Oakland Office San Francisco Call,

1Ns
 The principles of blackboard cam paigns" seem to have taken a firm hold of Alameda County politicians and of all the host of office seekers from those who would like to be Governor down to the man who would consider himself lucky with a town marshals deputyship there Is a general desire to impress the voters with the idea that long hair, slouch hats, seedy looking suits and unshined boots and unshaven faces with unkempt hair are necessary to insure success in this era of politics.
 pr. George Pardee, evidently taking his cue from Governor Budd, whom he some what resembles, has set the fashion for this county. The doctor is known to pos sess diamond or two and to have at least one nice looking suit of clothes. It IS also believed that he has at least one pair of patent leather shoes and new hat, but there has been nothing within the past three months to indicate that the doctor possesses any of these. Every after noon as he walks up Broadway he wears a veteran looking overcoat buttoneu up to the chin, a slouch hat, with the brim turned downward rather than upward, suit strongly suggestive of 'hand-me- downs" and as to gloves, he never wears them, probably because his hand has to go into his pocket so often to pass out Next in order in the Broadway parade is Assessor Dalton. MT. Dalton is not poor, but many poor men cut more
  sessor. The slouch hat, the greenish black suit and the absence of anything suggestive of wealth are equally appa- rent. MT. Dalton even goes the doctor one better, for whenever possible he links his arm with some gentleman from the country and undoubtedly makes vote before parting at Twelfth and Broadway. This easy-going, il-fellowwellm style of department is also followed by Sheriff White, who sees more men in Oakland. Deputy District Attorney J. w. Stetson, one of the tallest and most inn posing looking of candidates, is also con- Verted to the "buckboard'' principle of politics. He has cultivated stoop that robs him of six inches of his height, and he meanders up and down Broadway in a manner not the least suggestive of the military training he received at the university.

Sweet Peas in Profusion.

The State Floral Society entertainment at 234 Sutter street yesterday was well appreciated by lovers of flowers. It was a special sweet pea exhibition and a lec- ture by Lester L. Morse of Santa Clara, who illustrated his remarks by frequent references to the long tables covered with the flowers named. The purpose of the occasion was to demonstrate the improve ment of the variety and compare the new varieties with the old. The flowers were placed on two tables in the form of a huge cross, and every shade and color known could be found in the 80 varieties exhibited The attendance was large. and the remarks of MT. Morse were listened to with much interest

 Schooner folar Bear.

SEATTLE, June 10.-Latest advices from the north indicate that the ship Sterling has gone to pieces on a reef in Bristol Bay, Bering Sea. She ran aground on May 20, and in two days was almost a total wreck.

 After the accident the schooner Polar Bear went to the rescue of the Sterling and took aboard all the passengers and crew.

The enlisted men of the First South Dakota Volunteers are about ripe for a declaration of war on the regimental com missary.

The much talked about January boom In
stocks did not begin on scheduled time to-day.
In It's place there was continuation Of tho
dulness and irreguarity which characterized the
dealings in the closing week OF 1897. In the
majority OF issues the tendency was toward a
lower level Bear operators were helped by pes
simistic interviews by two railway presidents
on the rate situation, by an advance in call
money rates to per cent and BY the absence
OF public support. The local transit stocks or
traction stocks as they are now called In Wall
Street, were strong until the late dealings. when
they declined In sympathy with the general list.
Sugar Refining after an advance OF per cent,
lost part Of its gain. This stock and Pan
handle (Pittsburg, Cincinnati, Chicago and st.
LOUIS were leading strong features and were
among the few Issues that closed above Fridays
last prices. In the Granger group Burlington.
St Paul Rock Island and Northwestern were
sold down on an average Of per cent. and the
general railway list was correspOndlngly weak.
Despite the fact that the president OF the ST.
Paul company in an interview Is quoted az say
ing that rates on competitive business are at a
point where II is doubtful whether there Is any
profit in H." II Is noteworthy that the Western
roads are presenting handsome returns OF earn
ings, and that In grain traffic alone the deliveries
by the leading companies In 1891 make the best
showing in the history OF the companies Pes
