present presi-
dent.is Charles Sonntag.
