Logos of the eastern PHILOSOPHERS and
the great breaths Of Brahm Of Indian
lore. The self-conscious intelligence
back Of the creative word is the unknow-
able Of the modern material scientists,
and the Almighty" of whom Job wrote
that 1t was impossible to find out unto
perfection by searching.
Abbot b. Clark lectured at Blavatsky
hall last night on the evidences OF re-
incarnation. He said in part: I'm the
golden age, and even in the early days
of Christianity, no evidences were
needed, for all men realized reincarna-
ton as an indisputable fact. Men speak
now of being immortal, but they forget
that Immortality means without be-
ginning or end. Genius is one strong
proof of former experience. How else
account for it, except as the knowledge
gathered in former lives? Reincarnation
alone can explain the apparent injustice
Of environment. We are here but for
the evolution, growth and perfection Of
the soul, and as we conquer our fall
ings we return to earth life that much
stronger and purer, until at last we
shall have learnt all the lessons that this
world can teach. Then, and not till
then, can we pass on to grander heights
of evolution"

Fond Desires
WHAT FRANK GOULD SAYS
A FEW MIDDLE-oF-THE-RoAD
PoPULIsTs MAY DISSENT
Thomas v. Gator Has Committed Po-
litical Suicide-A Scramble
for Axtel1's Job

Among the distinguished visitors dur
ing the past week has been F. D. Gould
Of Stockton, who, however, has his law
office in San Francisco. Mr.. Gould is q
Democrat from wayback. He is not an
old man, but he has always taken a
prominent and an active part In the
management Of the affairs of the party,
having been at one time at the head of
the organization in California. Mr.
Gould Is rated as O very keen, practical
observer, and wherever he Is known, his
opinions have weight. He declares that
the Republican party in California next
year Is doomed to certain and newt
able defeat, and that nothing the ad-
ministration can say or do can prevent
It.
Mr.. Gould states that. Judging from
tho leaders he has seen and talked with,
he thinks that a union Of the elements
opposed to Republican rule will be ef-
fected upon fair and an honorable
basis. There are some leaders, he adds,
in the Populist party who will endeavor
to run a middle -of-the-road ticket. but
the votes that ticket will get. Mr.. Gould
opines would go straight to the Repub-
lican ticket IL there were no middle-of-
the-road Populist aggregation asking
for support.

Republican Opportunity Lost

lost. The tide Of popular Indignation
